I have NEVER had bad service in this store. And I visit it frequently. The product lines are superior and lovely. The owner is very pleasant--always.

In the past, I purchased many other products from this business. However, the service has never been good, but it has steadily become worse.

They have such a large selection of teas! I was drawn in by the cozy space and the nice design but…read morethen pleasantly surprised to discover that it is a tea shop instead of a cafe. It seems harder to find these cute tea shops and I definitely appreciate the variety that they serve here. The shop was very empty when I visited midday on a Friday but the seating and music was so nice especially with the natural light and rain and busy streets outside. Service was very friendly and fast. I ordered a pistachio danish and an iced mango mist black tea and both were delicious and reasonably priced (surprisingly). Had a great time and will be back :)

I came here on a weekday afternoon and was disappointed by the level of service despite being the…read moreonly one waiting in line. I ended up deciding on an iced tea and found that the drink wasn't cold enough with it not having enough flavour. Furthermore, I though the bathrooms were not kept very clean. They did have a few spots open for seating which is nice if getting together with friends.

Was in the area for a different restaurant and decided to stop by for a post-meal matcha. The…read moreinterior is really aesthetic and they have their own merch and matcha powder as well to buy. We ordered two drinks to go (and I actually came back again another time). Got the Rose matcha (limited time menu) and the rose taste was quite strong, but you can still taste the matcha. Also got just the regular matcha and it was pretty strong in flavour too. Went back a different time and got the performance blend matcha, which tastes a little like cinnamon and has a grittier taste. Don't mind it but I prefer the syrup-y flavoured matchas more. The price isn't that cheap but honestly on par with the going rate for cafe drinks nowadays, which is basically close to $8/9 a drink......is nice for a splurge but wouldn't get it all the time. Too pricey. Worth a try if you're in the area though!

I kept seeing this place every time I walked by the area, but never walked in to try it. I'm glad I…read morefinally gave it a chance! It's got very clean, trendy, and modern vibes in there and since it was the holidays, there was cute Christmas decor in there as well. They have various types of matcha and hojicha drinks and I like that they have two styles of making the drinks. LA (less matcha, sweeter) and Tokyo (less sweet, stronger matcha). I ordered the Mango Matcha and I really liked the mango purée used as it was not too sweet, but fruity and flavourful. The matcha flavour is also strong and fragrant. The super matcha I found interesting as it contained their house made sweetener. I could not put a name to the flavour of sweetness until I read another review and realized it was cinnamon! Needless to say, I did not prefer the cinnamon and liked the mango much more. I have to return next time to buy their 1g measuring spoon!

This is where I come for new collection nail polish. They have every possible shade of OPI available! The collections are so quick to update that I can always find the newest collections of OPI there (in stores) before anywhere else. They carry new collections in all the other brands too. Pretty much if you can't find the nail polish/product you want at your local drug store, you can almost definitely find it here! Buy more, and the price comes down per bottle. It starts off at just under $10. With each extra bottle you buy, the price comes down by a $1 per bottle! It's a pretty sweet deal for a nail polish addict - me!!! The staff... I never want to talk to them because they can be so pushy. Although I have no problem saying no, they are relentless! The trick is to tell them you already know what you want. I still browse the shop sometimes out of curiosity. The rest of the stuff are pretty pricey, so I don't buy anything from them, except nail polish!

I never knew there was a Shifeon on Robson until they moved to this bigger location. I agree that…read morethe sales in the store do follow you around but when I told them upfront "I'm just browsing" they were pretty chill with it and backed off. After looking around and I wanted some assistance, I turned around trying to catch someone, I got eye contact right away which was nice (she was standing pretty far too). I don't like pushy sales bc it turns me off and I leave the store but knowing that someone acknowledges my presence w/o feeling pressured to purchase is a gold star. I was looking for something to lighten up my break out marks and the sales, Mandy, recommended me this serum from Green Envee (1st time) and Guinot (2nd time). Both worked like a charm and I how they have lots of different products and brands! Plus a bonus Sanrio corner (my favourite)!! Whether if I make a small purchase, big purchase or even no purchase at all, they gave me lots of free samples to try out! I literally got a routine set sample for both my mom and I w/o dropping a penny down one time! What more can I ask for? Another reason why I return to this store is their buy $50 get $10 coupon (for the following quarter mths). Its a way to do business keeping ur customers but if the prices are the same for some of the brands you can find elsewhere ie. The Bay, Sephora, Murale, etc. why not get it here when u can get a $10 coupon for future purchase, gift with purchase (depending on which brands) and lots of free samples? The Bay offers 10% cosmetics and fragrances from time to time only and gift with purchases (certain times for each brands), Sephora offers points... no gift with purchase and sometimes 10-15% off Sephora days and no samples or rarely... Murale offers optimum points - that's it!
