    four different drinks on a table
    Hannah H.

    Get the Thai Tea ! I have been coming to both locations (maple) for years since opened, they offer such a wide variety of bubble tea-things. They have busting boba, regular boba, jelly boba, etc. Recently they've updated their Thai tea recipe and it's one of my favorites in the area!

    Large iced green tea with pomegranate kiwi flavor and bursting pomegranate boba
    Erin H.

    Today I stopped to get an iced tea to enjoy in the rare bit of warmth and sun. I got the iced green boba tea with kiwi and pomegranate flavoring with the pomegranate bursting boba. The tea is refreshing and sweet and just what I was looking for. Glad I stopped. Just a heads up- you need to order online!

    Mango passionfruit smoothie with extra bobaaaa!
    Susan N.

    I've been a TLC customer ever since I was a freshman in college. They have the best teas in the Buffalo area and their milk tea options are not too "milk-y." I've never been to this location, but decided to give it a try this past weekend when I went to Woodlawn Beach. You order via their website and grab your drink from their side door. The process was super easy. I ordered a mango passionfruit with extra bubbles and less sugar. Their smoothies come in their large size only. It's a little much for me, and I wish they had a regular size for smoothies. The less sugar option was perfect for me. My drink didn't feel watered down at all. I always get extra bubbles because they don't seem to give enough bubbles. It's not a big deal thought because it's only 25 cents extra versus other places that charge 50 cents for your first scoop. I also highly recommend their taro milk tea. That's also one of my faves! I love TLC and will always come back! They're my go to place here for BT.

    I saw this place construction but took me month and month before I decided to check it out after the opening. Better late than never lol. I was having major meltdown so I asked my bf to take me here just to get out of the house. I'm glad I did. They have a nice comfy couch. The decor is minimalist with artsy wall painting. We ordered milk tea Japanese matcha with tapioca pearl. So yummy... I definitely will comeback. They have many different options. And even as if not many people inside, they have stream of steady patron. I recommend this place just to chill and enjoy time.

    Bubble tea

    Always so good. I got the taro vanilla smoothie, with tapiocas of course! The service was fast and efficient.

    Was able to get my bubble tea

    Stuck on a mainly liquid diet after my surgery. Wanted some bubble tea. I had called, trying to place an order over the phone, but they don't accept orders over the phone. The staff kindly explained how I could order online before I got too bummed. And my boyfriend was able to fetch it for me. Drink tastes great! (As always) and thank you Tea Leaf Team for being sweet and patient and helpful today!!

    All the desserts offered
    Jennifer S.

    Love to come here and get boba tea! So many flavors and even delicious hot! We tried all the desserts too and they were equally as delicious! Staff is very helpful with recommendations and everything is ready very quickly. The ambiance is very cozy and peaceful too! Great place to relax and enjoy some tea!

    Guava passion fruit lychee jelly green tea
    Caitlin S.

    I ordered a green guava passion fruit tea with lychee jelly on the cafe's website. They're currently only accepting online orders and you have to pick them up at the side door. There is a shelf on the right side when you enter and that is where the orders sit. They are not accepting orders by phone or in the restaurant due to the current situation. I'm very pleased with my order. It's super refreshing for a hot summer day.

    Probably one of my new favorite places to hang out when I'm on a budget, I'm determined to try as much of the menu as I can! Customer service is excellent, they can answer any questions you might have or make suggestions if you are new to Bubble tea. A couch near a full bookshelf and several other seating set ups perfect for big groups, a date , or just relaxing solo. Also, two thumbs up for the music selection, I like the laid back alternative vibe. Bookmarked a couple other bubble tea establishments after I discovered this place, but Tea Leaf sets the bar awfully high with great service and product!

    I've been searching a long time for boba in buffalo and who knew it was in my backyard. Still cant sit in the cafe. So many choices of Flavors there's something to please everyone. You can mix up to three flavors so I got the banana coconut mango milk tea and I swear I'm in the tropics. Drink it up!

    Taro
    Joelle R.

    Anytime I have the opportunity to visit tea leaf, its a treat . I enjoy the milk , taro ,green bubble tea tea. Also, convenient online ordering to limit exposure is very nice.

    I'm so ridiculously excited to have a bubble tea place open in the Southtowns! Obviously being one of their first nights open, they had a long line with a little bit of a wait. But nothing crazy by any means. Their menu is well organized for people who didn't really know what to order, and they were very fast and efficient. They also have a punch card rewards program (such a plus for me) - buy 10 get 1 free! I'm so excited to explore their menu, and I can't wait until they really get into the swing of things.

    The cool table near where I was seated on a very comfortable loveseat.

The location makes sense as the residents of Williamsville are generally well-educated and worldly enough to appreciate authentic Yemeni cuisine; the same cannot be said for most of Buffalo suburbs, unfortunately, so I'm grateful the Buffalo metro now has one. Ordered the Qamaria latte, traditionally-spiced with cinnamon and cardamom. The spice notes were potent, but not at all overpowering and the beverage remained balanced. Had a chicken malawach as well; flaky and savory, and also well-spiced. It was a bit greasy which was the only regrettable thing about the experience, but not extremely and it didn't compromise the flavor or texture. The dining room itself was clean and elegantly decorated with Arabian and Gulf motifs, and the staff were friendly and helpful when my mother had questions about the menu. (I give any practicing Muslim props for working in food service while fasting during Ramadan.) All and all, grateful they're part of the community; I just hope they don't overexpand and sacrifice quality for quantity like many others.

I would like to return and try other pastries!

The thought of helping the environment even just a little bit - which adds up to a whole lot considering the amount of to-go beverage consumption daily - really adds up to make a huge impact!

They have completely non-plastic to go cups which are unique looking and we loved the extra effort they put into sustainability. They have bags of their used coffee grounds for free if you need to add to your compost pile or whatever needs you might have. 10/10, will be back!
