Located in the West Village neighborhood, Paquita is a cozy teahouse that offers a perfect escape from the busy city streets.

Owned by the adventurous Mariquit Ingalla, it is a spot loved by tea aficionados and those looking for a unique, cozy, and intimate atmosphere.

Mariquit has shared that the name of the tea shop, Paquita, was inspired by her grandmother's nickname, which adds an endearing and sentimental touch to the teahouse.

As an American-born Taiwanese, I grew up drinking a lot of tea, and I love that Paquita offers an assortment of tea leaves from all around the world. The teahouse is cute and reminds me of similar places I've visited in Taiwan but with a European-vintage touch.

tea and snacks

At Paquita, you can choose from a diverse selection of over 100 varieties of organic loose leaf teas and botanicals from around the world.

While Paquita doesn't serve full meals, they offer affordable tea and snacks, making it the ideal spot for a leisurely afternoon tea or a quick bite.

In addition to tea and snacks, there are also some coffee options and light snacks like pastries available in the front cabinet display.

The tea and snacks are more affordable, with a single teapot priced at $9.

Additionally, you can explore home decor items carefully curated by Mariquit, which are a bit pricier but make for unique and thoughtful gifts!
