"Such good tea and great vibes! They were giving out free tea due to the cold weather this week and ended up buying some too because it truly is that good."

"I was visiting Pittsburgh one weekend and I came across Blue Monkey Tea. I’m a huge breakfast tea man so of course I had to check it out. The tea is amazing!! Pittsburgh Breakfast is 10/10 for sure. I’m pretty sure they have $5 shipping too. Thanks Blue Monkey"

"Went to their tea class 101. As much as I love tea, I didn't realize there was so much I didn't know about tea. The owner is so knowledgeable, friendly and just a joy to engage with. The variety of loose leaf teas was slightly overwhelming, but tastings during the class helped me make decisions. Prices were very reasonable. Parking can be difficult but hey, it's Squirrel Hill."

"Really nice little shop. Prices are fair and selection is good. Decent selection of Chinese teas for gong fu but definitely caters more to flavored and herbal tea drinkers. The woman who runs the shop is very kind and has even replaced a broken gaiwan lid for me at no charge. At least 2 times I've gone I've been given samples to try out and that's a very nice gesture. One complaint is that parking is difficult on the street, but that is no fault to the shop. Highly reccomend the jasmine dragon pearls, white silver needle jasmine, monkey picked golden hunnan, golden monkey, milk oolong, and organic TKY oolong."

"Small store with a LOT of teas, herbs, and spices. There was also lots of really cute teaware. I was able to find a few teas I have been trying to find for cheaper than other places I have been to. The blends are also very interesting and sound really good. Limited myself to several items but will definitely be back for more next time. If you don't feel like going in person they also have $5.99 US shipping on their website and virtual tea classes."
