    Good quality of tea as always. I had their aiyu lemon, it's refreshing with lemon chunks, love it so much. This store is a bit of noisy, I had some hard time to get my drinks ordered.

    I normally don't go to Gong cha when I'm in Katy Asian town but I saw these cups on TikTok and I HAD to get one. It's so adorable! It's the Milk Foam Gingerbread Milk Tea with Pearls but apparently you can order whatever tea you want and pay $1 extra for the cup. We didn't really care for the milk foam but the flavor was nice. I think everyone should go to Gong Cha and get this cute cup for the holidays :D

    Great drinks to close the night after dinner. The service is quick and the drinks were made as ordered. While enjoying our drinks, we sat and played some Jenga with another group next to us making it 10Xs more fun.

    I've been to gong cha a few times and really enjoy their drinks. Most recently went because I had to have that gingerbread bottle. I did get the gingerbread milk tea. While I loved the actual drink itself, the foam was very sour tasting. Ended up getting a straw once home so I could avoid drinking the foam. I'd go back and get the drink again but ask for no foam.

    Unfortunately, I am pretty disappointed in this location. I got excited but I saw the name Gong Cha, and was even more excited that we didn't have to drive somewhere else after going to the grocery store next door, but the milk in my drink looked like it was separating, like it was spoiled or something. My husband pointed that out, and I thought it was nothing so I shook it app and drank it and it tasted OK but both of our drinks pretty much had no flavor at all. I got a dirty brown sugar boba and we also got a coffee drink with boba, the coffee did have a strong bitter taste, but nothing else. Neither was sweet, and neither was really good to be honest. I get a brown sugar or taro coconut each time and it's been the worst I've had. I would want to try them again, but honestly there's so many good places in this area that I'm not sure if I would waste another almost $20 on subpar drinks that are mostly just ice. The only good thing was the girl at the register was nice when taking our orders and bathroom was clean.

    Love coming to Gong Cha for boba. They are usually super quick with getting your drinks out. Lady who was placing my order explained what was in my drink and made it easy for me. I got their Thailand mango milk tea 70% sugar. Already comes with passion fruit jelly ! This is my new fav drink here and will definitely be comm g back.

    I love boba tea and I had heard a lot about gong cha. So I decided to give it a try. I tried their yoghurt mango tea with pearl. It was just okay unfortunately for me. I have definitely had better boba teas. They have a ton of options. So definitely a good one time try to understand your options better.

    Eh. I'll give them kuddos for following the correct covid procedures; no seating, masks enforced, but that's about it. The girl who took my order, pretty sure she didn't care to be there. Customer service is so so essential. It makes your experience even more memorable. She was in a rush to take our order, and being our first tome, we wanted to read the menu properly. We had to change an order and she wasn't happy about that. I had gotten the brown sugar milk tea with tapioca and it didn't leave a lasted impression on my taste buds. I've had much better elsewhere. It was really bitter and the tapioca had an odd taste to it. I was looking forward to this place a lot, based on the reviews, but it wasn't at all what I was hoping for.

    Overall not bad. Quick service, drinks are decent, and large parking lot. It's located on the left side of Hmart.

    The drinks are good but the waffle bubble is awful. Staffs are friendly and social distancing is applied here. They also removed tables so they can comply with the government guidelines.

    My friend who live in the area recommended this place & I'm a boba fan. Passion fruit lychee green tea with light ice & crème brûlée brown sugar milk tea & strawberry latte is to die for! I would come here everyday to have 6 order!

    Milk Tea with Boba
    Angelica C.

    I've been her several occasions on different times of the day/evening and their classic milk tea with boba is always consistently fresh, delicious and craveable. The boba is perfection, which keeps me coming back! There will be a new location opening up near my hood so this is great (but dangerous) news to me.

Comfortable cushioned chairs/bench, it's actually not just for looks. Good amount of seating area, though, they could have added maybe 1 more. I got a Signature Black Tea Egg Waffle and House Blend Milk Tea with Yin-Yang Jelly. Though, the house blend milk tea was delicious, I specifically asked multiple of times if there's any tree-nuts, such as almond milk, because someone in my group has a severe tree-nut allergy. I have mentioned it many times, including what their egg waffle mix has (such as almond flours and what not). I was told the waffle was good to go but nothing about their yin-yang jelly. The young server was friendly but I don't think he realized the importance of someone not consuming tree-nuts if they have a tree-nut allergy. Luckily, we double checked with someone else after I questioned the drink and luckily the person who has a tree-nut allergy didn't try any of the drink. So, if you or someone in your group has a tree-nut allergy... possibly avoid this place or get a drink somewhere else. There's a big chance of cross-contamination even if the person who took your order knows the severity of it. Overall, it's a good bubble-tea IF AND ONLY IF THERE'S NO ONE IN YOUR GROUP WITH A TREE-NUT ALLERGY. Tea, at 20% sugar level was sweet enough and delicious without artificial taste. I can actually taste the tea and milk. Their Signature Black Tea Egg Waffle is cute in 3 shapes of cranes. The wing parts are nice and crispy but the center of the body is dry. There's no bounce to it. It's pretty thick and heavy. I would skip their cranes and just get drinks. Again, please beware if you or anyone has a tree-nut allergy.

All of them were very light sweet and i liked the original the most The time I spent at those claw machines is actually embarrassing This spots vibe was so cute tho. They're known for their jelly (no gelatin) which was yummy. I wish the drinks were creamier and less milky but still enjoyed their house milk tea and fruit tea.

    After making their hyped debut nearly 2 years ago, Wanpo Tea Shop has remained one of my favorite…read morestops in Katy Asian Town (KAT). Their line of beverages have hit the spot in a way where I can laud them for their consistency in both customer service and selection of drinks. Their selection of drinks are broken down in milk tea, fruit tea, latte, "pure" tea, traditional, and cheese. Toppings include aiyu, grass, red bean, tapioca, pearl, and combined boba with sugar level adjustments. The standouts in each section for me are as follows: (pure) jinxuan oolong, kumquat lemon tea (fruit), winter melon lemonade (traditional), yamamasa koyamaen's matcha (latte), and their regular wanpo milk tea. If I'm feeling really indulgent, I'll get a cheese cream oreo but that's a rare occasion. They've done a good job of opening up the interior space and the layout is ideal for groups and solo action. This is likely to accommodate lines (if any) throughout the week. The illuminated tea areas is a nice decorative touch, There are some table + board games and the place is really pretty during the daytime when the natural light kicks in. WiFi is also on point. The staff is young, friendly, and mostly bilingual in Mandarin + English. Prices are the standard $5-7 per drink, and parking is always abundant in this part of KAT. Given Wanpo's Taiwanese roots and celebrated global brand, it only legitimizes (and further saturates) the greater Houston tea scene.

    I had a very...weird experience at Wanpo. I ordered a Sugarcane Lemonade and when I tasted it, it…read moredidn't taste like Sugarcane, just straight lemon. Wanting to give Wanpo the benefit of the doubt, I asked if it could be remade because it was a $8 drink. The worker, whose name I believe is Eric, SNIFFED my drink through the straw and said that it's Sugarcane and gave it back to me.....He then said he wouldn't remake it because it smells like it...Huh..? I walked out in shock because, what? Out of all the boba spots that I have been to, never has anyone smelled my drink. In fact, I used to work at a boba shop and never has it occurred to me to smell a drink and not remake it for a customer. Like, I don't know what methods you use to confirm ingredients but you couldn't even take the drink to the back to smell it? You did it in front of my face? I don't ever ask for drinks to be remade unless it tastes nothing like I ordered, I just go about and let it be but this genuinely appalled me. I go to Wanpo and I enjoy their Mango Sago drink but this experience has led me to never come back because... are you serious?

I like what I like, just as others like what they like. So I wasn't sure what I was going to get stuck with. So on the way to the outskirts of Katy, we stopped in at Ding Tea. Let me tell you how busy this area was on a beautiful Sunday before lunar New Year. There wasn't a single parking space to be had in three different lots. There was traffic everywhere in people. Do not drive well when they're looking for a parking spot. People just stopped in the middle of the parking lot and didn't move. Waiting for someone to walk out of a building. Super annoying. Luckily, Ding Tea is located behind lot of the larger restaurants and the golf course and other super busy areas. There was a parking spot waiting for me out front and it was easy to get in and out. We ended up getting a tea to share, and two to go with us to the party. We also got an order of the popcorn chicken. I wish they would have it a little bit spicier on its own, without having to dip it into things. A little seasoning goes a long way! The staff were also super nowledgeable about the menu, courteous, and efficient. Will definitely be back, but not on lunar new year. So busy!!

I have a ton of younger cousins who are always working with an allowance budget, so finding somewhere that can actually appease their appetite without breaking the bank is not easy--especially if you're feeding 10+ kids. MeetFresh's $15 giant desserts are truly the king of both budget and flavor. I cannot stress enough how much of a hit this place was the first time I recommended it to my cousins. Whether I'm with them or not, they always make a point to stop by whenever they drive into Houston from College Station. For that reason alone, MeetFresh holds a special place in my heart. It has given my large family a fun, worthwhile experience time and time again. On my most recent visit, we had a friend flying in from Chicago, so we brought him and his girlfriend here. We collectively ordered the Taro Mochi Milk Shaved Ice, and wow--if you're a fan of Chinese herbal flavors, this is the dessert for you. I usually stick with the mango or strawberry fruit dishes, but this one reminded me of Sâm Bổ Lượng, a Vietnamese chè/sweet soup. The flavors were earthy, comforting, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. I genuinely could not stop eating it until the very end, when all that was left was a puddle of melted ice and mixed-up dessert "schlop" -- LOL. Truly, thank you, MeetFresh, for being such a great place to gather, share, and enjoy dessert without needing a huge budget.

The space is great for hanging out. Would definitely come back.
