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.

Words Away

Parallel Worlds: writing recurring characters and serial fiction.

Guest author: Amanda Craig

Come and explore the playful possibilities of fiction with our guest, novelist, critic and journalist, Amanda Craig.
Amanda is the author of seven novels, including A Vicious Circle, Hearts and Minds (Long-listed for the Women's Prize) and The Lie of the Land (Radio 4 Book At Bedtime).

Although each of the novels can be read on its own, they are part of an inter-related series about contemporary life in which minor characters become major ones, and vice versa.

Often satirical, romantic and concerned with crime, she has been called a "State of the nation" novelist, and most often compared to Dickens, Trollope, Kate Atkinson and Evelyn Waugh.
This salon should appeal to fiction writers looking for new ideas or intrigued by the process of constructing compelling stories.
