It has the cutest little white picket fence. You walk in and are absorbed by different teas, spices, and herbs. And not in a teavana way, this place is so welcoming, like your grandmas house. They had some really awesome, hard to find and unique spices, like myrrh. They also had a TON of brands of tea, different styles, something for everyone. They had a separate room for tea. Pretty much, you can pick anything you want and they'll make a fresh cup for you right there. My fiancé was in love. They sold all the tea accessories, like matcha bowls and whisks, strainers, mugs. Everything you can think of. And then, in the mix of this, is art and antiques. Delicately placed, almost like it was all meant to be there, but you can buy it all. And some cute items too, including some beautiful furniture. We could have hung out for hours here, it's so cool and unique. Highly recommend a stop in.

Second, maybe they had an off day because they did not realize it was Mothers Day weekend. 30 minute wait, standing at the door to be seated. Plenty of open tables in view of the front door, but the staff was clearly overwhelmed. Two teas and two sandwiches. 1 hour wait for drinks and food to arrive at the table. 90 minutes total from arrival to service. I admit Tea Houses are not "fast food" as there sign reads... However, 90 minutes total get Tea in a Tea House is way beyond reasonable. All in all it was a nice concept, I don't think we will be back. I see photos of Tea Menus in other reviews. If they existed today, they were not offered.

I am unsure what the service is like nor how the ambiance is like, but I do know that this food is delicious and it made me extremely full.

It always bums me when I have to remove a star from a local business. My last three visits to…read moreTeaspoon Cafe have not been what it use to be. However, the people of Edwardsville still love Teaspoons, because it was packed. Things that disappointed me on my last visit that made me decide to take a star away: They are now serving Kaldi's Coffee a STL roaster. I think it is a shame that they are not supporting one of the many local roasters on the Illinois side of the river. Was disappointed that their iced coffee lids were not sip lids. I prefer them, because I am not a fan of straws. I know some people need or prefer straws, but I like the option of not using one. Save the Turtles. Biggest disappointment was my food. I ordered the Breakfast Platter. My scrambled eggs were fluffy and hot and made fresh. They were very good. The English Muffin was also good. It was obvious it was freshly toasted, because the whipped butter spread and melted easily. The disappointments were the bacon and potatoes. Both were cold and tough. It was obvious that both sides were prepared ahead of time. The bacon did have good flavor, but it was chewy and rubbery. My potatoes were on the burnt side of preparation and cold and chewy like the bacon. Damn, when I've ordered this before it was good, not this time. I will at least say, the service and customer service is still good and consistent with what I've had before. Which actually saved them from getting two stars.

Every tea I've ever had here has been off the charts. They have caffeine free options, too! The teapot for two is excellent. I am a sucker for a pick two because I like a lil diversity. The ceasar salad is great. Big fan of the teaspoon pesto sandwich. My partner raves about the chicken croissant and always gets a side salad with olive oil. The workers are nice. Its seat yourself with a number and they clear the table when you're finished. Easy place to bring kids. Plenty of options for seating! Personally love the booth option.

I will say I did like my latte equally to other coffee chains. I look forward to trying more drinks here.

It came out quick. The pickles were very juicy as well as the tomato, it was also very fresh. The patty was a well cooked smash burger that was very delicious.
