An alternative to Chatime with plentiful hot tea options and snacks! Perfect for a cold winter pick me up. We came on an especially frigid day for a hit tea. The inside of the store was surprisingly clean even with all the snow and salt outside. It's really spacious so there's lots of space to wait and a good amount of seating on the side bench. The offer free wifi and have a lot of outlets on a back seating back so you can probably get some work here too. The big windows let in a lot of light giving the place a really nice open vibe.
There were two tearistas working and they were both really nice. One was walking a customer through all the ins and outs of bubble tea since it was their first time getting it, which was really sweet. They were really nice when helping me as well!
I got my order to go and they packaged my waffle and tea together in a paper bag. There was a drink tray inside the bag to ensure my drink wouldn't tip over.
I grabbed a hot pearl milk tea at 50% sweetness. It was super sweet! I was kinda surprised. Luckily the tea flavour was very intense as well so it ended up tasting really good. I also had an original bubble waffle which I think was vanilla flavoured. It's not quite the same as the HK style egg waffles. It was sweeter for sure. It was golden brown and perfectly cooked! I've heard that if there's a lot of people, it can be quite a wait for the waffles but it'll be worth it! read more
