This is my favourite tea shop! Huge selection of good quality teas in a variety of sizes whether you just want a taste or stock up at very reasonable prices. All the teas are on the shelves for you to explore on your own, not like other tea shops where they are kept behind the counter. That being said, the staff working there are extremely helpful and will help you find the tea that you are looking for. They have seasonal sampler packs for Christmas, Valentines Day, etc. that are great for gifts or to try out some new teas. They also have iced tea slushies to-go which are great!

This tea shop has been around forever and I almost always make a point to stop by whenever I’m in Stratford. The front of the store caries beautiful ceramic tea pots and mugs, plus accessories like tea cozies, steepers, etc. The back of the store carries their large selection of loose leaf teas that are well-organized in categories(black, green, white, rooibos, herbal, yerba mate). You are free to browse with a basket and smell all the lovely aromas(unlike places like David’s where teas are kept behind the counter). The prices are reasonable at about $ 11 per 100g(slightly more for white teas). If you feel like a refreshing iced tea or a warm cup of tea to go, they also have that available.

Lovely large collection of teas at good prices.(About $ 5 for 50 grams). They also sell teas in small 10g bags so you can take a few home to taste before you buy in larger portions. A great idea, and with most teas at $ 1.75 for a small bag, a small indulgence.
