I visited Chicha San Chen and it felt more like a tea workshop than a typical bubble tea shop. From…read moremy visit, there were two people working the counter, carefully making drinks and taking orders. You can see them measuring ingredients on scales and following a very deliberate process, so it is not a quick in and out kind of place. I ordered the lemon wonderland and the honey osmanthus oolong tea. Both were really enjoyable. The lemon wonderland tasted fresh and balanced, not overly sweet, with a clean citrus brightness. The honey osmanthus oolong was more subtle, lightly floral with a smooth tea base that came through clearly. You can tell the tea itself is the focus here, not just the toppings or sugar. Service felt focused and methodical rather than chatty, which fits the style. Drinks took a bit longer than average, but it made sense once you see the care going into each cup.

Tried the Mochi roasted milk tea half sweet, even at half sweet, it was still very sweet, probably due to the mochi.

Didn't really taste the roasted tea - as the mochi and sweetness was very dominate. Overall, average experience and taste for bubble tea.

There are some huge stuffed bears (I think they're the Costco variety) by the entrance. Makes for some photos if one is into that. Seating area is decently large, with several small tables. Staff are friendly. The bubble tea here is honestly on the pricier side. I tried their panda pearl cheesecake bubble tea and it was a bit on the salty side. I didn't find it to be anything special, which was honestly a bit disappointing. Not sure if I'd be back. There are a few other places for drinks (including bubble tea) in the immediate vicinity.

Macao Imperial Tea had just opened up on Edmonds St.and I was itching to try it, so I brought my…read moredaughter with me to go check it out. Upon entering the shop you are met with two gigantic teddy bears sitting on chairs. They seem to like their teddy bears in this shop because two of the drinks on their menu are served in reusable glass bottles with lids that are shaped like teddy bear ears. One of these drinks is called "For Me" and the other drink is called "For You". My daughter decided to try the "For Me" while I chose the Black Sugar Taho Milk Tea for myself. For Me: It turned out to be a coffee drink. Think of it as a cold, sweet latte. My girl loved it and so did her daddy when he came home. Since the "For Me" drink comes in one of those reusable glass teddy bear bottles, I inquired about whether we could come back sometime and reuse that same bottle. The girl I asked wasn't sure so she consulted with another employee. She then reported back to me that we could reuse the bottle; the drink would cost the same. There would be no discount for bringing in a reusable container. That's fine with me. I'm just happy to come to a shop that allows reusable containers. I'm so tired of single use plastic. Black Sugar Taho Milk Tea: I'm no expert on Taho or Filipino foods in general. Taho is something I've only ever had at one other shop. Based on my limited experience with Taho, I have to say I really couldn't taste any Taho in this drink. It was a flavorful drink and we enjoyed every last drop. I'd have no troubles ordering it again. I just don't think the word "Taho" should be in the name as I really couldn't detect any Taho in it. It just tasted like a Black Sugar Milk Tea to me.  Service: Very good. Friendly and helpful. Parking: Parking on Edmonds St. directly in front of the shop is limited; however, if you just take a short walk around the corner there's plenty of free parking on the side street. (Linden Ave.) Location: In a great neighbourhood. Buy-Low Foods supermarket is across the street, Save-On Foods is only about a couple of blocks away around the corner, Tommy Douglas Library is also around the corner,Edmonds Community Centre is closeby on the same street, lots of other shops and restaurants nearby. It's a wonderful addition to the neighbourhood.

It was freshly made, and it only served at 3-7 PM daily. It was unlike the other drinks. The sweetness level has been fixed. Pearls were super fresh and warm. Pearls were perfectly cooked and very smooth. We also tried one of their signature drinks - Yifang Fruit Tea 一芳水果茶. You can specify the temperature (hot/cold/ice content) and sweetness level (30/50/70/100%) for your drinks. It served in fresh fruit (apple, oranges and passion fruit) in the fruit tea, unlike the other places. I was thrilled to find this change from the norm. They were pretty thoughtful, they even gave you a fork to eat the fruits too. Yi Fang has various locations. This one is located in Burquitlam neighbourhood. Food: 4/5 Should Try!

Nothing wrong with that though. It's a clean, spacious shop with ample seating and big windows allowing lots of natural light to come in. I dropped by here to order a Roasted Milk Tea cuz on the 1st and last day of each month, Sun Tea members can order a large sized Milk Tea for just $3.99. They have Regular Milk Tea and Roasted Milk Tea. We've tried both versions and they're both good but we like the Roasted Milk Tea best. I ordered it with less ice and 50% sweetness. Quality of drinks at Sun Tea never seems to disappoint no matter which location we go to. This one was no exception to that rule. Service was a bit slow on this visit. I think they had a lot of online orders to prepare as I didn't see that many people in the shop. Guess it's a popular location. They also have some yummy looking desserts in their shop. Thai Milk Tea Cake Box sounded very tempting. I might try that next time. I skipped it this time as I had come here by foot and had a substantial walk ahead of me when I left the shop so didn't care to be carrying a cake for that long walk.
