Toronto has more places to buy quality loose tea per capita than New York, really.
During a recent visit I tried a number of David's blends and stocked up for the return to New York. Good quality, reasonable prices, nice design sense, friendly, charming, helpful staff and a nice atmosphere.
David's won't replace mail order sources for specific varietal teas, but they offer many good and unique blends.
I hope i'm not "talking out of school" here but when I mentioned to one of the employees that there wasn't any place truly like David's in New York, she mentioned they intend opening a store in New York. Good news!
