Flushing Tea Shop Teaus Adding Park Slope Location

A lot is changing on one block of 5th Avenue. Three adjacent storefronts on the stretch between St Marks and Warren will soon see a new car service office, a Nutella-themed space, and now, in the former home of The Chocolate Room, a new tea shop is coming soon.

Teaus, which opened a shop in Flushing, Queens earlier this year, recently installed an awning and put a coming soon sign up in the window of 86 5th Avenue, and they’ve announced on Facebook that they hope to open on Labor Day.

Serving a variety of teas, teas with fruit, tea smoothies, and more, the main thing that’s led to some hype at the Flushing spot is the shop’s use of glass bottles — they’ve got a cork stopper, which some have complained about for not providing a tight seal, but most reviews on Yelp seem to dig the novelty of them.

Get a preview with a menu here, and then let us know if you try it when they open over the holiday weekend.
