The variations are endless!* *Not true. Just a figure of speech. Gong Cha let's you choose the amount of ice, level of sugar, hot/cold, and the size of cup. As well as offering a wide range of flavours and exciting add-ons like pearls, puddings or milk foam.

TL:DR - Lots of interesting fruit tea combinations, which isn't really my preference. The matcha…read moremilk tea I got was alright. Boba could have been better. Not going to lie, the rating is primarily based on the incompatibility of their options and my bubble tea preferences. I came to this place based on a recommendation from a friend. This place focuses primarily on their fruit teas, which I'm not a overly huge fan of and tend to prefer classic milk teas. This limited my options a lot. Ended up getting a matcha latte, which was fine. Nothing overly amazing. More matcha foward, less milk and sugar (I got standard sugar). The boba was alright, it was chewy but tended to stick together inside the drinking, making it a little difficult to get a few boba in each sip. The place inside was rather small, but clean and bright with light colored wood and white walls. The owner has a huge fascination with what I can only assume is a Korean pop-star? Like this guys face is everywhere. But I appreciate the late 90's early 00's Chinese pop-music a lot.

There are limited seats so snag one while you can. SIGNATURE FOUR SEASONS FRUIT TEA This drink was very fruity and refreshing. I like the citrus flavors with the light tea notes. WATERMELON GREEN TEA The watermelon was so fruity and sweet. I love the combo of the fruit with the light green tea flavor. ROSELLE BERRY APPLE This was my favorite. I really like the fresh apple flavor. It was very fruity and reminded me of a fresh squeezed apple juice, but with other fruit bits as well. I would order this again. This place is one of my favorite boba places in melbourne. The flavors are clean and fruity. It's definitely a must visit.

A local shop, Top Tea is indeed the Top Tea place in Melbourne, hands down. While only being around…read moresince 2016, Top Tea is hanging with some of the best known and most established Tea shops in the world, literally being next door to them and outshining them. Using only the best and freshest ingredients, mixed with quality teas, Top Tea delivers goodness in a cup. From traditional teas, to fruit teas, to cheese toppings, to brûlée, to momo, to yogurt, to whatever bubble tea you can thibk of, they seem to have you covered. Had to come here multiple times a day to get my fix, knowing fully well we'd be leaving Melbourne soon. Everything we tried was top notch and you honestly can't go wrong. Their fruit teas especially were out of this world. Feeling overwhelmed? The staff would be happy to help and explain how their menu works. They are super friendly and efficient. Absolutely loved how the place was decorated, too. With bright colors and friendly decor, the vibe felt positive and upbeat. Overall, if you are in Melbourne and love tea, you need to try Top Tea!

A relatively new version of Bubble Cup or Happy Cup, Chaitime brings these Asian drinks to…read moreWestfield. A multitude of different flavours offered as milk tea, green or black tea, they specialise in random flavours and more traditional ones created with highly processed syrup or powders. I'm not really sure if the drinks are supposed to be refreshing, however if you are offered sweetener, after trying my first beverage here, I would say 'no'. I do after my first two sips feel a potential hyper-glycemic attack slowly brewing. Rushed off their feet due to the popularity of this 'new addition' to Knox, there's no time to dawdle and make your decision at the counter. Be prepared and make your choice before stepping up. If not, you will find within a blink a queue of 15 people patiently (or maybe not so) waiting behind you. Service was quite quick, but I am now off to anywhere else to buy a bottle of Mount Franklin to try and dilute the sugar intake currently being experienced!

Loved that they had the options for the customers to pick how much ice and sugar they want for their drinks. We ordered the royal pearl milk tea & chocolate milk tea with pearls. The pearls or tapiocas were soft and chewy, and the teas were perfectly flavored & delicious as well. We had to wait only about 5 minutes for the drinks.

Gong Cha! I'm so…read moreglad that I finally got to try it. I think I had posted it on IG and Tiffany C had told me that she had recommended me the one in Northern California in the USA. I went for their milk foam oolong tea and it was great that they had a winter sale! Instead of 5.50AUD, drinks were 3.50AUD for regular/ 4AUD for a large. Their milk foam was heavenly. I think they call it a "milkstache" in other parts of the world now haha. But it seriously transformed the drink into something amazing. Mixing it with the oolong- ooh so dang good. It's so.. I wanna say rich but it's not exactly that ._. Their tea is also brewed really well and isn't being carried by the milk foam- both parts come together to create an experience for you. Enjoyed it while going to the Samsung Store You can also get modifications here as well- I went for less sugar and ice. I'm also hoping I'm writing the review for the right location xP
