Being from Kansas City (but originally from OC, CA... so we know what quality is), we have limited good options in KC, so it was delightful and refreshing to find this place! My sister said "oh, we have Heytea in OC, so we'll pass." Pfft, she missed out! We got 2 brown sugar milk teas and 3 coconut mango booms... all with reduced sugar. THEY WERE A HIT AND HIT THE SPOT!
First, everything was so fresh. Holy moly, you could just taste it all. I'm not a foodie and food is just calories to me - means to an end. When I get a nice drink like this, I usually gulp it down and cannot understand why my wife takes 2-3 hours to drink a similar drink. HOWEVER, I took my time over the next 2 hours to enjoy it! I absolutely loved the hint of tea in my mango drink. Wow, that's all I can say.
Second, the place is newer and the ambiance is so purposeful, clean, professional, and uplifting. They really put the tea up-front-and-center... a nice homage to the heart and soul of "tea parlors" from long ago.
We would, hands-down, recommend the place and would go again. read more
