At Tea, we know that what we put in directly affects what you get out. So, we source only the finest, loose-leaf teas on the planet and treat them with the respect they deserve.
In the tea shop we only use filtered, oxygenated water and we carefully control the temperature and timing to achieve the best results. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and our teas have been carefully selected to provide a tipple for all times of the day and all palates.
Situated just metres away from St Paul’s Cathedral, Tea takes the idea of a traditional tearoom and gives it a fresh, contemporary twist. As well as reviving the concept of the UK’s favourite drink, Tea dispenses with pomp and ceremony and has created a haven from the hustle and bustle of the City. In the tea shop we have created an environment for our customers to take time out to sit, enjoy, relax, reflect, chat, don’t chat, read the papers, drink tea, and eat cake.
However, we are also realists and understand that life in the 21st century is not always as time friendly as we would like; mobile phones, Blackberry, a hectic work schedule all conspire to put huge pressure on our valuable time. That is why all of our teas are perfectly brewed in 90 seconds and are available to takeaway; with the emphasis on convenience as well as quality. Our secret is simple and boils down to basic physics; we use more tea leaves to reduce the time that it takes to infuse the leaves thus providing you with a perfect cup of tea while ensuring that you still make your 8.30 meeting.
