If you’ve ever wanted to have a vaguely haunted Afternoon Tea, you should bring that dream to Rosefinch this weekend! 🕯️

Book here: https://rosefinch.co/products/afternoon-tea

This Friday, Saturday and Sunday, every tier of our tea trays will have a special Hallowe’en treat. We’ve got pumpkin & feta scones, mummified smoked sausages (veggie sausages for vegetarians!), and little meringue ghosts filled with creepy cranberry curd.

So come see us in Port Medway for three storeys of whimsical little snacks and a piping hot pot of tea. Bring someone you’re fond of haunting!

We've also got lots of gothy gifts for sale, and will be vibing to Hallowe'en playlists by Jairus. Feel free to add your requests in the comments! 🐈‍⬛

Soup flights are flapping their wings (sorry, I've been spending too much time with butterflies).

We are going to be doing this every Wednesday. ❤️

We are so delighted by your enthusiasm so far! Apparently lots of us have been waiting for someone to serve us soups in teacups with charming squares of bread!

$18 gets you all three soups, each with its own piece of focaccia. The soups are gluten-free, and we’ll be offering a gluten-free bread option, too!

For now we aren’t taking reservations, but we’ll roll that out if we need to!

Bring a friend! Bring a book! Bring your emotions about soup (or butterflies)!

Don't forget! Rosefinch Sessions Volume Six: Haunted Edition is this Thursday!

Two nights before Halloween, our monthly music night goes gothy. Cursed Arrows bring nearly twenty years of gritty, magnetic art rock in the lineage of PJ Harvey and Tom Waits. The Lamplighters come down from Bridgewater with banjo, cello, violin and bass, all four of them singing songs that lean dark (they promise they’re actually very nice people). And our host Ocean Charter of Values plays slightly haunted songs about prophetic dreams, time travel and video games.

Bring a friend, or come on your own and leave with a few new ones.

Thursday, October 29, 7 to 10 PM
Rosefinch Mercantile & Tea Room, 1615 Port Medway Road
All ages, by donation to the artists
Coffee, tea, snacks and light fare all evening

Your next new friend might live five minutes away. Let’s find out! We’ve just started a Young Adult Drop-In Group at Rosefinch. It is hosted by Adam, a lovely young man in our community.

Every Wednesday from 1–4 pm, from now through the end of March, you can come hang out for board games, video games, and conversations that may require explaining the entire plot of something.

Bring your niche interests, your collectables or a project you are working on. Come with a friend or come on your own. Be as chatty or as quiet as you like! We'll just be glad that you are here.💛

It’s free to attend, with food and drinks available to buy. But you don't need to spend any money to participate!

📅 Every Wednesday, 1–4 pm, until the end of March

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Port Medway on Saturday and catching up with Audra Williams and Haritha Gnanaratna at Rosefinch Mercantile & Tea Room! 🌿☕️
​Housed in a gorgeous, lovingly restored 1850s general store, Rosefinch is so much more than a café and mercantile—it's truly the heart of the community. From their incredible scratch-baked treats and cozy tea room vibe to the local goods and welcoming atmosphere, Audra and Haritha have created the ultimate community living room.
​If you haven't made your way down to Port Medway to check out this gem yet, definitely add it to your list!
​📸 Snapped a few photos of these wonderful folks during our visit—take a look! 👇

It only took us one million years, but you can finally buy physical gift cards for our shop! Share the Rosefinch experience with someone who already loves it here, or maybe has never heard of us.

Do you know anyone who has been eyeing a quirky tote bag, wanting to stock up on witchy stickers, or is longing to come in for Afternoon Tea? Or maybe is one of our regulars and would love to have their next few lattes paid for? We can load them up for any amount you want!

If you are hoping to see one of these in your next birthday card or stocking, start dropping hints now! ♥️

Randee's vegan and gluten-free raspberry cake is just the pop of colour we all need to get through this grey day!! It would make a great dessert after piece of leek and Parmesan quiche or a bowl of or curried sweet potato soup! (Or just on its own with a latte!)

Also! Don't forget that the South Shore Open Doors association will be here today from 1:30 to 3:30pm! Worried about housing, rent, power bills, or someone you care about? Bring your questions and get help finding financial and community supports. You don’t need to know what you qualify for or where to start.

We've also got spooky tote bags, wooden owls, Laurie's playlist, and A+ vibes. Come see us in rainy Port Medway, we'll save you a seat!

Something is happening today that I have been daydreaming about for years: We are launching soup flights!

Every Wednesday, you can now come to Rosefinch and have three little soups in three little teacups, each with its own piece of focaccia.

Just look at them! It’s like a tea party at the home of a woodland creature who is worried you haven’t had lunch.

Our first lineup:
🥄 Curried Sweet Potato, Pinto Bean & Toasted Coconut, with Cumin & Oregano Focaccia
🥄 Red Lentil & Black Mustard Seed, with Roasted Garlic Focaccia
🥄 Smoky Tomato, Black Bean & Corn, with Rosemary & Tomato Focaccia

$18 a person, and only served on Wednesdays.

I think these are going to be so fun for outings with friends (please have passionate debates about the best combo!), as well as a lovely solo dining experience (please compare soups as a mindfulness practice!).

So come eat soup out of the good china with us. What else have we been saving it for? ❤️

Much love and thanks to Annanda, our Soup Witch, and to Izzy and Rebecca, our bread gnomes, for making this gorgeous food. And as always thanks to Haritha, for making all my dreams come true.

Soup's on at 1615 Port Medway Road, in delightful Port Medway!

p.s. You are allowed to mix and match the breads. There is no wrong way to do this.

Do you have clothes that you love very much but somehow never actually wear? Clothes for an imaginary version of yourself who goes to more garden parties? Who has never spilled soup down their front??

Maybe that person lives in Port Medway! Maybe we can get them your clothes!

South Shore Clothing Swap is coming to Rosefinch on Sunday, October 25, from 5–8pm. Bring up to 10 items and go home with something new-to-you. All sizes, genders, and styles are welcome! Clothes should be clean, with no rips or stains.

I always love handing over a thing I once chose for myself and watching someone else get excited about it. Plus, if they live nearby, you might still get to see it sometimes. Visiting privileges for your cardigan!

Admission is free. If you don’t have clothes to swap, you can bring a monetary donation instead.

Bring a pal, or come meet someone who will become briefly but fiercely invested in whether you take home the velvet trousers. 💛

Last Saturday was a magical day of friends visiting us for tea. What a joy!! What a thing to be able to show people who have been rooting for me, and then me and Haritha, for such a long time.

I am so proud of this place and so grateful for all the support we've had to get here.

Tell me about a friend who always believes in you, and then go tell them how much it means! ♥️
