They also have several different types of jewelries and some apparels. These items are somewhat pricey as they are mostly exported from Asia.

It was prepared swiftly within a minute by very friendly staff member. The tea was decent price ($5) and had excellent flavor. Overall a must try spot for any tea lover visiting in this area.

My sister-in-law and I go shopping exactly once a year, in December, and yesterday was the day…read more She excitedly told me that a good friend of hers had strongly recommended Tea Market and had been a customer for years. Cute location, cute shop, we even found a great parking space, things were looking good! And then we went in, ready to spend. There were three total people in the store (us included), it was midday on a Wed (just setting the scene in case you are thinking it was a busy Saturday; it wasn't!) My SIL asked the owner if she could recommend specific products for her friend, gave her the friend's name, etc. Instead of saying "gosh, I really can't look up what she bought but I can recommend some fan faves!" she went with the "you know, I've been here 22 years and I have 12,000 customers" route and seemed incredibly put-out. My SIL and I were like "wait, what?" We left it alone and browsed for a sec - the owner then took literally 47 seconds to type a name into the computer and did come up with a couple of products for my SIL's friend, but she acted like we were asking her to violate HIPAA. This store has plenty of tea, and I totally get why other people love it. I also get why December is hard on small businesses and maybe the owner was just having a bad day. For me, the unfortunate part of our visit wasn't the tea, which I'm sure is....fine? It was seeing the light go out of my big-hearted SIL's eyes when she realized the owner was not remotely interested in connecting with an eager customer. I might add that our stop immediately before this was The Corner Candleshop in Brookside and the difference was mind-blowing. They were lovely, engaged, helpful, and we can't wait to return. I wish I felt the same about Tea Market.

Located at the intersection of 135th St in a very safe yet easy to miss mini-strip mall, Revocup is…read morea high level coffee experience! First of all, be sure not to blink because the sign isn't very visable and the location is unassuming from the outside, abeit a very clean exterior. Walking in, I love the vibe, trendy but not pretentious, grounded yet modern and a fair amount of people but not overflowing. Yessiree Bob, this is my kind of place. Oh and the baristas are patient, kind and willing to offer advice based on your individual tastes. I've been here several times; however, my eating habits preclude me from indulging in anything outside of berries. Do the apple fritters, donuts, muffins and other items look outstanding, of course they do. In fact, my buddy whom I generally meet there has raved how good the pastries are and after living in Austin and trying home made poptarts, I'm still kicking myself for not trying them. However, the path to maintaining a healthy weight and figure is paved in discipline. I must admit they nailed the ambiance. The cement floors are patterned with what looks like dark wood textured tiles and the walls are a warm burgundy, emitting a certain visual warmth. The hanging art amuses me, sometimes it's movie paintings, sometimes its modern art while other times it's eclectic and I've never figured out their rotation, but I appreciate it. The hanging lamps offer a bit of 2010 mod while the open coffee service area proudly displays all of the tools of an expert craftsman. The counter area has a small display case enticing the sweet tooth and the chalk boards give a simplistic view of their menu, but they also offer daily "experiments" that are fun to sample. The first time I came, I tried the Café Au Lait which was very strong, robust and full of lasting flavor. The 12oz amount seemed to be about perfect for my needs. The next time I dropped by I sampled the Dulce de Leche which was a mistake. Why, you might be wondering? Because I've never ordered anything else since then and I always get the 16oz. It's smooth, a little softer on the coffee flavor while balancing it with the strong caramel notes. I know it's probably got more calories than I want, but hey, that's why I'm not eating! They also have some pretty good selection of home ground coffees from places like Ethiopia, Costa Rica, Brazil and other far, far away locations. Come to think of it I don't recall if they have any Hawaiian beans which are pretty trendy now (Kona is a great coffee!!) Oh I forgot to mention they do have a fast wifi but please for the love of God, don't be that geek in the corner pretending to write the great American novel in the corner. That's so.... 2000s.... Overall, this is my favorite coffee shop in Overland Park and it's not even close. Stop on by for the best coffee experience you'll have in the area!

I was so surprised and delighted when the experience included choosing my own tiny tea cup. I've seen it super busy on a weekend, but never so bad you could'nt find a seat. They have a rotating experimental drink which is pretty cool. Sometimes they don't have menu items -- but I actually find that to be a good thing. It means stock isn't sitting around past it's quality date. Note -- the portions are a little small. It's more about the quality and the savoring of an experience -- rather than a giant drink. Also the AC is a little stronger and the bathrooms are pretty cold. But the Japanese toilet seats are heated!
