Princess Afternoon Tea at the Shankly Hotel

The Shankly Hotel is hosting a Princess Afternoon Tea on Thursday 29 October, a themed tea service set in the hotel's Bastion Bar & Restaurant in the city centre. It's a princess-themed take on the classic afternoon tea, so it's aimed at families with younger ones in tow rather than a quiet catch-up with friends. The Bastion is the hotel's main restaurant and bar, and it's where the hotel runs its regular afternoon tea service, which they pitch as a spot for hen parties, stag dos and other celebrations.

If you're heading in for the tea, it's worth knowing the hotel's other main spot: The Shankly Rooftop. It's the rooftop terrace bar, and unlike some hotel bars, it's open to the public rather than just guests, so you can head up there for a drink and look out over the Liverpool skyline before or after you've finished. It's a good way to stretch the trip into a full afternoon in the city centre.

On the practical side, the tea is £23.95 per child. It runs on Thursday 29 October at The Bastion Bar & Restaurant, inside The Shankly Hotel.
