About Spot of Tea
Spot of Tea was founded in 2017 and quickly became a favorite in the DC farmers market circuit. The tea shop’s newest location – its second brick mortar – pairs a chic, colorfully-tiled service counter with indoor and patio seating options at Georgetown’s Grace Street Collective food hall. The menu features playful bubble tea flavors and fun topping combinations.
Spot of Tea provides “a refreshing take on tea,” infusing energy into each aspect of their business. Vibrant decor welcomes customers into the space, matching eye-popping drinks with bold, contrasting colors. “We put a lot of time and care into choosing our ingredients, brewing our tea, and making sure our work is sustainable,” says co-owner Glenn Baginski. “When you do those things well, I think you can really surprise people! Our goal is to have everyone leave a little bit happier than when they came in.”
Spot of Tea’s signature drinks include Blue Jasmine ( jasmine milk tea colored blue with butterfly pea flower), Hibiscus Mango, Vanilla Taro, and a range of fruit tea and milk tea options. The beverage menu, designed to be delicious on its own, can also be elevated by adding signature toppings, like freshly cooked boba or oat-based salted ube-vanilla cold foam. Spot of Tea sets itself apart by using all natural ingredients and real fruit, eschewing the artificial creamers and flavoring syrups that are still commonplace at most boba shops. By default, all drinks are made with oat milk (when applicable) and only lightly sweetened to highlight the ingredients’ flavors. Both sweetness and milk choices are customizable.
Spot of Tea is operated by co-owners Dillon Chai, Glenn Baginski, and David Cooper. The trio’s first foray into boba took place on campus at Rice University while they were undergrads. They landed in Washington DC in part because the city is Cooper’s hometown. “It was incredibly special, getting to start Spot of Tea in the place where I grew up,” says David. “I’m always flattered that customers from our farmers market days will still come in and tell us how happy they are that we’ve continued to grow.”
