Mackintosh at the Willow - 217 Sauchiehall St.
Not to be confused [even though it is confusing] with "The Willow Tea Rooms" on Buchanan St.
There's a long, complex, and somewhat sad story of the rivalry between the organizational groups of preservationists who maintain separate Charles Rennie Mackintosh tea shops in 21st century Glasgow.
I won't go into the dispute here, however.
The "Mackintosh at the Willow" on Sauchiehall is more "authentic" in that it includes the recreation of the facade of the building, Mackintosh's most "revolutionary" art nouveau-styled design. It also has re-created furnishings, wall-papers, paints, mirrors, and lighting fixtures as well.
