Google map directions got me confused. I can't believe I've never knew of or been here before, so for easy reference, it's located next door to Sacks on the Beach if you know where that is. This is probably the cutest bar that serves non-alcoholic drinks and I ordered the "Double The Rocker", an Earl Grey with Lavendar and honey. This is a freshly brewed tea, no lame tea bag with hot water! The staff is friendly and great at explaining their menu. This is a great place to meet a friend for tea. There's a cafe side and a more "bar" looking side further inside. Definitely recommend if you want to unwind and enjoy a crafted cup of tea. read more

I've never seen a place like this before, really interesting theme feeling like a biker dive bar. You feel like you're walking into one but then you look at the menu and there is nothing but tea on the menu. We tried the tea flight and was served 4 small glasses of different tea lattes as they say. The service was really friendly and our server took the time to explain each drink to us (but we didn't remember them by the time we left ) all I can say is that each one had a very unique flavor profile, and I didn't really love any single one of them but I definitely liked every single one of them. I feel like this could be a cool place for a casual afternoon hangout. read more

Found this place as I was walking to the shore looking for a random matcha or coffee spot! The owner Chad is kind and welcoming, and so is Kayla! She got me right and recommended I try the The Mod (Their version of Matcha). Genmaicha, Japanese Green Tea w/ Rice & Brown sugar. since I told her I was looking for matcha. This is a quality loose leaf drink that taste pretty good! The environment feels like a bar but no alcohol is served (I think) haha l. Might not be good for a deep study spot but if you want place to chill, chat, and have a nice beverage, this is it! It's also a good alternative if you want a bar environment but don't want the alcohol, Kayla mentioned there's a group that goes on Saturday. read more

Really good tea drinks in Redondo. Not a lot of tea houses (not boba tea places) here in LA so it's nice to know about Racer Tea. The staff will talk you through their offerings and the place is a pretty nice spot to hang out and chill. read more

Tea, snacks, and treats from a local business that cares about quality at a reasonable price. I was visiting Redondo Beach and wandered into this gem of a tea shop just a block from the Embarcadero. It is a small shop inside a larger building that has a dentist and bicycle rentals, but when I saw a sign that had a picture of a hot fudge sundae and a gorgeous tea, I knew I had to stop inside and was rewarded. They only serve the ice cream on weekends, so I wasn't able to try it, but they did have delicious homemade cookies and a chai tea that made my walk back up the Embarcadero even more enjoyable. Staff was friendly and the food made me wish I was in Redondo beach more. read more

This is my favorite caffeine in the Southbay and I've lived here my whole life. I've never had a bad drink here and they make it the same every time. Favorite ambiance of any cafe as well. A MUST TRY. I'd give racer tea 11 stars if I could. Also their jalapeño bagel is insane. Greaser and rocker are so read more

Not sure why I have never been here before! Delicious pb acai bowl and peach tea latte. This is a cute concept, like a bar but no drinking, with good 90s rock music when we were there. My only comment is all seating is for 1 or 2 at tables or a bar, so it would be a little tricky with a bigger group to sit and talk, unless you want to sit in a row at the bar. (But I get it, beach area rents, it's hard to make enough with tea and lighter healthy foods to have the space larger tables would require.) Service was friendly and everything was tasty. We will return! read more

Racer Tea Bar Has the BEST Açaí Bowl -- Just Like Brazil I'm seriously obsessed with this place. As someone with family from Brazil, I've been on the hunt for an authentic açaí bowl for years -- and Racer Tea Bar absolutely nails it. Out of all the açaí bowls I've ever had in the U.S., this is by far the closest to the ones I've had in Brazil. Now I want one every single day! The ambience is super cool and different -- it has such a great energy and unique vibe that makes you want to hang out and stay a while. You can tell they put thought into every detail, from the food to the atmosphere. Racer Tea Bar is truly a gem. I hope they're here for the long haul because I don't know what I'd do without that açaí bowl! I've had their teas as well and they're also incredible Support your local small businesses! read more

Fun vibe, delicious and creative tea-based drinks. Such a lovely addition to our area! I love all the drinks I've tried, like the Hillbilly. A small menu of food items like avocado toast, also quite good. read more

Cambria made our experience here incredible. Highly recommend this place. Delicious teas and coffee as well.

I stumbled upon this place in the area and I'm so glad I stopped to try. One of the major appeals for me is that all of the drinks are made with oat milk. Not everything is vegan though-- there are several things with honey in them, some of which can be customized with agave instead. I got the seasonal purple haze iced tea with reduced sweetness and agave in place of honey. It was absolutely delicious! My friend ordered the rocker iced tea with agave and that was also delicious. I would love to come back and try more of the teas and their coffee puff which looks and sounds phenomenal. This was the drink that several other people in the shop had ordered and recommended. They also offer alcoholic beverages, and some snacks and treats, including plant-based scones. :) read more

Personal service- everything prepared with love ...best açaí bowl. Great little bar for ambiance.

Great, friendly service. The bowls are delish! My son asked for somthing off the menu (buttered toast) and they gave it to him! Sara is awesome and is doing it all by herself will DEFINITELY come back! :) read more

I had someone recommend this place after I said I had a penchant for loose leaf tea and boy oh boy did they steer me in the right direction. The vibe is welcoming, and the atmosphere crosses between biker chic meets moody bar. Kayla behind the register and making drinks was so sweet. I told her it was my first time there and she ran me through the whole menu. Their teas are made latte style with oatmilk, and oh my goodness are they delicious. I got the "ILY" which is a black tea with pomegranate, bergamot, and sweetened with house made vanilla syrup. I also picked up a delectable blueberry and cardamom hand pie--it reminded me of a pop tart, but fresh, flavorful, and homemade! I can't wait to go back and try more of everything. Tea flight, here I come (soon). read more

Wow oh Wow, was I blown away with this place. Have been wanting to go for a while and we said, today's the day. Came up from the beach, wondering what we'd find in there secluded spot. BAM!! walk and just like, what a different kinda space. Dark and vibey, cool things everywhere you look, reminded me of nowhere I'd ever been. TOO FUN!! Now let's get to the tea, never seen a menu with so many interesting items. They're begging you to come back to try more, they are all so interesting, fun, insert any amazing adjective. We got the Beanick no honey, couldn't believe it was tea. Such a rich deep flavor, even with no honey it tasted superb. We didn't sit there but bar looked very inviting, next time for a mocktail. Thanks for a very impressive debut. Standing ovation, for sho. read more

Racer Tea Bar - The origin of Racer Tea. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Redondo beach, California

I love this cute little spot. The guys that run? own? the place are super friendly and are always willing to suggest the right drink depending on what you're looking for and what time of day - they have super caffeinated drinks as well as caffeine free. It's one of our new favorite spots to grab a latte and walk along the esplanade. There is a sort of 'bar' space in the rear but it's not a place you'd probably hang out in - just grab your drink and head out somewhere. The only negative here is the drinks are fairly pricy. You can almost certainly get a cheaper drink at another shop or Starbucks, but there's definitely much more charm here and the guys are really friendly. read more

Today I met the owner Chad, who was very nice and gave us recommendations My friend ordered the CHERRY LIME RICKEY, a soda from the 1910s. Only a few of the staff know how to make this drink and fortunately Chad was here on this day to make one! One can only order this drink to drink at Racer Tea Bar, ( not to go). I ordered a Peach Rooibos ice tea which was slightly sweetened with honey. The Cherry Lime Rickey arrived in a chilled tall glass and beautifully presented ( see photos).i got a sip of this refreshing soda with a ZING! I really liked it. We also bought several of their "hand pies" to go for later. These pies are sweet, made with blueberries, lemon and cardamom. I waited to eat mine when I got home, and it was heavenly; not too sweet, and oh so tasty for dessert. These blueberry hand pies sell quickly and now I know why! Thank you Chad and the staff at Racer Tea Bar! You made our day! read more

Me and my husband love coming here. We appreciate that they close at 8! Some coffee shops close a lot earlier which makes this our go to if we want something in the evening hours. The barista Allie is always super nice! She's really great at recommending lattes and giving a small sample to try. As someone who no longer drinks I love the bar concept. It's super relaxing to just step in and sit at the bar while sipping on a tea or a latte. I highly recommend the rocker for all my earl grey lovers out there. Or if a latte is more of your thing I recommend the greaser! read more

Literally a hidden gem! It's my go to spot for when I go for walks at the beach! My absolute favorite is the greaser (mocha nut mate w/ caramel & agave) it's on the higher caffeinated side! I have also tried the Mod which is on the medium caffeinated option, it's their matcha version which is made out of genmaicza Japanese green tea w/ rice & brown sugar! Also fairly good! Service is great! Super sweet :) read more

Amazing Tea with crazy interesting taste profiles and fantastic flavors. Also, probably one of the best Acai Bowls I've ever eaten, both in SoCal and let's say globally as well! Can't recommend this place enough! read more

I've been here more than a dozen times now since moving to this neighborhood about a year ago, and can hands down say this place is my favorite pit stop on the way down to catch the Riviera Village sunset. PERFECTLY crafted oat milk tea lattes with a low key yet very cool good vibe. Favorites that I've tried: The Ton Up (turmeric chai) - I get this one over and over again! The spice is just right. And perfectly sweetened with maple syrup. The Goth (almond oolong with honey and salt) - imagine sipping the flavors of a delicate almond cookie. But, you can't really go wrong with any of them! Thanks, Racer Tea Bar, for being one of a kind. read more

Hidden gem in the South Bay. Locally owned and operated. Everything about this place screams rock n roll. First and foremost, the drinks are the star. You won't find a better selection of tea lattes in town. Every drink on the menu has its place. Right now my go to is the Bayou Brew. Think dirty chai on steroids. The staff is super friendly and inviting, they'll welcome you and your dog in with open arms. But I also get the sense they'd tell you to kick rocks if you were rude or demeaning...and I mean that in the best way. The setting and decor is pure rock and roll...think OG Hollywood rock bar feel. Seating is definitely limited, but it just adds to the vibe. Worth stopping by for a tea to take for a stroll on the strand. read more

You should try this place! I recommend the rocket with the earl grey, lavender, and honey. It's got a subtle spice and a just right sweetness. The medicine man is good too.

The dragonforce acai bowl was very good! Excellent sweetness in the dragonfruit base with a great combination of granola and fruit drizzled with honey. The serving portion is also large, so come prepared with an appetite. The punk tea--a variation of the Thai tea--was fine but wasn't very special in flavor or presentation. The menu also offers coffee, ice cream, and even old-school sodas. The service was great: polite and quick. The evening ambiance is very cool with its motorcycle themed decorations in a bar-esque setting. The concept is unique, so I expect to come back to try more items. read more

Awesome ambiance, even better teas and service. Worth the visit if you're looking for something special!
