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.

Park and Lane are back due to popular demand (i.e. their accountant!) for a second slice of their own unique brand of comedy mayhem (and some carrot cake!)

See Park and Lane reverse forward into the golden age of 40’s / 50's British radio…

An age when people left their front doors open…hoping you would steal their powdered egg, if they were lucky.

Selfie’s were something you did under the bedsheets at night, with the aid of a torch and a copy of Health & Beauty, praying your mum wouldn’t walk in on you.

And TV was…bloody expensive, which meant radio was king and will be again!

So join the boys as they bring radio comedy back kicking and screaming into the present.

Who are Park and Lane?

Park & Lane are a writing and performing comedy team, comprising Daniel Graylyons and Simon M. James. They formed in September 2009.

Dan and Simon met while excavating a mummy's tomb at a dig in Luxor, Egypt. Dan was, at this time, one of Britain's foremost archaeologists and discovered Simon under a stone. Simon had been there for some time, playing the longest game of Hide and Seek in recorded history with his mother and father. Unfortunately, they had somehow forgotten about the seeking aspect of the game. Dan and his expert team (the all-girl Dishy Dozen, famed in archaeology circles for their hot pants and pith helmet look) also made the amazing discovery that, after giving Simon's baldy head a polish, at a certain angle he could be used as a human sun dial, due to the dazzle off his head and his hog ears…Oops!…Typo error?...
