Whittard of Chelsea’s Cosy Happy Hour returns to The Cross Keys this December

Whittard of Chelsea and The Cross Keys are back together for a second year running, serving up the ultimate dose of festive cheer in the heart of Chelsea. This December, Whittard of Chelsea’s cosy happy hour at The Cross Keys invites Londoners to warm up in style with complimentary hot chocolates, teas, and biscuits every Tuesday evening in December from 6 pm to 7 pm.

Following the success of last year’s cosy happy hour, the 2025 edition returns with a fresh line-up of indulgent winter favourites and that same signature sense of comfort and community. Step in from the cold and discover a festive wonderland where heritage, flavour, and seasonal spirit come together in one cosy corner of Chelsea.

From flickering candlelight to the hum of conversation, there’s nothing quite like a pub at Christmas. The Cross Keys, one of Chelsea’s most historic and beloved pubs, sets the perfect stage for this midweek treat, pairing its warm, welcoming atmosphere with Whittard of Chelsea’s luxurious seasonal range.

For over 135 years, Whittard of Chelsea has been at the heart of British comfort, crafting the finest teas, coffees, and hot chocolates to bring people together. This collaboration continues that legacy, celebrating the simple joy of slowing down, sharing a cup, and savouring the season.

Guests can sip, sample, and delight in Whittard of Chelsea’s Christmas creations, including:
✨ Mulled Wine Instant Tea – Bursting with warming spice and festive flavour, minus the alcohol.
✨ Luxury White Hot Chocolate – A velvety, creamy indulgence that melts away the winter chill.
✨ Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate – Decadent, rich and irresistibly smooth.
✨ All Butter Christmas Pudding Biscuits – Sweetly spiced and full of Yuletide nostalgia.
✨ Cranberry & White Chocolate Biscuits – A fruity, buttery treat to complete the experience.

Whether you’re meeting friends, taking a breather from the Christmas shopping rush, or simply chasing that warm, fuzzy feeling of the season, Whittard of Chelsea’s cosy happy hour at The Cross Keys is the perfect way to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year, one comforting cup at a time.
