The Story

The Blue Turtle Tea & Spice Co. was established in November 2009 at the prominent corner of State & College in Uptown Westerville. After a two-year tenure, Elaine, renowned as ‘the tea goddess’, assumed ownership to ensure continuous access to sought-after products she and others enjoyed.

After twelve successful years, Elaine decided to transition ownership to someone with an equal profound passion and respect for tea. The search concluded when Alexandria and Elaine connected at a holiday party in the winter of 2023. By summer of 2024, with Alexandria at the helm, ‘the tea goddess’ could confidently entrust Uptown on Main featuring Blue Turtle Tea & Spice Co., to capable hands.

Located at 64 E. Main Street, just 500 feet east of State Street, our shop maintains hours of operation from Wednesday through Friday, 1PM-7PM, Saturdays from 11AM-5PM, and during Uptown Events.
