There can't be too many places to enjoy a well-brewed cup of tea, and Leland Tea Company provides an especially homey and welcoming environment in which to enjoy it, with exposed brick, funky wood tables and chairs, and vaguely Art Nouveau ladies painted on the walls. The charming William, one of the owners, will greet you and lead you through their special Loose Leaf Tea Bar possibilities: dozens of canisters you can open and sniff to determine your favorite (they'll even blend something special for you on the spot). Food to go with your tea ranges from homemade soups, sandwiches, and salads to fresh baked goods. Classic tea services come on three-tiered stands; variations include your choice of triangle sandwiches (perhaps the classic cucumber or salmon salad), romaine salad, fresh fruit, scones, and butter cookies. And, if you really must, though teatime is about relaxing — there's free wi-fi.
