Step on board the iconic ‘Orient Express’ for a murder mystery dinner experience like no other. Join crime writer Jonathon Mapletree and a cast of suspicious characters as you solve this mystery of literary proportions.
Whilst you enjoy a delicious three course dinner, gather clues from the various suspects as they visit your table, discuss with your fellow diners and then decide...whodunnit!
You are invited to dress in the stylish Art Deco period and fully immerse yourself in the mystery.
Cluedunnit have been involved in providing Murder Mystery Dinner Experiences for 40 years and are one of the longest established murder mystery companies in the world.
The year is 1935, and a shortlist of potential authors has been announced for the prestigious Scarlett Quill Award. It is a coveted prize indeed, having been won by Agatha Christie and her ground-breaking whodunnit ‘Murder On The Orient Express’ just the year before.
After an overnight stay at the George V hotel in Paris, the six nominees board the train for a journey they will never forget, as one-by-one, they are murdered on the Orient Express!
Enjoy a three-course dinner as you question the suspects, decipher the clues and work to crack the case - before the train comes to a full stop!

BOOKINGS ESSENTIAL
Entrée: Clues & Cover-Ups
Blood-Red Beet Carpaccio (Vegetarian)
A striking arrangement of roasted beet slices, goat cheese “evidence,” rocket, and a citrus “interrogation” drizzle—every bite leaves a clue.
Main Course: Prime Suspects
The Smoking Gun Short Rib (Beef)
Braised beef short rib in a deep red wine “crime scene” reduction, with creamy polenta and carrots too clean to be innocent.
Dessert: The Final Reveal (Chocolate)
Death by Chocolate Torte
A decadent, flourless dark chocolate torte layered with “fatal” hazelnut ganache. Finished with bittersweet chocolate curls and a dollop of innocence—if such a thing exists.
