    Coin Cake - Mozzarella $5.50 It was okay. Not bad, not memorable...just somewhere in the middle. Strawberry Matcha Latte $7.50 with strawberry popping pearls $0.75, oat milk $0.50 This was a solid drink. The strawberry added a nice touch and the popping pearls gave it a little fun texture. With so many spots offering matcha these days, I'm not sure how soon l'd come back...but it wasn't a bad stop.

    Brown Sugar and Creme Brulee Milk Tea
    Dane B.

    "Another Day, Another Cha Tea" I've been to Cha Tea many times now, and I still pass by and think about stopping in for another round. This place has become one of my go-to spots, and honestly, it never disappoints. The vibe in here is really sweet and welcoming, one of those boba shops that just feels good to hang out in. Not trying too hard, but definitely put together in a way that makes you want to stay a bit longer than just grabbing your drink and leaving. I went with the brown sugar creme brulee milk tea with double boba and wow--this drink was actually delicious. The brown sugar flavor came through without being overwhelming, and that creme brulee twist gave it this almost caramelized richness that made the whole thing feel a little fancy. The boba was perfectly chewy, and getting double was absolutely the right call. My hubby got the Oreo creme brulee with boba which was also really good, leaning into that cookies and cream situation with the same smooth, decadent quality. Service was super quick and the staff seemed genuinely friendly. This spot has totally earned its place in my regular rotation--I keep coming back for good reason.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    Plain sugarcane (left) for $9 and Hokkaido milk tea with boba (right) and completely watered down

    I know my boba teas well and this place just didn't do it for me. I ordered a Hokkaido milk tea with boba and it essentially was watered down and boba was so-so and my drink was about $7. My mom tried it too and agreed. She kept trying to get me to go inside to return it but I just didn't want to bother. My mom got the plain fresh sugarcane drink and that was close to $9! She said it was good but not worth that much. I had a try also, it was tasty but I can't justify paying close to $9 for it. I think for the price point and what you get, not that great value or taste wise. Also, the outdoor tables were in bad shape and super wobbly and could not place anything on them and they were filthy. Doubt I'll come back here again, unless something changes.

    All I can say is PANDAN BUBBLE WAFFLE WITH ICE CREAM is chefs kiss! My go to dessert place after having a meal right next door at HMart. Not only do they have a bunch of options of sweets but drink options too with different toppings choices. Service is great and they're so sweet :) Great hang out spot! All pictures are from different days, that's how much I looooove me some bubble waffles!

    Sugarcane coco, iced coffee with taro, Oreo smoothie

    I'm always craving a sugarcane drink for some reason and this spot is as good as it can get for me. Tons of different kinds of drinks to choose from. Service is always on point. Cute little tea shop. They also have macaroons/cookies for sale. Sugarcane coco 4/5 Iced coffee with taro 5/5 Oreo smoothie looks good but I didn't get to try it.

    Matcha milk tea
    Emma N.

    This place was good! After getting a foot massage in the plaza, I HAD to check out the boba place conveniently located next door!!! Cha Tea has a large menu, lots of drink choices including teas, smoothies, coffees, ice cream and food choices too. When I arrived around 545pm on a weekday, it was pretty slow. There are lots of seating options here and fun claw machine. I'd been craving matcha and decided to try the Matcha Milk Tea with boba. It was pretty good! I sat inside for a while and enjoyed my drink. It got pretty busy after that and it seemed like the two people working were getting behind. I might come back if I was in the area again.

    Sea salt Viet coffee
    Emily L.

    I've been going to Cha Tea for years, but finally getting around to reviewing it since it still seems to be so underrated! Conveniently located in the H-Mart lot, this shop offers perfectly chewy boba every time. It's nothing fancy, but the drinks are so reliable -- never too milky or too sweet. And the menu is pretty huge. I've even been able to order a coffee milk tea (not on their current menu) since they have the ingredients for it. My latest obsession has been the sea salt Vietnamese coffee. Nice and strong, with a very light saltiness balance the sweetness. The snacks menu is ever-evolving, so there are often nice surprises when returning. They've recently updated the space with comfy chairs and new tables, too. WiFi is also available, so all in all would recommend!

    Sugar cane menu
    Tonisha C.

    Wednesday evening visit. They were out of sugarcane so one person in my party had to change their order. We had the lemongrass orange peach tea and coconut smoothie. There was no wait to order. It was on the warmer side inside. The service was fine.

    "Red sauce"

    Health hazard. Raw pate. I've made pate before, im vietnamese. Pate is blended pork/chicken liver. Post processing it will always be some shade of brown. This is red. Clearly raw. This is a repeat review. They got mine removed and tried to cover this up as a "red sauce". I came to the store and asked them about the red sauce but the person in the front didn't know anything about it. I'm from Vietnam and this was definitely raw.

    What an incredible experience I had on a whim. This Boba-Tea, Waffle Ice Cream shop is a must try. I created an ice cream version of my favorite boba tea. Homemade Waffle Cone. Taro ice cream. Boba pearls and Mango popping Boba with whipped cream. The portion was large. 2 can share Can't wait to go back!

    Strawberry Sugarcane & Durian Sugarcane
    Lien S.

    After having lunch in the HMart food court, I came here to grab drinks. It was busy but I had no idea it would take as long as it did for 2 drinks! The cashier didn't seem very friendly. I ordered a Strawberry Sugarcane and a Durian Sugarcane. Unsure if you can adjust sugar level for these since the cashier didn't ask about sweetness preference but I would recommend asking for it to be a little less sweet. Mine was the strawberry and I got the durian for my mom. We both said it was a lil too sweet. It took wayyy too long to receive the drinks. I heard them calling numbers all out of order too. It should not take 30-40 mins. Had I known that, I wouldn't have ordered

    Angel A.

    We bought 4 drinks and I have never had a boba drink that they put coffee filter on as a cover then a lid but didn't seal it with no sealing machine. Not coming back. There is plenty of boba places to go elsewhere. His attitude at the cash register was rude. Not a friendly place.

    Pennyworth Sugar Cane
    Kimberly P.

    This place is a hidden gem. It's in the same plaza as Daiso and Hmart. So after some grocery shopping, you can stop by this place for some refreshing drinks and or desserts. Coming from the Bay Area, I have yet to find a place that sells fresh sugar cane juice until I discovered Cha Tea. Their sugar cane drinks are worth checking out. I love their penny wort and sugar cane option. It is a little pricey at $7.50 but it's well worth it to me. On top of their drinks, they sell shave ice, cake cups, and french macarons. The service is great! The ladies are very friendly and quick to fulfill your order. It's a clean and nice family owned place. They play music videos which might not be as kid friendly, but overall, the ambiance is a nice cafe style. I highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area!

They are reasonably priced although I felt like the price difference for the matcha Thai vs Thai milk tea wasn't worth it. The matcha itself did taste good though and I'd love to come back and try their Pandan Matcha. Their boba is consistently chewy and yummy. Drinks are consistent in quality with variety. We showed up late and the person who served us was very kind, patient, and welcoming despite it being close to closing. We were apologetic and grateful. (Thank you to her!). Otherwise, beware of limited parking like everywhere else in Mesa. This location also has an added bonus in that it's open later than a lot of other boba places so you can still fit in that boba run after dinner! We were also impressed that they have options for a 32 ounce so you can REALLY get your cravings satisfied! Overall, a really solid option.

The interior was not very clean- the inside is white with beautiful furniture, but most of it was sticky or messy, and the floor had smudge marks. There were straw wrappers from previous customers also strewn about on a few tables. The employees, too, were curt, unprofessional (half were sitting at a table on their phones, and half were roughhousing behind the counter, one employee even slapped the other? NOT a good look.) and did not greet us when we came in. We tried to order about 3 different drinks, but they were out of half of the toppings on the menu. The female employee who took our order looked annoyed that we dared try to order drinks that were on the menu- it was unsettling and not a great customer service experience. Finally, we got our drinks, and they were pretty much all ice in a fancy cup. The tea portion that we did receive was fine, but almost 20 dollars for bad service, and mostly ice is unacceptable. The flavors were nothing to write home about- and the dragon tea refresher my boyfriend got was not particularly unique. I've heard and seen good things about Xing Fu Tang locations in other states, but if they want to survive in Mesa, AZ, they may want to start actually carrying the ingredients advertised on the menu, as well as training their employees on professionalism. Jeez.

The Fresh Taro Milk is made with real taro, and you can actually taste the difference. It has that fresh, earthy flavor instead of the artificial powder taste a lot of places use. The texture was everything, and the drink size felt just right. Not too much, not too little. The Brown Sugar Earl Grey Milk was creamy, smooth, and perfectly balanced. You still get that floral Earl Grey flavor while the brown sugar adds just enough sweetness. The boba in both drinks was soft, fresh, and had the perfect chewy texture. The shop itself is adorable. I loved all of the capybara-themed artwork, and they also have pieces from local artists available to purchase, which makes the space feel really unique. My favorite part was the sticky note art wall where everyone leaves little doodles and messages. It's such a fun way to bring the community together and adds so much personality. It had the perfect amount of people when I visited. Busy enough that you know it's a good spot, but still relaxed enough to hang out and enjoy your drink.

Super chill and a bright, open space to enjoy some delicious drinks. The staff here are friendly and welcoming. When I come here I usually get iced fruit tea, milk tea, or matcha. They have unique and well flavored drinks. On my most recent trip I ordered from the current seasonal menu. They also have fruit teas, hojicha tea, and espresso drinks. It can be helpful to check their website and see the pictures and descriptions if you're trying to decide what to choose. I had the iced jasmine matcha with oat milk and Mont Blanc foam. This is the best flavored matcha drink I've had compared to matcha drinks I've had in Japan. I watched her hand whisk the ceremonial grade powder, making it well blended and smooth. The delicate jasmine sweetness and the very citrus forward Mont Blanc foam really paired well together. The jasmine version doesn't come with that foam so I paid extra to add it, but well worth it. So delicious! In the past I used to get the earl grey milk tea and strawberry lemon green tea. I'll definitely be back, continuing to try out other drinks. I've liked everything so far from Crafti, and that's saying a lot because many boba or tea places are just too syrupy sweet for me, here it's nice flavors and sweetness.

    Quality Food, Warm Service, and Calm Ambience…read more Tiger Sugar in Mesa is one of the rare boba shops that truly solves a common problem, consistency and care. So many places rush drinks or rely on sugary fillers, but Tiger Sugar stands out because every cup tastes intentional, fragrant brown sugar, balanced sweetness, and tea that feels hand crafted instead of assembly line. The food and drinks are made with real attention. You can smell the aroma the moment they seal the cup. The brown sugar milk tea is smooth, the pearls are smaller and softer, and the organic milk gives everything a cleaner flavor that doesn't leave you feeling heavy afterward. The service is always calm, organized, and attentive. Staff listen to your order, move with purpose, and make you feel like the details matter. The ambience is peaceful and clean, even when the shop is busy. It feels like a cultural community space, families, students, and boba fans all enjoying the moment without chaos or noise. Their coffee is another pleasant surprise, rich, gentle on the heart, and brewed with the same cultural intention that makes Tiger Sugar famous. It is perfect if you want something warm and comforting that is not overly sweet. If you want a place where quality food, thoughtful service, and authentic ambience come together, Tiger Sugar is an easy recommendation. Consistent, aromatic, and made with genuine care every time.
