Kaleisia Tea Lounge is a tea house in Tampa, Florida, at 1441 E Fletcher Ave #101, Tampa, FL 33612. It brings together tea, boba, and food in a relaxed setting that customers describe as a welcome change from an ordinary boba stop. With a 4.8-star rating from 921 reviews, the lounge has earned repeat visits from longtime regulars as well as families and people discovering it while in town. Whether you are looking for a drink, a meal, or a place to pause, Kaleisia offers a welcoming option in Tampa.
Tea is central to the experience, with customers mentioning boba, matcha, and distinctive tea-based drinks. A Mango Matcha Latte is a favorite in one family’s visit, while another customer enjoys strawberry boba alongside a meal. Hojicha and other latte choices are also part of the menu, though individual flavor preferences can vary. Reviewers appreciate the staff’s help in choosing drinks and describe the tea as consistently enjoyable. If you are exploring beyond familiar boba flavors, the variety of tea drinks makes Kaleisia a good place to try something different.
The food is another reason guests return. Reviews call out the vegan tofu basil panini, Asian noodles, and vegan K-BBQ Set with seitan; one guest likes the K-BBQ spicy and pairs it with a matcha cupcake and veggie straws. These customer favorites offer options for diners seeking plant-based food, but visitors do not need to identify as vegan to enjoy them. Customers also praise the food’s dependable taste, making it a practical stop for a satisfying bite with tea or boba.
The atmosphere offers different ways to settle in, whether you are catching up with friends, visiting with family, taking a break, or preparing to study. Guests mention an enclosed patio and a room with Japanese-style floor seating, alongside several seating arrangements. The combination of a distinctive setting, friendly service, drinks, and food suits a casual meet-up or a quiet moment between errands. As with any tea lounge, seating and the feel of the space may depend on when you visit, but reviews consistently highlight the staff and the overall experience.
Kaleisia Tea Lounge is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m. Its Tampa location makes it a convenient choice for local residents, students, families, and visitors looking for tea, boba, or vegan-friendly food. Longtime customers describe returning over many years and introducing friends to the lounge, while first-time guests often leave with another drink or menu item to try on a future visit. For a relaxed tea-house stop in Tampa, Kaleisia offers a memorable mix of drinks, food, and welcoming service.

Every single thing from Kaleisia is fantastic, from the food to the tea to the service! I have been coming here for over 10 years and when my kids were small they used to ask me to drive them an hour just to get some tea from here because they loved it so much. Imagine kids wanting to take a 2 hour drive round trip and getting excited to get tea (that should tell you something). I still live an hour away but my friend and I try and come here once a month because we both love it. The service is great every single time. The food is always fresh and delicious and consistent. The tea is great too. I used to be a vegetarian and transitioned to vegan last year and I love that there are so many delicious options to choose from. My favs are the veggie panini and basil panini. I get extra vinaigrette for both of the because it’s so good! The Banh Mi is also really good and I usually bring it for lunch the next day. The spring rolls are flavorful and fresh and a good and refreshing snack. The buttercream cupcake is the best cupcake I have ever had and my friend picked up a half dozen for me last year for my bday because we both love them so much. Highly recommend the cupcakes or just get the set because you get a tea, side salad (also delicious), spring rolls and a cupcake with your main meal and it’s a great value. Fav teas: Jasmine pearl, Yali Pear, Strawberry green tea, Matcha with mango or strawberry and secret garden. I like mine iced and light sweet so you can taste the flavors. You really can’t go wrong with any of them though. If you are looking for some fresh flavorful food, great service, consistency, good vibes and delicious drinks, definitely go to Kaleisia!
I have been coming here on and off for years. Staff is always amazing, food and tea always taste the same (absolutely delicious). I have put so many friends on to this place. I'm not vegan but I always get their vegan food (tofu basil panini and Asian noodles) because it's so good every time. Great pricing too, a tea and food is less than a Big Mac meal and it doesn't shorten your lifespan
Kaleisia Tea Lounge is a great spot to grab yummy vegan food and refreshing boba before you study or relax! I love sitting on the enclosed patio and enjoying the fresh air with my meal. My go-to order is the vegan K-BBQ Set with seitan (make it spicy), matcha cupcake, veggie straws, and a strawberry green iced tea! Sometimes, I will add a mango matcha latte with oat milk and lychee jellies. If you are in need of tea supplies, ask the staff members for assistance - They are so knowledgeable and helped me start my at-home matcha set!
Super cool tea shop! Our family visited Kaleisia while we were in town. Definitely not your average boba tea shop! The staff were great and curated delicious drinks. My nephew loved their Mango Matcha Latte. We’ll be back to try their menu items in the future!!
Had a hojicha latte here… it’s not the first time I had Hojicha, but this one tasted too toasty. I had to ask for more milk. It is a unique environment. They have several seating arrangements, including a room of Japanese style seating on the floor. I do like the prices a lot… they have vegetarian options. My friend had a Thai tea iced latte. She loved it, and we shared a fried tofu panini which was served with store-bought veggie fries. It was good. Price is reasonable. They have lots of T-sets for sale and other items for tea or that go well with tea. It’s a pleasant atmosphere inside although the Plaza itself is not one that provides other attractive shop options. It’s probably one of the only places that serve Hojicha. Recommend.
