Lonely Planet review

This is a pleasant, nostalgic place to while away half an hour - provided your visit does not coincide with the arrival of another tour group. Trace the route by which tea conquered the world, making its way to the sitting rooms of Holland and England and further afield from the eastern seaports of China; nearby Butler's Wharf once handled 6000 chests of tea in a single a day.

Alternatively, simply enjoy the chintzy cornucopia of tea- and coffee-drinking equipment, from floral teacups and silverware to Japanese canisters of tea. In the adjoining Tea Room ( - ), your cuppa is served with an egg timer so you can get the infusion just right.
