  • My first experience with bubble tea was approximately 8 years ago. And it was at Bubble Republic (BR). I think. You know what, now I can't be sure, but it was somewhere in the GTA. I think. Bubble Tea quickly became a favorite drink of mine. Shortly thereafter, I was introduced to Thai iced tea. Then I learned about Thai food, Bánh mì, Hakka food, etc. Then I got fat. I don't know if BR's prices are what you can expect at an average bubble tea place in GTA, but I think it's a tad on the pricy side ($5.00+). But then, almost everything in GTA is a tad on a pricy side for a non-East coast American like me. However, BR has daily specials, which are slightly cheaper ($3.00+). I don't think I've ever had anything bad from here, but for the uninitiated some of the generic Canadianized drinks would be a safe bet, I'm sure (Oreo, Caramel, etc.) It ends up tasting milkshake-ish. Every drink I've had has been well flavored, well blended, and pretty satisfying. They're not stingy with the pearls; a good third of the drink will be just that. Also, the drinks are never, ever watery (which seems to be the main issue that I've had with other bubble tea places). Every time I've been to this location, it's been really quiet and not remotely busy. Service is decent, but it's nothing memorable. On an unrelated note, I've noticed that when you first walk in, there's a sign that says that you should wait to be seated or something. That's standard I guess, but I find it really odd that customers will come in for their to-go drinks, stand by the front door and not move; even if the entire place is completely empty and all of the empty chairs are beckoning. They're like really well-trained dogs or something, because they won't pass the small space by the front door while they wait for their drinks (which can sometimes be quite a long wait). All because of a piece of paper that says they should wait to be seated. So well behaved, you Canadians. It's cute; following the rules and whatnot.
