In a world packed with homogenous chain coffee houses, we are heartened to find a growing number of independent tea rooms where individuality is valued alongside quality and quirkiness.Take The Wild Trapeze in Heaton, Newcastle, where scarlet walls and a truly eclectic vintage mix of old masters, antique furniture, Tiffany-style lamps, and a baby grand piano combine to create a pleasingly Bohemian air.
The tea menu features more than 20 blends from all over the world. The coffee is locally produced and beautifully made, and the hot chocolate is made with real quality chocolate. The sandwiches are served on fresh local artisan bakery bread and the hollandaise is made per order with a whisk over a bain-marie, if you please.
