OVERALL: 7.9/10 (Yelp Converted Score: 4/5). My partner and I were passing through, and wanted to…read morestop for coffee. It was a decent experience - they did forget that I ordered a breakfast sandwich until I politely reminded them about 15 minutes after they gave us our last item (steamed oat espresso latte). Verdict: I'd come back if I lived in the area, or was passing through again, but it's not a place I'd outright go out of my way to get to. 1) VARIETY/SELECTION: 8.5/10. It has a decent selection for being such a small hole-in-the-wall (relatively speaking). 2) FRESHNESS: 8/10. They have the materials to make things fresh, but a lot of the baked goods are technically "pre-baked" (they may have been made on the same day, but they're not "made to order". 3) VALUE FOR MONEY: 7.5/10. Overall not bad, kind of expensive (sandwiches were $10 and $12; lemonade was $4 for a small glass with tons of ice, iced coffee and latte were $6 each, almond croissant was around $5?), but not terrible for a small(ish) town like Vernon (remember, all prices in $CAD for a Canadian business!). 4) SERVICE: 7/10. There were two people working here the entire time I was there; one was constantly making drinks, the other was alternating between helping customers order and making the food. It was a busy morning, but the person who took my order forgot about the breakfast sandwich that I'd ordered until I politely reminded them (after it was already cold, sad days). 5) CONSISTENCY / FIRST IMPRESSION: 8.5/10. I'd definitely come back - and prefer it over the local Starbucks / Timmie's - because local businesses are fantastic if done right (and this place seems to have struck that balance). Parking in front, but not much! I'm happy to see a local coffee shop thriving - tons of folks came in and the place was always having someone order the full time I was there. NOTE: This place is also the same as "juice wall" - there's a "wall" of shelving near the door that's a ton of wine options - you have to get a coffee shop item to order stuff from there, but it seemed like a reasonable price when I was perusing (but not purchasing) the wine. My only regret is not taking a picture of the wall! The seating wasn't bad - there's maybe 5 tables of 2-3 inside, and a patio that lines the outside of the place - so it's not bad by any means.

I had another that was a bit sweet for me but filled the gap in a healthier way than most other 'fast food'. Their offerings had markings to indicate gluten free (GF) and similar. They even had a Keto option. Coffee was hot & fresh. Teas were available too. It was a pleasant surprise that made eating healthy easy with no inconvenience & as the handiest option available. Maybe there were other spots onsite or in the other building, but I was happy, so didn't bother looking.

Thanks to the ladies that run it as they are also very friendly and helpful with a smile on their faces. Shelley from Smithers BC

I have do though, visit every bubble tea shop I can on my travels and drink as much bubble tea as I can in my life... I LOVE IT and have become a bit of a bubble tea connoisseur, making me also have high standards and seek bubble tea perfection. I just moved to Vernon and on my first walk down 30th I spotted a big fat happy cat, "RICH TEA - BUBBLE TEA" this way- is this my new local bubble tea spot? I AM IMPRESSED! Rich Tea is absolute perfection - from making me the absolute perfect Taro frapp (WITH NON DAIRY MILK) to a hot milky rose tea at the exact temperature so I can still drink it from their clear cups that are shaped to fit elegantly in your hand! One day I came in hoping to have pudding added to my drink, paid for it, then found out they had ran out. They quickly responded "YES!" when I suggested I have a tart instead? I AM OVER THE MOON to not only have found my favourite Bubble Tea shop yet, but that it is IN MY HOMETOWN! Yes, I collect Paw Points and coming in for my free drink is a highlight of my new life!
