    Perhaps I visited this bubble tea cafe at the wrong time. It was very noisy - a guy who was talking over 80dB on the next table... and the music was also playing loud... that made me headache. It wasn't difficult to find this place where I was expecting to enjoy a relaxing moment with a cup of tea or coffee. Anyway, beverages here are good despite the noise really ruined the mood. The tables are not clean and seemed nobody do the tidying. We requested no ice for the bubble tea but they forgot it, even no strew for the drink. Verdict: Drinks: 4/5 Hygiene: 3/5 Ambient : 4/5 Vibes: 2/5 Service: 2/5 The bubble waffle and drinks were fine. I hope the shop keeper can rectify the issues.

    We stopped by Bubble Queen in Richmond awhile back, when it was still Cherry Blossom Season and ordered the following: Sakura Matcha Ice Cream Lychee Slush Portuguese Egg Tart Bubble Waffle The Lychee Slush and Sakura Matcha Ice Cream were both tasty; while the Sakura Matcha was pretty when we dug into it with our spoons, we discovered that it was hollow in the middle. The ice cream was dispensed in a way such that it swirled around on the outside and appeared to be a big, tall mound of ice cream, but the centre of the cup was empty. This was quite disappointing for us. The Portuguese Egg Tart Bubble Waffle was "meh". We've had a much better Portuguese Egg Tart Bubble Waffle elsewhere. I think if we try Bubble Waffle at this place again, we might stick with a more basic flavor next time. Service: Good Parking: Paid parking Location: 8888 Odlin Crescent #1180, Richmond

    Such a unique hole in the wall boba shop! They are best known for their mango cube slushies and bubble waffles. I got their mango cube slushie and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The drink had a spot on flavor and the mango cubes were so good and fun to scoop out. There isn't much indoor seating so it's not great for big groups. But otherwise a very solid spot that I want to go back to.

    I was in Richmond and wanted to grab a quick boba drink to go. Found this place and decided to give it a shot. I stopped by Thurdsay afternoon at 5 pm and there was only one person ordering in front of me. Wasn't very busy at all. They offer a good selection of fruit drinks and teas as well as slushes. In addition, they also have soft serve and different flavored bubble waffles. Sadly they were sold out of their mango cubes slush that day. I ordered two drinks - a mango milk tea ($5) at 50% sugar and an original milk tea ($4.50) at 50% sugar and with caramel pudding. Both were delicious. My milk tea had the perfect balance of tea, milk, and sugar without any of the components being too overwhelming. I would definitely come back next time I'm in the area to try other drinks!

    I was only here for this signature drink... Mango Cubes Slush.. @bubblequeencafe I didn't come to this place for 2+ years. I was quite shocked when I saw the price. I paid extra $1 for upsizing to large. The drink didn't disappoint me and it's definitely worth a visit. This drink is still very fruity. I love this thick mango slush with fresh mango cubes on top.

    Loved both the mango raspberry fruit smoothie and the seasame red bean slush! And the seasame waffle. We had one of their mango drinks for the first time in the summer and have been missing it since then. It's unavailable this time as it's seasonal. But the alternatives we ordered are just awesome.

    Who is craving a Bubble Queen during Quarantine ? This area is pretty quiet during Covid 19, so it was nice to have a walk before picking up some drinks for take out The menus are easy to read and the staff was very knowledgeable too Pro tip: call ahead to make sure the pearls are ready, especially during these times since only 1 staff is working in the kitchen We got 1 iced Aloe green tea and 1 ferrero rocher slush. I can adjust the sugar and ice level. The Aloe iced was refreshing and the ferrero was blended smoothly! Can't wait till we can order their soft serves again!

    Just learned that there is limited quantities of the mango cube slush based on how many ripe Mangoes they have!

    Bubble Queen is not your regular BBT shop. They are known for their decadent drinks and not so much for their milk tea. Their mango cube slush is one of their most popular drinks but it is seasonal. Also they do sell out early depending on how many ripe mangos they have that day!Another popular drink they have is their Ferrero Rocher drink which is almost like a milkshake/frappuccino. Their drinks are definitely on the sweeter and can fill you as they are not that light!

    I have been coming here since I don't even remember when. I got to revisit today after 5 years and I am so glad this place is still up and running!! The mango cubes slush is the OG here. I used to bus for 2 hours just to get this slush in high school, and it still tasted so good when I got it today! You can really tell that they use real and high quality ingredients. I also got the original bubble waffle, which was kind of burnt but it still was mochy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. I recommend the matcha bubble waffle more though, I swear it tastes like chocolate. I can still remember the taste from the old days. Definitely check out Bubble Queen!!! They also have milk alternatives like oat and soy milk. 10/10 recommend!

    It was so good I couldn't get a picture while it was full!

    Stopped by on a Saturday with the whole family. The place was packed, but by the time we got our drinks and table was open. We ordered oreo slush with pearls, coffee cookie slush with pearls, mango slush with mochi, chocolate bubble waffle and toffee chip bubble waffle. It was pricey, but everything was amazing and all four of us were full. Will definitely be coming back for another drink with mochi!

    Bubble Queen Richmond OPEN TUESDAY THURSDAY SATURDAY 2-9PM Inspired by @vancouverfoodie's post about Bubble Queen that I had to post about it too! this is the mango cubes slush $8.75 The hype is so real and it's worth it! I would definitely call ahead because they do get busy on Saturday so go on the other days. The slush is so creamy and soft. The fresh mangos really makes the difference. Honestly no other bbt place does mango slush like this place. As well they have other delicious drinks like speciality chocolate drinks and super fresh fruit smoothies !! went and got all the toppings! It was a splurge but it's so worth it! I believe pearls and coconut jelly are free with it! They have delicious mochi bubble waffle too but bubble waffles take 15 minutes because it's freshly made so call ahead if you rather not wait! The interior is so classy and pretty. Limited seating! Toppings Pearls 10/10 so soft and they're warm!! That's when you know it's fresh Coconut jelly 10/10 you can't go wrong with it and it's pretty refreshing Mango mochi 10/10 - it's INCREDIBLE!!! A must have because it's perfectly chewy and soft. Regular mochi 9/10 - just as good but I would get the mango mochi over the regular one Mango Star jelly 9/10 - basically a more firm coconut jelly and it goes well! I won't get it again just so I have more slush vs topping Pudding 9/10 it's super silky and soft! Wouldn't get it again because I think I put too many toppings haha Tried the malteser slush with mint $6.80! I hadn't tried their chocolate series but man it's delicious!! Super refreshing and the mint helps with the heaviness.

    After failing to get on an earlier flight at the airport, my bf and I decided to explore the Richmond area to kill time. Bubble Queen was one of the more highly rated places we found on Yelp, so we walked there from the Aberdeen Canada Line Station. We ordered the Peach Green Tea with boba, Jasmine Milk Green Tea with boba, and also an Oreo and Mochi Bubble Waffle. The tea is definitely not as good as Ten Ren's or Tea Station because it tasted artificial from the cheap syrup, but I did like the boba. It was very chewy and not overly sweet from the marinade. Comparing the Bubble Waffle to the ones that I've had at Tasty Garden or the 626 Night Market, I actually enjoyed this one a lot better. There's a ton of Oreo and mochi filling in the waffle, so I was quite full after a couple bites. Overall, I would not recommend getting a drink here, but I would definitely recommend the tasty Bubble Waffle. Servers were also very friendly and efficient.

He rang us up, then ran behind curter to make our drinks. It didn't seem too busy here so maybe it was manageable for him.

I personally tried the cheese foam black tea with mochi and golden pearls which costed close to 10CAD. The cheese foam was slightly salty and pretty creamy, and the taste is much more pronounced when you dip the plain mochi into the drink. The mochi itself was slightly soft though a bit uneven in texture as some parts are chewy and some parts are already a little bit dry. I do like they nicely wrapped the mochi in a plastic bag to preserve the moisture, though I ended up trying it out immediately to get the maximum freshness. The tea itself is flavorful and not too sweet, which is what I intended because I opted for light sugar (30%). The golden pearls were pretty chewy and are the right preferred texture. While I liked the general quality of the drinks, like other reviews mentioned, the price of the drinks are a bit on the higher end but the quality did not really scale up compared to a good boba spot.

The walls are decorated with pictures from Europe and the teacups are very "British." Besides scone and tea, you can get regular food here as well such as fries, salt & pepper chicken, and radish cake to name just a few. You can also get cold drinks like juice & bubble tea, and bubble tea drinks here too. So...not your typical British style Afternoon Tea joint. Kind of half restaurant, half tea place. My friend had a pot of Leisure Fresh Fruit tea and a scone. We'd already had lunch a bit earlier and while my friend had room for a scone, I had zero room in my stomach for any food so I just had a pot of Longan Red Date tea. It was a cold day so a pot of hot tea really hit the spot. I thought it a bit pricy at first, but when the tea came, I saw that the teabags were Fortnum & Mason teabags. That is a very a prestigious company from all the way over in England. When I realized we were drinking Fortnum & Mason tea, all of a sudden $10.25 didn't seem so extravagant any more. My friend said her scone seemed like more of a biscuit than a scone. It came with butter and jam. I think she wished there had been some clotted cream to go with it. I can't say too much about the food as I only had one pot of tea but I was impressed that it was Fortnum & Mason tea, and I very much enjoyed the flavor of the Longan & Red Dates in my tea.

This location is the one I tend to come across the most cause I usually am visiting the mall. The shop sticks out with it's red design. It's just a pretty small boba vendor shop that's kind of hidden away. The menu is basically a screen running a video so that it animates and loops. There's quite of a selection of drinks on it though. Most of them are on the sweeter side with their cookies and cream shake. They've got a lot of crazy drinks going on, but I'm a simple man that likes his simple drinks and lately, I've been very much into the #8 fresh jade lemon green tea. Because the drinks are pretty sweet I usually adjust it to like 75% sweetness. I also adjust the ice level to get more for my buck and ask for less ice. Hard to judge boba shops in my opinion. Especially since any adjustments I make to my drink is on me and not on the shop. Service was quite fine. Only one person was on the job when I was there, but I've seen two people there before. One to make drinks and the other manning the cashier. Overall, I thought my drink turned out fine. Just have to adjust by trial and error to get the right sweetness down for yourself.
