    I made a quick stop into Tea Time one day because I was craving boba. I wasn't paying attention when I Yelped boba shops, so I was a bit disappointed when I walked in only to discover that it's actually one of those high tea places. You know, the kind with those cute little sandwiches and clotted cream? Yeah, that. Now, I have been wanting to try a place like this since I never got to go when I was visiting the U.K. in November. One day I will actually sit down and enJOY what they have to offer. This time around though, I just ended up getting an iced tea. The lady suggested their Peach Apricot Black Tea, so I took her up on it. It wasn't really sweet, so I added a packet of Stevia. It was perfect and hit the spot on a hot afternoon in Scottsdale. This cute little shop also sells a lot of merch. You'll find all the cute things tea-related. They also sell special chocolates you can purchase individually. I believe they also sell some pastries if you're there early enough. Tea Time would be a great place to host a girls' day or a date with your mini! It's nicely decorated and the staff is super friendly. Ohhh, and as I checked out, the lady noticed my scrubs and asked if I work nearby. I said yes and she gave me a discount. How cool! I always appreciate a nice gesture. I will be back again sooner or later. Mom and pop shops such as this one will win me over time and time again. Can't wait to try their afternoon tea with the whole spread!!

    If you're a tea-drinker - or coffee or hot chocolate- head over to Tea Time in Old Scottsdale. The teas we tried were outstanding! We visited in early January and they still had their winter / holiday specials. I'm telling you, they had a tea that tasted like peppermint hot cocoa - amazing and delicious! They have other teas that are served like coffee, but of course tea that tastes like tea is the star of the show. If you want to try different flavors of tea or different types of tea leaves, you'll find it all at Tea Time with the entire wall behind the counter covered with a dizzying array of dozens of teas to choose from. The servers behind the counter are very helpful, pleasantly explaining everything and answering every question (I always grave a lot when there are so many awesome options!). The place itself is adorable decorated with tea cups filled with fresh flowers on each table. It's small and we took our teas to go, but you could sit and savor your selection and watch the people walk by. One thing I appreciated ... there were vegan / plant-based options for the milk to add to the tea. So nice! Highly recommended!

    Quality, ingredient-focused tea at a reasonable price. The people here are also super nice! I loved the seasonal drinks here. Their shop is nice and cozy, well air-conditioned so a good place to relax during my lunch breaks in the summer.

    Loved checking out this cute little tea house. First, you need to make reservations in advance to have the full experience, this is essentially a small shop that sells loose leaf tea but offers full service high tea. They outsource the food and have to plan in advance. When we arrived, our table was ready with the cutest personalized menus (loved this touch). We were given an extensive tea menu and our package was to pick 3 to share at the table (note: they only bring one pot at a time but if you don't finish the pot and are ready for your next tea, they'll pop the rest into a to-go cup). They also brought some samples of the teas for us to smell to help narrow down our decision. We went with 2 caffeine free (sangria and thin mint) and one caffeinated (apple crisp)- all were delicious. The food was ok- really hard to get GF where the bread isn't totally dry, but the scone was delicious (would love if they'd offer clotted cream + lemon preserves or something in the future!). The cute macarons were an adorable touch. The service was great, and I noticed on their website they offer themed teas- would love to try that in the future!

    My cousin and I took our mom's and her daughter and a friend here for high tea. The place was absolutely charming, the food was delicious, and the choices of tea were wonderful. I can't say if I had a favorite thing, everything was spot on. Oh, and they also had hats you could borrow if you forgot to wear your tea party hat!

    Afternoon tea set

    Service was amazing. I made a reservation for afternoon tea and got a call the day before so they could personalize the menus with our names. We never felt rushed to leave even though we stayed for a while. The $50 afternoon tea set comes with a great mix of savory and sweet finger foods as well as three whole pots of tea. Our server was super helpful when we were trying to decide which teas to get, she brought over the leaves for us to smell. She also packed the leftover tea to take home so that we didn't feel pressured to finish it all there. I'd say the food was average, nothing particular stood out too much but I did enjoy the pesto olive croissant. That was a unique flavor combination I've never tried before. Presentation was very cute though. For afternoon tea I didn't expect anything too crazy from the food though, I was looking forward to the experience more. The interior is cute, the wall lined with drawers of tea. There is such an extensive variety of different teas that I've never even heard of, like purple tea. This was the perfect experience to celebrate my friend's birthday, would definitely come here again for a special occasion.

    This is for the store front that sells tea, and not for the dining experience. I'm in love with this place! I love all the selection of tea, from green tea, black tea to caffeine free. You can ask them to smell the ones you like. The flavors are really fun and unique! It is quite pricey though, it's about $30 for 100g. I got 3 different kinds but at the minimum of 50g. Then you can make any of the teas into a cold or hot tea drink. It was delicious. I love this place! Been drinking the teas I bought - prickly pear, green guava mango, and sangria sorbet . Delicious!!!

    Adorable tea shop with a very large selection of loose tea to choose from. We stopped in to enjoy a cup of tea. The blueberry crumble is highly recommended. Caffeine free and taste delicious. I had the apple cinnamon coffee cake. I didn't care for it. I did not taste any cinnamon and to me it had an almond smell. Looks like they do Tea time where you have tea, finger sandwiches and desserts. So lovely! I would definitely like to try this next time around.

    We loved our time spent here and the tea party. The food was delicious, the tea was tasty, and the details of the table/menus was perfect! I would 100% go back and do it again. Especially for the chicken salad sandwich and the ham with chipotle aioli. The scones were divine and we had to take some to go. We had a great time here!

    What a great find on my trip to Scottsdale! The staff is super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the large selection of teas here. We got a pot of the the apple ginger rosemary tea and also tried the roasted chestnut tea. Both were delicious and exactly what I needed on a cold afternoon wandering the streets of Old town. The shop is small, quiet, and clean with so many options of tea to try! They sold $1 individual tea bags if you found a favorite to want to take back. I will definitely be back whenever I am out here to try out the other tea varieties.

    Initial setup.

    Scheduled Tea for me and my little. Everything was amazing they emailed me with options for kids sandwiches and made personalized place cards waiting for us. My daughter was so surprised to see her name with the setup. Kids tea was 35 for 2 sandwiches and full desserts and the adult was 50 with 5 sandwiches and full dessert with three different pots of tea. They were so hospitable and able to suggest different teas that would pair well with the sandwiches and sweets. The only down side for me was the restroom was in another building all together.

Everyone in the store is always so nice and accommodating, I have had some lovely chats with the staff. My favorite tea in the Prickly Pear Black Tea. Tastes wonderful hot or iced. Not over flavored or artificial tasting like some flavored teas you may have tried elsewhere. A perfect blend. Try it you'll like it! A true Arizona gem. The only slight issue with the store is that it is in the heart of the touristy area of Old Town Scottsdale, so finding parking anywhere near the store can be a frustration at peak times. I wish they had a couple dedicated grab and go spots out front. P.S. Another thing I love about this place is you can pick out any of their teas and they will brew you a cup which you can get hot or iced to try before you buy.

Stopped in because my entire family loves tea, especially with out English background. The variation of teas here are impressive. You can get a good whiff from the main jars before you even purchase them. The shop is quaint, cute, filled with little intricacies surrounding all things kitchen items and even select, local honey. It's a beautifully clash decor of rustic, Americana and old school but well lit, super busy and realistically, very well priced items. Met the owner and was very impressed with our conversation. They have gone the distance to create incredible appeal everywhere you look from shelving to presentation, and in providing items you can't find down the street or in big box stores, and for that, they've kind of cornered the market, here, per se. Very well done and would recommend you come ready to try a new tea today!
