Of their drinks on the menu, white champaca, white champaca oolong, dancong, white champaca matcha are the top drinks I cycle through. Although they recommend 70%, I actually prefer 30% sweetness, less ice. Truly brings out the tea flavor. This location had a new drink Camellia during the LNY. However, I have not seen it on the menu since March. Hopefully they'll bring it back. They now have order online via their website (chowbus), and I recently learned that they have an app. This makes ordering drinks at this location easy since it is located in corner strip mall with minimal parking.

Vibes: 10/10 it's clean and pretty cute inside. The music is obv Viet music, but I'm Viet so... Service: 10/10 the cashiers were nice and attentive. I was greeted as I walked in and as I left. And they were more than happy to help me answer any questions I had. Food: 10/10 I got the Ha Long Sunset without the lychee jelly for $10. I only got one drink this time unfortunately. Trying to cut down on my sugar intake :(((. But it's SO DAMN GOOD. The coconut milk is just the right amount of sweet and taste awesome. The toppings inside are so fun to eat, and you have the option to remove any topping you might not like. Overall: 10/10 The service is great, the inside is clean (bathroom included), and it's the perfect place for Chè. No more needing to crave for the chè in SoCal :3

If you're…read morelooking for high-quality matcha and delicious einspanners, this place is absolutely worth the drive. // Banana pudding matcha einspanner My go-to. The banana pudding tastes fresh and natural without being overpowering or overly sweet. The cookie crumble adds the perfect bit of texture and ties everything together. It's one of those drinks I keep craving. // Sunny Side Up Matcha Einspanner I genuinely thought they had cracked a real egg on top at first (oopsies). It's actually mango syrup, which is super creative. The mango is definitely on the sweeter side, so I like letting the ice melt just a little before drinking- it balances everything out really nicely. // Hojicha If you're a hojicha fan, you can't go wrong with any of their hojicha drinks. They have a deep, roasted flavor that's incredibly satisfying. My personal favorite is the Osmanthus Hojicha Einspanner because the floral osmanthus pairs beautifully with the nutty hojicha. Beyond the drinks, I also appreciate that the quality is consistently excellent. It's one of the few places where you can really taste the quality of the matcha. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

The line was long due to the weekend, but went by fairly quickly given you order on a touch screen. I had some questions and was able to grab someone making drinks to quickly answer them. There was a a strawberry matcha with strawberry foam on the counter for pick up that looked insane but there was no way to sub out the dairy in the foam (crying in allergies) so I got the oat milk strawberry matcha. It was a little watery and the strawberries were a tad syrupy but overall had great flavor. Easy to order and tables always open up to wait for your drink. Probably not a great place to plan to hang out with your drink through given it's a tad small inside and crowded! Excited to come back and try more drinks!

I've been to Haiku a few times now. I live really close, and it's only about a five minute drive,…read morebut it didn't really catch my attention at first. Usually, it isn't too crowded when I visit, so finding a table is easy. There also isn't much interaction with the baristas since orders are placed through the kiosk. I've tried serval drinks, including the banana matcha, cookie butter matcha, and corn einspannar. When I first tried the matcha, I thought it was just okay, it tasted pretty bland. The corn einspannar was definitely the standout at the time, although I got tired of the flavor after a few sips. I'm a huge fan of anything cookie butter, so I'm always looking for places that do it well. I decided to try the cookie butter hojicha, and it was amazing. The hojicha here is a 10/10! Later, I tried the cookie butter latte, and it was just as good. The cookie butter and coffee pair so well together. The main reasons I keep coming back is their cookie butter and hojicha. If they ever take the cookie butter off the menu, I'll be sad

I'm not from the area, and I will happily say that when I come to town, I will give this spot a visit. I've been here twice now, and the cookie butter matcha really stands out. It's a delicious and truly perfected drink. I haven't tried a combination like it before. I lovee the concentrated, earthy, and a hint of bitter matcha bottom paired with the sweet, creamy cookie butter cream top. They go together so well. The other two drinks I've tried are the Guava Jasmine tea and the Mount Everest Black Tea with Salted Cheese. Of these two, I liked the black tea more. The black tea was strong, and the Salted Cheese topping was a nice, thick consistency and a good balance of saltiness, sweetness, and cheese taste. I would probably not order the Guava Jasmine tea again. I was looking on this Yelp page for which drinks to order, and I was sad to find out that they don't offer their White Peach Oolong tea anymore, but Haiku has an easy-to-access website to order from in advance, so shoutout to that. I'm curious about the Corn Einspanner, so maybe I'll give it a try the next time I come back.

I will say that the drinks are on the pricier side; everything her ranges from 6 to 8 dollars, even for the smaller-sizd drinks. This spot is a bit small, but it is well-lit and comfortable to sit in. It's clean and stylish inside, and orders are primarily taken through a standing tablet. It's relatively easy to find parking, even though the lot is somewhat busy, especially right after work. The drinks come out pretty quickly and taste really good, though even their "less sweet" options tend to err on the side of being too sweet. I am usually a bit suspect of matcha or hojicha served by places that mostly serve other boba drinks, but I have tried both the matcha and hojicha here, and I liked both. They don't serve food or snacks, which I don't mind! I would absolutely recommend this spot to others; it's a nice experience and their drinks (at least the ones I've tried) are solid.

My go-to order is the Strawberry Matcha with whole milk, less ice, less sweetness, and honey boba. The matcha has a rich, flavorful taste that pairs perfectly with the strawberry puree. The strawberry flavor is fresh and not overly sweet, creating a well-balanced drink that doesn't overpower the matcha. The honey boba adds just the right amount of sweetness and texture, making it my favorite combination. One of the best things about this shop is how fast the service is. Even when ordering in person, I'm usually able to get my drink and be on my way within minutes. The efficiency makes it an easy stop when I'm craving a quick drink. The interior is also a highlight. There's plenty of seating available for anyone looking to study, work, or simply catch up with friends. The space feels welcoming and cozy, with a cute aesthetic that makes it enjoyable to spend time in. Overall, this is a great boba shop with quality drinks, fast service, and a comfortable atmosphere. If you're a matcha lover, I would definitely recommend trying the Strawberry Matcha.

Perfect place to sit and yapp where it's not overwhelming. It was a vibe in there and it's super clean as well. We easily ordered on the kiosk. There were so many great options to choose from. I ordered the double matcha and my friend got the hojicha. The drinks came out in 5 minutes. The double matcha was so good. Just the right creaminess and sweetness (I got regular sugar). Definitely coming back :)

Temperatures were…read morejust under 90 degrees Fahrenheit outside, so I was in the market for a place where I could get a refreshing drink that had decent WiFi and good air conditioning. It was a Wednesday and Devin and I were looking to make it a productive work day. We stopped by later in the afternoon. There is ample seating but most of the booths were occupied when we arrived so we sat at a table. Club music was being played loudly so working here would not be ideal if you have to present in meetings. The tropical paradise fruit tea would've been better with a topping or two, but in an attempt to cut down on calories consumed I've began getting drinks without toppings. Unfortunately fruit tea without toppings is just not the same, but this was totally my choice and on me. The WiFi worked well. There are some outlets under the booths but none at the tables. I've been to other Rose Tea Lounge locations and I'd say that this one is definitely more club-like than others. Not the ideal place to work remotely by any means, but that's not to say that the drinks are bad or ambiance is poor. If you're looking to chat and catch up with friends, this spot would be a good choice.
