No. We are very sorry, but we cannot allow any children below 5 years of age into the Common Room. This is because the space is small and is not suitable for young children and infants who may affect the enjoyment of other guests.

 

We have no space to store prams or pushchairs and no baby changing facilities.

Why are children under 5 years old not allowed?

We have an age policy in place, as this experience and space is deemed to not be suitable for ages younger than 5 years. In addition, we are licensed to serve alcohol in the Common Room, and we cannot be responsible for minors.

How do I secure a slot?

The only way to secure a spot is to buy tickets in advance online for the date and time chosen.

What are the seating arrangements/Can we choose our seats?

We have tables of 2 and 4 available and will be allocated on booking. Due to the compact size and layout of the Common Room there is not sufficient space to add on extra seats. Should you wish to book for a larger party you will be seated on separate tables which cannot be “pushed together” due to the layout of the room.


Should you wish to book for a table of 8 this may be possible depending on availability, please email hello@cutterandsquidge.com

I want to come with a large group, what do I do?

The Common Room holds a maximum of 22-24 people at one time and you can buy all 22 tickets if they are available via our booking system.The booking system is the safest and easiest way to assure large bookings as it shows availability in real time. If the system does not let you book all 22 tickets, then this means that they are not available, and you will need to pick another date. We cannot accommodate groups larger than 22 in the Common Room due to the layout of the room and the experience

Is there a dress code?

There is no required dress code, but we welcome those budding wizards and witches to get into character if they wish.

Is there wheelchair access, or are there stairs?

Sadly, our Common Room does not have wheelchair access. Due to the historic nature of the building and the Common Room being in the old basement accessed by stairs, we are unfortunately unable to provide wheelchair access.

Hello Kitty

In 2016 we launched the first Sanrio official Hello Kitty Afternoon Tea in London. We immersed our customers in a unique and quirky experience based around Hello Kitty having high tea in London. The room was themed in Hello Kitty’s garden. Our menu was inspired by what Kitty loved to eat, apple pie mousse with a bow and chocolate mud pie! We heart Hello Kitty!

The Hello Kitty Afternoon Tea experience is no longer available.

Genie's Cave

We launched Genie’s Cave in 2017. We were voted one of the best afternoon teas in London. The Disney themed afternoon tea was inspired by the book Aladdin and the cave of wonders which made this experience great for children. We created jewelled scones, genie macarons, jewelled cakes all served on gold tables, with gold cutlery and china. Tea was poured from gold genie lamps to complete the experience.

The Genie's Cave is no longer available.

The Potion Room

Having launched in May 2018, and running for 5 years, The Potion Room had over 15,000 wizards big and small graduate Potions Class!
Part afternoon tea, part immersive theatre show, sweet-toothed students were invited to attend Potion Class. Wands and cauldrons at the ready, the Potions Master enlightened the class with the delicious delights of the dark arts, and had them whisking up edible potions and all manner of concoctions in no time!

The Potion Room is no longer available.

Hello Kitty

In 2016 we launched the first Sanrio official Hello Kitty Afternoon Tea in London. We immersed our customers in a unique and quirky experience based around Hello Kitty having high tea in London. The room was themed in Hello Kitty’s garden. Our menu was inspired by what Kitty loved to eat, apple pie mousse with a bow and chocolate mud pie! We heart Hello Kitty!

The Hello Kitty Afternoon Tea experience is no longer available.

Genie's Cave

We launched Genie’s Cave in 2017. We were voted one of the best afternoon teas in London. The Disney themed afternoon tea was inspired by the book Aladdin and the cave of wonders which made this experience great for children. We created jewelled scones, genie macarons, jewelled cakes all served on gold tables, with gold cutlery and china. Tea was poured from gold genie lamps to complete the experience.

The Genie's Cave is no longer available.

The Potion Room

Having launched in May 2018, and running for 5 years, The Potion Room had over 15,000 wizards big and small graduate Potions Class!
Part afternoon tea, part immersive theatre show, sweet-toothed students were invited to attend Potion Class. Wands and cauldrons at the ready, the Potions Master enlightened the class with the delicious delights of the dark arts, and had them whisking up edible potions and all manner of concoctions in no time!

The Potion Room is no longer available.
