Formerly Steeps Tea Lounge, they carry Steeps tea (from Calgary)
Not my favourite place, but not terrible. I like the “choose your tea cup” approach. I love sitting with a pot of tea and some nibbles, but everything they offer is so large. I would go back here, but not regularly. There are definite changes they could make to bring their products and services to a better standard.
Passing this tearoom several times on the 99 b-line, it always looked enticing to jump off at the Cambie stop and sample what teas they have available to serve.
Finally I did.
From the first step into the shop to finishing my “jar of tea”, I felt strongly like I was in a STARBUCKS. WTF?
To most, that statement will come across as an insult. But not To Pekoe Tea Lounge. That would ring in their ears as a compliment because underneath all this terracotta floor tiling, dark wood furniture, fake wall paintings, complimenting terracotta-colored walls, and genuinely uninspired decor, a look to be EXACTLY LIKE STARBUCKS is precisely the intention of Pekoe Tea Lounge.
That sucks.
The tea sucked.
I suck for even ordering there.
