About Impossible Wonderbar & Tea Room York
We've transformed the historic Terry's Chocolate Orange building at 3 St. Helen's Square into something extraordinary - a Grade II listed wonderland where chocolate heritage meets modern celebration. Our ground floor tea room serves as both a brasserie and sweet escape, where afternoon teas arrive on tiered stands alongside British-Bavarian dishes made with Yorkshire produce. Head upstairs to our Wonderbar and you'll discover what makes parties here unforgettable. Original wood paneling frames the space while a glass-domed ceiling bathes everything in natural light during the day, shifting to warm golden tones by night. The antique gold details aren't just decoration - they're part of the building's confectionery past, preserved and polished for today's celebrations. Our PINK bar brings a botanical twist to private parties with its garden-inspired interiors, while the more intimate Tea Room works perfectly for baby showers and smaller gatherings. We've hosted everything from raucous hen parties complete with cocktail masterclasses to sophisticated stag dos that start with whisky tastings and end with live jazz in the Wonderbar. The 13 boutique hotel rooms upstairs mean wedding parties can take over entire floors, and we regularly arrange drag brunches, burlesque shows, and themed nights that make use of our theatrical spaces. Our events team knows these rooms inside out - from which corner of the Wonderbar catches the best light for speeches to how the Corinthian columns in our main space create natural boundaries for different party zones. Being right in York's shopping district means guests can explore before settling in for celebrations, and our kitchen stays open late for those midnight feast moments that make parties memorable. Whether you're planning cocktails for 20 or a full venue takeover, we work with what these historic walls do best - create atmosphere.
