Good to know

A few things to know before you order

We label every allergen on the counter

Our kitchen uses wheat, milk, eggs, nuts and sesame. Each bake has a card with its allergens. Ask us and we will check the recipe with you.

We cannot promise any bake is free from traces, as everything shares one oven.

Afternoon tea is served at the table

Afternoon tea for two is $58. It is served from 2pm to 4:30pm, or 2pm to 3:30pm on Sundays. It needs a day's notice, so we can bake the scones fresh.
