“I googled a coffee place. I found this 2 blocks from my nieces apartment. I had my elderly parents with me. They complain everywhere we go. My mom loved the crossiant, arugula, turkey, bacon. My dad loved his ham and cheese croissant. I had an ice cafe latte with almond milk. The only negative for me is I wish they had something healthy like oats or granola for me to munch on.“
“Very nice quiet atmosphere. Very peaceful and I loved seeing the daughter and Mom duo. It's was refreshing to see considering I brought my daughter along with me. The Boba my daughter ordered wasn't sweet to her liking, and she was going to add additional sugar, however the owner called my daughter over to fix the drink. It's the little things and this business has it! ❤️“
“These donuts are fantastic! The flavors are fun and it’s hard to choose just one. The woman running the counter was so accommodating and made sure that I got my tea exactly how I wanted it, which I’ve really never been asked before. There’s a spacious seating area inside too, which we took advantage of! This is definitely my new go-to donut spot.“
“A great casual Korean spot in the spring garden! They have many lunch specials and lunch boxes, appetizers, noodles, rice, soup, and rice balls (to go). I personally really liked the flavors of the soup and was satisfied! A few tables are available for seating but can be filled up quickly. The cashier and other staff were very friendly as well!“
“There's not other way to describe this place except..surreal. The menu boasts boba soft serve combos as well as crazy mixes of soft serve, as well as cake topped with toppings frosting and soft serve in mason jars! Our favorites was the taro boba topped with taro and matcha swirl! The flavors were amazing and the boba was the perfect consistency! The Cookie Monster themed nom nom was perfect for kids (3 kids could share one!) and the chocolate cake mason jar but was 90% soft serve and 10% cake/frosting/fudge/etc. Super friendly and helpful employees. Pricey but worth every penny. Will be back soon!“
“Gong cha is solidly okay boba - nothing to write home about but their tapioca is a good texture of chewy but not to chewy. The teas are too sweet for me at regular sweetness, so I recommend getting 50% sugar (regular is 75%). The service at this location is and a drink will average $7-8 with tax. They share the space with a to-go sushi restaurant and have a few tables inside, so you can grab dinner and a drink and sit and eat.“
“A small corner bakery in South Philly with an Asian flair. Hearty and delicate and sweet and savory pastries, steamed pork and vegetable buns, traditional Asian pastries at the holidays like beautiful mooncakes and gorgeous cake creations including Yule Logs at Christmas. New and delicious dishes are always being introduced and there is an extensive menu of beverages. You will not leave Dodo hungry or broke! Everything is very reasonably priced especially for such high quality creations!“
“Finally went in for the first time. Christine is so lovely, she let me sample the sauce before ordering. I chose the Passyunk Double Passion bowl since I like salmon, eel, and mango. It was really fresh, all the ingredients were good. You can also mix your own bowl and there's a good variety of toppings to go on sushi rice, brown rice, or salad. Will definitely come again, she's currently on break for Labor Day!“
“We stopped by for the donuts and Korean corn dogs and the food was amazing!! The donuts are so good we finished them and we might get more before we leave. Super soft and fresh! The place was really cute and very clean, they also had samples of a donut to try while we were deciding.“
“Loved this place been here a couple of times and the food and service is the best you could get. Refills water periodically, takes trash off table for you, packs your food to go if you don’t finish it. The boba is good here the balls are really soft and chewy. Must get the karaage chicken def a good portion size. The decorations here is so cute too love the vibe this place gives.“
“Let me preface by saying that when I rate bubble tea places, I usually compare them in relation to Kung Fu Tea because Kung Fu Tea's bubble tea isn't the best but it isn't the worst. It's not my go to spot but it's always a safe option when that boba craving hits. And they have a good variety when it comes to milky and fruitier options. For additional context, I usually prefer fruit teas and adjust the sugar level (typically one level below 100% sweetness). After trying a few of their drinks, I would rank Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea as being better than Kung Fu Tea. As someone who doesn't usually drink milk teas, I like that Yi Fang offers more tea based options. Also, because Taiwan is known for their tea, I like that that aspect is highlighted more in Yi Fang's drinks. There is ample seating inside with a cozy, chill vibe so it's a good place to hang out with friends. Drink Ordered: * worth trying - [Lemon Mountain Tea with Green Tea Jelly and 70% Sugar*]: I like citrus drinks that are more tart so I think 70% is a good sugar level before it gets too tart. The tea flavor comes through and the green tea jelly is a good compliment to the drink. The green tea jelly is similar to aiyu jelly in texture but with a green tea flavor. - [Mango Sago with 50% Sugar]: This drink is a slushy consistency. This drink probably tastes the best when mangoes are in season because with the 50% sugar level, you could tell that the mangoes weren't sweet. Between this and the Mango Pomelo Sago, I would choose the Mango Pomelo Sago because the drink has more depth with the addition of the pomelo. - [Mango Pomelo Sago*]: This drink is a slushy consistency. Similar to the Special Mango Juice Smoothie-o at Mango Mango. The drink at Mango Mango costs less so I'd recommend ordering a different drink at Yi Fang but this is a good drink nonetheless. Pomelo is like a sweet grapefruit and adds a nice citrus flavor and texture to the drink. Would I go back? : Yes. Yi Fang is a bit out of the way for me but, whenever I'm in the area, I usually try to go. Because I've only been here three times, I can't give as comprehensive of a review compared to my other bubble tea shop reviews so my thoughts on Yi Fang may change as I try more of their drinks but I like what I've tried so far.“
“One of my go-to spots for boba. Drinks are consistently good. Great tea flavor with their milk teas. I wish I could remember her name but there's one worker that it usually the one working when I come. She's been super helpful answering my questions when I'm being indecisive about my order . Location is clean but pretty small with no seating. I like that they have their menu posted off to the side so I can contemplate my order without being in the way.“
“I’ve been here a bunch of times but they keep adding new menu items to get excited for. They now offer rice bowls! Their banh mi’s are really good, the classic and pork skewer are my favorites! Nicely flavored meat with the right balance of fresh picked vegetables. The bread is crisp as it should be. Their drinks stay creative and exceptional! So many options you can even craft your own. I’ve tried nearly all of them and enjoyed every single on. Personal favs are the Thai sunset, lychee sunrise, and purple daze. The service is always amazing and really helpful, and you can dine in inside or outside or take out, order through an app to go. It’s casual and easy for a lunch break or really anytime!“
“1. The food was delicious, especially the marinated egg.2. Have the option to customize the salty levels. I personally would recommend less (salty), as regular (salty) is too much for me.3. The portion sizes are a bit small and pricey compared to other ramen restaurants, but a nice option for a quick and easy ramen.4. The service was nice and fast, was never rushed.5. The atmosphere of the restaurant was relaxed and clean.“
“My experience at Mr. Wish was nothing short of excellent. The service was top-notch, and the drinks were absolutely refreshing. I stopped by for a quick drink and was greeted by two incredibly friendly staff members who were eager to assist me. They were knowledgeable about the menu and helped me find the perfect drink to suit my taste.Speaking of drinks, I tried their signature drink, and it was a delightful blend of flavors that left me feeling rejuvenated. The quality of ingredients was evident, and the presentation was impeccable. What truly stood out to me was the genuine care and attention to detail shown by the staff. They took the time to ensure that my order was just right and made me feel welcomed throughout my visit. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone craving a delicious and refreshing beverage served with a side of exceptional service. Five stars all around!“

“Penrose Cheesesteaks makes delicious food! They have everything you can think of. From Cheesesteaks, Burgers, Wings and Cajun seafood they have it! Plus, the service is quick and awesome and never had a bad order. I would recommend this place.“
“I was in pa yesterday looking for a Japanese food that my friend stumbled upon ，The service was quick and great. We enjoyed the sushi which was beautifully plated. Everything was fresh and delicious definitely come next time. Very good choice.“
“This was my first time visiting surreal icecream and I was pleasantly surprised. The blue icecream was very good, definitely a fan of soft serve and there were many options of flavors. The cake on the bottom was pictured as a vanilla cake but it was a chocolate cookie and cream flavor with chunks of chocolate. If you're looking for a quick dessert I would recommend this spot for sure“
“So yummy! Great staff, willing to modify your beverage however you’d like. They can even do less sugar if desired. They used real frozen fruit for their fruit smoothies which I definitely appreciated. The decor is fun and the location is clean and well maintained“
“Always a good experience here. I always use the mobile app to order ahead with no issues. My drinks are always made correctly. The one guy that works here is always so nice and friendly. He always insists on helping me carry my large order of drinks out to my car. Thank you!“
“Delicious boba tea and smoothies, and quenched my thirst on a hot day. They just opened this week and love that it’s such a clean store to sit down. Love the 3Q signature tea since it’s a whole dessert in a drink. Mango and strawberries smoothies are delicious.“
“You can tell it is more a grab and go type of place for the college folks but our dine-in experience was great nonetheless! Staff was so kind, attentive, and food came quickly. Sushi was amazing and amazing, I enjoyed my miso soup, and my husband and I shared some edamame.Definitely would recommend for anyone looking for some sushi in the neighborhood! Mango Tango and Holiday rolls were my favorites!“
“Their green bubble tea was really nice that uses authentic green tea that was brewed the same day. You can decide how much sugar and ice you want for your bubble tea. Just one thing, if you’re sensitive to caffeine, you might have trouble falling asleep at night. Mornings are fine, dinner or nighttime, would be best to get their fruit bubble tea.“
“This location is at my office. I have bee here three times. Every time, the drinks are amazing. I have had the black tea lychee and the mocha. I recently tried their popcorn chicken and I am now addicted to it. Everytime I am in the office, I have it for lunch. The protion is quite ample and the sauce they give is delicious. The chicken is always hot and juicy which is nice.I like the atmosphere of the store. It is clean, modern and a nice place to be if you have to wait for your order if you do not order ahead via their app.Generally, the staff has been quiet and not overly welcoming. Today, the guy behind the counter greeted me and told me to "have a nice day" which is a huge step in the right direction. The staff is not rude but definitely not engaging or overly welcoming.Finally, they seem to do a steady business. When I order ahead, everything is ready right on time. The one time I did not order ahead, it took only a few minutes to make my drink which was nice since there were alot of pick up orders being made.Overall, I love this place. The drinks are fantastic and the popcorn chicken and supremely addictive.“
“The bubble tea at this place is a true delight for anyone seeking a refreshing and flavorful beverage. The variety of tea bases, from classic black to fruity blends, provides options for every taste preference. The addition of chewy tapioca pearls or other unique toppings adds a delightful texture to each sip. What sets this bubble tea apart is the perfect balance between sweetness and tea flavor--the sweetness is customizable, ensuring it caters to individual preferences. The drinks are not only delicious but also aesthetically pleasing, making it a treat for both the taste buds and the eyes. If you're a bubble tea enthusiast or a first-timer, this spot offers a fantastic experience that captures the essence of this popular beverage trend.“
“Very cozy boba shop. The tea tasted quite nice.In addition, the Jenga on the tables was a nice touch. The service was pretty fast considering the high volume of orders.This shop is exactly what a good boba shop should be, with the wide drink selection, the cozy atmosphere, the many tables to sit at for a date, and even games on some tables. The sweetness and ice levels can be adjusted for the drinks so customization is quite nice. Drinks were also not too expensive, at least in terms of boba prices. 10/10“
“If you’re ever in the center city area and craving bubble tea, this is the place you should check out.They offer excellent customer service, a peaceful atmosphere, and it’s a perfect spot for studying. I ordered the taro milk tea and absolutely loved it!What’s even better, they offer a fantastic back-to-school happy hour deal from Monday to Thursday, 1-4 pm, with a buy-one-get-one-free offer on select drinks listed on their flyer!“
“202312One day, I suddenly wanted to eat chicken cakes. I checked and found out that I was happy to buy them here. It was quite expensive for $4 for four pieces. It turned out that the texture did not taste like chicken cakes... I had a close-up of the texture and I was disappointed.202109Tieguanyin ice cream is not too sweet! Very~~~delicious“
“Best place to get a boba tea in the area. Their Korean style fried chicken is also pretty good. I really appreciate that they accept dogs inside and even give away free dog biscuits. that’s really nice when I’m walking my dog and need something to drink.“
“Simply the best bubble tea in the neighborhood!The Hong Kong (Silk Stocking) Milk Tea, Strawberry Latte, and Rose Milk Tea are must-tries. Unforgettable and fresh. The Hong Kong milk tea is addictively strong with a really pleasant aftertaste - apparently theirs is a cold brew done the traditional “silk stocking” way. I’m not even a fan of strawberry milk but the Strawberry Latte I’ve gotten multiple times. They don’t just blend strawberry and milk, they create their own strawberry jam in house with citrus, creating a delicious treat! The Rose Milk Tea is a perfect springtime snack ? elegant, sweet, and luscious.If you’re a tea aficionado or even just someone craving a nice snack, please consider Woosa. The quality of the brew is excellent and it’s awesome to be supporting a local Asian female owned business to boot. Other drinks I like include the dalgona, taro, and peach milk tea.The second best part I like about Woosa is the lovely space they’ve created for folks to just chill out in. Very spacious and refreshing, there are a couple of beautifully painted full wall murals of whales and dolphins and little blue velvet chairs, and ample seating to offer privacy for studying, hanging out with friends, dates, or simply just resting in the middle of a busy day…So glad I found Woosa! Don’t miss it if you’re in the neighborhood!“
“I had the early gray milk tea with pearl boba and milk foam. It was amazing and they even put it in my reusable 16oz coffee cup!The place is so clean and the gentleman behind the counter was super helpful. I will for sure be back to try other flavors.“
