Leaves Book & Tea Shop

I have been here a handful of times over the past few months and it is always a great experience. The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and happy to suggest an item. The scones have been a favorite with my wife and I, with both the sweet and savory ones never disappointing. For teas, I would highly recommend the Honey Lemon Ginger, slightly sweetened..very refreshing!

I have been here at least 3-4 times in the past week, and that pretty much sums up how I feel about this place. Such a magical place. I don't even know where to begin. This cute and homey cafe is located on Magnolia. It's almost hidden and I have driven past this location multiple times. They have a plethora of yummy baked goods that are freshly made each morning. Each time I have entered, there is something new to try. My personal favorite is the almond chocolate toffee muffin. Did I mention that their matcha is yummy and only $4.50 for an 8 oz cup? I had the best time eating and drinking my goods while reading my book the other day. Seating is limited, however, my favorite spot is next to the bookshelf and window overlooking Magnolia Street. Such a pretty sight, especially on a sunny day. They also have book-friendly curated events and novelties in the cafe. In one corner, there is a 'blind book date' section where you can pick out a book based on the blurb written by the sharer. In the other corner, there is a section where you can write little motivational messages for anyone to read or pick up. They also have sparking tea's! Good variety of things to try here, you won't get bored :)

Great staff and the treats are DELICIOUS. I always get 3-6 items — both savory and sweet — and it’s delicious. Have only tried a tea once and it was good, but keep in mind that tea isn’t meant to be super sweet or anything. Loose leaf tea has hints of different flavors so if you’re not used to it, you might not like it. Overall great vibes!

I loved the Adam bomb cookies! I see why the cookies continue to be a best seller. I was hesitant at first thinking they were soft chocolate chip cookies. They had a nice crutch, plenty of chocolate chips, and a delicious cream frosting. The cinnamon strudel and apple crumble muffins are big, flavorful, and baked well. The banana chocolate chip, cafe au lait, blueberry maple, and peppermint white chocolate cupcakes were all a bit dry. The frosting on each cupcake had a burst of flavor. Unfortunately, cupcakes and muffins aren’t items I'll consider purchasing again. Note: The shop name has changed. Unsure if there's a new owner. The staff I encountered was friendly and the ambiance was warm and cozy.
