OMG so many tea's ... so little time.
The Tea Factory seems relatively new, just off 4th and 17th its very bright inside, and the food looks amazing!!! The guy running it knows his teas! He has helped me select delicious teas which can be made hot or cold. They are the venue building sponsor of the Pinata Project so I have been there a lot as of late, but its fantastic every time. The only reason for the loss of a star is I cannot smell all the teas on my own but have to ask at the counter. And really I just want to smell every one but not annoy the counter staff. who so far have been very patient and helpful and suggest other teas for me to smell as well!
And do you know what goes well with tea!?!?!? MACARONS! They have those and macaron cakes to share too! And sandwiches from Sidewalk Citzen too! Support local and go try these teas!
