11 Bridgerton-Inspired Recipes For Your Season 3 Part 2 Watch Party
Could you pass the jam bars?
Bridgerton isn’t just a TV show — it’s an experience. From the gorgeous settings to those incredibly sexy and romantic scenes, it makes sense why Bridgerton fans want to turn their viewing into an actual all-day affair. With Season 3, Part 2 streaming on Netflix this week, it’s time you created your ultimate tea party with some super easy and regency-inspired Bridgerton recipes.
These Bridgerton recipes are great if you’re having a big watch party with your fellow Lady Whistledown girlies, but these are also fun to try if you’re just watching alone at home — or doing an epic rewatch. The regency inspiration in these recipes means there is a lot of pastries, desserts, and sweet treats, so you could easily make a few of these Bridgerton recipes and save them for a few days or give them away to friends and family. There are only four episodes in this Season 3 Part 2 release, so you may find that you’re unable to demolish a whole lemon tart before you finish.
But no matter what, be sure to brew a pot of tea, maybe get a bottle of lemonade, and put out your prettiest plates. If you’re getting dressed up, that’s even better. Bridgerton is meant to be watched with intent — and then you can rewatch it 800 times and eat all the leftovers.

This summer cheeseboard from Half-Baked Harvest gives you all the info you need, too, so you have the perfect mixture of sweetness, tang, crunch, and soft savory cheeses.
7Easy Smoked Salmon Dip
While dainty little tea sandwiches made with smoked salmon are definitely a great Bridgerton snack, you can make things feel a little fancier witht his smoked salmon dip. Super easy to pull together and you can either put it between slices of bread or just dip crackers right on in.

9Chicken Pot Pie
If you want a savory dish on the table or want to plan dinner around your Bridgerton watching, whip up this easy chicken pot pie from A Pretty Life in the Suburbs. It’s classic and rustic like good ol’ England, but it also has some regency vibes thanks to the fact that many classes of people weren’t able to enjoy a dinner like this at that time.
10No-Bake Chocolate Eclair Dessert
For hardcore Bridgerton fans who know there’s an eclair scene in the books, you might want a little homage to the cuteness with this no-bake chocolate eclair dessert. Of course, homemade eclairs are a great choice, but they can also be tricky and time-consuming — this is a solid substitute.
