Postcard Teas in City of London, Westminster

An essential place for tea lovers, with jewels inside the pretty boxes and their postcards. Thanks for the talk Timoty & crew, the tall oolong is great.

Great shop for coffee and tea lovers.

Found this place on Google and have been there twice during my 3-day trip to London! I searched for other interesting tea shops where I can buy something for myself and my family, and this was the best place that I have found! Very good variety of teas, very helpful and friendly sales assistant. Definitely worth going!

A brilliantly unique tea shop! The staff here are both extremely friendly and knowledgable. I highly recommend buying a few smaller samples and coming back with what you liked vs didn't. When we did this, they staff knew exactly what blends we would like and they were spot on. This is a shop who really do care about both their product and customers!

It seems to be a black tea inspired by Japanese tea and Japanese culture. As the title of the store suggests, the packaging is designed to look like a postcard and is stylish.

Lovely little tea shop. Found on Google, bought some cute packs for myself. The packaging is really cute so I bought it without thinking twice😂 it’s not just a hype though, the tea itself also taste really good. A good place to go if you want to buy teas in niche little shops as souvenirs or gift for yourself, definitely recommend!

Lovely shop with even better service. A must visit if you are a tea lover and perfect for gifts. How retail should be! The owner gave me a free sample

Incredible tea store with knowledgeable staff!

The best in London. Friendly, helpful, down to earth but with the most wonderful selection of teas.

My son has newly discovered high end tea, so we paid a visit. What a beautiful store! We didn't know what to get, but the staff were very helpful.

Excellent service. The store was not opening when we arrived as we didn’t checked the opening hours. However, the staff opens 30 mins earlier for us to check out the tea. He took time to explain different tea and made a few recommendation. Good varieties of tea available and store is very organized. I would highly recommend if you are around the neighbourhood.

Postcard Teas has been my go-to Tea House for 15+ years. Incredible selection of high quality teas, all checked and sourced by Tim the owner. Wonderful selection of Tea candies, Tea Cups and high quality accessories. If you love Tea it's a must visit whether you live in London or just visiting. The building was originally a Tea House in the 1800's Highly recommended 👑👑👑👑👑

Really friendly and knowledgeable staff and found exactly what I was looking for! Would recommend to anyone who likes tea

I just wish they had some white tea and brewing instructions for beginners, but apart from that shop is the best in London

Postcard Teas is a hidden gem in the heart of London, they have a great selection of artisanal teas sourced directly from farms and a focus on quality and sustainability. The staff are all knowledgeable about the different types of teas as well.

Essential visiting for anyone who loves tea. Everything about Postcard Teas is a delight, from the beautiful shop, the exquisite packaging, the kind, charming service, to the excellent teas themselves, which range from everyday breakfast and afternoon types to rare varieties from small estates.

Very nice place to buy tea, quite hidden from the busy streets. The classics are there, as well as some specialty teas. Just ask the staff, who was very friendly and kind at the time of our visit. The packaging (like a Postcard), and how they arranged them make it a joy to look around and discover the different kinds of teas they have to offer. And of course, the teas taste great. Also bought some for gifting.

Un’esperienza londinese diversa. Piccola bottega, tantissime varietà di the differenti. Possibilità di fare degustazione o di essere indottrinati dal personale.

This is a special place when you go to london you definitely must go as they do tea ceremonies as well as selling tea from all over Asia with the authentic tea pots cups plates it is really an amazing experience to go in the shop plus I can’t forget the lovely staff. This is a must for every Tea enthusiast.

Such a hidden gem of a shop. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. Not to mention the teas are some of the best you can find, especially if you're into the less popular oolong like I am.

Haydn was an enormous help with selecting a gift for a friend. The gift exceeded my expectations and I could not be happier with Postcard Teas! 100% recommend!!

Super cute store with great price range, perfect if you need a unique souvenir from London

Amazing spot for anyone who loves tea, cares about producers being paid fairly, and wants to support environmentally sound agricultural practices.

Literally the friendliest person ever works here, so helpful and knows so much about teas. My go to place for tea!

Great shop for tea lovers + exceptional service. The stuff was very kind and knowledgeable about tea.

What a hidden gem! This store is an absolute must-visit for loose leaf tea lovers and tea connoisseurs. I came here for a tea tasting experience and loved it. I learned so much about tea and how it’s grown and where etc. This little tea company supplies amazing teas to the most luxurious restaurants and hotels in the world. Truly recommend this place if you’re into tea. 🫖

The ambience of the store was nice. You can find peace upon entering. The man(staff) was informative and he knows how to explain well and accommodate customers. The place was tidy and there were lots of tea choices in there. They also ship the teas if you are from another country.

Good tasting teas nice shopowner quiet atmosphere i was there on a trip to london and it was very nice

They were genuinely so nice! So polite and knowlegeable about their teas, I asked a lot of questions and they answered all of them! Definitely the best tea shop experience I've had so far. Thanks!

Quality tea with a wide selection of old world and internationally inspired varieties such as Japanese Sencha. Love the friendly service in-store, definitely worth repeated visits while I’m in London. Oh, and they have cotton bags inside each box so it’s great for traveling.

How cute is this store? A great place for souvenirs, and the shop owner is so kind and helpful. I sent two tea “postcards” to my family in the US and they shipped so fast. A true gem and I will return next time I’m in London.

We’ve been buying tea from here for 10 years now. We live in California and it’s always a special present for any of us. They always write notes with their shipments and have the most diverse and best tea selection. We can’t wait to go back in fall…possibly one of the top reasons we wanted to have a quick stop in London. 😊

I have been visiting Postcard Teas for a number of years. This gem of a Tea emporium is well located for tea aficionados and the welcome is as warm as the samples you can partake. They have a wonderful selection of teas beautifully and ethically packaged and advice on hand for those whom wish to fine tune their taste buds in pursuit of a cuppa. I cannot praise them enough buy suffice to say as I raise my cup of Master Matsumoto’s Supernatural Black thank you I will leave you with a quote which informs you of how much I love the magic elixir we call Tea “I say let the world go to hell, but I should always have my tea Dostoevsky

Very good service. Will visit again !!

One of the best tea shops on Planet Earth. If you are a more casual tea drinker or looking for gifts, the tea “post cards” are all absolutely superb. If you are more serious about tea, just ask the owner for recommendations. You can’t go wrong in this shop.

Beautiful shop with an incredible range of teas, ceramics and other homeware.

Great teas at a reasonable price, procured from small producers. The staff was extremely helpful in describing the various teas and helping me pick a few.

Schöner und sauberer Laden, sehr nettes Personal und sehr leckerer Tee!

Apr 2022 I purchased as a gift and my friend enjoyed. I can confirm staff has good knowledge and store is kept organised well. Anyway, their tea leaves come from not only India but Sri Lanka, Japan. As for me, it is attractive that UK where huge tea lovers live is importing leaves for black tea from Japan such as Kumamoto, Shizuoka.

I was very kindly gifted the French Lemon Verbena . A large leafed delightfully refreshing cup of tea. I cannot wait to share it with my own customers.

Lovely store, very nice owner, he told me everything about all the green teas they're selling, it was pretty interesting. I never learned so much about tea before and the concept is really nice, if you're looking for a nice little gift to bring or send home I would definitly recommand - what's better to bring from UK then tea? There's also something in every price range.

Very lovely tea shop. The boxes are really cute and are perfect for a gift

Magnifique boutique de thé, un cadre charmeur ! Le vendeur est vraiment très gentil il prendra le soins de vous expliquer tout sur le thé de votre choix. Les thés-carte postale sont vendu avec un sachet réutilisable. 🌱 Parfait pour faire de beaux cadeaux et bon souvenirs. 🎁

Gorgeous tea store, fantastic selection and wonderful staff. Well worth a visit and their tea tasting sessions are a must try!

Amazing passion and knowledge, the best tea and teaware shop London. Thanks again!

Amazing little place, the guys know what they are talking about. I can recommend doing the tea tasting to get to try some incredible brews.

The best tea shop in London, specialised in Asian teas from small, independent producers. Beautiful tea wares too. The staff is patient and very knowledgeable. A small oasis of calm in a busy area.

Hands down the best tea company in the U.K, if not the world. Wonderful tea, fantastic service, lovely company.

Incredible shop. The teas are amazing and the staff are probably the best, most friendly and informative I've ever encountered in my life, most likely in any shop

Highly recommended, tea at it's best including knowledge and service

Went there last week as I was visiting London and I felt I couldn't miss this store! The tea selection is incredible, the prices are good and the staff is so friendly. I'd definitely visit again every time I'm back in London.

Highly recommend the tea tasting sessions on Saturday. A very good tea shop with high quality rare teas and very knowledgeable staff.

Hands down the best tea seller for Japanese varieties, the prices are quite reasonable if taken in count the rarity and quality of the product. The teaware is a bit on the expensive side, but it's all stuff from great potters who are in a way artists.

Ordered 2 pick n mix box, fabulous selection and they taste amazing

Beautiful store, amazing tasting teas, incredibly knowledgeable staff. All around an absolute delight.

Wonderful little gem of a place tucked away in London. Extremely knowledgeable and helpful staff. Highly recommended for any tea enthusiast!

Finally had the chance to visit this shop yesterday. I passed a few times in the last year but never when it was open so it was a nice surprise to see clients inside. I had a chance to admire their fine teas and I'm looking forward to visit once they will serve tea again. If you are a fan of speciality tea this is the shop for you. Before visiting I was under the false impression that everything will be extremely pricey but the teas were decently priced considering their origin and cultivars. I've only a bought one tea, an interesting 'gyokuresque' but I will go back to explore some more exquisite teas.

Delightful shop. Passionate about Japanese teas. Managed to get high quality soba tea which is a rare find.

The first time I have visited this shop it was in 2012, and I was a faithful customer ever since. I was walking on a small street, looked across the road, and there it was - this amazing little tea shop, I just had to enter. There, I've discovered wonderful varieties of teas, and colourful tea cups and pots. Since that first visit, I have bought many teas from their online shop, as well as some pottery. The quality of the teas is incredible, the pottery is beautifully crafted and unique, and the staff couldn't be more helpful. I have often sent e-mails when I've needed help or just some suggestions, and everyone has always been really nice, so I have them to thank for an amazing customer service. When I need to buy teas, this is the store to do it, and when I visit London again, this will definitely be a place to visit (again). Thank you all for your kindness, beautiful products, and delicious high quality tea! :)

A highly recommendable and enjoyable experience. Tea schools - excellent.

You must try their Lapsang Souchong!

Great store for both black and green teas. Very friendly and helpful staff! A true pearl.

Best tea shop in London - no doubts!!

This store lived up to the reviews. They had a very thoughtfully put together selection of teas available in a nice cozy atmosphere. The gentlemen working were willing to answer all my questions and clearly enjoy what they do. If you are looking for tea in London this is the place to go.

Fortnum is too far to walk and this my new please to get my teas . Absolutely love it. Very well educated gentlemen works there and teas are exclusive!!

Best place for buying and drinking tea.

It is one of my favourite tea shops in London. Very relaxing atmosphere, kind and friendly people, great tea.

Superior customer service to any other tea shop in the city! Incredible selection of classic fare and specialty tea, packaged beautifully, at approachable prices. Quaint retail space with regular tea tastings, I was undecided on a few teas so Tim brewed up a couple and sured my decisions.

Visitando Londres. . . siendo bebedores de té. . . Tuvimos que visitar una tienda de té. Mi esposa encontró la suya y estaba motivado para ir aquí a la gran tienda de Twinnings debido a las relaciones reportadas que esta tienda tiene con los agricultores. También estaba intrigada por el concepto de postal. La tienda tiene varios tés que envían como postales a cualquier parte del mundo. Un gran regalo para todos los que están en nuestra lista. Disfrutamos oler sus tés. . . y luego elegí algunos para probar. . . antes de tomar una decisión sobre cuáles comprar. Mientras esperábamos para probar, disfrutamos de algunos libros tipo té de mesa de café. Nota: este no es un restaurante. Venden tés. Y no esperes tomar un té adecuado aquí. . . completo con bollos y lo que no. No hay comida aquí. Solo té.

Friendly, professional, this is where to go if the Twinings isn't cutting the mustard

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌜: Go Out Of Your To Buy Tea Here!

紅茶だけではなくて、中国の緑茶やウーロン茶や日本の緑茶や韓国の緑茶など、幅広く販売しています。大手のお店に比べると、華や かさはかけるかもしれませんが、その分こだわりを感じられます。

Recently I bought their tea online. I'm afraid their tea has been quite underwhelming. I'm puzzled by these rave reviews.

Fuimos como 2 personas para probar un poco de té. La tienda estaba libre de clientes cuando llegamos y nos recibieron. Es una experiencia lenta y constante, por lo que es mejor hacerlo cuando no tenga prisa. Buen ambiente informal y un montón de buen té para probar. Recomendado, pero recuerde que es principalmente una sala de ventas, por lo que los asientos son muy limitados.

From a fan of great tea to what must be described as the world's best tea shop . The quality and reasonable price for the assam is in my opinion unbeatable..

Went to a green tea tasting at their beautiful shop. Eight of us round a table with Tim and staff explaining and enthusing. Highly recommended.

If you are even remotely interested in tea, skip all other shops and come straight here. From good breakfast tea blends to top shelf Pu’erh and single tree dancong oolongs, there’s something for everyone.

Beautiful shop. Very helpful staff.

The best tea shop in London, I was recommended this by another amazing tea experience, ITO Raum in Stuttgart. The staff here have great knowledge and are always happy to let you try some of teas you are in two minds about. Also lots of very special eastern, tea related ceramics!

Excllent place to find fine teas

The staff is very friendly and professional！He knows every kind of tea very well and makes good recommendations for you！The store is cute and elegent～ The copper cans are beautiful！ I bought Darjiling （Spring）in caddy this time and loved the soft blossom-like flavor！

First of all, they have many kinds teas. I bought English teas, they are especially superior when you almost finish your teapot tea.When tea got thick,strong,you can add milk,and it turned out to be delicious, mild, light, lovely one especially with English milk. Just before the new Bond Bus stop turn the corner Swalovsky right, and turn right again, easily you find.

Top end fine tea with a few affordable choices. Highly skilled and knowledgeable staff with good low-pressure service

Nice teas but very narrow range, and low stock level - I cleared out their assam.

I have tried many tea shops and this is by far the best if you are looking for great quality tea. A bit expensive, but worth it

Proper tea....Jonathan is making (slow) progress with his pronunciation of 'Assam'. 😉

Very knowledgeable, helpful staff. Cozy place with lots of great tea.

I have been buying large amounts of tea for my company with Postcard for some time. Their product and service is second to none.

地球の歩き方など多くの雑誌で取り上げられている紅茶屋さん。個人的にはそこまでぐっとくるものはなかった。

My go to tea shop to buy tea and to taste new ones. Very knowledgeable staff - one of the 3 best tea shops I have been to - the other two being Ming Cha in Kong Kong and Ippodo in Kyoto.

The best teas, the best advice, the most magical experience! I used to work as a tea sommelier and have 300 teas in my collection and this shop is the true gem! if you want some good tea -fair trade and organic - do not go anywhere else!! must visit for any tea lover

Beautiful tea, very knowledgeable staff. There is no comparable tea shop in London.

Great little tea shop at the heart of London that offers a wide range of good quality teas from across the world. Found some fantastic Chinese green tea and pu erh tea here.

My favourite tea place in London. Curated teas, curated space.

A very upmarket tea seller. There is a beautiful selection of teas from across Japan, Taiwan and China, and some fantastic teaware. Try a tea for around £3 (although expect to pay a little more for the rarer brews) and take then home for £14 to £20 (20 to 50g, dependent).

Really know their stuff about tea, plus free tastings if you go on to buy the tea.

Did the 1 hour Oolong tea tasting there and found the lecturers to be very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Sampled 6 different types of tea and each had its own characteristics. Quite an interesting experience if you like tea.

Trots en halvtimmekvar till öppning, släppte de in oss och gav en underbar service. Biträdet var behjälplig och nyfiken och otroligt trevlig. Man valde ett te, fick det i en box som man kan sända vart man vill som vykort, önskar man att de sänder det till en betalar man portot i butiken så ombesöjer de även det. Roligt sätt att sända te vykort. Såklart vi sände iväg ett.

Lovely tea shop, special selected teas with a bit of background where the tea has come from, something for everyone. Friendly knowledgable staff. Great gifts for tea drinkers or yourself.

You should pass .One of my best choices in London . You can select whatever you want to drink of teas , many kinds , each time choose one to know your mood . Don't miss while passing around . You will like it .
