Coco Mango is good. Avocado smoothie base is light and gives a slight nutty taste. Mango sauce at the bottom, good flavor, a bit stringy from the mango fibers. You can only have it 75% sweetness. Solid service, completed in reasonable amount of time depending on how many people are there. It's a cafe after all. Selfie machine inside. Finally, they did something with that plaza, it's been years since I've last went there for that big restaurant at the top of the main building. Kind of nostalgic but we know why they're putting up the boba shops first.

I've been here now what seems like 8 times in the past two months, and it is one of those milk tea places where all the pretentiousness oozes right out the glass doors and hits you in the face before you enter. From the aloof nature of the cashiers taking your order to the overpriced pastries on display and even to the strangely designed interior where functional space for queuing to order makes no sense, all of it should be red flags this place is all flash and no substance. Yet, when the drinks come out somehow the flavors and taste melt away all those glaring signs. The atmosphere starts to mellow out and you start to see how well the colors on the walls and choice of wood for the seats create a harmonious feel, even if the pathways are still a long list of OSHA violations. Their top 10 best sellers are the same it seems no matter where you go (we saw the exact same list at a different location in Arcadia), but there is no lie when it comes to those drinks. They really are delicious and great choices. The ingredients feel fresh and teas taste rich. I don't know if the cha is redefined but perhaps refined is a good description. When I first tried Cha Redefine, I wanted to hate it. All of the initial impressions really made me want to kick rocks and prove how overrated this place would be, especially for the prices. However, after drinking a good number of drinks I don't think I can hate it. I can still think the service is whack, the design is daft, and the price is high, but the drinks are legit good. Cha Redefine is a treat worth having and one even more enjoyable when someone else pays.

I have ordered from here multiple times now. They have cute bags and so many drink options. Their drinks are decent, imo. Kinda pricey... All the drinks I have tried were ok. Not the best but not the worst. Something to drink when thirsty. If you go during the evening or night time, it is best to avoid their pastries. We got a plain croissant at night. They gave it to us without warming it up or anything. It was hard as rock. After warming it up, it wasn't even warm. It was still cold. It got even harder lol Not something I would drive outta my way for. They closes late so it is convenient when needing a drink while in the area

CHA REDEFINE is one of the best spots to get delicious drinks with a variety of flavors including coffee !! Sometimes I find it hard to get my matcha, coffee and GOOD BOBA FIX in the same store. This place has it all! I literally never tried a drink here I didn't think was bomb. Good service, it is quite a long wait ... but it's pretty inside and clean, lots of comfy seating and when you get drink it's all worth it. My FAVE IS : Mochi barely milk tea with POPPING BARELY that is so delicious and a great refreshing switch from traditional boba but still getting that chew, I usually always get sugar but this one with 0% sugar is still delicious because the mochi is sweet. Mango Mango : if you love mango sago drinks, this one is so refreshing and again, no need to add sugar it's perfect with 0% sugar still sweet and has jasmine green tea which makes it extra good imo perfect balance. If you like peach tea, please get the peach chappucino so good! I also tried their coconut and matcha gelato , it's ceremonial grease matcha and you can taste the richness. 100/10 Follow me for more foodie drink reviews -Living with Luci

I'm so excited for the San Gabriel location to be open! They'll have ice cream and croissants and pastries on top of their normal menu as well. The store typically opens around 11 or 11:30am and it's spacious so there's a good amount of seating as compared to other locations.

6/25/26 I was really excited & rearing to go in.... Entered the doors and was told, "We open at 11". I figured it was an open door that they were. Would've passed the chance coz time is money but J figured J will take my business elsewhere but decided to return. J walked over to Kee Wah. When I returned, it was starting to pick up already. My less than warm reception was not impressive. The young man at the counter did not greet me and I may have startled him when I loudly said "Hi! Good morning!" as I stood there waiting for him to acknowledge the presence of a customer. If anything, I value these interactions & it didn't bode well. Ambiance is modern, clean, even the single stall restroom was clean and furnished for comfort. Music is extremely loud, not much for conversation if you would like to stay to enjoy your beverage with a friend, unless you relish shouting over each other. Perhaps it's only geared for the younger crowd. I ordered the HOT Sri Lanka Ceylon Cha Latte with oat (extra $0.75 for the oat milk)--- the only reason I'm giving it a 3 star rating. This beverage was actually very good. Not many beverages are made hot here (silly me, I thought tea & coffee are traditionally served hot vs. cold). The house cream made it palatable & the crunchy nut bits were a pleasant surprise. This is newly opened in the TAWA Gateway plaza, with many businesses sharing the lot, which I'm fairly certain will be packed in peak hours. The experience was lackluster as it was not the most welcoming atmosphere from the staff but at least I gave it a try.

Sg has become the spot for boba. I ahve been trying to try all the new spots that just open and i am so glad to have finally checked off cha redefine. for co text, I have tried the arcadia location before. I remember getting a fruit juice (cant recall which) but i wasnt really vibing with it. however, when the sg location opened, ive been seeing/hearing sm hype about this place and decided to give it another go! we came, and it was pretty crowded but our order came out pretty quick! we ordered the - Sri Lanka Ceylon latte (7/10) loved the pecans & whipped cream. base was not as tea-a compared to the other mainland boba shops in sg but still phenomenal! also not too sweet - canneli? (idk if i spelled correctly, 5/10) would've given it an 8/10 but it was 3.75 per piece which was kinda insane to me. but it was rlly good. it kinda tasted like an elevated madeline cookie, rich and fluffy in the inside with a burnt crisp texture on the outside. - Coco mango Gelato (10/10) so good omg! I love ice cream, and this hit home!! loved the Gelato u can rlly taste the cream. the fruits were very fresh and sweet!

Staff is really helpful in recommending drinks. Really enjoyed the different options. Great drinks!

New tea chain that opened up in this busy San Gabriel plaza. Open late night which is great for hanging out. Indoor and outdoor seating. Refreshing drinks. Nice service and even gave my dog whipped cream on the side! The mango chili uses real mango for that sweet natural mango flavor. The ceylon cha latte comes with a thick whip cream and nuts on it. Tea was good. Would come back if I'm craving a late night drink. They also have ice cream and pastries here!

Visited Cha Redefine with my lovely wife during their grand opening and it's just like the other locations I've been to. They're pretty big and have plenty of tables around. The cafe is very clean and big, free parking in a large parking lot as well. They share same plaza with two other boba shops and are close to popular restaurants as well, perfect spot to get some drinks after a meal. My go to drinks here are the matcha tornado and the Osmanthus drinks as well. All are refreshing to drink especially on a warmer day. This spot doesn't seem like a spot to hangout with friends as they don't have big tables. More of a grab and go type cafe. CRF is known for their higher quality drinks so I'm very happy to have another boba spot added to an already packed SGV.

Of course I had to visit the newest Cha Redefine location. This location is pretty much the same as the one in Arcadia. The shop has a clean, minimalist aesthetic. There is minimal seating inside, so it seems better for a grab-and-go experience rather than hanging out for a while. The menu has many creative drinks and a decent variety of drinks to choose from. I really like the chappuccino and cha latte drinks, whereas my husband really likes the ceremonial matcha grade drinks. Their drinks do lean towards the sweeter end though, so I prefer to get half sweetness here. Although there is no self-order kiosk, they do have online ordering through Toast and a loyalty program. The store opens until 1 am everyday, making it the perfect boba spot for late-night visits. Plenty of parking, including underground level parking, is available in the shared plaza.

Came here around 11pm and line was packed!! Who knew there was 50% off drinks late night Mango Mango: 8/10, good refreshing summer drink Super crowded inside but there's a cute photobooth! Good amount of seating to chit chat while waiting for drinks.
