The London Traveler

The fabulous tiny Twinings tea shop

by Jed on November 26th, 2007

Twinings is one of the most well-known English tea brands, and has had a London store since 1706.

Since 1717, Twinings has had a shop on the Strand in the heart of London. It still exists today, and is a must-see shop for anyone that has a spot in their heart (or palate) for tea! It’s good enough that they have a Royal Warrant… ie, they supply the British Royal Family with tea.

Be forewarned, though… the Twinings shop is tiny! But it’s filled with all kinds of varieties of tea, coffee, biscuits, and everything else you need for a proper tea party. Finally, at the back of the store is a small museum focused on Twinings and tea.

Again, if you’re a tea-lover, it’s something you shouldn’t miss!
