This special red, white and blue edition will commemorate the historic event with a live screening of proceedings alongside a feast fit for the King – think traditional coronation chicken sandwiches and quintessential British afternoon tea favorites, such as warm scones with lashing of jam and clotted cream.  The Roast by Bubbalicious will also be serving up the traditional Sunday roast dishes that they are known for. 

With British garden party vibes there’ll be both live musicians and kids’ entertainment on the terrace with free-flowing bubbles and G&Tea’s. The littles can also become British Bake Off competitors, a favourite of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, for the day with interactive cake decorating, bunting making and face painting.
