Chinese bubble tea place that has really good drinks!…read more Their milk teas have a nice balance of milk vs tea flavour. I've tried their no 2 and no 3 best sellers and both were really good! Highly recommend no 3, their toppings is made from the sweet fermented rice drink I love eating growing up. Service is fast and lots of seating available.

I visited this spot with my friend for the first time to try fun, unique matcha drinks…read more I ordered a plain matcha with oat milk, no sugar. My friend ordered a blueberry matcha. The matcha wasn't the best i've tried, but it was definitely unique. I took a sip of the blueberry one, it was a good, subtle taste. Not too sweet, or bitter, just the right balance. The server was kind and they served us our drinks very quickly. The seating is very cute. The ambiance is calming and cozy, with a touch of modernism. It was a great spot to study, which is exactly what we spent the next few hours doing since it was empty.

I received a text message from TP (Taiwan Professional) Tea for a free regular drink to celebrate…read moremy birthday. It was sent to me at the end of June, a few days before my actual birthday. Cool! I headed over to this TP Tea location in Vaughan. It's in a plaza near Vaughan Mills, with CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice a couple of stores down from this bubble tea joint. Got to love competition! The plaza was busy on a Saturday afternoon. I found a parking spot steps away from this store and backed into it. I walked in. I was the only customer. I saw tiramisu cakes that piqued my interest. I had wanted a fruit tea. There were two men behind the counter. One of them let me know that I could only get a regular drink. All fruit teas were large. Bummer. The regular teas were primarily milk-based. TP Tea doesn't have milk alternatives. I didn't feel like a milky drink. Instead, it was slim pickings with three teas that I could choose from. I got a signature black tea. No sugar and less ice. This regular-sized drink would have been just under $7. I was pleased that I was getting it for free. It took no time for them to make my drink. Their cups aren't transparent, but are sturdy. I thanked both men and headed out with my cold drink. The tea was excellent. It had the perfect strength. The black tea was yummy and made my day. I will return for fruit teas next time. I like large fruit teas a lot more. (251)

Standard decent quality tea from the claimed originator of boba tea in Taiwan…read more Tea flavor and toppings are better at other places, but nothing is wrong with how they do the tea and toppings here. This location is in a very large center in Vaughan for food and shopping. There's at least 3 other milk tea places next door. It's walkable from Vaughan Mills indoor mall and nearby hotels like the Aloft Vaughan Mills.

Beautiful coffee shop, terrible matcha drinks…read more Came on an afternoon to do some work and knew that this spot would have a beautiful interior. During the summer they also have patio seating just outside. Staff was friendly, the space was nice with high ceilings, and lots of people getting their caffeine here. I opted for their matcha latte which was not great, lacked matcha taste and was a pale green colour. I'm not complaining though since this is a coffee shop and I should've gotten coffee instead. Thought their other aspects of the coffee shop made up for everything else, like their free wifi, beautiful space, and good staff.

When I ordered, someone mistakenly took my drink and confused it with their order. However, the staff was super kind about it and remade my drink, with a smile on their face! As for the interior, it was very aesthetic. Definitely had to snag a picture of their set up of coffee bags! The only struggle was parking, since there's no dedicated parking spots aside from the SMART VMC (Subway station) parking, which is a bit of a pricey ticket if you're looking just to get coffee or food nearby.

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)

Ok HELLO?? The aesthetic is so zen and charming inside!! I swear Taiwanese tea shops are so calming…read moreand peaceful. And the place is so fragrant with the natural aroma of tea. While we were waiting for our drinks we sat at this really cute window nook and just took in the peacefulness. The server was very helpful with tea selections and knew which teas paired with what flavours. I got the non caffeinated tea (picture) with honey, no sugar, with grassy, and no ice. 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.

Love this store. I…read morepurchased a Nespresso coffee/espresso maker as a gift and Teresa took the time to walk me through the various features and benefits of each model. When I inquired about a return policy, she contacted John (I believe the owner) to clarify my question. I originally purchased a Pixie Nespresso (with milk frother) and decided a few hours later to change it to a different model after visiting the Nespresso website. This was handled efficiently and without any issues. Good selection of coffee makers from differing manufacturers (Saeco, Illy, etc) and Teresa knew the merits of each. She was not pushy in any way and allowed me to ask as many questions as I wanted......even offered me an espresso so I could compare quality between different companies. Friends (who live out of town and who own a Keurig coffee maker) always make a point of stopping here (when in town) to pick up assorted coffee (they sell individual cups rather than having to purchase a whole package). They say the price cannot be beat and the selection is huge. Location is in the back of a plaza and not visible from the street...but it's worth looking for.

We still occasiaonally go cuckoo for CoCo…read more At CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, if you ask me about one drink that they excel at I really don't think there is one. But they do have a decent variety of different milk tea & drink, as one of the largest global boba chains. There's something to be said for consistency, fast service and good deals. Recently their May special was the Sago Taro Milk Tea ($5.50) and which was a good entry drink with chewy sago pearls and a smooth taro tea. You've still got the usual milk teas like 2 Ladies (puddings + pearls) or 3 Guys (with grass jelly too). Their Brown Sugar Pearl drink w/ macchiato cream on top may not look stunning yet is a mouth amuser. And the Bubble GaGa is a bold passion fruit juice topped with coconut jelly & tapioca. Of the boba ordering apps, CoCo seems to have the best iPhone app which can be used to order without credit card info. Then get a text when drinks are ready, usually within 5 mins at this location! Skip it or hit it? It's a quick relatively affordable BBT option if the craving hits.

After having dinner at Ramen Isshin a few weeks back, I felt like bubble tea. When you look at the…read morelisting for this ramen eatery on Google Maps, it says that it's "across from CoCo bubble tea." The description is accurate. So, why not go there?! My friend, Nadia, was with me for dinner. She didn't need a drink, but was great accompanying me over here She brought up a Happy Lemon Yelp experience that we had years ago. She was right. Happy Lemon was where this CoCo is. It's a bubble tea joint for another one, which explains how tough it is to say afloat in the market. We were the only customers in the store. She took a seat on a rather cozy bench in front of the CoCo logo on the right. I headed up to the counter. The man who helped me with my order was great. My usual order is a large strawberry black tea (no sugar and less ice) with coconut jelly. It's my favourite drink at CoCo. No other joint does it was well as this place does. I entered my phone number to continue earning points towards free drinks and more. I then paid with a credit card. I tapped and tipped. Done! I joined my friend as he and his colleague were making my drink. They were so fast. I wasn't even seated! I was putting away my card in my wallet. The nice man said that my drink was ready. Holy! I was happy. I thanked both of them, grabbed my drink, and we both headed out the door. We said bye and headed our separate ways. I drove home sipping on my bubble tea. I absolutely loved my drink. CoCo is consistent. I've never had horrible strawberry black tea. It was perfect and yummy. It's the black tea-strawberry-coconut jelly combination that is so good. I'm glad that I dropped by to get my bubble tea fix. I should return here more often to check out the businesses in this plaza (Toro Toro Sushi is the other place that we've been to a few times) and get another bubble tea here. (200)

There's plenty of parking and a drive-through window. Food/Drinks: The classic lemonade is sweet but not ridiculously so. The lunch sandwiches are reasonably priced and taste good. They easily accommodate requests like extra crispy bacon or very little mayo. I like their rewards program, their app offers and 'roll up the rim' promotion where everyone's a winner. Okay, I usually only win 5 Tims rewards points but it's better than nothing. Environment: They provide paper straws which are better for the environment than plastic. But at this location, there are no recycling or organic bins - only waste bins. Come on Tim Hortons, you can do better!

The Mangonada was refreshing, tangy, and had a bit of heat, while the tamarind candy straw added a chewy surprise between sips. The Halo Halo was topped with creamy ube ice cream, which melted nicely into the drink as you mixed it in. It was a little tricky to mix at first since it was filled to the brim, but the combination of textures, sweetness, and nuttiness was fantastic without ever feeling overwhelming. Having the option to enjoy Bambū's unique drinks makes this location stand out. We thoroughly enjoyed everything and didn't leave a single crumb behind!

It has all the classic ingredients, but it doesn't seem like the authentic Vietnamese dessert. However, it still tasted good and I enjoyed it.
