There is a dissembling nature about the store front of Chai Master. The parking lot is small and…read morebusy, and the plaza itself seems a bit rundown. Being on the corner of a busy intersection doesn't help you feel more comfortable entering or entering this little lot, either. However, upon entry, you'll find a clean, welcoming, and lovely store, full of small tables with little tap lamps on them, nice lighting, and relaxing vibes. I can see this being a popular hanging, studying, or gaming spot! They have some intense pastries on display by the counter! Even my wife's sweet tooth was shy. It would probably be best to share these with a group! We had two drinks from the menu, and we enjoyed the mango matcha. Whatever was on the bottom of the cup was challenging to mix in with the rest of the drink, and it was thick! However, after a few minutes, the drink mellows out and is actually delicious! We do not recommend the apple tea. It tasted like water with a hint of some flavouring. Not worth the cost. Chai Master can be hit or miss, depending on what you order. However, I can see us returning with a group for pastries and card games!

It's nutty, creamy, and quite strong honestly. I'm not usually a mango person, but I really enjoyed their mango matcha latte. I love that all their drinks that have fruit in them use real fruit puree that they make in-house! And don't leave without grabbing one of their pastries! If you love a good soft cookie, definitely get the smores bar or chewy Biscoff mallow cookie. Thanks for reading! ^-^

There isn't much seating in the shop so can get crowded during peak times. Ordered the following: Biscoff Latte Matcha Einspanner Strawberry Matcha Latte Lemon Bar Mallow Cookies I personally really liked both the matcha einspanner and the biscoff latte. You can taste the coffee plus that slightly sweetness from the biscoff. Also loved their pastries, really liked the lemon bar and mallow cookies! Overall, Haru Cafe is such a cute spot when you are in a mood for a variety of drinks plus something sweet. Definitely would love to come by again.

From taking my order to getting my drink, service was fast. Plenty of seating and outdoor parking available-- perfect for studying or doing work. I've gone to this location several times for matcha and decided to try one of their fall seasonal specials this time-- a carrot cake latte with cream cheese cream top. I'm so glad that the barista recommended this drink because it was the literal definition of fall. The latte had a great subtle taste of carrot cake with a hint of a spices. I like how the sweetness wasn't too overwhelming with the perfect balance of espresso. I also got the ube cookie with a white chocolate pretzel on top of it-- it had a soft texture and a subtle taste of ube. I've also tried their oreo mallow cookie before and it was good too. Overall, aesthetic and tasty, would recommend!

I'm Vietnamese and shared it with my Vietnamese mom, which made it especially nice to bring her a little taste of her home country. The shop has cute, simple decor, and the husband-and-wife owners were incredibly warm and friendly. I really enjoyed chatting with them and learning about their shop.
