TeaLee's is a wonderful calming experience to gather with friends or just give yourself a serene atmosphere to just chill. You can sit back enjoy a variety of teas, pastries or fresh organic entrees from the menu. The quiche is my favorite!

Delightful Sunday, brunch and tea today! Loved the charming and cozy atmosphere. TeaLee’s is unpretentious yet full of character. I enjoyed the relaxed pace - being able to sip my tea and savor made-to-order quiche and crab cakes and not feel rushed. I was fortunate to be able to park on the street in front of the establishment, but nice to have the convenience of a paid parking lot across the street. Next time, I will enjoy some tea downstairs in their lovely book room.

A wonderful experience at this hidden gem in the 5 Points neighborhood. Excellent service by the warm and friendly staff. I asked for a recommendation on a sweet selection then requested to be surprised by the chef’s choice. She did not disappoint! The tea cookie she baked that morning melted in my mouth and had a lovely subtle flavor of sweet potato. The salmon cucumber toastie was delicious was well balanced with Kewpie mayo and rosemary. The jade oolong tea was a great match with the meal selection. Planning on a return visit in the near future!

7/10. Quaint store with wide tea selection. Huge profit margins on teas, I expected a pot to be refillable since you’re literally just topping water with the tea leaves. But they just give the plain tea and that’s it. Could learn a thing from the Chinese. Still, tasty teas, and a downstairs filled with many Black focused books. Can probably host 15-20 people in both floors. Though most are couple tables. Nice fusion music played. They had very limited food options when we arrived, but that’s okay. Staff were alright, the nice counter lady Risa was very pleasant to interact with. Come here for a decent tea experience.

Absolutely adored the atmosphere of this place. I wish I had decided to get the pot of tea because I was hoping to have the tea cup or glass mug experience. 🫖 There was an event so I couldn’t try the thing I originally wanted, but really enjoyed the vegan barbecue sandwich! I’m not up that way very often but I’ll try to make an exception sometime soon because it was a really cool place. Can’t remember how I originally found out about this place but I’m so glad that I did.
