With spectacular views across the River Tay, Tatha Bar & Kitchen at V&A Dundee is the smart place to be, whether you're grabbing a morning coffee, meeting a friend for lunch, or refuelling with afternoon tea.

There's plenty to enjoy at any time of day, with a wide selection of home-baked scones, cakes and savouries always on offer. Our nutritious, family-friendly menu changes daily, prominently featuring seasonal local produce in our range of soups, salads, deli filled baguettes, specials and home-baked treats.

Tatha Bar & Kitchen is also a wonderful spot for private celebrations, from dinner for twenty or more guests to a fun-filled party for up to 80. Get in touch and find out how we can create your own memorable event.

 

Catwalk Couture Afternoon Tea at Tatha Bar & Kitchen

A fashion‑forward afternoon tea inspired by Catwalk: The Art of the Fashion Show

Step into the world of high fashion as Tatha Bar & Kitchen unveils a decadent afternoon tea celebrating V&A Dundee’s headline exhibition, Catwalk: The Art of the Fashion Show.

Inspired by the creativity, spectacle and craftsmanship of the runway, this limited-edition experience presents a curated collection of savoury and sweet creations, each thoughtfully designed to echo the artistry of the fashion show.

Just like a designer’s collection, this afternoon tea is carefully composed by our chefs, bringing together elegant flavours, playful textures and beautifully presented creations, from the tropical Resort Collection Scone to the bold and dramatic Maison Signature Duck croquette.

From runway classics to couture‑level indulgence, every bite captures the drama, detail and artistry of the fashion world, all served with sweeping views across the River Tay.

Whether you're visiting the exhibition or simply looking for a stylish afternoon experience, Catwalk Couture Afternoon Tea offers a delicious way to celebrate the drama and excitement of the fashion show.

Available from Wednesday 1st April, 2026.
