    Left to right: Earl Grey, Matcha Slush, Taro Ube (drank most of it), Oreo
    Dan T.

    Came here a couple of times with the wife and I and we just love all the options they have here. The bubble tea is done right, where you can taste the perfect blend of tea and whatever flavor you get. My personal favorites are the Taro Ube and the Matcha Slush. The Crème Brûlée and the Strawberry Yakut is also a must try. If you're looking for something for nondairy options, I strongly recommend the Pink Lady drink. It's tasty and very refreshing.

    $1 or two if you DONT want ice FYI usually but a regular (with ice ) and one without for my sister so it's not watered down Service can also be a hit (weekday ) or miss (weekend)

    winter melon milk tea with boba and flan, creme brûlée, cinnamon sugar croffle, and toasted lava croffle

    Such a cute place! Drinks were great, boba was chewy, croffle was amazing. I am thoroughly pleased. My only complaint was that the plastic fork and knives were too flimsy and weak to handle my savage eagerness to devour it. I ordered the winter melon milk tea with boba and flan, creme brûlée, cinnamon sugar croffle, and toasted lava croffle. Believe it or not.. ALL were GOOD

    My drink was delicious. The ladies there suggested this and it was everything I described that I liked. Huge selection. Beautiful presentation.

    Mango on Fire with strawberry popping boba

    The drinks were so good! The Mango on fire was the best one. I also got the crème brûlée one. That was good but I didn't like the brown sugar boba. I preferred the popping fruit boba. The service was fast and friendly. They were really busy that day and people were still in and out for the most part. The ambiance was upbeat and fun. I loved how they had boba squishmallow's in the seating area. You should check them out!!

    Kept hearing about how great this place was, my husband stopped and grabbed me a creme brûlée brown sugar boba latte! He said the staff was friendly/place was nice inside. The latte was so good, I'd never had boba before! This one is very sweet, you'd love it if you have a sweet tooth!

    Hooray for a new bubble tea spot in Cleveland! They just opened in the beginning of July, and I already consider it the best bubble tea in the area. It's a bit out of the way for me but the drive is so worth it. The owner is also very nice and let me and my friends try a waffle dessert for free. For those who don't know, Fat Bee's is a Vietnamese bubble tea franchise with multiple locations in the US. They offer a good variety of milk and tea based drinks, and I was impressed with the amount of toppings they have. The space is small, but there are a few tables there to study or hang out with friends. My favorite drinks so far are the taro ube milk tea and the pink lady. Hopefully I get to try more of their drinks soon!

    Ordered the oreo boba and thought it was pretty good! I feel like I've had better elsewhere, but can't pinpoint anything wrong with it necessarily. I'd heard very negative reviews of this place including hair being in the drinks (!!!) and was hesitant to give it a try, but I'm glad I did. The vibe is rly cute in here and I think I'd try it again someday :)

    Reliably fantastic drinks! My husband and I have gotten dozens of drinks and only ever had one with a mistake (topping mix-up) What you get looks just like what is advertised on the menu and tastes phenomenal! Boba is always perfectly cooked and all the toppings are tasty and so cute! (love the star-shaped mango jelly) Interior of cafe is cute and fun! (you can decorate with your own post-it art) Some indoor seating available. Staff is friendly and helpful. I recommend the Tropical Delight (minus strawberry syrup) with mango jelly and brown sugar boba. Only drawback; many drinks are overly sweet (in my opinion), but you can adjust the sweetness level for most drinks. It's a nice feature so everyone can have what they like. I usually do 75% sweetness.

    L-R: Matcha slushy with grass jelly; Taro Ube milk tea with flan pudding; Creme Brulee coffee; and Ube drizzle latte.

    We accidentally discovered this boba shop a few months back and have been hooked since! In my humble opinion, it's one of the two best boba cafe in NE Ohio. Their drinks are unique, delicious and reasonably priced. If you're a coffee lover, their Phin (Vietnamese dripping coffee style) drinks are to die for! My favorite is the creme brulee, it's bold, creamy and just out of this world. I only wish they could offer a bigger cup size because one small drink wasn't enough. The croffles are equally awesome. It's a must-try!

    Passion sunset

    I've came here twice and both times were amazing! I got the mango on fire with strawberry popping and it was great. I also got the passion sunset which is also great. You also can write stickies on the walls and it's hilarious. Would definitely come again!

I stopped in last minute while out running errands. I was seated immediately on a busy Saturday late morning and greeted right after. The menu is fantastic. Great options, wonderful seasonal specials. (Short rib omelette?! Hell yes!) I wanted basic, so I built my own omelette with a side of bacon and a hot tea. They have a great drink menu- coffee, specialty cocoas, tea, cocktails, mocktails, and refreshers. I was on my way to see a friend, so I grabbed us each a refresher to go. My meal was out in just minutes. Expertly prepared, fresh and delicious. Also a very nice portion. Sourdough toast was excellent. Generous filling for the omelette too. The only drawback was a common plight for strip mall restaurants- entrance that opens straight into the dining room. No foyer or vestibule means the cold January air nipped you in the face every time that front door opened. On cold days, get a table in the back. I'd like to highlight the mocktail concept, too. I often want a spirited drink but don't imbibe booze often. I love that they have offerings. The entire staff was so nice and helpful. I can't wait to come back!

    Miss Hickory's Tea Room is a quaint tea house right next to the scenic Mill Stream Run Reservation…read more There's a softness to the place with its charming teapots and tea cups, pastel color scheme, and themed tea rooms. I had the loveliest afternoon tea with my mom at Miss Hickory's. AMBIANCE: You'll step back into the 1900's with time-specific decor and waitresses' attire. Miss Hickory's occupies a mid-1800s farmhouse that was owned by the first blacksmith in Strongsville, William Weller. The current owners preserved the historic charm, transformed the farm house into multi-room tea house. There are two main dining areas on the first floor, and multiple gorgeous themed tea rooms upstairs (like the Gathering Room and Storybook Tea Room). The interior contains a lot of refurbished and vintage furniture, charming housewares, and decor. Think pastels, florals, and lace. The space comfortably accommodates big groups and pairs. Small parking lot is available onsite, consider car pulling if attending with a large group. RESERVATIONS: I personally despise the commitment of reservations, but the process here is very easy. I emailed the tea house, received same day email response, and was not charged to hold the reservation. The tea room space started filling very quickly at open, so it's best to reserve your space. FOOD/TEA: Multi-page menu will accommodate all types of tastes. Find another seasonal menu at your table with all the flavors of the season. The menu contains signature plates, sandwiches, soups, sides, sweets, desserts, and beverages. You can have anything from a full tea feast to no tea at all equally enjoying your time. If you're a tea connoisseur, read all tea descriptions at the end of the menu. We ordered Miss Hickory's High Tea Sampler ($23 per person) that contains a shareable 3-tier serving tray with finger sandwiches, wonton cups, strawberries, scones, sweets, and crème. While I have seen larger portions at other tea houses, the food amount was very filling. Everything was extremely fresh, much fresher than experienced at other tea houses. I most enjoyed the walnut scones, they were so delicious! The standalone menu items seemed expensive and were served in very small quantities based on our observation of other guests. I don't think that ordering standalone items offers value. My mom thought that the experience was pricey, while I think it's about at market price. Since the tea is not included in the sampler, we ordered and shared two tea pots - Loose Leaf Arctic Berry and Black Currant ($4 per teapot with refills but no sharing). They were served with a tea warmer which was incredible, I love me some hot tea! The flavors started out very mild then evolved during our experience due to longer steeping. We agreed that Arctic Berry was our favorite tea. If you're not into loose leaf teas, you'll discover a very long Twinings selection. EXPERIENCE FOR KIDS: Many guests arrived with kids who were very enthusiastic about tea parties. They wore adorable matching outfits. Kids received their own tea experience - tiny tea cups and teapot. It was really cute! The room upstairs (Storybook Tea Room) seems to well accommodate anyone with children, has fairytales book, and play tea set. I can envision an adorable children's tea party in this space. SERVICE: The service is extremely attentive. Five stars! Our waitress was so kind, efficient, and just generally pleasant. She presented us with a demo of additional desserts for purchase at the end of the dining experience. One of them was Bridgerton-inspired Mille-feuille! We didn't have any more room for desserts, but they looked really elaborate! The owner inquired how our experience was at the end of our afternoon tea as well which felt especially welcoming. SHOP: The tea house has a small shopping area by the entrance. The cutest things are tea cup cards with tea bags! We loved our calm and delicious afternoon tea. We plan to return during nature's more scenic seasons like winter or the vibrant time of fall. I think that the views by the tea house will be unmatched. I have to say that it's one of my best tea house experiences.

Many other tea rooms do not use these decorative tea pots anymore when serving tea which is disappointing. The restaurant was beautiful decorated. Our entrees were delicious but small. The desserts were also tasty. If you're looking for a charming tea room this is the place to dine! The prices are pricy. The very tiny small wedge salad pictured was $16. $16 for a quarter of a head of .99 cent lettuce with a dab of blue cheese dressing, bacon bits. Shameful. Tiny Dessert $8 My opinion You're paying for the ambience.

I ordered the blue raspberry mojito, and it was refreshing and the right amount of sweet. My friend said it tasted like a blue Jolly Rancher, and she was absolutely right. I liked the design of the green apple fruit pastry, and it caught my eye when I saw it in the case. Luckily, I also liked the taste. The green part is a hard white chocolate shell, and inside were mousse, cake, and an apple puree with apple chunks. The inside was especially delightful, and both the mousse and cake were light and airy. I just wish the pastry was bigger - especially for the price, but I get that you're also paying for the aesthetic, and I was a fan of the aesthetic! The tres leches cake was rich and scrumptious. The cake was so moist and sweet. If you don't like your cakes REALLY sweet, you might not like the tres leches cake, but as I have a sweet tooth, I adored the cake. The decor and vibes were also great. Not too loud and a good spot if you want to work for a couple of hours.
