Murder Mystery Night
A murder. A room full of suspects. And one table that might just crack the case.
Join us at Abbey Mill for an immersive evening of live theatre, brilliant food, cocktails and a murder mystery waiting to be solved.
Throughout the night, live actors will perform the story around you, bringing the suspects, secrets and twists to life as the mystery unfolds. Watch closely, listen carefully and keep track of the clues — because once the evidence starts stacking up, it’s over to you.
You’ll work together at your table to piece together the clues, uncover the lies and decide who you think committed the murder before all is finally revealed.
Come with friends, settle around your table and prepare to question everything.
Tickets £65

Tables are £5 to reserve, and you’ll get a free drink in return.
