I have gone to this "health" store on and off for years and NEVER have I had good customer service,…read morethe employee, or owner follows you around as if you are going to steal, and I completely understand you can not trust many people, however, its somewhat annoying. Not to include he is not people friendly, although he is somewhat knownledgable to his products. I also hate to be pushed to purchase something that I am not wanting 100%.....even though it is very small the store has some great products...but I would rather pay extra for better customer service. To conclude...if you liked to be followed, pushed and treated like your only money...then I would recommend this place.

We love this store for gifts and treats for ourselves!…read more It's definitely a great place to grab a gift - there are so many fun options, so whether you want a unique edible item, lovely kitchen towels, or a beautiful wearable item, you're sure to find something. We love the spice mixes and especially the drink syrups for our house - they're the perfect thing to have on hand to make any evening or gathering extra special. The service is always so friendly and welcoming. They will package things up beautifully for gifting and make suggestions, but they're never pushy. It feels so homey and is the sort of place you feel good about supporting.

What a beautiful shop! I bought so many lovely and unique items there for myself and as gifts. If…read moreyou're looking for something special that you won't find anywhere else, Spice & Tulips will be the place!

I wanted to get some local honey for my tea, so I stopped by after lunch. This cute little somewhat…read morehard to find shop is hidden to the right of Landeros Mexican Restaurant & you have to walk down a little arcade and then the entrance is on the left. They have tons of interesting spices, teas, rubs and other paraphernalia for cooking & tea drinking. I ended up getting two small bags of tea & a wildflower honey bear. I appreciated how everything has clearly marked prices as well as detailed ingredient lists & explanations. Service was fine. There was one customer in front of me who was buying a lot of items. One employee was helping her and the other was on the phone. No one acknowledged me for a few minutes and finally the employee helping the other customer asked me if I was ready to check out. I said yes, and she rang me up. It was slightly awkward as I'd been standing there for a bit. Oh well. Despite that little setback, this is a cute shop and they have interesting blends and items that you may not be able to find elsewhere. It is worth a visit! Peace.

My grandma loves it too, and we're both huge fans of Carol--she's the sweetest, kindest part of the experience. Whenever Carol is there, the whole visit feels amazing. She always helps me pick new, fun teas and knows exactly what I like, as well as what my grandma might enjoy. I also struggle with sleeping, and the Sweet Dreams tea from here literally helps me--it's become a must-have for winding down at night. If you're a tea lover or just looking for a friendly, welcoming shop, Old Town Tea Merchant is the place to go, and Carol makes it truly special. We were even able to do a wine and spice pairing at my family's restaurant it was a blast.

Absolutely loved our tea tasting experience at Mama Wang's Pantry this past Saturday! From the…read moremoment we arrived, everything felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully put together, but the true highlight was Mama Wang herself. Mama Wang was incredible--so passionate, energetic, and genuinely excited to share her knowledge. You could tell she knew the tea inside and out. She explained everything in such an engaging and easy-to-understand way, and her love for tea really shined through. She made us feel comfortable, cared for, and completely immersed in the experience. The tea itself was wonderful, and the entire tasting felt special and memorable thanks to Mama Wang's dedication and hospitality. Highly recommend this experience if you're looking for something unique and meaningful. We'll definitely be back!

Never knew such a respected herbalist store was so close to our home. My wife and I stopped in on…read morethe first day of H2 2026, and found a lot of interesting things, some of which we bought and others we will save for later. Kelly helped us to gather and purchase three things: small dried chinese ginseng root ($9), Herbal Tea Blend ($6) to hopefully remediate canker sore symptoms, and a custom made herbal oil ($20) for natural pain management. She spent quite a bit of time with us, since the last two things needed the backroom to custom formulate. Square is their payment processor, with credit cards and Venmo being accepted. Types of product: -- a large collection of herbs, available as single ($10 per oz) or combined ($15 per oz). -- donated herbs and dry goods section: visitors can place or take shelf-stable products. Would have thought -- collective: various donation based sponsored clinics/classes. one example is 'Intro to Herbalism', taught once a month (first Saturday of every month). -- chocolates from Endorfin foods -- custom made essential oils, with testers -- incense sticks and sets -- loose teas at $3 - $4 per oz -- books and literature -- apothecary supplies -- gemstones and tarot cards The inside is super organized, promoting a sense of calm to explore. Kinda reminded me of some of the shops in Sedona, AZ. Their website is also very good, neatly organized to help you find what you need. Parking is limited (one driveway spot for customers), but street parking in the area during the day is not so bad. I think the best description about their business is what they wrote about themselves: "Green Wisdom provides highest quality bulk herbs, ethically sourced, and apothecary ingredients and supplies. We have a skilled herbalist on staff at all times to answer questions, create personalized formulas, and offer assistance. We are also one of the most respected herb schools in California, offering apprenticeships, workshops, and individual classes. In 2020 we will be providing donation-based herb clinics staffed by our advanced apprentices and overseen by trained herbalists."

This is the only herbal apothecary in the area that I'm aware of and it's also one of the few affordable apothecaries in Long Beach. You can tell their mission is really to make herbal remedies and medicine from the earth accessible to everyone. All of the women I've encountered who work at and run this door are deeply knowledgeable. My favorite activity is to go here with some type of issue or ailment and to ask them to make me a custom tea blend to help support my body's healing capacity. But this place is so much more than tea and herbs! It's a lovely little marketplace which features crystals locally made honey and handmade trinkets of all kinds! Every visit feels like a unique, tiny adventure and I look forward to coming every single time.
