T4 - Tea for U — Restaurant in Colchester

Since moving to the UK from Malaysia, I’ve struggled to find a bubble tea that truly satisfies my cravings. I’ve tried places in London, Manchester, and many more, but they’re often too sweet, too watered down, or lacking any real tea flavor—despite the hefty price tag.

My highlight of my visit would have been the service, when I ever have a query they are always friendly and answer the question which I thank them for that. I will definitely be back for more boba tea in the future maybe even trying a few I...

The male staff with long blonde hair was very impolite. There was a long line, and so we could choose a drink while queing. When we got to the counter we were just informed that there were no pearls. And so I wasted more time finding another drink to order. While I was choosing, the the staff was pouting, as if he was bored that I had to take more time. The same thing happened with the next customer. As pearls are integral to majority of their drinks, he should have made a signage to inform people they don't have it or inform people early while they are still choosing...
