Tchai-Ovna, inspired by the teahouses (Čajovny) in the Czech Republic, is a speciality tea-house and music venue situated in two locations within Glasgow, Scotland. The two locations, Shawlands and the West End, serve a number of different types of tea; vegetarian and vegan food and the West End shop allows the rental of Hookah pipes.
The venues are popular with students, the elderly and members from various Glasgow based bands, including Franz Ferdinand, Belle and Sebastian, Camera Obscura and up and coming Unkle Bob.
Tchai-Ovna may be forced to close by a proposed new development of luxury flats on Otago Lane. A community campaign to save Otago Lane is attempting to defend it.
