Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Glasgow

Hailstones. Throngs of shoppers. Wrestling the tree down from the loft while it pokes you in the eye with a branch.

We all love Christmas but admittedly, it can be a wee bit stressy at times.

That’s why you need a special treat to look forward to during the festive countdown. A chance to unwind and soak up the Christmas spirit with your favourite people.

And what better way to do this than over a festive afternoon tea in Glasgow’s super stylish Marco Pierre White restaurant?

Today’s Big Deal for two or four people will include a very Christmassy selection of treats as well as a cheeky glass of mulled wine or fizz each.

Tipsy festive afternoon tea

Available until early January, this offer is for two or four people to enjoy a festive afternoon tea at Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill on Waterloo Street.

Your afternoon tea will be served on a classic three-tier stand. The menu is changed regularly, but is likely to include the following:

Savoury

Sandwiches on thick sliced white and seeded wholemeal bread:

Roast turkey & cranberry

Smoked salmon, creme fraiche & fennel

Honey roast ham, rocket, apple sauce

Traditional egg mayo & chive

Sweet

Mini mince pies

Mini Christmas pudding

Selection of cakes

Sultana scones with chantilly cream, rhubarb & ginger jam

Alongside your mulled wine or fizz (which can be swapped for a soft drink) a choice of fine tea or freshly brewed coffee is included.

You can enjoy your afternoon tea seven days a week right up until the beginning of January 2020. The question is, which of your fabulous friends are you going to take along with you?

‘Afternoon tea deal was great value in comfortable surroundings. Lovely restaurant and fab offer for afternoon tea. The sandwiches and cakes were fresh and tasty and staff were very attentive to our needs. I would recommend.’

The restaurant has also been winning admirers on TripAdvisor:

‘Fantastic. This is my number one favourite restaurant in Glasgow. Food is amazing, exactly what you would expect from a MPW restaurant. Excellent service, staff are efficient and friendly. Gorgeous decor. Can’t fault it, five stars from me.’

Christmas countdown treat

These days, festive afternoon tea is becoming as important a Christmas ritual as leaving Custard Creams out for Santa.

So why not treat yourself to a luxury spread with friends at one of Glasgow’s top restaurants?

Oh go on. You’ve earned it.
