The Tea Cup was one of Santa Cruz’s most iconic old-school restaurants—especially for locals who remember pre‑1989 downtown.
What it was - A long-running Chinese restaurant with a cocktail lounge
Located in downtown Santa Cruz, most famously in the Flatiron building on Pacific Avenue.
Known for classic American‑Chinese dishes and a lively upstairs bar scene
Timeline: Founded: 1946
Golden years: 1950s–1980s (major downtown staple)
Closed: 1989 after the Loma Prieta earthquake severely damaged the building.
This fitted t-shirt delivers a soft feel with a clean, modern look. Made from a cotton-poly blend, it’s lightweight, breathable, and built to hold its shape and color over time. Whether worn on its own or layered, it’s an easy everyday staple.

· Lightweight fabric: 4.3 oz./yd.² (146 g/m²)
· Regular fit with a modern silhouette
· Crew neck with reinforced shoulder-to-shoulder binding
· Tear-away label for added comfort
· Blank product sourced from the US
