I went to this place and tried their bubble tea, I found staff a bit rude. I asked to have my bubble tea without ice to which the reply I got was this is what bubble tea looks like (pointing to their advert) and NO we cannot do it without ice. I can certainly say that bubble tea does not usually look like crashed ice in normal world. Anyways, one star for service and one star for crushed iced bubble tea that does not even taste nice.

The perfect place for sitting down and getting some work done. Huge selection of tea, free and easy to connect to WiFi, and a good amount of seating. Additionally, the staff is very friendly. When I selected some of the more "out-there" teas they offered a cashier said I should smell it first and after making it said that if I didn't enjoy it she would make another one.

There were two downsides I noticed. There were not many power outlets (only two accessible in the building) so if you needed one and it was busy you'd be hard-pressed to get access to one. Additionally the music is a little loud, although not enough to bleed through a nice pair of headphones. I took a few calls while there and received comments about the background noise of the place even when there was no conversation going on around me. A trade-off for atmosphere vs a long-term work solution.

Really great place for anyone who loves tea, huge selection of teas, milks and snacks. Gluten-free and vegan snacks on offer as well as non-dairy milks. They have a dedicated matcha menu as well as coffees. The staff in my experience have been friendly enough. There is indoor and outdoor seating. So far every tea I have had here has been delicious, though slightly on the pricey side. I would recommend this place if you would like to meet friends or grab a quick coffee/tea alone or with others.

Lads served cherry tea with mint, who does that. Cherry is sick on its own. Claimed it had tea 'Tea hot to handle (xd)' but mine was cold. False advertising Amanzi tea. You're lucky we aren't in court right now.

The opening of Amanzi Tea is a little revolution in itself. You ll find them in Marylebone and walking by, would think it is a tea room like any other. But just step in, look at their selection wall and marvel at the fantastic range. Each drawer can be opened, allowing you to enjoy the fragrance and see the shape of the leaves, of how they have been matched to dried fruit, spices, petals. Black, green, white teas, Oolongs, Rooibos and to my surprise even mate. It is extremely rare to see this Argentinian herb served anywhere here let alone find two flavoured kinds, a tropical and a caramel one! Even better if you re a mum: the infusions include specially designed ones for kids. No caffeine, sweeter flavours yet not sugary. I brought back the Lullaby, naturally caffeine free and meant for the evening, a gentle blend of Rooibos, chamomile, sweet fennel and lavender. A great gift for new mums, by the way.

The menu is very complete. The chais are the best in town, slightly nutty, so very frosty. And you really get the best of everything as they prepare bubble teas too with flavoured tapioca pearls. I have a real passion for the honeydew melon with cherry pearls, so beautiful and terribly addictive. I wish I could tell you more about the other flavours but I can t resist ordering that one again and again.

What more can I add? Their preparation is impeccable, filtered water for the best quality, water temperature under control, carefully timed infusions. Coffees also appear in the menu to keep all customers happy, as are soya milk and gluten free cakes. It will take you months to try everything. I am more into simple, natural tastes (jasmine pearls, sencha, genmaicha ) but the blends are fascinating: Bohemian passion, Orange spice cookies, Ginger peach, Limoncello to name but a few. Each can be served hot, iced or even in a virgin cocktail just ask! Definitely something for everyone and an endless source of gifts, including glass teapots and great cups to infuse your choice, like the adorable one below.

Smoothing music and atmosphere, very peaceful. But most importantly the iced blended honeydew melon bubble tea with strawberry bubbles is delicous! The bubbles are sensational and burst with a strong refreshing taste of the strawberry. Best place to go!!

The place is nice with a real good variety of teas. Certainly a must for tea enthusiasts but beware of service with an attitude and how. The staff pretends to have just walked out of Kensington Palace itself! We were with a 2 month old who needed to be nursed and the staff couldn't be bothered to bring our tea to the table even after we had especially requested/pleaded them too. Service with smile? Forget about It! Service with dollop of attitude... Amanzi tea is for you!

Trendy and modern tea house, serving nice teas but at quite a price. The tea house was fun however I didn't feel comfortable and left quite soon after my drink had been finished. I wasn't given a pot so there was no chance of a refill.

Here it is probably one of the best coffees that I ve ever tasted. This place has a wonderful taste of coffee with the perfect temperature. The coffee was pretty good, and also their hot special chocolate. Theircoffee/teaserved in a very special way, I like the concept of their decoration and setup, with a high quality of amenities and facilities. The interior is very relaxed and the service is good. Really the best coffee in town!

Great teas and nice service, I'm becoming a regular. Chai latte is particularly good, might be too sweet for some, but it's really good. Classic bubble tea only come iced, which is pretty good but if it's cold outside you can add bubbles to any regular tea.
Too much sugar in the cakes

Amanzi Tea is a beautiful tea shop in a great location! The white tea/pear is delicious! I am addicted to this tea and love going here also for there chocolate bar cakes! The atmosphere of the shop is inviting with a lovely decor, its a hidden gem in Marylebone. The tea has great health benefits too! Highly recommend!

Nice place but be wary buying the glasses for home use. I poured water at 85 degree into a glass that I purchased a couple of months back. It glass exploded in my kitchen. It destroyed our oven and went everywhere, I ended up throwing out the rest of the glasses i purchased - too much of a risk.

I love this place for the bubble teas but am quite disappointed with the Hot matcha latte as the matcha taste is very mild and the drink is a pale green.

When I enquired with the staff, they said it's because I ordered it with semi-skimmed milk (which they suggested when I was ordering) and will have to charge me again if I want to switch it to one with normal milk.

Amanzi is a generally nice place for teas but if you are expecting an authentic matcha latte, this is not the place for it.

The unsweetened Matcha Latte with Almond milk is AMAZING! Relaxing vibe. The vibe is simple and functional. Not the coziest tea room but does the job and the quality of the tea is what s the most important.
