We served our last pot of tea on Tuesday, December 30th, 2025.

But….you can still enjoy our loose leaf tea and many tea tools online at www.TeaCellarTea.com.  If you’re local and wish to pick up, you sure can!  Just put your items in your cart and when you’re ready to pay, click on “local pick up.”  This will waive all shipping fees.  We will call you when your order is ready to be picked up.  Our pick up location is 1903 W. Ridgeway Avenue in Waterloo.  Brick building.  Lower level.  Across from Casey’s.  The door will be open most days until 6:00 p.m.  Currently, we’re closed on Saturday and Sunday for pickups.  Hope that’s easy enough!

It has been an amazing run!  We are not “going out of business”, but rather we are pivoting, aka taking another direction.  Stick with us, won’t you?  Life sometimes makes you pivot..

You can also find us in several HyVee, Fareway, and coffee shops in and around Iowa, along with the Alchemy House in South Dakota.

This is not good-bye…but see you later, friend!  And thank you….for your kindness, your support, and your friendship over the years.

As my pastor likes to say….”if you’re not dead, God’s not done…”  We’re not done…
