From the brink of extinction, tearooms are making a comeback in Brisbane as a new generation discovers the advantages of leaf and pot over bag and cup.

Accordingly the gracious nuances of partaking in high tea have had a resurgence in the number of vintage and modern venues in which to do so around town, as have teashops selling all the tea-making paraphernalia.
