If you’ve ever attempted to book seats for Atlas’ afternoon tea in the past - even the regular version - you’ll know how highly sought after they are. Alas, all seats for this festive edition seem to have been reserved already, but hold up - it won’t hurt to call the restaurant and try to get your name on the waiting list. If anyone makes a cancellation, you might still stand a chance!
