    Mad mango m
    Michealea F.

    I got the mad mango and it was made with fresh mango! The mango was freshly mashed for the drink too. The layers look pretty and complemented each other.

    This is a nice quiet place tucked away by Costco in Richmond. From the outside, it doesn't look flashy nor fancy. They have modest decor. But the dessert is something worth exploring. Their coconut mango mix is something unique. It is served in a real coconut, with the coconut meat on it. It is topped with mango, sago, and taro. Complemented with coconut pudding. The best part is that it's delicious!

    Nice couple making bubble tea.    Avoid the craziness at Costco and chill here

    Babatang is run by a sweet older Chinese man and is located across from Richmond Costco. He welcomed us with utmost hospitality knowing we are from California. We ordered the Mango Lovers ($18) and received the Classic ($13) as a free gift for traveling far to visit his shop. It was so sweet of him, and just as delicious eating the pudding. The mangoes were ripe and coconut flavor was fresh. Most stores use powdered artificial coconut mix, but this was using authentic Thai coconut. The treats are also aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

    We were in need of something sweet after our shopping trips. We found Babatang on Yelp (Of course~ Duh~ ). All the reviews were positive, but they were written by only three Yelpers. We took a leap of faith in those Yelpers and headed our way to Babatang. Appeared tiny from the outside and was difficult to locate at first glance. Inside had an outdated decor but was way spacious than our assumption. An older gentleman who appeared to be the shop owner made all the drinks and desserts, while a lady who might be his wife was sitting on a big sofa behind the counter, watching him. We found it cute and funny. It took about 5 minutes or more to make each item. But nothing mentioned above mattered when every single food and drink made us sing nom nom nom~ Coconut drinks had a rich coconut taste, and wheelcakes were perfect to hold in hands and then in tummy on a cold, crisp winter day. We even ordered extra wheelcakes to go because its creamy golden custard, egged in steamy hot sponge cake, was so addictive. Don't let Babatang's looks fool you. It can surprise you with amazing flavour-bomb foods if you walk into the cafe with an open mind and appetite for discovery!

    Got #1 mango lover and the mango was fresh and delicious...some sago and jelly, a few pieces of taro, then coconut pudding and cream below. Very tasty...more coconut flavor than some other places we've been. Another person in our group got the taro one and said some bits were harder so didn't enjoy as much as I liked mine..but agreed strong fresh coconut flavor

    This is a hidden gem! Literally, it's hidden behind Costco. I was walking by Costco and was intrigued. I wanted to see what they had. I ordered the Japanese hot dog. The hot dog bun was crunchy and the dog was still hot. I wanted to order it with egg. Maybe next time. I also ordered the Mango Madness drink with coconut. That was a cool and refreshing drink on a hot day. I hope you give Babatang a try too. I'm glad I did.

    Quiet and a good spot to study and do some work. There are plenty of coconut products! Server was really nice. Food is served from scratch.

    Sweet 7 is still one of my go-to spots whenever I want something refreshing but also a little…read moreindulgent. My favorite is their Creamy Mango Pomelo Sago--it honestly feels like a dessert and a drink in one. The mango flavor is rich and natural, and what I really like is that when I order 70% sugar, it's mostly just the natural sweetness from the mango--no extra sugar needed. It tastes clean, not overly sweet, but still very satisfying. Every sip has a mix of textures--juicy mango chunks, bits of pomelo, and soft sago--plus that creamy foam on top that ties everything together. This time, I also tried their Cherry Blossom Food Fest menu, specifically the Strawberry Coconut Bliss. It's refreshing with a slight tang from the strawberry, and the coconut adds a creamy, tropical touch. I really liked the coconut chunks--it makes the drink feel more like a treat rather than just a regular fruit tea. Overall, Sweet 7 is one of those places you can rely on for quality drinks that feel a little extra special.

    Great bubble tea options here. We had a variety of mango and milk tea options. We asked for less…read moresugar and they tasted fabulous! Everything was super fresh and the costs were slightly less than other options even though they're in downtown Vancouver. We would absolutely come back.

    I decided to try a different boba place. Especially since Macu is no longer across the street…read more Ordered the kale boost and the brown sugar milk tea. The kale with chia was so refreshing, and the milk tea was just as delicious. You can tell the boba was fresh, it wasn't hard to where you can choke. It was made just right. They didn't look busy, only a couple of us in store. But from the looks of it they had a counter full of orders. So it took my drink between 5-6 minutes to make. Place was cute and clean . Love the logo also

My sister said "oh, we have Heytea in OC, so we'll pass." Pfft, she missed out! We got 2 brown sugar milk teas and 3 coconut mango booms... all with reduced sugar. THEY WERE A HIT AND HIT THE SPOT! First, everything was so fresh. Holy moly, you could just taste it all. I'm not a foodie and food is just calories to me - means to an end. When I get a nice drink like this, I usually gulp it down and cannot understand why my wife takes 2-3 hours to drink a similar drink. HOWEVER, I took my time over the next 2 hours to enjoy it! I absolutely loved the hint of tea in my mango drink. Wow, that's all I can say. Second, the place is newer and the ambiance is so purposeful, clean, professional, and uplifting. They really put the tea up-front-and-center... a nice homage to the heart and soul of "tea parlors" from long ago. We would, hands-down, recommend the place and would go again.

    I think this is a chain and I think I've seen another branch of this in Lansdowne Centre. This one…read moreis in Yaohan Centre. The lady who served us only spoke Chinese and there was a bit of confusion when my husband tried to tell her in English that I wanted Red Date Longan Wolf Berry Tea. Luckily he does speak Chinese as well. When he realized she didn't understand the English words, he used a combination of Chinese and pointing to the board behind her, indicating which item on the board I wanted. Didn't help though that it was one of those menus where the screen changes every few seconds! Highly recommend that you only order from this place if you or someone in your party speaks Chinese! I loved the liquid part of my drink. Red Date Longan drinks are something I have come to appreciate since marrying my husband. This particular drink though had big chunks of dried up stuff in it. I wished they hadn't put that into the cup. The liquid part was great but I really didn't care for the chunky stuff in my cup.

The workers hardly knew English as well, which made communicating a challenge. They only accept cash, and they don't have it posted anywhere. Zero customer service, no smile, gratitude or anything. Very passive aggressive. At the Lansdowne location you would pick it up at the same counter you ordered at but this one makes u go around. I didn't know this so when the worker rang the bell, I didn't know where to go. Instead of directing me kindly, the girl started smashing the little bell and glaring. I would never come here again, customer service disgusts me. Get bubble tea somewhere else as it's quite mediocre. Next time when serving customers have more of a smile and be more kind. Never again

I think it was brand new and the owner was eager to please. This time, the ladies didn't speak any English at all. They couldn't understand what I was ordering. I had to repeat it 4 times ( twice to each of them ) then one had to come around to the board so I could point out what I wanted. The total was 5.49 she said but only gave me back 14$ from my 20$ . I guess she either can't do math or decided to round up, or do a self gratuity. I am waiting now to see how it is, it seems to be taking awhile since I am almost done this review, and it still isn't ready. Ok I got it and it is very very bland : ( I don't think I'll go out of my way to come here again. Perhaps that's why they have a "Help Wanted" sign ...

So, I am bewildered as to what is so "natural" about their drinks as it is clearly made from artificial flavours. Prices has changed. All went up up to almost $7 for a large drink. There are also signs that they charge extra for utensils. The cashier could barely understand English and had asked me to repeat my order twice and tried to sell me a large when I asked for a regular. Will not come back again.
