I visited Chicha San Chen and it felt more like a tea workshop than a typical bubble tea shop. From…read moremy visit, there were two people working the counter, carefully making drinks and taking orders. You can see them measuring ingredients on scales and following a very deliberate process, so it is not a quick in and out kind of place. I ordered the lemon wonderland and the honey osmanthus oolong tea. Both were really enjoyable. The lemon wonderland tasted fresh and balanced, not overly sweet, with a clean citrus brightness. The honey osmanthus oolong was more subtle, lightly floral with a smooth tea base that came through clearly. You can tell the tea itself is the focus here, not just the toppings or sugar. Service felt focused and methodical rather than chatty, which fits the style. Drinks took a bit longer than average, but it made sense once you see the care going into each cup.

Nothing in particular stood out to me aside from the fact they sold egg waffles, but service was fast because I had gone on a late night weekday and no one else was around. 0% Sugar Roasted Milk Tea with Mini Boba was surprisingly flavorful. It had a creamy, buttery taste with light chocolate notes. The quality of the drink was mid, but you get what you pay for. The mini boba had clumped together in some parts and wasn't too sweet. It was a decent drink I might try again, but there's a lot of variety on the menu.

Parking is plentiful in the Metropolis lot. The place is brightly lit, with a bright yellow theme. Staff were friendly and helpful. I tried the oolong macchiato. Quite tasty,though 1/4 of this thing is basically whipped cream. Something to keep in mind. I wasn't sure how well the cream would mix with the tanginess of the tea, but it worked. Very refreshing. I'd gladly come back at some point. Recommended.

The mango tastes ripe and balances out the creaminess of the coconut milk. 50% sugar was perfect for me.

There's a lot of drinks on the menu, so I was happy to see a most popular drinks menu. I'm terrible with caffeine in the evening, so to be safe I went with the fleshy mango slush with coconut milk. It's not cheap (cost $6.90 for the cup), but it's getting harder to find an affordable boba shop these days. The drink was exactly what I expected it to be, a solid mix of mango and coconut. You can never go wrong with this combo! This SunTea is in a shopping plaza, so there is parking available for the plaza.

You can also buy boba kits to make your own at home. There's a display case up front with an assortment of cookies and small bites, and ice cream. Occasionally, there are pop up vendors selling food or snacks. There's also a few display shelves selling goods from local vendors. Service is friendly and fast. They can get a bit busy depending on when you go. There are not a lot of seating options so probably best for grab and go. Lots of street parking available up front or on the side streets.

While it was a solid matcha latte where I could taste the depth of the matcha, the pandan flavour was quite negligible which I was disappointed by.

The outlet is well managed, with some seating available to rest while you wait for your drink. Most places this size don't offer that. Service is quick and the customization on the sugar is spot on.
