The Red Tea Box

  • 416-203-8882
This elegant, funky tea salon has a shop that sells high-quality imported teas. In the salon, you can choose from 32 or more varieties and drink them at afternoon tea, with pastries or an Asian fusion–style lunch. There are always unusual treats on the list—Crooked Horse oolong, for example, so named because the leaves are hooked at the tip like a variety of Asian peach called crooked horse. Sit and taste them all in the tea house beyond the store’s back courtyard.
Hours:
Closed Tuesday, the month of January and three weeks in August
