1940's Tea room in Stratford
Great find a couple of weeks ago, down Union Street in Stratford, not far from the main road and Shakespeare's birthplace. A 1940's themed tea room with ration book covers to the menus, decoration and staff dressed appropriate to wartime Britain (including their hair tied up in headscarves) and a large china pot of real tea that comes with its own sand-timer to tell you when the tea is ready and you can take out the large infuser. Scones, jam and cream went down well and the staff were friendly, despite all eight of us turning up just as they were closing.
This is worth a visit, especially if you have friends visiting the town, or you just fancy something different from the Bard. I will definitely be going back, if only to have another pot of their very pleasant blend of 'real' tea.
Fourteas Tearoom, Union Street, Stratford on Avon
Recent news - the FourTeas tea rooms have moved last week to new premises in Sheep Street, just opposite the theatre. Looks just as good so will give it a try when we are next in Stratford
