This festive season, The Ivy Exeter are inviting guests to join in the festive fun with the Naughty Elves Breakfast.
Guests will dine on a selection of festive favourites, while The Ivy's mischievous elves will entertain with playful antics, creating a festive atmosphere brimming with surprise and delight.
Menus feature festive dishes such as Santa's Workshop Pancakes with butter and maple syrup, Smoked Salmon with Scrambled Eggs, and freshly baked croissants and pain au chocolat dusted with pine sugar and served with seasonal preserves. Adults can enjoy dishes such as Crushed Avocado & Chestnuts on Caraway Toast or Eggs Benedict with hand-pulled ham.
Not only will children and adults alike delight in the festive food and magical mischief, but families will also be gifted a bundle of goodies to take home and continue the fun once the event ends. Children will receive the brand new Ivy Bear, presented in a festive gift bag, along with a playful elf headband and Santa letter writing kit, complete with pencil, eraser, letter paper and envelope. The grownups will also not be forgotten, taking home a beautiful glass Ivy bauble in either a festive red or green colour..
