should add a vegan option with regular (wheat) bread

I went for the Afternoon Tea (they call it high tea, but it's really not), which includes a good selection of sweet and savoury treats.

The scones are lemony with a slightly weird texture, probably due to being gluten-free. The cream is more whipped than clotted, but still good.
The cucumber sandwich was really nice. The smoked tofu sandwich was especially good. The toasted sandwiches especially suffered from the gluten-free bread which does not toast well.
All in all, it's more food than it initially looks like.

They have a decent selection of teas, though surprisingly few black teas; you can get oat, soya, or almond milk with the tea.

My main issue is that they combine vegan and gluten-free. I didn't mind for the sweet cakes, but that gluten-free bread was just not very good, especially when toasted it was pretty bad. I can understand that they want to limit the number of different cakes they have to bake, but they should really have a separate option for vegan with regular bread.

Another nitpick (given the price) is that the tea is served in aluminium pots. It's bad for the tea flavour, and it doesn't insulate at all, so the tea cools down fairly quickly. A ceramic tea pot, possibly with a cozy, would be better and also fit the ambience better.

Cons: gluten-free bread

Adorable tea salon!

Such a lovely, cozy & quaint tea salon with great vegan options. Slightly pricey but worth it for the experience and you will be full by the end of it!! I enjoyed everything I had, such a great selection of desserts & savoury bites.

Pros: Unlimited tea, Cute, photogenic environment

Cons: A bit pricey

Wonderful vegan high tea!

These people know how to please everyone, with a high tea menu for every diet. The vegan option is not only beautiful and creative (I kind of felt guilty biting into some of the works of art!), but absolutely delicious. For tea, I had a Thai Chai latte with oat milk. Amazing!

Magical

Vegan high tea: delicious and perfectly made little savory and sweet delicacies, accompanied by an unlimited choice of rich tea flavors. Magical ambience, lovely staff, adorable details.
I loved every single bite of what I had.

Great Vegan Options

Great place to have tea and snacks, there is a whole section of the menu that is vegan as well as a fantastic selection of teas. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to have a quick snack or looking for a more magical high tea experience.

Pros: clearly marked menu of vegan options, also can order dairy and gluten free
