Efficient little stand in the middle of Westfield mall! Seems like the only boba shop in this area…read more I knew I couldn't go wrong cause we have this in the states. Really interested that the hot drinks came in similar to Ho cups :)) I got the premium milk tea with 50% sugar and it was perfect !

Chatime is the perfect treat for anytime you think you have earned a nice sweet treat which lets be…read morehonest could be almost anytime. The options are almost unlimited with flavours like banana, taro, blueberry, chocolate and even an option for hot teas now. The drinks all come with the option for additional toppings such as pearls, coconut jelly, rainbow jelly and many more available to. The drinks don't take very long to make and they are vacuumed sealed so makes it perfect for when you want them to go. This occasion I decided to order a pearl milk tea with the rainbow jelly. It was all going great until I dropped it on the floor and that was the end of that little treat. The staff were friendly in this store. It's set up like a kiosk near the entrance to Westfield and I wasn't waiting around long to get my drink.

Good lil drink chain offering an assortment of refreshments including milk and standard iced teas…read more Had the lychee green tea w coconut jelly, no sugar (although it was oddly sweet). Quick n refreshing and just as costly as running out to a SB ($4-6 depending on what you get) so might as well come here and try out something a lil diff on those hot days that simply demand a chilly drink. Cute name.. 'Cha' means tea in viet; athough, i don't think this joint is owned by viet ppl :P

Easyway or Chatime? Now that is the question. I'm in favour of the latter purely because when I…read moreorder a milk tea I actually want to taste the tea not sugar. Someone once told me the approximate amount of sugar in Easyway and its was something ridiculous. I'm sure Chatime has a tonne of sugar in it too, but it just tastes less sweet. Pearl milk or bubble teas are the most popular (I like mine vanilla or roasted milk flavoured) but a friend of mine swears by the fruit tea. You can control the sweetness and ice level. Normal sweetness and 1/4 ice is my order. So if you've never tasted a Taiwanese drink before, Chatime is a great place to start. Be adventurous (unlike me)!

Boba! We love boba so had to try it out when we passed…read more SERVICE - The girls behind the register were nice. They answered all of our questions regarding their boba and were very patient. DRINK Jasmine Milk Green Tea - The tea itself was very creamy which we enjoyed. Reminded us of ShareTea. The boba was soft and chewy so we liked this place! Solid boba spot.

I think there are more bubble (boba) tea shops in Sydney than there are McDonald's in the world!…read moreYou can't avoid it. It's the plague! So either you're with it or against it. I plead Switzerland since I enjoy a bubble tea from time to time, but it's an expensive habit.. like crack! However, in the nation of Market City, there are only two (2) "real" bubble tea shops (there are restaurants that sell bubble tea). This is the better of the two. My lovely boss has treated me out for bubble tea every other day, so I've had the privilege of trying teas from both Easy Way and Cha Time. Cha Time surpasses Easy Way by a long shot. The Oolong Milk Tea w/pearls I drank this morning was absolutely divine. It was the perfect balance of milk, tea, pearls and ice. Easily 5 stars for taste and I'll definitely give it the place another 5 stars for decor. The countertop and displays were in pristine condition. But I had to knock off a star for price. Easy Way offers MC employees a discount while Cha Time doesn't... Hook your fellow MC tenants up w/a discount and I'll change my review to 5 stars :)

This is a franchise that I've seen in quite a few places in US…read more Unfortunately, this has been the worst. Had a large taro with boba and large melon with boba. Total was $14.40 for both.

This was hands down our favorite place for boba in Sydney. Their hours were limited, but the…read morequality was there. We've had a lot of boba all of the SF Bay Area, but their "regular" boba was the absolute best we've ever had. Texture was consistent throughout, perfect chewiness, great flavor. Their drinks were all very well flavored, perfect level of ice, and not too sweet. I would say they are about a 25% - 50% level of sweetness compared to the drinks in the US at most places. They have milk tea, blended smoothy style, fruit drinks, and sparking / carbonated drinks. Their menu selection isn't huge, but they have a solid selection, and you can really taste the quality throughout all their drinks.

We LOVEEEEEE Machi Machi, especially the Creme Brulee black milk tea! Sooooo creamy!…read moreMake sure to open the lid to enjoy the creme brulee first, then give it a swirl with your straw and enjoy the SUPER creamy milky tea, with bites of boba too. YUMMMMM. This location is conveniently located in the highly populated china town and George St too. Heard that Jay Chou founded this boba tea chain, so I wasn't surprised to hear 100% of his songs being played in store lol. Ye qu.

The following day, we went back and got the tea latte with taro ball and the honey osmanthus oolong tea. We loved both drinks but we like the oolong tea a bit more. We've been lucky that both times that we went there, there was barely a line so we didn't have to wait too long. Ordering at the kiosk is pretty simple and easy. It's also cool to watch the staff brew the tea in front of us. The space is pretty chill. They have a few seats where you can just hang out, but obviously, during busy times you might not get a seat so you'll have to enjoy your drink elsewhere.

This was our favorite boba tea when we stayed in Kuala Lumpur last year. This location added an…read moreordering kiosk so that facilitated the line. Charges were based on the drink type, flavor and toppings. Customization was for sugar and ice levels. However as each cup is made to order it took about 10 minutes before our drinks were ready. Luckily this location was quite big with lots of room and some tables to wait, socialize or enjoy drinking. The dong ding oolotea was as good as we remembered. Just the right amount of sweetness and tea flavoring. It also came with a handy twine and cardboard carrying sleeve for to go. We also noticed insulated bags, nice looking ones, were provided on larger online orders to go. That was a nice touch.

It has been quite a few years since I have been here, so this review is really for the last time I…read morevisited which was back in 2012 or 2013 (maybe??) I was just excited to see a Chatime here as I hadn't since I was in Singapore. Honestly, the boba here is pretty standard and nothing to write home about. The boba was fresh at least but the drinks at the time weren't anything out of the ordinary. I was just excited to see boba in Aus!

Taro was disgusting, with bobas that were too firm in the middle. Threw it out after the first few…read moresips to make sure it wasn't fluke. Got another milk tea as well. I had a few bobas that weren't overly firm in the middle but most of them had the same issue. The tea itself is tasty but I have tea at home. Earl gray I had yesterday was good. Unfortunately again shitty bobas texture wise, which ruins the experience. They ran out of Earl gray when I came back again today, so I suppose if you're going to try anything try the Earl gray. Consider some jellies as their bobas are consistently low quality and firm in the center. I've had six (bad boba batches) the past week and five in the past few days at different times and locations, so I don't think I can give Chatime anymore chances (with bobas at least, I have an addiction to feed so I'll probably try some of the jellies).
