At 12pm today, we will officially launch our new Black Country Afternoon Tea offer. Inspired by the region’s rich heritage and the Museum’s historic stories, this unique new experience will welcome its first guests from Saturday 19 September.
Designed to delight both loyal supporters and new audiences, the afternoon tea combines traditional regional flavours with creative presentation. Guests can enjoy a menu featuring miniature fish and chips, Black Country cheese and onion cobs, Coronation Chicken, ration-inspired favourites, retro school cake, and our innovative “profitercoals” served in their own miniature coal bucket.
Adding to the experience, the afternoon tea is presented inside a miniature replica of two of our iconic historic buildings: Veal’s Baker’s Shop and Hobbs & Sons Fish and Chip Shop.
