The Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse
1770 13th St, Boulder, CO
Crema's Take
“This stunning Tajik-inspired teahouse is equal parts architectural marvel and cultural experience, with hand-carved wooden details and intricate pieces imported from Dushanbe that create an almost otherworldly atmosphere. While reviews are decidedly mixed on service consistency and food execution, visitors consistently praise the extensive tea selection and the building's sheer beauty, making it more of a destination for the immersive visual and historical experience than a reliably polished café visit. If you're drawn to unique spaces with genuine character and don't mind some operational rough edges, the Dushanbe Teahouse rewards curious explorers with an unforgettable setting you won't find anywhere else in Boulder.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
