Our Story

A corner store
with a point of view

Tea Project started with a simple frustration: the best tea in San Francisco was either buried inside a tea shop with a 40-item menu or hidden behind wholesale-only pricing.

So we built something in between. A neighborhood counter on San Bruno Avenue where you can buy loose leaf by the ounce, grab a fresh pastry that was pulled from the oven that morning, and actually sit down with a cup that was steeped to order.

What We Believe

Good tea doesn't
need a ceremony.
It just needs time.

Steeped properly

Every cup is steeped to the exact time and temperature its leaves require. No timers skipped, no shortcuts taken.

Sourced with intent

We know the farms our tea comes from. Direct relationships, fair pricing, and a commitment to sustainable harvests.

Made for neighbors

This isn't a destination. It's your corner. We'd rather serve the same regular well than rush through a crowd.
