Description

The shop sources a dizzying array of mixtures, ranging from white, oolong, and pu-erh to specialized medicinal herbs and herbal blends like Serenitea. Visitors can pick up loose leaves by the ounce to take home—such as their popular cream Earl Grey—or stay to sip. The tight footprint makes it a spot best suited for parties of one or two looking for a quiet respite. Beyond daily service, the space hosts monthly educational tea classes for those looking to expand their brewing knowledge.
