The Willow Tea Rooms
The story of the Willow Tea Rooms inspiration began a long, long time ago… Kate Cranston, the famous Glasgow Tea Room Entrepreneur, and one of Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s biggest supporters, was born in her father’s hotel in George Square, Glasgow in 1849.
The Cranston family were avid supporters of the temperance movement and Kate’s brother Stuart gets the credit for opening the first Tea Room. He was a tea merchant and his enthusiasm for his product led him to have a kettle on hand in his shop to provide samples for his customers.
