They have an ice cream or soft serve frozen yogurt option with is really good but expensive. Several toppings including, walnut, oreos, sour worms, peanut butter cups, gummy bears and so on. They have all sorts of teas and coffee drinks including milk substitutes which is always a plus in my book. There are protein shakes, again not cheap, over five bucks just for one...Yikes. The staff here is always really kind. My biggest problem here is the music. Not only is it so so distractingly loud, they play pop and rap. The music doesn't suit the cafe. Maybe if they were playing some Norah Jones, I will be okay with the volume level. I'm not here for a dance party, I'm here to study, write a paper or quietly converse with my peers.

I always order the same thing (strawberry refresher) and never has it taken less than 10 minutes to receive my order. Many times I get my drink and the cup isn't even filled so I am paying for a venti but only getting a grande size of the drink. I love Starbucks but this one is very disappointing.

The people are always so friendly and excited to serve you a beverage and snack. I always feel so welcomed and I greatly enjoy getting work done in the calming ambiance they have created. The only bad thing about this cafe is it fills up quick, so if you plan on staying (especially if you need a seat with an outlet) ya better get there early. Highly recommend checking out Stir Cafe!

10/10 Experience at Tea Leaf Cafe!…read more Tea Leaf Cafe in Buffalo is easily one of my favorite spots in the city. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is cozy, clean, and welcoming. It's the perfect place to relax, hang out with friends, or just enjoy some quiet time. The drinks are AMAZING. Whether you're getting classic milk tea, fruit tea, or something more unique, everything tastes super fresh and perfectly balanced -- not overly sweet, just right. The boba texture is always on point too. You can tell they really care about quality. The staff is friendly, patient, and fast with orders, even when it's busy. They make you feel appreciated as a customer. If you're in Buffalo and love bubble tea (or even if you're trying it for the first time), I 100% recommend Tea Leaf Cafe. Definitely a 10/10 -- I'll keep coming back!

Upon walking in, there's a list of drink options they have the base of milk tea or fruit tea - whether you want a regular tea or smoothie form as well. I really liked the high number of options (compared to spots I've been to in Toronto it's usually a typical menu). They also had a few new additions and employee recommendations. Mango Smoothie: I decided to go for a mango smoothie since it's a safe option. Pretty big size portion, more than enough for what I was looking for. It was exactly what I expected from a mango smoothie. Lots of seating and a very chill spot to go with friends. The cafe also had some board games too. They were pretty quick with their service. I certainly see why it's a busy spot for locals here!

It is more of a takeout situation than dine in as there are only 4 seats along the window looking into the cat habitat. They offer a variety of coffee, tea & boba drinks as well as baked goods and some merch. I ordered an unsweet Dan cong hot tea latte and egg tarts and my friend got a brown sugar boba tea and biscoff cake. I like that you can customize the sweetness of any beverage from no sweetness to very sweet since everyone likes a different cup of tea so to speak. The baked goods case was very limited when we visited (around 2pm on a Saturday), but we both liked our picks. The egg tarts came in a pack of 4 packaged in a sturdy wooden box (so sturdy I'm reusing it now to hold spice jars) for $10. The tarts were a slightly sweet custard like egg filling in a crispy, flaky phyllo type shell. Very yummy! My tea was also really good; a nice balance between the tea & milk. My friend's cake was light, airy and spongy. So delicious! She was kind enough to let me taste it and I loved it even though I'm not a huge cake person. She also thought it was fantastic. She enjoyed her bubble tea as well. It came in a thick plastic cup with a snap on cover for the straw hole, so it too could easily be reused. I would definitely visit again to try other drinks and hopefully hit the baked goods case when it's full! The service was friendly and efficient.
