1 Harrogate Tea Shop and Tea Rooms
Settle in for a Victorian-style high tea, or drop by the downstairs store for a huge range of teas and preserves to take home.

2 The Tea Centre
The vast range of teas is only just surpassed by the stunning range of accessories, from bone china tea cups to big sturdy teapots.

3 Easy Way Tea
Bubble tea drinks, now emulated in bar world, are a sweet, icy, tea filled with chewy tapioca pearls.

4 The Tea Room
It's classic high tea all the way, here: finger sandwiches, dainty cakes and chocs galore. You can also purchase a wide range of teas to take home.

5 T2
There are always several teas on the go for you try instore, not to mention wall-to-wall boxes of teas and tea-making accessories including beautiful (and inexpensive) teacups and saucers.

6 Taka Tea Garden
Want an alternative to (oof) cream teas? Taka Pan and Helen Kwok's Japanese green tea house is the perfect solution.


7 Ten Ren Cha
Not only do the good folks at Ten Ren offer a huge range of Asian-style teas, but they also have all kinds of little snacks to try.

8 Kopitiam
A Malaysian style coffee house, you'll find a huge range of kooky tea and coffee based drinks as well as really tasty Malaysian dishes such as nasi lemak and roti canai.

9 Toby's Estate, Broadway
Everyone knows Toby's Estate does a roaring trade in coffee, but did you know they also have a very respectable tea range? Love their mint mix.

10 Zensation Tea House, Redfern
Learn more about tea than you ever thought humanly possible and take a yum cha lunch while you're at it. Zensational!
