Fancy a frightfully tasty treat this October? 🎃

We've stirred a little Halloween magic into the café.
Sip on a warming Gingerbread Latte or Pumpkin Spice Latte, pick up a spooky iced shortbread ghost or gingerbread mummy, and don't miss our new spiced pumpkin cake that's dressed for the occasion.

And if you're taking your drink away, bring a reusable cup from home, or borrow one of our Tap and Reuse cups and receive 25p off your hot drink. Just return your borrowed cup to one of the collection points around the park within seven days.

But be quick... these Halloween treats won't be haunting us for long! 👻
