The Alley is a small bubble tea shop with good service, although some may find it a bit slow. The matcha special is a popular choice, despite being a little pricy. Regulars enjoy the royal no 9 and iron goddess teas, but some have noticed a decline in quality recently. While the drinks are tasty, there have been complaints about them being watered down. The shop offers a wide variety of drink choices, and it can take time to decide from the menu. The place is small and cute, with attractive show pieces and some items for sale like pins and cups. The staff works hard to keep the environment appealing, but the small kitchen requires good coordination and teamwork. Many customers appreciate the option of soy milk at no extra cost, and some have praised the excellent service, including staff going out of their way to ensure customers get points after a transaction. The brown sugar milk has been described as delicious and chewy, with the staff making the experience even better. Although there is no seating available at the front counter, parking is available nearby on Byng Ave and in front of the store. Despite some concerns about drink quality, many still enjoy visiting the Toronto location for its tasty drinks and friendly service.
