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.

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!

I ordered a large okinawa mt with boba, a bit sweet but really good boba. The cashier was friendly and there were nice vibes to sit and hang.

Hot Milk tea with tapioca

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Boba tea menu

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.

Cozy place for a bubble tea in the heart of Chinatown. I ordered a classic bubble tea but they had way more stuff like juices and desserts. Reasonably priced.

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

The Short Version: Bubble tea kiosk inside this mini food…read morehall in Old Montreal. I was shocked that in this touristy area I was able to score a bubble tea for $3.99. It was good too. The Long Version: I love bubble tea and always endeavour to try new bubble tea places whether at home or on vacation. One Babo was founded in Montreal, QC. I only later learned (after my visit) that it used to be called One More Thé, which was famous for its fat and short cups. I had bubble tea at One More Thé when they had a location in Les Cours Mont-Royal and I enjoyed it. Anyway, the One Babo location I went to no longer uses short fat cups, but just regular cups and they are paper which is the trend these days. Great for the environment, so I support, but less photogenic for sure, lol. The straw was plastic so it pierced the lid easily and I didn't make a mess which I always do with paper straws. I ordered at the ordering kiosk and was surprised to see they had promotional drinks for only $3.99. Well, I was all over that. Haha. I looked at the different varieties and they had a dragon fruit tea with green tea popping boba, which is what I got. I wanted zero sugar and less ice but there wasn't an option to indicate this at the kiosk, but the staff member said I could let her know the modifications and she would make it accordingly. When you say no sugar here, it truly is no sugar! I have found that at most bubble tea shops their base tea is already somewhat sweet so even when I order no sugar, it's still sweet, but not here. The tea was completely unsweetened even a bit bitter. My bad, lol. The popping boba added a splash of sweetness, but in the future, knowing what I know now, I will get a quarter sweet. I still enjoyed the drink and it had a potent tea flavour which I liked. Service was pleasant and the staff pointed out to me that the print on the cup was an Old Montreal landscape since their location is in Old Montreal. What a nice touch. This location is inside a mini food hall called Le Coin Gourmand. Other businesses in the food hall are Hectare Cafe (a Carribean coffee shop), Mel'Oui (a sandwich shop) and Quan An (a Vietnamese restaurant). In addition to bubble tea, they also sell food. I'll need to return to try their food and check out the other businesses (my husband did get a coffee at Hectare Cafe while I was at One Babo, but I want to try their Haitian pastries). Oh and I'll gladly try another drink at One Babo. Hopefully they continue to have some at promotional prices, lol. Review #211 (2025)

In the simplest form, this is cheap, reliable, and gets you your bubble tea fix. It's not the best…read morethat I've tried, but it's also not the worst. It's purely that -- ok. Service-wise, it was great. Simple, fast, and ready with a bubble tea in your hand within a minute or two. The store is not a sit-down spot, but more of a small stall where you grab and go. I've been to several Chatime shops in the States, so I have an idea of what to expect and it's pretty much how Chatimes are rated in the States as well. We stopped by while going to nearby Old Montreal and happened to walk into Chinatown. I wanted to see what Chinatown in Montreal was like and truly got an idea for it. It's busy and all the stores are bustling and open crazy late -- just like this spot. This spot is open 24/7, which is unheard of in the other Chinatowns that I've been to in my life. We tried Presotea near our hotel so right away we had an idea of which bubble tea shop was considered higher-end/pricier. This spot was definitely for the cost-saving person who just wants a quick fix of bubble tea. The difference between the two is obvious. I ordered regular milk tea with the QQ topping. I like the QQ topping (which is nata de coco jelly with regular tapioca). It's half lychee jelly and half black pearls. The bubbles did not have the flavor that the Presotea bubbles had. Chatime is simply plain with no taste in their bubbles, which is fine. Tea-wise - I could not immediately tell the difference. However, in the end, each shop is meant for two different people.

Absolutely delicious! I tried the Mango Solar Bubble Tea and the Matcha Red Bean, and both were…read moreamazing! The Mango Solar Bubble Tea was super refreshing -- the mango flavor was vibrant and real, not artificial at all. The bubbles were perfectly chewy and added a fun touch to every sip. It felt like sunshine in a cup! The Matcha Red Bean was a beautiful balance of earthy matcha and sweet red beans. The matcha wasn't bitter, and the creaminess paired so well with the chewy red bean bits. A must-try if you love authentic matcha drinks. Friendly service, fresh ingredients, and unique flavors -- I'll definitely be back!
