Gluten free afternoon tea! Can this be?

Having grown up in a town/county where despite everyone being relatively 'faddy' the move towards 'gluten free' options hasn't really taken off

I have struggled at home to find a place to enjoy a traditional afternoon tea with friends, my Mum bringing me up to appreciate a good scone! In Nottingham, however, I have been overwhelmed with my options for tea with friends and have only ever been pleasantly surprised!

Thea Caffea, is a top favourite of mine, they do a complete gluten free afternoon tea, they never seem to be at all 'put out' are extremely accomodating and the food is absolutely delicious. Whilst the gluten free bread isn't a patch on the home made bread at 'The Larder' the scones more than make up for this in their light fluffy nature. 



Flowering jasmine tea - such an exciting moment!

The cakes are also, like the Larder, extremely delicious and it feels nice to have a meal albeit a feast, where you don't feel like the odd one out. Obviously the feast wasn't complete without a cheeky glass of Prosecco


I think all of us had a delicious meal and would highly recommend Thea Caffea to anyone looking for a nice cafe with good service, beautiful crockery and delicious food.
