The Tea Cozy Cafe & Lounge

Where Tea Meets Community

A space to sip, stay, and slow down

The Tea Cozy Cafe & Lounge is a tea-forward cafe, creative space, and gathering place on the Westshore.


The idea is simple: a space outside of home and work where you can settle in, spend time, and come back to again and again.


Inspired by the warmth of old-world tea houses, 1890s-style gathering spaces, and apothecaries— the atmosphere will feel layered, cozy, a little curious, and easy to get comfortable in.


Tea is at the center of everything here.

Featuring a small, thoughtfully curated selection of fresh, simple, and seasonal items, including:

  • House-made baked goods

  • Light, made-to-order sandwiches

  • Fresh salads with house-made dressings

THE DRINK MENU

Featuring a rotating, carefully curated selection of organic loose-leaf teas, including:

  • Black, green, oolong, and white teas

  • Herbal infusions and functional blends

  • Seasonal and small-batch options

 

You’ll be able to enjoy tea in a few different ways:

  • Hot, brewed simply

  • Cold-brewed and refreshing

  • Tea lattes (classic and a few more creative ones)

  • Sparkling tea spritzers

  • Tea flights if you feel like trying something new

The space itself will be a defining part of the experience.
The goal is for it to feel:

  • Cozy, but not crowded

  • Interesting, but not overwhelming

  • Easy to settle into for hours

Somewhere you can sit for a while, whether you’re meeting someone or just keeping to yourself.

​

WEEKLY GATHERINGS

The cafe is envisioned as an active, living space with weekly gatherings which may include:

  • Book club meetings

  • “Mini Maker” creative sessions

  • “Sip & Stitch” evenings (knitting, crochet, embroidery)

  • Intimate live music (acoustic, instrumental, low-volume sets)

 

MONTHLY WORKSHOPS

As well as monthly workshops focused on traditional, creative, and practical skills. Planned offerings include:

  • Candle and soap making

  • Basket weaving and textile crafts

  • Crochet, knitting, and embroidery

  • Sewing, mending, and quilting

  • Low-waste living (beeswax wraps, DIY home goods)


The Tea Cozy will also host small, accessible talks and guest speakers. Topics will likely include:

  • Metabolic health and energy

  • Herbal knowledge and plant-based wellness

  • Sustainable, low-toxicity living
