Not sure what the hype was about, the bubble tea was average at best. Had the classic milk tea with bubbles, and everything was just really bland. When we ordered our drinks, it took a while to prepare the drinks because the tapioca wasn't cooked yet.
What's redeeming is that ample seating and a few board games so it's a good spot to catch up with friends. Also it's opened until 11pm so that's nice.
Overall, I would definitely spend the extra 50 cents for Chatime or Coco!!
