……….like proud parents when we have a new store to add to the family!
Ladies and gentlemen please say hello to Southland, born Sunday 23rd May 2010.
You will notice from some of the pictures that this store is similar in some ways to the rest of the family, however it also has its own unique character which we just love.
Check out the “Green tree” which reaches up to the ceiling and brings a surreal calm to the store whilst holding glitter mugs, tea and shiny pots.
We have a hugely popular new building block “Jenga” inspired tea house for tasting and talking tea. Check out the “how do you store” and “ how do you brew” wall, plus staff favourites notice board.
The slick brick tea pot wall needs no introduction but we boosted it anyway with some dramatic theatre lights and the store front reflects autumn inside with digital tea leaves being thrown across it.
Like our taste in tea, we love the old and new alike, check it out and let us know what you think of our new arrival.

August 9, 2010 at 3:00 amT2 at Southland has become my favourite shop. I love to pop in when I am in the area and try the different teas. The staff are wonderful and always helpful with suggestions. My daughters have all given up coffee and love drinking tea now… One is into the green teas and the other loves the chai with vanilla soy. It has beome her bedtime ritual…hehe. As for me, well, I just them all!
