Drinks are tasty but their business hours are not accurate as it shows on Google Map, I've came in for a several time and FINALLY got a chance to try out their drinks. Business hours should always be up-to-date!
Since my discovery of this place, I have stopped going to Meet Fresh, which is not the best, but better than most places. Royal Tea’s Brown Sugar Brûlée is super! Location wise, not the best, but then what do you expect in Oakland Chinatown! Besides, we usually order, get our drinks and leave so all good.
I got the Lychee Tea with boba and it was good! Only miss was that I didn't get enough of the fruity Lychee flavor, just tea. I got 75% sugar and some places make it way too bitter when you don't get regular sugar, but this place made it moderate which was good. Service was fast too.
Poor customer service, the lady that took my order legit just argued with me that I did not order boba when I did! She pretty much accused me of lying about 50 cent boba, instead of arguing with me, why don't you just fix the order. It's not my fault you took my order 10 feet away and didn't hear me when I wanted to add boba. I left with no boba because I didn't want to spend any more time there. I will never return, rude and unhelpful and the tea wasn't even good.
Order 6 milk tea took 25 minutes to make such a waist of time. They take forever don’t bother to come here if you don’t have 30 minutes to wait
One of my top boba shops, love the cheese mousse, boba also super chewy which is great. Could be overly sweet for some people though, especially on the brown sugar bobas where you can’t adjust the sugar level.
I loved both of the drinks I tried. My partner got the Iced cream puff milk tea which was delicious. If you want to try something creamy with flavor, I recommend their milk teas. I got the very refreshing passionfruit tea. The cups are very take-out friendly, and the wait was less than five minutes. I recommend it. Very well made, there was a lot of flavor, and the cups were not overfilled with ice (as they tend to do in most places).
It’s basically your average boba shop but can quickly get you your drink
Great cream. Average pricing. Relatively fast preparation.
