    Stopped by for a cuppa before our early dinner reservations down the street. Went for iced since it was a hot day. Will need to try this hot next time. Staff was friendly. AC was blasting.

    Cute place. Nice selections where you live tea or not. Bat seating, table seating, and outside. The service is top notch. I had the golden pineapple lemonade and it was refreshing.

    Look at those deep vibrant colors..

    1/3/24- I think I might become an avid tea drinker.... Picked up a combination box of No. 55- Lord Bergamot/ No. 96- Jasmine Silver Tip..(local retailer).. Why ? 1. The colors of the box and because there were two varieties to try. 2. My vegan son has been wanting me to make an Earl Grey vegan scone-.. 3. I've been reading and researching the benefits of Bergamot.. Beautiful dark colors of the tea and such a nice sachet.. Flavor.. five stars- very smooth- and not overpowering with equal flavors.. Sometimes you know.. and this tea is a keeper..!

    This place has a lovely aesthetic and kind service. I went here when I was feeling upset after a doctor appointment. Got the lavender haze latte and everything is all good. Super queer, friendly and cool outside seating.

    Tea flight

    Love this place! You can a choose your own tea flight for $12. If you like one of the teas you selected and want to buy it it is 10% off! Indoor and outdoor seating. Inside has nice AC and is very cute! Bar stool and table seating. Service is very friendly and helpful! Paid street parking nearby.

    I like Stumptown Ethiopian cup after cup of coffee in the morning, just a cup or two of Smith Tea in the afternoon and Breakside IPA (not counting) in the evening. Like what I like - my fav better buzzzzzin beverage daily fixes for my persnickety taste buds. As for tea there's no better place than Smith on 23rd for tea choices, friendlily service in a convivial and contemporary setting. Pull up a seat inside or outside on the sidewalk. Sip and relax! Take tea to go. At home I go with Earl Grey, Lord Bergamot black tea with refreshing blackberries, juicy mango and orange peel. Smith sources tea farmers caring for soil and plants with sustainable "quasi-organic" practices. I like quality - like that alot! Why - it's Smith tea for me!

    As a tea lover this is my dream spot. Smith tea is based in Portland also which is cool. You can smell all the teas before picking one. They do all kinds of tea lattes and a tea flight which I definitely want to try when I'm back. I got the seasonal "lovers leap" blend for Valentine's Day which I loved. They put a lot of care and precision into the teas and brewing methods. You can really tell. It's expensive but the quality is top tier. Employees are super friendly as well. Come here!!

    Indoors. Wonderful aromas

    An upscale tea house here in Portland, OR. Enter inside and the aroma of fresh brewed tea will tickle your senses. There you may have your selected tea brewed and made to perfection. The warmth of the tea will keep the cold December weather chills away from you. The place is welcoming and they have a wonderful selection of quality teas.

    matcha latte and black lavender fog

    A cute mix of store and cafe. There are areas to buy the tea leaves and small sample containers so customers can smell the different teas. For the cafe portion, there are many different tea options that customers can choose from. The indoor and outdoor seating is also convenient. I should also note that the outdoor seating has heaters my friend and I weren't freezing while drinking our tea. I had a matcha latte and my friend had black lavender fog. We both enjoyed our drinks. However, at the end of the day for me, the lattes were well made but not something I would purposefully seek out. The people who served us were also lovely and helpful. I will say though, if you are visiting and a tea person, that you should at least check it out once as there is a large variety of teas and they have some limited edition teas that I haven't seen elsewhere. Also note that if you are looking to eat anything aside from a small pastry, there wasn't much to eat, although my friend and I did go later in the day, so that might have played a part.

    I wanted more. The tea I ordered was an iced Jasmine tea. It honestly had no flavor and tasted like water. I was really hoping for a jasmine flavor. They offer other teas on the menu. Maybe if I tried something else, the tea would have tasted better. The staff were not that helpful when I asked about the tea I just received. Noted. You can buy teas to take home as well. I was not impressed.

    The shop smelt so good when I first walked in. The workers were very helpful and they have all the teas set out in little jars for us to smell. Will definitely come back if I'm ever in the area to try more tea!

    My friends and I came here to kill some time in the middle of a hot day a couple weeks ago, and it was a really fun Portland experience. We got 2 tea flights to share between people (each flight has 3 teas) and total was $28.23. Pros: - Pretty tasty tea! And a very wide selection of different kinds ranging in bitterness and darkness. I like the flights because they give you a little card telling you where the tea is from, fun facts, etc. We did a white tea, jasmine pearls, 2 oolongs, black lavender, and "Shu cha pu-erh," a fermented Chinese black tea. In general, we loved all our choices and each had our favorites. They gave us little shot glasses to share the tea in. - Really nice service, the guy helping us out was very patient with us while we chose our tea flight, and gave us good advice/tips. We did have one funny moment though where he said the fermented Chinese black tea is "very different" from regular teas, and that it might be darker/more bitter than we're used to. When it came out, it actually tasted just like the Chinese tea served at some dim sum places hahah right up our alley. But thank you kind white guy! - Really nice AC inside, clean bathroom, cute seating. Not a ton of space, but good enough to fit 3 small parties. It's definitely a nice place to kill time and just sit for a long chat. They also have other drinks there too if you want to buy a personal one for yourself. - The tea was warm but not too scalding hot, which I liked. Cons: - could be "pricier" if you're used to just drinking your tea at home, but we liked the experience and didn't regret it. Would recommend for people from out of town.

    S'mores & Tea Flight
    Christal M.

    If you're not one of the millions of people that run on coffee and prefer tea, this tea shop has an amazing selection of drinks and tea products. The shop is cozy with tables for relaxing with a cup of tea or doing some work. It was quiet when I visited on Thursday afternoon, almost too quiet. There was soft music playing in the background, but I would've preferred it to be a little louder as I felt our conversations could be heard by everyone around us. The girl working there was friendly and offered some helpful suggestions. But I already had my sights set on their S'mores & Tea Flight ($15). It featured three s'mores made with different kinds of tea-infused marshmallow fluff and paired with hot teas. It was very unique and the presentation was cute. You can tell their teas are high quality from the aroma and taste. I really enjoyed the Jasmine Silver Tip and bought tea bags ($12.99) to take home as well as some Golden Light ($13.99). Since I had the flight, I was given 10% off which was nice. Tea can be boring, but they make it exciting by offering things like flights and teas on tap. They also have seasonal flavors that rotate. As an avid tea drinker, I wish there were more tea shops like this around.

    Not worth it! I love their teas, the barista is rude and not friendly for the price it simply isn't worth it.

    You know it's a good coffee when you don't need sweetener! I got my standard cappuccino which ended…read moreup tasting divine. The quality was top notch, enough to where I felt confident purchasing beans for my espresso maker back home! The beans (locally sourced) were recently roasted too - an absolute must. Service was quick. Ambiance was laid back. It was a quick stop & go as I was visiting Portland for the first time. Out of the many places that were visited during my explorations, Barista lived rent free in my mind as one of the best stops. Highly recommend.

    It was boxing day so I need a quick caffeinated drink, so I popped into this shop for my first…read moretime. Early in the morning the coffee shop was pretty busy, especially as stores were not opened yet. As it was my first time in the shop it took me awhile to process the menu- this is definitely a coffee focus place (not for tea drinkers). And the focus seems to be on more coffee forward drinks, rather than jacked up with sugar and other stuff like Starbucks. Coffee prices are inline with other coffee stores in the area. As for seating, the shop provides tables seating. Plus there is a nice coffee bar at the windows, which is perfect for people watching. Plus there is a small coffee bar that faces the barista if you want to watch drinks being made. Parking can be tough in this area as the main shopping street....parking is on the street and off the main street.
