Tan-Cha Gainesville

Stop by every time when we are in the area. Staff is always friendly and makes very good drinks.

Best spot ever for studying and that’s a fact. The girlies who work there are so kind and play the best music! Every drink I’ve had has been good and so customizable. They should make little UF Tancha stickers I know my friends and I would rep them!

Only one worker on shift, it’s been fifteen minutes and I ordered the superfruit tea, which is seeminlgy easy given that I’m a barista at another boba shop myself. I still haven’t gotten my drink. Worker keeps taking phone calls instead of doing the job. Boba is old and clumpy. And I tipped three dollars, regretfully. 1/5

The boba here is amazing and there are so many new and fresh flavor combinations to try! I have never seen a boba place with so many unique and tasty drinks. The atmosphere is also relaxed and cozy inside, and the staff are really friendly. Overall, it's a great spot to grab a fun drink!

Tried this place for the first time tonight AMAZING customer service thank you so much and great boba

Brown sugar latte with boba is really good

EDIT: The staff at Tan Cha gave my boyfriend and I free drinks to compensate for the inconvenience! This time, it was much more as I had as expected - our barista was very friendly and understanding, while our drinks were absolutely delicious! I ordered the coffee again, and it was much better this time around! My boyfriend ordered the Mango Creamio, and it may be his new favorite drink there! I changed the review to be what it should!

Normally, my experience with Tan Cha is very positive and great. The staff there are friendly and it is our go to spot every time we crave a nice boba drink. However, my boyfriend and I came in on a Sunday night and had a not too pleasant experience. First, we had a bad experience with another customer. We were standing next to the counter, waiting for our drinks, while this lady sitting next to us says "There are 3 other tables there, you have no reason to be standing so close to me," and pulled the chair we were standing next to closer to her. While this is not on Tan Cha directly, the bigger, curly brown haired lady making our drinks had a very distasteful attitude, as if she was sick and tired of being there and making our drinks. When she was done making our order, my boyfriend's Coffee Creamio spilled over the top as the lid wasn't secured all the way since it was overflowing. He had to clean it up, and she watched him do it, only asking "Do you want that wiped up?" (with a very tired attitude) only after he had already cleaned it up. Not to mention, I've ordered the Vietnamese Coffee from Tan Cha before and it is normally quite delicious, however, this particular time was very strong and almost salty. The same case with my boyfriend's Coffee Creamio - it was way stronger than normal and almost inedible to drink. The coffee was stronger than any other coffee I'd tasted anywhere else. Our boba was also stuck together in a huge chunk and would barely come apart. Overall, we still love going to Tan Cha on a mid afternoon with the other, very friendly staff. We came with our dogs a couple of times and the other ladies are always friendly, even offering them a little cheese foam in a cup and some water. The drinks are normally so delicious and that is why we come so often, it is just unfortunate that this particular visit was sour. It just needed to be shared.

saw this place had good reviews so i decided to try it but i regret it. the drink was mid and the barista seemed like she didn’t want to work there. i got brulee milk tea which comes with boba but they were out of boba so we asked to replace it with pudding instead. she still charged us for the pudding… she handed us the drink and didn’t say a word. probably not coming back lol
