One of the best bubble tea shops in the city! Their pearls are always cooked perfectly and they have many flavours and combinations available. I recommend any of their fresh fruit options and the taro sesame!

Elite bubble tea with so many options! Been going here for over 20 years 🙂

My partner and I's favorite bubble tea spot in the city! The drinks are consistently delicious, and I love that they know my usual (haha). Their seasonal pearl and honeycomb combo is unreal — definitely a must-TRY!

Amazing!

I have been getting bubble tea from here for over 15 years and I've never been let down.

Never had anything bad here and have tried a toooon. Love this place.

My favourite place for Bubble Tea. I’ve been going to Try Again for nearly 20 years and their drinks never disappoint.

Amazing selection, and everything tastes great. She puts a lot of care into her product, and it really is worth it compared to chain stores. The tapioca pearls in particular are really good textured!
We truly love this little gem of a shop in the heart of Chinatown. Their fresh fruit drinks are legit and refreshing especially on a warm day. Mango and honeydew is our favourite combo. For the cold days their hot tangerine black tea will warm you and soothe you especially if you’re under the weather. The staff is wonderful and decor is heartfelt. Try again and again and again and again…

If you're looking for the ultimate boba experience, Try Again Bubble Tea is where you need to go. I cannot stress this enough: this is the best boba I’ve ever had in my entire life. I ordered the taro smoothie boba, and it was nothing short of perfection. The flavor was absolutely divine—sweet in just the right way without being overpowering, and the creaminess from the smoothie base made it even better. The texture of the pearls was spot-on too: soft, chewy, and perfectly cooked. Honestly, other boba places don’t even come close to competing with the masterpiece they’ve created here.
The shop itself has a cozy, homey vibe that makes you want to settle in and enjoy your drink slowly. It’s a bit on the cramped side, but the decor really makes up for the lack of space. There are so many cute decorations around that add personality to the place, and it feels welcoming, almost like you’re visiting a friend’s house. That sense of warmth makes it such a nice little spot to hang out.
If you’re downtown and in need of a drink, I can’t recommend this place enough. The taro smoothie alone is worth the trip, but I imagine their entire menu is probably incredible too. Whether you're a hardcore boba fan or just looking to treat yourself to something delicious, Try Again Bubble Tea will not disappoint!

Four stars is really generous here because I don't like to give local businesses bad rating. My first time visiting this place. I felt rushed even though I was the only person ordering. Forgot to say no sugar which is my fault, but the drink was way too sweet. Fruit milk tea, couldn't taste the fruit. edit: changing to three stars. it just tasted so bad I threw it out. I hate wasting food and I almost never throw it out.

I had low expectations of finding a good milk tea store in Calgary. Luckily, I was near Chinatown! This restaurant’s cute, it’s like a cozy mini milk tea spot. The Totoro decorations enhanced its cute aesthetic. I didn’t get her name, but the lady who took my order and made my drink was friendly and nice. I asked her to choose a drink for me and she made me Hong Kong Milk Tea.
There are many options to choose from and I wish we stayed in this area longer just so I could try more flavors. The pearls/boba tasted good too, it has a unique taste that I can’t describe. My brothers never try other milk tea flavors other than Thai Tea, but they tried mine and bought some too. We love her recommendation! Definitely a place I would Try Again if I visit Calgary once more.

Cash and card is accepted. The fruit bubble teas really are fruity and my favourites are the ones containing lemon as they are quite tangy in an extremely delicious way. The texture of the pearls is unique and soft. As always with bubble tea, definitely order with 50% or 30% sugar. Definitely worth a visit :)
