Travelling Samovar Tea House

Drink tea:

The Travelling Samovar is a remarkable tea house in the heart of Carlton North, where drinking tea becomes an experience. Over 50 teas from the best growing regions of Japan, Burma, India and China are served with style and ceremony, true to their cultural origins.

The tea house is a beautiful little gem, where you can sit in the secluded garden or by the open fire, surrounded by south East Asian artifacts. The Travelling Samovar is the perfect place to escape the buzz or the mundane and to discover truly magnificent tea accompanied by wholesome house-baked cakes.
