Came in today because my regular coffee shop was closed. I'm a tea drinker and they were out of Earl Grey (it happens -- it is the best after all). The staff was wonderful about it and helpful in selecting another option. I decided to try a pot of Chai.

This is the first good experience I have had with Chai in several years (food poisoning in college). And the atmosphere could not be beat. I got my own teapot and cup, the staff (as mentioned before) was wonderful, the music was upbeat but not oppressive, the space is full of light, and there are spaces to sit alone and with groups.

It's really aesthetically pleasing and pair that with with good food and drink? Total winner. And it's right on the corner so there is no hunting if you're trying to meet someone.

Menu in pictures. They do have some gluten free and vegan options.

Stumbled upon this gem one night when I needed it the most! As you can see from the photos they have dozens of types of tea (including herbal teas) and the cutest teapots ever. I buy my tea in bulk from them now (reasonable prices, great quality), but I still make time to go grab a halva cookie and a pot every now and then.

If I have one complaint (and it is outside of their control) It's that it is super cozy--read: it's tight quarters. There's room for a handful of couples, maybe one small group. Think intimate if you are thinking of going by. That being said, I highly recommend it!
