Our Story

A little shop with a big heart

Tucked away in the heart of Hermanus, Mr. Write Tea & Gift Shop is where mismatched teacups meet hand-picked loose-leaf blends, and every shelf has a surprise waiting. We're not your average tea shop — we're part coastal hideaway, part curiosity cabinet, and 100% feel-good.

Whether you're popping in for a perfect cuppa after a cliff-path walk, hunting for a one-of-a-kind gift, or settling in for an afternoon of live music and cake — you're home. Pull up a chair. The kettle's on.
