It’s the most wonderful time of year... for indulging! Sit back, chill and tuck into delish Afternoon Tea classics with a Mal twist, spruced up with a bit of festive sparkle. To top things off, Malmaison are including a glass of Champagne or festive cocktail – well it is Christmas!

Built in 1844, Malmaison Reading is the oldest surviving station hotel in the world, perfectly retaining the style and decadence of the golden age of rail travel.

Malmaison have re-imagined the classic Afternoon Tea menu. Festive inspired savouries include turkey katsu, crisp iceberg & mango chutney wrap. Scones are served with jam and clotted cream, alongside sweet treats with a seasonal twist such as festive chocolate tree and Viennese mincemeat tart.

Special dietary requirements are catered for, with alternative menus for vegetarians/vegans and for those with gluten and nut allergies. Pre-booking is required. Please specify dietary needs using the 'Special Request' field.

Festive Afternoon Tea is served with a glass of Champagne or festive cocktail and a choice of teas and infusions, including English breakfast, Earl Grey and Green tea with jasmine.

Available from 21st November - 27th December 2024. Afternoon Tea is served Friday and Saturday from 12pm to 4pm and costs £39.50 per person, including a glass of Champagne or festive cocktail.
