I tried the Mango/Raspberry Freezes with Pineapple boba; it tasted good but didn't quite match the flavors. Prices and proportions are solid at 4/5, and customer service is friendly, earning a 4/5. Overall, a decent spot with room for flavor improvement.

My partner and I returned to the Tea Yard tonight because we wanted some more of their delicious…read moreteas. The last time we were here, the matcha tornado had been marked as discontinued. This time, although that sign was still up over one menu, the rest of them were not. So, I took a chance and ordered it. I asked for half sugar, because I usually ask for 25%, but I figured with matcha frappe, I might need a little. It turned out good, but I think I expected more of the creme brulee to be present, and that was my mistake. It was mainly a matcha frappe (matcha and ice blended together) with a hint of the creme brulee along the side. By 1/3 of the way down, my mouth was numb from the cold. I probably won't order this one again, at least not in 30 F weather- haha. My partner got the same drink as last time, except this time he ordered a large. He got the brown sugar milk tea; 50% sugar; little ice. Add creme brulee topping. That was delicious, just like last time. The people working here are very sweet. I'm not sure if they are a family, but they seem like it. They work very well as a unit with the young woman at the register, and the elder man and woman making the drinks. The inside is cute. There is one small table and two benched areas with various designs on the walls, and the toy machines toward the back. We are planning to come here more often and try other flavors!

This review is for the reserved tea room experience…read more I consider myself a tea connoisseur. A lover of fresh tea and the tea experience. A pinky finger sticking out while slipping on the flavors of comfort. I booked this spot to bring my girlfriend from Antioch, IL. (Wisconsin) Although we talk on the phone, online and text, we haven't seen each other in person in a few years. I've always wanted to do high tea and thought that would be great for us to catch up, since we both enjoy tea. Imagine my surprise when I found a place on the south side and black owned!! I had her bypass the places downtown and come to the south side to experience this place. This place is everything I imagined it to be. The tea selection is great! The service and explanation about the tea is top notch. And our server was 19 years old telling us about the teas! (Thanks Kameryn!!) My only recommendation is to add a thin fresh lemon sliced in a circle and not a wedge. A wedge is too big. That would add to the daintiness. Although I reserved the tea room, the other side of the shop is just as beautiful. I will definitely be back to drink tea and chill on my own! To the owners, THANK YOU! Thank you for adding this place to the south side, so we don't have to go downtown for a superb experience. Thank you for providing a beautiful spot and excellent service!

The gentleman at the register informed me that they had just taken over a different shop about 2 weeks ago, so I congratulated him! He gave excellent service and was very nice and accommodating. My pomegranate boba was too sweet at 25% sweetness level and less ice, but the pomegranate fruity flavor was right on point, and the boba was cooked quite nicely! If I ordered the drink again, I'd just get it at 0 or no extra sugar/syrup added. The boba shop was small, but cutely designed. Prices were about average, so if you're in the mood for amazing boba tea, then go elsewhere, but if you just want a boba tea fix, then this place has your back.
