Every single thing here is so delicious, the vibes and events are immaculate, Eli and all the staff are so wonderful, but that pink Kashmiri chai? When they roll that out every winter, things just get taken up to a whole new level of incredible. Just the best spot in Andersonville!

I tried the Smoked Hot Chocolate, and I really loved it. It’s warm, smooth, and not too sweet. The light smoky flavor makes it unique and very comforting. The atmosphere is cozy, artistic, and inviting. Beautiful teapots, tea shelves, soft lighting, and thoughtful details make the space feel calm and creative. A perfect place to slow down and enjoy the moment. I’ll definitely come back.

I had the pumpkin spice tea latte, and the Traverse cherry iced tea and they were both delicious. I feel as though pumpkin spice can be a hit or miss, but this was totally a hit . My friend had the blood orange, which was very nice and floral. The staff could be a little bit more engaging and helpful due to the fact that there’s so many options but overall very nice place to go and have tea even in the evening. They have many caffeine free options.

You’ll come back for the matcha and stay for the community. This place serves a comprehensive tea selection and expertly crafted drinks. The thing I love most is that owner has gone above and beyond to create a safe inclusive space for the recovering and sober curious community. They host a diverse line-up of monthly and weekly events where you’ll willing put down your phone and engage with someone IRL…

It's a very well decorated cafe with lots of seating and merch. Their menu is extensive to a staggering degree, though unfortunately of the three people who ordered with me, two of the drinks were messed up. Still getting 4 stars because the vibes were great, they host community events weekly, and the staff was very polite and kind.
