I always like to check out a new city's boba scene when traveling to a new place. I was kind of worried when I checked Yelp and didn't see a boba place with a lot of high reviews. However, after a thoughtful review of the my choices, I had picked 101 boba which ended up being a solid choice that I went twice! Their matcha is really good and has a floral taste to it which I really love. I also tried their 4 season tea with ultimate chew. The tea here is really good! read more

A Taste of Taiwan, Just Like I Remember This place took me straight back to the bubble tea stands of my childhood in Taiwan -- before bubble tea became the global sensation it is today. The flavors, the texture, even the vibe reminded me of those humble street vendors who knew how to make a perfect cup without all the frills. Now, full disclosure: I'm a Coffeemate kind of girl. If you're a fresh milk purist, this review might not be for you. But for those of us who grew up on the classic, creamy blends -- this spot nails it. No fancy gimmicks, no over-the-top toppings. Just good, honest bubble tea the way it used to be. I'm genuinely happy I found a place that honors the original style. It's rare these days, and it means a lot to taste something that feels like home. read more

101 Boba. What a cute name! I actually didn't know there were so many 101 Boba locations. This one was the closest to my hotel, so we decided to come here. To our surprise, they had 20% off fall drinks as long as you got the mini boba. That was fine with us--large drink with "Four Seasons Milk Tea," please! The drink was actually pretty good, and they give you a lot of mini bobas. It felt like I was sipping on it for days. You can adjust the ice and sugar levels like at any other place, which was cool. We went back on the day we left Canada to get the oolong and the green tea. The drinks were not bad; they weren't phenomenal, but I can't argue with their 20% pricing. Fast service both times, but then again, we were the only ones there. Small place, definitely for not a crowd to hang. Cash or card is okay. Parking can be tough in the busy, small lot. But I found that if you go really early or really late, there's usually a spot available in the area. read more

Tried the Black Tea Latte and the Four Seasons Milk Tea. Both were quite delicious! Found their pearls a little bland, but the milk teas were flavourful! Was a little sad that the Black Tea Latte was already shaken up when they gave me the drink (I wanted to see the separation!) - but all good! Still yummy! read more

It's been a while since I've been back to Vancouver so of course I wanted to hit up a bubbletea place on my first night here! After a dinner of sushi, we looked for a close but well rated bubbletea place that we don't have back home. From what it seemed wushiland is fairly new but got decent reviews and was fairly close to where we had dinner. First impressions: it was easy to find and brightly lit. The place was decently filled with customers enjoying drinks and chats. All good signs in my eyes. The menu had variety but not overwhelmingly so. They had a summer promo where a select number of drinks were 2 for $ 9 so my sister and l went with 2 black tea lattes with grass jelly. The drinks were nice not too sweet as we got 30% sugar. At first I thought it wasn't sweet enough but once I got a taste of the grass jelly I got all the sugar needed. Overall the drink was okay but for that price we couldn't go wrong. I do wish the tea flavour was a bit stronger but ido proper a stronger tea favour in general. The grass jelly was quite sweet. We also saw that they had egg waffles so we grabbed one of those too. Unfortunately it wasn't what we expected.it had more of a mocha texture which l liked but my sister wasn't a fan.it was a little too sweet and a little more eggy than what we wanted. The location itself was brightly lit and very spacious. It's definitely a good spot for hanging out or studying. Though the drink was okay, I think there's other better places for bubbletea in Vancouver. I would come back to try other drinks though only if I was close by. read more

I enjoyed the watermelon fruit tea with boba but no sugar after consulting with the server, hubby got the plum green tea with boba and 30% sugar. We were so happy with our drinks, we came back for seconds on another day! Easily accessible and easy to find. Even though the paper straws do get somewhat mushy, it's one thing environmentally helpful! read more

Came here on a friend's recommendation for boba in Richmond, and was pretty impressed! They had a special going on when I came, 2 drinks for I forget how much CAD (~$8.50 USD). I decided to get the four season tea with mango sorbetto, less ice, less sugar, and I really liked it. The tea had a good flavor without being bitter, and they also provided a generous amount of boba and mango sorbetto. Considering that in the US, a singular cup of boba can cost you $8.50, I was really impressed with the value here. Service was pretty friendly and quick. Only thing I wasn't a fan of was that they provide paper straws that can get kind of mushy. read more

Tucked away in Union Square Shopping Centre is 101 Boba! We got 2 drinks and their regular bubble waffle! The blueberry banana smoothie came with some kind of pudding at the bottom which made it super refreshing during a hot day. The black tea latte was good, we especially liked the boba, they were made perfectly. We loved the bubble waffle the most! It was very crispy and had just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely recommend to check 101 Boba out if you're in the area! We find their drinks tend to be on the sweeter side. We got less ice and sugar but still found the drink to be too sweet. So we recommend scaling lower in sugar level if you're not too fond of sugary drinks! read more

Takeout only, plenty of parking in the plaza. Bright and clean inside the store, and the staff were friendly. My order: -Milk Tea -Pearl Black Tea Latte I like the tea flavour and powdered milk tea which is how authentic Taiwanese bubble tea is made. I prefer the regular sized pearls (they ran out, so I got the mini pearls). Still good, but I prefer the regular sized ones, so I can actually chew them instead of inhaling them. Definitely recommend getting half sweet for all the drinks. Drinks come in 2 sizes. read more

I think this is Wushiland Bubble Tea rebranded as 101 Boba. I decided to give the boba black tea latte a try. As I did come here quite early, we had to wait 15 minutes for them to finish making the boba. Despite it being freshly made, it didn't have the chewiness that I was looking for. The bubble tea itself was okay and not too sweet which I appreciated (at my typical 30% sugar). There was also a problem with their sealing machine so my drink ended up being quick leaky. They did reset it when I complained so that was appreciated! read more

There are a lot of bubble tea places in Richmond and this place stood out to me and my girlfriend so we decided to try it out because we love our bubble tea! First impression of this place was the interior was super clean and nice, workers were super nice and greeted us right as we walked in. There is a lot of choices on their menu and some odd drinks like the black tea with ice cream, I never seen it at anywhere else but here, the drink does make sense though, it was just like a milk tea! I also got the kumquat & plum green tea with boba and that was delicious too! Tangy and flavorful, I recommend going with 50% sugar because 100% was way too sweet for me. Overall, this is a great bubble tea spot to try and enjoy with your friends and family! read more

Wushiland (50嵐) is yet another bubble tea spot that has come to us from Asia. They opened their Richmond location not too long ago and now expanded to a location at Metrotown. Their Metrotown location is pretty hidden beside T&T so you wouldn't know it was there unless you were looking. Their menu is pretty standard with milk teas tea lattes, fruit teas, and brewed teas. One of wushiland's speciality items are their sorbetto drinks where they add a scoop or sorbet on top of their drinks! How fun! They also offer two different types of tapioca options. One are pearls and the other are boba which are smaller sized pearls. I like that they offer both and you can even choose to mix them if you like! Orange green tea I've had the fresh orange tea from Milksha before so I wanted to try the one here. The orange green tea here is stronger in tea flavour and less orange-y. I personally prefer the one from Milksha better because I liked the orange notes of it but this is good for those who enjoy stronger tea flavours. Black tea latte with pearls Their black tea latte on the other hand was amazing! It was full of smoky flavour with the richness from the milk to balance it out. It was one of the stronger black tea lattes I've had and the pearls were perfectly chewy to make the drink all the more delicious. read more

Cute small bubble tea place! I got the four season tea w/ mango sorbetto ice cream, I got this with 50% sugar and regular ice, I 100% recommend this since the sorbet is already at the perfect sweetness! The sorbet doesn't really melt so I mixed it till it became to a similar consistency to a slush, and it was so delicious! *' * definitely a new go to when I'm looking to splurge a little more for my tea cravings @jamiekloeats read more

101 BOBA - Four Season Tea w/ mango sorbetto - Bubble Tea Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

We came on a weekend afternoon and there was only one other customer. Service was decent. By decent I mean no one greeted us or acknowledged us, but the female cashier was patient in giving us recommendations. Prices are reasonable, but depends on what you order. Drinks are around $5-$5.50 excluding $0.50 for pearls/boba. Some items were on the pricey side. If I recall correctly, Ovaltine Milk Tea and some of the fruit teas were over $6 excluding toppings. One drink I saw was $9! Keep in mind that they don't have some of the fruity drinks because they are available in the summer. Aside from the cashier, the gentleman who packed our drinks was slightly awkward. We ordered 2 large drinks and 1 macchiato meaning the cup was not sealed with plastic. The staff decided to put all 3 drinks in a bag with no tray, which made it hard to carry and easy to spill. Let's just say they are generous with the toppings! We were stuffed with pearls (and lots of calories) by the time we were done. There are some reviews online saying that the pearls were undercooked, but ours were cooked properly. The pearls were chewy though tasteless. At 30% sugar, my bf complained that his drink was too sweet. Mine was 50%, but was perfect. The tea flavour in both drinks were prominent and not watered down. We were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed our drinks! Drinks were good, buttttt nothing special. read more

Vancity is becoming a hotbed for BBT! When we heard about Wushiland, we decided that we had to check it out. So we did! I decided to check and try out their Ovaltine Milk Tea, 30 percent sugar, regular ice, with coconut jelly. I've noticed that not all BBT's are created equal in the sense that one BBT shop with 30 percent sugar could be much sweeter than another one with 30 percent sugar. They're not the same. It also depends on what you put in - are you getting regular pearls, or maybe coconut jelly? Those have extra sugar in them, so they will make your drink that much sweeter. Just something to consider when you're ordering. The BBT here at Wushiland is quite sweet, even at 30 percent sugar. But I quite like their Ovaltine Milk Tea. That's pretty much the only thing I get when I come here. Their service is friendly and efficient. You place an order, and if they're not busy, you'll likely get your drink in less than 5 min. If they're busy, you're looking at maybe 5-10 min. They're very fast at making their drinks, so you're not going to be waiting very long. Their service is good. The only gripe is that the workers who work there, English may not be their first language, so be patient with them. They are trying their best to accommodate their customers. The ambiance is nothing home to write about. Their shop is actually very small, so if you wanted to "dine-in" - you can't because there's actually no tables there to sit and chat with your friends. Standing room only. Which is okay with me, because when I come here, I am always taking it to go anyways. Location is pretty good. They're located in a strip mall close to Aberdeen and Yaohan as well as Continental Mall. Closest Skytrain station is either Bridgeport Station or Aberdeen Station. There is a planned Capstan Station, but that's still a few years away. Once that's built, I can see traffic to the business definitely increase. Price for their BBT is I think comparable to most other BBT places in the city. It's definitely not "cheap" - about $6-7 for one, depending on what you're getting. We'd highly recommend coming here to try out! My rundown for Wushiland: Location: 4/5 Price: 3.75/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 4.5/5 read more

Wushiland is definitely a hidden gem for bubble tea. I tried the Four Season Tea With Mango Sorbetto Icecream ($6.30) and it's quite unique. The tea is very refreshing with a subtle taste of wheat. However, I think the mango icecream would've complemented better with a fruit based tea/mango milk tea. Their service is quick, and if it's not busy the wait time is usually around 3-5 minutes. Wushiland's interior imbues modern abstract, detailed with light wooden finishes. It's perfect for Instagram worthy photos! read more

101 BOBA - Milk tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Richmond, British Columbia

Once again this place is awesome for legit Taiwanese style milk tea. Nothing gets more authentic then their classic pearl milk tea with powder, 30% sugar, 50% ice. * The milk tea is smooth and creamy. The powder base for some reason tastes way better than the fresh milk base. I totally recommend trying the powder despite the fact that it's powder, the taste is amazing and very close to how traditional Taiwanese style milk tea is suppose to be. * 8/10 ~ the drink is good the small pearls are nice and chewy. The big pearls are a bit stiff for me so I recommend small pearls. * 10/10 ~ $5.30 for a large size for the milk tea with small pearls. The size is good and well worth the price! * 10/10 ~ mask required, quick grab and go concept. Plexiglass between you and the workers. read more

I gave this place a 2nd chance recently and I was GLAD I did! I wanted to pick their featured but a lot of the flavours were sold out (busy Sunday day?). I tired the 'Four Season Tea w/Mango Sorbetto Ice Cream' and it EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS by a lot. The Sorbetto was unbelievably delicious. A strong sweet-tangy mango flavour blasted onto my taste buds ⁠ It was a 10/10 drink that's perfect for summer. ⁠Seem like their drinks with ice cream are super popular! read more

There are so many new bubble tea places that I haven't tried yet so this time we decided to check out Wushiland. I tried the Ovaltine Latte which tasted exactly like Ovaltine! In hindsight, I feel like I could've made it myself though. They also said the difference between the Ovaltine Milk Tea and the Ovaltine Latte is that the former is made with powdered milk and the latter is made with fresh milk. The Four Seasons Tea with Mango Sorbetto was unique though! It was fruity and refreshing. I forgot which milk tea the last drink was but they gave a generous amount of pearls and they were a good chewiness. The prices are comparable to other bubble tea shops so I wouldn't mind coming back. read more

What always keeps me coming back to Wushiland are their mini pearls! They are such a yummy treat and can be difficult to find in most BBT places. Most places only offer boba (large pearls we are mostly familiar with) or sago, which is comparable but does not taste quite the same. You can also get a mix of both mini pearls and boba! I normally stick to milk teas, and Wushiland's don't disappoint. My favorite is the ice cream milk tea, which TBH can be difficult to drink given a standard BBT cup -- I would recommend mixing the ice cream in because they serve it floating near the top of the cup. Note that you cannot sit-in at this location, it is a very small storefront. Overall it is great, not the best BBT I've ever had but it's definitely one of the better options in the area. read more

I ordered their Orange grapefruit Yakult (70% sugar level) and their Four Seasons Tea with Mango sorbet (regular sugar level). The four seasons with mango is SOO good. It's definitely not too sweet so you don't need to worry about adjusting the sugar level. Very refreshing taste with a nice hint of mango. The orange grapefruit yakult is pretty good too. Has a nice citrusy taste. I ordered it with 70% sugar thinking that the drink may be sweet but I think regular sugar would've been ok too. Next time I'll definitely try their grapefruit yakult next time! read more

I always see Wushiland labeled with "hot" (aka trending) on Fantuan and decided to check it out. I got the 'Four Season tea with mango sorbet.' It sounded interesting but mmm...not really my style. I'm not sure if I was supposed to drink it after the ice cream melts but it was just kinda awkward trying to drink the tea while avoiding the big chunk of sorbetto. The synergy between the tea and icecream was just off in my opinion. I also did not find the tea to be very special. Regardless, I still plan to go back and give it another try as there were some other interesting items on the menu. read more

Washiland Boba, a favorite in San Gabriel In Focus Plaza, and they have two here in Richmond. I went to this location by accident after dinner when my daughter mapped this on yelp. When we finally arrived at this location we slowly drove by it twice. We finally parked and walked around this fairly large plaza. We counted 8 tea and boba places. We finally found Washiland in a middle of their transition to 101 Boba. Their front signage was removed and hasn't been replaced yet. Unlike their SGV location, there is no seating area. The menu was the same except for a few more items, but I came for the Grapefruit Green Tea, Less sugar, half ice, my favorite. And sure enough it tasted the same as one one in SGV. Although the change of name to a very generic name 101, is a bit silly. Guess it sort of appeals to college students, but it's not just college students that drinks tea and boba. The last "101", a cafe, shaved ice place went out of business in Rowland Heights. The "101" noodles is also going or gone. But the plaza is amazing! 8 tea/boba shops. Never seen anyplace with so many and yet parking is still somewhat difficult. If you're looking to try all the competition, this is one place you should visit. read more

Went here on July 31 2021. Customer service was the worst I've ever had at any business. The cashier (screen said Samantha) obviously hated her job. We ordered 3 green tea drinks then changed them to milk tea instead. There was eye rolling, sighs, annoyed tone, and she tried to guilt trip us. She eventually took the 3 step trek to the kitchen and told them to change the order and loudly called us annoying in Chinese to the kitchen staff. I was with 2 non-Asians so she probably thought I wouldn't understand or something. Weird thing is we didn't even pay yet. The order was not finalized. We were still in the communicating, changing, and ordering stage. She had that bad attitude towards everyone else too, not just non-Asians; we could tell by her body language before and after us. It wasn't busy, no long line up. It was not a stressful shift. I can only guess she hates her job and hates people. If you see Samantha working, go to another boba shop in the area, try Wushiland another day. No amount of sugar can fix the bitter taste of Samantha. read more

Wushiland boasts flavourful tea and quality pearls that strike a good balance between soft and chewy. They are generous with their pearl to drink ratio, and the Black Tea Latte is highly recommend! I visit them often, and normally, their service is efficient and polite even on busy nights. On the evening of July 30th however, the young lady working the 8PM Friday shift at the cashier was remarkably rude: I was glowered at, spoken to in an exasperated voice, and the cash register was slammed. When I attempted to clarify an order that had been incorrectly charged (before it was finalized in the system), her attitude only worsened. I understand that it may have been a long day at work, and I don't expect much service at a bubble tea chain. But my order was fairly standard and there were no language barriers that might explain the impatience. The disrespect felt unwarranted, and was shocking and upsetting. A shame, since my other experiences at the store were just fine and the drinks are honestly fire! read more

Wushiland is a franchise from Taiwan thats joined the explosion of bubble tea spots here. I got the boba (bigger pearls) black tea latte and the green tea macchiato, both 70% sweet. Both teas were strong and high quality. The black tea latte used real milk and the boba was nice, chewy, slightly sweet. The cream on top of the macchiato was decent, I prefer mine a bit sweeter but still complimented the tea well. Overall, very good, high quality bubble tea that I would definitely choose Wushiland over some of the other bubble tea spots in the richmond area. read more
