Supermarket giant Tesco is making the most of the popularity of hot cross buns by opening a cafe dedicated to the Easter treat. It will be based in central London and will also offer five-course fine dining.
The Tesco Hot Cross Bun Café will be open for one week only from Tuesday, April 5 and will cost from £5 a head. Bookings can be made via OpenTable from Friday, March 18. However, a proportion of tables will be available during each session for walk ins.
All of the café’s proceeds will go to the supermarket’s charity partner, the Trussell Trust, helping them to provide emergency food and support to people in crisis this Easter. Open daily from 10am till late, the café will serve brunch and afternoon tea during the daytime, before transforming into an adults-only five-course dining experience in the evening.
