This was my first time visiting Alderwood Mall, and as a tradition, I always get bubble tea at malls. I spotted the outside Braganza Tea while looking for parking.
Staff were attentive and super quick in preparing my beverage.
It’s set up is very appealing. It is does not have immediate entry into the mall and is on the outside similar to a stand alone tea shop. The decor is clean, simple, and modern. The menu is straightforward and easy to read.

Definitely give this place a try if you're a...

Overall, the honey matcha milk tea with boba and pudding I ordered was tasty and per the recommendation of the staff I went with medium sweetness as it’s normally very sweet.
4/5 Honey matcha milk tea medium sweet with boba and pudding. $4.50 for drink and 50 cents extra for the pudding. The Yelp checkin promotion took off 50% Parking: free and and relatively easy as it’s part of the mall parking Interior: comfortable and very empty on a Saturday night. There’s...
