Us Tablespoons to Milliliters

A US tablespoon is 3 teaspoons, about 14.79 milliliters, a common cooking measure in the US. A milliliter is one thousandth of a liter, equal to one cubic centimeter, used for medicine doses and small liquid measures. 1 tbsp equals ≈14.7868 mL, so converting between them is a matter of multiplying by that fixed factor — type any value into the converter below and both sides update instantly as you type.

Both units belong to volume, measured here against volume's base unit (L) — every other volume unit on this site converts through that same reference point, which is why the table below can also be read as a quick cross-check against nearby values.
