A quirky, converted Victorian pub in Vauxhall that serves as a militant tea room by day—strictly no coffee allowed—and an intimate performance space by night, complete with a resident cat.
Ordering Strategy
Don't rush—service is deliberately paced to encourage relaxation. Order a pot of tea immediately and settle in near a radiator (likely occupied by the cat).
What to order
Full English Breakfast
Promoted as 'the best full English breakfast in London' by the venue, reviewers confirm it uses 'quality ingredients' and offers a vegetarian version that keeps locals coming back.
Warmed Fruit Scones with Jam and Clotted Cream
Described as 'AMAZING,' these scones are served with homemade jam and clotted cream. Reviewers note that a serving can 'feed 3 people easily' when paired with their 'tasty little treats.'
Darjeeling First Flush
A standout selection from a 'dauntingly long' tea menu; reviewers recommend this specific variety to enjoy alongside the venue's 'marshmallow tea cake' and 'pecan pie.'
