I'm Berry determined. Am going to leave no Scone unturned!
Yael D.

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.

Strawberry scones and raisin scone

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!

I really enjoyed visiting this tea store! It's very pleasant and the lady brewing the tea is very nice. I hope to visit again very soon!

The storefront is so cute!

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.

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.

Half of the tea list.

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).

Such a great place!! Tea is amazing and the atmosphere is so nice.

See all

I selfishly want to keep this place a little secret, but I know it's not right to do and so I must…read moreshare my thoughts and quick review so that you may enjoy it too. My go-to coffee is usually black and nothing else. Instead I opted to try their "Hot Chai latte"and a choice of oat milk, half/half and milk and other options. I went with the half/half and It was absolutely delicious. Groundwork's Cafe is just the perfect place to relax and enjoy yourself with their many food and drink options. The energy and vibe is exactly what I like to surround myself in. The cafe is extremely clean all around!!!! The staff members are beyond friendly and welcoming. There's off street meter parking and town meter parking lots within a short walking distance. What I ordered: Hot chai latte Chicken Colombian empanadas A small cup of Tomato Soup I LOVED IT ALL! My NEW FAVORITE PLACE and I'm looking forward to going back.

I came across this coffee shop on the 4th of July out of pure luck since everything was closed and…read moreI am glad we stopped by! Walking in was inviting considering the decor and how comfy everything looked. Their menu had an extensive drink option and even included frozen yogurt which I was shocked by. I tried their empanada and beef patty, they did not disappoint with the flavor and how fresh they were. The service was divine as well. The girl behind the counter was sweet and offered her opinion on a few things.
