New Mexico Tea Guide

5 tea rooms and tea shops in 1 city

New Mexico's tea guide covers Albuquerque and a clearly labeled extension to Los Ranchos de Albuquerque. The St. James Tearoom in the North Valley offers a reserved two-hour afternoon tea with changing monthly menus. The Ivy Tearoom is the Los Ranchos option; its full afternoon tea requires a reservation even when light snacks and drinks are available to walk-ins. Snapdragon Tea near the university separates a cafe order on a tiered tray from its booked themed service. For leaf and brewing tools, compare New Mexico Tea Company on Mountain Road with The Fragrant Leaf in Nob Hill. The latter's dated afternoon teas have their own booking terms, distinct from ordinary shop hours. Plan one tea meal and one retail stop rather than expecting every address to offer the same service.
