Cozy spot with a great selection of teas. Plenty of accessories, games, and more. Loved the chocolate chip muffin and Indian chai!

The service was amazing! They had a good variety of options. I had the Ube Tres Leches boba drink, and I appreciated the boba barista explaining to me how the Spanish colonized the Philippines and Ube is used in Filipino desserts. This was really fun to learn about. Would highly recommend visiting if you love tea!

They have a great menu and loose leaf teas. The weather called for pumpkin chai with boba. The tea was quite nice although the boba was underwhelming as far as flavor. Overall it was very good and would try another tea some time.

Cute little shop! I love how their menu shows caffeinate levels. I got the mango milk tea with coconut milk. It’s a little sweeter than I like it to be but still good. Note to maybe ask for less sweet. Got a cute little loose leaf tea with a cat keychain on it. Super cute things to look at and really has a chill vibe. Parking downtown is a bit annoying.

What a cute boba tea spot!! Sunday early evening when things are calm with the live futbol is best. Visit this darling independent, one of a kind shop for an amazing tea scene. Unfortunately, actual traditional iced tea is super watered down.

I was actually delivering to the Eli Tea and was served a tea when I was leaving. It was incredible! I’m very picky about tea. Not always my first choice but I am definitely coming back here. Super friendly!

Eli Tea Bar is a quaint, enjoyable tea bar right in the center of town. Meet a friend or just stop in for a drink to carry with you— Eli has something for everyone. Kombucha on tap, traditional bubble teas with tapioca pearls or jellies and over 50 loose leaf teas. Lemonades (including butterfly pea flower combinations) and lattes with a variety of milk substitutes are all delicious. I haven’t tried the cheese teas (sweetened iced black tea with liquid cheesecake on top) because there are at least 2 dozen drinks I already love on their menu that I haven’t felt the need yet. Eli Tea is cheerful and the location is fantastic, as is their tea.

This is a really hip place.A nice place where you can read a book and enjoy a really nice beverage. It's a small place so get there early if you want somewhere to sit. They put in big tables recently which seem too big for the place, but provide a little bit more seating. They really need to expand.
