I’ve lived in Geneva for over 10 years and had no idea that this gem was here. It’s a small shop and despite the name, it has more tea selection than coffee selection. If you are a tea person, you will be in absolute heaven. That’s not a knock on the coffee selection. There are more than a dozen varieties of coffee in both regular and decaf. But that doesn’t matter because once you try their house blend, you won’t want anything else! The service is great. Every time I’ve been in the store, I am dealing with the owner. She has been a coffee proprietor for over 35 years and knows the business. She provides a level of service that gives that feeling of yesteryear that is long gone. Now the best part. The prices are unbelievable. We’re dealing with gourmet coffee at grocery store prices. $ 10 a pound for superb coffee. Their location is in the Berry shops, not completely hidden but you need to know it is there or you might miss it. Great coffee, great tea selection, great service and great prices. Don’t miss this one.

I popped in here by chance one summer afternoon and found that the owner was very helpful with the selection of tea available. I don’t drink tea but was looking for a gift for a friend that LOVES tea. She directed me to two different blends and my friend loved both. They were super reasonable prices and loads of selection. I’ll definitely be back for future gift-considerations. Thanks so much for your help!

If you’re a fan of tea(loose or bagged), you should definitely take a trip to the Coffee Drop Shop. Don’t let the name fool you, however, as this isn’t really much of a coffee shop. Actually, I was disappointed in the coffee selection and also in the fact that all of the coffee seems to be pre-ground. Tons of tea, however, and a lot of gadgets such as tea pots, infusers, mugs, thermoses, etc.

I was walking through downtown Geneva one day and dropped into this little shop. I’m not a coffee drinker and was pleasantly surprised to find their awesome selection of loose teas and all the goodies that go with it. They had teas like, blueberry, raspberry, peach, cake flavours… yum The woman who runs the shop is super duper nice and as I was leaving she said«drop by anytime» she also gave me a few great tips on brewing tea and was very honest about her recommendations. I will be back and you should drop in too for great tea and the lovely smells brewing from this local shop!!!

Great fresh roasted coffee and loose tea selection. We’ve been buying loose tea and fresh roasted coffee beans here for years. Judy is the best!

Very very interesting shop. TONS of selection on teas and coffee. A lot of kettles and everything else you need to make tea or coffee. Very polite owners and very helpful. They have all teas in sample packs which are a buck and you can try all sorts of different varieties.

Definitely a hidden gem. They have a great selection of loose leaf teas and gear for every possible way to prepare tea and coffee. Try one of their iced tea drinks … It’s $ 1. The most happiness you can get for a dollar.

This was one of my favorite stores in Geneva. They have TONS of different coffees, loose leaf teas, and all the accessories. The place smells divine. It is located in the Berry House shops building. They prices are very reasonable, and the selection is amazing. If you are a caffeine lover, this is your place.

I’m a huge loose tea fan and this is THE place for quality loose tea. Unlike some of the chain stores, the prices are very reasonable and the owner is so very helpful and friendly! I don’t usually frequent here as much during the summer, but during the winter months I’m in here to stock up at least once a week. As the previous poster mentioned, they have a cute selection of cups and hot drink gadgets. A good thing to remember for a fun gift for that hard to buy for friend!

Cute shop in the collection of unique stores that make up the Berry House shops. To enter it directly, go around the corner and you will see its lit up open sign contained within a coffee cup. To me, this was much more of a tea shop than coffee. There were so many cute tea gadgets. The tea cozies were talking to me but I settled on a new tea filter, bag holder as well as some whole leaf and bagged tea. In addition, there were all kinds of cute tea pots and cups. There was coffee available by the pound and two pots of drip coffee on burners in the back but this was not a coffee shop. The woman who worked here was extremely friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for tea paraphernalia, this is a great place. I am an equal opportunity self caffeinator so I liked it fine. But if you are looking for a great coffee, I would cruise on.
