We're often here for spontaneous get together with friends and definitely each time is memorable for us. It's definitely a great place for conversation whether sitting indoors or outside. I love this place. No matter how many ice cream shops we try anywhere we go but we always end up coming back here. You know we're loyal to this place. It's not only the flavors, the vibe, customer service and most importantly it's not expensive. I will secretly say, it's the amazing gelato. And my kids love sampling their flavors each time. Lucky to have them in our local area.

The pork shu mai really blew me away with their flavor and generous size. I grabbed some cookies to go and they were fantastic. The cakes looked like perfection so need to return for those (and more dim sum!). The woman in the shop (perhaps the owner?) was so friendly and welcoming. So happy I found this wonderful establishment!

Although, I didn't check the time and saw that they were closing at six so I called around 545 and asked if they're able to stay in later so I can pay for my drink and I can order on the phone and the person on the phone with me said ' yeah I can stay back till 6:15' . AsI rushed over here, my time went up due to traffic and I let her know that and she said that 'as long as I get in before 6:20 it's gonna be ok' thankfully I got here at 6:18 and as soon as I got in, she handed me my drink, and as I paid for it, she offered me a custard on the house, and I happily took the custard. I told her that I was going to see a movie and that I needed something to drink before I saw the movie and she understood and listen to me as I was talking. Definitely would recommend going here! People are very accommodating to a situation, and like I said, they never disappointed with their drinks and I can't wait to try custard pastry!

It's so nice and refreshing, especially for a summer's day! The service is so fast. I ordered my drink and it didn't take even 10 minutes for me to receive my order.

And there is enough light inside the shop that allows yoou to see the menu board without having to squint. All of that at a price that is really affordable for the quality of the drink. My last visit made fans of my family as well. I guess we be seeing a little bit more of this place from now on...

When I discovered the interesting location…read moreof Vampire Penguin in Palladio offered tea service I knew the family needed to immediately go. I made our reservation through their website. As a tech-savvy gal, this was not the most user friendly page, but I eventually figured it out and received my email confirmation. Terrific! As we were on our way, I wanted to confirm the time and only then did I realize the rezzie was for Sunday, not Saturday...nightmare! We decided to give it a go anyway. As I walked in, I was greeted by the owner, Roseanne and explained my dilemma. Like the superwoman she was, she accommodated our party of three and we were seated right away. SUPER GOLD STAR! During tea service, Vampire Penguin is transformed into a quaint tea room with beautifully decorated tables and a sign out from notifying customers of the change in their venue. We ordered the King & Queen Tea Service and the hostess, Erica, was gracious, accommodating, and very friendly. Their selection of teas is plentiful with terrific descriptions. Erica even helped me choose between two teas and her suggestion was spot on. The teas we selected were London High Tea for the MIL, the Hubster was delighted with Key Lime Pie, and I ordered Candy Caramel (if you love the flavor of Carmel apples look no further). Service began with a toasted crumpet including butter and jam. A very yummy and different way for us to have started tea. We all agreed, however, it was a winner. Our lovely tiered service featured assorted sandwiches, scones, fresh strawberries and cream, and a beautiful dessert. This was a LOT of food, prepared deliciously and beautifully. The best part is that we had some treats to bring home to snack on later when our very happy bellies are hungry again! Thank you Roseanne and Erica for going above and beyond. Thank you for having a lovely tea room so close to home. I KNOW we will return soon...and I will ensure the next visit to double check the date!

I was really undecided on what I wanted and Brian recommended the Kiwi Basil fruit tea and it was really good.

Youngest son ordered the dirty boba and my oldest ordered cookies and cream milk tea and he said it was pretty good! Atmosphere was inviting and clean. Simple decor. They have some board games available. You have the option of ordering at the kiosk or with the staff. We'll definitely be back to try different menu options. :)

Definitely a spot I'd recommend to anyone looking for a satisfying drink and a great little dessert to go with it.

In fact even when you come in the store, the limited stuff they carry, you would feel that the rest of the things must have ran out because they were so good & now you have to make do with whatever is left.
