This is for the online website where I purchased loose tea. I bought 2 mystery sample size bags of tea with my order. They put the same tea in the order for both which doesn't even sound good. Now the problem is I placed a second order for 5 mystery sample bags of tea. Watch, I'm going to end up with 5 more of the same tea I just received in my order. Sample teas are just that, not duplicates of the same tea. Never doing that again. If you're going to give multiples of the same tea as mystery samples then state as much. In case anyone is wondering, they put in SPARKLING RASPBERRY WINE and I don't even drink wine. 🙄
Update: I made a cup, not great, it had an over abundance of actual twigs/sticks, had a bitter bite to it, hint of sweetness. I'll have to mix it with something else so not to throw it away.
UPDATE 2:
YUP, THEY GAVE ME 5 MORE SAMPLES OF SPARKLING RASPBERRY WINE
WHAT A RIP OFF!

I have been a customer for years at this restaurant, and today I came in with my young child and asked if we could use the restroom- I was told emphatically the answer was no. I was shocked . Proctors was closed and there were no nearby options for a bathroom. I asked again and was told no again. I will never buy anything here again.
Delicious brunch here when we were in the area. Little pricey, but would go back and recommend. Food was great quality!

Imagine letting this sandwich leave your restaurant? $20 for a tiny piece of bread.
You would need a microscope to find the turkey.

I just had the best turkey avocado sandwich I've ever had, literally! Delicious and not a big mess to eat. The lobster bisque and banana foster crepe were unbelievably delicious and the waitress was awesome! The afternoon tea allows you to have all three at a good price and full portions! Highly recommend this place. A heck of a lot more than tea! Wish I lived in Schenectady!

Incredible variety of teas— and when I couldn’t finish mine, the server offered me a to-go cup to transfer the rest! Cobb salad was good enough and atmosphere was welcoming

Food was phenomenal, not too busy at noon on a weekend too. Service was great, Logan was down to earth and relaxed, combined with the atmosphere inside it goes a long way. Felt very relaxing and lively at the same time. Up there with my favorites for food!

Such a cute place to eat with a wide variety of tea and great food! Love the layout of the Jay Street location and had a wonderful time during my visit here on Labor Day (major bonus they were open!)

My favorite brunch/lunch spot in the Capital Region! I love their selection of teas and appreciate that you can order teas found on the retail wall that aren't on the menu — my favorite is the genmaicha. Their service is very quick, and I love to mix and match dishes with their afternoon tea. Occasionally my garden sandwich has been a bit soggy or undercooked, but there are so many options on the menu that there's always something new to try. I've even come here solo just to read my book and have a cup of tea and a crepe for breakfast because it's such a nice atmosphere.
