The Gingerbread Tea House

Works are currently ongoing to pedestrianise Albert Road.

I apologise for any inconvenience caused by us being closed on Monday and Wednesday last week due to personal reasons.

We will also be closed on Wednesday 1st July. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but unfortunately this closure is unavoidable.

Thank you to everyone for your support, kind wishes, and continued custom. It is greatly appreciated.

Every tea, coffee, breakfast, and lunch purchased helps support the business, and I am truly grateful for each and every customer.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

My most sincere apologies for being closed the past few days.

The closure was due to the very sad loss of a close family member.

We are back open today and ready to serve our usual freshly prepared breakfasts and lunches.

My most sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Open as usual! ☕📚

Widnes is being transformed, and while the works on Albert Road continue, we’re here to remind everyone that The Gingerbread Tea House is still open.

We’re still serving freshly prepared breakfasts and lunches, along with tea, coffee and more. 🍳🥪🫖

We’re also still accepting book donations, and we’re here whenever you’re ready to find your next great read. 📖✨

As a small independent business, your support really does make all the difference — especially when the going gets a little tougher.

Thank you, as always, for continuing to support local. ❤️

Open as usual!

I would like to thank everyone for their patience and well wishes yesterday.

It's hard being a single parent to a 9 year old whilst also running a business. It is incredibly rare for me to close for a day, but Melissa needed me and my first responsibility is to her.

I apologise to all those whose breakfast and lunch plans were altered as a result of yesterday's closure.

We are back open today at 9am.

See you soon!

Closed today.

I'm so sorry to let people down, but I have to close today.

My daughter Melissa isn't well and I don't have anyone to take care of her. Normally she would come with me during the holidays.

I will do everything i can to ensure we're back open tomorrow and Saturday.

I hope you all understand.

We have had a few days away for the bank holiday weekend, but we will be back open tomorrow serving our usual menu.

I hope you're all staying cool during the heat wave... thank goodness we have air conditioning at The Gingerbread Tea House!

Hope to see you all soon!

Progress update!

Most of the stone for the block to be laid on has now been laid.

There is progress on the block paving... as I'm sure you'll agree, it looks great!

The coming weekend is going to be a scorcher 🥵🌡

We are open on Friday and Saturday as normal, but will be closed on Sunday, Bank Holiday Monday and Tuesday... back open on Wednesday to serve all of our delicious treats!!

If your kids are on holiday, why not bring them in for pancakes and shakes?

Whatever you're doing over the coming week, hope you have a great time!
