I Heart Boba is a place I've seen very often in Uber Eats, although I had never been. A few weeks…read moreago, I finally went after dinner with my boyfriend. We always do a bubble tea run after dinner, and since the sun was setting and this was in the same plaza as the place we ate at, we decided to go. It's a tiny little shop that's easy to miss. There's no seating as far as I saw and the waiting area is quite narrow. This is more of a grab and go place. The employees were quick and helpful, and we got our orders fast. I had the coconut cream tea. It was decent, but the coconut taste wasn't super present and the drink had a powdery artificial taste to it. My boyfriend got the watermelon slushie which I thought was much better. It tasted exactly like fresh watermelon. He ordered it with no sugar, which was good since the drink had natural sweetness. Overall, I would go back again, but I'd maybe try something different. I'd give this place 3.5 stars.

The tea flavor is quite strong which is nice. Perhaps they do use cream instead of milk since it is less diluted/milky than usual. Tasty and hit the spot. Reasonable prices.

This was actually my first time visiting any Palgong Tea but after a recommendation from a friend, I couldn't keep putting off visiting this store because I was already somewhat in the area :D When I walked in, one of the workers was hard at work taking promo shots for new drinks that were incoming. (he ended up giving us a few of the drinks to take with us to try but shhhhh) A different worker helped us during our visit to the store and she was extremely friendly! I ended up getting my standard drink of -[OOLONG MILK TEA] in large $4.49 with the least amount of ice and sugar possible! I usually always go for this flavor of milk tea because Oolong is one of my favorite flavors of tea to drink. This is usually how I establish a baseline to see whether or not I'll be back to try some more adventurous drinks! If you're wondering, I'll definitely be back and I have my eyes on a couple of drinks already.... -[TIRAMISU MILK TEA] *seasonal* I guess I have to go back REALLY soon or else this drink may evade me forever D: -[STRAWBERRY EARL GREY MILK TEA] This sounds like it could very well be up my alley because I love earl grey and the flavor of strawberry! I honestly don't see how this combination of flavors could go wrong so I guess I'll have to try either this or the tiramisu one on my next visit! Give this place a try because I heard their cheese foam pairs really well with their Oolong Milk tea! (I still have to try this combination to verify it but I trust the friend who told me this haha)

Super cute new bubble tea shop at Yonge and Steeles area! Randomly found this place looking for a…read moreplace to go to for a late night bbt run and was pleasantly surprised. Inside has a lot of seating options and the decor is modern. They also have free wifi (pw: 80808080). The staff are very friendly and helpful when deciding which drink to get. We got the mango black tea with milk foam and mango smoothie with pineapple jelly. The mango black tea was so good! It is now one of my favourites. You can taste the mango pulp in the drink, and the milk foam is a nice touch. The mango smoothie was average, nothing outstanding. However, the pineapple jelly was different and went well with the smoothie. A bonus is that their prices are not as expensive as the big chains here like Coco, Chatime, etc. Great place for good and reasonably priced bubble tea. Would recommend you give it a try!

The interior feels overly bright and a bit plain, almost more like a workshop than a cozy bubble tea shop, so the atmosphere lacks much vibe. It's more of a simple takeout place rather than somewhere you'd want to sit and relax. On the positive side, it is open quite late into the night.

I like the Brown Sugar Bubble tea so much, and my husband likes the Honeydew Jasmine tea. Both hitting our favorites. There were only two staff working there only. People were lining up, but I could tell they both work as fast as they could. Since I had waited for a while and 3 numbers after me had picked up her drinks, something off the hook. I asked the cashier then she told me they ran out of the Jasmine tea and it should be ready in 5 mins. Fine! Short staffed.

I completely understand that, with one person working, things get overwhelming easily. When we arrived we just wanted to grab our mobile order, but there was zero eye contact, zero acknowledgement. Because of the time it took to collect our order, which was sitting out, the ice had melted a lot and watered down the flavor. This is not the fault of the overworked staff member. The responsibility falls on the company to not understaff on a summer weekend!

I stopped by for a bubble tea and honestly, it was amazing. The flavour was perfect, not overly sweet, and the pearls were that ideal soft-but-chewy texture that's actually hard to get right. I took one sip and literally went, "Okay, this is my new spot." You can tell everything is made with care, and the whole vibe of the shop is cozy and relaxed. My friend and I ended up hanging out longer than planned just because it felt so comfortable there. I genuinely enjoyed my bubble tea so much, and I'll definitely be coming back to try more flavours.

For the Strawberry, it was nice with real strawberries in the drink. For the Double Roasted Frosty, the taste was good but I recommend getting 50% sugar because it was quite sweet. They also offer catering. There is no free WiFi or washrooms. There are 7 stools, one round table and one counter. Most people would order for takeout.
