RUN, DONT WALK! GONGCHA just opened a NEW location in Richmond Hill (Unit 103, 9471 Yonge Street)!! Pictured : Dolce Milk Tea, Caramel Milk Tea and Creme Brûlée Croffle Going to start off by saying this location is SO aesthetic !! We got the Dolce Milk Tea and Caramel Milk Tea. I haven't been to Gongcha in a while and I was honestly OVERWHELMED by the amount of VARIETY they had...I also caved and got a croffle (croissant waffle ) it was so fresh and delicious Check out their new location now! PS...they have the best lighting if you want aesthetic pictures

Tip: Get the high mountain pouchong tea with lemon juice and konjac. It's delicious!…read more After having a not-so-stellar Yelp experience at Ramin Isshin, I left the eatery with fellow Yelper friend, Jason. I felt like getting a drink. I noticed this Chicha San Chen and wanted to check it out. Jason joined me to work off some of the ramen that he had devoured. I've been to the Chicha San Chen at CF Markville. This store is at least twice as big as that location. There were plenty of places to sit down and enjoy your tea. I had a couple of fruity sparkling drinks at the CF Markville place. I was going to ask the man behind the counter if he had them. Instead, he said that he'd be back and I could look at the menu. It was delivered in a not-now-I'm-busy tone. It was odd. It's the only reason why this place doesn't get five stars. I'm so glad that Jason was with me. He said that the woman at CF Markville suggested that he get the high mountain pouchong tea with lemon juice and konjac. I decided to go with this drink. I got this drink with less sugar and less ice. I paid with my debit card on my phone. I tapped and was done. It didn't take much time for this drink to be made. It was nice chatting up a storm with Jason as we waited. The moment of truth was here. My drink was ready. I took a sip. It was awesome! The foam tasted like lemon meringue. The tea was perfect with the lemon juice. The konjac was chewy. I haven't had konjac since I visited Song Tea eons ago (rest in bubble tea peace). I wish that this drink came in a larger size. I drank it too fast... haha! I had a great experience with my friend's recommendation. I like that there's lot of parking in this plaza. I'd return again for more good bubble tea. Maybe staff will be more cheerful then. (437)

Ok HELLO?? The aesthetic is so zen and charming inside!! I swear Taiwanese tea shops are so calming…read moreand peaceful. And the place is so fragrant with the natural aroma of tea. While we were waiting for our drinks we sat at this really cute window nook and just took in the peacefulness. The server was very helpful with tea selections and knew which teas paired with what flavours. I got the non caffeinated tea (picture) with honey, no sugar, with grassy, and no ice. My wife had a mango tea with foam. Our drinks were perfect. I love that it was zero fuss. Surprisingly not very busy but we did just have a killer snowstorm. I'm definitely coming back here more often.

I rarely use "hidden gem" to describe a restaurant or store, but I think Now Tea is a true hidden…read moregem for bubble tea and coffee. Commerce Gate is famous for being packed with countless bubble tea shops. Most are famous franchises, such as Chatime, CoCo, Tiger Sugar, Yoyo , etc. Now Tea seems so different among them. I had never seen this store before visiting Commerce Gate. After Googling it, I found that it is also a franchise, but it operates only in Ontario, with three stores in total. Being low-profile alone does not qualify it as a hidden gem. That just means it does not spend much on marketing. What really impressed me was the flavour of its bubble tea. We tried the Milk Green Tea and Milk TieGuanYin, both with bubbles. The tea flavour was strong and full of the unique aromas of green and oolong tea, but it was also smooth going down. The bubbles had been boiled for the perfect amount of time: not so briefly that they had hard centres and not so long that they became too soft. They were very chewy, among the best bubbles I have ever had. The inside of the tea shop is spacious and has plenty of tables and seats. The lighting is bright, and I always see customers working or studying there. Other tea shops usually have very few seats and dim lighting; basically, they do not want to give you a Starbucks vibe and let you sit for too long. Another interesting fact: if you come to Commerce Gate early in the morning, before 11:00, Now Tea is the only tea shop that is open because it also serves coffee. The drinks are also less expensive than those at more famous brands. I guess they save a lot of money on marketing: lower prices and higher quality. I tried this store for the first time this week, and we have already been here three times. As a tea lover, I ask everyone reading this review: you must come here and try their drinks!

Reviewing 2oz of Coffee (located inside Now Tea)…read more This coffee counter is known for doubling up their espresso shots in their lattes, so get ready to be well caffeinated. I arrived right when they opened, and there were already a few people waiting in line. The menu is small & curated, focusing more on the coffee than specialty flavours. However, they do have a good selection of flavoured lattes. I wasn't able to see which beans they used for the espresso, but overall, their roast seems to be a bit darker/stronger, which balances out a sweeter latte well. I tried the iced biscoff and pistachio lattes. The biscoff is slightly sweeter and nuttier - definitely my fave of the two. The pistachio latte, in contrast, was disappointing. It was $1 more than the biscoff latte, looked nothing like the photo on the counter, and didn't taste much of pistachio at all. Although it looks like a separate counter, I realized that you can order drinks from either "shop" from their one main counter. I also found it a bit confusing to figure out the hours of operation, as Google said 2oz of Coffee opens at 11am, but the Now Tea shop isn't open until 12pm.

I ordered their passion fruit slushie with a bit of sugar and tapioca pearls. Delicious! Cute seats and decor. Amazing and friendly service. Free WiFi (it has been a while since the last time I mentioned that!). Plenty of board games on shelf. I recognized Jenga, cards against humanity, monopoly, plus good old playing cards. Overall great addition to the plaza.

The next closest bubble tea places are located in Hillcrest mall across the street, so if you wanted a bubble tea fix, your going to need to find a parking spot in the mall and then go into the mall. Easy tea has lots of parking, and if your looking for a place to meet up, play board games and have some bubble tea, well it's here now with easy tea. Upon entering, easy tea is brightly lit, with plenty of padded chairs and some cutesy instagram worthy spots. Added bonus is there is a board game corner with lots of games to pass time with friends. There are a number of bubble tea combos to choose from, and my other half and I ended up getting a fresh mango coconut milk and milk tea cake meet creme. Both drinks you can select your sugar levels and was about average priced for a bubble tea. Both drinks were enjoyable and well presented, though did take a bit of time to come out. Service was friendly and fast, they accept credit cards, good variety of bubble tea, comfy seating and board games. This all makes for a great place to meet up with friends, or even to study as the music wasn't overly loud or blasting. Will definitely be back
