She also got the chocolate Hong Kong waffle with ice cream and enjoyed it. I would have liked to try some of their food, but wasn't able to during this visit (through no fault of Tsaocaa). The plushies and other merch they had was very cute and I'll very likely buy something the next time I visit. The decor was also lovely, with some very happy plants in the windows. The staff were also friendly and gave me no reason to doubt their skills. My only complaint is that the seating was just shy of being comfortable. My friend said the bench seating was a bit hard, and while the chair I sat in was soft, the arm rests made it a little too narrow for me (I'm plus size and have chronic pain, so finding truly comfortable seating can be a challenge at most places. As a note, anyone larger than a women's 3X probably wouldn't be able to comfortably sit in the chairs at all and would need to sit on the bench). Overall it was a pleasant experience, and I plan to go again!

It takes up most of the store and is easily bigger than the back counter area. Seemed a little out of place, but who am I to judge, i'm more mentioning it as it almost gave me pause. Wanting an after dinner treat I walked the few miles here and sitting in a strip mall I was expecting more cafe vibes rather than chuck e cheese. Granted there weren't any kids here, the rest of the decor was pretty appropriate to a boba cafe. Menu was large, clear. Prices were affordable (aside from the disproportionately high tax rate). Service was friendly and quick. Serving sizes were large, weren't overloaded with ice and foams. I was hoping to get offerings on sweetness levels as Boba places are notoriously sweet or even caffeine offering levels. I was hoping for the hokaido sugar milk tea, but went with the milk tea with the flan and boba which was a nice change of getting just boba added. I'll definitely be returning as it's the only boba place in walking distance.

The layout includes three spaces great for working, studying or just hanging out. There's a enclosed area too. They provide board games to enjoy. It reminds me of Cracker Barrel in a way.

Now coming to the menu if you're new and don't elect your goto drink type, is vast and you'll want to read it carefully as its extensive and the flavor combos unique. I was in the mood for Matcha, specifically Witch's Brew Matcha. I ordered it hot... thus the lemonade was steamed! How delightfully refreshing! Now my wallet... HAPPY. This was the most reasonable cup of Matcha I've ever had! My for stay ordered was served in a coffee cup. That's part of their decor too.. coffee cups as borders around the walls.

Whether you stop in for a latte, to browse comics, meet up with friends, or just enjoy the vibe, it's clear this place was built with heart. Small businesses are the backbone of our community. They bring character, connection, and local flavor to Olathe, and every time we choose to shop local, we help support someone's dream. Also, it was really cool to see that they support our local Olathe Public Schools by participating in the Adopt-a-School Program...looks like they've adopted Sunnyside Elementary. I know Heather Devocelle Schoonover was thrilled about this! Congratulations to Michael on FOUR years of serving Olathe with passion, creativity, and great coffee!
