Thai chili Popcorn Chicken
Cool P K.

Our friend recommended this place and we enjoyed Tiger tea and pop corn chicken it last time. Tiger tea was good but still a bit sweet even with 25% digest. So we decided to come again and tried online order for Tiger dirty tea and thai chili popcorn chicken. The chili popcorn is great. Tiger dirty tea is perfect with a bit of brown sugar. Suggestion is not to order food online at all because you will still need to get in line to inform staff. Nothing on the order confirmation page says that customers are required to do so. Don't waste your time.

Inside
Chen H.

We have been here quite a few times and always charmed by its interior designs, tasty drinks, as well as friendly service staff. My parents wanted to try something new this time, so they went for some more fancy matcha latte and milk tea drinks, and I opted for my usual fav. The lady helping us was super sweet and patient. And we all loved our drinks.

first off wow, the people here were amazin. zen presentations beautiful very patient with helping select and try out the Boba. people skills and customer service made everyone feel welcome all different ages and skin shades very free

Really good popcorn chicken plate  & boba

Pretty good. I would come back again. Fries portion was great. As for boba me and my son both enjoyed ours.

Oolong milk tea
Hung L.

The milk tea plain, the boba is not fresh even though I purchased the drink around 11 am. The cup looks cheap and the straw is too small that you cant suck up the boba at all. Quite disappointed.

Caramel Milky Way
Christine W.

The caramel Milky Way is very sweet! Looks prettier in person than in the picture tho. It's got cream, pudding, boba, and milk--all good things. Service is always good- cashier is usually quite friendly. People working hard to cook the meals are also kind when they bring out the food. The whole vibe of the place has changed over time but it's good.

So good! We got the Dirty Tiger and Strawberry Oolong Tea. This place is cute and service was very fast! Reasonable prices as well! It's in a busy strip mall where Trader Joe's is so parking can be a bit busy but worth it!

Spiced Chai for the win!
Mo F.

Another cute tea house (and it has a prime location between two of my favorite places to be - Barnes & Noble and Trader Joe's!!!!). The Spicy Chai (regular milk, regular sweetener) was so delicious! The decor was nice, especially the swing in the back near the pickup area. Quick service too in spite of the place being nearly full. I enjoyed my beverage and will definitely be visiting this location again.

Since rebranding and some store changes in the Triangle, I will admit that Cha House Cary is my favorite location. The workers here tend to be more patient, and there's more inside seating if you're looking to catch up with a friend or get some work done. This time, I ordered my standard black milk tea with less ice and half sugar. I thought it was awesome that they gave me a dome cap because there was leftover liquid in the shaker. My drink was as good as boba can get in the Triangle!

Strawberry green tea with 25% less sugar and light ice
Chandra J.

Checked out the Cha House a while ago through a Yelp event and was planning to go back at some point as I really liked it! And I see why I did, Cha House's menu and service are great! I was a little overwhelmed by the number of options but was able to narrow it down to their cold teas. The strawberry sounded lovely, so I went with that! I like that there is an option to select the amount of sugar and ice. I went with 25% sugar and light ice and it was delicious! With less sugar, it still had a ton of flavor. When it was brought out to me, it came with such a sweet smile and greeting from the staff. It really made my day. Add to this the cool music and chill atmosphere. This is a great place to meet up with friends or read a book on your own. I will be back!

Lavender earl grey milk tea
Briana F.

I got the lavender earl grey milk tea, it was very good! The service was fast and the place was nice to sit down and chat. Would definitely go back again!

Love this place! Have you checked their condiment area? They have recycled napkins. I love going to this place. They are consistent and I love their atmosphere. This place brought me nostalgia of my university days back in Montréal. This was the kind of place where I used to study or met up for school projects. We would drink boba, order food and work. I have been to this place numerous times and everything is like the first time meaning their food, service and atmosphere never changed. My kids would beg to go here after a taekwondo tournament. I love how they serve their meal. It's in a carton compostable container so if you cannot finish your meal, you can take it home instead of asking for a container. As for boba, you can customize to your liking. Love this place! It's my go to place in Cary.

Passion Fruit Tea w/out boba
Katrina B.

My son and I are dinner at the hotpot place a couple doors down. They get their tea from here. My son enjoyed his so much that we didn't to find them after dinner. The inside was so cute, clean and bright. It kind of reminds me of the high end places a lot of "influencers" frequent for TikTok or IG content. They young lady working the register was very sweet. I ordered a passion fruit tea with lychee and no boba. It tasted great. Right near the register thy have a flyer of some popular drinks. I really wish I had ordered something different based on the picture. Not that my drink wasn't good but those drinks looked absolutely delicious. They also serve food but we didn't order and since we just ate. I'll be back for sure. Next time we'll order food.

The pastry case is a showstopper: berry-topped croissants with fresh whipped cream, fruit danishes, ube buns, almond twists, and savory options like the garlic-herb bun and hot dog danish. I came for the bakery but stayed for the drink menu, which is huge -- milk teas, fruit teas, yogurt smoothies, sparkling teas, and a full coffee lineup. One heads-up: the Coffee Crush ($4.95) is essentially just Dalgona coffee -- that whipped instant-coffee-over-milk drink that went viral a few years back. It's tasty, but know that you're paying café prices for something you can whip up at home with three ingredients. Would've loved a little more transparency on the menu there. Pastries are fresh (seemingly), drinks are solid, and the space is genuinely lovely for sitting a while. Worth a visit -- just go in knowing what the Coffee Crush actually is.

The boba had the perfect chewy texture, and the pastries looked just as good as they tasted. It's one of those places where it's hard to leave with just one item. The atmosphere is bright, clean, and inviting, making it a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or enjoy a quick treat. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially when deciding between the many drink and pastry options. Overall, Brecotea offers a consistently enjoyable experience, and it's definitely a place I'll keep coming back to.

It's located alongside the leasing office for the apartment complex. The service is great. There were two young ladies working and they were both friendly. I arrived around 4:30 on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and ordered a muffin and a decaf latte since it was so late (for me to drink caffeine). The cranberry lemon muffin was absolutely perfect, so much flavor, so fresh & moist. The Salted Brown Butter Latte was the best. From the first sip to the last drop, I loved it. I sat on a small section of a very comfortable couch with pillows and all. I later sat out front on one of the benches. They also have a patio seating out back. I can't wait to go back to Thousand Hills!!

We share a car, and with her…read morejob having her out of town about half the time, I've gotten pretty good at finding little adventures on the drive home. This particular morning, I knew I wanted to stop by Trader Joe's afterward, but they weren't open yet. So I pulled up the map looking for a coffee shop where I could get a little coworking done. Thousand Hills Coffee popped up, and it had been on my "need to try" list for a while. I also shot my buddy KH a quick text to see if he wanted to join me and catch up on our latest ultra running training shenanigans. Thankfully, he was game. I rolled in around 8:30 a.m. and managed to grab a decent parking spot. Worth mentioning because the coffee shop shares parking with the apartment complex next door, so I imagine spaces can disappear quickly. KW arrived a few minutes before me and had to park a bit farther away. Walking inside, I immediately liked the vibe. It feels modern but still cozy, almost like someone's really well-designed living room. There are several distinct seating areas, plenty of soft chairs, a long community table, and even bar seating overlooking the baristas. It struck a nice balance between coffee shop and comfortable workspace. Since I'd already knocked out my morning run, I was ready for a little breakfast. KH and I both ordered the cheese, Danish. It looked huge in the display case, though it shrank a bit once it made it onto the plate. That said, it was really flavorful and definitely worth ordering. I also grabbed a regular drip coffee, which was excellent. My timing was amusing because they had just finished the last pot and were brewing a fresh one, but honestly, getting a fresh cup probably worked out for the best. We grabbed chairs next to the long community table instead at the table since the morning sun was already heating things up. We spent a while catching up, talking running, races, and all the usual endurance athlete nonsense. After KH headed out, I relocated to the long table that was in the shade and spent another hour or so catching up on emails and getting a little work done. It turned out to be a great co-working spot with plenty of room to spread out without feeling like you were taking up space. One last shoutout to the staff, who were genuinely friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. Good coffee is one thing, but great people always make the experience better. Overall, I came away impressed. Somehow, they've been open for about two years, and I'm honestly not sure how they managed to stay off my radar for so long. Safe to say they'll be making it into my regular rotation whenever I need a good cup of coffee and a comfortable place to get some work done.

It took some time to find parking as the surrounding parking lots were full, but I found street parking around the corner. The ambiance is warm and cozy. Brew and the Cary Theater share common space, so you can enter from either entrance. The service is awesome, I was waited on right away and the barista was helpful with suggestions. I ordered a cookie butter latte and an oatmeal raisin cookie w/ walnuts. Both were absolutely delicious, a great combo. When I finished my latte, I dipped my cookie in the cup to get the last of the foam...so good. The baked goods are from Ninth Street Bakery in Durham. How amazing local supporting local. I sat at the bar area. I loved that there were hooks underneath for your belongings, you don't see that everywhere. They have the high top areas, along with a few tables and chairs. I'm so glad I was able to finally experience Brew, looking forward to going back.

Overall, the little coffee shop is cute and has a little bit of outdoor seating which I liked but is expensive for being so mid in my opinion. I ended up paying almost $7 for a blueberry latte. Overall, my latte tasted like a regular latte, even though it did have a seasonal blueberry syrup added to it. I know that blueberry is very light in flavor compared to coffee so I asked for more than the allotted amount of syrup and their response was that they had a certain amount added to of syrups added. So I said ok thinking they would take that into consideration but when I got my coffee, guess the amount they added didn't matter because it tasted the same as a latte regular. Unfortunately, at the end of my coffee (like the last 20%) had what I assume to be bits of berry in it? The texture made me toss the remaining amount. With the high prices and the location right on a busy street / no parking I probably wouldn't be back but I did enjoy being about to sit outside under an umbrella and the service was nice / fast. All the stars would go to the servers and overall cleanliness honestly.

Ich liebe Annelores deutsche Bäckerei!…read more I first got goodies from Annelore's booth at the State Farmer's Market in Raleigh. The Apfel (apple) turnover was delicious, as was the Heidelbeerkuchen (blueberry cake) and Zitronenschnitten (lemon bar). I saw a nice gentlemen there that day who I think may be part owner; based on what I see on their website I wonder if it was Herr Norbert. While waiting for another guy behind the counter to bag my goodies, I happened to mention (to who I think was Norbert) that I'm learning German, and he spoke some basic German to me! Which I understood - OMG, must tell my German teacher. A couple weeks later I needed to bring desserts to our monthly Book Club meeting, and Annelore's was my first thought. I decided to visit their actual store in Cary. Even though it's an hour away from home, I stopped by one day when I had to go to Raleigh for an appointment. An Annelore's employee helped me with selecting about six cake slices and 2-3 different bars, plus some German cookies. The inside of the store is very clean, and there are some places to sit if you'd like to eat there. The employees were kind and helpful (and patient, in my case, trying to decide what to buy for a Book Club group I'd never met in person). Annelore's German Bakery is a wonderful way to take care of your dessert needs and support a local business at the same time. If you need a dessert, cake, scones, or other treats for your home gathering, BBQ, church social, potluck, business lunch, or other event, I would definitely let Annelore's take care of that part for you! 10/10, highly recommend!

They asked me if I wanted my bread sliced, and when I replied in the affirmative, gave me a helpful chart with a lot of different options for how thick I wanted each slice :) I took the bread home, stuck it in the oven, and ate it with some butter and jam. Delicious! My kids really liked it as well. Overall, I will definitely come back!
