Crema's Take

The owner's meticulous attention to flavor balance and willingness to customize every drink makes Mei Tea feel more like a craft beverage lab than a typical bubble tea spot, and their homemade dumplings at bargain prices prove they care about the full experience. You'll encounter lines during peak hours, but regulars swear the perfectly sweetened classic milk tea with tapioca and those almond bubble tea options you won't find elsewhere justify the wait. This is where serious tea drinkers and families go when they want quality over convenience.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

What a great hidden gem. One of the few places to get almond bubble tea and offers a lot of flexibility to customize. The gem here though are the homemade dumplings. Be prepared to wait as the place is run by one lady. She is incredibly nice and aims to give everyone the best…
