This tea house is one of my favourite hidden gems in the city. The owner is very friendly & knowledgeable about teas, & serves some very yummy desserts that i will definitely be going back for (I haven't tried her savoury dishes yet, but they look delicious)!
The shop also holds a fine collection of cute handmade ceramics that are displayed for sale.
Just note that if you're trying to go to the tea room, it's a shoes-off zone once you pass the curtains! Slippers & boxes for your shoes are provided at the entrance.

We've been to this tea shop twice in a week & absolutely love it! It is very authentic & a little piece of Japan right in Montreal. They have a great variety of imported teas within different price ranges. We did the tearoom at the back both times & is a lovely experience. The owner, I believe her name is Chiro, is very friendly & welcoming. She explains the teas very well & how to make them. The desserts are wonderful & such great quality. They list the ingredients in the menu which is very nice as you rarely see that. We will keep coming back!

Their tea selection is huge & we ended up choosing what the owner recommended. The green tea was mind blowing. The tea is exceptional quality.

We also got 2 desserts & the complement the tea so well. One of them is rice mochi & the other is a creamy mousse cup. It feels like a little piece of Japan in Montreal. A truly amazing experience. However, seats are limited so you might have to squeeze in a little bit. Love the atmosphere, hospitality & tea!

This particular tea distributor offers workshops on tea tasting. I hadn't been there before the workshop, but the owner was kind & knowledgeable & she even offered scrumptious homemade treats accompanying the teas we were trying out. It was a great experience & would 100% go there again. *** Ce distributeur de thé offre des ateliers de dégustation de thé. C'était la première fois que j'y allais & la propriétaire nous a servi des désserts faits à la main pour accompagner les thés. Quel délice! :3 J'ai adoré mon expérience & je recommande ce magasin de thé & ses ateliers à 100% pour les curieux.

A neighborhood hidden gem with cozy vibes, friendly service, a large selection of teas, & delicious, innovative yet authentic desserts. Highly recommend the mochi dessert plate!

L'espace est intimiste & restreint. Toute réservation est recommandée si vous souhaitez avoir de la chance de vous y asseoir en fin de semaine. La nourriture est délicieuse & délicate. & que dire des choix de thés offerts. Je m'attendais à ce que le ochazuke (risotto japonais) soit fade, mais c'était tout le contraire. C'est super de trouver des places avec des plats & desserts japonais, sans que ce soit limité aux éternels sushis. Note: ils offrent des options sans gluten. Pour une première expérience, c'était fantastique. J'ai hâte d'y retourner essayer les autres items de leur carte.
