This was written on their Facebook page: Hi All, Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm one of the owners of Chi Tea here in Bolingbrook. We opened this location with the hope of creating a welcoming space for our community. Due to yesterday's severe weather and the delays many are experiencing with repairs and power restoration, I wanted to let everyone know that our doors are open. If you need a place to cool off, charge your phone or other devices, use our Wi-Fi, or simply get some work done, you're more than welcome to stop by. No purchase is necessary. My hope is that Chi Tea can always be a resource for our community. Not just today, but anytime situations like this arise. Whenever there are power outages or other unexpected events, please feel free to stop by and make yourself at home. We'll be open until 10:00 PM today!

The atmosphere was so cute here!

The fries were amaizng though ranch tasted homemade and the plain cheese sauce was great! The seasoned cheese was too spicy tho. My son has eaten here before and told me that most stuff has a spice to it. He was surprised I was there.

We got the grilled pork banh mi which is sweet and savory, topped with cilantro, and fresh crunchy veggies. Optional to add an egg. Bread is soft on the inside crunchy on the outside. Sandwich was almost perfect, I just felt they could have added a bit more ingredients inside. The proportion of ingredients to bread ratio was off, a little too much bread. But if you add an egg my partner says it'll balance the ratio.

This looked like an interesting place so I decided to try it…read more Ban Mhi (grilled pork) was delicious. Bright flavors with all the veggies and cilantro. Bread could have been better, but not the worse. The crispy chicken was the star of the meal! I'll definitely have that again. Great crisp and flavor. I got it with Boom Boom sauce and it worked great. Fries were good, and so was the milk tea. The cinnamon sugar waffles though were a total let down: very dry. Extremely disappointing All in all, a good local option and will definitely order again.

When I got in, there was a lot more space than I thought. That was nice because I only worry when I go to places for club meetups that I have squeeze into tight spaces. Walking in for a bunch of things to like shop around such as blind boxes and jewelry. There was Smiski and Sonny Angels so I got a box of each. I was so excited because lots of places either have fakes or it is sold out. I got two kinds of boba drinks-a Okinawa milk tea and a passionfruit and Yuzu mix. Both very tasty! If I'm in the area, I'll definitely come back and there's usually a meet up there which is really nice because they offer a lot of things to buy so I can support their business more.

The weird part was asking if i had a punch card and when i said no they didn't offer me one either? Either way, i got the taro strawberry smoothie and a hazelnut iced coffee. Neither of us enjoyed the drinks because they're very syrup heavy resulting in a drink that's wayyyyy too sweet. It just tastes like drinking concentrated syrup and powder blended/mixed with milk. Barely tasted any taro. Having some real ingredients like frozen strawberries with taro powder is what I'd expect at this price point. Not both ingredients being powdered and syrups. The tapioca itself was really good, soft and not too chewy. But there's just way too much of it, you're eating boba more than enjoying a drink. The brown sugar syrup that the boba sits in doesn't help with the additional sweetness in the drink. Wouldn't recommend for real drinks

One of Aurora's (Chicago Suburbs) Best Boba Tea Spots!…read more After traveling around the world and tasting boba from Taiwan to Singapore, I can confidently say that Vannie House in Aurora delivers some of the best tapioca pearls I've had in the U.S. The pearls are perfectly chewy, fresh, and absolutely on par with the quality I've experienced in top-tier Asian tea shops. One thing I really appreciate is the tapioca-to-drink ratio. Most boba shops either overload you with pearls or drown everything in too much liquid. Vannie House nails the balance, every sip and scoop feels intentional and well crafted. I tried several drinks on my visit: M9 (modified with Thai Tea) -- Smooth, flavorful, and extremely well blended. A3 Orange Peach with Black Tea -- Sweet, refreshing, and surprisingly layered in flavor. Hot Chai Tea -- Rich, warm, and incredibly smooth. Easily one of the best chai teas I've had at any boba shop. The interior decor is also a standout, clean, modern, cozy, and aesthetically designed. It's the kind of place you actually want to sit and enjoy your drink rather than rush out. Huge shoutout to Niko, whose recommendations were absolutely on point. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, exactly the kind of service that keeps you coming back. If you're in Aurora and looking for high-quality boba tea, Vannie House (my #47 Boba Tea Spot) is a must-try. I'll 100% be returning whenever I'm in the area.
