Just like little kids. My wife orders through the kiosk. Because she can and seems to enjoy it. I do not. In fact, I'm not sure there's a cashier option available, lol, wasn't even thinking about it. We've changed up ingredients to try and find the perfect combo. Hasn't happened yet. The Coffee and the Strawberry creame cheese cups are outstanding. I would also recommend one of the fruit teas, such as peach fruit tea. The Strawberry smoothie is always a great go to. You could always do like Mrs. E. and order one of the many snowice selections or add boba to a jasmine tea. One feature I feel is important is the sugar control. It's a smart idea to let folks control their sugar percentage. It's a wonderful place to just chill and (in our case) beat the heat. 10/24

There are a couple of seating options inside but it feels more of a order your drink and go type of place. I ordered the ube cheesecake drink with Biscoff cookies in it. It was good but on the uber sweet side. It was almost too sweet. It got better as the ice started to melt. They have a lot of unique flavors. I think one of their other teas might have been a better choice, but I wanted to go with something that I have never tried before.

The staff were super friendly and efficient. I ordered an Ube Ube (double ube) drink, and ordered my husband a Pomelo Mango Sago. The space was very modern and beautiful, but not much seating was available. It looks like they may be expanding though? Overall, the Ube Ube drink was incredible. I got it without tea and it was creamy, sweet, and really hit the spot. My husband said his drink was pretty good, but he's not sure if he would choose it again. I will be back for more Ube!

Somehow I left with a non-mango drink, but it was a game time decision to try the weekly special - taro coconut twist. I wasn't sure at first, but it grew on me.

Enjoyed my little afternoon outing. Will definitely come again.

Situated in a cue lil food court next to Dayou, Mr Tea thrives on me being too lazy to go somewhere else to get a sweet treat when I'm like knees deep in spicy noods. That said, I did actually very much like the fresh mango slush with cheese macchiato. Even though mangoes are nawt in season, the drink appeared to have real mango chunks in addition to mango jelly. Very refreshing! However, my second encounter with a tea-forward drink was more disappointing. I decided to give the osmanthus latte a try but it tasted quite watered down, almost like they maybe use milk instead of a creamer? The osmanthus flavor was also not strong enough. Overall, a decent place to grab fruity boba if you are in the vicinity but it wouldn't be my first choice if you are looking for tea.

It has a variety of Asian desserts, drinks & boba teas. I had the Herbal Jelly & Taro which was pretty good but don't feel the need to repeat any time soon. I just wish they still had the Mango Pomelo Sago Bowl. They have turned it into a sort of smoothie with the sago in a cup, but I want the whole dessert version they used to do with the fresh fruit chunks, sago, ice cream, etc (look at older pictures on here if you don't know what I'm talking about). Atmosphere is great w/ cozy sitting & different kinds of tables. The place isn't huge, so it might not accommodate a big group if they're busy. Bathrooms are nice & spacious and well kept. Service is good. You can order either at the counter or at one of the two electronic kiosks. One big complaint for me is that neither their menu or the kiosk have any details on what is inside foot desserts & some drinks. Even in online ordering it's a guessing game. Overall, this place is a gem & has authentic offerings you might not find at other parts of Columbus.

I like how you can alter the amount of sweetness on any drink. Their ordering system was weird this time. Everyone stood in line by the register to order (because that's where the machine was this time) instead of ordering at the register. It made much more sense when it was towards the opening of the store & you could pick how you wanted to order. They're too busy unfortunately to ask any questions, so you better know what you want! The game machines were a nice touch & I wasted a few dollars on that while I waited.

They also have food but becuase we were in a time crunch to get back on the road to continue driving we couldn't try it because it's a 20 min wait. It's all made to order. The food from the picture looked all good. The staff was very friendly and were patient while they waited for our order. Definitely a cute place to visit with my boyfriend. They have a lot of open sitting. We choose a coffee milk tea and Oreo crème Brulee. The Oreo was aesthetic and pretty to look at. The boba was squishy and not hard just like we like our boba. One thing is that the tea had a lemon taste that it wasn't bad but it was unexpected and just wasn't something we expected. It wasn't our prefer cup of tea. Overall, if we pass again we might try it.

Kid K saw it and wanted bubble tea after a hot day at the zoo (we had stopped for something at Trader Joe's.) Huge selection of drinks (only complaint: tiny print on menu screen on the wall, though they do also have it printed out and I bet it is on the computer kiosk.) Kid got an Oreo milk tea with bubbles, and loved it. I got a mango slushie and also loved it: refreshing, with mango bits in it. I had planned to pick up supper for later somewhere nearby, but they do have a couple of food items, Taiwanese sausage and popcorn chicken. So, saved a stop. The sausage is a small portion, just a snack; tender, flavorful, a little sweet. I'd get another. The popcorn chicken was a bigger portion, almost a meal's worth, and can be covered with several flavor powders. I got curry. There's also pepper, basil, and a few more. It was good. Tender bits of chicken, crispy, with flavor but not overwhelming. Would definitely get again. I would go a bit out of my way for this, as would Kid K. But at Sawmill and 161, and near Meijer and TJ's among many other places, you probably don't have to. Check it out.

Must have been from the waffles & although that's not something I'd normally consider ordering, one whiff & I was craving them sooo bad! Not to mention that the prospect of exciting versions of them (like Pandan or Ube) made me want to ruin my dinner plans. So after I gained some self control, I ordered what seems like the healthiest & lighest drink up there. It just happened to also have all the flavors of things I adore. The Bambu Special is coconut meat, pandan jelly, brown longan, basil seed (think similar to a chia seed) & coconut water. All this with a crushed ice ball on top. Wow!! So subtle yet flavorful at the same time. I can't wait to make my way down their entire menu . The service: Another wow! The woman behind the counter was so nice & helpful. I mentioned how I like that it's a Vietnamese drink shop & she mentioned that her sister (I think an owner) & herself were both from Cambodia...one of my favorite places I've traveled to. It all made sense as the kindest people in all my travels were in Cambodia. She gave me future recommendations & I promised to return! The atmosphere: Clean, bright, variety of styled of seats, couches, high tops, & greenery walls that have cute neon signs. Wish this place was closer because it definitely had a coffee shop vibe. As a boba addict, I think I might have to pick this place over all the amazing boba options in that area & that's saying a lot! Please go try these goodies for yourself & support our local business owners!
