‘Ello, governor (err, Denverite); do you fancy a spot of tea? If you have ever had the pleasure of enjoying a world-famous high tea from the Brown Palace, you know that it is a fun, albeit pricy experience… but what if we told you that there are more places to have tea than just the Brown Palace? Take, for instance, these 7 charming (and sometimes more affordable) tea rooms in Denver that you are guaranteed to enjoy:
1.) The Denver Tea Room & Coffee Salon (Denver Southwest)
Yelp/Jessica J.
Yelp/Cait L. Aptly named the Denver Tea Room, this Mile High favorite is the city’s go-to for not only a high tea, but also coffee, making it the perfect place to take your tea-hating husband for an afternoon date! (Please tell me that I’m not the only tea lover who is married to a black coffee kind-of guy…)
2.) Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse (Boulder)
Yelp/Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse
Yelp/Fitzwilliam D. Talk about feeling like royalty: the Dushanbe Tea House was gifted to the City of Boulder from the mayor of its sister-city Dushanbe and features such intricate details as hand-carved cedar pillars, bronze statues, and traditional geometric carvings.
3.) Red Poppy Tea & Hookah Parlour (Denver Highland)
Yelp/ Red Poppy Tea & Hookah Parlour
Yelp/Red Poppy Tea & Hookah Parlour Talk about a “high” tea: this hip Highland tea room is famous for not only its tasty tobacco and teas, but also for their killer $10 Thursday night “unlimited” special! (I’ll drink – and puff – to that any Thursday.)
4.) Teatulia Tea Bar (Denver Highland)
Yelp/Teatulia Tea Bar
Yelp/Rachelle N. If you are a busy parent, it can be nearly impossible to treat yourself to tea, right? This is no longer the case, thanks to the Highland neighborhood’s Teatulia Tea Bar and their ingenious children’s play area!
5.) Capital Tea (Denver Southwest)
Yelp/Capital Tea
Yelp/Irene L. This Yelp review says it all: “I’m part of a group of ladies that have tea once a month. We’ve been to The Brown Palace, House of Commons, Denver Tea Room, and now here. This place beats them all! Immediate, attentive service, the owner is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, there’s a large selection of teas, and the food is outstanding!”
6.) Tea Cloud (Denver Central Business District)
Yelp/Samantha D.
Yelp/mary l. If you are looking for a traditional tea room, this is not it… however, if you are looking for a new kind of pick-me-up (Boba tea, which is both cool and fruity) complete with a colorful ambiance, Tea Cloud is the place for you!
7.) Platform T (Denver Speer)
Yelp/Platform T
Yelp/Jeremy P. Last but certainly not least on our roundup of the best tea houses is the contemporary Platform T, who not only serve their leaves in store, but also by the box to take home.
