A cute boba shop close to Stanley Park. We ordered a pineapple iced tea and a winter melon tea with boba. My pineapple iced tea at 70%sugar was perfect. I can still taste the pineapple. My guy ordered the winter melon with brown sugar boba. The boba was still warm and it was perfectly chewy. I wish I got some boba in mine. Overall, we were very pleased with our drinks. A nice respite from the cold and had an opportunity to rest our tired feet. FYI. No public restroom, unfortunately. read more

Baroness has a good selection when you're in the mood for boba tea. Stopped by on a weekday afternoon and it's a great place to catch up with a friend, study or get some work done. Friendly staff! The order: - Roasted Oolong Tea with Pearls: A solid brew - great flavor and the pearls are brown sugar pearls! Tip: If you add pearls, ask for 30% or no sugar and the drink won't end up being too sweet. Baroness also offers a student discount. read more

I wanted to love this place. The staff were nice and I appreciate that all the ingredients are fresh, but my drink was way too sweet. I ordered a roasted oolong milk tea with pearls, not realizing they would be the brown sugar variety. It was not indicated on the menu and no one double checked my order before I paid for it, otherwise I would've selected something else. It was also pretty pricey for what it was...I got a medium (looked more like a small) and it cost over $6. Sadly, I don't think I'll be back anytime soon. read more

Baroness - Roasted oolong milk tea with brown sugar pearls - Bubble Tea Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

They specialize in brown sugar pearls and offer both fruit tea and milk tea options. What we really like about it is that you can substitute OAT MILK in any of the drinks, which is great for those with dairy allergies. They are generous with the toppings and the unique flavors are tasty - eg Milo bubble tea. Both times we went took a bit of time because there was only one person taking orders and making the drinks. If service was faster then it will be a solid 5 stars. read more

When I read about the Baroness Brown Sugar Oat Milk Boba drink, I put it on my list of must tries for my next Vancouver trip. Baroness is in the Kitsilano neighborhood of Vancouver, close to great city beaches and waterfront parks to enjoy your boba drink. When I arrived at Baroness there was a sign on the door that the pearls were sold out and fresh pearls would be ready in 15 minutes. The store was empty so I decided to come back. 15 minutes later, fresh boba and a packed store! The folks behind the counter were a well oiled machine and my 30% sweet, 50% ice drink was ready. The pearls were warm and fresh, and the brown sugar oat milk combo made this the best boba tea I have had to date. They have about 30 drinks to choose from and a boba DIY kit on their website. I am glad I don't live near Baroness or I could see a major habit forming! read more

Good flavored bobas! I ordered the classic milk tea with no sweetener because the bobas are covered in sugar. It was the right choice! Small little spot with 1-2 tables behind the entrance. read more

My order: The Brown Sugar Oat Milk was really good, and surprisingly not too sweet. I ordered half sweet (as recommended by the staff), but didn't sacrifice the pearls for once. My lactose intolerant body also thanks them for the deliciously thick oat milk. The brown sugar pearls had such a perfectly chewy texture. My favourite bubble tea place for brown sugar milk thus far. Lychee Paradise (blue) was a refreshing lemon-y drink with coconut jelly. Definitely for people that like sour drinks, which I personally enjoy. I didn't taste much lychee though. I can definitely taste the subtle bitterness of tea afterwards, which was good (doesn't just taste like syrup water). Grapefruit Aloe Citrus Green Tea (red) was also on the lemon-y side as well, paired with the tartness of the grapefruit. Aloe provides a great texture to the drink. All drinks were perfect at HALF sweet. read more

We were craving boba so thought we checked this place out. It's on par with other boba shop and offer quite a variety of drinks. We had the purple yam and taro & oatmilk drinks. The purple yam was very pretty. I like the purple yam more than the taro. The taro was good although I prefer a stronger taro taste. The boba itself was soft and not too chewy. Come check this place out! read more

Been so long since we've been here 'cause it was quite far and we missed it sooooo much. Their drinks were still as good as we remembered them and their hospitality still as jovial as ever. The tripleberry cheese foam was very fresh and looked too pretty to drink. We normally avoid eating berries since their small seeds feel very rough and unpleasant but blended up in this form it wasn't bad at all. Great drink to give you a dose of vitamins in the lousy weather. The infused rose brown sugar oat milk was surprisingly good. The aroma of rose was not overpowering and drink was definitely sweet enough to balance the floral essence and the richness of the milk. The more you drank the better the flavour, and it was reminiscent of the Hong Kong Vita brand oat milk flavour, which was nice. read more

One thing that excites me about trying out different boba shops is seeing unique things on the menu. I've never seen a Milo brown sugar OAT milk before. LIKE THE CONSIDERATION TO OFFER OAT MILK!! i already loved this place when I seen it. I love milo so of course I had to get it. And I didn't have to worry about going to the bathroom hehe. It was sooo good. Probably my go to drink if I ever come back. I also tried their sunset drink (I can't remember) but that too was really good. read more

Baroness - Bubble Tea Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I wanted to try Baroness for a long time. I didn't realize it was in Kits the whole time. I heard about it couple months back. This is another one of those chains from Taiwan. The bubble tea theme here is different from Xing Fu Tang, Yi Fang or Gong Cha. Yes they have brown sugar this and that too. But they specialize in oatmilk. No the oatmilk is not wheat germs (I asked). It is a special kind of milk made out of oats. So I asked what is their specialty drink and they said it is the Thai with Oatmilk or Brown Sugar with Oatmilk. I took her advice and got the Thai with Oatmilk with 30% ice and 30% sugar. It was very delicious. The tea was nice and smooth. It has a really rich flavor. It is somewhat expensive. After tax $7.09. The place was super busy when I showed up. Lots of people coming in and trying their milkteas. They make it fresh on the spot. There are several seats in the bubble tea place but it is still very limited. Most people just grab and go. Service was great here. I highly recommend checking this place out. Not sure how easy it is to find parking. read more

A small bubble tea place with a cute decor. The menu is not extensive but I am glad they are good a what they offer I like that the menu is a on giant screen on the wall so customers can decide their order while in line We had to Fresh Taro with Oat milk and the Brown Sugar with Oat milk. The fresh taro is pureed but I can still taste fresh pieces of taro, which I like (I've never tried fresh taro milk before) The brown sugar milk was delish. The pearls were just perfect! The oat milk was very smooth in the drinks we had. The ice they use is a slush kind of ice, which is different than other places The staff are very friendly, which is a plus! #BubbleteawithOatMilk read more

This was on my list of places to go in Vancouver, and I wish I came here earlier! The drinks are so good!! The staff were all very friendly too. They use real everything for their drinks, so real taro, real chestnuts, etc. My favorites were the Taro Oat Milk with Taro Balls (no sugar) and Black Rice Oat Milk with Taro balls (25% sugar). They taste very homey and comforting. The Chestnut with Oat Milk is also pretty good since you can really taste the blended chestnuts. The Winter Melon Tea with boba tasted like any other Winter Melon Tea but the boba was sweet and chewy! read more

Checked out Baroness as we were in the area. This visit was early June, so if my memory serves me correctly, we ordered the Milo Brown Sugar + Oat Milk with pearls, Lychee Paradise, and Roasted Oolong Milk Tea with pearls. All the drinks were pretty good. It's too bad that it is quite the trek for me to get here (30+ mins) as I'm in Burnaby, and I'm normally not in West Broadway/Kitsilano area read more

I'm a huge fan of brown sugar milk tea and imo this is one of the better bbt place i've been to. You can choose between the level of sugar and ice you would like, which is nice. The pearls have been consistently soft from the times I've been here. I highly recommend! read more

How in the world did I discover this Taiwanese boba chain not in Taiwan, not in California (Taiwanese boba chains are migrating into the OC like crazy), but in Vancouver?! With house made brown sugar boba and milk teas executed beautifully - from the quirky flavors down to the creamy texture - Baroness might now just be considered THE Baroness of all the boba shops I've visited in my lifetime. I've visited them only twice, 2 days in a row while in Vancouver, and from these 2 visits alone I made the ultimate decision. They are THAT amazing!! First off, they use my all time fav milk substitution - oat milk - along with regular milk options without compromising each drink's flavor profile. Instead, the oat milk in the drinks complement them quite well giving extra creamy texture. This leads me to my next point - their flavors are all on point and shine through. The blueberry milk tea, purple yam milk and taro oat milk with brown sugar were not lightly flavored. The fruity elements dominated the drink, but in a good way, with hints of brown sugar in the background. Third, their toppings are great, especially because they are made in house. Their homemade boba is the best kind of boba! It's fresh, chewy/QQ and sweetened perfectly. The cheese foam is also noteworthy and a great addition to each drink I added it into. And finally, their service is awesome! On day 1, the lady (I presumed to be some sort of manager) saw how overwhelmed I was with all the menu offerings and gave me a sample which ultimately led to my decision to get that blueberry milk tea. With her help, I made a great decision, of course! She later followed through to ask me how I liked it, and unsurprisingly I gave her the 2 thumbs up. On day 2 when I visited and asked for cheese foam to be added into my purple yam milk, initially the bobarista forgot it; however she caught her own mistake and offered to make a new one right away while also handing me the old one to keep for another time. That was pretty sweet! Too bad that the closest Baroness location to me is in Vancouver. I'm just waiting for the day to come when Baroness arrives in SoCal to take on other Taiwanese competitors like Ding Tea and Sharetea - they'll crush the competition. Or Option 2 is I'll just have to take another trip out to either Vancouver or Taiwan (I'll have to search for their locations out there) which I wouldn't mind at all! read more

One of the best bubble tea places I've tried. Got an oat milk fresh taro bubble tea with pearls. Their oat milk is incredibly creamy, and the fresh taro is delicious. They have so many options and all different milk alternatives. The pearls were perfect. Only qualm would be the price-7$ for a bubble tea is a bit steep, but other than that, would definitely check it out. read more

We got their Thai Tea brown sugar bubble tea drink and had absolutely no complaints about the Thai tea drink. Sugar level was spot on with our usual 30% sweetness. The one complaint we did have was with their pearls, we found them quite hard and chewy compared to other bubble tea places. read more

Excellent place for bubble tea. We got the boba milk tea, purple yam boba, lychee paradise, and pineapple tea. Drinks include one free topping. I loved how the purple yam was freshly made mashed in the drink and the boba was just the right amount of chewiness. All the drinks look so pretty too with the crushed ice and colors. You can adjust sugar and ice too. One of the best boba places we went to in Vancouver. read more

Of the boba places I've had in Vancouver, this one definitely has the strongest tea flavor - they brew very strong tea for their bubble tea, which I definitely appreciate. I liked roasted oolong milk tea at other places and the one here is ok, as it's flavor is less floral and overall more mellow than other oolongs I've had. Bonus points: for those who are lactose intolerant, their oat milk options also make things quite digestable for those unfortunately afflicted in that way. That is not me, but if you felt like you were always getting the short end of the stick or boba adverse, at least they got you covered. That said, their pearl game is so-so. It's brown sugar pearls but the flavor is a bit muted and mine were slightly overcooked. It did provide good contrast with the tea though. Overall, it's a decent place to stop by if you're in the neighborhood or want something with oat milk. Will definitely get your fix in but there's better in town imo. read more

After a long awaited soft opening, Baroness Bubble Tea had their grand opening on Saturday, December 7th! They are famous for their oat milk option that substitutes milk in bubble tea. The use of oat milk gives lactose intolerant people the chance to enjoy the beauty of bubble tea. It harmoniously combines with the caramel flavours of brown sugar and its thicker, creamier consistency, compared to other milk alternatives, makes it a winning drink experience. I highly recommend the Purple Yam with Brown Sugar because the oat milk adds a cheerio, honey like sweetness to the nutty and sweet purple yam. The milk doesn't overpower the main drink ingredients which was a plus for me. The brown sugar milk drinks were one of the best compared to the big players like YiFang and Gong cha. Everyone raves about the Thai Tea with Brown Sugar and they weren't wrong! It had the signature star anise and clove flavour that brings out a bold and slightly bitter aftertaste. Get it with 30% sugar because Thai tea isn't the same if the drink is overly sweet. One stand out point about Baroness is the amount of care they put into each drink. Even though the store was busy, they made sure each drink came out beautiful and you knew you weren't being cheated on as they ensured that the portion fills the cups. Final Thoughts I will definitely be back to try more drinks and explore their secret menu. Although prices are higher, ~$6.75 for a medium size cup, I prefer quality over quantity. There is no point in treating yourself with bubble tea that isn't great in taste but large in size. read more

Baroness is new in the Kits neighbourhood. It started in Taiwan. I'm glad it made its way here. It's premium bubble tea. The ingredients are high-quality and the oat milk they use are an excellent alternative to dairy milk. It's quite expensive but worth trying once. The option of having 50% sugar is probably the most preferred. 70% was a little bit too sweet. I'll come again if I'm at Kits area. read more

WOW! I'm so happy that Baroness exists and I'm so lucky that its a short walk from my house! Their quality is top notch - they brew their tea fresh (no powder business) and the flavors they offer include your traditional favorite but also ones that are so unique. They are on the pricier side in my opinion but honestly so worth because you're definitely paying for quality that you won't regret. My boyfriend and I shared a regular drink of their Black Sugar Oat Milk bubble tea! I'm SO impressed at how they made oat milk work so well in their drinks. Like how can you say no to such a delicious milk tea and the perk is that if you're lactose sensitive, you will have no problems after drinking this! If you don't like things too sweet, I highly recommend you get 30% sweetness on this drink because it worked great for me. The oat milk adds such a fantastic flavor to milk tea - this drink reminded me of the brown vita soy (malt soy drink) :D You won't be disappointed! read more

Baroness - Black sugar oat milk tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Was in the area for their grand opening where all drinks were $3. My best friend got the Brown Sugar Milk Tea and I got the Thai Style Brown Sugar Milk Tea with oat milk. LOVE LOVE LOVE that oat milk is an option. I can barely get brown sugar drinks because I'm lactose intolerant. This place also lets you adjust sugar and ice levels which is interesting because everywhere else doesn't for brown sugar drinks. Both drinks tasted good. The only reason why I didn't give this place 5 stars is they are SO expensive. Especially not being a global chain. Our drinks would've been $7+ EACH. Which is getting a bit ridiculous for bubbletea. read more

Their drinks are really good! Very fresh feeling. I got the Purple Yam with Brown Sugar. I chose 70% sweet as I personally don't like my drinks sweet (I normally get my milk tea and tea 30%). However, the drinks was not sweet at all for me! So I recommend getting the drink regular sweet! This was a similar case for my friend's pearl milk tea. The drink itself is very good - just a pricier than most places in my own opinion for what I'm getting. For more thoughts on this drink see my post on instagram @luan.teaddiction read more

As visitors to Vancouver, we decided to try this place after reading raving reviews. At first, the shop seemed small and was run by college students, which gave me the assumption that it's just an overly sweet tea shop like most. We ordered a Thai tea with Oat milk and boba, and accidentally ordered a roasted oolong with boba. At first sip, I didn't think much of the Thai tea hectare because I was expecting the orange cloyingly sweet restaurant Thai tea. Nope. They served me freshly brewed black tea that was just perfectly sweetened at 30% with nicely soft, but chewy boba. I usually sip my drinks and hardly finish them. I finished this one without knowing it. It changed my perspective on Thai tea. The roasted oolong was meant to be the rose infused drink, as the barista misheard us, but the drink was strongb enough in tea flavor, adding in some milk to help with the bitterness of the roast- rendering it a very pleasant afternoon pick-me-up. We went back the next day... just go try it for yourself. I wish they made Thai tea that way in the US. read more

Very sweet lady working today. She recommended taro milk tea which was excellent. This was probably one of the best milk teas I've ever had.

I was looking for boba, and instead found the best tasting items in Vancouver. I'll never look at taro the same after this.

We found this little gem randomly before driving back to the US. We ordered a brown sugar with oatmilk and brown sugar purple rice milk. They were heaven! read more

Came here for the first time today and will definitely be back! There are a lot of different flavours to try on the menu and they even have oat milk for ones who are lactose intolerant, etc. We tried a hot drink and cold drink to have best of both worlds. Both were great, we ordered a thai milk tea and a hot brown sugar ginger oat milk. The brown sugar pearls were soft and chewy. Tasted like nothing I've ever had before. The ginger oat milk was very good, strong ginger flavour. Perfect for a cold and rainy vancouver day. All in all, even though it's not close to home, it's worth the drive and worth a try! We will be back for more. read more

AMAZING boba, really friendly service, and they have oatmilk! Now we all know that oat milk is all the craze, but who knew that it could go so so well with brown sugar boba?

Definitely come for the boba! read more

Really promising new place offering a diverse and unique menu. One of their specialties is oat milk drinks but they also have a selection of drinks that uses dairy milk (I'm not sure if it's possible to substitute as each of their drinks is very distinct). Also they make all of their pearls with brown sugar! The atmosphere in the shop is very well-crafted: smells fantastic, clean and neatly decorated, and relaxing music. The seating area isn't super efficient - the chairs are comfortable but take up a lot of room so although the area itself is large there's not a ton of seating, but it didn't fill up while I was there so I guess it's not a problem for now. The person who took my order was very pleasant and helped me choose the right ice level for my drink. I had the purple yam milk with pearls. Originally I asked for no ice but the worker explained that the ice helped hold the yam on top of the drink so I went with 30% instead. The drink had a mild earthy flavour and I thought there was a good balance between milk and yam in the taste. The pearls were really fantastic! They were fresh and still warm, and smooth but soft and chewy. The brown sugar also added an interesting flavour dimension to the drink. Overall this place left a really good impression on me with the authentic taste of their drinks and friendly disposition! Not exactly cheap, but very high quality. I'd definitely recommend checking them out. read more
