Did not get a refill, not sure if they're offered. The place is small and I would say that was the only thing that made it a bit wonky to walk around. One customer gave me a glaring side eye when I walked past her table twice- I know! How dare I do that!? You order at the counter and a number tower card is given to place on your table. Food was brought out quickly. I would go back to try something else.

The space is clean, cozy, and comforting! The owners and staff are amazing as well! Everyone is so welcoming, friendly and patient. The owners are very knowledgeable about their coffee and tea products; Christina is in charge of the tea (and yoga) and makes her own blends, and John is in charge of the coffee and roasts the beans in house. You can absolutely tell how much care and knowledge both put into their craft and their products. I had an iced brown sugar shaken espresso, and it was exceptional! Smooth and balanced, the perfect amount of sweetness! It was, hands down, the best coffee drink I've ever had! I can't wait to come back to try their single origin coffee next time!

After finding a nice free piece of street parking right outside I entered in to this cozy little…read morecafe. It's homey with lots of wood and plenty of seating. At the counter they have a case of baked goods, I really enjoyed the cinnamon roll, but my partner found it too dry. The employees were super nice, which is always a plus at a business where customizing your order is part of the process. I will say that the pu-er tea late that I ordered was very weak. Even with a cinnamon brown sugar flavor shot it felt lacking. They sell a large variety of loose leaf teas, shirts, granola, and other goodies. For those who are religious, they have a prayer board where you can write prayers and hang them up. If I was going off just aesthetics the place looks great, but the tea was lacking, and the cinnamon roll only appeased 1 out of 2 people so I think I'm forced to give it a 3 out of 5.

I will admit that it wasn't our first choice this particular day. We had wanted to try another coffee shop down the street but it was closed on Black Friday, so thanks Common Ground for saving the day! My Aunt and I both ordered a soy Mocha and chose one of the high top tables in front near the door to enjoy our drinks and chat. It was a perfect spot, very conveniently located on the main st in Caz, plenty of parking in the lot, or on the street. The mocha was delish, and I'd love to go back and try other drinks, as well as some of the breakfast/pastry type items they had to offer.

They also have a little gift shop area with merch, candles, etc and also all very cute. The place is very open and clean and lots of potential for some cute decor.

This place was like a tea oasis! There were these beautiful selections of cold and hot brew teas. My daughter and I did a tasting. We learned a lot from the kind and knowledgeable staff. The atmosphere was warm and clean. We were really feeling so good about our experience, we decided to stay for tea and, bonus, dim sum! Wow, the food we had was authentic and delicious. We had steamed vegetable dumplings, a vegetable egg roll and mushroom & veggie bun. All flavorful and perfect snack to have with our tea. I will never go to the outlets again without stopping here!

I found Tay Tea after a friend recommended it and I stalked their website, and wow... I'm so glad I…read moreactually went in person. It's not just a tea shop - it's a world of tea, clothing, apothecary goodies, all in one space and a true hidden gem in Delhi, NY. As soon as I walked through the door, I was greeted by Nini, an absolute ray of sunshine. Talking to her is like getting a warm hug, but don't get it twisted - she is not a pushover. Once she knows you, she'll give you gentle reality checks when you need them. She keeps it real, no fluff, and she's so authentically herself that it's inspirational. This is her tea shop, and you can instantly feel how much hard work, love, and energy she pours into everything. She has an insane variety of tea - not just a couple basics. There are hand-blended signature teas and straight organic single-note teas: floral Persian Rose, rich black teas like Duchess' First Love, fun names like Better Than Sex, plus soothing herbal, rooibos, and classic teas for purists. My top two picks were Azul (Blue Butterfly Pea Flowers, lemon verbena, lemongrass) and Catskills Harvest (apple, sumac, rosehips, hibiscus, lemon verbena, wild roses). Azul is amazing iced, and with a splash of apple juice it's even more delicious. There's a huge tea bar counter where you can taste teas while you're there. I sat at the bar, trying different teas while talking with Nini as she explained what was in each one, what it's good for, and the intention or story behind it. She also has coffee, which was delightful, and I completely forgot to buy some... another reason to go back. She also sells baked goods and food like empanadas (so good), and from our conversation it seems everything is gluten-free and vegan, which is phenomenal if you have dietary stuff going on but still want treats. After my tea-tasting session, I checked out the tea section and that's where you really see the variety. There are testers everywhere so you can open, smell, and see exactly what's in each blend. Everything is loose-leaf and every package has the ingredients listed on the front so you know exactly what you're getting. I asked Nini a ton of questions - including personal health things - and asked what she thought would be best for me after I had already picked out my selections. She is clearly not just in this to make sales. Instead of pushing me to buy everything, she paused and gave thoughtful, intentional suggestions. She speaks from a real, genuine place and cares about every customer who walks in. She helped me choose products for my stomach and for sleep, on top of what I'd already picked, and I never felt pushed or pressured - just supported and understood. Once I finished picking my tea, I wandered through the rest of the store. They have a plethora of other things - clothing, gifts, apothecary and self-care items - and that's when I started talking to Jean, the other person working there. Jean greets you with open arms and has a strong, courageous, resilient spirit. Just like Nini, she genuinely cares about the people who walk in. I asked about her favorite products, she showed me her go-tos, and of course I bought one of her favorites because I love trying what other people are obsessed with. By the time I was done shopping, I didn't just have tea - I also had other products, including a magnesium foot cream for relaxation and sleep, plus some balms and other goodies. Then I went back to the tea bar and sat with both Nini and Jean. We shared stories, talked more, and went way past basic small talk. My favorite thing about them - and this shop - is that they do not stay on the surface. They care about genuine conversation, speak from the heart, and they're not just there to sell you something. The whole store radiates good energy because they are the heart of it, creating that beautiful energy that fills the space. If you're open to deeper conversation, they will match that and give you a real connection and an experience that's much better than the usual "Hi, how are you, okay bye" retail nonsense. None of that mumbo-jumbo here. Nini and Jean have knowledge and truly care about their customers. They have your health and best interests in mind. By the time I left, it honestly felt like they were family. This business is run by an amazing woman who has done incredible things and is now sharing her passion with the world, and you can feel that in every product she creates. Jean is creating alongside her - Nini built this business, and Jean is a shining star in it as well. They balance and amplify each other in the best way. I am extremely satisfied with my visit, and their products are phenomenal. You will not find better quality or a more heartfelt, intentional experience anywhere else. Between the tea bar, hand-blended teas, fashion and apothecary items, baked goods, empanadas, and the way they pour into every person who walks in, this place is truly special. I genuinely cannot recommend this shop more

So after eating breakfast at Hollow we decided to walk the strip. We'd seen this tea place at the…read moreother end of town on the way in. On the outside it looked like a house business with a little sign which seems fairly standard for this area. Inside was a whole different world. We were greeted right away by the hostess(who just so happened to be from Philadelphia also!). She had just freshly brewed two types of tea and gave us sample cups. Steph chose the decaf and I chose the caffeinated. We ended up buying them both. They had awesome handmade postcards and jewelry. There was clothing, CBD, and herbal products. Lots of great gifts for the herbalist in your family. Just a lot of cool stuff. The tea just gets you in the door. We ended up spending a while in here bullshitting with the hostess and a guest about the area and different things in the shop. I kinda wish we were up here longer and I'd hit the shop again. Or maybe next time we come up this way it might be smarter to book an Air BnB closer.
