Please browse the rest of our site if you have the time and we will see you soon.

We are based in an old Victorian public house that opened in 1886 on the site of the Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens; immortalised as the ‘Vanity Fair’ in Thackeray’s eponymous novel.

We serve some of the best loose leaf teas available, proper sandwiches and homemade cakes; not to mention the best full English breakfast in London. Our teas have individual subtle flavours which would be overpowered by the instant, coarse, hit of coffee, so we do not sell it.

We make our own marmalade and jams, all for sale by the jar and all our teas can be bought by the ounce online (to view our range click here). Our meat comes from our local butcher and our fruit and vegetables from the local market gardens around us.

We are trying to be different. We will not hurry you. If you visit us on your lunch break, then have one, you will be more productive in the afternoon. If you want to have a meeting, we will not disturb you. If you are ‘working from home’, we have wifi. If you have children, we have highchairs, a chest of toys, and milkshakes. We always have the daily papers, so please, relax, and share in what we are trying to create, take a load off, and have a cuppa.

In Plain Sight - Work in Progress

Set across contemporary Britain, In Plain Sight is a collection of British-focused Stories of Love told in the form of a one-act play. Each scene is 20-25 minutes in length and is set in a unique location across the U.K., from the shores of Cornwall, rural Wales, and the Peak District echoing the complexity of life in Britain. The show highlights how love takes many different forms, from familial, platonic, and romantic, and how love is more complex than we often see in media. In this Work in Progress showcase, we are performing three of the five stories, celebrating love in all its forms:

Erin, Alys, & The Open Space - Telling the Story of Erin, who travels from Denbigh to Chester to meet her birth mother.

Alex, Danny, & The Space Between - Set in the City of Plymouth, Alex and Danny reconnect following a tragic incident that tore the two of them apart three years ago.

Hannah, Max, & The Whirlwind - When Hannah goes on her first date with Max in Lancaster, her life is swept up in a Whirlwind as their entire relationship is played out. A fun theatrical twist on the traditional rom-com.

Tickets: £10

THE AGORA DEBATE CLUB LONDON: WILL THE PUBLIC INQUIRY INTO THE RAPE & GROOMING GANGS DELIVER FOR THE VICTIMS?

The Agora Debate Club London presents:

The government has done a U-turn and decided a full national inquiry into the rape and grooming gangs is indeed necessary. But there have been 10 different inquiries already. How do we know this one will uncover the full truth, deal with the real horrors, deliver for the victims and ensure we do everything we can to stop there being future victims – how, in short, can we measure that this inquiry will deliver for the victims and for society? 

There will be a reception from 6pm where you can meet the participants and then the programme starts at 7pm.

Our panel consists of  the Independent member of the House of Lords, Baroness Claire Fox; Policy Lead at The Survivors Trust, Lucy Duckworth; Director at Switalskis Solicitors, David Greenwood; King's College Law Society member and human rights barrister, Dr Anna Loutfi; journalist and campaigner for victims of the rape gangs, Raja Miah MBE; and we will also hear from a survivor, Ellie Reynolds. The discussion will be chaired by the author and satirist Dominic Frisby. 

The proceeds from this event will go to support the import work done by The Survivors' Trust

The Odyssey

Penelope has ruled Ithaca for 20 years. The evening before she must choose a new husband a stranger arrives at the palace. He says he has news of Odysseus.
If her husband is not dead then where has he been, why does he now return and
what remains of their relationship? It would take divine intervention for this reunion to go well … luckily, the Goddess Athena is patron to them both.

Returning after its successful 2023 tour, our adaptation of this ultimate Greek epic is full of monsters and gods, interweaving music and modern dialogue with Alexander Pope's poetical translation.  Classic yet accessible, this musical adaptation touches on many universal themes. It is an introduction to this epic tale designed to be enjoyed by all the family and, we hope, spark a curiosity in the original!

Run time: 1 hour 20 minutes + 15 minute interval

Art Amongst the Rubble

Art Amongst the Rubble

Art Amongst the Rubble: Voices Beyond the Empire

This summer, Tea House Theatre opens its doors — and its stage — to voices too often unheard.

Art Amongst the Rubble is a living, breathing celebration of creativity from across the post-Soviet and formerly Soviet-influenced world.

It is a space to reflect, reclaim, and reimagine identity through art, amidst the echoes of empire.

Through film, dance, theatre, music, poetry, and visual expression, we gather to explore what freedom felt like when it arrived, how capitalism collided with culture, and what it means to integrate — or resist — the values of the wider world. These are stories of displacement and renewal, of rubble and resilience.

We want to hear your story — but not only yours.

Come and share the stories of your parents, your grandparents — those who lived through it, carried it, survived it, or resisted it. Their voices matter too. This is a space for remembering as much as it is for expressing.

Sunday 20th July | 7 PM | Free Entry

This is a free and open evening — a warm welcome to everyone, whether you’re performing, sharing, or simply listening.

We invite you to join us at the Tea House Theatre to meet others with stories from that “other” part of the world — from lives shaped by a different system, different truths.

Come to hear and be heard.

It is a gathering. A remembering. A reimagining.

Come and witness how art grows from ruin — and help us shape this living archive of post-imperial creativity.
