TOTM for April is QQ Peach Juice, I asked for coconut jelly only
Vonny W.

Today was a disappointing day at Chatime... As I walked in with the intentions of trying something new for myself, a hazelnut milk tea with coffee jelly but there was a sign at the register saying they're out of a whole bunch of things, two of those being hazelnut and coffee jelly. Ended up ordering a QQ lychee juice, but of course, they were out of coconut jelly so I opted for rainbow jelly as a replacement. Drink quality was good and staff were decently efficient.

Seating at the front; this place is huuuge fam!

This newly renovated space is great: clean, spacious, and accomodates many people (there are a bunch of tables all lined up & they even have a couch waiting area for people who are just waiting for their order). They have lovely decor (a lot of orchids), yet a minimalist effect (perfect for that instagram aesthetic)! Like all Chatimes, the line can get relatively long but the service was quick and incredibly welcoming. The drinks and toppings were fresh. Located in a plaza, there is ample parking so you don't have to worry about that!

Newly opened bubble tea place. i came in for a banana slush.. they did not have any banana on the menu.. but they had other flavours. I got a peach slush and a small mango. Still good. toppings are extra (pudding,tapioca,lychee..etc) service was fast and kind. if you give your phone # you are added to a rewards system. Im glad there is a close location to my residents :)

Chatime does bubble tea right! Time and time again I receive the best drinks at this bubble tea chain. The quality is always the same. The reliability of this makes it even more appealing to me. My go to drink is the chatime milk tea with pearls. I'm fairly certain this is their top selling drink, and with good reason. Perfectly iced, filled with a deep black tea taste, and topped with delicious tapioca pearls. It's sweet, tasty, refreshing, and well worth it. It's also a great caffeine alternative to a tea elsewhere. I've tried various other "fancy" bubble tea spots, but this chain always delivers and that's why I keep coming back.

I love bubble tea and was soo excited when I found out a Chatime was opening in the plaza right by my house! There's not a lot of bubble tea places in Vaughan. When Chatime first opened they were having a promotion - buy one bubble tea get the second one for free. Was able to take advantage of this deal a few times. I usually get the green tea mango bubble tea with tapioca. It's really refreshing especially on a hot day. I've also tried the mango juice- it is good but like the mango green tea better. The classic milk tea also looks good, will try it next time I go. A large drink is from $5 to $7. One thing I like about Chatime is that you can customize the amount of ice or sugar you want in your drink. You also collect points for each purchase that can be used to redeem free drinks. You simply put your phone number in this digital screen when you order and it links to your points account. A lot of other bubble tea places require you to bring in a points or stamping card. I always forget the card at home and miss out on the points/stamp. So this system is super convenient. However, Chatime doesn't sell real fruit drinks like the Real Fruit bubble tea place. There drinks are all made from a powder.

Another new Chatime that makes Major Mack one of my key routes when I need to go from point A to point B. This one is just opening up, and has probably the nicest interior design of any Chatime I've visited so far. I stopped in during the "soft opening"period, when you would expect a bit of shakiness during the learning phase. Even so, the drinks were perfectly made to my preferences. The staff in friendly and efficient. I hope they can handle the pressure, because I think this location will be popular!

Sleek and modern renovations. They also had speedy service once ordered. The bubble tea ordered (Grass Jelly with Roasted Milk Tea) was balanced with amount of grass jelly and roast tea. Highly recommend this location!

This location is located on Weldrick and Bayview. Inside has lots of seats including a nice cabinet…read morefull of pins/crochet/keychains made by local small businesses. Absolutely a nice plus to look at while waiting for your order. Today unfortunately they did not have Tapioca which is just so sad and they also said they didn't have coconut so we couldn't order the kumquat coconut drink. This is my first time here and only time any Kung Fu Tea had no tapioca. Anyways place is pretty quick when you order your food. It wasn't a long line up or anything. I would come here again in hopes it would have Tapioca at the very least.

This bubble tea shop is quite pretty inside. It isn't the typical long and narrow rectangular shop…read morebut closer to a square. The decorations are quite nice. They had two Feb 2023 specials, with red as the primary colour for Valentine's Day. We chose the Strawberry Ice Tea with Agar Bubbles ($5.20). We rarely get egg waffles at a bubble tea store but my son wanted one so we got the Chocolate Egg Waffle ($5.00). The drink was delicious. The egg waffle was too dry; I told the manager and he thanked me for the feedback. Service was courteous with a smile. At first, the Kung Fu sign lights inside were not turned on, but once they saw we were serious about photography, they turned it on. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There is one gender-neutral washroom which is also wheelchair accessible. There is free parking in the shopping mall. Review 2023-028

A Yelp event last month introduced me to Hana's Tea. Since this first visit, I have returned twice…read morefor more good eats and bubble tea. I will admit that before discovering Hana's Tea, I rarely visited Richmond Hill for bubble tea. I do now! Two of my visits have been after work on a Tuesday. I came here with a friend on a Thursday. You can park on Yonge Street, but parking is limited. There is parking behind Hana's Tea. The sign said that it was by the church. I did the opposite and parked behind McConaghy Centre and walked over. I got the following items as part of the event experience: - Lychee ade - S'mores cookie - Yuzu lemon and tiramisu macarons I love carbonated, fizzy drinks. The fruity ade line screams me. I got the lychee ade with no sugar. As usual, most folks question my choice to go without sugar. I'm used to it. It works for me. The lychee ade was awesome. There were bits of lychee in my drink, which made this drink naturally sweet. It was cold and refreshing to sip. Pure joy! The s'mores cookie had a huge marshmallow in it. I had to get it. It was divine. The toasted marshmallow was so good. The cookie was moist and had the right amount of chocolate to make it taste like s'mores, minus the graham crackers. I'd get it again. The interior is cute and is perfect for taking photos. I used the washroom during my first visit. The decor was lovely. It was clean. No complaints. I got the tiramisu and yuzu lemon macarons for my intern. It was her last day in the office the next day. I normally like to consume macarons before gifting them. I had a good feeling about them here because the filling was abundant and thick. We have similar tastes in everything, so I felt confident about gifting them to her. I paid with a credit card. It also allowed me to tip. Yay! All three visits consisted of my receiving a small bag of candies that had bubble tea in the centre. The next day, I gave her the macarons after we were discussing a work task that she was wrapping up on Wednesday. She was so excited. She ate both of them in a span of a minute. She had the tiramisu first. She said that it was slightly sweet and amazing. She thought that it was her favourite until she had the yuzu lemon. She said that it had lemon peel that made her love this one more. She is a younger version of me when it comes to food. I returned to Hana's Tea two days later. I joined my friend, Sandy, after work on a Thursday. It was her Yelp experience. I came back as a repeat customer. One of the women remembered me. I let her know that I loved everything that I had on Tuesday. I loved everything so much that I was back to order some more, which made her happy. I got these items: - Chicken gyoza - Peach ade - Yuzu lemon and tiramisu macarons The chicken gyoza were delicious. They were crispy on the outside with a thin wrapper on each one. The dipping sauce was perfect. Each gyoza was packed with chicken that was nicely seasoned. Yummy! I loved my peach ade. I got the same question about whether I was sure about going without any sugar. I was fine. It had small bits of peach that I loved. It also had coconut jelly. A large goes for $7, which is a steal. I finally had the macarons. OMG! The tiramisu tasted just like the dessert, but in compact macaron form. It was a touch sweet, but exceptionally yummy. The lemon peel bits in the yuzu lemon were amazing. It was excellent with the perfect amount of lemon brightness. I recently returned to get more macarons, to celebrate my friend's birthday early, who also happens to be my colleague, He had just returned from Paris. I suggested that he get macarons there. He did and loved them. Yep, I got macarons from Hana's Tea. I was hoping that it wasn't a step down from his Paris experience. It wasn't! I got two of each macaron flavour: - Nutella - Crème brûlée - Yuzu lemon The two female staffers recognized me. Yep, I'm becoming a regular. I also got a strawberry coconut refresher. I got it with no sugar and less ice. The female staffer was trying to get me to add sugar. I said that the strawberry syrup was sweet, as was the coconut jelly. End of story. Staff put my macarons in a box. I also got a paper bag to put everything in. It was a nice touch. I thanked them both and headed to my car to drive home. The following day, my friend and I indulged in macarons throughout the workday. We loved all three flavours. The crème brûlée was exceptional. It tasted like custard. I loved the Nutella macaron, which had Nutella filling. It was awesome! I have found a good place that makes yummy fruity ade, gyoza, and macarons. Staff are helpful and nice. I love everything that I have consumed so far, as have my friends. It's a gem of a spot. I will say that this place promptly closes at 9 pm when my friend and I were here on a Thursday. We chatted right up until 9 pm. We got a polite announcement from a staffer that the place was closing. You have been warned! (361)

While we were waiting for our drinks we sat at this really cute window nook and just took in the peacefulness.

My wife had a mango tea with foam. Our drinks were perfect. I love that it was zero fuss. Surprisingly not very busy but we did just have a killer snowstorm. I'm definitely coming back here more often.

Tip: Get the high mountain pouchong tea with lemon juice and konjac. It's delicious!…read more After having a not-so-stellar Yelp experience at Ramin Isshin, I left the eatery with fellow Yelper friend, Jason. I felt like getting a drink. I noticed this Chicha San Chen and wanted to check it out. Jason joined me to work off some of the ramen that he had devoured. I've been to the Chicha San Chen at CF Markville. This store is at least twice as big as that location. There were plenty of places to sit down and enjoy your tea. I had a couple of fruity sparkling drinks at the CF Markville place. I was going to ask the man behind the counter if he had them. Instead, he said that he'd be back and I could look at the menu. It was delivered in a not-now-I'm-busy tone. It was odd. It's the only reason why this place doesn't get five stars. I'm so glad that Jason was with me. He said that the woman at CF Markville suggested that he get the high mountain pouchong tea with lemon juice and konjac. I decided to go with this drink. I got this drink with less sugar and less ice. I paid with my debit card on my phone. I tapped and was done. It didn't take much time for this drink to be made. It was nice chatting up a storm with Jason as we waited. The moment of truth was here. My drink was ready. I took a sip. It was awesome! The foam tasted like lemon meringue. The tea was perfect with the lemon juice. The konjac was chewy. I haven't had konjac since I visited Song Tea eons ago (rest in bubble tea peace). I wish that this drink came in a larger size. I drank it too fast... haha! I had a great experience with my friend's recommendation. I like that there's lot of parking in this plaza. I'd return again for more good bubble tea. Maybe staff will be more cheerful then. (437)

After raving reviews from a friend, Chicha San Chen skyrocketed to the top of my bbt places to try…read moreso on a trip to Markville mall, I grabbed one. First impressions, the store is clean and neat with all the teas out for display and all the employees working seamlessly to fulfil orders. It was nice to see it being made fresh right in front of us. The staff was kind and answered any questions we had. I ordered one of their recommended teas, the Oolong Ding Dong Tea latte and I really enjoyed it. The tea was strong and was balanced so well by the fresh milk. The only downside for me is it only comes in one size! The pricing is a little on the more expensive side since it does only come in the small size as well so I can't feel justified getting Chicha San Chen too often. But I do see why they won all their awards! Try it out, you won't regret it if you like a strong and balanced milk tea flavour.

Tip: The sparkling fruit drinks are amazing…read more Last month, after work, I drove directly from my workplace to CF Markville for dinner. I was craving my usual from Bourbon St. Grill and hit the food court. While heading downstairs after walking through mall entrance 3, I saw this Chicha San Chen store. I flagged it for a visit. After having a satisfying, casual meal at the food court, I returned to the second floor and walked over here to check out the drinks. It was almost as if this store knew that I like fruit and sparkling drinks. I saw a sign that said I could get two sparkling fruit drinks for $10. Three words: Sign me up! I got Kinson at the ordering area. He was great stepping me through everything. I let him know that this promotion interested me. He asked if I wanted one of each fruit flavour. Yes! My order consisted of the following: - Sparkling orange - Sparkling peach Each drink contains fruit, sparkling water, and konjac. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and I was done. He let me know that it wouldn't take long for my drinks to be made. The wait time wasn't much. The seating area had just cleared, so I could take photos of the branded throw pillows, various decorated bear figures holding tea cups in slings, and a wall celebrating a hundred years of tea love. It's my kind of tea joint. I stood next to looseleaf teas in mini containers. I smelled a number of them as I waited. They were so fragrant that I didn't want to leave! I love smelling these teas: - Cassia black - Dong ding oolong - Green - Black - Osmanthus oolong - High mountain pouchong My drinks came in one size. It seemed to be the case for all drinks on the menu. I like that you can customize your drink. There's a menu that steps you through it, from the type of tea that you want brewed, to the flavours and toppings that you want in it. If you find this method to be too complicated, it does have popular teas that are already configured, so you don't have to. I liked that I didn't have to fuss with my order. It was exactly what I wanted. My receipt had a number on it. Their system has an automated voice that calls out your order number. it was a nice change of pace. I could clearly hear my order number called out. I'm sure staff were happy to save their vocal cords, too. My drinks were on the counter. You can help yourself to a tray, which I did. My drinks looked good. What I should have done was sipped both before walking to my car. This place was so generous with the pour that my drinks were topped to the brim. One of my drinks did spill out a bit as I was about to go through the doors. Oops. I stopped to sip both of them. I was good! I got to my car and safely put my drinks down in my caddy. Just from sipping them, I loved the flavours so much. The orange one had slices of orange and chewy konjac. It was slightly sweet and fizzy. It was cheerful to drink. I had the orange slices, minus the peel, of course. Yum! The peach drink was equally as awesome. It was bubbly, with generous chunks of peach and konjac. It was fruity and chewy. So good! Both were so refreshing on a hot July evening. I'm glad that I got two drinks. I enjoyed my first two drinks from this tea place. I'll be back for more! (301)

Reviewing 2oz of Coffee (located inside Now Tea)…read more This coffee counter is known for doubling up their espresso shots in their lattes, so get ready to be well caffeinated. I arrived right when they opened, and there were already a few people waiting in line. The menu is small & curated, focusing more on the coffee than specialty flavours. However, they do have a good selection of flavoured lattes. I wasn't able to see which beans they used for the espresso, but overall, their roast seems to be a bit darker/stronger, which balances out a sweeter latte well. I tried the iced biscoff and pistachio lattes. The biscoff is slightly sweeter and nuttier - definitely my fave of the two. The pistachio latte, in contrast, was disappointing. It was $1 more than the biscoff latte, looked nothing like the photo on the counter, and didn't taste much of pistachio at all. Although it looks like a separate counter, I realized that you can order drinks from either "shop" from their one main counter. I also found it a bit confusing to figure out the hours of operation, as Google said 2oz of Coffee opens at 11am, but the Now Tea shop isn't open until 12pm.

So well balanced - can taste the lemon and lime, without over powering the taste of the osmanthus. The osmanthus was fragrant but not too sweet and not artificial tasting. The tea was super refreshing. For the price ($7) of an average drink (bubble tea, coffee, etc) this was a drink that left me feeling like they used fresh and healthy ingredients. Plus it was not a small size either! I'd come back for this drink specifically. They also have food, such as rice and noodles, which I haven't had the chance to try. But their dessert game is strong too! Got the peach resin and pear sweet soup. Can be had hot or cold. I took it home and heated it up and it still tasted fresh. They use a full large Asian pear inside. With ample and whole ingredients (jujubes, goji, snow fungus). Unlike typical restaurants that serve this dessert, they didn't skimp out on the ingredients and it tasted just sweet enough - not too bland, not too sugary. $10 sounded steep compared to the dessert shop right across the hallway of the mall, but when I saw the portion (good size to share for 2 people) and the ingredients inside it seemed the owners really put their time and effort to making their food. Such a friendly family owned business that deserves support!
