Don’t know what Brooklyn Stroller Brigade means? Curious about each and every Maclaren stroller on the market? Like afternoon sing-a-longs and the occasional kid band? It’s the Tea Lounge, which acted as yuppie central in Park Slope’s early days as a yuppie destination. I long gave up trying to hang out here AND maintain sanity.
A little skimpy on the outlets, but free Wi-Fi nonetheless. Semi-comfy couches and cute baristas! When it isn’t overtaken by mommies, it’s freelancer-central.
If you can get past all the new mommies, accompanying strollers, and tweens, the Tea Lounge is the perfectly comfortable free Wi-Fi place to get your tea fix.
Yeeeeah, so a lot of people come here, and hence, it’s laid-back, but not exactly calming or peaceful. The couches are comfy, but very used (and spilled on), but that only contributes to the laid-back feel, remember?
Dozens of teas are organized in a flat shadowbox-like container, and your cup and pot come on a cool wooden block. Ask for honey just to get those adorable wooden honey sticks. The Moroccan Mint is my favorite!
