It's a beautifully decorated and aesthetically pleasing space with plenty of seating and even the bathrooms were nice and definitely well-maintained. I had the Coconut Cloud with Matcha and it was perfectly refreshing. I also sampled the Biscoffee and it had a strong espresso flavor that was well complemented by the sweet cookie butter flavor. The bungeoppang was freshly prepared and well worth the $5.50 for 2; the hotteok flavor was my favorite. Overall, Peak is a wonderful space and a comfy place to study in. No wifi on Sundays though!

The Bischoffee or Banana Latte or Corn Coffee were all very tempting but I went for my preferred drink these days Strawberry Matcha although as I stood there waiting for my drink (which quite a bit longer than my friends American) I was regretting not trying one of their insane looking coffee drinks (aka deserts). My BF said his Americano was excellent, not acidic or bitter in any way. My strawberry matcha was good, a bit too jammy, but not cloyingly sweet although the matcha itself was mildly flavored, it was highly caffeinated since it kept me from falling asleep at my regular time. If I was in the area I'd absolutely go back there again.

They had the basics - chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry. Every time I asked for something, they didn't have it. Inside was cute but the counters were sticky. I placed my phone down and it was covered in syrup. The shave ice my friend and her daughter got was big. Good fix if you like a snow cone. Definitely different compared to the Hawaiian shave ice that I'm familiar with.

As for the dessert itself it was okay. We got the hojicha and jasmine green milk shaved ice. Tbh they were both okay.

Idk if I love it but it's not bad; however, I think would much rather have had it in drink form. That being said, I was between a 3 and 4 but mewame is such a tough name I had to give them a 4. Very good interior design too!

I booked this truck for our baby shower in two weeks so I wanted to give them a try first. The lady working the truck at the Farmers Market was very nice and answer any follow up questions I asked after I told her I booked the truck for our baby shower. I waited for my nephew to join me and then we ordered our cup. We went with the klassic cup because the weather was kind of cold. I went with the groovy grape, ninja cherry and watermelon wave on my cup. I believe my nephew went with the monkey business, flavor of the day and tiger blood for his. We enjoyed our shaved ice. I didn't put a lot of flavor on mine so when I ate half of my cup, I went back to ask if I could add more flavor and the lady said I could. I had a great time eating the shaved ice and I can't wait for people at our baby shower to try it. Hopefully the weather will be on the not so cold side. The price for booking them is also very reasonable and they answer quickly to any questions over email.

I had a wonderful experience at Sugar Fix Boba Cafe! I usually come to this plaza either to stop by…read moreEmle's or to go to the nearby Ipostal branch and I always eye Sugar Fix but have never had time to stop by. Today I was in the plaza during rush hour and I was soooo thirsty and I knew that my drive would be long so I decided to finally stop in and grab a drink! Upon entering I was greeted by friendly staff and she explained to me about the different teas, I asked what is refreshing and what most people like the most and she told me it's between the mango dragonfruit or the Passion fruit strawberry. I decided to go with the Mango Dragonfruit Jasmine ice tea. She offered me boba, popping boba, or custard add ons but I was just thirsty so I got it plain. Also it is awesome that you can choose how sweet you want to make your drink. I prefer drinks that are not very sweet so I got mine at 25% sweetness. The options are 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%. At 25% I felt that my drink was perfect to my tastes! I went with the large size because I wanted my drink to last until I got home. Surprisingly I didn't have to wait very long, almost a minute after I ordered my drink was already ready to go! I don't think I've ever had a Jasmine tea before so on my first sip I was surprised that I could actually taste the jasmine flower as an undertone to the mango and dragonfruit, but it really tastes delicious and refreshed me! The menu is large and there are many options. Now that I know you can bet I might be stopping by here every time I'm in the plaza!

Very disappointing and unprofessional experience. Instead of handling a payment issue privately,…read morethe staff chose to yell about it in front of other customers, which was completely unnecessary and embarrassing. If there was a problem with the payment, the respectful and professional approach would have been to speak to me directly and discreetly not make a public scene. Customer service is not just about the product, but about how you treat people. Unfortunately, this place failed badly in that aspect. I will not be returning.

With plenty of parking since it's located in a shopping plaza, this small shaved ice and boba shop may be the only shaved ice in the area. I haven't really searched for any others because Brian's always gets the job done. I remember this was one of the first shops, back in the day, that had the dole whip ("they have the dole whip that Disneyland has!!") and people used to come for that. Now you can get dole whip anywhere but those were good times. They haven't expanded on the size, but they've kept this place up and the service is still excellent. Every time I come in, the seats are clean, if people aren't sitting in them and the vibe is cool. I used to always order a shaved ice, but lately, my oldest and I have been into their boba drinks. My youngest always get a shaved ice with 3 flavors and he loves some sour spray. My oldest always gets a milk tea boba and I switch off between all the milk tea boba flavors. This time I went with the jasmine milk tea and I wasn't feeling that one as much. I am a fan of lavender, caramel, taro, Thai and chai, and my goal is to ultimately try them all. I highly recommend Brian's after all of these years and make sure to grab a stamp card. If you have kids, it'll fill up fast! 10 stamps gets you a free item! OOOOO 5 out of 5 Afros
