This place never disappoints! All the drinks are super fresh & made to order. We visited on 7/29 & it looked like there was only one guy working- he was running all over the place making the drinks very efficiently & still taking care of customers questions & requests, so shoutout to him!

Honestly, it's one of the BEST bubble tea I've ever had. I got the taro king & it was FRESH you can tell that the ingredients are natural & of quality which I love (hate the artificial flavours tbh). Every time I come to China town, it's my go to bubble tea place.

This famous bubble tea shop lives up to the expectation! All their tea is made fresh using their sleek teaspresso machine. I really enjoyed my dong ding oolong tea with fresh milk. I chose 30% sugar, & it still had a nice bit of sweetness paired with a refreshing, toasty aroma. A consistent spot for tasty tea in Chinatown!

I've tasted almost every bubble tea spot in montreal & I can tell you this place is just on another level. The bubble teas are so savoury, it's incredibly fresh in flavour, & the tea itself tastes so authentic! I love this place so much, & I return every now & then when I can!

The service is extremely poor. If possible, I don't even want to give a heart.
Before ordering, my friend asked the waiter if the taro ball were made of fresh taro. She didn't know but said yes & after I told my partner that it was not made of fresh taro, she took out a box full of taro balls & showed it to us?In fact, what she needed was taro puree?So she reconsidered what to order. I thought she was Chinese, so I was afraid that she would misunderstand me & explain it to my partner. I described it in Chinese, but she didn't understand, but their attitude was obviously strongly impatient & urgent after I talked to them in Chinese (but there was no one in the store at this moment). After I read the menu carefully, I found that there was taro puree that my partner needed. I wanted to confirm with them. As a result, another waiter who made tea talked to me directly. If you need to order, wait for a while, in a very uncomfortable & impatient tone. Finally, about the tea, my partner said less ice, but it turned out to be a full cup of ice. I even suspect that it was intentional. Even if such a milk tea shop is opened in Taiwan, as a compatriot, I will not go there again.

This is the best place to get tea or milk tea. They've won awards in Taiwan!

I personally enjoy the green tea & oolong tea. You can build your own drink with $5.95CAD as the base. I recommend adding fresh milk &/or boba. There's only one size.

I passed by twice during the week & there was no line. Finally when I was here on a Sunday, there was a line out the door. They need AC inside!! It was so hot.

There is no seating inside. It's quite tight inside, barely enough room for a line & a pick up area. There are a couple tables outside under the shade.

Love the green tea honey or osmanthus honey here. The tea is really flavourful. I think because the tea is freshly brewed per order they keep the size standard. The only thing I wish would be for them to have a bigger size offering but maybe I'm just greedy. Would recommend.

If you're looking for an authentic bubble tea place, this is definitely your go-to place. This bubble tea shop is underrated deserves more attention & popularity. The tea is brewed freshly from tea leaves, the bubbles are freshly cooked & thus they are soft & chewy. This makes best bubble tea you can order, contrary to those powdery bubble teas from elsewhere. Very friend staff.

Ayy it's the tasty boba place known for making tasty boba.

First time trying it but it was pretty tasty as expected. The focus on the tea as well as the different method of fresh preparation made it taste better in my opinion.

Overall pretty good!

This is the best & most fresh bubble tea I've ever had! They brewed the tea right there in front of you. We got the Taro King & Green Passionfruit tea with coconut jelly. Both drinks had bits of real fruit in there. The green tea one had passionfruit in it & the taro king had fresh taro paste in it. So delicious!
