As of this post, more strikes are forecast. We urge anyone hoping to get their orders in before Xmas to come to the stall if they can, or accept that it may turn up after Xmas. If your order is a gift for someone, you can still place one and leave a note at checkout for stall collection. It will then be ready for you to collect at your leisure.

Sorry for any inconvenience,

Inspired by the arrival of Break's GoGoDiscover T.rex, and Dippy on tour at Norwich Cathedral, this summer. We at Birchley's have joined in and created our own exclusive dinosaur tea 'Tea-REX'! (Well, it wasn't going to be called anything else. We love tea puns here!)

Our cleaver girl 'Rexy' has spared no expense in making a delicious herbal, lemongrass, rosehip and ginger blend with candy dinosaurs. Rexy was so preoccupied with whether or not she could, she didn't stop to think if she should, but life finds a way and she didn't disappoint. So, hold onto your butts as the warming ginger and sweet citrusy flavours calms you down from your run in with Rexy.​

For a limited time you can get your hands on this herbal blend only in store from the 12th July - 22nd August. Pop on in to sample Rexy's creation.

You can find more information on the food trail here:

Monday 10-4pm, Tuesday - Saturday 9-4:30pm. We are geared up and ready to go for Christmas so come get your tea, or order it online. ]]><![CDATA[Lockdown 2 Opening Times]]>Sun, 01 Nov 2020 18:22:24 GMThttps://www.birchleystea.co.uk/updates/lockdown-2-opening-timesWe are here again! But we are prepared. Birchley's is Covid secure. As of Thursday 5th November, we will be operating at reduced opening hours. These will be 10am - 2pm Monday - Saturday. If you go out for your one food shop in Norwich Market, you can by tea from us still. Or if you live out of the way, order online.

Our online shop is still operating as normal. Orders will be posted on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. As we found during the first lockdown, the postal service took longer to deliver some packages, up to two weeks on one occasion. Please give your orders a bit of extra time to get to you if this appears to be the case. Otherwise, get in touch with us via email, Google or Facebook. 

Christmas items will be added to the website as and when they are delivered to us. Special Xmas teas will appear mid November instore and online. We currently still have some Halloween and Pumpkin Pie tea available. If you would like a large order of gifts put together for Christmas please allow extra wiggle room for it to be assembled and posted. It takes us a little time to make each gift box from scratch. 

As before, stay safe, and don't worry. We have tea for days!
