The tea drinks honestly aren't bad here. It's the terrible customer service every time with some of…read morethese boba businesses. I ordered an $8-9 coffee milk tea with creme brûlée and oreo. It's my first time there and I missed the large option which is my mistake. Got like a small 12-16 oz cup. I asked if I could pay to get it as a large drink and the manager couldn't comprehend that all she had to do was void the transaction and I'd ring up the new drink and tip the baristas for the inconvenience. I'm not trying to make a service worker feel bad but it's on management to not be so stingy on just helping a customer. For $8-9 it did not feel worth the money and genuinely the customer service with some of these Asian boba shops are atrocious compared to the ones in Richmond like even Tsaocaa or Zen Cafe or in Nova like Teas N You I've been to owned by competent owners and workers that aren't incompetent. Edit: I've also worked in a boba restaurant before so I know how management can be and it's just poor business practice to screw over your customers.

Take your "tyme" and relax at this sweet tearoom! It's cute, but not as prim as some other tearoom…read moreI've been to. There are plastic covers on the chairs, which is practical yes, but takes away from the formality of a tearoom. A couple of the tables were wobbly, and I think they could use one or two smaller tables for twosomes and threesomes. The paper napkins were wrapped the utensils with a cute ribbon which was a nice touch for paper napkins. The main drawback: There was literally a little waste receptacle ON the table! Definitely not appropriate. There's a sort of creepy yet quirky robot that greets you at the front door. It evidently speaks different languages. She's cute though! Her name is Rose. The Victorian afternoon tea was nice, you know okay. I had the cucumber sandwiches (and added chicken salad sandwich for an upcharge) and the tea for $16.95 came with a mini cupcake, a mini scone and a mini cookie. The cuke sandwich was lightly toasted and fresh, the chix salad was on wheat and too mayonnaise-y for my taste. The sweets were delicious. You can choose your sandwich from several options, and your flavor of scone. Today the had raspberry white chocolate, orange cranberry, and blueberry. The Earl Grey cream tea was hot and fresh. Nicely steeped! The teapot and the tea accoutrements were all pretty! The server, Jamie, was sweet and helpful. The shop was also filled to the brim with gifts: jewelry, tea things, figurines, ornaments, candles, soaps and other knickknacks. While I was there the tearoom filled up quickly! Families and guys enjoyed their tea times. However, the ladies behind me were quite loud and rude playing videos loudly of their kids doing "cute" things. So gauche! So uncouth! Not tearoom manners at all! I wanted to take their phones! Ugh! Several customers walked in and ordered from the counter with a large selection of smoothies, boba tea, bubble tea, chai teas, milk teas, coffees, and milkshaplus a huge selection of regular teas: black, herbal, green and white teas. I'd come back, but don't expect the typical English tea experience. It's a bit more low key and casual. Unless you have a large party, you can just walk in without a reservation. I did come back! It was nice that on a Friday, they were open late and we were able to grab a bite! Service was slow on this day because I think only one person was minding the store! I chose the Buckingham Palace tea this time!!

I will admit I am not the biggest fan of Pho as I don't eat beef and have been disappointed in the past by most non-beef Pho options. However, this place has great reviews so I wanted to check it out. One thing about me, even if I don't like something, I will always keep giving it another shot! I'm so glad I did because the moment we walked in, I could tell this place would be good. It smelled incredible in there! Also this place was packed, and more and more people kept coming in within the hour of them being closed. You can definitely tell that this is a local favorite, especially for JMU students. I got the seafood pho and was blown away! It was so flavorful and actually tasted phenomenal. I ate every bit of it. In the past I've found Pho to be bland, but not this one! I added a ton of condiments and such to it which made it even better. My husband got a weekend special, I believe it was a pork chop plate and he really enjoyed his dish as well.

Trying to find something that could have a non dairy option, oat milk to be precise, was a SITUATION. I asked the poor girl behind the counter so many questions, but she answered them all. Not with enough detail, for my liking, but she answered them nonetheless. Will I go out of my way to get another $11 beverage? Absolutely not. But if I also wanted lunch or a treat, then yes give them a try for yourself!

When I tried to put my straw in it got stuck because there was too much ice. You order on the device. There was no option to adjust sweetness or ice levels but some of the drinks sweetness can be adjusted after asking staff I just verbally asked for the adjustment. Overall good experience. They have some street food too. I thought the rolls were a bit overpriced at $10 for 3 but they looked good in the photo!

I ordered from a kiosk but you can order in person as well. I ended up getting the mango pomelo drink and added cheese foam. The cheese foam is pretty good, but maybe a little sweeter than I would like. It didn't necessarily add anything to this drink in my opinion so I would probably leave it off next time. I had never had sago before. I think it was not bad but I prefer something with more texture like boba. The slush part was really good and had a slight coconut flavor which was nice, and it tasted very fresh. While I liked the drink, if I could I would get that slush with boba instead of sago. I think it could be that I just don't love sago that much, not that the sago is necessarily bad here. But I would need to try more sago from other places to make that determination. I think I would come back here again.

Not sure if the ice melted from the temperature or if they didn't put enough ice. The milk tea had to get returned but they said they couldn't replace it with a fruit tea so they remade it, but it still wasn't great. Eric ordered the mango fruit tea which was refreshing and delicious. Overall, service was alright. They were helpful enough to attempt to make remake it, but I think the milk tea there just isn't great in my personal opinion. I ended up not drinking the milk tea and throwing it out. The interior was nice, plenty of seating, clean, and a casual spot. Drinks came out fairly quick, but it was fairly empty.
