Awesome new boba place in Christchurch -- the only one I could find in the area, and with much more…read moreaccessible hours than other options which closed at like 6 pm (this location closes 1030-11:30 depending on the day). The boba is well done, service is excellent. Like most Asian fare in the area, quality and taste is top notch here! Definitely check it out!!!

So was frothing for a good bubble tea so ventured to Pa Tea. They have changed their menu which…read morethrew me right off so I ordered a rockmelon milk tea instead of my usual mango peachy number! I am mildly lactose intolerant and this tea was not worth what's to come...The tea literally tasted like shaken up blue top milk with an addition of pearls... the rockmelon was barely there and was waY to subtle for me. Disappointed but ratios are everything so I hope Pa Tea really step their rockmelon game up.

Before our movie, we wanted a drink. Jels seemed like the most reasonable spot as the food court…read moreupstairs was extremely overpriced. Jels is a small bubble tea spot inside the Westfield shopping mall. We dropped by on a Wednesday evening (around 6:00pm). The menu is pretty typical with bubble tea, snow jelly, ice slushy, fruity soda, milkshakes, fruit smoothies, cool frappe, yogo cooling (yoghurt), lemon fig jelly and grass jelly drinks. - Jels red (traditional) (#1) ($5.50 NZD small) - we got this with grass jelly instead of tapioca pearls. This drink is their version of milk tea. Didn't have much milk tea flavour; weak, meagre and overpriced. One of those typical shopping mall spots. Standard, nothing special BBT.

I usually get a mocha milkshake which is around $5.50 and tastes excellent! Their other drinks like the Taro bubble tea (also cheap for a good drink) was amazing and the boba is always great.

Best bubble tea I had in NZ!

Still no luck getting ice in this city/country but they at least shake it up with ice so your drink is served nice and cold.

I'm glad Allison left a yelp review as I was in a desperate search for a bubble tea place and this…read morelocation was within a mile of my hotel. This Teasme location is one out of 3 in Christchurch. I had the Sweet talk green milk tea, which is like a green milk tea except that they use brown sugar as the sweetener instead of the usual. It was quite delicious and satisfied my milk tea craving. Definitely recommend!
