They have a nice selection of tea and British goodies! My worry is some tea places only sell loose leaf but I was happy to see an equal variety of tea bag selection. I got the Deluxe Teabag Collection which had individual 12x different tea bags from different regions. (India, Taiwan, Japan, and China - and herbal mixes from Europe and Africa) I can't wait to try them all, so glad I stopped by on our way to downtown Montclair. They have a sister store a couple buildings down in the same spot. It's a British pie shop! There are a couple parking spots right in front of the store but otherwise there are plenty of parking nearby as well. read more

What a cute shop! There are lots of different types of tea, and absolutely beautiful tea set. Also lots of candy, chocolate, and biscuits from Britain. The guy behind the counter was very friendly. I will definitely come back again. read more

This is the place to go when you need a little pick-me-up and are a fan of tea. As an eternal seeker of tasty tea, I was delighted to discover this somewhat hidden away gem in Montclair. You can not only try cups of different teas with the guidance of a savvy staff member, you can also purchase delicious tea sandwiches (the egg salad is my fave!) as well as tea paraphernalia and British treats. Don't forget to stop by The Pie Shop, its sister store, just down the way for more anglophile delights, including delectable scones and savories! read more

Stopped in for some tea and scones. The strawberry scone was the best scone I've ever had

Stopped by the Tea Store today. Very charming inside and a plethora of teas and pastries. The Apple cake caught my eye, and it was very tasty. Moist soft and not to sweet. : ) I highly recommend! read more

Is it time for tea? You'd better believe it. 'Cause I've waited oolong time for a darjeeling spot like this: Hubby and I stopped in here on impulse and a lovelier, more tranquil respite from reality I could not have asked for. The two ladies operating the store at the time were beyond warm and welcoming. And so, so patient while a certain someone (who, me?) agonized over which tea to choose. I recall wishing there was a chocolaty tea to enjoy with milk, or say, a fruity fall option like pear and ginger, but in the end I was happy with my soothing chamomile pick. Ever since a trip to London a zillion years ago when I splashed out on a proper high tea, I have been a wee bit obsessed with the concept. I mean, c'mon. Tea served in a pretty pot, along with scones, clotted cream and jam? To say nothing of cute little sandwiches with the crust cut off, and assorted sweets. Yes, please! I *believe* they offer at least some of these items here. We grabbed a Strawberry Scone to bring home to the kid and Mama snuck a bite. Crisp-crusted on the outside and flaky 'n tender on the inside, it was packed with berries and just delicious! It took everything I had to part with it. Am near-certain this is run by the same folks who own the equally charming Pie Store, which specializes in savory Cornish-style pasties, next door. Anglophiles rejoice! Seriously. Only bummer is that seating is somewhat limited, so if this place ever gets really busy, it wouldn't take much to lose its zen-inducing appeal. Bottom line: Big time love for this tearrific shop! I go weak for peaceful sanctuaries within easy driving distance of NYC. This is that and then some. read more

Best tea shop in NJ! I buy my green and black teas from here and won't go anywhere else. Also the owners are adorable! Have a chat with them! read more

Cute shop with British cookies and crackers, as well as teas. Hard to find items outside of the U. K. Can be found here. Got the most amazing chocolate chip cookies. They also have fresh scones. COVID compliant. read more

Delicious tea & great service. I love their recommendations and the goodies to go with their yeas

First class tea shop in every way like the Pie Store. Everything Samantha does is over the moon. Mom & I love her!

What a great little Tea Store! It's has plenty of options and the tea is brewed to perfection! The woman who runs the place is super sweet. I also like that you can buy tea cups, sets and other things laid out in the shop besides tea. Also there small food menu and pastry choices are great, which come for the Pie Store next door. My only reason for the 4 stars is that although the space is very calm and welcoming, it is just way to quite to enjoy a conversation. Even though your whispering everything is amplified. The small space limits privacy. I would suggest the owner purchasing a small Bose speaker and playing very soft music. Overall it's a great Tea Store for tea lovers, can't wait for my next visit! read more

In the land of many coffee shops (which I love), it's so nice to have a place dedicated to the art of tea. I finally was able to visit the Tea shop and buy some lovely scones, which are the real deal (more bread-like than cake, as it should be). They also serve tea but do know that it's not a place to get high tea. Rather, it's a small space that's also airy, light and with a high ceiling where you may have a cuppa with a scone at a shared table or on a stool. It'd be nice if they could have a couple of small cafe tables for 2; however,​ they'd need to change the interior a little. They have a nice selection of British tea and sweets - my favorite being digestives. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Lovely spot for someone looking for delicious tea! Ann was very helpful, all I needed to do was tell her what type of teas I enjoyed and she did the rest! She let me smell a wide variety of different teas and even gave me a few bags of her personal favorite everyday tea. I settled on a bag of jasmine pearls, a cup of which I am drinking as I write this. Incredibly lovely aroma and flavor, this tea is really out of this world. I absolutely recommend stopping by on a Sunday morning, and pick up a pie or scone two doors down while you're there! read more

Little gem in this beautiful neighborhood. It's a small family owned business with lots to offer. The owner is English, spoke with N adorable accent. The scones are from The Pie Store (another English establishment a couple of doors down). The have a good selection of pastries and baked items. I saw signs for their soup and lunch specials. They have a tea bar offering a large variety of teas ready to order for the tea lover and some prepackaged for purchase and other adorable items for purchase. The tea cups would make a great gift. The chocolate was unique, maybe a great gift for myself :) I want to try their kitten times next time. read more

In the words of Jessica Williams of 2 Dope Queens, "I got the idea once that I was going to become this tea maven..." I went into The Tea Store (already a fan of The Pie Store for holiday gifts for my British fam) with thoroughly no tea knowledge beyond "I know I like rooibos and drinking tea calms me." The staff was so kind and didn't pressure me to spend out of my budget at all. It's so refreshing to go into higher end stores and feel completely at ease. She generously served me two samples, one I knew I'd probably like, and a really nice Oolong, which I've never tried. Both were absolutely lovely, especially the oolong, and now i have the confidence to branch out! The store is beautifully decorated and clearly thoughtfully curated, both retail and food/tea service. It is very easy to stay longer than you plan because of the nice light and environment. I can't wait to go back once I'm closer to maven level with my home tea service game. I look forward to trying one of their selections of Craft Tea handmade blends out of Philly. Service is A+ and the knowledgeable staff is so helpful. read more

Tasty baked goods from next door at the famous Pie Store and a fantastic loose leaf tea collection are a great start. I started my journey with Himalayan Black ('fruity and fragrant black tea') which comes steeped in a glass teapot. Enjoyed it with a killer raisin scone. There's some French music from long ago playing in the background adding to the effect (Edith Piaf?). Even the sweeteners are exotic; added some 'Knotweed Blend' honey from upstate New York to mine which was harvested in September 2017 it says on the label. What's knotwood? It's a cozy place with stool seats in the window and a single table for 6 in the middle. Looking forward to fall and winter days working my way through the tea list (40+ long). read more

Most inedible pumpkin scone I have ever tasted. Tasted like medicine. Not coming here again

Had the loveliest time here. Dropped by for a quick tea and found myself lingering. Pretty space, with an extensive variety of teas. Great customer care. read more

This is THE place to get the authentic British biscuits for your tea here in NJ! Their strawberry scones are excellent. The young woman that is behind the counter is super friendly and courteous. I highly recommend this shop! read more

I absolutely adore this spot! I've been quiet a few times since they opened and every single time has been an absolute joy. Not only is the tea delicious, but the food is as well. You really can't go wrong. I've had a croissant, scone, sausage roll, vegan soup, all delicious. This is sure to be one of our regular spots. read more

Like the Pie Store, there isn't a thing in here that's not incredibly delicious. This is not a place you'd want to miss. The Apple cake and mini scones are some of my particular favorites. I'd recommend going early, as everything is baked fresh and some things won't be available late in the day. read more

Excellent tea and scones. I had rose hip tea and my friend had an herbal blend (I forgot what it's called..). We both loved the tea. It's a very cozy and quiet spot great for a one on one chat. I only wish it was bigger so there could be more seating. There's just one larger table and 5 or 6 stools by the windows. read more
