Crystal Cove and Tea
430 E 25th St, Tacoma, WA
Crema's Take
“Tucked in South Hill Mall, this charming tea haven blends exceptional loose-leaf teas and matcha with a carefully curated crystal and mineral shop, creating a uniquely inviting space where tea lovers and crystal enthusiasts naturally converge. The staff's genuine warmth and knowledge shine through in every interaction, whether you're seeking the perfect steep or hunting for an uncommon stone, and the whole vibe—complete with Pokemon figurines and a relaxed, lingering atmosphere—makes it feel like discovering a friend's favorite hideaway rather than just another coffee spot.”

I love the teas here! I don't go to South Hill Mall often, but I always stop here if I get the chance. Super friendly employees! They have a cute selection of Pokemon figurines, crystals, etc, and I bought a few things from that part of the store, too.
Marcy and irene were very helpful finding items in their shop for me. If you ever want to go to a crystal shop I recommend coming here.
I've been here a handful of times specifically to pick up some tea. (One of my close friends loves taking a look at all the crystals.) And it's always a wonderful experience. The store has a very nice/chill atmosphere and all of the employees who work here are fantastic. Especially the girl with pink hair and one i saw with turquoise hair a couple of days ago during the Halloween event at the mall. Recommend to anyone and everyone.
Came across this shop while looking for a good tea shop and was pleasantly surprised to see the stone selection. Owner clearly puts effort into having the less common stones and prices reflect quality. Tea was by bulk and looked so tasty. Definitely making this my regular shop for unique stones!
Stunning! Quality stock at very reasonable prices. The cashier working today was amazing (Moss)! They were kind, welcoming and authentic. This place has a little something for everyone- I have a woodsy smelling candle (which is in a tea cup and matching saucer!), an adorable strawberry glass straw and a beautiful crystal tower. 10/10 will be back for more.
