We have been coming to this location for a while and have had a good experience up until today. We ordered the same drink we always get and when we picked it up the syrup was all sitting at the bottom and would not mix in. We spend extra to get more sugar and it tasted like there was no sugar at all in it. I brought it back in and told them what was going on and asked for a refund and the lady looked at me like a deer in headlights and said have you tried mixing it. I asked for a refund and she refused to give me one and said she would instead remake it. Only remade one of my two drinks and before she gave me the new one she smugly flipped it upside down to try and mix the syrup in and gave it to me but low and behold the syrup just floated around like a lava lamp and still didn’t mix.

Nice place

87.5?!? If I were you, I’d read this sanitation score and reconsider if it’s worth the risk of eating from this place. Friendly staff but safety concerns and health comes first.

Their onigiri is very good

My experience did not match some of the other reviews so I wanted to share- the place was comfortable and cool, service was great the young man at the counter helped me with my order. We had two boba teas, onigiri and a noodle dish and it was fairly quick to come out and delicious. I would definitely come again especially for the boba teas.

I used to enjoy getting drinks here during my shift, but my last experience was concerning. I believe the coffee triggered an anxiety attack and I vomited shortly after drinking it. I was sick for two days. This was a distressing experience. I hope the café checks their preparation routine and quality, as it could help prevent others from having a similar issue :/

Lovely and cute place, the drinks were good and the staff were super friendly. However, the AC does not seem to work. Me and friends were there for about 20-30 minutes or so and the heat was a bit much. From what I was able to gather it seems like this has been going on for a while. This is rather concerning and I definitely think this should be a priority for any establishment. I wish I could recommend this place but the lack of AC would definitely make anyone walk away, especially as we are heading into the summer.

Since summer is here basically, I would’ve like some nice cool drink, but when I walked in, it was really hot and it was uncomfortable for me to wait for my drink and I just couldn’t imagine how the workers feel especially during rush hour.

Really disappointed...I have been to the chapel Hill location several times and always had a great experience. Today we went to this location and sat for 30 minutes just to be called up and told they were out of rice and made my rice ball and not my husband's and would refund us for the one. Like just say that when we order don't make us wait 🫠. The one rice ball I did receive was good.

really good. i normally go to Quickly Tea in Durham when i leave my Veteran’s Affairs doctor’s appointments but since they’re closed on Mondays i cried but looked for somewhere reasonably close and i decided to try here for the 1st time. i normally love gyoza from Quickly Tea and same drink Okinawa Milk Tea but surprisingly they had it here as well, and it was amazing! i like how you can get the sweetness to your desired level and there’s so many options! i’ll definitely come here again!

Ordered the Hulk tea with 50% less sugar, and the only thing sweet about it was the lychee that I added. I assumed it came with it because it was in the picture. But I ended up paying more for it. I got a taste of the green floaty stuff in the bottom and it’s basically a blended up jolly rancher. I’ll swing a mess. One out of five stars because the girl was working really nice.

I adore Yaya. Amazing teas and food. They have a variety of vegan rice balls. The tofu fries are also so good! I have not had a tea that wasn't amazing.

Wonderful Japanese snacks!

I love coming here. it's a nice place to pick up a quick snack. I adore their riceballs, but the most recent 3 times, the rice has been hard and dry. the milk teas are also not really that strong. it's mostly milk and hardly any tea. I hope this changes soon.
