The Flowering Teapot

Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Caversham's "The Flowering Teapot" cafe this afternoon. Delicious chocolate loose-leaf herbal tea, in a tea-pot, that served me three cups, served with superb chocolate cake. Jane had a delicious pecan pie. The cakes and pastries are made by the lovely owner, Samantha, with whom we chatted for 15 minutes. Give Costa a rest and support a true local business - "The Flowering Teapot". You wont be dissapointed.

I'm not turned on by raw food. Being vegan is enough for the moment. I'm not a fan of beetroot. And if something has kale in it, I look the other way. So imagine my surprise when I randomly stumbled on The Flowering Teapot in Caversham...and had one of the most delicious-tasting experiences ever with their 80% raw vegan terrine! There's a spinach, kale and herb layer; with carrots and omega seeds; houmous (or hummus, depending on whether you're correct or pohsh); beetroot and more herbs. OH MY DAYS! Love finds like this 😁. Preferred it to the food at Nomad Bakery, if I'm honest. Staff we're lovely, too. My head was turned even before I went in because of the heavenly aroma wafting outside.

Lovely! Finally made a trip after months of eying up the homemade cakes in the window every time I walked past. When I visited everything looked so tasty I struggled to decide! Sausage rolls were massive! I chose a quiche to takeaway which was delish. The staff were so lovely and happy to stop for a chat. Would come back based on their personalities alone! Deffo recommend!
