changes in the evening

Lots of outlets and a variety of comfortable seating. Live music on lots of evenings - the jazz I've heard is very good, and worth sticking around for. A potential issue - as they start to set up for the evening (at least recently), the volume of the recorded music gets turned up WAY loud. Not sure why they do it, but it definitely encourages customer turnover.

No wifi at Cobble Hill location

Unfortunately, my friends and I have been trying to get work done at the Cobble Hill location for Tea Lounge. We love the atmosphere and the friendly staff, but there's no wifi to be had here. At the very least, it's spotty, so not at all reliable.

Depends on when you go

There are only lots of kids at certain family times. What's great about this place is the crowd is always different and diverse. Music is great--they generally play full albums. The live music is generally a sort of new Jazz, not everyone's cup of tea (but mine) that is the hub of what the New York Times called "the Brooklyn Renaissance." Very comfortable atmosphere, the service is fine--it's just popular so be patient.

lots of kids

agree that there are many children here, but finding a corner might help to get things done. service is also PAINFULLY slow here.

Cafe or kindergarten?

Nice space, but overrun....emphasis on the RUN...with kids. Don't expect to get any work done at all here.
