This time, I came with my sister in law. Had the best time sampling teas by smelling their bouquet before deciding on a pot of chai, which we shared. Her lemon bread was delicious - not too heavy, with a wonderful lemony overtone. (I already knew my flower-shaped shortbread would be very tasty - and now that I've enjoyed it several times, I might try the baklava next ;)
The service was friendly and unobtrusive (as usual), and the space itself never fails to enchant me. All for a worthy cause, too. I did get lost one Winter afternoon in a book that follows a trafficked girl's life - had a cozy sofa all to myself... But their menu items can be take-out just as easily.
Humanitea is my go-to in Ludington for a nice a.m. or afternoon cuppa, alone or with others. (Did I mention it's a great place to meet up with a friend for a good long chat?!

Read morePerfect, peaceful, friendly, and delicious; what more could you need. My wife and I are frequent visitors to this little crack in the wall, but once inside it's anything but. From lates, to lemonade, and every tea in between; you'll be welcomed, cared for, and set to enjoy every drink and pastry this shop offers. Regardless of how you view tea, just for the atmosphere and beautiful gift baskets you NEED to stop here. Even if just for a chat. Money goes to a great cause and they always advocate for awareness for the voices u heard about human trafficking. Their hearts are big, and their prices small. Everything you need...
