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

  • Tea House Theatre 139 Vauxhall Walk London, SE11 5HL United Kingdom (map)

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.
