Tea Rex
2920 Johnston St, Lafayette, LA
Crema's Take
“Tea Rex draws crowds with its charming, aesthetically pleasing space and expansive menu that goes well beyond your typical bubble tea shop, featuring standout items like Korean corn dogs that keep regulars coming back. While their specialty drinks—particularly their boba teas and creative flavor combinations like Okinawa Pearl Milk Tea—are generally solid, what really shines is the inviting atmosphere and friendly staff that make it an ideal spot for lingering with friends or catching up over a light bite. It's the kind of place where the whole experience, from the cute decor to the relaxed vibe, matters just as much as what's in your cup.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Cute little place bigger menu than I expected. The Korean dog I had was cheese and sausage ( not sausage it’s a wiener). It was different, good for a small meal. Couldn’t tell there were Cheetos on it. Didn’t give very much sauce, but I didn’t ask for more. Paid a dollar extra…
Ordered the Okinawa Pearl Milk Tea with Boba and the Passion Lychee with Lychee Popping Pearls. Both drinks were okay—not particularly great, but not bad either. However, I loved their decor, and I must mention the exceptional service. We arrived during the last 10 minutes…
