Best priced teapots in town
by babydollsmiles at Citysearch
I was out looking for teapots for Christmas gifts and I stumbled onto The Path of Tea. I was so surprised to find the teapots so reasonably priced. I saw some of the same sets in the Galleria for twice the price! They had pots from Japan, China, Korea and Germany. I saved so much money I could buy one for myself as well. I also did not know they were the only totally organic tea shop in town. That is great. I will do all my shopping there this year.
- Pros: Best prices in town
- Cons: Isn't right in my neighborhood

Are we on the East Coast?
by ElleGn at Citysearch
I am from Boston and we have many places to go and hang out and have great tea. I stumbled into the Path of Tea after having lunch next door at Field of Greens. I felt like I was home in Boston! This place is wonderful. They have alot more organic teas than I have ever seen in one shop. As a matter of fact, they are all organic. Wow! The tea was brewed properly and tasted great. I have been drinking tea for 45 years and I never knew all the things they taught me about tea in ten minutes. The service was fantastic and the lemon bars were heavenly! I love this place and will tell everyone!
- Pros: Great selection of organic only teas, great desserts, great service
- Cons: None
