This café is fantastic! I’m not sure why there are negative reviews about the owner, he was incredibly kind and took the time to explain the different teas to us. The space is large and welcoming, with a spacious outdoor patio as well. I ordered a hot chai tea, while my husband opted for a cold tea. They offer a wide variety of teas tailored to different needs, like headaches, sinus relief, and other ailments. I really enjoyed my visit and will definitely be coming back for more great tea!

Went with a friend on a whim and wow! Talk about a tea wonderland. When we got our drinks, they come in this huge beer mugs if you get them iced, and they were heavenly. The environment is so chill, lots of people smoking and drawing and talking. Will absolutely be coming back here!

Love this place! Thank you to Maggie and her Uncle for this place and your service! What a great health and herb tea shop to handle all that ails you. What I like most about this place is the family run location makes you feel at home with games and quiet lounge. Many more years of success for the business! Happy Chinese New Year!

This cafe and tea house is inside Claremont Village, a college town for Pomona College and other Claremont Colleges. It’s does feel like a local coffee shop. They have several outdoor tables with covered canopy. Some Japanese gyudon and fried rice are in offer. Espresso machine is there and Americano that I had was hot and quite good. They also offer dozens of different teas you can try. Interior is dark and bit of a dive and the seats are made of plastic or steel but I guess good for a college town cafe. Parking is available in the back lot but it is quite small. Street parking also available for 2 hours.
