Interior of Teado Tea Shop on Hester Street
Heritage

A small house for big tea.

Tucked into 145D Hester Street, Teado was founded on the belief that bubble tea doesn't have to be loud to be vibrant. We source single-estate leaves and cook our boba fresh in small batches every day.

Our shop is simply appointed, focusing the attention where it belongs: on the aroma of high-mountain oolong and the precise temperature of our whisked matcha.

Best matcha in the LES. The staff actually cares about tea quality, not just sugar content.

Tiny shop, huge soul. The osmanthus oolong with grape is the kind of drink I think about days later.
Priya S. · Manhattan
Authentic, unhurried, and consistently excellent. The raindrop cake alone is worth the trip.
