Tea House

That 07:00 chai latte craving is exactly what Tea House covers

In T1 after security at BJX, Tea House runs daily from 07:00 to 19:00 and keeps it simple: tea drinks, a few coffee options, and light snacks. It sits airside in the main departures area, so you’re fine grabbing something even if boarding starts in 20 minutes.

Prices sit firmly in the $ tier by airport standards, with most drinks landing well under what you’d pay at a big-chain coffee bar in Mexico City or GDL. If you just need a hot drink and maybe a pastry before a low-cost carrier flight, this place doesn’t punish your wallet.

The signature move here is the chai latte. Reviewers call it out more than any other drink, and it’s the one option that shows up consistently in photos and comments. If you only have time for one thing before a 1-hour hop to Mexico City or Monterrey, order the chai and go.

The menu leans tea-first: black, green, herbal blends, plus milk teas and a few cold options, all served to go for the T1 gates. You’ll also usually find small baked items at the counter, enough to hold you through a 90‑minute regional leg but not a full meal. Think “snack plus drink,” not lunch.

Seating around Tea House depends on how crowded T1 gets around the 08:00–10:00 bank of departures. There are some nearby seats, but many people just carry drinks to their gate, especially for flights leaving from the mid‑teens gates.

Tip: BJX security can be quick, so if you clear before 07:00, wait a few minutes airside and hit Tea House right when it opens at 07:00 for a fresh chai latte before boarding.
