DAVIDsTEA

Everyone here is beyond nice and helpful. They offer you a sample of a seasonal tea or something new as soon as you walk in.
They have something for everyone here flavor wise, and I like that they let you sniff whichever canister of tea you might be interested in.
So much tea!

Got here just before this place closed. But still the staff was so sweet and accommodating. My friends knew what they wanted. But I’d never been to a David’s tea before. They have a huge selection! Everything smelled so good!
I forget the woman’s name, maybe Angelina, she was great. I got an ice pop with mango something… Mango madness maybe? Anyway it was fantastic! Perfectly sweet. I wanted to try so many of their blends.
I don’t know what makes them different from a Teavana or other similar places. But I would definitely be willing to go to this place again and try more. So happy to have a location close to home to go to.

This is a must stop for tea lovers! My fiancé and I are tea obsessed, but this place seems friendly to novice drinkers as well. The customer service can’t be beat and their unique selection make them a great place to grab a tea or purchase for future use.

I found this place while I was in Lincoln Park and looking for a place to hang while waiting to catch my flight back to San Diego. I’m so glad it wasn’t there while I lived in San Diego because David would have ALL OF MY MONEY. He already took way more than I was intending to spend that morning.
The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. I loved the teas I left with and I wish I had more of that pineapple oolong. Such a lovely tea shop.

If you like tea this is the place for you! So many different kinds of tea, ranging from organic to any other kind of exotic tea you like! The sales people are always so friendly and helpful. I will go in there and spend an hour smelling tea and you would think that they would get annoyed but they dont! They love tea just as much as you do!
Yay for David’s!

Earth is happy about David’s tea! It isn’t often that there is a place that is responsible with their waste, but David’s is on the better side.
Positives: They have biodegradable sample cups and ice tea cups! David’s gives a discount for bringing your own to-​go cup and they give a 50 cent discount for bringing your own tin when buying their loose tea.
Negatives: David’s has great green practices, but their main product, their loose teas, are packaged in plastic. Every tea that is sold is packaged in a 2 or 4 oz. plastic bag, which makes for a lot of waste! David’s To-​go cups for hot teas have plastic lids.
Please continue your green streak and serve your loose teas in a bees wax-​lined or a plant based bag. There are a lot of greener options! It would also help to create signage or just regularly inform your customers about the tin discount– i never knew about it until now! Your to-​go lids could be plant based too, and you could further urge your customers to bring in cups by actually charging for the to-​go cup. :)

Wow… I only wish I would have come inside sooner. The selection of teas are delightful. There customer service is supurb. The quality of the teas are amazing.
They have a loyalty program/​card where you get a free tea prepared and points acumular for every purchase.
I hade a sample of the coconut cream and had to buy it. It was so good. I also purchased a sampler box with spring teas that smelled amazing.
Their employees are very knowlegable and helpful when making inquiries.
This is by far, very far better than teavana. The quality of the tea’s at David’s teas are far superb then the teavana’s.
Sample some and you will know what I am talking about.

I am a David’s Tea superfan.
Before experiencing a Chicago winter, I thought I was not a tea drinker. Hah! I was wrong. I lived right around the corner from this wonderful shop in Wicker Park. I absolutely love all of their teas, the fun tea gifts and their tea pop (hidden gem!!!).
They do not have any locations in Los Angeles yet, so I order online. This tea is just the best. I have gotten so many coworkers and friends hooked, too.
Their frequent steeper program offers great rewards so be sure to sign up.
Some of my favorite teas are: Jumpy Monkey, Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait, Queen of Tarts and Mother’s Little Helper.

This place is fabulous. Wonderfully friendly staff who always put a lot of effort into making sure you get a tea that you like, a tea selection to die for, of which you can sample one each day and sniff-​sample as many as you want, seasonal flavours each quarter, a great loyalty scheme, fast wifi, a clean bathroom… Seriously, this place is the best.

I love tea. In fact, I’m willing to say I’m a tea whore. All kinds, all ways, anytime. Hot. Cold. Fizzy. Green. Herbal. Rooibos…
Let’s just say that I’m probably David’s best customer.
The colorful wall of tea makes me swoon and can suck me in every time. No matter how often I walk in with the mind frame of «I just need one thing», I always walk out with $ 75 worth of tea. It’s like Target, you can’t ever just go for one thing.
There’s always free samples, sales on accessories, and the friendliest damn people to ever work in any retail location. EVER. I swear, they must put something in the tea there… they’re beyond nice. I love how you can purchase just one ounce of tea if you’re unsure if you’ll like it. (Ahem, unlike their biggest competitor…) If you’re a frequent shopper like I am, make sure to sign up for rewards. $ 100 = 100 points = 2 free ounces of tea. If you’re a newbie and unsure what to get, pick up one of their many gift sets that often includes 5 – 12 different teas.
My biggest complaint about David’s Tea is that there’s not enough of them. ((Thank goodness we have one in the burbs now)). Since they’re a Canadian company, there’s only a handful in the Chicagoland area. ((tear))
In summary, I love David’s Tea. Obvi.

I LOVE DT!!! These ladies are so knowledgeable and very attentive! Abbey is the BEST!!! I have only great things to say about them!

I’m making the switch over from coffee to tea. Walked in very friendly staff, was offered a sample of their mint coconut and immediately I knew this was going to be thee place for tea. They offered me smells from all over and that enticed me to come home with a little bit of everything. They also have these cool tea bags and you can fill them up with the loose leaf tea which I thought was pretty neat. Overall great experience here and I’ve brewed my first tea and I must say this was amazing !

Davidstea is awesome! My new obsession. The staff here is SO friendly and helpful without coming off as pushy or pretentious. They are all so excited about tea and their jobs that I almost always leave with a smile on my face. I wish all wicker park shops could be as lovely as Davidstea!
There are teas here for every occasion, in every flavor. Plus there are always free samples of seasonal flavors. If you have your tea and are looking for tea accessories– this is your spot! I use their mugs for both tea and coffee, they’re the perfect size.

So, I work with a girl who gets tea every day from here and one day I decided I needed to give it a try. She comes back to the office and I can smell the wonderful aroma from her tumbler daily. I just so happen to go when I’m sick and can’t smell anything. I tell the two fabulous chicks behind the counter this and they bring out «cold 911» and have me take a smell of it. I could breathe again just from the quick sniff. I decide to get the hot version of it, even though it’s 95 degrees out and humid. Amazing. I felt better halfway through it and I’m convinced it is what cured my cold.
So the whole wall is covered with tea. Black tea, white tea, herbal teas all there for you to see. More than willing to bring the canisters down for you to smell and so very knowledgable about what is inside! I can’t wait to try them all.
If I could add a couple more stars I would. Do yourself a favor and go here. As soon as I walked in they had two samples poured for me almost instantly. I’m sure you will find something you love.

Pretty neat tea place.
DAVIDsTEA offers so much variety in the realm of tea, almost anything you can imagine. The quality is excellent and the prices are reasonable. You have the option of adding carbonation in your tea as well.
Free samples and a loyalty program are available here, but seating is limited.

If you’re a teabaggin’ fan like me, DT has all sorts of colors, scents, flavors, shapes, and sizes that your little British tea and crumpets loving ass desires. The staff is knowledgeable. They can seriously describe every tea in each of the tins, up until the very last tiny leaf they are made of. Some are not even teas but instead just herbs. Hooray! I paid attention during my tea lesson.
Anyways, some of my favorite tea choices you ask? Red velvet and birthday cake, sweetened with agave, add soy milk please. Yum! I also just bought the sleepy time tea. I’m excited to try that!
The store itself is small, only a few tables, but yet very clean and still welcoming.
I will definitely return! Thanks, David! You smart little genius, you. ;)

We happened to park outside David’s Tea on a trip to Wicker Park, and it was very cold so we decided to head in for a hot cup of tea. We were greeted right away by the friendliest salesperson (I am so mad at myself for forgetting her name… Was it Tracy?). She gave us both samples of the monthly special, the strawberry rhubarb parfait. It was very good! She then talked with us about our tea drinking habits (loose leaf green tea in an infuser), and pulled a bunch of teas for us to smell. We probably smelled around 20, and she was so patient the entire time. We finally settled on the chocolate oolong, which is a winter special. You should definitely try it!!! I got two ounces, and then she gave us a free cup of tea to go, in any flavor. A cup is usually $ 3. I decided on the chocolate chili chai, since it was the tea of the month (November), and it was a great choice. Phenomenal! She showed us how they brew their tea with the perfect scoop, and the turquoise cups are adorable and are well insulated. For 2 oz, I only paid $ 10, which is a great deal for loose leaf tea.
We will definitely be back! Excellent selections, wonderful customer service, clean and cute interior… What more can I ask for? Pick up a tea menu when you are there, and they have teas listed by type with detailed descriptions.

Eighteen months ago, I quit caffeine (like only a fool would do). And ever since I have been missing iced tea like nobody’s business!
Last weekend, we were walking through the area when I noticed David’s Tea. I decided to pop in for a quick look around. In less than thirty seconds, I was sipping on a sample of caffeine free iced tea goodness and yapping it up with one of the sales associates.
She knew her stuff! Well, actually they all did. I was sniffing teas and she was helping me eliminate those that were too spicy for me. And then she introduced me to their steeper. This thing is so cool. Put a little tea in the steeper pot, pour in boiling water, let it steep and basically hold the pot over your cup and watch the tea come out. As little or as much as you want at time. I was sold! Well, not exactly. I couldn’t see spending $ 25 on a steeper and then more money on the tea itself.
I walked out.
We went about our afternoon in the neighborhood and on our way back to the car, I marched back in. Decided on two fabulous teas, the large steeper (go big or go home, right?) and the tea measuring spoon. I earned a discount card to be used for the rest of the summer. Cha-​ching! And we had the pleasure of driving back to the burbs with some wonderfully fragrant tea.
And in the five days since then, I have not regretted my purchase for a moment. The steeper is fabulous!!! I can use it at my home or office. It’s lightweight and easy to clean.
Don’t tell the hubby, but I am planning a trip back to the David’s again later this weekend. Not because I’m out of tea already, but rather because I have decided that no one can ever have enough tea options. Drink up, my friends!

David’s Tea is a charming shop that sells delectable tea!
The free samples being handed out one Saturday afternoon enticed me enough to stop in. I’m a big fan of herbal and white teas so I wanted to see what they had in stock.
The store is bright and the color scheme is great. I love the use of the pastel colors. My mood instantly brightened as I walked into the store. The saleswoman who helped me was very knowledgeable and helpful. She listened to the types of teas that I liked and made some good suggestions. She was not pushy either.
For some sweet, herbal teas try the Pink Flamingo and the Bear Trap. I also got the Mango Madness for a sweet, white tea with a little caffeine.
You buy the teas by the ounce and the prices vary by the type of tea. I bought an ounce of three different types. They also sell canisters for you to put the tea in to keep it fresh. There are also several tea accessories (makers, spoons, timers, etc.), mugs, teapots and teacups.
The store is a bit small and the main aisle is narrow. I definitely would recommend checking out their website to see their selection so you can get what you want quickly. Also, there is one couch with one table so only two to three people can sit and enjoy their teas.
Overall, great teashop and definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.

Who knew tea could be so fun?!
With flavors like COOKIE DOUGH (white tea with cocoa nibs, almonds, walnuts, caramel and chocolate chips) and SLEIGH RIDE (herbal infusion with apple, hibiscus, candied pineapple, candied papaya, beetroot, cinnamon, raisins, coconut, almonds, and popped rice) this Canadian tea shop can turn anyone into a tea addict!
As soon as I walked in, I was offered a small sample glass of their tea of the day, sleigh ride-​hooked! The tea connoisseurs behind the counter are more than friendly and knowledgeable about all canisters of amazing loose tea leaves. I even got a how-​to tutorial since I had never before used my tea infuser tea pot.
So many cute tea accessories to choose from too! Tea pots, tea travel mugs, tea spoons. Definitely a great stop when shopping for the tea lover in your life!
Only wish there were a more inviting place to sit and sip your tea. There’s a single couch in the front of the store.
