Wonderful small tea House in the heart of Verdun. They have a wonderful selection of tea products and their prices are very fair, ranging from 4-10$ (rounded) per pot of tea. Would definitely recommend the mint tea, wonderful experience, as well as the silver leaf tea. They also serve light foods, chocolates, cookies, dim sum, and so on. The sweets themselves are infused with some of the teas that the shop sells. Teas are also available in loose leaf so you can grab them and take them home to brew yourself. They also have a wonderful selection of tea "equipment" kettles, pots, sets and the like. If nothing else this wonderfully quaint establishment is worth a visit, just to grab a quick pot of tea. Not a big deal to me, but, on busy days, service can be a bit slow, but, I can assure you, your patience will be rewarded by one of the best local treasures...

Tea pots and other accessories are available for purchase as well, makes for...

They have a beautiful collection of tea pots and cups, always fun to get a new tea pot and see which one we will get with our next order. Although I haven’t been there because I don’t enjoy dining outdoors, they have an outdoor terrace that I hear is very beautiful! Very accepting and welcoming to queer couples as well, it’s beautiful to see. My granddaughter and her girlfriend love coming here and always enjoy themselves. This is a place I tell all my friends who enjoy tea about, a really beautiful small business that I hope continues to...
