I have low standards for services in Calgary and accept low standard services but this place is the lowest of the low. My two kids ordered two drinks, we kindly asked for 1 extra straw to share , the manager told me" it's going to cost you 25 cents, you want it with a big ugly grin" no joke, I looked at him and said that's the last time we visit here and I threw the receipt on the counter, June 9 @ 2.25PM, 1 Strawberry Foam and 1 Avocado Mango Pearls and Flavor and large size upgrade totally extra 3 bucks on top the drink price, you don't think I can afford a quarter, if it's in my drink and I can eat it, glad it pay for it.

While the service was good overall, they messed up the smoothie twice I suppose and has to remake it. Since we waited for almost ten minutes they made some rose milk drink complementary for us which was a good gesture. Definitely...
Read moreGong Cha offers a delightful experience for bubble tea enthusiasts. Their menu is extensive, with a wide variety of flavors and toppings to choose from. On my recent visit, I tried the caramel milk tea, which was deliciously rich and creamy with the perfect balance of sweetness. The tapioca pearls were fresh and chewy, adding a great texture to the drink.
The ambiance of the shop is cozy and inviting, making it a nice spot to relax or catch up with friends. The staff is efficient and friendly, ensuring a smooth and pleasant ordering process.
The only downside is that the prices are a bit higher compared to other bubble tea shops. However, the quality of the drinks and the overall experience make it worth the occasional splurge.
