Easter in Richmond Upon Thames is packed with fun, family-friendly activities and delicious treats for all ages. Whether you’re on the hunt for teddy bears, enjoying an indulgent afternoon tea, or searching for delicious Easter eggs, you’ll find the perfect Richmond Upon Thames Easter activity in our guide below.
Teddy Bear Hunt
From 5th to 21st April, teddy bears will be hidden in shops across Richmond, and it’s your mission to find them.
As you follow the Teddy Bear Hunt trail map, make sure to keep your eyes open for big teddy bears hidden in participating businesses. Each bear will have a letter attached, and once you've found them all, you can unscramble the letters to reveal a secret word. Then simply scan the QR code on your trail map, enter it on the Be Richmond, and you’ll be in the running to win a fabulous afternoon tea for a family of 4 at 144 On The Hill.
But that’s not all, hidden within each shop are miniature teddy bears, waiting for you to take them home!
Afternoon Tea at 144 on the Hill
There’s nothing more decadent than an afternoon tea, especially when it’s Easter themed and served with a complimentary weekday glass of bubbly.
At 144 on the Hill, enjoy a selection of delicate pastries, fluffy scones, and savoury delights, with Easter-themed additions. Treat yourself to this seasonal delight from the 14th – 20th April.
Shop for the perfect Easter egg
Easter and chocolate just go together. When it comes to finding the perfect Easter egg, Richmond’s chocolate shops offer plenty of tempting options.
From kids' eggs bound to please to gourmet eggs for added luxury, Venchi have been crafting Chocolate artistry since 1878, so when it comes to finding the perfect Easter egg, you know you’re in good hands.
Hotel Chocolat offers Easter treats for the whole family — or a little something just for yourself. Take your pick from moreish, melt-in-the-middle mini eggs and extra thick chocolate eggs to our iconic chocolate egg sandwiches, and everything in between.
Hunny Bunny Brunch at Slug & Lettuce
Brunch is always a winner, but even more so when it comes with a complimentary welcome drink and fun Easter vibes.
Gather your friends and hop on over to Slug & Lettuce on the 20th April for delicious brunchy bites. Upgrade your booking to enjoy exclusive Hunny Bunny cocktails all brunch long.
