I think T2 have perfected the tea supply shop concept. Walking in is a delight to the senses — with plenty to look at, touch, smell and taste. The service here is always terrific and whether you’re interested in trying out some new brews and need some guidance, or if you’re in a mad rush and want to simply pop in and out to pick up your favourite, they’ll always respond accordingly. Over the years I’ve tried a lot of the teas, but I always go back to the French Earl Grey. I buy the tea-bag format in bulk and pack them when I travel so I don’t have to resort to boring hotel room tea bags. They have an excellent assortment of cups and teapots here also, making it an ideal place to buy gifts for friends.
