    Milk tea with Thai tea jelly ($7.05), Matcha Latte With Matcha Jelly ($7.30) & House Blend milk tea w/ yin & yang jelly ($7.05)
    Amber N.

    It is little confusing to find at first. You have to park in an apartment complex garage in the lower level and then walk up the stairs into the building. The building has Boba cup symbols on the floor to tell you which direction you're going. This place is clean and nicely decorated. You get to even sample the jelly. All the jelly's were so refreshing and delicious. The matcha jelly and almond jelly were my favorite. The person helping would describe us the type of jelly and ingredients. They also have a pictures of the top 6 drinks at the counter. You order at the kiosk and ended up getting a large Matcha latte with matcha jelly ($7.30), the House Blend Milk Tea with Thai Tea jelly ($7.05), and the House Blend milk tea with yin yang jelly ($7.05). The matcha drink was good matcha and you can taste the jelly in the matcha. Drinks were made pretty fast. It's pretty cool to see this concept of drink in AZ.

    Wow! Simply decorated (green theme) and efficiently run milk tea shop. My boyfriend and I love Taiwanese-style drinks, and I've been eyeing this place for awhile.... Very happy we did. I wanted to taste a bit of everything- I tried the Black Peach Milk Tea with the Thai Tea and Black Sesame jellies. He got the brown sugar matcha with boba. Finally, as a promotion, the very friendly staff gave us a free Oolong milk tea with oolong jelly! Nice! Their milk tea is extremely rich and full of "tea" flavor. I felt as though the peach in my black peach milk tea was a bit lost in my drink with my jelly types- next time I'll opt for only one flavor of jelly. The jellies were smooth and flavorful- the black sesame had a nice depth of flavor without being too sweet. The Thai tea jelly was great. My boyfriend's matcha with brown sugar boba was sweeter, but very good. The boba was perfectly cooked. The free drink (oolong milk tea with oolong jelly) was DELICIOUS! The tea and the jelly had a rich, toasty flavor. Unfortunately, we couldn't finish it all because the milk was so rich and we had already tried our own drinks. In the future, I'll probably stick to a small drink- the milk is very high quality, but very rich alongside the jellies. Staff was very friendly, and it was clean. Parking is a bit confusing, but just follow the signs and you will be OK. Can't wait to come back and try a slushy or green tea.

    One of our go to milk tea spots. Even walking in, you can smell the aromatics. There is also a kiosk station where you can order. Their house milk tea is our absolute favorite and we usually get it 50% sweet. The tea is so strong and perfectly balanced. They recently added a black sesame foam to their menu and I tried it with the milk tea and it was so good. Depending on the time we go, there is usually no line in the afternoon, but when we go in the evening, there is usually a longer wait. I love how there are a bunch of tables and seating as well. Parking is located in the apartment parking structure.

    HeChaLou (鹤茶楼) is a popular tea brand, translating to "Crane Tea House" or "Crane Tea Building," representing a blend of elegance, wisdom (crane), and traditional, communal teahouses. It specializes in high-quality tea, featuring signature tea jelly and aimed at bringing people together. I've been here a handful of times now and I think I can confidently say that this place is 5 out of 5 stars. From what I saw, you can upgrade drink sizes on most, if not all, for $0.55 and it's well worth the size upgrade once you find your drink of choice. As a fan of black sesame, my drink here will forever be the Coconut Sesame Slushy with Sesame Jelly. It's sooo good! Pass on the milk teas, they're more milk than tea but I the Daydream Black Tea Latte will get the job done when you want a tea drink. It's a cute spot. They're located at the ground floor of an apartment complex. It's a spacious location so come with friends and families. Want to be antisocial? Bring your laptop. I believe they have free wifi.

    Matcha latte with matcha jelly
    Kira D.

    Not my favorite matcha tea joint! Tea is strong, but just not my cup of tea! We ordered at the kiosk, so didn't have much human interaction. Drinks came out pretty quickly. They make their tea on the less sweet side, so if you prefer sweet, then don't ask for 25-50% sweet. Park in the garage, walk up a few steps, and go through the double doors and you're there! I'll have to come back and try the matcha latte again with more sugar added to see how I like it!

    I ordered the geisha peach black milk tea with soy and with the black sesame tea jelly. I love black sesame and I've never had it in tea jelly form. It's absolutely delicious. I also tried the egg puff and it was just too dense for me. The tea selection looks really authentic and I love freshly brewed tea. Location is attached to an apartment complex. The gps is correct, park in the apartment parking structure and follow the sign to the shop. Please come and create your own adventure.

    Kiosk and pick up area

    I kept seeing Hechalou mentioned, but for some reason never got around to trying it. Well, recently I finally went to check it out and I was very pleasantly surprised! There are so many milk tea shops now and I feel like many of them are subpar, so that has deterred me from milk teas in general. Following the guidance of other reviewers, I entered The Access apartments parking garage and followed the signs for Hechalou parking, then up the stairs and continued following the signs. Ordering at the kiosk is straightforward. The times I went, it wasn't very busy, either no one else ordering or just 1 party before me, so I was able to take my time in scrolling through the options. When it does get busy though, I can see how the ordering process may be slow especially if people don't know exactly what they want. I love how customizable the drinks are. You can choose a tea base and add toppings. My favorite bases are the house milk tea and the osmanthus oolong milk tea. My favorite toppings are the buckwheat jelly and the thai tea jelly. One of the times I went, the worker mentioned the boba was fresh and even offered me samples for both the honey boba and brown sugar boba. Both were really good! There's a good amount of seating to enjoy your drinks/snacks. I'm glad I finally tried this place as it's now one of my favorite spots!

    I love Hechalou! Whenever I'm craving a strong milk tea, I know exactly where to go. This time, we got the house blend with yin yang jelly, and it was so good. I really appreciate how the drinks are always perfectly cold and the jellies have such a great texture. I also love that they offer options like almond jelly and black sesame jelly combo (yin yang), it makes the drinks even more fun and customizable. I noticed they recently added some new matcha drinks to the menu, so I'll definitely be coming back to try those. I also appreciate that they posted clear parking instructions, my first visit was a bit confusing, but you can park anywhere in the garage, which is super convenient. There are usually a lot of orders, so it can take a little time, but it's absolutely worth the wait. I also love the herbal tea aroma and the decor inside.

    Stopped by again and got the house blend pearl milk tea, and it was amazing yet again. The tea flavor was amazing but well-balanced with the 100% sweetness level. This time, I parked in the parking garage and followed the signs and entered through the back side of the store! There was ample free parking that didn't have a time limit or needed validation!!!!

    OMG their tea quality!! It's absolutely superb compared to other boba places, if you're a tea lover, you'll be amazed at how good their tea is. Got to try original milk tea with boba and fruity-ish boba, and they were sooo good. Also boba is chewy and yummy. Their boba is definitely more at the tea side as in not super milky/creamy but it was so good. Though, their service is ok- I went there twice and both times people seemed a bit mad, but well their tea is yummy!

    Was in the area and happy to find this Taiwanese tea place. I was excited to try it and wasn't disappointed. Parking was a bit confusing at first, but there are signs that guide you. Parking is in the back with a customer parking structure. The place is cute and clean, and you can smell the tea leaves when you walk in. Ordering seems to be self-serve (or they were just busy), but my drink came out surprisingly fast even after I asked for less topping. The drink was good--the tea tasted high quality and flavorful. I'll definitely be back to try other drinks.

    Matcha egg puffs
    Susan L.

    2nd visit! Yes, the parking is a bit convoluted, but many reviews here give very clear instructions, and once you've been here once, it's fairly easy to find again! Maybe I just like oolong tea a lot, but I really like their osmanthus oolong (brewed tea AND milk tea). Today, I ordered the osmanthus oolong tea with brown sugar pearl (50% sweet, 30% ice). It's a really refreshing brewed tea treat! Pearls are perfectly chewy. Friend ordered osmanthus oolong milk tea with sesame jelly (50% sweet, 30% ice). The roasted oolong tea pairs really well with the toasted sesame flavors of the jelly! We shared some matcha egg puffs and the matcha flavor really comes through in the pancake-like treat! Service was quite fast and the space is bright and airy. Good place to catch up with a friend or a group! 10/10 experience all around!

    You're not lost, keep going! If you park behind the shop in the parking for the nearby apartments just ensure you're in a spot you won't get towed. This place is super easy to find if you're on foot, walking on Apache. However if you drive just read what people have said. Follow the signs. Good boba place, nice flavors. The matcha puff item was okay. I loved how good it smelled inside. It's very cute and they offer many different flavor options and boba. I'm giving 4 stars because when I ordered from the kiosk i realized later that they added 18% gratuity. I'm happy to tip, when I choose to and the amount I choose. I don't like when they auto add it hoping customers won't notice. It was on the top of the screen and I missed it because it was new ordering interface for me and I was distracted talking to my friend. You can also order with a staff person at the counter that says "order here". Maybe that interface is more clear they are including a tip unless you say otherwise. I used the kiosk because it had pictures so I could figure out what I wanted.

The tea flavor was nice and it was different than other places I've had. Love this classic drink. The staff is always nice and everytime I went in there's always available seating.

We also tried the Chocolate Taiwanese egg pancake. Cutest little boba shapes to munch on. We romanticize our life because we love being us. Love your aura. Love your energy. Why not add some more love coming here?!!!

Well, it's not there so I'll just have to give them 5 stars again :) This is my favorite tea cafe in the valley. The vibe is very much Lofi Girl, iykyk. Super chill and a bright, open space to enjoy some delicious drinks. The staff here are friendly and welcoming. When I come here I usually get iced fruit tea, milk tea, or matcha. They have unique and well flavored drinks. On my most recent trip I ordered from the current seasonal menu. They also have fruit teas, hojicha tea, and espresso drinks. It can be helpful to check their website and see the pictures and descriptions if you're trying to decide what to choose. I had the iced jasmine matcha with oat milk and Mont Blanc foam. This is the best flavored matcha drink I've had compared to matcha drinks I've had in Japan. I watched her hand whisk the ceremonial grade powder, making it well blended and smooth. The delicate jasmine sweetness and the very citrus forward Mont Blanc foam really paired well together. The jasmine version doesn't come with that foam so I paid extra to add it, but well worth it. So delicious! In the past I used to get the earl grey milk tea and strawberry lemon green tea. I'll definitely be back, continuing to try out other drinks. I've liked everything so far from Crafti, and that's saying a lot because many boba or tea places are just too syrupy sweet for me, here it's nice flavors and sweetness.

    I still haven't found a better matcha or boba spot in Arizona. Crafti is easily my #1. Every drink…read moreI've tried there has been amazing, and their matcha and hojicha are on another level.

Today we got the lychee green tea and the double matcha. The lychee green tea was super refreshing, perfect for this Arizona heat, and the double matcha was just as delicious as always. I love their boba. I loveee Crafti!

They are reasonably priced although I felt like the price difference for the matcha Thai vs Thai milk tea wasn't worth it. The matcha itself did taste good though and I'd love to come back and try their Pandan Matcha. Their boba is consistently chewy and yummy. Drinks are consistent in quality with variety. We showed up late and the person who served us was very kind, patient, and welcoming despite it being close to closing. We were apologetic and grateful. (Thank you to her!). Otherwise, beware of limited parking like everywhere else in Mesa. This location also has an added bonus in that it's open later than a lot of other boba places so you can still fit in that boba run after dinner! We were also impressed that they have options for a 32 ounce so you can REALLY get your cravings satisfied! Overall, a really solid option.

    Milk Tea is premade. Not much effort and there are better places…read more They also try to charge for less ice and offer "top it off" for $0.80- haven't been to a boba shop that advertises that. Probably won't go back since there are other boba tea places that are made with high quality.
