    Friend picked this place to meet up. GPS guided me directly to the back of the store, and i was able to find a parking spot there which is super. Walk into the place in the afternoon around 1:30, not many people there, 2 table downstairs and one table customer upstairs. The decoration is quite Asian and they even have a unique tea irregular tea table on the 2nd floor for kungfu tea! I'm impressed. I ordered their Dong Ding tea while friend got their mocha tea. She loves it! Though they claim they didn't add additional sugar but i guess the cream has sugar in it. I love my oolong tea! Taste like a real deal and the price is very reasonable! Even comparable to Shanghai China! We were there till almost 4 pm, and the staff comes to us asking whether we want some banana cake, as if not, she is going to throw it away. We happily took one for each from her, I'm grateful as i start to feel hungry. Love this place, definitely will come here again if I'm around the area.

    I love Kung Brew ! Unique food options and great seasonal drinks. I always recommend Kung Brew for matcha lovers because they know how to do it right!

    Conclusion: Kungbrew Café is a unique little coffee shop in Covington Ky. It has an interesting setup, with seating on three different floors of the building. Looks as if it was an old house at one point. They have preffesional grade coffee, and a large selction of Tea. Great place to go do some studying or hang out with a few friends. Larger groups, (more than 5) might be a little challenging due to the table setup. Check out the full review on our Instagram or TikTok @hunting_coffee

    What a hidden gem! Absolutely obsessed with this place and vibe. They have one of the best matcha's i've had in the Cincinnati area!! They make the matcha correctly, sifting and whisking and wow, what a treat! The owner was so sweet and the service was amazing. Will definitely be back :)

    I wandered in here to kill some time and I'm really glad I did. The space is cute and has some really interesting decor. Service was friendly and fast. They have some unique latte options available including lavender, which is a favorite of mine, and it was made well. I don't get to the area often but I would be happy to stop back in.

    Newly opened unique gem hidden in the heart of Mainstrausse, Covington, Kentucky. Kungbrew is filled with historical artifacts displaying the colorful, rich history of the ancient Chinese culture. Walking through the main floor and second floor, it felt like an art gallery taking you back in time. The staff were all so friendly and you can feel their energy as you walk through the door. My latte was on point. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to try their bubble tea!

    KungBrew is an amazing tea shop and cafe. I've been about 5-6 times now in the past month, and each time has been an amazing experience. I'm someone who absolutely loves tea and has a large collection of it-- the tea at KungBrew is the best I've ever had and without a doubt the best in the region, if not anywhere in the state. 5+ friends of mine who've had the tea services with me have reaffirmed this. The owners and staff at KungBrew are incredibly kind, walking you through the tea service and showing you how to properly prepare everything. The owner even offered a free tea service to my friends and I to our surprise one day, which was something I've never experienced before. It's even more special considering the stunning decor inside, I mean you won't find another place like it anywhere. The prices are great too-- a set of tea is $4 and a matcha latte is under $5, both of which are absolutely phenomenal prices for the quality. Coffee prices are also on par with/are lower than with other specialty shops in the area. The value is phenomenal! KB is a truly unique and intentional space that I really hope is here to stay. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a new experience in NKY!

    I do not know how to properly emphasize how kind and hospitable the team behind KungBrew is. We came in around 2:00, and they were out of Boba (it's all house made). At 4:00, we were offered a free sample by the manager to make up for the experience. The eclectic and calming vibes of the cafe itself is a great place to get work done (my favorite spot is by the windows!) Everything about this place screams inviting. This might be my all time favorite coffee shop in the tristate area. And that's saying something.

    Traditional floor seating - no shoes!

    Really nice interiors with HAND PAINTED mural walls. Antiques everywhere, and play nice music. Really like it here.

    Covington's new and much needed coffee shop. Love the service, consistent drink quality, and seasonal menu. Worth a stop!

    White rabbit latte! Seasonal option

    Stumbled upon this hidden gem, couldn't believe it was their opening weekend! What luck! Had their white rabbit latte, fantastic, but was blown away at all their tea options. The decorations were really amazing, I had to snap a quick pic of this full wall mural! A great spot to enjoy a gorgeous day out. Highly recommend.

I feel that this price was definitely worth the food and the atmosphere. Service is very quick, they bring a large bottle of water to the table so you don't run out as quickly. There are only 4 tables in the restaurant, so try to make a reservation online. Also, there is so much cute stuff to buy! Sanrio, anime, kpop and more. There was also a Kdrama playing on the big tv! I can't wait to come back here :)

    This place is a gem! This restaurant is very small, try to make a reservation if you can but they…read moredo have walk in dine in service. They also have quick carry out bubble tea service. It's a small restaurant filled with cute toys, plushies, figures, etc available for purchase. Parking is street parking around campus and can be difficult to find. There are some neighborhood side streets that you can find and walk over. We got a few dishes to try and they were all fantastic! I really liked the Curry Laksa, Nasi Lemak, and the Hong Kong chicken was crispy and seasoned very well. They offer so many different dishes and options and they're all made well. Their prices are affordable and their portions are quite big. I recommend trying dishes from each category, you can't go wrong. We also got a couple bobas and I get my usual, durian milk tea. They're one of the only places I know that has this flavor option and they make it well. Overall, the quality of food is great and tastes delicious. Staff is super nice, kind, and patient. We took a little bit longer to order but our server was so nice. Our server recommended a few dishes and we got a couple and those were fantastic! I would recommend this place for a casual date, small group, authentic dishes, and delicious boba. Overall, a very comfy, warm, and welcoming place for delicious food and I recommend it.

The service was good , the worker was nice enough and she made the drinks as well as working as a cashier so you got to appreciate that. I like how their menu has options like create your own tea with tons of different syrup and popping bubble options - it's also not too expensive. Their menu is not for the milk tea lover tho or the authentic bubble tea lover but if you love the fruit tea then this place is a gem! I got the earl grey black tea with pineapple and dragon fruit syrup and passion fruit popping bubbles - it was delicious not overly sweet and I liked how I could taste the notes of the black tea. I will be back and they have monthly rotating drinks.

This was the worst way to be giving out a flight to go... they toppled over and half of it spilled out as this carrier is not meant for the cups you have. They didn't fit and moved around. Having no tops or covers didn't help. For the fact that it's all to go ordering, not sure how you expect me to carry this in a car without making a mess. It was a waste of money since it all spilled out. It was beautiful and from what was left and I could taste it was creamy and good, but not happy about paying $15 for this just to have it spill all over, not to mention make a mess in my car. I should have asked for a refund right there but the girl was so nice and apologized that this was all they had and no lids saying I'm sorry know it's not ideal.
