Exciting news for all tea lovers and vintage enthusiasts! The beloved Essex Rose, formerly known for its delightful sweetie parlour, has undergone a charming transformation, bringing an elegant touch of English tradition to its cosy setting.

While we still cherish our sweet treats, we’ve expanded our offerings to create a true tea lover’s haven. Our newly revamped space now features a beautiful selection of English tea sets, perfect for those who appreciate a proper brew in a classic cup. We’ve also introduced a range of vintage crockery available for purchase—ideal for those who want to bring a touch of nostalgia into their own homes.

But that’s not all! We’re thrilled to offer beautifully designed biscuit tins, making them a wonderful gift or a lovely keepsake for your own kitchen. Whether you’re treating yourself or someone special, these tins are sure to add a vintage charm to any home.
To showcase our delightful new products, we’ve added a vintage dresser to the shop, lovingly dressed with our elegant tea sets, biscuit tins, and crockery. This charming display perfectly captures the warm and inviting essence of the Essex Rose, blending tradition with a fresh new feel.
We can’t wait for you to visit and experience the revamped Essex Rose for yourself. Come in for a relaxing cup of tea, browse our beautiful new additions, and soak in the vintage charm that makes our tea shop a truly special place. See you soon!
