Who We Are
Marais Tea Co. is a French-inspired tea atelier rooted in the belief that life is made in the small, unhurried moments. From our Tea House & Café on Mill Street to our curation of fine leaves and blends, everything we create is meant to bring a touch of beauty and comfort to your everyday ritual.
Our Story
Marais began with a simple idea: to slow down.
We hoped to create something bright and inviting — a space where people could pause, breathe, and savour. What started as a small tea counter has grown into a full tea house and café, but the heart remains the same: to offer a place where everyone feels welcome, seen, and unhurried.
From classic breakfast blends to single-estate teas, each leaf is chosen with care, steeped in story, and crafted to bring comfort wherever you are.
How We Choose Our Tea
We source from growers and gardens whose craft runs deep.
Our Master Origins collection highlights remarkable single-region teas — from high-grown Ceylon to the mountain estates of Kenya. Each tea is selected for character, clarity, and the quiet pleasure it brings to the cup.
We never rush the process. Quality takes time, and so do meaningful moments.
Café Marais
Café Marais is where the everyday slows just long enough to feel a little magical — a place where Parisian warmth and simple beauty meet for a moment. Step inside and you’re carried somewhere gently French, somewhere inviting, somewhere apart from the rush.
With warm drinks, French-inspired pastries, and a touch of old-world charm, we hope every visit feels like a small escape — even if just for a few minutes.
A Moment Worth Savouring
We hope you leave Marais with a little more calm than when you arrived — a moment savoured, a cup enjoyed, a memory made.
Whether you visit us in person or steep with us at home, you’re always welcome here.
