Tea Room in Grantchester Gardens

The Orchard Tea Garden, Grantchester Fruit Tea Gardens, Grantchester Tea Room
Great britain, Cambridge
The orchards in the village of Grantchester are located along the River Cam, 2.5 km from Cambridge. One spring day in 1897, several students of the local university asked the hostess of the Dom-Sad cafe to lay a tea table for them in the garden, among flowering fruit trees. A similar way of tea drinking has taken root and it has become a tradition during the May holidays to sail by boat or ride a bicycle to the garden for breakfast with tea drinking.
The garden also houses the old vicar's house, which was settled in 1909 by the graduate of King's College Cambridge University, the poet Rupert Brooke, who dedicated one of his most popular works to the place “Old Vicarage, Grantchester.”
