Still our favorite Bubble Tea Place 11 years later!…read more Be sure to get a stamp card here to earn free drinks! One thing we love about this location is the unusual options like fresh fruit pear made with tea instead of milk or juice. We came in as part of our recent spring break Staycation. My daughter ordered a weird concoction of chocolate strawberry with green apple pieces (ewwww but whatever) and she dropped it all over the floor! Without missing a beat, the gentleman cave out and told her not to worry (she had started to cry) and quickly made her a new drink. He was so caring and calm telling her that it happens all the time. The kindness he showed to her was immeasurable. Two thumbs way up!

There are plans for a North location to open in the future as well. I went to the West location on the second day of their grand opening. It was fairly busy inside. They have an open window where you can watch the staff make the fresh house made brown sugar pearls in front of you. I tried their signature brown sugar pearl milk tea and their strawberry pearl milk. Both were great! The pearls tasted very fresh and I liked the strawberry infusion on the strawberry pearls. The brown sugar pearl milk tea had brown sugar infused throughout. I like that the brown sugar tea didn't go bland after awhile which I have experienced at other bubble tea places. I have also went to their South location. My experience with that location isn't as good. Service was slow and they seemed a bit disorganized. I've tried the Taro Milk, Passionfruit yogurt green tea, Kiwi yogurt green tea and Bunny Jelly Mango Smoothie. My favourite out of these was the bunny jelly mango smoothie since it came with a coconut jelly shaped like a bunny and the mango flavour was strong and fresh. The strawberry pearls I had here was stale and bland unfortunately. I'm not sure if it's a location or consistency issue here at the south Calgary Trail location.

Service isn't extremely speedy. Pricing is average in comparison to other bubble tea joints.

I come to The Tea Place every once in a while to have a tea - I always enjoy coming here…read more Cups of tea are always made to perfection - today I have taken a London Fog, and it tastes great - it's not too sweet either like at some other place I've had it. Other hot and cold beverages are served here, such as coffees and bubble tea, to name a couple. A few desert snack items are available to enjoy. Teas are also available for purchase - the Tea Place has a whole variety of loose teas for every taste. Chinese style tea pots are available for purchase. Service is very good and friendly, and the ambiance is very relaxing. Definitely a nice spot to enjoy a beverage and good company.

Quickly is the newest Bubble Tea shop to pop up in St. Albert. I've tried quickly twice now - on…read moreboth visits I brought my kiddos and a friend and we tried 8 drinks in total. Located in St. Albert next to Bodega and Brick Wall Vietnamese Restaurant just off St. A Trail. I learned from their wall signage that they are a chain with more than 2000 locations worldwide - wow! The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was bright, clean, and fresh. My youngest comment that he really liked the layout and design of the store. I was disappointed to learn the only "fresh fruit" options here are strawberry, mango, and avocado. Most everything is powder based with a fair bit of sugar - you can opt for 75%, 50%, or 25% sweetness for the added sugars. They also offer some non bubble tea options here like a customizable collagen drink that comes in a cute reusable plastic water bottle with a screw top lid. Some drinks were hit and some were misses. Overall, I think there are still some quirks to workout here. For example, 2 of our 8 drinks were not full in the cup - leaving about 1 1/2" - 2" without drink. When you are paying $8/drink, I would appreciate it being full. One of our smoothie style smoothies was so thick that that kiddo really struggled with getting the drink through the straw. Out of all 8 drinks on 2 visits, my daughter was the most disappointed. She ordered a strawberry mixed with chocolate bubble tea. The chocolate was crushed up malt teasers which was not appetizing in the least in the drink. I ended up having... well choosing to take my daughter to another local shop to grab her a bubble tea elsewhere as that one did not get consumed. Also on our first visit, earlier in the day we all noted that the traditional bubbles or sago were crunchy in the middle - not the usual enjoyable texture. However, on our second visit which occurred later on in the day the bubbles had the texture we are more familiar with. And we do also make bubble tea at home sometimes and have experienced this at home as well depending on how long we cook the sago and how fresh they are. They also didn't have a few items on our visit today including food items or the "heart shaped" jellies. We will give Quickly another try but will likely wait a few months while staff work the kinks out.
