Teahouse

Located in the heart of the nurseries in a sensitively renovated garden shed the Teahouse at Petersham Nurseries plays homage to the greatest camellia of all, camellia sinensis - commonly known as the tea plant - serving an extensive range of delicious and fragrant, fine, whole leaf White, Green and Jasmine Chinese teas. Click here to view the Teahouse menu.

The Tea House also serves English apple and pear juices, hand roasted, ethically sourced coffees (such as the fragrant and mild Ethiopian to the full bodied and rich Colombian) and homemade cakes. At lunch time, homemade sandwiches made with naturally leavened breads and soups (such as borlotti bean and vegetables, sweet potato and ginger) are served.

Please note savoury dishes are served from midday until stocks last, followed by afternoon teas, coffees and homemade cakes.

Each month the tea house introduces a monthly guest tea which we invite you to sample. Click here to view our guest tea for the month of June.
 
Best reached on foot following a leisurely stroll along the Thames from Richmond or by bicycle, the Petersham Nurseries Tea House is a much loved local destination and the perfect place to relax while planning your garden for the year ahead.
