    Iced Matcha Latte (supposedly)

    The service was fine, we came to get my daughter an iced matcha latte before her long day at school. I waited in the car while my daughter went to order her drink. She came back with what looked like milk so I asked her what she got and she said a matcha latte. I had to check the bottom of the cup...saw a small amount of settled matcha at the bottom. Since we were in a rush to get to school on time, we left. I did take a sip and it tasted exactly the way it looked. It was basically sweetened milk.

    I'd like to give Panache 5 stars because the drinks were delicious and beautifully presented, but the scones were a disappointment. We paid for two and they were tiny and thrown on a plate. Maybe they should've just put them on the side of the cup? Otherwise, convenient place to get coffee if you're in Lafayette, plenty of seating. Didn't try the Wi-Fi but others seemed to be working

    Came here with my good friend because we were craving Milk Tea and she lives in Orinda, so this was the closest spot we could find! It's a quaint mom & pop shop right on the outskirts of downtown Lafayette. They have mostly drinks with some assorted pastries, and I do wish they had more food items on their menu. The space is quiet and peaceful! I thought the decor was comforting, and no overly loud music or chatter. I would definitely come in to do some work the next time I'm in the area! Parking is mainly street metered parking, and there is a plaza nearby where I am sure you could park as well if street parking was limited.

    The fam and I have been going to Likikoi since they've opened, mostly for convenience purposes…read more Started out amazing, but as we ordered more and more, there's been quite a bit of inconsistency. Will we get good or mediocre drinks today? Will our drinks be accurate or would we need to spend some more time to get our drinks fixed? Always a gamble, but hey, I do love to gamble (usually in a different setting lol). Sometimes the drinks are really good. The ones I've had the most consistencies are their house milk tea and their tropical fruit tea. Recommendation is to order everything as-is since if things (such as sugar level) are adjusted, it's most likely watered down. Luckily the drinks aren't way too sweet, but still a bit sweeter than I'd like, and I'd prefer a bit more tea flavor. My daughter has been big on their Thai tea, but after some inconsistencies with flavor, she's switched to their matcha horchata drink. Pretty good, and they have other kinds of drinks like that too. My son likes the house milk tea with lychee jelly, and the husband enjoys the Oreo drinks here, but they don't taste right in my opinion. I like their house milk tea, jasmine milk tea, tropical fruit tea, and once a while, their ube taro drink. On the safe side, I normally stick with tropical tea and house milk tea at this location. Props to Lilikoi for having some "unique" drinks such as mango almighty (mango smoothie with tajin and chamoy), various horchata drinks, and more. They seem to specialize more in the tropical fruit teas, so highly recommend for those.

Since I went close to when they first opened, I thought they would get the kinks worked out so I wanted to try again before I judged. I came today (2/4/2025) after a doctor's appointment. I noticed they have ube coffee on the menu. Unfortunately, the employees told me they were out of ube. I ordered the Thai milk tea with no ice at 50% sweet. Given the heavy rain and cold weather, I asked if they could make the drink hot and they said they don't do hot drinks. Really? Every boba spot I've been to in the 4.5 years I've lived in Contra Costa County - including Sharetea, Mr. Green Bubble, Teaspoon, and Yi Fang - offer hot drinks. Everywhere EXCEPT Lilikoi. As for the drink itself, I could taste the Thai tea flavor somewhat but it seemed a bit watered down. I've had better Thai milk tea elsewhere. The drink cost $5, which is less compared to other boba spots. But I'd rather pay a bit more for drinks that don't tasted watered down. I don't think I'll return, even if in the area.

They offer a wide selection of drinks, from classics like brown sugar milk boba, to fruity flavors. It's true that if you ask for light ice, you still get a whole bunch of ice. The regular sweetness is pretty sweet, so you probably want to choose a less sweet option (there are 3 lower sugar choices). Staff are there to produce the product, not to be friendly, it seems. One big surprise: they offer a few things to eat, among which is a very good bubble waffle. I've tried many of these throughout the Bay area, and none have been any good, often bad texture or taste. I've specifically gone to highly recommended bubble waffle specialty vendors in HK, which are definitely good, and those are my reference.

I added sago for texture and it did give it a nice profile overall. The 4 pieces of lychee also gave it added sweetness to my drink. It was chilled nicely and overall, it did brighten up my mood for the day. I think I need to go to 30% sweet and it will be perfect for me. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again.

In the past, before my order was placed, I would ask for a lower sugar level (for example, 20% or 25% sugar). The staff would always accommodate my request. I was even told before that the kiosk doesn't have an option to select custom sugar percentages, so they could adjust it manually. This time, when I placed my order and politely asked about the sugar level, the employee told me that they could no longer make any changes unless the option was available on the kiosk. If the sugar level option was there, I could select it myself, but if it wasn't available, they said they couldn't adjust it manually anymore. What made the experience worse was the employee's attitude. When I said hello, it felt like she barely wanted to respond. Maybe she was tired or having a long day, but the interaction came across as very unfriendly and unwelcoming. On top of that, the boba was not cooked properly. The center of the pearls was hard and undercooked instead of soft and chewy, so I didn't enjoy my drink at all. Honestly, I'm writing this review mainly because of the customer service. The attitude was extremely poor, and combined with the undercooked boba, it left a very negative impression. After being a loyal customer for years, I don't think I'll be coming back for boba again.
