Rosie Lea Tea House & Bakery

76 Brookley Road, SO42 7RA

An award-winning tea house and bakery on Brockenhurst's main street, serving breakfast, lunch, homemade cakes and afternoon tea, with a strong local reputation for its gluten free baking.

Diners and the My Gluten Free Guide community repeatedly recommend Rosie Lea for gluten free cream teas, with gluten free scones and cakes reported as regularly available; a local directory lists gluten free and dairy free options as standard. TripAdvisor reviewers have called it gluten free heaven. The venue's own website could not be reached to confirm its current menu wording.

Nothing published describes how gluten free bakes are made or kept apart from the wheat-flour baking on site. In a working bakery airborne flour and shared equipment are real risks, so ask before choosing.

Are your gluten free scones and cakes baked separately from wheat-flour items, or bought in from a gluten free producer? How do you keep gluten free items apart from other bakes at the counter and when serving cream teas?
