I love this shop!! The boba tea was so nice and they have dairy alternative milks too. It was so tasty and the staff are so so nice. There are a wide range of treats to eat also and the rainbow cake looked so tasty. The waffle was yummy and fresh too!

Best strawberry tea I've ever had Wish they had a few more warm breakfast pastry varieties in the case, but I so enjoyed eating a hot dog bun and mini pizza!

This is the best bubble tea I ever had, lychee green tea with mango popping bubbles, it was recommended by the lovely lady at the counter. The size of this tea is generous and it is so refreshing. The customer service is 11/10 very nice people working here. Definitely pop in here for a drink

Visisted Cork for a few days and found this lovely little bubble tea place! We got the mango tea with strawberry popping and apple tea with passion popping, and they were both lovely. We didn't get to try they're food, but it looks like they have a great little selection of nice treats and bubble waffles, which I'll have to try next time I'm in cork. Customer service was great too! Im very indecisive and the girl at the counter helped out no problem!

Sorry I didn't get the gentleman's name because he was excellent. Very helpful and polite, recommended toppings for the bubble tea as it was our first. While it was busy he worked so well under pressure while keeping his kind and positive attitude. Extremely welcoming, good music and positive atmosphere. Good value for money also.

Amazing boba tea! I stopped here while visiting Cork, Ireland. Their local is medium to rather small, but we still managed to find a seat. Their meny had lots of choices, from what kind of boba tea to different toppings - something I've never seen before! It should be noted that workers were humble and nice. Would 100% recommend for boba tea lovers to go here. PSA - an extra plus to you guys for playing Kpop Demon Hunter soundtrack
