To A Tea 10 reviews Blackfriars  14 Farringdon St, London  Coffee & Tea Shops “To A Tea is the product of an enlightened age wherein a cutesy tea shop can do a brisk business right in the heart of Fleet Street. Rose buds tea is pure and sweet and extremely beautiful to watch steeping in a glass teapot.”  Alice S., London

Postcard Teas 19 reviews Marylebone  9 Dering Street, London  Coffee & Tea Shops “If you have a tea-lover friend and want to surprise them... consider this shop. That was my personal case and I chose the Sparrow's Tongue — nicely packed and beautifully presented Korean green tea.”  Alex L., London

Timberyard 43 reviews Covent Garden  7 Upper St Martin's Lane, London  Coffee & Tea Shops “I tried the new Timber Yard café in Seven Dials. Gorgeous tea and tasty nibbles brought me back again. There is plenty of seating, and they don't mind if you linger with your friends for a good while.”  Laura Kate S., London

Tea Rooms 25 reviews Stoke Newington  155 Stoke Newington Church St, London  Coffee & Tea Shops, Tea Rooms “We both had soup with a roll, which is a great value lunch at under a fiver, and a scone and tea. I would recommend the blood orange tea... As everything they sell is baked in their kitchen, it's all very good quality and fresh.”  Amy D., London

The Orangery 121 reviews Hyde Park  Kensington Palace, London  British Restaurants, Coffee & Tea Shops, Tea Rooms “There is an enormous variety of tea and everything is presented beautifully and with such passion and attention to the detail... Get yourself a buddy and head there for a cup of tea and some delicious cucumber sandwiches. Yum!”  Karin B., London
