    Gelato - ferrero rocher, matcha, mango
    Carol Y.

    Came back a week later to more flavours! Uji matcha and mango are still my top faves, but the strawberry, pistachio, & black sesame are fantastic too!!

    Came here for their watermelon slush and brown sugar milk tea. They were out of the brown sugar milk tea, but said if I really want it, I can wait for 10 minutes until they brew a fresh batch of milk tea. I was willing to wait. It wasn't busy, but I could see there was 2 people waiting ahead of me for their drinks. So while I was waiting I went across to Miss Lin to grab their egg waffles. After 10-15 minutes, I got my egg waffles and went back to M cha bar to get my drink. As I was walking there, the second person who was waiting ahead of me left the place, so I guess my drink would be made next. Nope. They were making two more other drinks before they got to me. I think I waited another 10 minutes before finally getting my drink. Total wait time = 25-30minutes. The drinks were good, the tapioca was chewy and soft, which I enjoyed since I don't always get toppings in my drink. I really liked the brown sugar milk tea, I'd say it's better than most places. With only two people working, they really should get a third person, as it does tend to get busy and they can get overwhelmed with orders.

    M Cha is located in a plaza rich with other bubble tea places. If it can't measure up, it might have to go with the competition nearby. Unlike other tea places, they also have a full menu of coffee and espresso related drinks in addition to teas, juices, and slush. I ordered a hisbiscus tea without any toppings in it. It felt a lot more juice-like than tea and was really sweet. Would probably try something else next time. There were a few tables there but seemed like more of a grab and go place.

    We love this drink so much that all of us ordered the same drink!!

    Let's talk about one of my fav fruity bbt!! I love M Cha Bar's mango pomelo with taro balls so much!! They use fresh fruit -- mango, pomelo, strawberries etc. The drink itself is slushy mango drink with toppings of taro balls!! Omg, one of my fav toppings is taro balls and it actually comes with the drink!! Also, the fruit itself is sweet enough, I chose 0% sugar and the drink was just right!! I remembered I tried one of their coconut taro drink before, it was also very heavenly!! Come check it out! They have several locations and I went to the one in Markham: 3621 Highway 7, unit 122, Markham Follow me on IG @eatntravelrepeat for more food adventures!!

    Great drink! Vegan options available! Great staff! We had the taro coconut milkshake with taro and sweet potatoes balls. Apparently everything is freshly made in house! The staff reassured me that the drink does not have dairy as I am allergic to it. She also suggested that we can also omit items if i am concerned. The drink was delicious and not too sweet (which is perfect for my liking)! My only feedback would be for them to add options for hot drinks like the location in Scarborough!

    Honestly I know this is know but this is one of the worst bubble teas I ever had in my life, I know everyone is trying to copy onezo but you can't put perfect the master and this place drastically failed at that, the brown sugar milk tea tasted like they put water in it, and less milk tea and the brown sugar tapioca tasted terrible, poor texture can't taste the brown sugar never coming back here that's for sure, just going to the safe spots like chatime and onezo

    What we got and ratings: Osmanthus Green Milk Tea (w fermented rice, osmanthus jelly) $6.77 & 5 stars Jasmine Milk Tea (w tapioca pearls), nothing special around $6 Orea Slush (w tapioca pearls), expensive for $7.30

    M cha bar has now become my favourite bubble tea spot. They have an amazing assortment of drinks that I haven't heard of from other locations. My favourites have to be the soybean crema (50% sugar) and the mango pomelo sago (30% sugar). They are absolutely amazing and the L is huge!! I definitely recommend checking this place out

For me, the drink itself is about 4/5 (barley milk tea), but my overall experience is what brings this up to a 5. When I walked in, I was greeted with the staff there who were very friendly. I wasn't sure what I wanted, so I had stepped aside to look at the menu. They noticed and didn't pressure me in taking my order, but instead asked if I had any questions and had let me smell the tea leaves. For a more upscale bubble tea store, I appreciated that very much. I ended up getting the barley milk tea, and the flavour did not disappoint. The barley taste definitely came through, and it wasn't too sweet. Note: for sweetness level, get one lower than what you normally get. Trust me :) Overall I would come back when I'm in the area and craving for bubble tea to try other drinks. The only negative is that I wished they had barley as a topping, but overall the topping upcharge is pretty expensive than average. But recommend to give this place a try!

    Been coming here ever since I found out about True Boss and its healthy and delicious vinegar…read moreenzyme drinks. I was into learning more about gut health during that time, and I realized I really dislike drinking apple cider vinegar (on its own) from those health food retail stores. True boss has at least 4 different types of fruit vinegar enzymes on the menu (apple, cranberry, peach, plum) and I absolutely fell in love with the Sparkling Plum Vinegar Infusion drink with added aloe dices. (If you are adventurous, go for 30% to no sugar!) There are also tea versions; you can pair it with sparkling, yakult or tea on its own. From all the overeating, my stomach (bloating) feels better after drinking True Boss. It is definitely a healthier alternative as compared to regular bubble tea. My gut thanks me :3

    Another Yelp listing blunder. Someone at Yelp decided to merge the Yelp Elite event listing with…read morethe regular True Boss listing. Yelp then kept the other one and deleted the original True Boss listing. I now have two reviews, one for the Yelp event and another for being a regular True Boss customer, under the elite event. Ugh! I created a new True Boss listing. Let's see what happens next. Tips: - Street parking is limited. There is parking behind the building, by the condos. Guest parking gives you thirty minutes. You can also park across the street in the plaza with Whole Foods. - Sparking infusion drinks don't have tea. A recent Yelp experience introduced me to True Boss. I've been back a couple of times since then. This drink place is where Kung Fu Tea used to be. It's across from the plaza that I frequent often with Whole Foods anchoring it. Parking on the street is limited. It's the one thing that I don't like about downtown Markham, especially this area closer to Highway 7. You do have the option of parking at the plaza with lots of parking. I parked in a visitor parking spot behind this building. It's where condos are and is probably closer. I then walked over with my umbrella. I was the only person at this store when I first visited it. Eric was manning it. He was friendly and awesome to talk to. Eric took the time to explain the drinks that I could get. He was also great letting me know what the top drinks were. What's cool about True Boss is that it specializes in vinegar in its drinks. He asked me whether I have had apple cider vinegar. I have. I never really like it. I realized why. I had it with no sugar. He recommended 20% sugar to make it easier to down. I was game. I went with the safe starter for those who haven't had vinegar in their drinks. I got the peach vinegar infusion with oolong tea with 20% sugar and less ice. I noticed that there was a sparkling drink on the menu. I couldn't have this peach drink with sparkling water because it's tea-based. If it's a water-based drink, I could. In an unexpected move, he said that he'd give me a smaller sparkling drink on the house. He made me a sparkling plum vinegar infusion. It was so generous. If you know me somewhat well, I am a sparkling drink person. This place uses Canada Dry soda for the carbonation. He let me know that using SodaStream makes the drink go flat faster. I went with plum. He nodded. He said that most people wouldn't choose plum. It's his favourite. We are both Cantonese. It's probably why we both liked it because dried plums are a thing. I drank the sparkling plum vinegar infusion first. It was excellent. The vinegar was subtle. The plum flavour was delicious. I loved the carbonation. It was perfect. He said that I could enjoy the other drink later. It would be fine the following day. I had it after a rather hardy lunch today. Vinegar is good for digestion and is energizing. Cool! I loved the peach vinegar infusion with oolong tea. I didn't find it overly sweet. Again, the vinegar was subtle, but it brought a slight tanginess to the drink. The peach flavour was good. I barely tasted the oolong tea, though. I like tea strong, but I was fine having it take a backseat. It was refreshing and enjoyable. There were plenty of places to sit down and enjoy your drinks. I did it briefly. I got a glass tumbler with a straw for free. It was unexpected and generous. All my grab-and-go tumbers are glass. I like that True Boss provides an alternative to my usual bubble tea places in this area. I frequent Comebuy and Chatime often. It's nice to have this place join in the mix. I've been back for sparkling infused drinks. The cranberry is excellent. I feel that it helps with my stomach ulcer that I've had for the past few days. I loved my experience here. Staff are super nice and I like having healthy drinks. (158)

First impressions, the store is clean and neat with all the teas out for display and all the employees working seamlessly to fulfil orders. It was nice to see it being made fresh right in front of us. The staff was kind and answered any questions we had. I ordered one of their recommended teas, the Oolong Ding Dong Tea latte and I really enjoyed it. The tea was strong and was balanced so well by the fresh milk. The only downside for me is it only comes in one size! The pricing is a little on the more expensive side since it does only come in the small size as well so I can't feel justified getting Chicha San Chen too often. But I do see why they won all their awards! Try it out, you won't regret it if you like a strong and balanced milk tea flavour.

I was craving my usual from Bourbon St. Grill and hit the food court. While heading downstairs after walking through mall entrance 3, I saw this Chicha San Chen store. I flagged it for a visit. After having a satisfying, casual meal at the food court, I returned to the second floor and walked over here to check out the drinks. It was almost as if this store knew that I like fruit and sparkling drinks. I saw a sign that said I could get two sparkling fruit drinks for $10. Three words: Sign me up! I got Kinson at the ordering area. He was great stepping me through everything. I let him know that this promotion interested me. He asked if I wanted one of each fruit flavour. Yes! My order consisted of the following: - Sparkling orange - Sparkling peach Each drink contains fruit, sparkling water, and konjac. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and I was done. He let me know that it wouldn't take long for my drinks to be made. The wait time wasn't much. The seating area had just cleared, so I could take photos of the branded throw pillows, various decorated bear figures holding tea cups in slings, and a wall celebrating a hundred years of tea love. It's my kind of tea joint. I stood next to looseleaf teas in mini containers. I smelled a number of them as I waited. They were so fragrant that I didn't want to leave! I love smelling these teas: - Cassia black - Dong ding oolong - Green - Black - Osmanthus oolong - High mountain pouchong My drinks came in one size. It seemed to be the case for all drinks on the menu. I like that you can customize your drink. There's a menu that steps you through it, from the type of tea that you want brewed, to the flavours and toppings that you want in it. If you find this method to be too complicated, it does have popular teas that are already configured, so you don't have to. I liked that I didn't have to fuss with my order. It was exactly what I wanted. My receipt had a number on it. Their system has an automated voice that calls out your order number. it was a nice change of pace. I could clearly hear my order number called out. I'm sure staff were happy to save their vocal cords, too. My drinks were on the counter. You can help yourself to a tray, which I did. My drinks looked good. What I should have done was sipped both before walking to my car. This place was so generous with the pour that my drinks were topped to the brim. One of my drinks did spill out a bit as I was about to go through the doors. Oops. I stopped to sip both of them. I was good! I got to my car and safely put my drinks down in my caddy. Just from sipping them, I loved the flavours so much. The orange one had slices of orange and chewy konjac. It was slightly sweet and fizzy. It was cheerful to drink. I had the orange slices, minus the peel, of course. Yum! The peach drink was equally as awesome. It was bubbly, with generous chunks of peach and konjac. It was fruity and chewy. So good! Both were so refreshing on a hot July evening. I'm glad that I got two drinks. I enjoyed my first two drinks from this tea place. I'll be back for more! (301)

You must use the kiosk. - This place is on Fantuan, but doesn't offer the full drink menu that you see in the store. - Most drinks are regular in size. Only a handful are large. Last Monday, after work, I was in downtown Markham. I was driving up Birchmount Avenue, just before Highway 7. I pulled into a parking spot on the street. It was my first time parking here. I thought that I'd check out the businesses and remembered Machi Machi. You can also park in the plaza. Machi Machi is across from Panera Bread. There's lot of parking. It was the last bubble tea store in downtown Markham that I had yet to visit. It was time. The store has a couple of steps to get to the door that faces Birchmount Avenue. It also has a ramp. I took the steps going in. There is no hand rail. I left using the ramp, which seemed spacious enough for a wheelchair. I entered the store. There were two folks ahead of me at the kiosk to place orders. No one was behind the counter taking orders, so your kiosk is your best bet. There was a group of four folks waiting for their orders next to us. I also saw seating off to the right and left. They are limited. You get three seats on either side of the order area. I was order number 29 with these items: - Fizzy plum green tea (fixed sugar and ice) - Coconut lime strawberry smoothie (light sugar and fixed ice) Both were regular in size. There are few drinks that are large. Customizations aren't as flexible as other bubble tea places. They are my reasons why this place doesn't get a five-star review. It was such a nice day outside that due to demand for cold drinks here, it took long to get my drinks. The woman in front of me decided to go outside. It was weird to me. If I had a drink waiting for me and I'm a party of one, I'd be inside the store, waiting for my number to be called. Sure enough, order number 28 was called. I said that I was number 29 when the woman looked at me. I was standing by the glass window. It's all glass, which was nice seeing the sunshine come in, but it also heated up the place. I lightly tapped on the glass. Number 28 heard me. I pointed to her to come inside. She did. This woman was extremely introverted. She got to the counter and didn't say a thing. I went around and got the attention of a nice female staffer. I said that 28 was here. She nodded and got 28's drink. 28 was happy. Both thanked me. It was my good deed of the day. My order was ready. My good deed helped. The female staffer asked if I wanted a bag. I said yes. I got it for free. I thanked her and left with my bag of drinks and straws. I immediately had the fizzy plum green tea. I love fizzy drinks. This one was awesome. The plum flavour was excellent with the green tea. It was refreshing, fizzy, and perfect. I drank it as I drove to fetch some takeout before heading home. I had the coconut lime strawberry smoothie after dinner. It tasted tropical and delicious. The flavours were so good. Excellent! I'd get both drinks again. I'd also love to try more items on the menu. I had a wonderful first experience here. (166)

I wasn't able to see which beans they used for the espresso, but overall, their roast seems to be a bit darker/stronger, which balances out a sweeter latte well. I tried the iced biscoff and pistachio lattes. The biscoff is slightly sweeter and nuttier - definitely my fave of the two. The pistachio latte, in contrast, was disappointing. It was $1 more than the biscoff latte, looked nothing like the photo on the counter, and didn't taste much of pistachio at all.

The Signature Grass Jelly Milk Tea is milk tea with grass/mesona/herbal jelly, coconut jelly, tapioca, red beans, and raisins. I think it's supposed to have oats too, but they ran out. I really enjoyed this drink because I love different textures in my food, but I think some people may find this drink weird and that there's too much going on. I love desserts like Halo-Halo, Ais Kacang, and Che Ba Mau, and I think if you like these types of desserts then you would like the Signature Grass Jelly Milk Tea at Shuyi. The milk tea was rich and creamy. The toppings were delicious. They give you a lot of grass jelly, which has a soft gelatinous texture. The coconut jelly was firm and chewy. The tapioca (I didn't get very much unfortunately) were softer than a most places, but still chewy and tasty. They were a light yellow colour instead of the usual dark brown. The red beans were soft but not too mushy. The raisins were sweet and chewy. They were golden raisins. The drink did not look as pretty as in their advertisements, lol, but I guess it's the taste that counts. Service was nice and also quick. They share their space with a restaurant called Szechuan Beef Pot. It's in a strip mall with free parking. I would definitely come back to have this drink again.
