About Gathers Tea Bar

Gathers Tea Bar is a cozy spot serving delightful drinks with a modern and clean design. Must-try items include the strawberry matcha and black sesame hochija latte, which is similar to Kasama's version. The thai tea and banana milk are also popular options, along with the Genmaicha Milk Tea, which highlights the smoky popped rice flavor without being watered down. Oat milk is available for non-dairy preferences. The interior features counter space with seats along the window and wall, as well as a bench near the drink pickup area, making it more of a "to-go" place than for sit-down chats. Customers can enjoy their drinks without waiting thanks to online ordering and two screens for quick and easy service. The drinks are praised for their smooth textures and unique flavors, with many saying the iced matcha was perfect, especially when ordered half sweet. The spot can get crowded, especially during busy times, and seating is limited. Despite this, many reviewers love it as a favorite for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, describing it as one of the best bubble tea spots in Chicago. The inviting and modern interior is perfect for those who prefer a quick, quality experience.
