The tearoom has been tucked down the Hidden Lane in Finnieston for over ten years. We have a great team of staff including some fantastic bakers, and we’re proud to be so highly review for our food and service. It’s the perfect spot off the beaten track to stop for a tea and scone, or enjoy afternoon tea with friends.

What are your bestselling treats and can you deliver these to GGC HQ please!?
Our scones are freshly baked every morning, and each day we create a seasonal special. At Christmas, you can expect festive versions like cherry & coconut, cranberry & dark choc and mince pie. We don’t do deliveries, but we do offer scone boxes and takeaway afternoon tea on your website – you van book a takeaway slot and collect from. The tearoom to enjoy at home.
What would you say is the best tea to have on a cold and frosty winter’s day?
We love a chai at the tearoom, and we blend our own chai’s in-house to make them extra special. They have been so popular that we now also sell chai bags to take home, which make excellent stocking fillers!
