Kari's Rating 9/10…read more Came with a friend and it was a really good experience. The taro was a perfect and not too sweet. I'll definitely be back! I love that this is in my neighborhood!! Place is pretty small and the servers are nice!

This is easily one of the best boba tea places in the loop! The tea selections they have are…read moreabsolutely amazing, and they have enough variety to where I you can try something new everytime. The staff are some of the nicest people I've met and were very Flexible and helpful with ordering and the manager was incredibly nice! She made sure to check in on everyone and was super sweet the whole time. She even helped get me a new croffle when it accidentally fell off my table. Overall amazing place and I will be there again! P.S: students can get a discount too!

I've been coming many times now since it's in a super convenient location to me. Decent place for…read moreboba drinks and popcorn chicken. Their boba is consistently cooked nicely so that's definitely a plus. Popcorn chicken is also good although not authentically Taiwanese style, but still tasty (I get them with the sour plum flavor and spicy). Inside has a small seating area. Their operating hour is quite short, I wish they would open earlier or later! Their menu is also not as full as the location in Chinatown, much limited options at this location (both drinks and snacks).

Come on, Ume Tea - you just need to do better…read more This location is extremely dirty and unhygienic - the place has grime and marks all over the place (floors, walls, seating areas), and there are insects/gnats just flying around. The staff aren't helpful, and you'll have to do the ordering on their kiosk. I wanted to check out their Surprise Cups, but they were all out, and the plushes that you could purchase were 'sold out'. No dice, Ume Tea. +extremely dirty! +unavailable items +unhelpful staff

Might want to consider updating the name of your drinks to reflect the actual offering so it is not false advertising. Milk tasted and looked water down. Boba was cooked average, the only silver lining in this experience. Too pricey for the quality. Definitely would not return or recommend!

As someone who makes their own matcha everyday, it's always a hit or miss when I buy matcha…read moreoutside. After trying two other disappointing matcha shops in Chicago, I definitely think Gathers Tea Bar is a HIT. Their plain matcha latte is not bad, but I would recommend their mango or strawberry matcha latte!

Yum!! I tried this place out for the first time yesterday (I ordered the mango matcha) and found it…read moreto be a bit sweeter than the matcha I tend to go for. I did do it at 100% sweetness (go big or go home, right?), so I'm not holding that against them. Sometimes you just have to make the wrong choice in order to make a better one. I think the sweetness would have been just right for me if I had chosen the 75% option. Loved that the tablets allowed for fast ordering. I'm not always into that (bring back the lost art of cashier conversation!), but the tablets make sense with the fast-paced nature of the shop. Don't know when I'll be back in that area, but when I am, I'll definitely pay them another visit!

Fresh squid and a balanced broth. The seafood chili sauce was also on point. My mom and sis got the vermicelli with lemongrass pork and it was great as well. Very good nuoc cham. My mom is still talking about coming back to try something else before we return to California!
