    Strawberry Yogurt (large) + crystal boba and Creamy Thai Tea Cold (large) with brown sugar boba
    Krisha B.

    JoYu is such a cute little cafe with friendly staff members who are professional and ready to help/answer questions. They do have a self serve kiosk for when you are browsing their menu, and they have nice pictures to accompany each drink. I love their cute cups and the fact that they offer sweet treat options now too! On Tuesdays, they do buy one get one 1/2 off which is great for trying different menu items! I will continue to be back to explore their mentions and various kitchen items soon!

    I wish JoYu had multiple locations or is closer to Norfolk because they are fantastic. I normally opt for their tea, but the one item I came away impressed with was their crookie. JoYu's crookie is a combination of a croissant and a cookie. The one I had was a chocolate chip cookie baked into a croissant. It's rich and the chocolate is so decadent, I loved each bite. I can't wait to return and pick up a few more of them. Service is fast and friendly - a friend and I didn't wait long for our order (we came in on Sunday night, and it was actually a little busy). The facility looked clean as everything was neat and tidy with no trash laying around. Thank you for your wonderful tea and crookies, JoYu! JV

    My new favorite place! I work in the area often and on my way back home I stopped by Joyu for a banh mi and matcha smoothie. The combo banh mi is so good! One of the best banh mi's I've had. Definitely stopping by again when I'm in town.

    Sophia and I were last here a year ago checking out this spot which was new at the time. Since we were in the area last Saturday, we decided to stop by to see what's been going in. We were greeted by the staff once we walked in. One thing that I noticed was they added a self-service kiosk which saves time for staff taking orders directly. As far as inside goes, everything looked pretty neat like before. And music was playing adding a calm-like vibe throughout. A few people were inside either dining in or ordering to-go. My selection was a large Strawberry Yogurt at 50% sugar with tapioca pearls added. This was very good. Not too sweet even with the pearls added. Sophia ordered an Ube Mike Cream and enjoyed herself as well. Not really much to add here, but once again, Joyu came through for us before we made the trek home. Hopefully, we'll be back soon. Till next time :)

    Peach and lemon dessert

    One of my favorite boba spots. I tried the peach and lemon desserts recently it was good! The owner is friendly and accommodating. The decor inside is cute and it's a nice place to sit, hangout, and grab a drink.

    It's been a while since I visited JoYu Tea. I ordered the caramel and the ube cream . Service was good. Ambiance was as I remembered. Coffee in each of these beverages were slightly too bitter for my liking.

    The treats and tea were great, but be prepared to wait a while for your order. There was only 1 person working and I had to wait 40 minutes for my order.

    Cute Asian cafe with plenty of parking, board games, and free WiFi! I ordered their very berry latte with 0% ice, oat milk, and peach pops, topped with milk foam. Not too sweet. Perfect size (large). I recommend stirring it with a straw such that the berry is actually part of the drink! Would come again!

    I have been on a search for a new boba shop since the closing of bamboo and I think I found my new spot! When you walk inside you are always greeted by the wonderful workers. The shop is really clean and organized. Make sure you don't forget their punch card which offer great rewards. My favorite drink is the Avocado Joyu, the avocado and condensed milk combo is amazing. Make sure you ask for boba because it's an additional add on, at first I thought all the drinks came with boba but they don't. I was kinda sad at first but now I know. This place also has free wifi and board games for you to chill, don't worry about being rush to leave because it's meant to be like a cafe spot for you to relax and enjoy.

    We were craving for something sweet after dinner. We went late but they were still open. Even though they were almost closing, they were nice to take our orders. The place is medium in size but clean and airy. It's my second time here and the deliciousness of all is still on point. I truly enjoyed the purple starlight drink. I think it's my most favorite drink. We also tried their cookie croissant. That one is also another favorite specially warmed. We enjoyed coming over here. It's a true treat and a treasure. See you soon again.

    I love Get Lost it's such a good sweet treat spot…read more Their Hawaiian shave ice is SO good and they have a ton of flavors to choose from. Tropical to sugary flavors; Dragon fruit to bubble gum. My personal favorite is the Float On which is root beer float inspired with vanilla icecream and it's seriously amazing. They put vanilla ice cream in the middle, shaved ice packed with flavor, and then top it with their house-made whipped cream. It just makes it perfect. The ice cream is delicious, the syrups are flavorful, and you can tell everything is made with care. As far as seating, it's a small spot. Inside where you order, there's only a tiny bit of seating so it's not really somewhere you go to sit for a long time. Most people order at the walk-up window and wait for their name to be called. They do have picnic tables outside if you want to sit out on a nice sunny day. And right beside it, there's an attached space with additional seating if you want to be somewhere a little more covered or out of the weather. It's perfect in the summer, but I also love that they stay open in the winter. They usually do buy-one-get-one free Fridays during the winter, which is such a nice bonus. And the customer service is always really good too friendly and welcoming every time I go. Definitely recommend if you're in Virginia Beach and craving something sweet and refreshing!

Somehow they managed to take the taste of a perfect iced coffee and turn it into the softest, fluffiest shaved ice you can imagine. Rich, refreshing, and way better than it has any right to be. The place is clean, the staff is friendly, and you can tell they put real care into what they serve. If you're even remotely a coffee person, do yourself a favor and get the Mug Life. Get Lost Ice just set the bar pretty high for every other shaved ice shop out there.

    Back in town for JeepFest & our hotel's breakfast wasn't all that so when I mentioned to bestie…read morethat I would be hunting down a pastry while her and my godson were on their first beach cruise Saturday morning she asked me to wait so they could join me. I already knew this was my destination as I had been following them since they opened in VB. Upon our arrival we found the Cafe about a 1/4th of the way full so I had hopes for breakfast in a quiet setting. Even though there was a steady flow of traffic, we were able to dine in a relaxed setting without feeling rushed. I mention this because with it being a holiday weekend full of Jeepers, I fully expected them to be packed. The wait to order was too long as it left me staring at the pastry window so long I almost ordered one of everything however; I refrained from doing so but still bought 4 pastries, French toast & seasoned potatoes. Yes yes, alot of food for 1 person but I still had 2 days left in my visit and well, I have a thing for pastries. The pastries were: mango & passion fruit eclair, a pineapple muffin, lemon raspberry cake & profiteroles. I loved everything with the exception of the eclair. It wasn't anything against the eclair, it's just the mango/passionfruit mixture was just too passionate for my tastes. The muffin reminded me of my own homemade upside pineapple cake without all the brown sugar. It was light and buttery. The Lemon raspberry slice was delightful & not the least bit tart or too sweet. A mixture of both flavors without either one overpowering the other. The cake was super moist, perfect. The profiteroles were my favorite. They reminded me of that feeling I had the 1st time I tasted them while living in Italy. The choux perfectly baked and so delightfully light. The French toast was good enough without the side of syrup. The star for me of the breakfast items were the potatoes. I LOVED them. They were served HOT, seasoned just right with their insides softer that a baby bottom. I coulda just ordered 2 servings of those & bypassed the toast. All in all, well worth the wait. The folks were friendly, the Cafe clean and the seating plentiful and comfortable. I would recommend this place for both pastries & French toast & spuds.

We arrived within 10 minutes from leaving the restaurant and the parking lot was pretty much empty even though we visited during Friday in January I didn't expect it to be too busy but not a single car in a parking lot was definitely unexpected, we should have left... Nevertheless, we walked up to the service window the service was pretty quick and straight to the point the ambience not much going on ... This is mainly an outdoor Eatery as a result due to the cold temperatures around 30° we were not going to sit outside to enjoy the ambience but it seems like it's a cute atmosphere when the weather is permitting.
