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.

Starters

London Peculiar

Green split peas, carrot & cream soup.
or

Welsh Rarebit

Melted mature cheddar with mustard and egg on toast, served with a salad.

Originally called ‘Welsh Rabbit’, a witty insult about the Welsh, in that they would offer you rabbit and then give you cheese on toast. Ours includes mustard and egg according to the original recipe

Mains

Kedgeree

A classic Anglo-Indian dish. Curried rice, sliced egg and smoked
mackerel, served with mixed leaves and balsamic vinaigrette.

or

Steak and Kidney Pudding

An English classic, mouth-watering steak and kidney encased in delicious suet pastry served with mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables.

While the invention of the pudding cloth revolutionised English cooking in the 16th Century, the first recorded recipe for steak and kidney pudding appears courtesy of Victorian domestic goddess Mrs Beeton in 1861.

Followed in the interval by a pot of our Tea House Leaf Breakfast Tea and our Homemade Raisin Scones with Ringden Farm Summer Fruits Jam and Cornish Clotted Cream.
