Nicol ChongOctober 17, 2014Their loose tea leaves are really nice. You can taste the natural tastes of the tea leaves. A nice place to chat with your friends too. Just might need to wait for a table.
No sugar added in cocoa&orange and cherries&hazelnuts bars. Any drink can also be done without sweeteners if you'd like. Great!
Alyssa DaughertyJanuary 8, 2014Tea specialist nice to have such a big selection. I went with the highly recommended chili chili bang bang it was delicious! Lots of seating which is hard to find in central
Kornelija MaceviciuteJanuary 30, 2018Matcha tea is lighter than usual, but very lovely to drink still. More seating downstairs than up. Loved the soya matcha youghurt with strawberries.
Trish LimMay 27, 2014Cozy ambiance, free wifi. Wide selection of teas. Went with the black chai tea latte & it was pretty awesome. And the banana Nutella bread was awesome too! 👍
- Géraldine MullerFebruary 13, 2017Delicious matcha beverages and pastries (including lactose free options) in a cosy atmosphere. The matcha spoons are a cool accessory to get there as well.
New York HabitatMarch 22, 2012Great place to take a break from the hectic shopping at Oxford Street. Relax next to one of the large windows with a big cup of tea or coffee and watch the busy bees walk by.
Hannah ParvazJanuary 11, 2016If they have any, make sure you get the matcha iced drinks. Such intense and delicious flavour.
Huge, huge range of loose teas for preparation in shop. The Lapsang Soushong is a favourite of mine.
Martin EdenNovember 9, 2015Lovely as always. Of their two Earl Grey blends, I recommend Blue Star over Midnight Grey.
Mary Colette NatashaMarch 4, 2015One of my favourite place in London. Very warm, cosy, peaceful, great staff, perfect to read or work. And of course amazing tea.
Danny WhatmoughAugust 22, 2011Excellent coffee. There is one power socket right at the back in the corner furthest from the door. Haven't ventured downstairs. Free wifi is available (password from the bar) but not that reliable...
Remi LefevreJuly 20, 2013A few very fine tea vintages to be found at a very reasonable price, especially the Assam TGFOP, plus the Nutella Banana bread is delicious.
O'kissApril 11, 2015Great tea room! Moody... Great selection of tea for everybody's taste! Nice stuff, relaxing music! Enjoy!
Joanna SuchomskaFebruary 20, 2015Overwhelming selection of teas, and you can smell each one before choosing! Try the apricot apple cake, delicious.
Nassia WAugust 22, 2016Had an iced matcha latte with an almond milk. Bit peculiar idk, but the place is very lively and good for a date or catchup
Puppala DupiOctober 2, 2015High quality selection of both straight and fusion teas. Organic style approach to cakes. Great vibe
Erin BApril 5, 2015Head downstairs for more spacious seating. Enchanted Forest green tea is a personal favorite!- All time pop in place when fabric shopping on Berwick. Regent's park tea and a banana bread loaf and life is great!
MissyFebruary 3, 2016great tea selection and yummy treats! Relaxed atmosphere for a break from the city.
Constance | @croostifoodiJanuary 17, 2016Cosy place with a large selection of teas. Chai latte was very good.- Erin BApril 5, 2015Head downstairs for more spacious seating. Enchanted Forest green tea is a personal favorite.
Free wifi, amazing vanilla scone and fresh loose leaf teas. Never goes wrong. Wifi much stronger downstairs.
AndreaMarch 14, 2013Enchanted Garden tea had a nice aroma but could have been stronger, the lemon drizzle cake was good, moist at the top (where the drizzle is), but a bit dry at the bottom. Wifi is extremely weak.
Geniya K⛵October 19, 2012Brownie is the best in london! Notting hill, walk in the woods and blueberry hill are favorite tea flavors
- Giovanni VanzoOctober 4, 2014Great variety of blends in a super cozy shop. Trying Chilli Chilli Bang BangChilChilli
Nikkayla HenricksenNovember 25, 2015Favourite tea house in London. All their specials blends are fantastic.
Matt BoothmanNovember 6, 2012If it's a wide and interesting range of teas you're after, there's nowhere better. If you're in a hurry, try somewhere else. Good things come to those who...
Alexander DubovoyJanuary 22, 2017Good place to work and good (not too too expensive) selection of loose leaf teas to buy
It's a nice place with a good selection of teas and snacks, however the cutlery and cups are often dirty, and there are always fruit flies looking for an adventure in the cake shelves.
Eladio GomezJanuary 3, 2014Great place, but the special offer (50% for a coffee and cake) is no longer available
Rachael CummingsJanuary 19, 2013Try the Chilli Chilli Bang Bang...it's awesome and good central heating on freezy days like today.
Robbin RoseDecember 12, 2012Large shop, free wifi, and plenty of power outlets- good place to get some work done.
Ade BrownApril 21, 2014Ask for advice from the staff about what you may like... you won't be disappointed
The tea is as good as ever. However, baked goods need major improvements. Do not attempt scones, not only they don't have simple plain ones, they're often raw and doughy in the middle.
Danielle FoxJuly 8, 2014Chai latte and a gluten free chocolate brownie, same order every time, never disappointed :)
Oliver ShreeveAugust 7, 2014Expect the people in front of you to spend at least 10 minutes sniffing the tea before they take a seat
Emily DaggettSeptember 26, 2012Really good tea and cakes, and a nice place to sit and do work or read.
