A small trek (the last bit up hill, a feat
after traipsing around Brighton all day) from the last café, is the final visit
of my trip, here at the beautiful Talk of Tea, another one who’s name intrigued
me.
With mismatched…everything, fairy lights
and tea lights hanging all over the place, a lovely comfy sofa in the corner
and at least ten potted plants dotted about
this is the most chilled café I have ever been too, more like someone’s
living room than a café. In this gorgeous little shop everywhere is comfortable
and everyone seems to know each other but far from making be feel like an outsider,
they make me feel welcome and this adds to the lovely homely feel of the café,
everyone’s up for a chat and a laugh, sat here with these lovely people and a
cup of tea I could be at a friends house. Listening to the conversations around
me (its impossible not to in the cosy space) I have discovered they have
regular games night and even a book club. I think I have found my happy place! If
I lived in Brighton I would be here more than at home!
The tea is lovely though I am a little suspicious
of the sugar, which I am told comes from Germany and is small rock-like shards
in various shades of brown (at least I hope it’s sugar, either that or it’s the
best practical joke ever and I just put stones in my tea!) The cake, which is
dished out in really generous chunks looks delicious but I am way too full and
can’t even finish my tea, instead snacking on the sugar-rocks (or really tasty
stones) shh, don’t tell them!
I really could sit in this beautiful relaxed
tea shop all day if allowed (and honestly, I don’t think they would mind) and I
know I would definitely be here for the games nights, dragging a large bag of
games with me and it’s the lovely feeling of friendliness and charm that is the
reason (one of them anyway,) I really recommend this beautiful place to anyone
and everyone and am thinking of moving to Brighton now!
