This is my favorite tea shop in NYC. I've been coming here for years now. The loose leaf teas are reasonably priced. You're looking at the whole range of teas, from $ to $$$. It's a great place to buy 1/4 lb of different teas to try things out at home. I'm not sure about the coffee, but I've once encountered a couple that comes here regularly from upstate, just to stock up on coffee. So that says something good about it.

As for the service, they're an excellent NYC establishment. There's another review that said the service was terrible, but I strongly disagree. If you're looking for a white glove establishment that will wait on you hand and foot the moment you walk in, this is not the place (maybe try Te Company). If you're looking for a place that lets you shop, smell, and peruse in peace first (then follow up with help when you're ready), this is the place. This is absolutely my preferred tea shop for the variety, knowledge of staff, and atmosphere. It's relaxing and no fuss but with the high quality tea I've learned to love and enjoy.

I get all my teas and coffee beans here. There's a spectacular selection of loose teas from all over the world and a wide variety of coffee sold with whole beans or ground for you. They even have fair trade coffee beans.

It was my first time visiting your Coffee Shop and I was very satisfied with the service that you provided. Your staves were all very professional and friendly. The place was also very cleaned and organized. I must strongly recommend your Coffee Shop to all of my family and friends. Cheers for more customers!

Ordered the cookie monster latte, which while very pretty tasted watery and did not have a strong espresso flavor. I'd recommend giving it a try if it's your first time, but I personally probably wouldn't come back with so many other amazing coffee shops in the city.

The smell you receive when you walk through the doors is a sign of the quality of the teas and coffees in this tiny tea shop in the west village. Not very expensive and extremely high quality of teas. Worth a visit just to stick your nose in some of their teas and get a whiff. I purchased enough tea for 50 cups of tea and only spent 10 dollars. Amazing tea shop and coffee store.

A wonderful old shop, crowded with all sorts of loose and boxed teas as well as coffee. The staff is friendly, but there is no self-service, so there is usually a wait to get your selections.
