I placed an order through the app at 11:50 am (Order No. 8) for three drinks, and when my boyfriend went to collect them shortly after, he was told by a male staff member that they were not ready. When we returned later, I showed my receipt and order number to a female staff member, but despite the drinks being on the table and matching exactly what I ordered, she refused to release them because the name on the cups did not match. This was extremely frustrating, as I had provided two clear pieces of evidence — the receipt and the order number — which should be the primary reference for verifying orders, especially since names can duplicate or appear differently in the system if they are long or shortened. Rather than cross-checking the drinks properly, she dismissed my proof and repeatedly told me I was being “mean,” without offering any apology, which I found both unprofessional and disrespectful.

I do regret my $16 spending today and this unfortunately has put me off from ordering again at...
Read moreDelicious tea in compostable cups! I would recommend the jasmine milk tea with pearls, earl gray or cookies & cream.
Last time I visited here there were around four staff working, I tried some of my hot jasmine milk tea and noticed it was lukewarm- not hot. A staff member then offered to reheat it for me and was quite adamant about it. I appreciated it and allowed it, as I wasn't in a rush.
The kiosk addition helps a lot, though I am very confused why there is a separate listing for "jasmine milk tea with pearls" when there is already a "jasmine milk tea" listing where you add pearls on the next selection menu.
Overall, very delicious tea and a lot of variety to...
