    I'd tried the King of Mango Smoothie from the Richmond location of Macu Tea. This was my first time trying it from the Burnaby location. Last time we had King of Mango Smoothies, my dear husband had lined up at the one in Richmond and brought them home for us to try. Including the time he spent lining up, and the time he spent waiting for the drink to be made after he finally ordered it...he said it was about 45 minutes wait altogether. I was pleasantly surprised to find that our waiting time at this location wasn't nearly as bad. There was still a lineup, but including the time in the lineup and the time we spent waiting for our order to be made, it was about 20 minutes altogether. So...not nearly as bad as what he went through in Richmond! Love, love, love their King of Mango Smoothie! No surprise that it's their Number 1 drink. I saw someone else write that the ordering system is electronic only and that they didn't think that they accepted cash at this place. I can say that they do take in person orders, cuz we placed our order with an actual person rather than at the electronic kiosk. Also, they do take cash cuz...I paid with cash! Parking: Plentiful and free Service: Good

    This is my new favorite beverage shop in Vancouver now. Their signature mango drinks are amazing. So far I have tried their D01, D02, and D03 multiple times. Of the three, Chi-Chi Mango Smoothie wins for me because that cream foam is absolutely delightful. At a different location, I have also tried D04, which is the Chi-Chi Strawberry Smoothie. This was not as good as the mango, but still excellent. They call this series Drinking Dessert and I can see why. After the end of a great meal, I rather drink these beverages than eat most other desserts. So refreshingly good. There are often lines, but it moves relatively quick.

    Decided to try Macu Tea after my sister mentioned it was popular and had good reviews. There was a line out the door when we arrived and for good reason. Even with the line, it moved quickly. They use a machine to take orders so it's quick and efficient. We waited about 10 minutes for our drinks. Staff is really efficient. The shop is small but has a few two seater tables if you want to sit for a bit. It's clean and bright. It looks like the shop is known for their fruit teas and have seasonal flavours. Right now is the Kyoho grape smoothies so we got both the chi-chi grape smoothie (cheese foam on top) and the bo-bo grape smoothie (agar bubbles). We also grabbed a chi-chi strawberry smoothie (cheese foam on top). Drinks were fresh and just the perfect amount of sweetness and smoothness. All 3 were delicious. We'll definitely come back if we're in the area.

    I have only been able to try the taro and the strawberry as their menu is seasonal for fresh items, but those two have been some of the best bubble tea that I've had in a long time. I feel like my money is shown in the quality of their ingredients and it is worth the weight. I know it can seem daunting but trust me it is delicious. I can't wait to try the mango ones as it is about in season now.

    Food: 5/5 - if you LOVE strawberries or mangos, this is a must visit for cool and refreshing dessert drinks or milk tea drinks. I love anything mango, so I tried their mango smoothie with fresh mango and green tea jelly. There's only one size. A bit on the pricey side but worth it! Ambiance: 5/5 a nice and clean ambience to the place with some seating. Service: 5/5 - you can place your order on the machine or there is someone taking orders. There can be long lineups but it goes quickly. They're located in the orchard shopping mall off Kingsway and Willingdon. There's free parking in the lot. I'll be back again and again.

    Expensive but the grape tea and the king of mango tea are always so good - so worth the money!

    I tried the King of Mango smoothie and my partner got the Tieguanyin Oolong Milk Tea and added the green tea jelly. Macu Tea is my favourite bubble tea spot now! Yifang being the predecessor. The King of Mango smoothie is so good and worth the price. The mangoes they use are fresh and extremely ripe. It's icy like a slushie, flavourful and sweet from the fresh mangoes, and the green tea jelly is phenomenal. The steep in the jelly is perfect and it complements the drink so well. The ratio of coconut milk is also perfection and doesn't overpower the mango. It tastes like you're drinking a mango. The oolong milk tea also has to be one of the best milk teas from a bubble tea spot I've had! The steep is strong! Perfect ratio of milk. The green tea jelly didn't go too well with this drink as the oolong overpowered the green tea though. I think it would be perfect with pearls instead! It's very crowded in this shop. There are some seats but most people use it to sit while waiting for their drink. The lineup tends to be long. I went twice an hour before closing and the lineup still took 30 minutes or more each. It's 100% worth the wait in my opinion. Give in to the hype!! lol

    My wife and I tried this location while visiting from Bellevue, WA and it was very good! If you're looking for a nice summery drink, check this place out. It's located at Willingdon and Kingsway. I had the Chi-Chi Mango Smoothie and she had the Chi-Chi Strawberry Smoothie. Both were delicious especially the green tea jelly and Chi-Chi topping, which is their sweet and salty cream. They also use fresh mangoes and strawberries. You can see all the boxes of strawberries at the front counter so definitely fresh. So good!

    Love that they use fresh fruits. Anything with chichi is delicious! The line is always long but it's worth the wait.
