Jolie Tea Company Salem: High Tea & Holiday Gifts MA

Discover the perfect holiday escape at Jolie Tea Company, Salem’s premier European-inspired tea salon located at 316 Derby Street. Founded over 14 years ago by owner Amy Job, this independently owned tea boutique has grown from humble beginnings in Hamilton, with just 60 teas, to an impressive collection of over 300 premium loose-leaf varieties from around the world. This holiday season, Jolie offers an elegant respite from busy downtown shopping with its signature high tea service, custom tea-blending experiences, and thoughtfully curated gift selections perfect for tea enthusiasts on your list.

High Tea Service & Holiday Atmosphere

Step into Jolie’s light-filled salon featuring chic black, white, and green décor that evokes the elegance of French tea salons. Their acclaimed high tea service includes a prix fixe menu of delicate sandwiches, fresh-baked scones, and house-made pastries, accompanied by your choice from their extensive tea menu. With accommodations for dietary preferences, including vegan and gluten-free options, Jolie welcomes both walk-ins and reservations. The intimate setting seats up to 20 guests for private holiday celebrations, making it ideal for festive gatherings with friends and family.

The Tea Bar Experience & Custom Blending

At the heart of Jolie lies their signature Tea Bar, where knowledgeable staff guide customers through an exploration of single-estate teas, signature house blends, and seasonal holiday selections. Purchase premium loose-leaf tea by the ounce to take home, or enjoy a perfectly brewed cup or pot in the café. For truly unique holiday gifts, create custom tea blends in three easy steps—your personalized blend comes in a Jolie Tea Tin labeled with your chosen name and ingredients, offering a thoughtful gift that captures the season’s warmth.
