Tea Lounge
The Tea Lounge is full of old couches and comfy chairs that people hang out in for hours. In the afternoon, you'll find moms with strollers. Late night, it's hipsters with laptops. If you want a high tea experience, go elsewhere. if you want a very relaxed neighborhood spot, this is your place... if you can find a seat. In spite of the name, tea is not quite top priority here. They serve wine, they serve sandwiches, they serve pastry. The tea is good quality, 20 or so varieties, whole leaf, but they put it in a pot, give it to you at the counter, and (sometimes) say 'you should let this steep four to five minutes.' You carry it to your table and take it from there. Some counter people are, shall we say, indifferent, while some are fun and helpful.
