The point of this is to share places I've enjoyed to get tea in Atlanta.
I've especially focused on places to get loose-leaf and bubble tea (and less on Southern-style sweet tea / iced tea).
Any places listed in the first few sections, I've visited personally and enjoyed.
As always your mileage may vary, good luck on your tea exploration journey!
