[This is not bubble tea. We are not café culture]

This is tea, reborn. Rooted in history. Reinvented for the modern world.

The Modern Teahouse is a new third place - authentic, refined and imaginative. An artisanal space that nurtures with a quiet devotion to care, connection, and well-being. CHAGEE Modern Teahouses are some of the most beautiful spaces across Asia, and we are starting our expansion in North America. This experience should blend seamlessly in the online space with our website, app and loyalty program.
