Afternoon tea 😍

I LOVED EVERYTHING.

The service was lovely, the atmosphere delightful, decor pretty...but the FOOD ohh I was so impressed!

The sandwich fillings were so flavorful, vegan cheese, grilled veggies, hummus etc, and the bread was really soft and thick and actually the bread itself was just really tasty! I liked whatever spread they used in place of butter too. The oatcake with hummus was yummy and the pickled cucumbers were right up my street. Loads of crisps too!

The cakes (scone, red velvet and a chocolate cupcakey thing that looks deceptively small in the photo - in actual fact it was like the size of my fist) were amazing and the chocolate one especially so. The sponge was SO fluffy and the icing was gorgeous. I was being a greedy birthday girl so asked if I could have another and they recommended the HUGE chocolate fudge cake in the counter so I got a big slab of that and it was like more of the same (which is fab as that's what I wanted) but actually EVEN better! SUCH thick icing, made with salted butter and not unsalted which is good as that's what I like. Unlimited tea and coffee so I had a million coffees and they were REALLY good.

I absolutely loved this afternoon tea and will 1000% be going back. Everything was so fresh!!!

Compliments to the chef!

What an explosion of flavours from a soup and a wrap! Wonderful when non- vegan establishments take as much care with plant based.

Pros: Yummmmmy, Sweet staff , Open early for breakfast

Breakfast

Had the vegan breakfast upstairs at the Tea Rooms. It’s a decent enough feed for £12 odd. I don’t like a lot of the elements (beans, mushrooms) so a more customisable option would’ve been better. Only vg option on the breakfast menu.

Lovely and delicious on a rainy day!

I loved the potato and leek soup (with yummy bread and vegan butter) and the breaded aubergine burger with vegan bacon, baby gem lettuce, and a vegan basil mayonnaise served with chips and a side of cucumber pickle. So delicious and the staff was friendly

Pros: Yummy vegan options (not a lot), Friendly staff, Nice setting

Sunday Roast

Exactly the vibe we were looking for and the meal was tasty! Wish they had a mushroom free Sunday roast option but I picked them out just fine.

Vegan Afternoon Tea

Anniversary afternoon tea plus a choice of flavoured gins with my wife today.
Great selection of sandwich fillings, houmous, salad, roasted veg, sausage with their homemade pickled cucumber.
Accompanied by chocolate muffin, carrot cake and strawberry scone and washed down with a pot of Earl Grey tea.
Served beautifully in their mismatched crockery and in a characterful setting

Vegan Afternoon Tea

📌 @thebutterflyandthepig

•RESTAURANT•

Taste: 🤤🤤🤤/5
Value: ££ - Reasonable

🌱 VEGAN AFTERNOON TEA
💰: £16.95
💭: We had a vegan afternoon tea for 2 people so this was doubled in our stand hence the amount of sandwiches and double up of cakes. Everything was lovely (especially the little sponge cakes). We got to pick our choice of sandwiches
🤷🏽‍♀️: Order again? Yes

📝: Lovely cosy cafe. Great place to have vegan afternoon tea in Glasgow - first place I have came across that does a vegan afternoon tea here
