    Brought the fam jam for a special treat out. Unfortunately, they were out of sago bubbles and didn't have 1/2 of the other stuff we asked for. Pretty disappointed given that this is a bubble tea house and you are paying a premium for a drink. My fave here out of our group was the Earl Grey Salted Milk Top. The yogurt bubbles were okay... I think it would have been much better with sago. The inside is bright with numerous seating options and they've got a little shelf with games (though it was empty when we were there). They do offer a few snack food options - thought there was signage over some pics saying "not offered at this location." Um, then why have the picture and the sign? Also, be prepared to wait here. People were lined up out the door when we were leaving about 10pm. Someone commented that they waited about 30 minutes and I was like uh-oh, I hope they are okay with being out of sago bubbles :-( Can't say I'd make it a priority to come back here given the fact that there are at least a dozen other options in town for bubble tea.

    Sustainable straws!

    You can't go wrong with Dream Tea. I've always had a 5/5 experience at this location. My favourite boba here is the "Dream" (fitting)! It is a mixture of Taro and Coconut with tapioca pearls and lychee jelly. If that doesn't get you going I don't know what will, seriously. Its amazing. The boba is always pretty big as well - don't worry I always finish it. Service is great and the boba is usually ready really fast. I find if you come around 3PM it's usually not too busy. I've found it to be very busy during about 5 PM. There is a seating area and they also serve some snacks like fries and onion rings if you feel like staying. I often see people here just hanging out. One thing that I noticed recently that I really loved was that they've moved towards more sustainable straws! I thought this was awesome. I've never seen this at any other place before, so I'm happy to support Dream Tea if they're making an effort to be more eco-conscious! :)

    Taiwanese chicken bento box ($10.99)

    Dream Tea House has FOUR locations now? Seriously, whyyyyyyyy. Located in the sadly departed digs of Bistro Saison (RIP you rare French bistro), they've done some renovations but randomly kept the Eiffel tower mirage. I was wondering why there was French inspired design on the walls but don't worry, it all makes sense now. The inside is pretty spacious compared to most bubble tea places in town. Quite modern and clean looking with a few booths and tables set up. I should probably confess that I've never been a big fan of Dream Tea even though they've been around for years. Mediocre and overrated in my books. But after going out for dinner with the 'ol squash team, we got screwed trying to go to Dessert Island(their hours aren't the best - queue sad face) so we weren't left with many alternatives for a late night hang out. The Oliver Square location has a hugeeeeeee menu. But seriously, what's with the prices? It's almost $7 for a fresh fruit bubble tea. That's just absurd. - 2x Dream, mango tango, red bean and cap tea ($5.25 each) - let's see, two of my buds went with the Dream (taro mixed with coconut) which comes with tapioca and lychee jelly. I went with the mango tango (mango and pineapple) and subbed for grass jelly. Red bean is pretty straightforward and cap tea is a new item on their menu (dare I say copying Gama Café). My bubble tea was pretty meh. Like I said, it's pretty sad that there's no one in town that can make a quality BBT. Business opportunity?! - Taiwanese chicken bento box ($10.99) - came with rice, salad, Taiwanese chicken, and yam fries. The chicken was lightly seasoned and surprisingly done well. Salad was as my friend put it, a bunch of lettuce pieces. Pretty sad effort there. Yam fries were okay but could have used more time in the deep fryer. But hey, who comes for real food at a bubble tea shop? Grab as a snack only. Honestly, quality bubble tea just doesn't exist in Edmonton. Do yourself a favour and skip out on Dream Tea's. So meh.

    Bubble tea time

    I'm getting right into bubble tea! Each time I order a different flavour because I'm trying to find my favourite. This time I tried avocado and it's by far the best I've had. So filling and yummy! The avocado is sweetened just the right amount and the tapioca balls were fresh and chewy. I ordered my 2 year old her first bubble tea, the mango flavour. She thought getting the balls was a funny game and enjoyed it. My hubby tried the butter beer bubble tea. This one was too sweet for me, but he was happy with his choice. The place itself was quite aside from our table playing games, chatting and enjoying our beverages. We also ordered two portions of fries which they put into one basket. The portions were small but it was only a dollar when you order a bubble tea on a Tuesday to add fries to your order. Quite a good deal actually. So far tastiest bubble tea for me, the decor wasn't much to write about although I did appreciate the couple of sofas they had for chilling with groups. When you park outside you need to remember to add your licence plate to the digital tracker they have at the cashier. Otherwise you'll get a ticket. I'll defo be back to try more!

    Shrimp Tempura. Tasty, and nice dipping sauce.

    I am not a fan of bubble tea, but I was introduced to Dream Tea by a friend, who very much likes their Green Onion Cakes. She asked me to stop by to pick up an order to add to a dinner menu. That was a Sunday, about 5:30PM, and the place was not very busy. I waited in line for about 10 minutes while the counter staff muddled through the ordering process, which gave me time to peruse the menu, which is surprisingly large for a tea shop. I determined to come back and try some of the food at a future date. I eventually ordered and received my G.O. cakes, and they were well cooked and tasty. This simple transaction took about 20 minutes in total. Fast forward to yesterday, I was in Oliver and considering a bite and a coffee. I recalled Dream Tea had a large coffee menu, and figured I would try a couple of dishes and a Latte. I went in at about 2 PM and the place was busy and loud, with a lot of backpacks and electronics. It appears to be popular with the McEwan crowd. I got in the long line-up to the counter, which again gave me an opportunity to check out the menu. I decided on Shrimp Tempura ($5.95) and Spring Rolls ($3.95) As step by painful step I inched my way to the front of the line, it became apparent that a new counter person was being trained, and more attention was being paid to said training than to the growing line. When I reached the counter I placed my order only to be told, "No spring rolls..." I said, "Fine. Just the tempura and the Latte, please. The coffee order seemed to have them confused and flustered and I got the impression they do not sell much coffee. I was given a pager disk, and found myself an empty booth. The Shrimp Tempura came in good order, with 5 pieces served in a small fry basket, with dipping sauce. The portion size was decent and worth the price. Still no sign of my Latte... When I got called for my coffee, I went up to the counter to get it, but could not find a spot with sugar, and napkins, etc. When I asked I was told, "No sugar..." They offered to get me some in the kitchen, but my notion that they serve little coffee was supported. I said,"That's ok." and returned to my table. The tempura was tasty and enjoyable and helped fill the gap. My Latte was well made and as good as most, sugar not withstanding. This is a nice little place, though you can tell that there was not much investment, as one whole wall is a mural of Paris, left over from the ill fated French Bistro that preceded Dream Tea. One also gets the impression that the owners/operators do not have much restaurant experience. There is no flow or efficiency in their system, with the exception of the kitchen. Both dishes I have eaten were quite good, but the ordering and expediting needs much work. The staff, however inefficient, were pleasant and helpful and the place was clean. I consider it unlikely I will be returning.

    Jasmine green milk tea with tapioca
    Maria L.

    We visited this Dream Tea house location after sushi dinner and a walk around the area. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had expanded their menu. Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Overall pleasant atmosphere. It was not too busy or loud; overall clean. We didn't stay too long as we decided to take our drinks out to walk around the area. Good location and adequate parking. Food / drink: 3.5/5 I was happy to see that they had expanded their milk tea menu to include types of tea other than the standard original black and green tea. This time, I decided on the Jasmine milk tea with tapioca but no sugar. The drink turned out milkier than I thought and was almost white, but was quite good. Tapioca was ok. Service: 4/5 Quick Price: 3/5 Reasonable for bubbletea Overall: 3.5/5 I would come again for a quick bubbletea and try some of their other menu options; the area is quite convenient and may be less busy / loud than some other locations.

    Ordered the dream bubble tea that consisted of coconut and taro with lychee jelly and tapioca. The drink was okay. That tapioca pearls are some of the worse I have tried in a long time. I usually do not get pearls but this time I figured I would get some. They were chewy in the undercooked sort of way. They were just bad and not edible. We also stopped by at 10:30 pm as a group. The staff were very prompt to turn off the lights and stop the music right at 11 pm when there was still a crowd in the store. The staff were very blunt at sending the message that they were closing. 3 stars for the actual liquid portion of the drink and lychee jelly.

It's definitely worth considering taking home a bag of this granola. The predominant milk they use in their lattes is oat (gluten free), but alternatives are available. I've tried a couple of the mushroom lattes, and the Chana Charger is my favourite. The lunch bowls are predominantly gluten free or can easily be adjusted to be so. The produce is always fresh, which allows natural flavours of the ingredients to really come through and make their dishes stand out. The location on 104 St is very accessible from downtown, but if you drive, expect to pay a couple bucks for street parking. With an order at the till and sit anywhere system, it is an accessible place to go on your own and/or get some work done. There is also plenty of space to go with a group or meet for coffee.

It was very obvious she enjoyed people and wanted more than​ a generic answer. She was inquisitive but not intrusive. The eatery has been open since November 2016 and serves a wide variety of tastes with a conservative menu. They also offer catering in the downtown and use as little processed food as possible. Although I'm vegan I was informed that all their meat is prepared and cook on site and not processed. This also applies to all the other ingredients. I took my Tikki sandwhich back to the office and unwrapped the butchers paper it was wrapped in. The aroma of coriander and cumin drifted up to my nose and the yellow gravy dripped over the edges of the soft bun. They say first impressions are important and the same goes for first bites.
