“I recently had my bridal shower at this tea restaurant, and it was absolutely awesome! The ambiance was perfect – so charming and elegant, which made it feel special. The tea selection was incredible, with so many unique and delicious options that everyone enjoyed. The food was also amazing, from the delicate finger sandwiches to the scrumptious pastries; everything was fresh and tasty. What really stood out was the service; the staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. It was a truly memorable experience, and I highly recommend this tea restaurant for any special occasion. Thank you for making my bridal shower so wonderful!“

“First time here- food does not disappoint. All of the employees are helpful and courteous. They get very busy but even with the volume and a little bit of a wait, they try to be as timely as possible. A lot of gluten free options, all allergies clearly labeled. We’re hooked and will be back!“

“Great coffee, relaxed atmosphere, super friendly staff, and I can sit outside with my pup.“

“awesome food and great service!“

“too expensive, horrible service, arrogant and ignorant staff. unless you have 15 minutes to wait for a simple coffee and muffin while these igorant people commiserate with college students, dont bother patronizing this place. $15 for muffin, coffee and tip makes Starbucks seem inexpensive.“

“By far THEE BEST oat milk mocha on ZEE planet ❤️🔥“

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!“

“Great place! Coffee is amazing and their matcha drinks are the best. If you’re ever craving something cold and fresh that’s the place to go’“

“Starbucks...My lovely Starbucks! I have traveled over numerous continents and slugged through countless towns, stopping in many a storefront for a cup of that hot, delicious brew. Throughout my travels, I have never felt compelled to share my thoughts on any of my normally eventless excursions. This time however, something touched me like never before. I walked in and instantly, I was transcended to another realm. My mind suddenly cleared as I was welcomed warmly, the atmosphere calming and the service was superb. There is just something special about this place that escapes my limited ability to confer this to you, my friends. It is an experience one must undergo to truly understand. Try it, you will not be disappointed!“

“Came in for dinner and ordered the Forbidden Salmon — Nordic sustainable salmon over organic forbidden rice with a massaged kale quinoa salad, roasted carrot and beet, spicy cashew crunch, and miso maple sauce. Fantastic dish. Everything tasted fresh and well put together.

The chocolate chip cookie was excellent — do not skip it. Kombucha selection was solid, service was attentive, and the pricing is reasonable for the quality you're getting. Would definitely come back.“

“Great boba! A lot of milk tea doesn’t even taste of tea, but this spot does it right. The boba is perfectly supple and flavorful too, plenty of chew not over cooked or under. I went here 3 times and the service was fast and the boba quality was perfectly consistent the entire week. Would highly recommend for a quick grab brown sugar boba milk tea. I tried the Japanese dessert place next door for the same drink and it was disappointing in most dimensions compared to Kung Fu Tea.“

“It's a coffee shop inside Whole Foods. Never seems too busy not that they moved it to a corner in the bakery section. Lots of options. You either have to leave with your drink or carry it around with your while you shop.

Vegetarian options: It's all veg and your can get dairy free stuff too“

“Literally the only ice cream place we eat 🍦 My kids absolutely love it, and as a mom of a child with a peanut allergy, I was beyond grateful that one of the workers went above and beyond by thoroughly washing the scooper to avoid any potential peanut remnants. That level of care truly means everything. My personal favorite flavors are Amaretto and Toasted Almond — both AMAZING. Thank you for the delicious ice cream and the kindness“

“I love all of the employees they make the atmosphere impeccable! Every time I order my grilled cheese it is always perfect! Every time I order my drink i am not only handed my drink but also a warm and comforting smile! I love everything about this place and I will only come here even if it’s an hour away! 🥺🥺“

“Beautiful place to visit and walk around. The grounds are open to the public, although you should be respectful of the fact this is a residential college (grad dorms). Dining hall is probably the most beautiful on campus with its fantastic stained glass. A smaller stained glass window in memory of geaduate students who died in WW1 can also be found just outside the dining hall. As a place to live it can be sociable and attractive, but the rooms are somewhat spartan and lack air conditioning. It gets very hot and humid during the summer. Other options are more comfortable, but living here has a very special charm.“

“A very nice and cozy café with a limited but enough menu & a wired working hours! Food is not allowed in the library so you could sit, relax, and dine here (please 1) note that this café is not open to public, 2)check the working hours before you go there to buy food!!)???“

“The coffee is excellent and the staff is professional, caring and have an enjoyable sense of humor. I will be back.“

“The people here at the Starbucks in princeton are really smart. But where are those music producers?“
