The cream tea is great. They have yummy scones and macarons.
Love the afternoon tea here! Vanilla creme brulee is to die for, as are the macarons. Get the white strawberry tea
Quiet place with classic music. Very inspiring and relaxing enviroment
Calabash crafts a warming experience around the magic of tea, good music, and a welcoming space.My favorite tea is Desert Rose (ice cold w/ agave), but check with the staff for your elixir of choice.
Ask the knowledgable staff to make you something for any ailment or mood. Awesome!
The chai, the banana bread!
The bubble tea is fantastic, and the bento boxes are great deals. Nice relaxed atmosphere with more than ample seating between upstairs and downstairs.
Come downstairs to say hello to, and contemplate, their beautiful koi!
Get the chicken bento box.
Extensive tea menu (all teas beautifully served), small but versatile snacks and lunch menu. Tea meal of soup and bento box is delicious, filling, and only $14! Great service.
Go to Ching Ching Cha. Try the Sweet Osmanthus Tisane or Yunnan Gold with a marble tea egg
Delicious for a meal any time of day. I love thee grapefruit iced tea, the tea meal (don't skip the kale!) with salmon and a little warm dessert. Great light, too! Great place to read and write.
Ginger limeade, tea-smoked salmon, and fresh kale chips make for a light, refreshing lunch.
Chocolate salty oat #duhhh only reason to ever come here
They do not accept American Express. Avoid.
Best chai in the whole city! Also, do not miss the South Indian coffee. Most authentic than most Indian restaurants.
They didn’t have half he menu items, it took an hour to get our food on a weeknight, and the food wasn’t good.
Chai is sweet, milky Indian tea with fresh cardamom. This is what the chaiwallahs pour in "Slumdog Millionaire"—the classic street drink. The more complexly spiced chai is masala chai. Read more.
The menu is one of the smallest around, just three appetizers and three main courses plus dessert. Get the fluke crudo, chicken, or kimchi. Read more.
Gorgeous tiny dining room. Great service and drinks. The whole place probably seats 16 people.
Carrot and Beets salad is absolutely delicious !
Teapots set up in the shop allow you to sample some of the teas. Be sure to check out the chai masala -- a special blend of black tea and spices from an old family recipe that hails from Sri Lanka. Read more.
These people are really awesome!!!
Susan is great for customer service!!! The owners are fifth generation tea farmers . Sweet little shop
Love this garden level coffee bar that blends in with the neighborhood. Have an exceptional afternoon espresso and a bubbly water. You can also get some beans and basic brew equipment.
Filter's a cozy, garden-level caffeine cave serving up artisan lattes and seven different pour-over coffee cups from Ethiopian Sidamo to Sumatra Lingtong. Read more.
Owner Rasheed Jabr will make sure to customize your experience no matter what kind of coffee you prefer: light roast, dark roast or something in between. D.C.’s an international city.
Ginger scones, THE salty oak cookie with chocolate, the salmon and naan sandwich , and the shrimp noodles are great. Breakfast rocks with the waffle and the chicken sausage.
Everyone comes to get the salty oat cookies ($1.95), but the Bento boxes ($8.75) have a little more substance. Of course they have lots of tea iced or hot. They even use tea to flavor their salmon. Read more.
One of the few decent ACTUAL cheap eats in the city. Bento box for $10? Yes please.
Not as tasty as expensive.
First time to try the passion fruit milkshake, and definitely not the last!
Nice ambiance. Good service. We tried croque monsier, falafel and scrambled egg with avocado and salmon sandwich. All are good except falafel. It is not “falafel” at all
Chai tea latte is wonderful, worth the wait, and can be shared between two people.
The Chai Latte is to die for.
I really like their grilled cheese sandwiches and of course their coffee.
Get the apple danish: best I've ever had. If you want a nice brunch, the quiche is hard to beat.
if you can speak french fairly well, speak French when you're there, the experience is more enjoyable.
Their ham & cheese croissants sell out everyday for a reason!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
