Tea Restaurants near Melrose Park, IL

“My sister introduced me to this wonderful tea shop and I cannot recommend them enough. Their Earl Grey de la Crème blend changed my perception of the Leafy Noble and many of their other teas are just as scrumptious. Even non tea lovers can find something they like since the staff is incredibly knowledgeable and will find something for even the pickiest palate. If you are in the area, skip the Starbucks and venture here. It will be well worth your while.“

“Best selection, service and presentation around. The staff is so helpful and knowledgeable. Great experience. That’s why I am a repeat customer and telling others - it’s just the best.“

“Chose to come here because it’s a halfway point between my friend’s and I’s homes, and it was such a pleasant experience! The atmosphere was very nice and calm, the smells were divine, and the service was excellent! We got to chat with the owner for a second and she was absolutely darling! I had a strawberry matcha latte with brown sugar boba and I know in a week I’ll be craving it again. 10/10 will be coming back again!“

“Friends and I experienced the Afternoon Tea Party.The presentation and taste of the teas,sandwiches,and desserts were amazing! Great service and atmosphere. RuthE“

“Great variety of boba and traditional fruit smoothies. I got the brown sugar boba, non dairy, made with black tea as well. PLEASE remember to shake it before you put the straw in it cause flavor is key here. Tapioca is made fresh you can taste it, tea brewed perfectly and it’s delicious. Atmosphere is so cute. I recommend this place to anyone who likes boba or anyone who wants a fresh fruit smoothie! Great variety of flavors and milk options which isn’t common!“

“I’ve had their tea before, and I can genuinely say the quality is on another level. Their blends are pure, carefully sourced, and full of intention — especially the Blue Lotus, which is incredibly rare to find in its authentic form. Many fakes are circulating out there, but this company is the only one in Chicago I’ve found that carries the real thing.

Some people might react to the prices without understanding the quality, dedication, and process behind each tea. These are not your average store-bought teas — those are often filtered or diluted. These teas are crafted to target specific functions within your body, offering you the full, natural experience as it’s meant to be.

If the price feels outside your budget, that’s completely okay — you always have the choice to pass. But it’s important to recognize the value of what’s being offered before criticizing it. There’s no hate in saying this, only respect — for both the craft and for people’s awareness of their own decisions. Quality has a story, and this tea truly tells it.

Just to clarify — their teas are sold by weight, not volume. Each blend has its own natural density, so some bags may look fuller or lighter even if they weigh the same. That’s simply the nature of real, unprocessed herbs. You’re still getting the full amount you paid for, measured with care and accuracy. It’s all about quality over illusion.“
