The Willow Tearooms (interchangeably used as Tea Rooms) aka Mackintosh at the Willow is located at 215–217 Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow City Centre. Mackintosh at the Willow re-opened to the public in September 2018 after an extensive restoration. The original Willow Tea Rooms building was initially opened by Miss Cranston, designed by the famous Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 1903. You can now dine in the historic tearooms (or on the outside-seating rooftop terrace, when open), learn more at the new interactive visitor centre about the living-history that is the tearooms, & visit the retail store.
Mackintosh at the Willow’s daily menus are proud to be able to cater to most allergies & dietary requirements, including have a vegan afternoon tea menu, lovingly created by head pastry chef, Sarah.
But it's not 'just' tea & scones!
A not-for-profit social enterprise, the Tearooms are a subsidiary of the registered charity ‘The Willow Tea Rooms Trust’ & in partnership with the Princes Trust, are engaged in many socially-driven endeavours in the local & larger Scottish community, such as Summer 2021's first 'Tactile Tour' with DeafBlind Scotland, being part of SME Climate Hub & the 'We're Good To Go' scheme through Visit Scotland.
