Review Summary

Chicha San Chen is widely regarded as a premier destination for bubble tea in Montreal, consistently praised for its high-quality, authentic tea brewed fresh to order using sophisticated equipment rather than powdered mixes. Many customers highlight the flavorful, aromatic nature of the teas and the superior texture of the honey-infused tapioca pearls, noting that the menu allows for customizable sweetness and ice levels. While the shop is frequently described as a small, takeaway-focused venue with no indoor seating and occasional long wait times, most reviewers find the premium experience and attentive service worth the price. Although some guests have reported inconsistent service experiences or limited availability of certain flavors, the general consensus celebrates the establishment as a standout spot in Chinatown that delivers a sophisticated and refreshing beverage experience.

This is not your typical bubble tea, its a very different bubble tea experience. Here you can really taste the ✨quality✨of the ingredients. A + point for me would also be that the cup comes with a holder ! Very cute concept.

We got two drinks: the "Bubble Milk Tea", 8.5/10. The tea/drink is definitely high quality, creamy, flavorful & the boba has the right chewiness. The "Dong Ding Oolong Tea + Fresh Milk" is a 0/10. No flavour. I could only taste the milk. Prices are on the high end. The store is really small, so it can get crowded quickly. Customer service was great, though. Overall, I think it was pretty good but I wouldn't line up for this & would only get a drink here as a treat *occasionally*. I definitely wanna come back some time & try the other drinks though. Maybe it'll make me revisit more often!

The teas did taste good. However, it is a small shop, & gets crowded easily. Management also needs to work on communication between staff. My partner was really looking forward to trying the milk bubble tea, & ordered it with oat milk. However, after waiting for a long time, we were told that they don't have oat milk & was forced to change his order so he had to pick something random quickly. As it's our first time here, it was hard to choose. He did like it afterwards, but not what he was expecting to get, & disappointing as we should've been told right away that they don't have oat milk in stock. The taro was good as they use real taro but it hid the tea taste.

The drinks taste good & the pearls are amazing, chewy & fresh. The service was standard. The only downside is that the store is super small & there's a line, which makes it super crowded. However, they do that exterior table which makes up for it. Perfect for takeout.

Se démarque de ses compétiteurs par la fraîcheur & la qualité du thé. Malgré l'achalandage élevé, les employés restent courtois & gardes le sourire. Bien hâte de goûter à un nouveau drink!!!

I wanted to find out what is the hype about this place & it did not disappoint! Price point, it is higher than most places for a small cup but the quality is there. The drink (i ordered honey oolong osmanthus) was the definition of freshness, you won't find this level of quality elsewhere. This is how real bubble tea should taste like. (Fyi: if you are a fan of cheap powder flavors , this place is not for you)
