Our Story
A neighborhood staple since 2010
Mars Tea started as a quiet corner shop on 86th Street with a simple conviction: great food should feel like a welcome. What began as a small tea counter quickly grew into a full bakery and grocery — loved by the same neighbors who watched it happen.
Every croissant is folded by hand. Every tea blend is tasted before it's listed. We source from local dairies, regional flour mills, and tea estates we visit ourselves. This isn't a chain formula — it's a place that knows your name.
Fresh Daily

What We Do Best
Three pillars, one unforgettable experience
From the oven to the cup to your pantry shelf — every category is crafted with the same restless attention to detail.
Artisan Bakery
Laminated pastries, rustic sourdough loaves, and seasonal tarts — all handcrafted in small batches before dawn. Nothing leaves our kitchen unless we'd serve it to family.
Specialty Teas
Loose-leaf single estates, herbal infusions, and house-blended signature mixes. Our tea specialist curates seasonal rotations and can guide you to your perfect cup.
Curated Grocery
Olive oils, artisan chocolates, imported preserves, and local honey — carefully selected staples that complement our bakery and make great gifts.
From Our Kitchen
Seasonal favorites, rotating selections, always something new
Our menu shifts with the seasons and the best ingredients available. Here's what you'll typically find on our counters and shelves — and why regulars keep coming back.
Butter Croissants
72-hour fermented dough, French butter, folded 27 times. Crisp outside, honeycomb inside.
Matcha & Hojicha Collection
Ceremonial-grade Japanese matcha and roasted hojicha, plus our house-blended Brooklyn Sunrise blend.
Sourdough & Flatbreads
Long-fermented hearth loaves and olive oil flatbreads, baked throughout the day so they're never stale.
Gift Boxes & Packs
