WELCOME TO THE TEA HOUSE THEATRE

An independent tea house, theatre and events venue in the heart of Vauxhall.

Housed in a beautiful Victorian former pub beside the historic Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, the Tea House Theatre is a place to eat, drink, meet, work, relax and be entertained.

By day, settle in for exceptional loose-leaf tea, hearty breakfasts, proper sandwiches, homemade cakes and freshly prepared food. By night, the Tea House comes alive with theatre, live music, jazz, poetry, murder mysteries and special events throughout the year.

We are trying to be different. We will not hurry you. If you visit us on your lunch break, then have one — take your time, enjoy your food and go back to work properly refreshed. If you want to have a meeting, we will leave you to it. If you are “working from home”, we have Wi-Fi and plenty of space to settle in.

If you have children, we have highchairs, a chest of toys and milkshakes. We always have the daily papers, so please relax, take a load off and share in what we are trying to create.

There is no rush, no corporate formula and — famously — no coffee. Just good tea, good food, conversation, creativity and a wonderfully individual atmosphere.

Come for breakfast or lunch, spend an afternoon over a pot of tea, join us for dinner and a show, or simply come in and have a cuppa.

In July 2020 we have opened our doors again as a completely brand new Tea House Theatre.

We have repainted walls, oiled the floors, put in a brand new counter and bookcase and of course the new, extended kitchen is making our chef very happy.

Have you noticed three bee hives at Tea House roof? Yes, now we have our own Tea House Honey which is available for you to buy and take home. We also serve our teas with our own Tea House Honey. Isn’t it amazing?!

Another great news are - that we have launched eTea! Which means that now you can order our loose leaf teas directly from us and get it delivered to your door at no delivery charge!


Working from home? Work from Tea House Theatre!

We know how depressing it can be when you’re stuck with your work everyday in the same room. Or how hard it is sometimes to get in the ‘work’ mood while being at home.

But don't worry, we’ve got you covered! We have a perfect spot right here for you, with speedy, unlimited free WiFi, a table right by the plug socket.

So pop in today to do some work, or reserve you spot by clicking on BOOK NOW or by calling us on 02072074585

We are dog friendly 🐾

Never leave your four legged friend behind. We love our furry friends.

We will make sure your pet will get a bottomless water bowl and a treat!

However, please bear in mind, we have two Theatre Cats. Black and white cat, Maggie, is our real boss and her brother Gladstone, sweet Gladstone. They are pretty cool with sharing their house, unless Maggie is in the mood to tease a pooch.
