The team who organise the long-running Adams Antiques Fairs at the Royal Horticultural Hall in Victoria and the Frock Me! vintage fairs have just opened a pretty little tea room in Brighton, after months of painstaking restoration to the building.

The vintage packaging,  delightful black and white photographs, old cookery books and a collection of ‘pie birds’ or ‘pie funnels’ give the tea rooms a lovely nostalgic feel. And by all accounts the cakes and cream teas are delicious too !

Blackbird Tea Rooms are at 30 Ship Street, Brighton BN1 1AD. Tel:01273-249454
