Great place to go
Great staff and drinks! They even bring it to your car!
Love love love this place. I thought it had closed as soon as I many other places in the mall but I realized yesterday it’s still in the mall. The guy working there is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I remember u telling me ur not very busy from 11 to like 1:30 or so, have you all ever thought about opening up either another place or just relocating, opening up earlier like 6am or 5:30, I bet it would be profitable. I like Starbucks but they would lose me to u if did something like that.
They are absolutely amazing. They have good drinks and good service as well.
Best service in topeka. Hands down. The guy who works there is super sweet and walked me through the menu and explained everything.
Kevin is so great, first time visiting. My son has pancreatitis the walking through what he could drink and he was so knowledgeable such an awesome man

I am a long-time boba enjoyer and I have only good things to say about this place!! Fabian delivered OUTSTANDING customer service from the moment I walked up, even taking time to ask how my drink tasted. ? The very berry milk tea with rose was SPECTACULAR and they even had an option to customize "TONS of Bubbles" which I appreciate! ? The atmosphere was so FUN, including tabletop games to play while waiting, not to mention all the unique tea varieties that each smell divine!! Deserves more than 5 stars tbh.

I went here today before work, I was standing there for probably 10min before actually getting helped, the young volenteer was so sweet but his friend that was there with him kept distracting him, like when the one nice boy was making my drink and the other boy kept talking so the one boy kept turning the blender on and off instead of the hoodie boy waiting untill after to speak to his freind, I know when I volunteered here it took us a bit but not 15-20 min for 1 drink with no line at all, i just wanna know where the adult was this time, I do give credit for the drink as it was good but if a kid can't handle responsibility and stay on point or not distract other employees they shouldn't work here, and yes I know someone will reply back with an excuse but there isn't one, either keep your employees in line or have a responsible adult there at all times and not just 2, 13 yr old kids.

They don’t pay their workers and rumors around town say it’s owned by a cult.
service was fine, but the drinks were disgusting. bits of debris, and maybe mold, the proportions were messed up so it was watery and just overall gross looking, had several CHILDREN working, CHILDREN. definitely not going back, this is really disappointing.

Amazing service the person up front treated us very well and he greeted me by saying “How can I make your day better” and he was kind and helpful. They had samples on the table and the sample was so good I told him to give me whatever that was. It didn’t disappoint! It was amazing!

Hidden gem in the mall. Cool vibes, I got some Nitro Chai and a tasty London Fog scone. The gentleman that has been here both times I've been in was super friendly and nice. (I do wish the mall wifi worked, or the cafe knew their wifi password).

I go here all the time and I have been for 3+ years, I’ve met the owner a few times and him and his team are amazing. Up until lately I haven’t had issues with employees/volunteers but there has been multiple times (same employee/volunteer every time) that my order has been wrong, I paid for one size and got a different one, or they gave my order to someone else. There was one day that I ordered and it was wrong, that’s fine. It happens. They offered to remake it and I took the offer because I don’t like the texture of the particular drink they gave me. They remade it and then gave it to someone else for free. I went and told them that they gave it to someone else and they completely denied it. The person they gave it to was nice enough to come up for proof. They remade it (correctly) and gave me a free cookie because I had been there for well over an hour at this point. More recently I ordered, got my drink and it seemed small. I had ordered and paid for a regular, they gave me a small. I went up and explained the mix up, they completely denied it and said I had paid for a small. I should’ve gotten a receipt but I know now. Other than the service, this place is great, good boba, good cookies, some good staff, and amazing music playing at all times. Genuinely disappointed with how downhill this amazing establishment has gone.

Cafe banarbas is one of my favorite places in the mall. They have great bubble tea and healthy snack choices. All of their stuff is delicious, but affordable. Their employees are always kind and the service is usually quick, but at times they can be busy. Other than that i love cafe banarbas!
