The servers were pleasant and friendly. I ordered the pearl milk tea with half sugar and no ice which was the perfect sweetness for me. I would also recommend their Taro Storm if you are a fan of taro. There is also a mini photobooth with cute props if you are looking to have more fun. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and will definitely be back!

We were really confused why it took so long to make the drinks. It took them about 10 min to make one drink. The slowest bubble tea place. We tried the peach oolong tea and watermelon tea. They were both ok. The watermelon drink was kind of disappointing, it came in a big tub but it's mostly just filled by watermelon chunks and ice rather than the tea itself. The environment was cute. They had a good amount of seatings.

The inside of the place is clean and well maintained and the staff are really nice too. I'll definitely be back to try their other drinks

I am definitely going to try more of their drinks.

We ordered the Creme Brulee Black Milk Tea with Kanten Jelly (5/5) and the Taro Paste Latte with Mini Taro Balls (5/5). Both drinks were deliciously smooth and creamy. The kanten jelly were so chewy and bouncy; it's a fun alternative to your typical pearl toppings. The brulee was not overly sweet which we really liked. We'd definitely try their other drinks when we're in the area again.

**Fun Drinks, But Not the Best for Kids**…read more We stopped by **Machi Machi** to try their drinks and had a pretty good experience overall. We ordered the **matcha red bean drink** and the **mango drink**--both were delicious and definitely fun to try. However, if you're bringing kids who prefer simpler drinks, this might not be the best spot. My kids were hoping for a basic mango drink, which wasn't available, but they still enjoyed what they got. My matcha red bean drink also came with **three rice mochi on a stick**, which was a nice touch! The location itself is inside a **shared space with other restaurants**, so it's not a standalone shop. It's **not stroller-friendly** as there are steps inside, and I didn't see any **high chairs**, so it might not be the most convenient option for families with younger kids. While the drinks were tasty and unique, **it was almost $20 for just two drinks**, so it's definitely on the pricier side. I'd recommend it if you're looking for something different, but keep in mind the cost and setup before going!

I've been to Bontea twice. Nonna Lia products are available at Bontea. I got two types of tiramisu…read morefrom Nonna Lia and came to Bontea to pick them up during my first visit. It's funny. I never thought of getting bubble tea while I was there. I did flag coming here and I finally did last Thursday. I got the following items from Bontea: - Strawberry orange aiyu fruit tea (no sugar and less ice). BOGO on Uber Eats. - Strawberry ice blended with lychee jelly and ice cream. Sugar level is fixed. I headed over here on a snowy Thursday evening. There was so much parking in this plaza with a ton of bubble tea stores. I parked and walked in. The woman was so nice. I let her know that I had an Uber Eats order. It was right in front of her and she handed it over to me in a sturdy, clear plastic bag. I thanked here. I decided to get a couple of white chocolate raspberry gelato bars from Nonna Lia. She was pleased that I was a repeat customer. They are yummy. She said that she tried the hazelnut one and recommended it. I'll need to get that next time. I thanked her and left with my drinks. I headed home to have dinner and some of these drinks. I had the strawberry iced blended with lychee jelly and ice cream after dinner. It's the best of everything that I love. The strawberry ice was perfect with the lychee jelly. It was cold and delicious. The flavours were so yummy. I liked the ice cream, too. It tasted like dessert all rolled into a drink. I'd get it again. I had one of the strawberry orange aiyu fruit teas. Orange and strawberry work well together. I loved the orange aiyu. Think a not-so-sweet orange Jell-o in your tea. It was so good. I'd also get this drink again. I had the other one the next day. It tasted even better! I like Bontea. It's like Kung Fu Tea with ice cream options. The teas that I had were refreshing and yummy. I also like getting my Nonna Liu fix while I'm at it. (25)

My partner had this in Markham and said it was really good. I decided to give it a try. Sadly, I was disappointed. He too agree it did not taste the same as the Markham location. The tea was not fragrant at all. The tapioca were good though. Overall just didn't seem to stand out compared to all the other tea shops. I also overheard that their points system is not interchangeable between Markham and this location so I wonder if it's different owners/quality. There is minimal seating but not a whole lot. This is meant for more of a grab and go spot.

After hearing all the hype about Chicha San Chen, just happened to pass by and decided to try it…read more Luckily there was no lineup so it was a no-brainer to try it out. The shop is a bit small with a few tables in the store and it was full when my group got there. Opted to do takeout instead. They had an extensive selection but opted for the Mango Tart. The way they make their tea is unique and looks almost like they're brewing coffee. It really comes through in the tea flavour and the drink itself was really great. You can definitely tell the drinks are made with care and that's why they have the reputation that they do. Definitely worth the visit and will definitely be going back whether to this location or other ones around me.

This plaza has Owl of Minerva and Dear Saigon which means we'll likely be going here often. We stopped here on a Sunday after getting food from Dear Saigon and going to B-trust. This place is small and is more of a grab-and-go type of place. They have a little wok behind a glass counter that I assume they use to make tapioca pearls (they weren't making any by the time we got here). I'm not a huge fan of any toppings on my drink but that's a cool fact. They also have fortune sticks on the corner where you can get your fortune read. Also very cool! I got a lychee strawberry soda, which was really good. Usually, a lot of drink places that serve soda drinks don't have a lot of flavour, but I could really taste the strawberry and lychee here. I also don't like toppings on my drinks, but I didn't mind the lychee pieces on here as they were small. My boyfriend got the kirin soy drink. He said it was alright. I would definitely come back here as they have quite an extensive menu. It's also a convenient location near several food joints and a B-trust.

I'm glad they're finally open again because they were temporarily closed for a bit…read more I really like their signature brown sugar boba. They make it fresh in front of you which is nice. I've tried their Bunny Jelly Mango Smoothie which had no artificial/added sweetener/sugar to it. It's made with fresh mangoes. The bunny jelly was so cute too. I ordered their Lychee Kirin Tea with 0% sugar and it was still refreshingly good. I recommend trying their Signature Brown Sugar Pearl Milk if you've never been here. We ordered a total of 9 drinks and the workers there were so patient with us. It must've been stressful for them but the service they gave was still exceptional. I've also tried Nonna Lia's tiramisus: Earl Grey and Pistacchio ones. The mascarpone filling wasn't too dense. It was creamy, light and airy. Both tiramisus had a delicate sweetness.
