homage to charles rennie mackintosh

The Willow Tea Rooms, Buchanan St, Glasgow. http://www.willowtearooms.co.uk/

We wandered around Glasgow tired and weary and stubbled across these tea rooms, which were on my 'things to do' list for the city.

There was a short wait to be seated, and we swiftly ordered tea and cheese sarnies. I adored the high backed wooden chairs and the stained glass windows. The staff were not the friendliest but maybe they'd had enough tourists.

I've become a big fan of Charles Rennie and his dandyish ways. I'm now on a mission to visit more of his buildings.
