3''Chatting at the Amber Teahouse'' (''Ame-iro Kouchakan Kandan'') is a YuriGenre {{manga}} by Creator/MiyabiFujieda. It started off as a one-shot in the second volume of ''Eternal Sisters'' but continued to be serialized quarterly in ''Magazine/YuriHime'', concluding after fifteen chapters in 2012. Like Fujieda's other works in the genre, it's completely devoid of {{Gayngst}} and almost completely consists of {{Squee}}-inducing scenes.

5Seriho had a dream of running a successful tea house. Luckily for her, she won a fair amount in the lottery and got enough to start up the Amber Teahouse. Unfortunately for her, she gets no customers... that is until a high school girl named Sarasa shows up.

7Sarasa finds herself enamored with Seriho, and constantly gets teased by her friends about it. She notices that Seriho often is overworked running the tea house by herself, so Sarasa works up the nerve to [[SubordinateExcuse ask Seriho for a job there]], which Seriho gladly accepts.

9Still... the tea house doesn't have enough customers to be profitable, so the question remains on how to make the place successful before all the funds run out.

13
14* AccidentalPublicConfession: [[spoiler:Sarasa and Seriho unknowingly confess their feelings for each other, in front of a huge cadre of their customers.]]
15* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Sarasa is an extremely reliable young woman with long dark hair, especially compared to the scatterbrained (but empathic) and lighter-haired Seriho.

17%% * BunnyEarsLawyer: is very good at construction and carpentry but she has fairly unorthodox methods.
18* ContinuityCameo: In the SpinOff manga ''Marble Colour'', several characters from Fujieda's other works have shown up as customers in the cafe, including Letty and Tsumugi from ''Manga/TheMikosWordsAndTheWitchesIncantations'' as well as Iono and Eto from ''Manga/IonoTheFanatics''.
19%% * ChainsawGood: Hinoka's aforementioned unorthodox methods.
20%% * ClassTrip: Haru, Hinoka and Sarasa take one in Chapters 4 and 5.
21* DeclarationOfProtection: Sarasa to Seriho. Sarasa constantly worries when they're separated by a ClassTrip, and even [[spoiler: changes her career path in order to help out more with the teahouse]].
22%% * EveryoneCanSeeIt: There are a lot of comments by characters on how Sarasa and Seriho should be together.
23%% * FourGirlEnsemble
24%% * GeniusDitz: Seriho as she's a master of making and serving tea but fairly bad when it comes to business or technology.

36* UnequalPairing: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]. Even though Seriho is Sarasa's boss, they work more as a team than as a boss and subordinate. The age difference doesn't matter much, either, given that Seriho so often [[OlderThanTheyLook seems younger than Sarasa]].
37* UnsoundEffect: occurs frequently, with examples such as "cling" or "blush"
38* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The author [[IRegretNothing has no regrets about this story]], except for this trope. So, he's going to do something about it, with ''Chatting over Tea at the Amber Teahouse: Golden & Silver Tips''.
