This place is a hidden gem! The employees are professional, helpful, and made us feel so special! We had a curry pastry, matcha brownie, macarons, and of course some delicious tea! Cannot wait to return and buy more tea!

I had a wonderful time when I visited here last year. We got matcha lattes, best I've ever had. Plus the vibes were so cozy and warm inside. A lovely spot all together.

I love boutique local cafes. This place is perfect for me. It's a very cute and warm place. I don't know why I didn't discover it before. The chai latte was amazing. Five stars.❤️✌️🌸

FAVORITE CAFE!!! I come here soooo much with my brother and mom and we always enjoy. They have so much different options and they're all delicious. I recommend to get cherry rose bubble tea 😋, spring rolls, Samosas, and macarons.

Fantastic bubble tea place in the area. A little out of the way from the main Albany convention center but worth the trip. Plenty of parking. The bubble tea options were great. I especially like Taro! You can’t go wrong. I recommend this place!!
