Spice & Tea Merchants

An outstanding selection of unique teas and huge variety of spices (pictured). Being a first time shopper there, the help offered was appreciated. The staff member also started a loyalty card for me, and gave a card with recommended steeping times.

Friendly customer service, and reasonable prices. AMAZING TEA!

Love the variety of spices, teas, and other things I didn't know I needed. Originally found the store up in Marquette but was excited to find one in GR too! Same quality products.

Many amazing combinations! The cranberry maple rub is my favorite for pork tenderloin, the hunters game blend is perfect for venison, and the Moroccan is fantastic for chicken!

Great place, with a large selection of spices, teas, and more. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Definitely worth checking out!

Awesome place for the perfect loose leaf tea or spices. Beth is super nice and helpful.

Delightful experience! Knowledgeable and kind merchant ensured I loved my choices!

Very helpful and nice, knew what she was talking about.

Tasty loose leaf tea! I really liked the coconut oolong 🌿 Expensive for loose leaf (if you know where to shop) and a number of these have both "natural"and artificial flavoring... but it's fun to smell all their selection and splurge a bit ☺

First time I went, the guy who was there sold me the full bag( the entire once), he was really nice.
I went yesterday and a lady was there and she was talking and talking I putted my tea inside the bag I didn’t check because I was in rush and today I just checked and she didn’t even sold me the half of the product, the tea is great but please don’t do this to the people. I can’t even go myself to ask for a refund because I am not from Grand Rapids.

Tea and spice shop inside the Downtown Market building. I was looking for a pound of Tellicherry peppercorns for my peppermills at home. $33 dollars per pound, no thank you! This whole "shop local" thing don't work unless your prices are competitive. Went home and ordered my pound of pepper for $9 off Amazon. To end on a positive note I'll say that while I'm not a tea drinker, it looks like they do have a large selection of teas on their shelves.

Went to buy some tea. It was marked with a particular price. The clerk tried to charge me $4.00 more for the package. I explained to her she was required to sell it for the price marked. She said their labels printed wrong and it was actually the higher price. I told her again she was required to sell it for the price marked. She said there was nothing she could do and couldn't change the register. I went elsewhere.

Service there (at least the person working when I was there) stares you down and follows you, not a good experience to have someone breath down your neck while trying to find some tea. :(

The seasonings are not good at all
