✅ Cozy interior, cute patio seating☕ Wide range of coffees, teas, slushes Good food!Café BT is my favorite cafe in a place that is filled with tea and coffee shops! What stands out to me about Café BT is that they have something for everyone. They offer a diverse range of seating that accommodates people who are here to catch up with their friends, to have a cute café date, or to have a study session. In addition, they have a large menu that ensures you will find what you are looking for. They have all the coffee classics, basic teas, milk teas, fruit slushes, and more! I loved their Affogato and strawberry yogurt slush. Some cafés specialize in drinks but Café BT has a solid food list as well. The waffles and shaved ice are what stand out to me! While Café BT is still very popular with the locals, it isn't like Summerfield or The Mugs that can get crowded with people from all over Orange County. While the indoor seating can get filled, I've never visited and been unable to find a seat. Café BT's drinks don't stand up to specialty coffee or tea places but they're still very good, and for the price and atmosphere that this place offers, Café BT is a hidden local gem!22/25

I haven't tried a lot of the boba here but the ones I have tried are pretty good. I've had the Dana slush and the Mango slush. The patio has a nice atmosphere. It can get cold but heaters are available. I haven't been here during warmer times but I'm sure it's nice.

Boy, am I glad our original plan didn't work out, otherwise we would not have found this super cute and charming place!! Picture walking into the home of your best friend or coziest person you know. That personifies that vibe of this place. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating - we sat outside. It reminded us every bit of our own homes...lots to look at, lots of plants, great books, and cozy spots where you can chat and enjoy a dessert, coffee, or light snack.We opted for dessert as we had just eaten brunch and loved every bit of it! We shared the fruit shave ice which consisted of perfectly shaved "snow" ice. The texture was a perfect balance of crunchy / soft and almost didn't even taste cold in my mouth. Added to it was a variety of fresh fruits doused in condensed milk. SO GOOD!!!! I love that we found this place and can't wait to share the experience with my kids.

Great place for social gathering. The place seems to be always busy and full when I visit. Maybe it's because of the comfy interior design or super nice, friendly owner and staffs or both but most importantly, I think it's because of variety of tasty drinks you can't find in other boba places.
Love hanging out with my friends at this quaint place. Had their amazing apple hibiscus juice with boba ? everything here is so good.

Been coming here since it was called Boba Time. Now it's called Cafe BT but it's still good. My go-to is the red bean smoothie, which totally reminds me of my childhood and the red bean ice cream my mom used to make. The frozen yogurt is tasty, too. Haven't had it in a while, though, so I may have to try it again. I haven't tried much else because I always want the red bean smoothie, but people seem to like what they order. Prices are similar to most other places right now. Nice little place to hang out, and there's a pretty good sized outdoor patio - with heat lamps if it's cold. It's a pretty popular place for people to meet. Parking can be a challenge, though.

*FOOD QUALITY*Overall: I remember back in the day when this was BobaTime and it was a hookah joint as well - so happy to know that the Dana Slush still exists on the menu with the cafe rebrand because that was a legendary boba culinary experience. Turkey Avocado Sandwich (5/5): I appreciated the cut-up strawberry chunks on the plate as well as the presentation which was so appealing and vibrant to look at! The croissant, turkey slice, and avocado combo is never a miss and this one was good :) Large Milk Tea (5/5): LOVE the boba texture - so firm and bouncy but had a perfect sweetness. The milk tea was also well flavored and did the classic well. *CUSTOMER SERVICE*The servers reminded me so much of being in a kdrama - they were dressed to the prime and were very friendly and patient with our orders. They would bring the plates and drinks to where my friend and I were seating, and you can often see them maintaining the space such as cleaning the windows/doors. *AMBIANCE*The outdoor backyard area is very cutely decorated with plants and furniture that show a modern, chill vibe. It's great to catch up on a warm summer, early fall night - every time that I've been there it's been a gathering of older folk smoking and a mix of young students hanging out. The interior of the cafe is so endearing (re: cafe and servers reminding me of a kdrama) - the lighting and details in furniture and coloring is fantastic as well as the large windows flanking the two sides of the cafe allowing sunlight to glimmer in. Many different demographics spend time here, some on their laptops working or studying, others are young children with their parents, etc. *PARKING*The parking lot for this plaza is a bit small but I found spots to the side of the Cafe BT, facing the buildings on the other side.

came here for some late night sweets! Did not disappoint! I have not seen bingsoo overloaded with so many things lol, def lots of fruit and mixes of things but wasn't bad! would've liked to see more customizations of bingsoo or sizes but it was fine! Ambiance is really cool, it was quite busy around 10pm but outside seating and lights made it such a vibeeee! would def come back if I am craving some late night sweets or a place go study/hangout!
