Down the rabbit hole: Alice’s Tea Cup brews in Brooklyn
Sunlight floods into Alice’s Tea Cup’s newest location, an intimate café at the corner of Hicks and Middagh streets.
Wooden stools shaped like mushrooms adorn the room. A playful turquoise couch sits below wallpaper covered with keys. A mischievous grin from the Cheshire Cat greets customers.
The popular chain opened its first location in the borough on June 18. The Brooklyn Heights outpost offers the same variety of mouthwatering scones and tea as the other two locales, but its focus is more on coffee — and on an expanded selection of cakes, thanks to a massive basement kitchen.
