Carry On Tea And
Sympathy
110 Greenwich Avenue
New York, New York, 10011
(212) 807-8329
Hours: Daily, 11:00 am -10:00 pm
For homesick Brits or anglophiles with a tea habit,
Carry On Tea and Sympathy is a must. This quaint little shop consists
of shelves upon shelves of British products: tea, candy, biscuits, syrups,
jam, soda, and non-edibles like tea cozies, videos, books, and even bath
salts. Close your eyes and imagine you’re in England - everyone
who works there seems to be an import, and most of the customers have
an accent as well. Next door is the popular Tea and Sympathy, the small
but cozy tearoom with the same owner. In true British style, it serves
an impressive roster of tea along with food like beans on toast, shepherd’s
pie, and sherry trifle. You can get many of these items in Carry On’s
take-out line, and you won’t have to wait in the tearoom’s
notoriously long line.
