Radisson Blu, Glasgow

The flowers are blooming; the trees are budding and the birds have a twinkle in their eye.

Spring is knocking.

Welcome it in with today’s Big Deal on an afternoon tea with option to include a glass of Prosecco for two in Grahamston at The Atrium in Radisson Blu.

Afternoon tea

Part of the five star Radisson Blu on Argyle Street, Grahamston at The Atrium is a sleek, light-filled and quietly sophisticated bar.

The bar is gently themed around the story of Grahamston, the forgotten Glasgow village which was built over when the nearby Central Station was constructed.

As well as having a colourful back story, the bar has large window walls which make it perfect for people watching in the unlikely event of the chat running dry.

Option of Prosecco

Served between 1pm and 5pm, seven days a week, afternoon tea in Grahamston at The Atrium is a real treat.

Available on white or wholemeal bread, the selection of fresh finger sandwiches will include delectable choices such as the smoked salmon and cucumber or the roast chicken and tarragon mayonnaise.

The golden scones are freshly baked and served with rich, clotted cream and a naturally sweet fruit preserve.

The hotel’s chef de patisserie will conjure up a glorious selection choice of pastries and cakes with just the right amount of indulgence and a little sweetness to sugar the gossip.

Naturally, Grahamston at The Atrium has a fine selection of top quality teas and coffees for you to choose from as part of the offer.

Option two includes a chilled glass of Jeio Valdobbiadene DOCG Brut NV Prosecco to help keep your afternoon nice and bubbly.

Happy diners

Big Deals at the stylish Radisson Blu are always very popular and the hotel is a hit on TripAdvisor.

This is what a recent visitor thought of her afternoon tea experience at the hotel:

‘This was one of the best afternoon teas I have had. Lovely open sandwiches with four different toppings. Great scones with jam and cream or butter; lots of little cakes. All beautifully presented on a lovely stand.’

Spoil yourself

Tasty sandwiches, scones thick with clotted cream (and maybe a glass of chilled fizz) – if that sounds like your idea of a divine afternoon then make the most of this Big Deal.

It would be perfect for spoiling a family member or swapping gossip with a friend.

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, this Big Deal would also make Mum smile were it to be tucked into her card on Sunday.
