01 / The story of this place
Make time for these
Boston Tea Room is a large, family-run shop in Ferndale, with about 12,000 square feet of teas, crystals, tarot decks and books, plus psychic readings. Pride Source profiled it in January 2024 as a cozy, queer hotspot. The shop emphasizes a safe, welcoming space for people of all orientations, and its after-hours events have featured local drag performers. It's a queer-friendly family business rather than an LGBTQ-owned one.
