Tea and Food Pairing

What our customers have to say:

“LTMC is 1 of 5 of my favorite tea places ever visited. It’s adorable, good background music, friendly, knowledgeable staff & has a great selection of loose leaf teas. They have both a loose leaf & drink service & the Matcha Palmer on a hot day was just the thing. Highly recommend this place! ”

- Carrie M.

“I've been to a number of tea shops and this place has been consistently wonderful over the years. So much selection, good people... I hope they expand sometime soon. Seems a tad cramped, but not too cramped you can't enjoy a nice tea at the outdoor seating! ”

- Lena H.

“Beautiful atmosphere. I spent every Friday night here w friends for an entire year while in college. The tea is delightful & I've never tried one I didn't like. Locally made scones & cookies are perfect for dipping into tea. Local art almost always adorns the walls. This place feels like Missoula. I always feel at home when I'm here. ”

- Tiffany N.

“Lake Missoula Tea Company is a great tea shop. It has a wide selection of high quality teas to take out or drink in the store along with tea utensils. I love their black truffle walnut tea and their jasmine pearl tea. ”

- Danielle

“I can't stop. I found this shop when I was looking for Butterfly Pea Flowers.I ordered those, and the most DELISH white chrysanthemums for tea. Then, II went back and started ordering some actual tea. And, I haven't stopped. ”

Best store in Montana possibly in all of the United States. I don't know. This is the first Gong Fu tea shop I've ever been to. I came in for a matcha whisk because I donated mine to a museum. Before I left a random customer who was introduced to me as a regular bought me tea. I hugged him which isn't something I normally do. But I was incredibly thankful. Then the man behind the counter gave me a free sample. I went in looking for a simple tool and left with tea and a happy spirit. I am looking forward to making it back as soon as possible! I loved it. I think it will always hold a special place in my blood pumping organ.

I've been going to Lake Missoula Tea Company for years, and recently have had the privilege of putting some of their tea in my store. The quality of the tea is fantastic, and the blends are delightful. I have also attended one of their tasting / learning events and it was great. I highly recommend their downtown store for meeting with friends, family or even just for a nice place to go and have a cup of perfectly brewed tea.

This atmosphere of this shop is so wonderfully cozy and pleasant. The menu has such a nice selection of to-go options and the loose teas to purchase for home brewing are phenomenal and in vast selection. The service was quick and friendly. I came here with my family and we bought many of the different teas to try, as well as some to-go teas. My sister and I really enjoyed their house Chai. It was the perfect amount of spice and tea, like a spicy hug for your soul. I will be recommending this shop to others in the future.
