Place is really nice and pretty. The person working there was very nice and humble. I ordered a grapefruit tea and asked for no ice, but my drink came with a full amount of ice. Maybe they forgot to look at the label because they were tired since we came 20min before close... but still sad.. (wanted to drink it the next day without it being watered down..) read more

Chatime - Asked for no ice... got full ice for my grapefruit tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

My rating is 3.5 stars. This Chatime is located in a highly busy plaza. My student and I witnessed a minivan plow into a concrete barrier as we were walking over to Kenzo Ramen, steps away from Chatime. We both heard a crunch and knew that it wasn't good. The minivan, a minute later, drove towards us. We saw a huge crack going down the front bumper. I parked at the back of this plaza, where there is a store that sell diapers and adult incontinence pads. There used to be a Goodwill store, but a few new businesses have taken over. Anyway, after my student, a colleague, and I had finished eating a late lunch at Kenzo Ramen last Friday, we headed over to Chatime. I had a free birthday drink waiting for me. I decided to use it towards a regular QQ lychee juice, which comes with tapioca and coconut jelly. I didn't know where to line up after placing my order. I finally figured it out when I saw the small ledge through the huge lineup. I like that you can purchase reusable straws that come with a cleaner. I want to get the purple one. Each kit goes for $5. My drink was ready. I got it, and drove my student and I back to the office. The lychee juice was great. I managed to suck a tapioca ball the wrong way and went into a coughing fit in my car. Luckily, my student knows CPR and didn't have to administer it on me. I now realize that tapioca can be hazardous to your health. Anyway, the tapioca and coconut jelly were delightful when eaten safely and properly! I don't normally visit Chatime, but will definitely go back. I finally found a drink here that I love, minus choking on the tapioca. (209) read more

I love this location so much! The staff are awesome and I have been a regular for about 2 years but this summer Chatime finally announced dairy free options for us lactose-free, dairy-free folk! I no longer have to restrained in my order options (even though chatime does have other amazing options on their cold teas, slushes and juices!) I ordered the cold brown sugar oat milk tea with tapioca. I love oat milk and find it complements the brown sugar flavour very well :) Ps. It is an extra charge of $0.75 cents for the oat milk substitution. read more

Chatime - A brown sugar oat milk tea with tapioca - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

This bubble tea is absolutely amazing! They added so much tapioca that I actually felt full after finishing it. The only downside was that I had to rush to the washroom right afterward. read more

This particular location was pretty chaotic on a late Saturday night. The store itself is a decent size with a couple of tables but the shop itself is a bit narrow, so when there's a big lineup of people waiting to order, it can get a bit claustrophobic. The restaurant itself is clean, but the staff are not the most efficient unfortunately. I ordered on standard pearl milk and I was waiting almost 10 minutes. Overall, its a decent location, just with slow service. Parking is also a bit tight in this plaza. read more

**DURIAN MILK TEA POST** From April 1 - April 7, durian milk tea is being served at select locations.. the Mississauga location being one of the lucky ones. You have the option for: (1) regular durian milk tea, or (2) durian roasted milk tea. I got to cha time the first day of this promotion and tried the durian roasted milk tea, 50% sugar, with grass jelly. Conclusion: I like it!! Add this to the permanent menu! What can I say, I'm a fan of this new drink! It has that distinct yellow colour of durian drinks and I was quite satisfied with the taste. I'm not a durian connoisseur, but I really think it tastes pretty close to the real thing. I let a few of my friends who eat durian more than I do try some, and they seem to really like it as well. At 50% sugar, I found it a little sweet for my liking - order this drink a sugar level down if you want it to suit your typical sugar preference as this drink does taste pretty sweet. The promotion is still ongoing for a few days, so definitely try this out before it ends! read more

Been here a few times, and I think it's one of the better Chatimes in town (the other franchises are something of a hit or miss). My friend was so kind enough to treat me to a drink (even though I told her she didn't have to!). She ordered the lychee tea with aloe vera (less ice and sugar), which was quite refreshing and slightly sweet. The aloe actually tasted kind of lychee! I got the taro milk tea (no ice and less sugar), which was quite creamy and milky. While this isn't the place to go to when you're craving the artificial flavour of taro powder, it still tastes quite good with its actual taro chunks and bits! read more

Chatime - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Today was Chatime's grand opening and I was super excited it was in Mississauga. A friend and I arrived around 1 pm and were able to get their BOGO coupon. It wasn't super packed as I thought it would be but still quite busy during the weekday afternoon. I ordered the grass jelly roasted milk tea and my friend got the pearl milk tea. The drinks took about five minutes to make which isn't that long compared to Bubble Republic. Both of our drinks tasted great and did not differ from their other locations. Also, they sell donuts too. The interior decor is nice and modern. There are about 10 tables in Chatime that you can sit at. I'm glad that there is a Chatime near my area where I can grab bubble tea! read more

ordering the drinks was very difficult as the microphone makes the severs voice so hard to understand. the drinks were good but we also purchased macarons for $3 each. The staff look through the macarons and not only handed me one that was significantly smaller than the rest but it was also cracked! a waste of $3 read more

Chatime - a cup of iced coffee, macarons, and a bag of ice cream - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Another global bubble tea chain just like CoCo fresh juice. the rating this location gets a 3 star because of the horrible parking but 4 stars for their drinks. They are situated in the same plaza as Canada Computers on Burnhamthorpe. They also offer a check-in coupon when you check-in but I opted to try a special which is the marble roasted milk tea. This drink is made with fresh cake whipping cream smeared around the cup and filled with roasted milk tea. To be honest I couldn't really taste the difference between with or without the cream. I normally just ordered the roasted milk tea with bubble and grass jelly. read more

Chatime - Marble roasted milk tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

3.5 stars ... its actually good for Mississauga but I felt this particular location was chaotic with the parking and it's a bit slow. Chatime is another international big brand for bubble tea that landed in the GTA. I knew of Chatime when it first went into the GTA East and I've seen it a few times in busy spots like Square One. I totally forgot it was in Mississauga until my yelp search had it pop up. This location is just ... crazy. It's a strip mall off the super busy intersection of Mavis and Burnhampthorpe. Even on a late afternoon before the after dinner rush, the parking lot was completely filled and there was a constant rush of cars coming in and out. The store itself is one of the larger spots I've seen... there's at least 10 tables where you can sit after ordering. The decor is the brand standard of white walls, light wooden touches, and the bold purple as being the key colour. The ordering area was busy with a few people... maybe 2 people in the line up before us. There was a decent amount of staff. I spied at least 5 different people. Service here is not quite efficient. For that many staff, I would hope teas would be made quicker than waiting around for 10 minutes. Even the people before us with an order of one tea... still at least 10 minutes. One thing I did think was cute... they've got a promo right now. For an order of 2 drinks, you get a lucky 'purple' pocket with different prizes. We got the basics of buy one get the second for $0.88. It's a nice touch for the upcoming Chinese New Year. Chatime milk tea (hot) - I've had a few hot milk teas from the past few brands. I felt this one was a bit more diluted than the other stores out there. Though I got this half sweet, it was still a kick of sugar with a lighter black tea flavour. I like if it had more of a robust black tea so this one was good but not great. 3.5/5 Coffee Slushie - Another decent drink but I found here the flavour wasn't as good as others spots in the GTA West. A touch too light on the coffee flavour. At 30% sweetness, this was one of the more balanced drinks. I know this is a slushie so you have to use ice to make it a slush but I found this was a lot of iced used. I felt they just overloaded it with possibly too much ice... after finishing off the drink, there was ice slush half the cup size left in it. 3.5/5 Chatime milk tea with boba - Similar to the hot chatime milk tea, its a pretty decent tea with a lighter flavour. I think there was a good amount of bubbles given and if anything, I probably finished the drink before the bubbles. The bubbles was actually nicely cooked... chewy and touch sweet. 3.5/5 Brown Sugar milk tea - I honestly couldnt tell that much of a difference from the chatime milk tea. I felt this one was just maybe a touch more of a caramel flavour that the regular chatime milk tea. Similar to the others... definitely lacking on the good tea note. It was good but could be better. 3.5/5 Overall, its a decent spot but only during the slow times... I cannot imagine trying to get in and out of this place (and the store) when it's dinner time or right after dinner. It would be a crazy nightmare and the wait for parking and your drink would be crazy. read more

There are better bubble tea places. They go through so much staff, the new employees don't know their own menu. They overcharge, the orders are always wrong - peak and even off-peak times. And when you point out the mistake/overcharge to them, they shrug it off! Somehow this location always seems to be the anomaly among the others in its franchise. Mississauga has an abundance of bubble tea joints now. There are better places out there. Save yourself the hassle. Go somewhere else. read more

Chatime - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Literally the worst customer service I've ever experienced. They're rude, unwelcoming and make you feel like you are actually a nuisance in their life. I've been multiple times and had various people take my order but I've had the same terrible experience. Once I asked for a drink with coconut and I guess they were out/didn't have any so I asked for a similar drink or something else they'd recommend. The cashier taking my order just stared at me.. didn't say anything. I thought "maybe she didn't hear me?" So I asked again. She suggested the drink I had originally ordered minus the coconut. Helpful. The second time I went I could barely hear the cashier so when I asked her to clarify the price I saw her literally roll her eyes before clarifying. This location is full of bored kids that hate their lives and don't want to work here. I always leave feeling like I shouldn't have spent my money there... However, their drinks are good. I still go because I like their drinks and they're the closest bubble tea option for me which is why I bumped this review from a 1 to a 2 star but I actually can't stand the employees. Management either needs to get some proper training in there for just hire some fresh new and exciting people that can elevate the customer experience, not kill it. read more

Not as good as I remember it. I got the taro 30% sweet and it was still super sweet. I do like the texture of the taro though cause I think they blend real taro into it. Also the service wasn't great. I felt like it was run by teenagers who didn't really care about the customers and we're too busy hanging out with each other read more

Chatime - Grass jelly roasted milk tea with pearls - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

First time trying Chatime; I'm a huge fan of bubble tea but usually I stick to a handful of drinks like taro milk or green tea matcha bubble tea or original flavour bubble tea. I've never really tried the juice/tea-type drinks. Well, I decided to try my first one today because of the Yelp 50% off the mango twist offer. I'd say the drink was solid. I generally like mango, the sweet mango I mean, but not so much the sour mango flavour which this drink was. It wasn't too bad though and the tapioca pearls were just how I liked them - chewy. They were generous with the pearls as well, which I was very happy with. When I came (Sunday afternoon), the store was nearly empty. The drink came out very quickly, within a minute and when I got it they forgot the pearls, which they noticed almost instantly and quickly fixed. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with my first trip to Chatime as well as my first non-milk bubble tea. I'm only giving it a 3/5 rating for now since I have only tried the mango twist here. There wasn't anything wrong with it, it just wasn't really my taste. I'll be back to try some of the bubble tea flavours I'm more familiar with so I can give a better, updated review. read more

This is the most inefficient chatime I've ever been to. I am a huge fan of chatime normally, and expect that on weekends it can get busy. However, the operation of this chatime was just a complete mess. It was almost painful to watch the staff struggle to complete the orders behind the counter. Everyone was getting into everyone's way, drinks were spilling left right and centre, and it was a complete chaos. Honestly, there weren't even a lot of people, there was no line up to order. The staff on duty were just particularly inefficient... they probably could use some assembly line training... We waited forever for our one simple pearl milk tea. The funny thing is the staff also likes to withhold the drinks so that they can give out all the drinks order in chronological order. Shouldn't they be making drinks in the order that they were received anyway? Seems like a huge waste of everyone's time... Good thing I don't live in Mississauga. I would never want to come back to this location. read more

3 stars for the location but 5 stars for the bubble tea drinks Chatime bubble tea is one of my favourite bubble tea chains, this Chatime location not so much because gets pretty busy during the business hours especially on weekends. The parking lot is always full because of Kinton Ramen located a few doors down. The store has good amount of tables for groups to hang out and is kept fairly clean even with the busy turnover. Line ups here can get ridiculous at times and tends to move slowly, you could be waiting for over 15 minutes to order and another 10 minutes to get your order. My favourite drinks at Chatime is the Roasted Grass Jelly Milk tea, Pearl Milk tea and QQ Taiwan Mango Juice. This locate does have a check in offer but each time you use it, the cashier seems to forget how to punch the order in. If you love bubble tea, definitely give Chatime a try if you haven't done so already. But this location gets really really busy which can be frustrating when you just want to grab a quick drink. read more

Best bubble tea spot I've been to in the GTA. Always consistent and great bubble tea. They're having their 5 year anniversary, and to celebrate they have the SUPERCUP.

Chatime first opened in Toronto in 2011 with their Bay & Dundas location and since then has expanded to 8 stores in Mississauga, North York, Markham, Richmondhill, Pacific Mall and Waterloo! It's no surprise to me that this brand is such a success because it is a very innovative in terms of their modern store, branding, ability to customize, and being highly interaction with their customers on social media; all the while staying true to their product by brewing only high quality tea leaves sourced in Taiwan. What sets apart Chatime from other bubble tea brands is the ability to customize your toppings (pearl, pudding, grass jelly, aloe vera, coffee jelly & the list goes on), sugar level as well as ice level. Customization is crucial to customer satisfaction these days. Until last week, my go-to drink at this chain was the Red Bean Milk Tea, but I learned that there's so much more to Chatime ... so much more to get a taste of! We were spoiled with a bubble tea tasting and now, I will definitely need to go back for the new drinks I've tried. Interesting Drinks to try: - The Mousse Drinks really stood out to me! The mousse topped on top of the cold bubble tea reminded me of having that extra foam on your latte. - The Fresh Tea/Tea Espresso Drinks, specialty tea brewed to order, are refreshing and light to take on the go with no dairy. My fave was the Japanese Sakura Sencha! - The Energetic Mix Drinks (special Taiwan health drinks) - They also serve coffee! read more

New location in Mississauga, finally! We arrived at 8pm on a Sunday and the lineup began outside. I didn't mind the wait but it ended up being 30 minutes. I ordered QQ Grapefruit Juice and it was fantastic. Found a new favorite! We sat down together and enjoyed our drinks. Even though it was busy, there was lots of available seats because most people take the drinks to go. If you're in the area and craving bbt, check this location out! read more

Chatime - Bubble tea and points card!! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

First stop on my "Order the Yelp!" list. At 9 pm the parking lot was crowded and the line up was to the door. Very busy and noisy place, most people were ordering to go. Looks like I'm in for a wait so I have a seat on their comfortable loooooong couch after placing my order. It actually took about 15 minutes to get in and out of that place, not too bad at all for efficiency. My Order: Mango Twist (added tapioca pearls for extra 50 cents) total $3 plus tax for a large. Description: "Infusing Chatimers' all-time favourite Taiwan Mango Juice into sweetened milky yogurt produces a wonderfully well-balanced fruity summer symphony - entrancing enough to keep you coming back for more" Expectation: I thought this would be a sweet, slightly thick drink Reality: It was not thick at all. It was a combination of sweet and sour tastes which kinda grew on me. I'm glad I added the tapioca pearls because it added texture and sweetness to it. My drink was warm so I had to swirl my drink around a number of times so that the ice could cool it down. Conclusion: If I'm in the area and in the mood for bubble tea AND they're running a special then I would be inclined to check out more of their menu. If you're a frequent customer they do have a rewards program. read more

Was stopping by Mississauga, and wanted my bubble tea fix. Decided to get the new twilight series, tried the grapefruit blush. The presentation is very nice with the colour blend. However they don't recommend toppings because it will disturb the colour and not look good. It tastes like a grapefruit tea, and missing something without a topping, very plain. Interesting concept though. Clean inside, friendly staff. read more

Chatime - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

4/5! Chatime is finally in Mississauga!!! I went in the afternoon and it wasn't too busy, pretty good actually. My friend ordered two supersize roasted milk teas with taro and I ordered a hot taro milk tea (sick person here) and it was sooooo good. Tastes really creamy and rich so I'm actually still sipping on it. You get to choose your sugar level (110%, 100% normal, 80%, and so on) and if you wanna add anything (taro, peaches, etc). I got a regular and after tax it was $4.75. In terms of bubble tea quality in comparison to other chains, I like Chatime a bit more cause of their ingredients and their taste. Granted, I haven't tried the cold bubble tea from this location but I did in Toronto. Bubble republic is still pretty good but bubble tease is too watered down for me. Anyway, I would recommend hitting up Chatime when you can. Lots of combinations to choose from! read more

Chatime - Hot taro milk tea. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I have been here before many times and I do love the flavour and quality of there bubble tea and tapioca. I would like to think I'm the ultimate taro slush queen and the advocate mango slush expert and only recently with in the last 2 years have I ventured outside of the taro slush and mango slush. Chatime is definitely a top three bubble tea joint of choice. Again the freshness and quality of their bubble tea is great :) My biggest turn offs however is the last two times I have been their machine for slushies has been broken as the waits are long. Other than that I'm good :) read more

Chatime - They had no slush today :( - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

-- My First Impression -- I have been to this Chatime several times. I don't really enjoy my visit a lot because they always mess up my order. Since Yelp is hosting the "Order the Yelp" event, I thought it was a perfect time to revisit them and order the Yelp drink. The associates in the store didn't seem to know the promotion at all. I showed them my check in and told them I would like to redeem the 50% off promotion. They told me there was no such promotion. I showed them my Yelp check in and told them I would like to order that drink. They still insisted they didn't have that drink, but still they honoured my discount. It seems that they never have what I want to order: 1. There was no Yelp Drink (as per all store associates) 2. They didn't have strawberry kiwi juice that day 3. They didn't have tapioca at that time and required extra waiting time for them to make the new batch. -- Food and Drink -- 1. Taiwan Mango QQ Juice (I was trying to order the "Order The Yelp!" drink - Mango Twist, since they claimed they didn't have their drink, they made the Taiwan Mango QQ Juice for me). The juice was surprisingly refreshing and wasn't too sweet. Since we got a fresh batch of tapioca, the tapioca was quite soft. 2. Grapefruit QQ Juice - I found this drink was just average compared to other chatime branches. They added too much water in it. -- Overall -- I have a feeling this store is always running out of inventory. They have trouble maintaining the quality of their drinks (sometimes their drinks are overly-sweet, sometimes they are watered down). Not a fan of this Chatime. I would only come back if my friends/family want to get a bubble tea here. read more

Chatime is still my favourite bubble tea spot, but OMG what is up with the service in here? I came here over the weekend and the line up was out the door. Ummm...it's winter. I waited in line for about 15-20 minutes and by the time I came closer to the counter I noticed a tiny sign that read, "NO TAPIOCA". Are you kidding me? What is a bubble tea without tapioca. So I left. I let the other people in line know there wasn't any tapioca and half the line up was out the door. No surprise here. Hey Chatime, if there is no tapioca - it would be nice to let your customers know with a BIG sign that claims that. Maybe a sign by the door or stuck on the top where the tea menus are. It's a huge waste of time waiting in line, *especially* in the dead of winter, to only be disappointed with such non sense. Also, 2 registers would be a great help too! read more

Just an update as a spent a few hours there, enjoying my drink inside this new tea house, and have more information: 1. Who knew there were soo many Asian youths in 'ssauga? This city is turning into Markham/Richmond Hill! 2. If the line is out the door, expect to wait approx. 30-35mins. Then approx. 10 more minutes for your order. The past coupla nights I've driven by, there has ALWAYS been a line outside! 3. This place is LOUD. Not BR loud, but let's just say that this probably isn't the place to bring your laptop, use their free wifi, and get some studying/work done. You could have a conversation, but background music is blasting, and other people's convos are pretty distracting. 4. I believe they have free wifi, but it is password protected. I didn't bother to ask for their p/w. 5. If you decide to enjoy your drink inside, they will still give you a disposable cup. Not sure that I like the idea of unnecessary, added waste. 6. Flavour of tea could be a bit stronger. (I mean you are paying $5 for a regular...which is like an expensive Starbucks!) I had a warm Jasmine green milk tea last night and I was barely able to taste the Jasmine. 7. Closes at 12AM. My people DON'T sleep!!! read more

Location Modern, albeit small, space. Shared parking with the computer store beside it. Gets busy during weekends. Service Maybe we came at night, but the staff seem pretty aloof. It wasn't busy when we went, but we felt rushed when ordering. Food Well, Chatime is one of the good bubble tea shops -- no doubt about that. Loved the roasted milk tea and genmaicha tea -- hot or cold. Overall Really a 2.5, rounding off to 3. Need to work on service, but still a good hangout spot for your bubble tea fix. read more

Yay! My friend told me about chatime's grand opening on Friday so I just had to go. This new location is nice, clean and friendly. I ordered the Chatime Roasted Milk Tea with coconut jelly, no ice and regular sugar. It was the perfect amount of sweetness for me and I will definitely come back. I used to go to the downtown location but it was too far. Thank goodness that they opened one in Mississauga. The pricing is reasonable, roughly $5.30 for a large drink. They also have free Wi-Fi unlike other Bubble tea places. I used to go to Bubble Republic for Bubble tea but recently, they changed their menus, increased the prices, and downgraded their food and drinks. Now that chatime's opened, I probably won't be visiting br for a while. All I can say is great bubble tea! Only thing stopping from giving it 5 stars is their Service. Maybe because they're just starting out but, their Service is slow. I went again today and waited in line for around 10 mins, ordered then waited for another 20 mins or so to get my drink. read more

Order: Original bbt (wanted the salted foam bbt but they ran out) Pros: + multiple locations globally speak to its international success and popularity + huge variety of flavors + strip mall parking Cons: - Long line ups. An hour long wait on a Monday evening?! You have got to be kidding me - this branch is not stocked to cater to demands. If there are such long line up a on A MONDAY, how are you not stocked to have the original drink I wanted? - they don't have much of a variety of bubble tea flavors with the savory milk foam option I have been drinking chatime since the first location opened up in Toronto. Long lines are not uncommon, I've waited 20-30 minutes in the past. I was not at all impressed by this location. You're better off going to bubble republic in Mississauga (the town's staple bubble tea hot spot). read more

Chatime - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Now, as someone who has grown up in a non-Asian community, bubble/green tea shops is not part of my life. In most Asian communities around Canada, green tea and bubble tea is sold regularly and drank religiously (maybe I'm exaggerating but the point still remains). Personally, I've never heard of Chatime prior to my visit. So, today I'm embracing my Chinese roots and decided to try Chatime. After indulging a tasty ramen noodle soup, I decided a sweet drink would finish my meal perfectly. This particular location is situated in strip mall, filled with Chinese restaurants and other Asian shops. The facade stood out as trendy and alive, distinguishing itself from the other shops. As I step through the threshold and into Chatime, the first thing I notice is the ambient vibe of the atmosphere. The decor was designed with a hip, modernized, teenage setting made for the 21st century. A waitress, wearing an apron and glasses stood behind the counter, with two other waitresses already mixing drinks. The line ups were generally short. The menu was vast and wide in variety, consisting of green teas, healthy shakes and side toppings to top the drink off. I order the lychee green tea, with no tapioca or any extra toppings. I step off to the side into another line to pick up my drink. The wait time was excruciatingly long. Line ups began to form behind me, as I patiently and eagerly waited for my drink. The waitresses, in a frenzied pace, hastily mixed and blended ingredients together into the delicious green tea. A waitress handed me my drink. I left the shop with my drink and quietly sat in my car in silence. I stared directly at the cup that laid before my eyes. I raised my cup slowly, placing the straws slowly into my mouth and pressing my lips down slowly. I sip slowly, and swallowed the sweet liquid in my mouth. I started to grin heavily like a fool. The sweet taste of lychee and strong flavors of green tea balanced perfectly. The drink was ice cold, giving me brain freeze that shook my entire body. I sipped the final drops in my cup, savoring every flavor. However, my only criticism was the drink was not mind- blowing, staying within the same chapters of its contemporaries. Although Chatime is not perfect, nor anything special, the entire experience left a good first impression. Hence the reason why I will recommend you visit Chatime and get your Cha-Cha-Cha going (forgive my atrocious humor. I should stop :) ). I digress. If you visit, you might see me here purchasing another green tea. [I have drank bubble tea and green tea in the past, but not frequently. Hence the reason why I wrote, "nothing mind blowing."] read more

The ginger snap milk tea was pretty good and ginger-snappy; loved it!
