FAVORITE TEA SHOP!! I frequently shop here for herbs, teas and accessories. The team has lots of knowledge and is very helpful. The monthly Sunday tea/herb classes with Nicolette are the cherry on top of a wonderful shop already. 10/10 will come again!
Good customer service.
Went for a tea class, very informative and enjoyable, huge tea selection, owner and husband were kind and funny.
Went to their tea class 101. As much as I love tea, I didn't realize there was so much I didn't know about tea. The owner is so knowledgeable, friendly and just a joy to engage with. The variety of loose leaf teas was slightly overwhelming, but tastings during the class helped me make decisions. Prices were very reasonable. Parking can be difficult but hey, it's Squirrel Hill.
This tea shop is an absolute gem! Cozy, bright, and welcoming, it’s the perfect place for a tea lover like me. It has EVERYTHING! The staff is incredibly helpful, and Margaret, the owner, went above and beyond to help me choose some amazing green teas. I purchased two of her recommendations, and I’m absolutely in love with both. Margaret’s thoughtfulness made my experience so special. I’ve already recommended this shop to all my friends, both in and outside of Pittsburgh. I can’t wait to attend one of their tea courses in the future. Highly recommend!
so many different teas to choose from! they provide an easily accessible sample of each in a mason jar on the shelves built accessible the wall so that u can look at, and open jar to smell each kind which was extraordinarily helpful in making my decisions.
Wonderful selection of teas and the
Excellent products
Really nice little shop. Prices are fair and selection is good. Decent selection of Chinese teas for gong fu but definitely caters more to flavored and herbal tea drinkers. The woman who runs the shop is very kind and has even replaced a broken gaiwan lid for me at no charge. At least 2 times I've gone I've been given samples to try out and that's a very nice gesture. One complaint is that parking is difficult on the street, but that is no fault to the shop.
Highly reccomend the jasmine dragon pearls, white silver needle jasmine, monkey picked golden hunnan, golden monkey, milk oolong, and organic TKY oolong.
Margaret and everyone there are always friendly and knowledgeable. Great selection of teas.

Absolutely best place for tee in greater Pittsburgh area. Selection is absolutely great, personal is very helpful and service is great
I love it there. They have a great selection of British foods. They give me a piece of England. Very kind workers. Amazing stock
Tons of tea to choose from, tea accessories, kettles, and delicate tea cups with saucers. You can choose pre packaged teas, or request a mix of tea ingredients.
This place is a real jewel: amazing selection of teas, very convenient, nice employees.
Amazing collection of loose leaf teas with the best prices around. And always wonderful customer service every time I visited. I've since moved out of the area but still place orders online monthly and they always arrive promptly and well packaged.
