APOTHEC
318 Libbie Ave, Richmond, VA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Richmond, this apothecary-inspired sanctuary blends coffee and tea with hands-on perfume workshops that turn a casual visit into a multisensory experience. The 1920s Parisian aesthetic isn't just decoration—it's the backdrop for thoughtful, knowledgeable staff who guide you through everything from aromatic tea assortments like their Inca Hots blend to creative signature drinks. It's the kind of place where you linger, learn, and leave smelling like something special.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.
