Easter falls on Sunday 5 April, and this year’s long weekend has plenty going for it: smart hotel escapes, storybook afternoon teas, Sunday lunches worth dressing up for, and gorgeous Easter gifting. From Marylebone dining rooms to countryside hideaways, these are the Easter plans that feel a little more polished than the usual foil-wrapped routine.


Templeton Garden



Templeton Garden is a chic west London option for families who want Easter to feel calm rather than chaotic. Pippin’s anchors the food offering, Sprout takes care of the cocktails, and Easter programming on 5 April includes an egg hunt from 12pm to 1pm. It is the sort of booking that covers lunch, children’s entertainment and a civilised drink for the grown-ups in one neat move.



The Landmark London



For a five-star city break with minimal effort and maximum payoff, The Landmark London’s Easter Escape package is a strong bet. It runs from 30 March to 10 April 2026 and includes breakfast, with complimentary stays for children under 12.



Sopwell House



If Easter sounds better with spa time than sugar highs, Sopwell House is the grown-up answer. Its Easter escapes are built around overnight stays, seasonal treats, dining and time to unwind, with Cottonmill Spa very much the main draw.



Down Hall Hotel, Spa & Estate



Down Hall is doing Easter on several fronts, which makes it particularly useful for families. There is an Easter Family Stay from 31 March to 12 April from £269, alongside Easter afternoon tea and an Unlimited Easter Sunday Feast on 5 April.



The Montagu Arms



For a countryside version of the long weekend, The Montagu Arms keeps things pleasingly simple. Its Kids Stay Free package makes it an easy choice for anyone who wants Easter to feel more escape than schedule in the New Forest.



Lanes of London



Lanes of London has one of the prettiest Easter-adjacent treats on the list. Its Guess How Much I Love You afternoon tea runs Friday to Sunday, from 13 March to 19 April, with the menu built around sweet little references to the much-loved children’s book. Whimsical, yes, but still polished enough to charm the adults too.



Kitchen at Holmes



Kitchen at Holmes is a good Marylebone pick for those who want Easter lunch to feel relaxed but still occasion-worthy. Weekend brunch and Sunday roast both feature, which makes it an easy sell for a long, lazy gathering.



The Italian Greyhound



Marylebone has no shortage of polished lunch spots, but The Italian Greyhound still feels like a find. It is a neighbourhood bar and dining room built around seasonal Italian cooking, handmade pasta and Sunday roast, with Sunday opening from 12pm to 10.30pm making it an easy Easter weekend booking.



RAILS



RAILS is a smart King’s Cross option for anyone who wants Easter brunch with a little more character. French-inspired classics and sharing dishes are served on Sundays from 12pm to 5pm.



Browns Brasserie



For a dependable booking that works across generations, Browns remains an easy crowd-pleaser. It is a classic British brasserie with all-day dining across locations nationwide, which makes it a useful fallback for families who want familiarity without feeling dull.



Aragon House



Aragon House is all about Sunday done properly. Aragon Sundays run every Sunday from 12pm to 9pm, with both individual and sharing roasts in a polished Parsons Green setting.



Pavyllon London



For Easter gifting with a little more polish, Pavyllon London is offering a limited-edition egg that feels every bit as refined as the restaurant itself. Created by Yannick Alléno’s Michelin-starred dining room at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane, it combines dark chocolate with almond and hazelnut praline and sobacha for a finish that is elegant rather than overly sweet. It is priced at £40 and available from 30 March to 5 April 2026 for collection from the restaurant.



Birley Bakery



Birley Bakery is another elegant answer to Easter gifting. Its seasonal collection covers hot cross buns, Easter cakes and chocolate pieces that look as good as they taste.



TOZI Restaurant & Bar



TOZI is still worth having on the list as a stylish, family-friendly Italian option. Venetian-inspired cicchetti and sharing plates make it an easy fit for a relaxed Easter meal.



The Cinnamon Collection



For families who want something more interesting than the usual roast route, The Cinnamon Collection is a good shout. Current Easter pages across the group support the seasonal family angle.



Sticks’n’Sushi Battersea



For an Easter activity that moves beyond chocolate and colouring pens, Sticks’n’Sushi’s Kids’n’Sushi classes are a fun alternative. Children’s sushi classes in London, including Battersea, are bookable across March to May.



The Ned



If your preferred Easter mood is “make a full day of it”, The Ned has that covered. Easter Sunday Feast lands on 5 April 2026 and Easter Monday Feast follows on 6 April 2026.



Master of Malt’s Easter Spirits Edit



For a more grown-up Easter angle, Master of Malt is leaning into dessert in bottle form. The live lineup includes Project #173 Chocolate Rum, Project #173 Dubai Chocolate Rum, Project #173 Bakewell Tart Rum and Jaffa Cake Gin, giving this section enough chocolate, citrus and pastry energy to earn its place.
