Lovely experience. Highly recommend the tea tasting. Meditative and educational
The owner, Daniel, and his wife, were amazing in taking us through a wedding tea ceremony, and a gongfu tea ceremony. Their knowledge is amazing and they really created a great atmosphere. The quality of their tea are top tier, it is was great to experience a few different kinds and compare them.
Excellent tea ceremony and beautiful tea ware and teas
So knowledgeable about different teas and preparation. Huge selection of quality teas
Amazing tea experience.
This store has such an incredible selection of authentic Chinese tea. The owner, Daniel, has a wealth of knowledge and is always eager to share it with those that come by.
Whether a tourist or a local, this place is worth visiting over and over.
This is an incredible tea shop. We took part in the tasting experience and it was so informative and very entertaining. I highly recommend this shop.
If you love tea, you need to come here! We walked in and asked for the $25/p tasting session. We got to sample some amazing teas while Daniel explained the various gongfu brewing techniques. I purchased some Oolong and Pu-erh tea and a beautiful Yixing clay teapot. Daniel and his family made my group of four feel super comfortable. They were so knowledgeable and informative. I would recommend this experience to everybody from the most veteran teaheads to total tea newbies. Thank you so much Daniel, we will never forget our visit!!
This tea shop in Vancouver Chinatown is a true gem for tea lovers and anyone curious about the world of tea. The quality and diversity of their teas are exceptional. Whether you're looking for delicate white teas, robust pu-erhs, or fragrant oolongs, they have an incredible selection that caters to all tastes and preferences. Each tea is carefully sourced, and you can really tell the care and expertise that goes into curating their offerings. The owner Daniel's passion for tea is infectious, and his knowledge is both deep and approachable. During a tea-tasting session, he guided us through a curated selection, explaining the nuances of each variety and how to properly savor them. It was a relaxing and educational experience, and I left with a greater appreciation for the art of tea. Whether you're a seasoned tea drinker or just starting to explore, The Chinese Tea Shop is a welcoming and enriching place to visit. I highly recommend stopping by for a taste of their wonderful teas and the chance to learn from Daniel's expertise.
I visited this shop during a trip to Vancouver a few years ago, and it has become my reason for returning to the city. The owner, Daniel, is a true master of tea.
I could not bring myself to write a review for this place for all these years because words are too pale to describe my experience with this shop.
I highly recommend that anyone visit the store, whether you are already passionate about tea and want to know more, do not know much about tea but are open to embracing a new journey ahead, or are lost in life and want to find and develop a new resting and healing habit through tea, etc.
I wish you all an amazing experience with the store and a wonderful life journey ahead.

Daniel distills the knowledge of tea and the communication transforms the tea drinker. The tea appreciation experience itself takes you on a journey, the flavor unfolds and takes you through time and space ?
Great authentic tea shop for a variety of Chinese teas. Staff is very helpful and I think they also do tea ceremonies sometimes. Good place to find unique loose leaf teas!
Daniel is very knowledgeable about tea and yixing teaware. I love learning Gongfu cha through him. His shop is the best for Chinese tea in Vancouver. I highly recommend if you’re looking tea around in the city.
