    Tea flight
    Luis G.

    Serenity has been found at SereniTea! The definition of a hidden gem in the north Austin/Cedar park area. What an amazing place and is a 5/5 must visit for anyone who's a fanatic of tea (and coffee too! ) The staff were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I'm not a tea enthusiast by any means but this was such an enjoyable experience and the menu is loaded with options that anyone can enjoy! Seating is pretty spacious and parking isn't terrible in the shopping center it's tucked away into. We ordered a flight of the blueberry bliss, citrus spice infusion, emerald energy (a blend of matcha and sencha that I highly recommend), and the spicy masala. You get to order a milk of your choice as well (love the fact that there were lactose free options!) and a blueberry scone. I cannot believe I've been missing out this entire time. Can't wait to come back and try another flight of other options because the menu is paced with some amazing options. 5/5 overall experience and highly encourage folks to come here!

    I had gone back and forth on whether or not to write a review for this place, but decided to make my thoughts known. For context, we came here the second month after their opening, in April 2025. As a longtime tea drinker, I was excited to learn that SereniTea was opening up in Cedar Park. The general Austin area had long been a loose leaf tea desert, with the focus on drinking tea for health benefits and general enjoyment versus the overpopularized bubble tea. It wasn't too hard to find this place off of Bell Blvd, and there was ample parking available. Walking in, we saw an assortment of teas available, complete with the barware to match. There weren't any customers there when we arrived. Yet it took a little while before a worker came out of the kitchen to serve us. We were told to sit anywhere, and after having chosen our table, we were given menus to look at. For what this place is, we thought the prices here are a bit expensive, especially for the specialty and premium teas. We decided to order a flight so we could try out different teas. The teas we ordered were Celestial Empress, Dragons Ember, Jasmine, and White Peony. Unfortunately, it took a long time to fulfill our order. We saw a total of 3 people working to heat up the water, measure out the loose leaf tea, and get all the teapots ready. But still, we ended up waiting about 20 minutes before everything came out. We can understand that they were probably still working out the kinks of running a new business, but we think they could have benefited from a soft opening before announcing their grand opening. Looking at what we were served, we were appalled to see how much tea leaves were wasted in the preparation process. They have tea leaves in both a small cup to allow you to smell the leaves after they have been steeped, and also more tea leaves in the teapots steeping for the tea itself. As for the tea tasting, none were particularly memorable. The teas we chose were from different categories of teas: black, oolong, green, and white. Because the tea leaves were left in the pot with no way to remove them after the tea was done steeping, the teas became oversteeped and developed a bitter taste. This was the case for all four, including the white tea which is usually considered the most palatable. I had the highest hope for the Jasmine tea, which is a delicate tea that tastes other-worldly when prepared and steeped correctly. If oversteeped, the experience is destroyed and you're left with a bitter tea more reminiscent of a poor quality black tea. Though Jasmine is one of my favorite teas to drink (I grew up drinking this since I was a child), I couldn't finish it here because of how bitter the tea became. We were also upset that we couldn't get more hot water added without paying an additional fee. Like, really?!? I don't know of anywhere that charges for water refills. Besides, I thought we were paying for the tea leaves and service, not the water? After bringing up our complaints to the worker, who apparently is one of the owners, we were dismissed as she said that the way they prepared the teas was the only correct way. I don't know if she was just being prideful or if she really thought that she had done well. Either way, it didn't seem like she took criticism well, nor did it seem like she knew the relational intricacies of loose leaf teas, water temp, portion sizes, the length of steeping tea leaves...and many more variables. All in all, our experience had many red flags. I hate to be so critical of small business owners, especially new ones. If this place was a chain, I'd give them one star; but because they're independent, I guess I'll give them two stars.

    I am someone who usually chooses coffee over tea, but after my experience at Serenitea Cup, I think I'm a fan of tea! I didn't know how delicious it could taste. I came here today for a networking group meeting and was so delighted to find a beautiful tea shop like this in Cedar Park. The owner/operator is so passionate about tea, its benefits, and how to prepare it. The enthusiasm for tea is contagious. I can't wait to come back with my daughter and have a tea party. This is also a great meeting space for anyone looking to connect.

    Your Yelper Girl checking in! My sis and I attended a Holiday Tea, and it was such an amazing experience! It is such a cute place! The owner, Lisa, was welcoming and friendly. We were a little early for our tea time, but she made us feel right at home, and we enjoyed looking at her shop. We were seated in a cozy corner and our holiday tea was fantastic! The best tea and the tower of sandwiches and sweet treats was outstanding! We will definitely go again!

    We tried the flight of tea out of our choice of tea cup

    We had great service and delicious tea and lunch. This shop is such a relaxing fun place to visit, we will be back often!

    Love this little gem! It's tucked away in a small strip of shops and my GPS weirdly routed me through the back alley, so ignore that if yours does too. Just turn in the entrance to the shopping center on Bell (old 183). The unassuming exterior was so misleading...this place is SO peaceful and charming inside. I was stunned at how well they've renovated the space. The seating options were plenty and all super comfortable and cute. They have a huge shelf along one wall with different teas and accessories for purchase, and the staff at the order counter greeted us and were so friendly, walking us through the process and making sure we were well taken care of. I had originally planned to grab a quick to-go drink because my five year old was with me, but she was also equally charmed and wanted to stay so we indulged in a hot Spicy Masala Chai tea and a ham and cheddar scone. They truly had milk options for everyone, as well as four sweeteners and local honey on the tables. My daughter was thrilled when I let her pick my teacup I was served from the selection on the shelf. Please note that because the service here is top notch, even a single cup of tea will have a wait. They serve parties in the order they arrive and bring the whole order out on a tea cart and serve your party, so it's well worth the wait. We felt so fancy for our little mother-daughter date. The napkins were amazing quality, and the spoon for my tea was so pretty. Even the toilet paper in the bathroom was so luxurious! They really go all out here to make your visir a treat. On top of that, the scone was soooo buttery delicious that I'm still thinking about it, and same with the spicy masala chai! So glad we have a legit tea shop in town at last!! PS-they also host occasional afternoon tea, and the current price is $45, which is a steal for rhe Austin area!

    Tea flight.

    I'd been seeing the SereniTea sign on S. Bell Blvd. as I sit in traffic. Finally turned into the shopping center. The tea house is sunny, well-organized, and decorated in calming colors. The atmosphere made me want to linger over a cup. The hostess-owner, Lady Tea Lisa, thoroughly explained the different teas, tea services, and events they offer. There are tea classes and afternoon tea events. Even an art class that comes with tea offerings. I settled on a tea flight of black teas and anti-inflammatory tea from the Wellness menu side. The Spiced Earth Pu-erh is smooth and no hint of bitterness. Loved this one. The Spicy Masala and Anti-Inflammatory teas went well together. The Dragon Ember black has a fresh smell and pleasant taste but was not robust enough for me. They give you the tea leaves they steeped so you can sniff the fragrance. I even got to pick the china teacup design. Made the tea flight much more special. Will definitely be back with my friends. I even invited one of my friends to take a class with me. There are some beautiful looking pastries in their display case I am excited to try next visit.

    Accidentally ate the yummy cinnamon scone too fast! This is vanilla chai and golden tea.

I was a little overwhelmed walking in; it's set up like a specialty store, with many different displays to look at and be tempted by, before ever getting to the teas. Everything is also very, very close together. As it was my first visit, I spoke with the employee and she explained the process. I moved to the teas and did some sampling. It was a lot of fun. I can see why people really enjoy coming here and experiencing the variety offered. Plus, being able to sample various teas ensured that the one I selected was something I was happy buying and leaving with. Something that surprised me is that this is a take and go place, which makes sense with the shopping that hits you when you walk in. It just struck me as I bought my tea that I thought, I'd like to sit down and enjoy this, when I realized, oh, you can't do that here. Overall, I'm very glad I finally stopped in and I look forward to future visits.

They offer high-quality flavors which includes mango, coconut, mint, horchata coffee, etc. I have noted that the large drink sizes are a good value for the price. You can save more by taking advantage of their "2-4 happy hour" with half-off teas. The store has a clean, casual but energetic vibe. Costumer service provided by the staff is friendly, polite, welcoming and attentive. So if you are a fan of iced tea, come to this place for your favorite flavor.

So, if a drink needs to be steeped, they will wait until every drink in front of it has been finished to even start the 5-10 minute steeping process, instead of starting to steep the leaves while they work on blended drinks. Three employees wander around aimlessly while dozens of people wait for a single, simple drink. Most other boba places are able to get drinks out within a minute or two. What is your excuse? There is truly no reason for a single milk tea to take 30 minutes. Fix your training. EDIT: In response to the owner, I do understand that popularity will slow things down, but that wasn't what I was observing. It was a steady trickle of guests coming in every few minutes, and it seems like the crowd was created from congestion of orders stacking up at a higher rate in than they were going out. Orders were only being handed out every several minutes, and while I have also worked in food service/retail and understand having to take breaks and slow down sometimes, the employees seemed like they were just meandering about without a care in the world. I'm truly not sure why, at the very least, steeping wouldn't be started early. I go to a lot of boba places, and I've had many good friends who work (or worked) at boba places, even if I have not directly worked at one myself. The employee behavior was not like anything I've ever seen before.

We made the drive up north to try it before they close since they carry some Vietnamese snacks that are hard to find in Austin. Their menu is extensive covering drinks, desserts, and snacks so it took us a while to decide on our order. All their drinks are lactose free which was great to hear. The staff was nice but it did take a while for everything to come out. Peppermint Pandan Latte / Sam Dua Bac Ha ($6.95) + Crystal Boba ($0.95): We got this at 75% sweet and it was delicious. You can distinctly taste both the peppermint and pandan and it was really refreshing. Matcha Lover ($8.75): We got this at 75% sweet as well. It is a matcha latte with matcha foam, matcha pudding, and matcha mochi. We were not huge fans of this one. The foam was really thick and creamy which made it hard to mix, and the drink had a strange taste that we think came from the flour on the matcha mochi. I think it would have been better if we had eaten the mochi off the top first before mixing everything together. Popcorn Chicken ($8.75): This was okay. They used a different type of batter than what I am used to and it was pretty bland. I didn't like the chili dipping sauce either. Taiwanese popcorn chicken is still way better to me. Mixed Soft Rice Paper With Full Topping / BT Phoi Suong Full Topping ($14): This was our first time having banh trang tron with dried meat and seafood toppings. It also came with a sliced hard boiled egg instead of quail eggs. Very interesting and different. I really wished it came with tamarind sauce because that was the one flavor I felt was missing and would have tied everything together. The portion size also felt a bit small for the price.

For me personally, I was a bit bummed to see all these delicious flavors that were available, but I wasn't able to sample many of them because I have a dairy allergy. So that being said, they only had one flavor that I could try at the time I did appreciate that they had a laminated sheet of paper that listed all of the allergens and all of their flavors, so anyone that had an allergy could quickly see which flavors they could try and which ones they should avoid. During my visit, I ordered their mint basil sorbet which was very good. At five dollars per scoop, it's definitely on the pricier side. However, the ambience inside this ice cream shop was nice and I could see myself hanging out here socially if they had more dairy free options. But overall, I had an okay experience here. The workers were very friendly and knowledgeable. They are located in a small plaza with ample parking. It was also easy to get in and out of the parking lot, which I think is a big plus.
