In Their Words
Loved by London.
The closest thing to a Mong Kok cha chaan teng I've found in London. The silk-stocking pull is the real thing — smooth, layered, and properly strong.

I grew up on this tea in Hong Kong. One sip at Silk Steep and I was back in my grandmother's kitchen. Extraordinary.

Finally a milk tea that respects the craft. The pineapple bun with cold butter is a religious experience.

Beautifully dark room, beautifully dark tea. It's the kind of place you arrive at five and leave at midnight.

I order the iced silk weekly. The cream layer, the depth of the Ceylon — nothing else in the city compares.

Service is precise, atmosphere is cinematic, tea is religion. Silk Steep is a destination.
