tea shops

Cozy beverage establishments

Tea shops are establishments serving tea and light refreshments, typically in a cozy or quaint setting.

The term evokes British or European-style cafes offering afternoon tea, scones, and pastries: We stopped at a tea shop in the Cotswolds.

In some contexts, tea shops may also sell loose-leaf teas and brewing supplies.
