Tea Cafe — Restaurant in Oʻahu

Tea Cafe is a really cute small shop in a huge shopping center. They don't have indoor dining right now so there's a table propping open the front door and it's set up to take orders and sell knick knacks.

Service is very sweet. There were two people that I could see trying to fulfill what seemed to be a consistent stream of in person and online orders. There's a huge QR code on the glass wall that you can scan and order online through. Also, as soon as we walked up to the open door, even though no one was there because they were in the other end of the shop making drinks, someone yelled to address us and let us know they'd be with us soon. She actually came faster than we could decide our orders and she was very patient with us. It was our first time there and she answered all of our questions thoughtfully and was kind in getting our order.

The drinks were good. I ordered an Oolong Milk Tea with Boba and my husband got the Mango Black Tea with Lychee jelly. Even with 100% sweetness level it didn't turn out too sweet. The boba was soft and a little sweet. It was a very refreshing. We also got the egg waffles. This took 10mins to make and it was delicious. The egg waffle was crispy on the edges and inside was soft and fluffy.

If you're in the area, I suggest...

I wish they would’ve had a sign out on the door that they were out of boba. Google says they close at 9pm so I head over with my younger cousin & get there by 8:20pm to order a drink. The sign on door says to call so we call at least 3 times while the cashier is staring at us from the inside watching us call & didn’t even bother to answer the phone until our third time calling. She then answers to say that they are out of boba & only have limited options totally get it. I’ve heard they are very popular but 5 minutes later as we are leaving she brings out a drink with boba. Like my thing was the attitude she was rude about it & we didn’t get a “sorry about the inconvenience” or anything. If you want to go home & not be there then close earlier do not put it in the customer!...

I am visiting from los angeles and order Thai Tea at every boba shop I go to around LA and so far in my time on O'ahu ( which has been daily at different cafes) This was the BEST Thai tea I have had in a while and the mango pineapple smoothie was also delicious. The woman working was very kind, and speedy for being the only one behind counter taking a few orders at once. I recommended Tea Cafe...
