| - Teavana is one of my all time favorite shops. I'm a huuuuge fan of tea. I can easily drink 2 or more pots a day. For me, quality is very important, and Teavana has the best tea I've seen in Vegas.
There's a huge selection that's neatly organized by the type of tea (white, green, black, oolong etc.) in giant tins on a wall behind the register. I believe there are 200 varieties total.
The staff is generally very knowledgeable, and happy to make recommendations. Definitely ask to smell the tea, so you can get an idea of the flavors in it. Price-wise, a lot of the teas are $6-$7 per 2oz, but some of the really special teas sell for over $20 per 2oz.
Teavana also sells cups of tea, which is really convenient when you want to try something new. There's a nice selection of tea cups, tea sets, and tea accessories. They are a little pricey, but the quality is worth it.
I would give Teavana 5 stars, buuuut....the last time we were here, one of the employees talked to her friend on the phone for 10 minutes about how much she made in commission, while we were standing 2 feet away from her, waiting for her to pretty much do her job. Service isn't always 100% here, but the tea is still sooooo worth it. Even people who don't drink tea would probably find one that they absolutely love here.
