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.
I went during their collaboration with Spy X Family & the interior design was so cute. The place is already cosy & friendly to begin with so the addition of the cute merchandise only made it better in my opinion. The drinks were pretty good, better than a lot of other places I have been to. The tapioca were a bit chewier than what I would have liked but they were still pretty good. The service was smiling & they were all very friendly & patient, it was a great experience. One thing that I feel like it is not as good as other places is probably the size. Compared to some other chains, the size of the drinks are a bit small for the price.
delicious boba! the seating area is very cozy. i asked to add tapioca to a drink & they said that it wasn't possible so i had to take another drink... waiting for the drink was a bit long but it was worth it at the end, the flavours were so fresh & refreshing ;)
One of my favorite bubble tea places! The sizing is perfect for me, but is rather small compared to some other places (for the same price). However, the tapioca pearls are very good & of better quality than more popular stores. I've had the tiramisu one, & it was sooo good! All the drinks I've tried so far were really good & not too sweet:)
Weird little place with a nice fake tree inside (shoutout to 1000 de la gauchetiere before it became boring) The entrance really didn't look like an entrance, not much seating inside but the menu & pricing was a nice huge board so easy to read. Bobbas are on the extremely sweet side, hyped to go there but we weren't impressed with the price to quality & taste ratio. Doesn't taste like the the Alley in China. There are more interesting offerings around.
it's my favorite bubble tea spot in montreal! there are so many boba places in the city but this is hands-down the best. they offer such a wide range of delicious drinks that never fail to impress me. the pearls are chewy just enough & are always consistent (they are always the same size, same consistency & texture. some other places have a lot of trouble with that) the prices are reasonable for the quality you get. not to mention this chain frequently collabs with franchises such as sanrio or jujutsu kaisen to release special limited time drinks! it's very refreshing to have a chain that regularly updates their menu.
Super yummy! I got the Deerioca Fever milk tea & quite enjoyed it. I recommend adding more sweetness as the flavour has a plain milk taste. But aside from that, a beautifully crafted drink, definitely will be coming back. Thank you The Alley Montreal 🧋🫶🏻
