I can't speak for the drinks, but I can say they have a nice selection of blind boxes including popular Labubu, to nommi, twinkle twinkle, crybaby, and more. I also appreciate that all of them also have a display so you can easily know how big they are and if they are a figurine or a keychain plush. The displays also seem like at least some of them can by bought outright or also potentially traded for. I got both a nommi and a twinkle twinkle and was very happy with the purchases. read more

We were pretty impressed by the variety if the menu here, especially with the variety of the smoothies. They also have a variety of sweet treats here, so we trued a pistachio macaron and really liked it. The prices here were pretty good compared to other bubble tea restaurants we like. We ordered a Hong Kong Milk Tea and loved it. The tea flavour was great and the tapioca had very nice texture. We also got the strawberry mango peach smoothie and it was amazing. The combination of fruits gave a really cool flavour but it still wasn't overly sweet. It was really cute the way the seal on top of our cups had a bunch of different circles with labels on them. The seating here is also really nice, with lots of comfortable booths. We had a great time here and would love to return! read more

L2 Lounge in Chinatown was the OG bubble tea place in Montreal. Like before bubble tea was cool, lol. This location has a special place in my heart because when I was living in Montreal I had a friend who liked all the things I liked and we would hang out at L2. We have since drifted apart after I left Montreal and our lives went in different directions, but I always think of her when I have a bubble tea at L2 ;) Anyway, I was back there recently and it's not too different from what I remembered it to be. They have a few more choices of drinks and toppings, and prices might have gone up a bit, but it's still the same. On my most recent visit I had a small Pina Colada ($4) with tapioca (additional $0.50). No added sugar. The drink was the right amount of sweetness. It was smooth and creamy with a strong pineapple and coconut flavour. The tapioca were soft and chewy, but not as numerous as I would have liked. There's free WiFi, the password is by the cash register. Service was polite and efficient. There's lots of seating, but the place is super popular so it fills up quickly and gets quite loud in there. It's full of teenagers and early 20-somethings, so I felt a bit old in there on my most recent visit, haha. Anyway, I like that L2 has actually seating because the other bubble tea places in Chinatown don't have any seating (Chatime, Presotea and Kabiga Thé). I'm glad that L2 Chinatown is still going strong after all these years :) read more

Their beverages come in small, large or ex-large sizes. I ordered the watermelon smoothie made with real fruits with a choice of milk or yogurt, but I'm glad they can make them without dairy. The smoothie was refreshing and sweet. Although I'm not a fan of the sakura pearls. Their texture is harder and chewier than tapioca pearls, and it feels unnatural. read more

This place is great! I love that you can grab drink and a meal and just sit there and play games for as long as you want. My friend and I were looking for a place to hang out and just drink and snack while we played uno and this place is perfect for that. Lots of other people come just to play games as a group. The line does get quite long but they serve you fairly quickly. I got the brown sugar boba and it was delicious. I also got the poutine because i just had to try it and it was decent. My friend got the fried pork chops and those I was really not a fan of. Would not re-order. A fan of this place! read more

L2 - Indoor seating - Bubble Tea Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Was really craving buckets and decided to try entice head high reviews, this place popped up on Google maps with pretty good reviews. Decided to try it, and here we are. The place has a sign on the Main Street and a staircase leading to a different floor behind it. They actually bubble tea place is located on the 2nd floor of this building. And it's hidden gem. It's the perfect place to study out get work done while seeing the Main Street at your fingertips. There actually buckets tasted great, hot and cold. The tapioca was fresh and tasty, def more authentic than your regular franchise location. Highly recommend it for all its diverse flavours. read more

This review is ONLY about the milk tea (I haven't tried their fruit tea). Though it was very busy due to their event collaboration, drinks were served with a reasonable wait. I got the oolong milk tea twice, and both times the tea was good, and the boba texture was quite good, as well (this is coming from a picky boba lover). I'm not from the area but I'll remember it for sure the next time I'm around! read more

Honestly, this is one the OGs starting the bubble tea craze in Montreal and they're still very popular. Every time I come here it's always at least a 20 minute wait and well worth the wait. The selection you have here is ridiculous. How do you want your boba tea today? The options are insaaaane. I went with a mango black tea with popping passion fruit. Delish. Well prepped. You can also order food here but never tried. Seating if you want to sit and chat but never bothered. Price is decent. read more

The drinks at this boba place were okay, but the boba balls in them were amazing! They had great texture. The wait was long for the drinks but I'd say it was somewhat worth it. I'd recommend. read more

Came here to get boba in Chinatown while visiting Montreal on a trip and unfortunately found it very underwhelming. I ordered the oolong milk tea and it was basically just milk with a hint of sugar / tea taste. My parents had a matcha milk tea and it was too powdery tasting and sweet even after asking for less sugar. Unfortunately this was definitely not for me due to inconsistency in the drinks and usage of powder flavor. Those who are in the area looking for milk tea that uses real tea I'm sure another store would better fit your needs! The service was great though and they were super nice and made things efficiently which bumps it up a star. read more

I came with two friends on a trip visiting from Toronto and we were craving bubble tea so we came here. We ordered the jasmine, taro, and matcha milk tea and they were all way too sweet and artificial tasting. It was "liquid death" as we called it because it was simply flavoured syrup. It's sad because we didn't even want to finish them (and didn't). We should've just gone to good ol' Chatime which was just down the street from here but our curiosity got the best of us. read more

We decided to check out L2 Lounge after having lunch in Chinatown. It's located on the second floor and overlooks the walking street, so it's nice to sit by the window and people watch if you don't get too cold sitting by windows (yep, I learned the hard way). They have a decently sized menu, complete with suggested drinks. The only problem was that not all of it is translated into English, so visitors like me are limited to ordering what is in English. I was impressed with all the toppings that are offered. In addition to boba, they offer toppings like grass jelly, coffee jelly pudding, fruit flavored popping boba and brown sugar balls. The drinks are a little powdery tasting, but they one ice cold in these really nice and big beer mugs, which is pretty cool. There is also a good menu, but I wasn't too impressed with the popcorn chicken or fried tofu. Both were a little bland. The one thing I really didn't like about this place was that they don't accept credit cards. Like what? This is 2018.... they accept cash and Canadian debit only... boo. read more

This lounge is definitely the place to be any night of the week. The teas and snacks here are great and the service is fast. You get to see the latest and greatest crazy Asian hairstyles and there are almost 100 different types of teas to choose from. My favorite are their shaken frothy teas, because many places do not have them. I love all of the different kinds, but still go back to the black milk shaken tea most often. When walking around Montreal Chinatown at night, look up on the upper floors to see which places would be the most fun to go to. You will quickly see that this teahouse is the busiest of all. I should have taken more photos, maybe next year. For some reason the Foosball table here is quite popular. read more

Fairly easy to miss this place but that could be said about a lot of Chinatown spots. Look for the magenta colored sign that says "L2" on it. Head up the stairs and then go left, then you're there. It was cash only but that was because their debit card machine broke. There was an ATM in the store so that was fairly helpful as we only had card and USD. I got the coffee milk tea with no bubbles. They also serve food and there's a foosball table inside too. read more

After wandering around downtown Montreal / chinatown, we decided it was time for bubbletea. My friend brought me to this upstairs taiwanese lounge to try out their drinks. Atmosphere: 3.5/5 Conveniently located and walkable from where I was staying. This spacious upstairs lounge has plenty of seating just for relaxing, studying or catching up. However, it was a little hard to tell from the exterior though that there was a bubbletea place upstairs. When we arrived in the late afternoon, it was not too busy and a bit dark, but I was told it does get busier. Overall satisfactory. Food: 3.5/5 I ordered an oolong milk tea regular size; overall tasted good and unsweetened just the way I like it; boba are extra $ Service: 3.5/5 overall friendly and efficient; unfortunately they only accept cash or debit Price: 3.5/5 reasonable and comparable to back home Overall: 3.5/5 Overall good bubble tea joint with some food options in a relaxed atmosphere in an upstairs lounge; conveniently located in downtown / chinatown. I would definitely consider returning for example as a late night non-alcoholic option! read more

L2 - Bubble Tea Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Had a huge boba craving during my vacay in Montreal so found this gem in Chinatown. Cute lounge with games you can play while you're there. There was a big anime convention happening during this time, there was a massive line but still managed to power through it within 10-20 minutes. Menu has a variety to choose from, but it's not in English. I found their English menu on their mobile website instead and ordered a large taro milk tea with bubbles. Although I prefer the actual tea than the bubble tea powder, it still was satisfying and would prob go again. read more

For me I have been in search of the best boba tea in Montreal and this could rank up for me so far as one of the best. It's location is in Chinatown and surprisingly right across the street a Chatime has popped up! Talk about direct competition! They must have not been happy when someone opens up right across from you! As a yardstick I use Chatime for my boba. The reason being is that Chatime leads in personalization. You can set your levels of sugar and ice to your desire. Therefore. I was quite skeptical if something could top Chatime. Ladies and gentlemen, I have only tried one but I'm impressed so far. One my visit I ordered a L milk tea with grass jelly. The drink was fresh had a wonderful tea flavour and the grass jelly was just perfect consistency. Overall this drink was a solid 4/5. L2 lounge also has a great area for hanging out and small HK style plates of Asian snacks. If I was a young hungry student I'd come study or hang out at a place like this on a consistent basis! WIFI also available. I must come back to sample more and will update my review. read more

L2 - Bubble Tea Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

L2 Lounge occupies second place on my list of favourite bubble tea places in Montreal. It's a bit of a struggle between them, Magic Idea, and To Go Bubble Tea. I love the consistency of the bubbles here, they're just the right amount of chewy firmness. Not too tough, and not too amorphous, the perfect sweet spot that not a lot of places can hit. I always go for the Mint Chocolate milk tea (because there's no actual tea, and it's sweet of course). Like most of these flavours, you can sense the artifice pretty quickly, but it's still enjoyable. Friends who've tried real fruit flavours have reported good experiences here as well. Don't forget to pick up a loyalty punch card while you're here, after 8 teas you get a free small bubble tea, after the next 8 another small, and after the third 8 you get a large bubble tea. Remember to bring cash, or debit, they don't accept credit cards here. read more

Really pleased with this little find! Once again, this was a Yelp find, and it was a winner. We were on the hunt for boba (or, bubble drinks, as they were called in Montreal), and neither of us had any real interest in taking a shot in the dark on something like this. Call me overly cautious, but I didn't want to chance some of the smaller shops the night before we were set to be on a plane for 5 hours. At any rate, we found this place because of Yelp, and climbed the stairs to the top floor. That floor has both this dessert lounge (on the left) and an interesting-looking massage place on the right. Heh. The restaurant is fairly large, with several tables and a small internet cafe, as well as a pastry case and the drink station. There were two girls working the counter the night we went, and thank goodness the girl taking our order had the patience of a saint. The menu was in French. We can't read or understand French, but we were giving it our best go. The girl asked what we were looking for, so I asked if she could make me a coconut-strawberry boba snow bubble. We had a brief discussion as to what, exactly, made a "snow bubble" before she told me she understood, and that they absolutely could do that for me. The hubs ordered the lychee snow bubble with boba. They used fresh fruit and whirred up the drinks in no time. They were fast and efficient, and the resulting drinks were delicious - about as good as anything I'd find back home. Had we found this place earlier in our short trip, we probably would have visited them more than once. Would highly recommend them for the drinks and the service, though! read more

Our go to place for bubble tea in Montreal! We tried different bubble tea places in Montreal but honestly nothing beats this place. I don't know where the magic is but there is definitely some magic that makes the drinks here way more better than the rest. Come here and give yourself a treat. :D read more

I've been there so many times haha Growing up in Montreal, this was the chilling spot. Today was cold outside. Surprisingly they served HOT BUBBLE TEA, oh yeah We went for the Hot oolong milk tea and Hot Jasmine milk tea. Both are incredible. I am a tea lover. Warm me up well. I also had a poutine lol *cough poutine week. Great place, Lively staff. They love what they do. The lounge is non-discriminatory, which is pretty cool. All kinds of people go from cosplayers to business man. Baby-foot table available, games, etc. Really nice place to have a good chat or fun with friends while enjoying bubble tea and snacks. One of the only "late night" chill spot in Chinatown/ downtown, which doesn't involve alcohol. Strongly recommend. PS.: Fresh Watermelon Juice, so damn good, but that's a secret between you and me. Please leave some for me haha ~~~ read more

We need a bubble tea lounge in NYC. Montreal is waaaay ahead of us. L2 is clean, spacious, and chill. It's opened late nights (until 12am/1am), has a foosball table, and serves Taiwanese snacks and bubble tea in HUGE beer mugs. It doesn't get much better than that! They also double (triple?) as an internet cafe with a few computers by the foosball table. read more

Hidden gem! Not easy to find. I order passion fruit green tea with tapioca. The tapioca is good. The green tea is kind of too sweet. It would taste better if order less sugar or 50% sugar. There has plenty of seats for you and friends to chill and chat. Very comfortable place for a break stop. You can also order other Taiwanese snacks like crispy chicken. read more

Disappointed by the thai milk tea. I didn't expect it to taste authentic, but in no way should thai milk tea taste like melon - which it did. All their drinks seem to be made from powdered mix. Long wait times (from my experience) due to understaffing. There were probably about 30 guests in the dine-in area, and around ten at a time for take-out, with only one worker making the drinks. read more

Great for bubble tea! Went there with my colleagues and it was super fun! The order placing is a tad bit complicated and our server wasn't that helpful so hence, I knocked off a star for that! She was putting constraints and not letting us get combinations we wanted.. How to: pick a base tea, flavour and then toppings. Constraints on base+flavour.. you can't have certain flavours with certain bases.. :( Final product: bit too much of ice which might be scary to people worried about hygiene but I am alive and didn't get sick so idk if I got lucky or the place takes care.. Location: Slightly dingy and difficult to figure out where since it's on the first floor in a shopping complex sort of building except there's just a massage parlour opposite it. Not a complex. Ambience/Service : Bit shady but it's a lounge and we went in the middle of the afternoon.. So the place might get more hip/exciting during the evening.. There are screens with games so you can keep yourself busy if you wish while waiting for the order.. The order did take sometime to get prepared given there was barely any other customer :/ Price/Quantity: Large is HUGE so go for regular! Prices are reasonable for the quantity! It'd fill you up! Will I go there again: Yes! I had a good time there and the bubble teas were delicious and worth the price! :) read more

Located in Chinatown. Nice place for me and my friend to get together first and then shop some Chinese Grocery nearby. The milk tea taste fresh and non-artificial. Wide choices of Taiwanese and Chinese snacks, with inexpensive price, and good for friends to share. I like winter-melon milk tea with savory&sweet milk foam to drink and popcorn chicken as snack. One draw back is the ice crashing was too loud. We had to relocate ourselves far away from the counter to continue the conversation. There are some board games but I didn't play. I can totally picture myself playing cards with friends in a causal afternoon here. read more

The oolong milk tea tastes sweet and bland. Nothing special except you can taste sugar mix with water.

I got the mango green tea with boba and it was delicious and refreshing. My boyfriend got the strawberry milk tea and it was fairly watery to say the least, thus the 3 instead of 4 stars. I'd definitely try the other fruit teas but I'm skeptical of the other milk teas. read more

The bubble tea here was pretty good. I wish they gave a little more boba. I ordered the avocado smoothie. It wasn't too sweet, had enough avocados, wasn't watery or too thick, and it was cold (usually some places serve warm). They had a lot of choices to choose from. They take Canadian debit only or cash, also there's an ATM inside. You have to go upstairs to get to this place. read more

After years of trying out their different bubble tea flavors and styles, I decided to give their banana tapioca a try. And wow, it is just as good if not better than their already perfect bubble tea. The tapioca is soft and chewy while the flavor of the banana is soothing, light and gives off this heavenly scent at the same time. Ah, perfection. They truly deserve a 5 star just for their mastery of these delicious wonderful drinks. read more

Given the fact that I used to work there, now that I know the behind-the-scenes of the BBT making, I know why people keep coming back. For the slushies, they use fresh fruits, and they have a huge selection of them. You can always ask them if they can make a particular Asian drink (i.e. "red bean ice"), they'll tell you they'd try, and voila! A new drink just for you. The people there are always friendly and extremely efficient. Definitely worth your time. read more
