“It’s my first time ever here. The gentleman recommended a few menu for us. He definitely knows what’s good. Boba and fruit smoothies and milk tea are so good. i got mango nature smoothies. brown sugar milk tea and coconut milk tea. oh my god. And there’s a big sofa is like heaven. It’s so cozy I was falling asleep I felt so welcomed and wanna def come back here again. He also offered us free sample of smoothies for us to try to see if we like it or not. I mean who does that these days. He is the kindest boba maker I’ve ever met. Thanks for your kindness. You’re such a nice person! 🙏💕☺️“

“Their Jasmine Hot Tea with egg nog boba was delicious!!! Loved the cup with heart stopper ❤️. So cute. This hot drink has been the best hot drink I’ve tried this year! To top it off I noticed they had games you can play, so this is great for a group of friends or family! Also plenty of parking!“

“great spot for quick snack of crispy fried chicken & great sized boba. The chicken has a bit more batter but well seasoned & crunchy. They do order at the counter & touch screen orders. The process was seamless & we enjoyed the meal!“

“Ume Tea is hands down my favorite boba spot in Evanston! The drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I’ve tried a bunch of places, but their brown sugar boba is consistently top tier—perfect balance of sweetness and texture. The staff is friendly and efficient, and the space is clean, modern, and super aesthetic. Highly recommend if you’re a bubble tea lover or just looking to try something new!“

“I was just passing through on a solo trip and saw how cute this shop looked on the outside and decided to duck in! Super cute and cozy atmosphere for being a smaller shop, featuring super cute croissant waffles and the best peach oolong tea I've encountered. And I've tried A LOT of Bubble Tea places. I'll keep this place on my radar when I come back!!“
“Organic and not powdery at all! Very sweet so I recommend 50% sweet to start. Kinda expensive but worth it! Their boba is made in a special marinade so it’s better than the average!“

“Great variety of boba and traditional fruit smoothies. I got the brown sugar boba, non dairy, made with black tea as well. PLEASE remember to shake it before you put the straw in it cause flavor is key here. Tapioca is made fresh you can taste it, tea brewed perfectly and it’s delicious. Atmosphere is so cute. I recommend this place to anyone who likes boba or anyone who wants a fresh fruit smoothie! Great variety of flavors and milk options which isn’t common!“

“A tad obsessed!! My son loves guava smoothie, I love the coffee boba and street food. It’s hard to resist the fryer faves with the cold smoothie. My husband loves the iced tea, which like all the drinks, you can order with varying levels of sugar, or no sugar at all.“

“Great bubble tea spot! We always come here when we're in the Wicker Park area. The lady working is very nice and she can even make a custom bubble tea if there's something you want that's not on the menu (like a lychee peach smoothie, mm!) What a boss. There's seating and washrooms. They're also friendly, fast, and the bubble tea is delicious.“

“been here a few times, each is better experience that the last, attempt to try most of their items on menu. So far, my favorite is their Mango smoothies with cloud cheese, as drink. Their cloud cheese is really good and a balance of salty taste with the sweetness of the mango, the tapioca in the drinks is plentiful but not overpowering the water content. I had it in other Chinatown restaurants, some had too many tapiocas that my teeth were tired chewing them. Cuckoo is not. Their Don (Japanese rice bowls) and their bibimbap (Korean rice bowls) are excellent. Have not decide which is better because each have their own uniqueness and tastes; I had 2 types of their bibimbap before and only 1 type of their Don. So far, I am leaning towards the Don but there is excellent amount of veggie in their Bibimbap, which is ideal for weigh concise person. Wish they have a loyal customer rewards style of drinks incentives, much like some restaurants, for example, buy 9 and get 1 free drink, or some % off after 5 drink purchases, and give customers an advertisable nice pocket size reward card to keep track of their purchases. That may also work with food item purchases as well. Crossing my fingers that this may happen soon. With summer in Chicago, cool refreshing drinks is ideal and as loyal customers, return for more drink purchases with rewards will be even better.“

“Drinks and efficiency are 5/5. Best fruit tea in the area. It’s super cute with the couch and flowering tree, there’s some games, and good music. Accessibility is poor tho. I am using a temporary mobility aid, and there’s a couple inch step before the first door, plus no button to automatically open the doors. The path to the bathroom today was also very narrow due to lots of boxes, and I couldn’t get my wheelchair in (at least today). Seems like fixable things; add a small cement ramp by the door, clear the hallway, add a door button. :) I really do love this place overall and have even gotten a cute plushie keychain here too!“

“What a cute little place! And it's not little at all, there's actually so much seating! We tried a variety of items, food and drink and the only thing that is NOT worth getting EVER from this place is their chicken wings. They do not know how to make them and they shouldn't be making them! All the other stuff is fabulous because that's their niche! Love watching how they prepare the seaweed burritos and bowls. Drink are a mystery because they bring them out from the back kitchen, which is where they have the machine that seals the tops. Food is awesome and you should try it for sure!“

“Drinks are good. Sad that they did away with their last rewards program without any notice or chance to redeem or convert points to something of monetary value to the new system. Seating is a hit or miss depending on where you go. Staff also uses the single table on the north end of the store as their own place for stuff like bags, etc., taking away one of the four tables the space offers.“

“Came here for an event and it was great food with friendly staff! Had the pumpkin Carmel Mochi donut and the mozzarella original flour dog. Both tasted great and something that reminded me of the street food in Asia! Staff was very friendly as well- support your local businesses!“

“The Banh Mi sandwich was honestly one of the best ones I've ever had. The lemongrass chicken was juicy and flavorful. The bread was exactly how it should be (crunchy outside, soft and fresh inside). All the veggies (carrots, daikon, cilantro, cucumbers) were fresh. The sauce was a perfect amount which brought everything together beautifully.“

“Chi Tea is my absolute favorite spot near Loyola! Their taro boba is perfectly creamy, not too sweet, and the tapioca pearls are always fresh. I usually grab the Big Bird sandwich too—it’s huge, juicy, and filling enough to last me through classes. The staff is friendly and it’s such a nice break from the usual campus food.“

“I got a pumpkin spice latte with brown sugar boba and the tapioca was super soft, chewy and warm! They’re also doing a Barbie collab right now which allows you to get a free Barbie straw topper if you get one of their Barbie themed drinks; I tried the Barbie Pink-Ade last time and it was refreshing!“

“Delicious boba tea! I had the Coconut milk tea with boba and my husband had the mango fruit with boba. This was our first time here! It was busy when we walked in with lines for those wanting to get there bubble / boba tea. There was a great menu of options to choose from and a nice sitting area to relax, and enjoy the drinks. Staff were quick and busy filling in the orders that were coming in. This is located in Chinatown near the Chinatown square. Great spot and delicious boba teas! We will definitely come back when we visit this area again!“
