Communitea

History

In March 2005, we opened the first teahouse/cafe in LIC Queens NY on Vernon Blvd in a former Pharmacy. We served the long-time locals, tourists and new residents for 10 years in that location- creating lasting friendships during that time. In late 2016, we moved to our current location- a Mid-Century retail space twice the size of our old location. We can now cater to bigger groups, baby-strollers and host events including a monthly Horror Bingo Night, Chamber Music Concert Series, Art Openings and other monthly gatherings. In addition to our extensive tea selection we also serve local craft beer and Kombucha both on tap and a selection of wines and specialty drinks.

Specialties

We offer the largest loose-leaf tea selection in LIC as well as Irving Farm Coffee, comfort foods including vegan and gluten-free options, brunch, and home-made pastries! The locals love our giant Buddha Bowls, rotating specials & our seasonal drinks. Join us for happy hour: serving wine, cider & local brewed beers on tap!
