Tea Zone Bakery & Cafe

This is going to be my secret study cafe from now on. If you see me, pretend you don't.Gentle music and the trickle of traffic created a peaceful and relaxing environment. I especially enjoyed the illusion of privacy offered by the dividing screens at the traditional seating area. I am apt to take off my shoes in public regardless of the occassion, but the sunken tables allowed me to unleash the dawgs in a more socially acceptable manner.Note that Tea Zone no longer offers as wide a variety of savory foods. In fact, they only serve ramen. But their bakery section is still robust! I'm not honestly the biggest fan of most fruit cakes but I had an uncontrollable craving. As far as store-bought fruit cakes go, it was not bad. As always, I wish the cake part had more depth of flavor than just ~vanilla~, but as a whole, the cake was quite soft and generously topped with an assortment of fruit!The servers were very sweet (haha) and offered to make my iced matcha latte unsweetened but I was like, no, I need the high. Because I sure as hell am not high on life. Not a direct quote

I was so happy to finally be able to visit Tea Zone after years of driving past! The interior is really cute with some nice seating areas. My first visit was right after they had opened from the weekend so they didn't have a ton ready to sell yet but I was still able to try a few things. My second visit I got more items to try and a bubble tea. I wasn't super impressed with the bubble tea. The boba themselves were a bit tough. I would love to return again though to try even more of their offerings!

Was craving some bingsoo (Korean shaved ice) and luckily was able to find some at Tea Zone Bakery! They have regular fruit bingsoo and snowflake ice bingsoo on the weekend! It was refreshing with a variety of fruits, sweet red bean, little rice cakes, and vanilla ice cream with sprinkles. They also have a plethora of freshly baked Korean style cakes and breads ranging from soboru (my personal favorite ) to red bean buns and fried donuts. Would love to see if they can do a red bean filled soboru bun! I was surprised by how good the fried donut was - super soft and filled with sweet red bean inside. If you're a chestnut lover, I also recommend the chestnut soboru bun. It had chunks of chestnuts inside and was not too sweet. If you're a savory person or need a meal, they also serve ramen There are plenty of seats inside and the interior has such a classic, homey feel to it. They even have traditional Korean style seating! The workers are also very sweet and friendly. Definitely a place I would go back whenever the sweets craving hits!

A cozy little tea and treats cafe. They carry many of the same pastries as Belles Bread, but with a much calmer atmosphere. This would be a perfect spot to sit and catch up with friends. Please note that they do not serve food (meals). It looks like they used to, from some of the older Yelp reviews. We were hoping to get some lunch, but they are now serving tea drinks and baked goods only. The mango mousse cake was yummy.

Amazing place perfect ambiance super nice service delicious tea and coffee and bingsu and great prices. Anyone who leaves a negative review needs psychological help and I mean that

My dad and I discovered this place on a whim and loved it! It's a bit hidden and unassuming from the outside but larger than it appears. Immediately, we were greeted from the 2 friendly employees in the front. The decor is an almost chaotic hodgepodge, but in a familiar, home-y way. I love how much personality shines through the decor. There are green and plants everywhere along the window, Korean and western signs, mellow jazz music, and casual cafe seating in addition to an entire area of traditional Korean seating. There are a menu of baked items, a case of items at the register, and an assortment of Korean, Japanese, and French pastries to pick up yourself and bring to the register. There's also a wide variety of drink options, from coffee to hot tea to bubble tea. I didn't love the bubble tea (no adjustable sugar or ice, so it's veryy sweet) but my dad was very impressed by the coffee. I'd love to try a hot tea next time I visit.Overall, I highly recommend this hidden gem! Super cozy spot for studying, a casual coffee date, or just picking up some yummy pastries.

We tried multiple pastries and green tea bubble tea and more. Everything tasted great was fresh! The pastries with cream cheese were great (not too sweet, not too bland. The tea was great too. It had rich matcha and bobas too. We enjoyed everything we tried and customer service was super friendly too!

The fruit cake from Tea Zone Bakery and Cafe is absolutely phenomenal! It's been our go-to for office celebrations, and it never fails to impress. I've also brought it to family gatherings, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. Everyone loves it every time!

The vibes are amazing. I used to come there at least once a day to every couple days during my lunch break at Microcenter. The food there is top notch, I loved their spicy ramen and Oreo cake, and the service, chefs kiss, they were super polite and patient, and I remember the first time I went there the lady at the counter gave a super helpful suggestion so I wouldn't spend my lunch running back and forth, easily my favorite sit down place at Olentangy Square

Very cute shop run by a cute korean family! I hear customers speaking korean occasionally with them. I like their inside table things a lot, its like the kind where the chairs are in the floor? The pastries are cute and good too. Its pretty quiet!
