This is a nice loose-leaf tea shop (the only one in central Birmingham?) hidden away in a lower level of this shopping centre. It sells over 100 types of tea (lots of blends, black, green, oolong, some white, rooibos, some herbals) including some very interesting blends (Swedish/Stockholm blend is a lovely black tea blend, and rooibos creme caramel is also very nice, as is south sea magic) which you can buy in teapot and have a seat to drink, or take away in 100g bags or 25g samples. No food in the cafe part of the shop, but you can bring in your own lunch and eat it while having tea, which is a nice touch. Also sells a good selection of tea pots etc. and staff are very friendly and knowledgable. Worth a trip.
