Step into a world of calm, comfort, and character at The Tea Junction, the Isle of Man’s first true tea shop, nestled in the heart of Douglas. With its beautiful interior, soft lighting, and gentle atmosphere, The Tea Junction offers a serene escape from the bustling town centre — the ideal spot for a peaceful brunch, a catch-up over tea, or an indulgent afternoon treat.
At the core of The Tea Junction’s experience is its exceptional tea selection. With over 20 loose leaf varieties to choose from — including classic black teas, light green teas, herbal infusions, rooibos, and seasonal blends — every cup is thoughtfully prepared and served with care. Most of the teas are sourced from Pekoe Tea, a family-run Edinburgh-based company that works directly with small, ethical growers around the world. Whether you’re sipping on Assam Gold Rush, Jasmine Pearls, or a peppermint infusion, each blend is selected for flavour, quality, and freshness.
In 2024, The Tea Junction entered a new chapter as it was taken over by Hayden, who has continued to build on its long-standing reputation while bringing new energy and ideas to the beloved café. Under Hayden’s guidance, the team has refreshed the menu, enhanced the experience, and maintained the same warm, community-focused approach that regulars have always loved.
Their all-day menu makes The Tea Junction a go-to destination from morning through late afternoon. Start your day with hearty breakfasts like the Butcher’s Breakfast, bacon or sausage brioche rolls, crumpets, or porridge with seasonal toppings. At lunch, the offerings expand to include homemade soups, filled bagels, toasties, quiches, jacket potatoes, salads, and paninis, all made using high-quality ingredients and served with flair.
The homemade cake counter remains a firm favourite — always well-stocked with brownies, traybakes, macarons, and other indulgent treats, all made fresh in-house. For a more elevated visit, the café’s beautifully presented afternoon teas and cream teas offer a timeless experience, complete with scones, finger sandwiches, mini cakes, and a teapot of your choice.
Drinks-wise, you’ll also find barista-made coffee, iced lattes, matcha and turmeric blends, milkshakes, and the signature TJ Special Hot Chocolate, making it a welcoming stop for every kind of craving.
Dine-in or takeaway is available, and while walk-ins are welcome, booking is recommended — especially for afternoon teas or weekend visits.
Whether you’re a tea lover or simply after a peaceful bite in a refined setting, The Tea Junction continues to be one of Douglas’s most cherished gems — now with a fresh chapter led by Hayden, and the same heart at its core.
