Tea Inc in Wiltshire

This is my favourite place I’ve visited on this mini holiday. Beautiful, calming ambience, interesting, kind staff, the most excellent sweet and savoury gluten free scones I’ve had, and I thoroughly enjoyed my delicate green tea. Thank you for a lovely afternoon.

This is a stunning find, tucked away in a little alleyway (The Ginnel), off the Market Square in Devizes. It's an absolute gem of a tea (and coffee, if you prefer) café. With a wide range of teas (black, white, green oolong, herbal and fruit), you could easily ring the changes and have a different tea every time. With plenty of advice on the taste of each tea and (probably) how best to enjoy it, you will want for nothing to enjoy a refreshing drink at different times of the day. They also serve food including a variety of cakes and scones. There is also a delightful shop on site. And while you're there, you can read some tea-based books as well. You can easily find big chains of cafes and coffee shops in Devizes - however, you would do really well to try this unique experience at Tea Inc.

What a little gem Tea Inc is! Am not usually a tea drinker, so the vast array on offer, and the expertise of the staff, is very sadly wasted on me. I do love my coffee, though, and haven’t yet found a cup in any of the other many Devizes cafes that holds a candle to the consistently wonderful brews at Tea Inc. Slightly tucked away, but always well worth a visit - knowledgeable and welcoming staff, excellent value for money and charmingly quirky. Oh, and the food’s pretty good, too!

We love this small café tucked away off the main square in Devizes. Always a friendly welcome and often a good chance to chat with staff and other customers over a coffee or one of the many choices of tea. This is tea heaven with the opportunity to buy the loose tea to take home afterwards. The cake choice is good and the lunches filling! If you fancy a cream tea then these compare with any upmarket venue in Bath without the hassle and associated crazy prices. This is a veritable oasis for like minded people who want a quiet location for refreshments with a warm and friendly ambiance.

Never fails to disappoint - tea selection unrivalled, delicious cakes and friendly service. Highly recommend you visit the best establishment in Devizes.

We stumbled upon this delightful tea shop while waiting for laundry to dry at the launderette (as we are staying on a canal boat). I’m so glad we found it!! Tea Inc had the *best* London Fog I’ve ever tasted, and the most scrumptious scones (be sure to get the premier ones!). Plus an incredible gift shop upstairs with any kind of loose leaf tea you could ask for - perfect souvenirs for family & friends.

Amazing slightly quirky tea rooms and shop. Amazing range of teas and coffees all perfectly served and scones to die for. They do a small unusual lunch menu at good value and staff very friendly and professional

The reviews don't lie. A fabulous independent tea shop with a unique lunch menu. A highly enjoyable and rewarding experience.

Staff really friendly and knowledgeable Food (mine gluten free) excellent Huge choice of lovely teas Been a couple of times and both visits have been wonderful

A genuine 'hidden gem'! Superb coffee. great ambience and friendly, efficient staff. Overall, a very pleasant and enjoyable coffee break.

Wonderful tea! Lovely little tea shop in a quiet ginnel off the main square in Devizes. The afternoon tea looked amazing. The tea we had was very special.

Always my 'go-to' place in Devizes. The huge choice of tea is amazing - my favourite Chilli Chai has a fantastic bite to it. Sometimes I treat myself to one of their more yummy unusual savoury scones. The quirky decor just adds to the overall experience and is in contrast to the busy stressful world we live in.

We’ve been coming to Tea Inc for several years and love its warm, friendly vibe & delicious scones. Sadly, today the warm, friendly vibe was distinctly lukewarm, although the scones were yummy. The 3 people serving spent most of the time we were there talking amongst themselves in the kitchen & not really interacting with the customers 😳 After waiting a while to be served, I had to go to the kitchen & ask for a lunch menu, then it took another age before anyone actually took our order (despite only one other table being occupied)! There was another over-long wait when we wanted to order post-lunch coffee & cake. Hoping that it was just an unfortunate off-day, because Tea Inc has always been our go-to hidden gem in Devizes

We stumbled on Tea Inc on our visit to Devizes today. My decaf flat white and coffee and walnut cake was delicious and my husband really enjoyed his tea and raspberry and pistachio cake. We will definitely be back.

Simply wonderful. This is a really special place. Teas galore, lots of different coffees, amazing savoury scones, cakes.... Not to be missed

friendly greeting, made to feel very welcome. service was quick and the drinks were amazing. staff very knowledgeable about both tea and coffee. Would recommend to any one.

Delightful independent cafe / tea emporium. Asked a local for a nice place for a light lunch - what a great result. Lovely selection of light bights with ( of course) great tea. The team were a delight and prices good. To top it all, a personal blend of tea as a take away. We would strongly recommend for any visitor to this market town.

I’ve been enjoying Tea Inc for many years. The coffee is consistently excellent, the decor pleasantly quirky and the staff lovely.

This tea room is so unique & full of character. It's not very big but does not feel cramped. The staff are friendly, the service good & it has a good atmosphere. I'd highly recommend the cake & coffee. If I lived in Devizes I'd be a regular.

What a little gem. Wonderful coffee, cake and scone. Can't speak for the tea but it's clearly taken very seriously and looked amazing. Thankfully the proprietors don't take themselves as seriously as they take the food and drink making for a wonderful spot and worth finding. Not to be missed!!

Looking for a cup of tea and spotted the sign for Tea Inc. We went down a narrow alleyway and found this delightful tea shop in a very old narrow building. Although there is not a lot of space there is loads of character. The cream tea was excellent and everything seems to be homemade. The staff made us very welcome, service was quick and prices reasonable

Such a really brilliant find. Most amazing tea ever and excellent service. Spoiled for choice of both tea and coffee. Food looked delicious as well.

Everytime I go here, I always feel so welcomed. All of the staff are incredibly kind and helpful- and they give great tea recommendations. There is not one thing on the menu that I do not like, the food is all amazing, especially the scones and cakes. There is so much choice, something for everyone! I highly recommend giving Tea Inc a visit, but warning if you do- You won’t be able to stop going back!!

While wondering around today in THE GINNEL in Devizes came across a sign saying Tea Inc. Looked very interesting so thought we’d pop in for a look. It’s gorgeous. What a smashing little find. Didn’t really have a look at the menu as the beautiful Christmas mince pies were catching our eyes . So ordered 2 mince pies with brandy cream. Very festive and the most delicious lattes. Scrummy. They were both amazing. Will defo be paying them a visit again

We visited on a Sunday morning whilst waiting for the nearby museum to open. I recommend the Turkish delight tea. Unbelievably good! The manager/staff are so passionate and knowledgeable about the drinks on offer and are happy to advise on the choices and the best brewing time. We'll definitely return if in Devizes again and next time make sure we have cake as it all looked incredible.

What an amazing place. We had a ploughman's lunch with warm savoury scones - divine! Well worth a visit.

When visiting Devizes,I always come here for my breakfast . They are welcoming and food is great.looking forward to my next visit .

A hot afternoon in Devizes and we spotted an advertising board at the entrance to a passage off the main street. Although small it is popular with locals and visitors. The was a good friendly atmosphere generally. The choice of teas was most impressive as was the choice of cakes. Perfect for almost instant refreshment.

If you have not been to this Café please do.. Good idea to work your way through the 10 or 20 or 30 or forty or ?? Different teas. I have tried a couple but like the house mix best. Go at Lunch time and try the amazing meals. Please try the soup. It is delicious. Every thing else is just excellent. Staff are genuinely friendly and helpful. I am not always coherent due to assorted meds but staff know me now. Strong tea, soup and cake so not much to say. Cakes taste homemade, lady that cooks and delivers them is gifted. Not much else to say. Amazing tea selection, lovely staff, very nice food, and hmmmmm the Cake! Stay safe and have fun.

my brother and sister-law treated me too cream tea absolutely delicious scones to die for and tea best i have tasted in years we go back

A little gem tucked away down a little alley off the main square, this is a lovely spot for tea and a cake. Love the wide range of teas that they offer and the range of home made savoury (and sweet) scones. It was a grim and rainy day when we visited Devizes but our visit cheered us up!

An amazing find tucked down the ginnel in Devizes! Brilliant afternoon tea and fabulous Victoria sponge cake (no calories in either one!!!). Very friendly welcome - can thoroughly recommend this place 😀

Just looking from outside I knew it was going to be a delightful experience and the food did not disappoint. The homemade soups are rich and very flavorsome and the dishes use very creative taste ingredients.The only disappointing side was the service, it's a big part of my experience: a very friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive service is what I look for. But it just didn't live up to what I had expected on the two occasions that I went there, and just left me feeling a little flat when I left.

A place chosen a bit at random to meet a friend, a warm welcome - only light lunches available, and a lot of notice needed for an afternoon tea but the food was a little different and at last a place offering savoury cream teas and a good choice of scones.Cake slice was lovely too My friend was delayed and they allowed me to sit and wait without having to order lots of stuff to keep the table. If in the area again would definitely return.

What a little gem of a place. More teas than you could imagine. I had marzipan tea and it was very nice. We also had the savoury scones and really ebjoyed them.

Visited Tea Inc. in the Devizes Ginnel today and what a pleasure it was. Fantastic range of wonderful teas, scrumptious scones/clotted cream/raspberry jam (with liquorice!!!) and the most friendly service. If you are in Devizes, you must go here (entrance off the Market Place).

Tea Inc is one of the best places ever for fabulous cakes, superb homemade soups, great coffee and fantastic tea choices. It's in a beautiful historic building, full of quirky charm;the team are warm and friendly and you can even browse cute little teapots and a huge range of real tea. It really is a wondrous place!

Off the Main Street but we saw their sign and wandered in, so glad we did! Lovely food, great selection of teas made properly and lovely staff. Would highly recommend - thank you!

Had an amazing afternoon tea here twice both times have been amazing. Would recommend to everyone. Tea

Where to start? This place is amazing! I've been going for quite some time and it is definitely my favourite spot in Devizes. I frequently take my dog with me who always gets spoiled with cheese! They are definitely dog lovers here! Although the lunch menu is petit, (understandable as so is their kitchen) they have a variety of food to cater to everyone. The Vegan Pasty is incredible and the scones are like no other, the Goats Cheese and Caramelized Red Onion is by far the best of the savoury options and when I have sweet, it can only be paired with the succulent Blackcurrant and Liquorice Jam. Paired with the Vata (destress) tea, which starts off with notes of Cardamom, Ginger and Cinnamon and as it slides down your throat you get the welcomed sweetness of the Liquorice, you just cannot go wrong. Staff are incredibly friendly and often go out of their way to make sure that everyone is receiving the best possible service, I have never once felt that service was below average. Music selection is just fabulous too, plenty of variety and songs that I haven't heard since the 80's! My happy place! Long may it continue with its success. Thank you to the whole team! A true hidden gem!

Avoid this place. We had been taking our dog in on numerous occasions with no problem. One day we went with a friend and dog. Owner flatly claimed we had never be allowed in with a dog and in the process was extremely rude. I don’t like being lied to.

Great tea. Lots of selection and presented perfectly. Staff very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly.

This is a proper gem of a place. Lovely little quaint tea room. Good menu, tea and coffee are superb, but I go for the Stilton and Walnut scones, with loads of butter. Service is great.

It's got a good selection of teas and light snacks but is wholly inaccessible for wheelchairs without help. It's a shame. If it'd not be for that fact I'd be there far more often.

Friendly spacious relaxing atmosphere where we went for mid morning coffee and teas and ended up staying for an excellent light homemade lunch.If you miss this one then bad luck because it is just up the hill to the left of the Town Hall and reputation will keep this cafe alive

After reading all the positive reviews, I finally paid a visit to Tea Inc. this afternoon and was not disappointed. We found a superb selection of teas and coffees in lovely quirky surroundings and a very knowledgeable waitress. I had a lovely almond tea, which completely lived up to my expectations, and a delicious homemade vegan mince pie while my daughter was very impressed with her matcha latte. I will definitely be coming back!

This charming cafe is at 5, Kingsbury Street, Marlborough SN8 1HU is definitely worth a visit. It has a lovely atmosphere with a small gift shop on the basement level. The service and food is excellent with so many interesting pieces of furniture and furnishings. The menu is diverse and offers choices for everyone. Different types of tea and coffee are also available to try. Take a stroll down memory lane and enjoy the casual atmosphere.

Tucked away. This great cafe is not on the Main Street and is easy to miss. As the name suggests it is a tea specialist. There is an extensive range available. Good coffee as well. A lovely setting plus gorgeous soaps in the loo

This is a lovely little cafe that, as the name suggests, specialises in tea, with an extensive menu ranging from fruity and herbal teas to traditional builders’ blends!

So many teas and all of them top quality. So much so I really now cannot stand teabag tea and find other cafes selections disappointing. The coffee is rather good too. Scones are big and delicious, cake selection always tempting and lunches are all fresh, tasty and seasonal. I love the cosy atmosphere, friendly staff and chatty regulars. Definitely my happy place.

my mum and I visited here for afternoon tea , the waiter was very knowledgeable and incredibly friendly and the cakes and scones were out of this world would highly recommend , lovely quirky tucked away location , will be going back,

We haven’t visited for a while, good to come back to friendly yet discrete service. Fantastic scones and some new teas to try out. Feels like coming home! Looking forward to visiting the Marlborough tea room

If you're a tea connoisseur then this is the place. Serves excellent cake in a fine Georgian property tucked up an alley. Staff are always friendly and courteous.

I have visited Tea Inc many times and will always return here on visits to Devizes. Best hot chocolates, best scones and cute interiors. I can’t wait to visit the Marlborough shoppe ☺️

Coffee was so good we bought the beans. Lunch was from a limited menu of freshly made, delicious alternatives. We will be back like a shot. So impressive for a tiny place, tucked away off the main square.

Wonderful tea and coffee! The scones and brownie were delicious and the service was friendly and prompt. Would highly recommend.

We were in Devizes for the day, never having been before, we stumbled across this wonderful, intimate cafe.

The location was good, small rooms but the tables were not too close together, so it felt intimate without sitting on top of other customers. The staff were lovely and knowledgeable about the tea. The scone was freshly made and served warm, absolutely delicious. Went for afternoon tea and ended up also buying two types of loose tea to take home. Good price for all as well. Will certainly be returning, probably very soon.

This is a really lively tea shop off the beaten track. The selection of teas is brilliant. The homemade cakes are beautiful. It's a cosy little hideaway to relax.

680086181 We were on holiday in the area and found this delightful cafe in an alley in Devizes (almost missed it!). The service was impeccable and the warm scones to die for! Despite its name the coffee was also excellent. Recommend it 100%

Tea Inc is a wonderful friendly and quirky tea room and shop tucked away down an alley in the centre of Devizes. We will definitely visit again when we are in the area.

We were in Devizes looking for a vegetarian cafe and found this gem of a place hidden away up a narrow passageway. The food was amazing and we both had crumpets topped with garlic mushrooms served with a lush salad and two cups of superb coffee.

Fabulous little gem of a place. Great tea and coffee, cakes are wonderful and scones are unbeatable, go there it’s worth a trip.

Hiding down a narrow passageway this little tea shop is a gem. Very friendly staff. True tea experts offering a vast range of brews. Food menu is somewhat limited but my choice, open toasted cheese sandwich with chorizo, chicken & peppers (I forget the quirky name) was excellent. I wasn't very adventurous with the tea opting for the house blend which was very good.

As we have been here a few times and have always enjoyed we decided to take my niece for her birthday lunch. It was Bank Holiday and unfortunately many of the options on the menu were not available. It would have been helpful if the website had reflected this.

Went to tea inc yesterday and it was an absolute delight. The building, the tea choices, the food (husband and I both had scone ploughman’s), the staff, it was everything a teashop should be. I loved it and were it to be closer to where I lived it would definitely be top of my frequent visit list. Well done tea inc!!

Tiny little place up The Ginnel, with two small rooms - one downstairs, and one up a narrow rickety staircase. Lots of fine teas & coffees, nice cakes, pleasant service, lots of quirky furniture. Lovely olde worlde place.

3 of us went to tea inc yesterday for my mums birthday and had a lovely afternoon tea. The staff were very attentive and nothing was too much trouble. I’m vegetarian so I couldn’t eat the meat sandwiches, they did me a separate afternoon tea and everything was lovely, plenty of it, we had to ask for the remainder to be put in boxes! The variety of teas is vast, so many to choose from!

A cosy tea shop with a great tea menu and selection of cakes. We have been impressed by their vegan cake options - the brownie is delicious. Friendly service too. Thanks

What a lovely place! Small, incredibly friendly with a whole menu of teas, and the best scone I’ve ever had (bacon and maple syrup, served with cream cheese and chutney). So glad we chose to go!

Tea Inc. has become our 'go to' lunch place on a Friday. The choice of teas is staggering and there's always something new to try. The scones are delicious and make a great choice for lunch. The cakes look amazing but never seem to have room to try. Lovely people too!

I really am a fan of this place. I took my girls out for a late lunch of ploughmans scone platter plus brioche with melted cheese. All beautifully presented and delicious. I was minutes away from complaining however as it took 30 minutes to arrive. I appreciate that it was an extremely busy Saturday but I had to watch other tables who arrived after me bring serviced whilst my two children who were tired and hungry got increasingly upset, grrrr! If you had asked me if I enjoyed my lunch when I paid I would have given you constructive feedback

Without doubt one of the best independent tea rooms in town. Staff are welcoming and the atmosphere is somewhere between Victoriana curiosity shop and a high-end boutique!

Up a ginnel from the main high Street. No disable access. Great choice of teas and coffees. Can recommend the illumina tea. Few pastries, scones and biscuits. Staff very friendly.

This is a beautiful quaint hidden sanctuary. Delicious food, excellent service, yummy coffee, teas, gorgeous pastries and scones. The ambiance is warm and cozy. The service impeccable, and presentation gorgeous! Highly recommend!! I had the autumn salad, almond flat white and blueberry scone.. I am wanting to taste all the food and cakes on the other tables!

WoW what a lovely place to visit . Wander up an ally off the main drag and you go through a black door into a beautiful eating and drinking area , we were upstairs and we found it really nice and the friendlyness of the girl that served us was outstanding. Can't really explain it in words but just visit this place for beautiful tea and a bite to eat ! Enough said . Thank you .

We went into Tea Inc for coffee but as it was midday thought we might also have lunch. The service was really slow, there were other people waiting but there was no urgency to serve us and there was a lot of chatting in the kitchen. We didn't have lunch as the soup was not going to be ready for 20 minutes and one of the other options on the small menu was not available.

It's so lovely to see a proper cosy, quirky little tea shop and cafe in a beautiful setting 'The Ginnel'.

Our office is next door to Tea Inc. They have taught us everything we now know about tea blending and right proper coffee......and cake! Quite possibly the best and most original recipe cake we've found on any Tea Shop menu (and we've tried many). It's a lovely old fashioned tea shop, beautifully themed and offering an extremely comprehensive menu of hand blended teas, coffee just how you like it and no shortage of other choices. Whether you are looking for somewhere to have a very well presented and tasty lunch or a traditional afternoon tea (or even one with a twist - we loved their Lavender Scones with Earl Grey Jam) - you won't go far wrong with Tea Inc. It's a tradition in our office to schlep next door whenever our heads hurt from planning and we need rescuing!

Tucked neatly away in The Ginnel, Devizes, this cosy little Tea Shop fulfils all my criteria, for a friendly respite from the mundanity of daily life

We are regular visitors to this fabulous hidden away tea shop. Not just loose leaf tea of every origin, great coffee and a lovely menu.

This is a lovely cafe hidden away in the Ginnel in Devizes with an array of sweet or savoury scones and, of course, an abundance of tasty teas. I had the savoury scone ensemble which was delightful. A must see and do.

A lovely setting – a tiny seating area crammed with eclectic trinkets – and friendly service - a warm welcome on our arrival – promised much. Things looked even better when we received separate food and tea menus, the latter filled with tempting options that included a chocolate tea and three types of Earl Grey. Of course, I settled for the traditional Earl Grey to see how their tea compared with so many others. Suffice to say that this resulted in things getting off to a poor start and then quickly going downhill. The Earl Grey had an unusual character, a heavy citrus aftertaste that reminded me of Twinings (after they changed their original best-selling blend and sent Twitter into meltdown). The unpleasantness was only exacerbated by the tea being served up in cheap clear-glass mugs – the kind that I used to see regularly in the cafes on Margate’s seafront when I was a boy. So were the unpleasant teas (my better half had a marzipan-flavoured tea that seemed to taste more of bitter almonds) seen off by wonderful food? In a word, no. Crumpets with bacon, cheese, figs, and maple syrup seemed like a wonderful combination. And if you like crumpets you will be onto a winner as they taste of little else. The bacon looked like Parma ham and had the subtle flavour of supermarket-value wafer-thin ham. The cheese was just a simple cheese spread and with little depth. The figs were soft and watery. And the maple syrup seemed diluted, providing none of the expected sweetness. Given I was expecting something special for the £18 for two that we paid, this all proved very disappointing. Still, if you like bland food in a wonderful setting, this could be tea room you have been searching for.

We tried Tea Inc on the spur of the moment and it has now become a weekly visit. The variety of tea is fantastic and I am slowly working my way down the menu. The cakes are all fantastic,and home made - I try a new one every visit too.

We popped in to Tea Inc after a couple of hours walking around the canal to Devizes. It is a small and friendly cafe/shop specialising in loose leaf teas and coffee. We had 2 flats whites, which were piping hot and very tasty. I had a Stilton scone and my wife had a fruit scone cream tea with raspberry & earl grey jam. The scones were homemade and reheated in the oven. The jam didn’t have any real early grey flavour. Both scones were very good. We had a look around the small shop that is upstairs and purchased a couple of bags of tea.

Tea Inc does tea. And cakes. And lunches. It does them very well indeed. Lovely people providing lovely food. Try it. What more is there to say?

We tried to have lunch here but ran out of time, but having looked at the menu we resolved to return after we had done the brewery tour nearby. We are not tea drinkers so this would not seem to be a natural destination for us. The coffee however was great, but the savoury "cream tea" was brilliant. I can particularly recommend the red onion and goat's cheese. We arrived just half an hour before they shut and were very glad to have made it in time

This place has a mind boggling menu of teas, spoiled for choice, their cakes are great too. Beware of the stairs to the upper level!

Excellent choice of herbal and regular teas great food especially the scones and service with a smile

After reading the reviews on Trip Advisor we decided to stop here for a light lunch and we were so glad we did.

I’ve been here on two occasions, but the second time we were refused service because they said they were ‘full’. It was about 4.15 and the staff, who seemed quite frazzled, said they were just going to serve the existing customers and then close at 5, plus they said there were no cakes left. Now, there were some seats and cakes still available but clearly the staff were tired and didn’t want any more customers! My friend and I thought this was quite rude and won’t be returning - instead we went to Times Square round the corner and were served lovely cream teas.

We visited on a Saturday for a light lunch. We ordered the smoked bacon and maple syrup ploughman's scones, which came with butter, cheddar cheese, chutney and apple slices. Everything was truly delicious with well-balanced flavours, but a special mention must go to the homemade scones: perfect texture and seasoning.

Visiting with family (including a baby in a stroller) and the girls serving could not have been more accommodating. We were only going to pop in for a tea or coffee, but the food looked so appealing that we ended up having a savoury and sweet cream tea each. The savoury ploughman’s was such a great idea and was really tasty. A lovely fresh cheddar, sea salt and pepper scone, served with slabs of cheddar cheese, a homemade tomato relish and real butter. I died and went to carb heaven! Just be aware, no baby change facilities and only bathroom is up a narrow flight of stairs, but we managed and it was worth it for such a lovely bite to eat in town.

Serves a variety of different teas, coffees, cakes, biscuits and light lunches. Also a variety of scones both sweet and savoury.

We recently visited this tea room and had excellent service. They have a wide range of teas and the coffee is also very good. The downstairs seating area is quite small but there's additional seating upstairs, plus a gift shop for tea lovers. The stairs are very steep but the staff are happy to give assistance. They also serve delicious cakes and scones etc.

We visited Devizes for a holiday with my husband and were very impressed with the choice of teas on offer! We tried a traditional “cream tea” and immediately enquired if they would deliver scones to our own restaurant! :-) thank you for a wonderful experience Tea Inc!

We decided to try this out as we like proper tea. ( no tea bags)

Delicious coffee, great atmosphere right in the centre of town. Highly recommended, and we would definitely come here again.

My wife and I stopped here for a cuppa, such a lot of choice of teas and coffee, lovely scones and cake. Good friendly service and a real quaint place to sit and eat.

One of the quirkiest and most charming tea shops in England. I went for the peach and orange white tea and stayed for the Smokey and the Bandit open sandwich. Try both!
