'Alice in Wonderland meets tea at The Ritz' (Daily Express, August 2009) - http://www.dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/122995/Raise-a-cup-to-the-new-girls-night-out-I

In spectacular surroundings, our tea shop is perfect for those looking for an alternative reception venue.  It is stylish and intimate and certainly has the wow factor with breathtaking views of St. Paul’s Cathedral; yet it remains relaxed and informal.  Tea is available for private events for parties of up to 80 people as a drinks reception with afternoon tea.  You can bring your own booze and there is no corkage. Please email info@wearetea.com for further details. 

‘Cheerily nestled in the shadow of St Paul’s Cathedral... it's certainly cooler than afternoon tea at the Ritz.’ - http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/restaurants/tea-review-25606.html  (July 2007).

‘Fine tea (actually it was the finest Earl Grey I tasted during my week in London, but I'm just a tourist...). Good location, nice staff... I would recommend the place to all my friends.’ - http://www.urbanpath.com/london/cafes/tea.htm  (November 2007).

‘...This is an elegant but unpretentious cafe not surprisingly specialising in tea and, not just any tea, but a wide range of quality loose leaf teas...They say, “our philosophy is to offer fresh, wholesome and tasty foods that complement teas” and they live up to that...This is the sort of place I long for in my home town – to be able to drop in any time and be assured of a good pot of tea. Don’t miss this one if you visit London.’ - Margaret Thornby’s Tea & Tea Room Talk, Winter 2008

‘...the way a cuppa is meant to be slurped.’ - http://www.londontown.com/LondonInformation/Restaurant/Tea/bf82/

‘I visited Tea over the weekend (on a trip from Edinburgh). Very impressed, really enjoyed my visit (and the wonderful Oolong tea).’ — Chris Lynch, 4 March 2008, Edinburgh

‘By chance, in January, my husband and I dropped into “Tea” after attending church at St. Paul’s. Your food was lovely and your shop so charming and comfortable – we had a very relaxed and enjoyable time!’ - Leanne Lewis, 31 March 2008, Canada

Tea has also been featured in: ELLE magazine (What’s Hot in 2008), Waitrose Food Illustrated, Daily Candy, CNBC European Business, The American, The London Paper, The Evening Standard, Livewire and many other publications.
