🎉🥂 HAPPY 12TH BIRTHDAY TO THE VINTAGE EMPIRE TEAROOM! 🥂🎉

12 years… where has the time gone?! 💗🫖🍰

Today we’re celebrating 12 wonderful years of The Vintage Empire Tearoom in Herne Bay, and what a journey it’s been! From the highs and lows to getting through the incredibly difficult times of Covid, we’re still here, and that’s something I’m so incredibly proud of. ❤️

Running a small business is never easy, and there have been plenty of challenges along the way, but I honestly couldn’t have done it without the love, support and encouragement of my amazing family, my wonderful friends, my fantastic staff who have become friends, and of course, our absolutely wonderful customers. 🥰

Every visit, every cuppa shared, every slice of cake enjoyed, every kind word and every bit of support has meant more than you will ever know. You’ve all played a part in making The Vintage Empire what it is today, and for that, I will be forever grateful. 💕

Here’s to 12 years of tea, cake, laughter, friendships and making memories, and hopefully many, many more to come! 🫖🍰🥂

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for being part of our journey. We wouldn’t be here without you! ❤️

Lots of love

The Vintage Empire Tearoom ☕️💗
