It is with heavy hearts that we share that after 11 years, Estate Tea Co has closed its doors for the final time.
After a long period of rising costs and unpredictable trading conditions, we have made the incredibly difficult decision to close permanently.
Small businesses all over the country are feeling the pressure and despite us fighting as hard as we could, it became impossible to continue. We want to be honest about that to shine a light on how difficult the climate has become for independent businesses like ours.
This isn’t the end we ever imagined. Estate Tea Co has always been more than a shop, café, or brand - it’s been a home for conversations, friendships, creativity, and countless cups of tea shared between people who made this place special. For a lot of us, it’s also been our entire working lives.
To our staff:
Thank you. You poured your energy, your care, and your hearts into this business every single day. Estate Tea Co was what it was because of you. We are endlessly grateful for your loyalty, your hard work, and for the way you treated every customer as part of our family.
To our customers and community:
Your support has meant everything to us. Whether you visited once, came in daily, bought online, or just championed us from afar…you helped build something special with us.
Thank you for being a part of our story.
With all our love,
Estate Tea Co
