    Seasonal tiramisu chai
    Gabrielle U.

    I love Chai Window! The seasonal flavors are so fun. And the little window is such a vibe. My favorite place for a treat in Charlotte.

    Check out this cute jewelry store combined with a tea house in the heart of Plaza Midwood, Villa Heights and Country Club Heights! All jewelry is made in house! The staff is super friendly and the chai tea is delicious!

    This was a nice event. I would have never known what type of business this was had it not been for Yelp. Thanks for bringing this gem to our attention. They have GREAT customer service. The ladies are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable of their products. They offer beverages, jewelry, home decor and more. The only concerns I saw right off hand was the entrance and exit are the same. So you'd have to be really careful entering if someone was trying to exit and vice versa as to not have a pile up in the parking lot or on The Plaza if there were many customers. The parking lot is small but it seems to be able to hold about 10+ cars if people were sitting or staying a while. There are a couple of seats outside for seating and a table and chairs for inside sitting as well. It's tight inside if there are more than 2-3 people browsing for purchases. What's great is if you just want to order a beverage and pick it up to go. They have a window where you can ring a bell and they'll make the drink for you in no time then you can leave. I'd say come give them a try if you really like Chai. Hot or cold. They even have chai ice cream sandwiches and popsicles.

    I am a huge tea lover and a big fan of Chai. I am so glad Yelp helped me discover The Chai Window because this is one of those truly hidden gem type places. I had no idea it was there and that is such a bummer for them because it seems to be hidden in plane site. The inside and outside are super cute and the service is fantastic. They have a small store inside with items made in house so make sure to check that out too. You can order your Chai inside or at the window. They have hot and cold options and a few other things like ice cream. I liked the Chai but wish it was a bit spicier. Not sure if they can customize but I will for sure inquire about it next time.

    The Chai Window has a simple menu and does it right. Hot or iced chai! Perfect for those who love a chai that is balanced -- not overly sweet and for those that don't have to make decisions like when you're at other coffee spots. Friendly staff and quick service. There's indoor and outdoor seating, and the retail space is all handmade items too.

    The best chai i've ever tasted, the owner is super sweet!! I def recommend this place to anyone looking for a yummy drink!!

    Once you find this place you will be glad you did! It's tucked off of The Plaza street in an adorable house. Right away you are greeted by the kindest staff from the shop. I love that they all take turns creating beautiful art as well as working the chai window. The space is nice and quiet for working while you enjoy your chai. I'll definitely be back.

    Best Chai! I love this place so much, everything is perfect. The owner is super kind, I stop by anytime I'm in the area. Both hot and cold are good but I do tend to go for the classic iced option.

    I loved this little place! So tiny but so yum! It's so cute! The team was so friendly!

    When you're craving a cup of chai. Head over to The Plaza. Nicely balanced between spicy and sweet. If you have only had chai from coffee shops, you must go try The Chai Window. Check hours before heading over. No seating only a walk up window.

    This was my first time coming to the chai window and let me say it didn't disappoint. The owner was super sweet! Our chai's came out with amazing flavor and the fastest service. Definitely will be coming back

    The Chai Window is everythinggggg. Easily the best chai I've ever had not too sweet, super flavorful, and just so cozy. I love that they use a non-dairy milk alternative, which makes it even smoother. Plus, the whole vibe is just gorgeous. The setup is so aesthetically pleasing, from the packaging to the little window itself. If you're a chai lover (or even just chai-curious), you need to try this place! Very much work the drive from Mooresville :)

    The cutest little spot!!! The iced chai was delicious. Everyone was super kind and inviting. I also loved browsing all of the handmade items inside. There's some seating inside and out. Definitely recommend!!

In addition to serving tea and empowering women and children globally, A Cause For Tea also has a monstrous menu of baked goods (scones, biscuits, etc.) as well as delicious finger sandwiches AND a small shop with loose leaf teas for sale and other tea inspired trinkets and cookbooks. There is a large selection of a variety of teas that can be served individually or in a pot for multiple people. Individual servings come with options to add creams, whip cream, toppings, etc. Scones are huge and the finger sandwiches are delicious. We ordered a pimento cheese scone and the variety selection of finger sandwiches along with a pot of tea. Everything was amazing and we had plenty of scone left over to bring home. The place can get pretty busy, especially when the weather is nice so reservations are recommended. The menu is a little pricey however, remember its for a cause and not just for profit. Plan on plenty of time to unwind, relax and enjoy the time. It's not a place to rush through.

We even made it a mini date since we recently became parents, which made the outing special for us. The order took a while to prepare, even though the restaurant wasn't crowded. When we received our food, the packaging seemed small, but I stayed optimistic. Unfortunately, once I opened my sandwich, I was disappointed. The portion of meat was very small, and the bread was quite thin. While the flavor was there, the portion size didn't meet our expectations. We also ordered a vanilla latte, which was very good and definitely a highlight. I would still recommend this place to family and friends, but I'd be sure to let them know that the sandwich portions are smaller than what we're used to at similar restaurants.

She was very nice on the phone and I really appreciated the extra care. I also ordered the tofu banh mi and it was perfection!!! So so so good!! I would definitely check this spot out again. Can't wait!!

On the afternoon/evening of 8/4/25 my husband and I came in. We ordered rose bubble tea, and lavender bubble tea, both large, oat milk, double boba. The second we came in we saw the girl peak her head out and rolled her eyes. "What do you want." With no energy and heavy attitude. I was polite and said my order. And she seemed upset about something on her mind. We decided to tip her I think 15-18% to see if it would make her happy or brighten her day. She didn't say thank you and she just turned around and walked away. I was not expecting her to say thank you for the tip, but I was expecting her to say thank you or your order will be out soon as a customer service note. There was another guy behind the counter/curtain and he mentioned something which made her go. "Oh well it's too late now, and then she shrugged her shoulders. " and we heard that as we left the building. Got home and within about 20 minutes my husband and I threw up. I have no idea what happened to these drinks, as the curtains are closed behind the counter. I no longer trust this place to make me SAFE food.

We had 6 in total for our party. I love the number of options that they have to offer and am glad they also had a variety of food. The wait staff was friendly and patient with the questions we had about our order. We did have to wait a while for our order of 7 deinks and 7 food items. The drinks came out first, then the ramen and then the noodles and rice. The drinks were delicious, and the galaxy teas were so pretty!! It was definitely difficult to select just one option to try. If you go with a large party and they're willing to share, I would definitely recommend going that route!! A must try spot if you're in the area.
