Pinecone Cottage Tea House - The Tudor Hearth & Harvest: A Renaissance Afternoon Tea

About this event

“Here’s flowers for you; lavender, mints, savory marjoram; the marigold, that goes to bed wi’ the sun and with him rises weeping.”

William Shakespeare, The Winter’s Tale

This November, we invite you to step across the threshold of time. The Tudor Hearth & Harvest honors the rich culinary heritage of the Renaissance and Tudor eras, a time when exotic spices, fragrant waters, and sweet fruits were celebrated as the ultimate luxuries. We have meticulously researched and reimagined these historic recipes, from the grand banquets of the royal courts to the cozy kitchen gardens of the countryside, to bring you a comforting, late autumn feast. Sit back, sip, and savor the tastes of history.
