Les avis présentent The Alley comme une adresse agréable avec une ambiance chaleureuse et un service attentif, offrant une carte variée de bubble tea souvent décrite comme fraîche et savoureuse. Beaucoup considèrent cet endroit comme l'un des meilleurs spots de bubble tea à Montréal et en font leur choix pour se faire plaisir ou pour déguster un dessert en boisson, avec un personnel sympathique qui peut proposer des extras comme des freebies d'anniversaire. Les boissons phares telles que le "alley trio milk tea" et les options brown sugar reviennent souvent; les amateurs apprécient la variété et la qualité dans l'ensemble, même si certains commentaires évoquent des expériences moins positives: boissons trop sucrées même à demi-sucre, erreurs de commande, goût inhabituel ou thé au jasmin brûlé, perles pas tout à fait cuites et parfois des limites comme l'absence de lait d'avoine. Des expériences malheureuses, y compris des cas d'intoxication alimentaire, ont aussi été signalées. Malgré cela, l'ambiance conviviale et la popularité du lieu persistent, faisant de The Alley une référence locale pour les amateurs de bubble tea à Montréal.
A small little shop for really fresh bubble tea! The store itself has a nice aesthetic, but there's not too much seating. I tried the Deerioca ube puff. I enjoyed how strong tea flavor was still present while having delicious creaminess. If you're visiting Montreal, this Taiwanese bubble tea shop is definitely worth a visit!
Have usually had pleasant experiences here. They have good milk tea. I Asked for a brown sugar milk tea, got a tiramisu milk tea. When I told the worker that it's the wrong drink, she gave me attitude saying that's what you asked for I heard you. Misunderstandings happen but was unwilling to correct the mistake which is very upsetting.

Nice ambiance & service! The orange lulu was good :) (i dont recommend the strawberry green tea if you dont like the slightly bitter taste of green tea)
The Alley is definitely one of the best bubble tea spots in Montreal! It's so fresh & savoury, especially the'alley trio milk tea' (THE BEST!!). As a student, every time I want to treat myself & crave bubble tea, I come to this amazing place! RECOMMEND 100%
My favorite bubble tea in Montreal! If you are a brown sugar lover, this is your place. They have a lot of options & they never disappointed me over the last 2 years.
Really good bubble tea place, & had some wild options. Even at half sugar they were too sweet for me, but I'm not going to dock them any points for that. If you want a dessert in a glass, this is the place.
Disappointing, tried it three nights in our trip since we usually enjoy The Alley. Matcha had a weird aftertaste, got our drink wrong another time & just overall weak flavors. Jasmine tea was burnt & bitter.
I hated bubble tea until I tried bubble tea here, & so far, I've loved everything I've tried. This is one of my special treat places, & one of the places I take guests to when we're in the area. The boba & jellies are just right - sweet, firm, chewy, perfect texture & flavour. The long line can be annoying. It's a good place & popular, so that's something to consider, that there could be a wait to order, even though the staff behind the counter always seem efficient & hard at work. Bilingual staff.
Delicious Boba tea! Their pearls are real with caramel taste, not like other places using only starch. Only down side is the store is a little dusty & spider web on their frames.

The tea was really good, but the service was not... They didn't give the right order to my friend. Also it took more than 15 minutes to receive our orders & the place was almost empty. The casier had trouble understanding French or English.. that's sad because the bubble teas were so good!!
No matter where you are in the world, The Alley consistently delivers on high quality boba especially in a place that doesn't typically have artisan boba available. I'm a self-proclaimed boba connoisseur so I fully expected to enjoy this drink, & I did. They offer a variety of high quality milk & fruit tea beverages, & even offer non-dairy milk which made it the ideal situation for myself. I went with a Jasmine Soy Milk Tea Latte with Boba & it was refreshingly perfect. Boba was soft & satisfying, the milk tea had the perfect level of sweetness to it, & I was happy. Service was friendly & quick, & the decor inside had The Alley's trademark antlers welcoming guests to the shop. Definitely recommend as a spot for boba if you're downtown.
