I've contemplated stopping at Tsaocaa many times, however, with transfers being more difficult since my last amputation I've really reduced the number of times I stop at a location where I don't have another stop nearby. While Tsaocaa is in a strip center, there's really nothing else in this strip center that strikes my fancy. So, I just haven't stopped. However, today I was across the parking lot at the nearby Goodwill. I was feeling like I had pretty good stamina and decided to wheel over and finally check this place out. This is in a bit of a weird strip center adjacent to Castleton Square. It's an older center with mostly ethnic businesses with some exceptions. The building itself appears a bit run down. However, it's still clean and I was pleasantly surprised to see a fairly decent wheelchair ramp right next to Tsaocaa. They also do have both indoor and outdoor tables. The doorway is a two-sided doorway. I found it a little heavy, however, I was able to get in. This is a fairly small space. The tables are nicely spaced, however, the actual aisle is kind of narrow. They have two electronic kiosks where you place your order. If you are paying by credit, you pay at the kiosk. If you're paying with cash, you get a receipt and pay at the cash register. The kiosks are perfectly nice - they struck me as a more vertical version of the ones at Shake Shack. Though, I will admit they struck me as weird since they are literally directly in front of the counter. You're literally right next to the employees who are making your order. I realize these are specialty drinks, but it just struck me as weird. Truthfully, I didn't care for it. However, I persevered and I will admit the process is fairly simple. Plus, hey, I learned how to use the tap feature on my credit card. Leave me alone. I'm over 50 - I still remember typewriters, party phone lines, and when gas stations had full service. I ordered a pineapple green tea. It came in a pretty cool glass for $6.95. There was definitely real pineapple in it. I'll admit this surprised me, but it also pleased me. It was probably less than two minutes and my drink was ready. I should note that the electronic kiosk allows for some customization and also asks for your name - thus, your name is called when your order is ready. The young man was friendly, though I wouldn't say anyone here was particularly outgoing. The atmosphere is what I'd probably call an Americanized Asian atmosphere - there's a plant shelf over the ordering counter, a row of tables, and some light Asian decor. The music struck me as a tad too loud, though I also noted the acoustics here are a bit off and even conversations are a tad loud. It was, though, a little nicer than I expected. I believe that Tsaocaa is in the same family as the new Harmony Tea joints that are going up around town. They had some Harmony signage. I'm glad I visited, though I doubt I'll rush back. I will admit I'm a bit old-fashioned - I actually like customer service and the kiosk thing just doesn't click with me. The atmosphere was busier than I prefer - when I'm having this type of drink, I like to relax a bit. If I'd grabbed an outside table, perhaps it would have been more appealing. I may try one of the Harmony Tea locations depending on locale and convenience. Overall, I liked my drink and that made the stop worth it. This is very easily a 4-star rating for me. However, it simply didn't have that extra spark that would allow me to push it up to a 5-star.
As we walked in, we were very confused by all the Harmony Tea Shoppe branding in Tsaocaa. We've been to two different Harmony locations before and came out disappointed both times so we were a bit apprehensive about getting a drink here. The barista explained that Tsaocaa has the same owner as Harmony Tea Shoppe, but this was a franchise and the drinks were made a bit differently. Since we had made the trip out, we decided to take the chance. We got one drink: King of Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet w/ Boba ($6.70) - They first start the drink by pouring some kind of thick liquid creamer mixture into a cup, then add the sugar syrup, ice, and tea from a dispenser. This is mixed together thoroughly and poured on top of some warm boba. I found that half sweet was still on the sweet side and the creamer is quite strong, releasing a very noticeable milky-forward taste throughout the drink. Some of the nice oolong notes do come out, with a bit of fragrancy and roasty undertones and aftertaste. The boba here is very bad. They use a golden boba rather than the typical black boba, but it's horribly undercooked here. The boba had one of the hardest textures I've had among the 100+ different boba shops I've been to across the US and Asia. It's just a very bad boba. With golden boba, you can pretty easily see how cooked it is - the more cooked parts turn translucent, while the less cooked parts are opaque. More than 50% of each pearl was opaque. We could not finish the boba and ended up throwing it out. Like Harmony, the toppings here are $1.25, which is super expensive, almost double the price of other boba shops. They also charge a service fee in addition to the normal state taxes, even though you order using the kiosk for their convenience. Bleh. In comparison to Harmony, the tea quality here is better, but the boba is worse. Similar to Harmony, the kiosk doesn't have any description for any of the drinks, so for some items you honestly have no idea what you are getting. I don't recommend either shop.
The best boba spot in Indiana!! I like their milk teas because they retain a strong, authentic tea taste. A lot of other boba places ruin their drinks by watering them down or having too much syrup. The boba is sweet, delicate, and chewy!! I recommend the ruby red milk tea & king of milk tea. Other neat features I like about Tsaocaa is their self-order screens & rewards cards where you can get a free drink for every 10 purchases.
I went here 3 times this week because I am totally obsessed!! The inside is so cute and clean. Lots of plants, a few tables, and comfy chairs to sit in. You order at a Kiosk that is easy to scroll the menu, place an order, and pay on. The drink menu is huge! Lots of yummy options like milk tea, regular tea, and snack foods. The service has been fast whenever I've gone. I went during the week twice and I was the only person there, but when I went on Sunday it was packed! Regardless, my drink was ready in a couple minutes. Overall a great experience and I am ready for more already!
I've been here a few times and I've tried a different few drinks. This time we got like normal milk tea & green tea. While they're both good, I feel like the milk tea was very light in flavor and the green tea was very strong in tea flavor. I do enjoy tea a lot. The tea was with lychee jelly I think, and it wasn't that good with the mix that I went with. The strawberry pudding was too artificial like 2/5. I wasn't a fan of it nor was my boyfriend. Not sure how I thought it was gonna taste, but I was really disappointed for it. Experience goes like you walk in and order on the machines. They call your name and you go and get your order. Music is pretty nice in there.
This is a really cute Boba shop right in the plaza with Patel Brothers and Viet Hua in Castleton. It was a great treat on a hot summer day after getting groceries. They have machines that make ordering very easy. We went on a Sunday early evening and there was a considerable wait for the drinks, so you may want to consider ordering online instead. These drinks were pretty pricy compared to what I am familiar with in terms of boba shops. For all drinks, everything is an additional cost, including boba for $1. Others like grass jelly or foam would be additional as well unless you specifically get a foam drink. I felt they were quality drinks, but I was not really able to taste any flavor in the Sakura oolong. If you get foam, it is pretty overpowering. The matcha foam was amazing though, it was a subtle sweet flavor with strong quality matcha flavor. Definitely a treat here.
This is one of the top spots in the city for authentic Taiwanese boboa tea. There is so much variety in the menu. In addition they carry other Taiwanesw fruit drinks and teas. They also have Taiwan waffle ice cream which is nothing like traditional American waffles. Once the "outside" opens up this will be a cool spot to hang out with friends
Update: I went back to Tsaocaa for the second time. I don't know when they started it but they had two self-order machines there. It was just like the ones at McDonalds. Big screen and easy to navigate. What I like about Thai place is the variety of the flavors, however there are so many unfamiliar flavor names there so if they can add a short description on the screen I think many people will find it helpful! For example, I don't know what "Fragrans" but if it had a brief explanation I may have been open to try it. "King of tea" sounds delicious but still I had no clue what it would be like (I still ordered it though) Their service was good again and the tea was ready for me in a few minutes. Will go back.
I'm sure this experience would be much more special during normal non-COVID times. For now, Tsaocaa is operating out of Meet Noodles a few doors down and orders have to be made online or on their touch screen in the entryway. We ordered at the touch screen and waited about 20 minutes in our car for a text to confirm our order was ready. We followed the great reviews to this tasty adventure. Out hearts were set on ordering the Korean shaved ice like we had had in Seoul last year but it's not currently available on the menu. In its place we ordered the mango tofu, strawberry cheese topped shaved ice and jasmine boba green tea. All three were delicious. I'd recommend ordering the strawberry shaved ice with less than full sugar (the cheese topping was a salty and delicious contrast to the sweet shaved ice!). The thing I love about this business is how many popular Asian desserts you can find under one roof- from fruit tofu and boba teas to jellies and milk teas. We'll be back when the Korean shaved ice magic resumes.
Absolutely love this place, their drinks are just amazing. My favorite is the brown sugar bubble tea... you won't regret that choice!!! I also really like their desserts, again so good! I also don't mind ordering in the store as they have kiosk to order from. You can also order online as well! Pro tip: get their drink cards for a frequent customer
When I walked in, I was surprised with how packed it was in there or what to do. To the right, there are two huge screens for ordering (so you don't order at the counter, just the screens). There are SO many options to customize your drink which is cool but can back up the queue while people are deciding. While you can build your own drink from scratch, I choose from their most popular menu. You can add boba or extra fruit, more/less ice or the sugar level. I was weirded out by the option to add cheese but turns out it's like a cream cheese foam so I do recommend doing that! I chose to pay with cash & the ordering screen didn't have that capability so someone at the counter will call your name to take your payment. Since it was so busy, we did get our drinks to go but it was decorated very cute inside! There are some seats outside as well.

I had stopped in at the Asian market across the parking lot and saw this place going in. As I was leaving, the outdoor seating area caught my eye and I decided to stop in. From reading previous reviews I knew about the ordering tablets on the right wall as you enter. I was torn between the Boba tea and the fruit teas and ended up settling on the Pineapple green tea. The tea was delicious and it'd a perfect blend of green tea and pineapple juice. It's very refreshing. There is no size option when you order your drink but it's not a small either. Definitely a great spot to stop for a drink if you're in the area. I'll be back next time I'm in the area to try a different tea and maybe some Boba tea. read more

The variety of flavors here really make it hard to decide what to drink - but not in a bad way! The staff is great at making suggestions in addition to having their menu of the most popular items. I got the King Milk Tea and it wasn't super sweet. However, if you want more/less sweetener they're able to accommodate that as well. I absolutely loved it here! read more
We stopped here after trying out the ramen place nearby, and was not disappointed. They have a variety of fun teas, Thai rolled ice cream, Korean shaved ice, Hong Kong egglette (like a waffle) and Taiwan style teas.... it's like an Asian dessert hotpot. I tried the Tsaocaa special- Carmel bubble black milk tea with Oreo and foam. It was decadent! Milky and sweet... I don't think even want to know how many calories it was, as I consumed it when I was already full and probably had too much. But the place was cute, not a ton of seating. There were maybe 4 tables and a few chairs. I think this is a franchise, and I'm glad that Indy has one. It's a good place to check out for dessert. You can also choose less sugar on your drinks if you are watching the waste line. I liked the variety, and we were able to get out teas quickly. read more
Glad that I found this hidden gem when I was in the area. They have a big selection of boba and a few snack options. The ordering process can be a little overwhelming as you have to place the order yourself at a kiosk. (They did not seem too helpful with that) The boba is super fresh and I like the cups that they use. There are a lot of to personalize your drink which is a plus. If you're in the castleton area it's worth a stop. read more
Tsaocaa has improve in their drinks and snacks, which I'm really happy that I gave them another chance. This is the best boba shop in Indy; second would be Moar Tea & Poke on Mass Ave then ChaTime In Castleton Mall. My all time favorite is their basic Jasmine Green Milk Tea with Boba. Then their Colorful Fruits Green Tea, lastly their Caramel Milk Tea with Dark Brown Sugar. If this is your first time, these are the most popular and recommended starter drink! It is optional to add boba or any other toppings, but recently they haven't had black pearls... They have their white pearls, it doesn't really taste the same, but at least it's chewy and sweet. I highly recommend trying their rolling ice creams too; it's delicious and they have a lot of different flavors! I haven't tried their Korean snows yet, but one day I'll give that a try! If you're not allergic to egg, flour and sugar, give the eggette a try; it's chewy and crunchy! read more
This tea shop is attached to Meet Noodles! They're owned by the same people, and during COVID, you order your tea in Meet Noodles. I got an oolong peach tea and ramen delivered to me, but they also have delicious-looking milk and boba teas, cold teas, Thai ice cream rolls, Korean shaved ice, and more. They have a lot of different boba flavors and cheese cream foam or matcha milk foam too. Enjoy! read more
This menu is amazing!! There's so many flavors for milk tea and regular tea. Very few people seem to order up front with the people working there, so it's definitely a bummer if it's your first time and you're not sure what to get/ want recommendations. They have two self-service ordering machines up front that make the process simple though! As much as I love their expansive menu, im a sucker for a traditional milk tea. I never know what the name is for that, but I ordered the Ruby Milk Tea with Boba and 25% sugar, which is exactly what I wanted!! the service is very fast, and you get a lot of boba every time. Definitely a new favorite! read more

I really like the options here! Each drink can be customized at the ordering kiosk - and despite there being a good number of people, we got our order fast! Being my first time, I was a little confused if the boba was included or it was extra. It is included if it is in the title, and if you want extra that's where the extra charge is for. read more

Came for Bubble Tea with my friend and our brothers. We used the kiosks to order, which weren't difficult to use, and got the Caramel Bubble Milk Tea w/ Brown Sugar and the Peach Green Tea. Our drinks came very quickly and were really good! Also tried an egg waffle while we were there which was good too for a snack. They have a pretty good seating layout and a shelf of tabletop games. We played a few games and drank our drinks and had a really nice time! Didn't interact much with the staff but they seemed friendly and helpful. Would recommend for Bubble Tea lovers like myself. read more

More drinks to review :-) After some suggestions we decided to go with Strawberry Jasmine Milk Tea and Caramel Bubble Milk Tea. We also went with 25% sugar since these are already sweet enough on their own - just right. Cheers! read more
My go-to boba spot when I'm running errands on the weekend. Tucked away in a small shopping center off of 82nd, this quiet boba shop offers a variety of options from milk tea to fruit slushies with alllll kinds of boba! They even have dessert waffles! The service was quick and we both enjoyed our teas. I got the peach green tea with peach boba and little sister got the pineapple green tea with yogurt boba. read more
The interior was very cute, but it's popular so be prepared to wait in a line! Unfortunately because of popularity, they were out of my top choice which was rose tea with boba. I ended up ordering the peach oolong with grass jelly instead. I also ordered the whipped cheese topping because I have always wanted to try it. I do not recommend the cheese topping at all it was salty and really ruined the flavor of the otherwise delicious tea. However this might just be my personal distaste, to be fair. I was thinking it would be more creamy and less cheesy. My husband ordered the mango Korean shaved ice dish. It was huge! Big enough for both of us. We enjoyed it immensely, especially after taking the initiative to mix it all together instead of having individual scoops with huge chunks of just ice. Whoops. All in all the place was clean, and the selection is great. I would definitely come by again... but definitely would not try mixing cheese with tea the next time! read more

first time i came i was with my group of friends, two who live in the phillipines. we spent our time going to specific cultural food places and of course dessert spots. i think two of us got the exact same drink lol it was so good and i've wanted to go back ever since but it's a bit far from home and i've needed to try other places. i was absolutely delighted to walk in and see these cool ordering stations! they are pretty simple & easy to use. i did have a question about my boba, staff answered quickly. my drink came out quickly & it was goood. they've removed all seats. normally you can sit they play music and they have games like jenga at the table / back wall. they use your phone # to advise you your order is ready. service is good. hours are cool. i'll be back. read more
This is the 2nd time coming here and the More Than See You drink is my favorite! They used a self serve kiosk to order which was pretty cool but a little hard to navigate (cause there's soo many options) but it allowed the employees to focus on making the drinks. I would definitely recommend this place and that drink :D read more
Newly opened, cute clean venue, at most can seat 20 people, with a cultural mix of Asian desserts - Korean shaved ice, Taiwanese bubble tea and tea lattes, Thai rolled ice cream, Hong Kong bubble waffle! Keep in mind the drinks take some time to make because they brew their tea fresh to order. Prices a bit pricey but comparable to a venti Starbucks drink. You may request the level of sweetness for your tea (e.g. 50 less sweet, no sweet, 30% more sweet). I asked for a 50% less sweet carmel bubble milk black tea with brown sugar. The boba/tapioca balls were amazingly soft and chewy!! The drink tasted great and would taste fine at full sweetness but I'm trying to tame my sweet tooth... A for effort! I think your wait time will be variable depending on the spurts of costumers that come in. I was shocked though that they were adequately staffed. At first i saw only 2 employees but when the crowd came 5 more came out of no where and they worked through all the orders timely. I really want to try the rolled up ice cream. Probably tastes the same as ice cream as i know it but it looks so neat. The puddings were just ok to me compared to everything else but was also pleasant to try. I'm curious about their cheese foam that they use on their fruit tea lattes. My friends enjoyed theirs a lot. I adore the cups the drinks come in. Quite a sturdy cup I'm sure i can reuse and there are two options on whether you want to drink from a straw or sip. They place a adorable heart splash stick on the sipping side. I'm a fan! read more
Good place to try if you generally like bubble tea. Taste is decent, but it's definitely overpriced for basic bubble tea. Adding regular boba is $1.00 extra to a baseline $6 drink. They do have a LOT of options for toppings and flavors. It can also be very, very busy at popular times with a long wait - but the employees are very kind and work efficiently. read more
