    The food is cute and palatable. The san Gabriel mountain views are amazing. The service is really quick and the host is kind. The afternoon tea the ambiance is nice. This is a really nice experience. There's a lot of food. We got two tea afternoon tea set for four people and the other two people got a personal Tea set and it's more than enough food. I really like the light floral tea, White Peony. I like the jelly too. It's not too sweet. They give samples of the tea. It's like a honey jelly. It tells you the steep times on the menu. There's at least 15 different varieties of teas for the afternoon tea. They have spicy bean curd and spicy peanuts as some savory elements. There are tea cakes and other not too sweet desserts. Taiyaki, nougat. The hojicha and oolong tea soft serve is really delicious and has good flavor. Parking is the same plaza as baekjeong and dive. Underground.

    Chaffee is located on the second floor of the "Tea Pot" plaza in Temple City on the corner of Las Tunas and Rosemead Blvd. The ambiance was quiet and relaxing. Service was really good too. The presentation was nice. What I found lacking was the food. The food quality could have been better. I would have appreciated more savory dishes and less store-bought cookies and pastries. I wanted fresh baked goods.

    Background On Visit: Recently bought the mysgv passport and felt quite happy that Chaffee is a participating vendor. Restroom: Restroom is available to use. Credit Cards: They're accepted Location/Parking: Located on the second floor of the teapot plaza on the SE corner of Rosemead Blvd. and Las Tunas. Parking can be found on the ground floor, but it would be recommended to park in the underground parking structure. Ambiance/Decor: Nice ambiance with modern asian furnishings. Plenty of seating through out the shop. Service: Kim, staffer, was friendly, attentive, and informational about the shop. My tea didn't take long to be made. Drink Of Choice: I had the 913 King Oolongs Tea. Loved the floral tea flavor and felt refreshed after drinking it. Chaffee For Thought: Would love to come back to the shop and participating in a tea making class in the near future.

    #124 in my Teaholic Diaries. Located on the second floor of the plaza, Chaffee is an elegant tea house that incorporates traditional Chinese tea culture into a modern tea experience. Their tea rooms are exquisite, and are inspired by traditional Chinese tea houses. I felt like I was in a high end jade shop, and interestingly enough, they have a teapot museum in the middle of the large establishment. In addition to selling loose leaf teas and tea ceremony cupware, they also offer afternoon tea service as well as a few select individual teas/milk teas that are brewed-to-order. I opted for the 913 King's oolong tea and the Cassia milk tea from their iced tea collection. Both drinks were smooth and mellow. The 913 king oolong tea is a signature blend of oolong with ginseng. It was vibrant in color and had a lovely sweet floral taste. My favorite of the two was the cassia milk tea, which was a little on the richer side with a malty flavor profile. Overall, I enjoyed the two drinks and would be interested in trying their other iced teas. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

    Currently if you want to book reservation for tea group it would be $65 per person. Parking: Good luck finding parking on the top floor, cause this plaza gets busy. Most of the time you'll be able to find a parking spot on the underground parking structure. Tie Guan Yin soft serve: texture was nutty like black sesame. It had a slight roasted taste to it with tea underlining. Definitely, would recommend getting their soft serve here. SGV boba passport book: I got to try their 913 King Oolongs Tea with 50% sweetness. They really hit it right on the mark with the sweetness. It was still sweet but not too sweet. Tea mix was inbetween light. Not much seating inside if there are a lot of tea serving reservations booked on the day of. Very spacious, and very beautiful if you're a tea lover like looking at tea pots, tea cups, and different tea bags to buy this is your place to drop by.

    Fun and relaxing tea experience, the snacks were tasty and the servers were nice and informative!

    Came here for the afternoon tea experience and it was amazing! The tea had 3 brews and the snacks were an arrangement of sweet and savory. The interior was a nice ambiance where modern meets traditional.

    Came last week to hang out with a friend and finally try the tea experience at Chaffee | Ten Fu's & Ten Ren's Tea Boutique. It's located upstairs in Camellia Square Shopping Plaza, right by the iconic floating teapot fountain. Walking inside felt like stepping into a traditional Chinese tea house. The space is beautifully designed with elegant décor, display cases filled with various teapots, and an impressive wall of teas available for purchase. We were led to a quiet semi-private room featuring gorgeous mahogany and cherry elm wood tables and chairs, intricate carvings, abalone inlays, and beautifully crafted wooden partition panels separating the rooms. Our room also had views overlooking a portion of Rosemead Blvd. and a nearby side street. I did have to wait a little before being greeted, but it appeared the staff member was assisting other guests in the back, so it was understandable. The menu offered a wide variety of teas to choose from, and we each selected our own pot. Alongside the tea came a beautifully presented assortment of traditional Chinese tea snacks. Everything was thoughtfully arranged, and the staff explained the proper steeping times for the first, second, and third infusions. An electric kettle maintained the perfect water temperature throughout our visit, allowing us to fully enjoy each subsequent brew. The entire experience felt relaxing, elegant, and unhurried--an excellent way to spend an afternoon catching up with a friend. The teas were enjoyable, the setting was stunning, and the service provided a nice introduction to traditional tea appreciation. My only downside was the price. At about $65 per person, I felt the tea snacks didn't quite match the premium cost of the experience. Overall, it was a fun and unique experience to try at least once, especially if you enjoy tea culture, beautiful surroundings, and a slower-paced afternoon with friends.

    I enjoyed my experience here! I did the tea experience and it comes with snacks/desserts and your choice of tea. The setting is also adorable and great for a girls hangout. Service was great and they checked in on the table.

    Chaffee tea house offers such a unique Chinese high tea experience. The set comes with 10-11 small bites with your choice of tea. The treats are quite small but cute. Their presentation is so adorable. One tip: try your tea before diving into the treats because the sweets will overpower your tea. Mine at least. I ordered Bai Hai Oolong. The interior of this tea house is also so beautifully designed. I visited on a Friday afternoon and peaceful and quiet which I love. Our server was wonderful and helped recommended options. At a $65 per person, is definitely a splurge, but for the presentation and overall experience. It's worth giving it a try!

    Chaffe tea latte.

    I love their oolong soft serve but I usually come for the Chaffee tea latte, which is an iced oolong tea with espresso and agave. Delicious! Came in today and it seems like they are finally getting more business. The main appeal is the vast collection of teas and you can even relax in one of the many rooms with a nice aerial view of temple city, haha. Very good, quick and friendly service! 5 stars.

    Tieguanying soft serve
    Vicky H.

    Beautiful interior and service was very good! We went in just for the soft serve. Even though both types of oolong (913 and Tieguanying) were on the menu they only had matcha and Tieguanying. The oolong flavor in the soft serve was really good - fragrant and strong but not overly so to where it's bitter. My only note is that the day we went the ice cream was a bit crystallized and the whole dessert was full of tea sediments which I was told is not typical. Personally I wouldn't serve something if it was not the normal standard. I still give it a 4 due to flavor and because I could see the potential. I hope to go back to solidify the review.

    Hidden Gem located upstairs in temple city's teapot plaza. Teas from everywhere, tasting rooms, tea tasting programs. Great selection of hot and cold premium teas. Reserve your group tasting in the private rooms. Very nice decor super stylish. Soft serve match green tea and also affogato available. Espresso based drink menu too for coffee lovers.

    I was very impressed by the menu options. It had flavors I had never seen anywhere else and I loved…read morethat they had some flavor combinations that were preset so I didn't feel rushed to choose my own. Aidan was very friendly and explained everything very patiently. Service is amazing, which adds a lot to the whole experience. Thanks for making our first visit a great one!

    A+ all around for the nostalgic retro decor, asian-loved ice cream flavors, being open late night,…read moreand their amazing team members for their service. Kinda makes me think, "Is this where all the cool kids go?" said by: definitely not a cool kid me. My gal friend and I always want dessert and believe life is always better with sweets. It was around 9 pm already, and of course, we wanted something sweet to end our day. The plaza on Duarte Rd is pretty dark, but 626 Ice Cream was the bright corner filled with tons of people in line, even at 9 pm. They have their posted in a few spots in the line so customers can check out the flavors. My friend was happy there is something non-dairy for her, which was the Mango Sago flavor. They seem to change up their ice cream flavors every now and then I noticed, which is so fun! It was our first time here, and the man who helped us was very sweet in letting me try all the 6 flavors and pick my favorite. I ended up with their Cereal Ice Cream flavor which tasted like a childhood milk & cereal breakfast, the sweet milk you drink after you finished your cereal. I thought "wow!" This was totally it and I fell in love with it. I also want to mention their Yakult flavor was amazing as well; it's the perfect tartness I love in Yakult drinks and had just a teeny bit of sweetness to it. It's great for those friends you may have in your life who just want a little bit of sweetness. Their toppings are so fun, and I would just go back for their toppings to be honest. I asked the team member to choose my toppings for me, you get 3 toppings if you get the mini cup size. So I got red bean, cacao nibs, and mochi. I would come back to eat this combination over and over again. My friend got a Mango Sago flavor, it's non-dairy, with Mochi and Fruit. She loved it as well and I got to try some of it - it packs a punch in mango flavor and is soooo good with their mochi! There is cozy seating inside, or you can totally be a cool kid and pick up one of those stools outside and sit in the parking lot. So nostaligic almost like a backyard party. Thank you 626 Ice Cream for existing and being in the neighborhood! I'll definitely come support more often!

    Dessert spot that specializes in soft serve and taiyaki. I came in at a time when it wasn't busy,…read moreso my service was really quick and friendly. The place was pretty chill as well. I had just eaten dinner so I've kept it pretty simple here. I ordered the swirl with pure milk and pineapple dole whip. A simple yet tasty and satisfying combo. The serving size was pretty generous, especially relative to the price. Just a great place to grab some quick soft serve in the area.

    It looks aesthetically appealing in their photos online but it wasn't as good as it looked. Saw…read morethis off Yelp so decided to try it. We were the only customers. The girl working the counter was a young girl just getting by her summer day job. She was nice but timid. It was our first time there and a little more energy on her end could've been better. Ordered the ube swirl, pineapple dole whip, mung bean taiyaki, and a custard one togo. The taiyaki that goes onto the ice cream is a lot bigger than one we ordered to go. I thought it would be as big, but when I got it, it was so much smaller and flat. Also, the taiyaki that goes on top of the ice cream was old. It had been sitting there for a while or was made earlier as it was hard and difficult to bite. The red bean inside I also assumed was a paste like how they make the Japanese version, however there were whole pieces in there. It was okay, but I thought they'd be like paste. Overall, the only thing that was good was the ube swirl and the pineapple dole whip. It was also extremely warm in the shop, like no AC in the triple digits summer heat. Had to eat it elsewhere. I most likely won't be back.
