In-person, especially on a cold day, this spot has a nice vibe. The woman working there was patient and friendly while my friend and I stood slightly overwhelmed by the menu. Even on a snowy day, several tables were occupied, so it felt lively without being too busy or noisy, making it easy to carry on a conversation. The second time I went back was with a coworker specifically to try the mango sticky rice. The portion was generous, so I def wouldn't suggest ordering it if you are already full, but it was so good! The third time was a delivery order, and we went all in on the mango sticky rice dessert drinks. None of us had seen that dessert flavour offered as a drink before outside of Chapayom. Everyone loved it, though 1 or 2 people found it a tad sweet. Overall, I'm def a fan and would want to stop by again the next time I'm in town.

A cute and cozy spot to get some refreshingly delicious Thai drinks. The service was fast and the…read moreperson who served us was friendly and patient. We got the Pistachio Thai Milk Tea (4/5) and Taro Thai Milk Tea (5/5). Pistachio Thai Milk Tea was strongly infused with nuttiness of the pistachio with hints of sweetness. The Thai black tea was strong and was balanced with the creaminess of the milk. I wanted to try their house-made pandan mochi but they didn't have any. Hopefully in the future, they'll be able to make enough so customers would be able to try it. Taro Thai Milk Tea had a strong flavour of the Thai Milk Tea which was complemented well with the sweetness and earthiness of the taro. We really enjoyed the real taro pieces infused in the drink.

I was familiar with the 1點點 brand used by the stores in China, but never had the chance to try the original 50嵐 until a recent trip to Taipei. Decided to try this location since it's closer to my home in order to compare it to the ones I had overseas, and it was about as good as I expected. Employees were nice and efficient, and we had a nice chat about the ingredients and methods used to prepare the drinks and how they compared to the stores in Taiwan. Pleasantly surprised to see that the peach tea was more popular than the mango tea here (mango was very popular in Taipei), but I ended up getting a Refresher Set to try them both anyway. Happy with the results, pleased that I don't have to go on vacation to have these drinks again.

Perhaps it was a place that had forgotten to turn off their open sign, but no, ohohoho Charlie's Tea is actually open 24/7. They're making my early morning bubble tea desires come true. When you step in, the place smells fragrant from the tea they are using, and the place has a classic, clean, high-ceiling vibe. You can order at the kiosk or at the counter. I really liked their rich cheese foam -- not too sweet, and slightly salty, savoury, and a wonderful addition to cut out the flowery bitterness of their tea. It's also nice to have the crystal (konjac) pearl option, if you're watching your sugar and/or calories. Remember to sign up for their membership to get coupons and discounts.

Looking over the menu I saw that they were offering a strawberry matcha which I had to get. The matcha they use is the viral Marukyu Koyamean's Isuzu, which is refreshing and light. Paired with the strawberry and oat milk it was a perfect blend of sweetness, refreshing, and creamy. As I was waiting for my drink, I walked around and noticed a back section with tables and chairs. Assuming that it's for people to sit down to enjoy their drinks. I was also told by staff at they serve alcoholic drinks after 6PM (if I remember correctly). A cool 2 in 1 spot for coffee /match and drinks. Would definitely go back to try their other drinks since I now they use MK's matcha! Give it a try!
