Where Old Rails Meet New Mornings
Our Story: Where Old Rails Meet New Mornings
Iron Leaf Tea Co. is more than just a tea shop—it’s a tribute to Johnson City’s rich railroad heritage and a place for today’s community to enjoy. Our name is inspired by the iron rails that have shaped our city’s story for generations, bringing people together and fueling new beginnings with every passing train.
Located just steps from the historic tracks on West Walnut Street, Iron Leaf Tea Co. blends the warmth of Southern tradition with the spirit of innovation. We believe in honoring the past while creating space for new connections, fresh ideas, and, of course, exceptional tea.
Rooted in History, Crafted for Today
Our founder started Iron Leaf Tea Co. with a simple vision: to serve high-quality tea in a welcoming space that feels like home. Every blend is thoughtfully sourced and brewed with care, using precise methods to ensure every cup is as memorable as the last. From classic black and green teas to our signature seasonal blends and southern sweet tea, our menu is designed to offer something for everyone—whether you’re a lifelong tea enthusiast or just beginning your journey.
A Community Hub for Johnson City
We’re proud to be a part of Johnson City’s ongoing story. Iron Leaf Tea Co. is a place where ETSU students can find a quick cup to help study, where neighbors can catch up over a hot cup, and where visitors can experience a taste of local tradition. Our shop is intentionally small and personal, making every guest feel like a regular from their very first visit.
Tradition Meets Tomorrow
At Iron Leaf, we celebrate the legacy of the rails while embracing the possibilities of each new morning. Our commitment to quality, consistency, and connection is at the heart of everything we do. We invite you to slow down, savor the moment, and become a part of our growing community—one cup at a time.
