3.5 Good
Dropped in for a couple drinks, God it was hot outside and it was no surprise that the ice didn’t survive the trip back to the office (one block away). The space is inviting and they’ve got several tables if you want to just kick back.
I got their silky cake pearl milk tea, I was guessing it was the combination of pearls and pudding but it was much funkier than that. They lined the inside with creamy cheese and it gave the drink saltiness, the half sugar was about right but I think the salt enhanced it. My favourite part was the golden pearls, I would almost call them perfect. Smooth and chewy with a light honey-like flavour.
They also have a heavy focus on fruit tea and cheese fruit tea but for now, it’s all about those golden pearls.
Worth the money. 0.59cents to upgrade to a large drink. I was able to enjoy it for an hour - good quantity for 3.50 AUD
Bubble tea is definitely taking Melbourne by storm. It seems as there are bubble tea stores on every street and corner in the CBD and I for one, am not complaining. I passed by Toptea on an unusually hot day in desperate need for something icy cold, and they did not disappoint.
I ordered a frozen peppermint tea and it arrived promptly. The staff were friendly and efficient. The tea itself was very refreshing, although the peppermint flavour was quite strong. I was sharing the drink which was fortunate as I don't think I could have finished it on my own. It was really good on a hot day, but next time I think I will order a fruit based tea instead. Overall it was still a yummy cold drink and I would definitely go back for different flavours.
