I was shopping with Te-see and saw a food truck selling Shaved Ice, it literally appeared out of no where. Actually, the owner told us he's been established at this location for many years. The set up and theme is appealing. First, select the size: Small is Boogie Board; Medium is Short Board; and Large is a Long Board. Next, select your flavor(s) from 50 possible options and combinations. Last, is to customize it with an added topping: Coconut Flakes; scoop of Ice Cream; or Snow Cap (condensed milk). It really hit the spot!! I will stop by when I am in the area again. Sincerely, Rosemary

Walked in and it was a welcoming vibe, the soccer game was on and the staff was friendly. Unfortunately, when I got my juice, it was watered down. It seemed more like a smoothie. They added ice to it. So the beet, the orange and the lemon flavors were all minimized. Maybe I didn't read a description of the juice, I just expected it to be juice with it being blended with ice. Overall it seems like a nice place.

I was in need of a natural juice for hydration and cleanse and saw this shop on Yelp. Since I was down the street charging my work laptop at the Public Library, it was perfect for the short distance and parking. Inside, it's like any other juice shop, and the young man who took and made my order was really nice. He had pride in his work, too. That's the highest compliment I can give. I had an issue with a tooth amidst a root canal at the time, so he avoided using ice to prevent any problems. Given the heat outside, it would have been better, but better safe than sorry is a good maximum. The fruit was fresh and all flavors merged well. I drank it too quickly perhaps, but it quenched my thirst and need for nutrition.

Great fruit tarts, always fresh, things move fast there so fruit is always fresh and shell crisp. Poua, has helped us many times there, I do regret I can't name all the great employees there, I'll have to look at some receipts, none the less, they are all naturally friendly though I think they under staff on some shifts, heating things, scooping gelato and making coffee drinks all take time when you have a line of anxious customers. There are a few tables and chairs scattered around, nice place to watch the crowds if you can snag one. The only change I'd make is have an extra person during busy times, and never just two, it's really too much for two to handle things there when things do pick up. A very nice place with great bakery goods and all else!

This hit the spot and was not glazed on top nor was the custard sweet which I prefer. Good choice if you want something fresh and not heavy and rich. The cafe is cute, but not really all that pink? Was the coffee (which I did not order) pink? Very clean seating area. The gals up front were nice. It wasn't busy so the service was quick. Great spot if you're looking to enjoy some coffee and pastries.

Let's just say that this hit the spot after a week of eating rich restaurant food. I felt like I was doing my health and digestion a favor but I was still eating something fun and pretty! The staff were very nice and helpful, though the menu is very self-explanatory so just read for a minute and you'll see. The decor is cute, pretty standard for a smoothie bar. I like how they had many options that weren't sweet and sugar-packed, as well.

The Mango Green Tea with boba is bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. The sweet, juicy mango blends beautifully with the light, crisp green tea, while the chewy boba pearls add a fun texture that makes every sip enjoyable. The Cookies & Cream Shake is rich, thick, and creamy. It's packed with crunchy Oreo cookie pieces blended into smooth ice cream, creating the perfect dessert drink for anyone who loves classic cookies-and-cream flavor. This one is definitely kid approved!!! The Lychee Green Tea with extra lychee bobas and salted cream is a standout. The floral sweetness of the lychee pairs wonderfully with the refreshing green tea, while the extra lychee bobas burst with fruity flavor in every sip. The salted cream on top adds a smooth, creamy finish with just the right touch of saltiness, creating an irresistible sweet-and-savory combination. With friendly service, quality ingredients, and a menu full of flavorful drinks, Chaca Tea Bar is a great place to satisfy your bubble tea cravings. Whether you're in the mood for something fruity, creamy, or unique, there's something for everyone.

I kinda hate…read moredriving to the location due to the traffic of those getting on and off the freeway, but I brace it from time to time. One thing I like about this place is that the staff has customized drinks for me based on what I was feeling that day haha. I came in once and told the guy, "I'm feeling like cream and strawberry, but heavy on the tea, but I want foam of sorts." He mixed a bunch of stuff based on that description and it was perfect lol. So yeah, I love that about them. It's small inside so I don't hang out or linger. I just get my drinks and go.

Great Service! Good people! The wait can sometimes be…read morelengthy but it is so worth it as every employee that I've come into contact with has given exceptional customer service. And have proven themselves to be true artisans in the art of shake elevation. The extraordinary libations they concoct seem to defy logic, seeking to enchant each drink with a level of divine deliciousness not often attempted, and rarely accomplished. But this they manage to do. Each time. So hats off to Monster Shakes for their whimsical creations, and the supreme love they have for their customers. Your dedication to your community is made stronger with every ring of a bell that signals a new customer at your door. Thank you.

I have been here multiple times under the last owner and I had the best experience, but no matter the quality of the items, the service was horrible and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Visit Cat City location or Great shakes in downtown Palm Springs:) It was a small misunderstanding and the owner went out of her way to try and correct me, even went as far as going back and forth with me. She should have politely corrected the issue which was over sample cups for some reason they don't offer sample cups in an ice cream shop. It was very rude, she came around the counter and pointed out the sign that read something about sample cups that I didn't see because they advertised a new flavor so I immediately asked the employee to try it and he didn't explain the process very well and I clearly asked so I just try it from the cup and he said yes. I then went over to try the product and she came around very rude instead of guiding me. I didn't order anything because of the obnoxious response from the owner. She proceeded to tell me to have a great day with a snippy attitude as if she knew nothing would happen to her business with just one bad review. Hopefully this review guides you to better locations so that you can have a wonderful experience elsewhere. I will never return...
