So much fun to try the 5 teas that were poured into the harbor! Although the smell of one tea was so bad I didn't dare try it. There are places on either side where you can pour out the tea if you don't care for it. The clam chowder and scones are also really tasty. Perfect stop for a treat after the museum tour!
After the historical tour @bostonteapartyships, we went to Abigail's Tea Room and for $3.99 get a mug to try the historic teas thrown overboard back at the Boston Tea Party.
There were 2 green teas: Singlo and Young Hyson Green Tea. The Bohea is similar to Lipton Tea. Congou was a little heavier. Then Souchong was from Fujian province, where my family is from. It was like smoky charcoal to smell and taste.
What a budget way to enjoy and learn history!
Tasting the 5 teas was a good experience. I suggest taking a picture of the description of the tea, then reading it at a table. This allows for everyone to read at their own speed without collecting a line.
This is a MUST STOP for anyone that is wanting to check out the local area. This place is so fun! They have out all 5 of the most common teas from the era and you get to drink all the tea you want for a small charge. They also have a Sam Adams whiskey flight for under $20 and that is killer also. If you are in the area and want to check out a cool place with a little bit of a history lesson, i say you should stop. The tea is amazing, the service is great and the whiskey was fantastic!
The tea was so good, and it was very cool to be trying the famous tea party teas. Everyone was really friendly, and the environment was nice too! The tea tasting is so affordable, and it was really fun to try these unique flavors. Who'd have thought smoked tea would be so yummy! And the chive and cheese scones also hit the spot!!

Long layover to Paris so touring the city of Boston was an amazing adventure. Came across the tea house with the most amazing journey. Tasted the 5 teas during the famous Boston Tea Party including a self-guided tour of the city scenery. I’m always thankful and excited for new experience.
This place is awesome. Had a fantastic tea party time. LOL.
Thinking about experience - the Boston Tea Party! Tea itself should've been better, though. Nevertheless, $9 with gifted tea cap, listening story from the YouTube sitting comfortably while drinking tea is absolutely worth it!
$3.99 for a tasting cup and a historic place to visit and learn about history. A must-see you in Boston! You'll get to taste 5 different teas that are thrown out at Boston Tea Party!!
Enjoyable experience with all you can drink tea for a good price. It is suppose to be the tea that was carried during the Boston Tea Party. Area is cozy and there is an outside sitting patio with a view of the boats.
Firstly, get the whole tour package - the ship experience et al. They do an amazing job of giving visitors an immersive experience.
The tea room offers great views of the harbour and ships. You can get a tea tasting with various teas, including the types of tea the colonists would have enjoyed had they not thrown them into the water. There is also an afternoon tea, complete with scones and cream - very reasonably priced.
All in all, a great experience!
We loved taking a break from our walk to enjoy these teas!! Very historical and comforting at the same time. Do NOT skip this. ENJOY
Lovely setting for an afternoon tea. Pay for your cuppa, get a cup. And try up to 5 different teas. Also some lovely tea cakes on offer.
Lovely gift shop. Also good views of the boats and along the river.
I love this place I been to Boston so many times and never spotted this! This is now my go to is perfect to drink tea eat pastries and enjoy the beautiful view! Is affordable for about 4 dollar you can taste different teas and then refill your tea. Is free to enter if you are in the area this is a must! And super friendly staff!
Great place to stop by if you’re in the area and wanting a fun historical spot. Entrance to the tea room is free and at the cafe you can purchase drinks/ pastries. For about $4 you can get a cup in which you can have unlimited tea. You’ll be able to taste test between 5 different teas.
There’s indoor seating but also a balcony you can sit outside at. Loved stopping by here after lunch!
Honestly, this was an unexpected gem of our Boston experience. Delicious baked goods, sandwiches, and soups. The tea sampling was outstanding. Our family loved the atmosphere and the individuals working, especially those interacting with guests in the dining room. Additionally, I was pleased that a historical tourist attraction has such reasonable prices. We loved it!
Loved experiencing the tea our ancestors drank! The tea was tasty! And the oatmeal raisin cookie was delicious! Even more fun, the actors sat at a nearby table playing cards.
Chilly overcast day so we finished with hot teas at Abigail’s after our museum tour. The tea was nice and warm. Five different teas were enough to satisfy each taste in my family of five so we drank from our bottomless cups til we had our fill.
Nice tea house where you can taste the 5 sorts of tea that were thrown overboard during the Boston Tea Party. Prices are reasonable, you can get real cups and you can have scones or other pastries.
