7 Leaves Cafe

I came here because it was one of the only boba spots open that was near a coffee shop my mom likes. I walked in and the place was very clean and I saw a few people coming in to work on laptops. It had that café vibe for sure. They had water bottles for sale. As far as boba goes, there wasn’t a lot to choose from but the service was nice. I ended up trying the Rio Rosa with boba. The drink had a hint of lime, which I didn’t expect but it was a pleasant surprise. It had a unique flavor and I finished it pretty quickly. There was also plenty of parking and lots of seating.

Told the cashier I wanted 2 house coffee with no ice and less sugar, cashier didn’t even repeat the order back to me and tell me the grand total price so I assumed she heard my request. When the drink came out is with ice and not less sugar 😪

One of my favorite spots to study whenever I'm in the area. I always go for the Vietnamese coffee with half sweetness and half ice. If you prefer something with more flavor and less caffeine, the House Coffee is a great alternative. The Strawberry Hibiscus is also a refreshing, well-balanced option. It would be nice if they had more cushion on their seats and better back support, it would make longer study sessions a lot easier.

Staff are so kind! It's so quiet inside that everyone is working on their laptop, so I felt like I had to be quiet as well. I ordered the famous bubble tea and it was not good... sorry!

The staff is always friendly and attentive! :) The drinks are always super refreshing and yummy. The drinks are super sweet but you can ask for less sweet and less ice if you want :)

This was my first time trying this cafe.. service was great.. selections are not much. And match is 4.5/10

Service was nice and quick. The inside was very cozy and clean... looked like a good place to hang out or study. I ordered a large Sea Cream Jasmine Tea with Crystal Boba ($4.80 + $0.75 for large size + $0.60 for the Crystal Boba). The drink was so delicious! The mixture of sea cream and jasmine tea created a unique flavor that was not overly sweet. For a boba drink these days, the price was not bad at all, especially for a large drink. I would definitely come back to this 7 Leaves Cafe to get the same drink whenever I'm in the area for vacation!

Staff were polite and patient. The boba shop has sufficient seats for big groups. They have limited menu but sometimes less is more. Two thumbs up for the quality of their drinks. I had the Taro Milk Tea, and the Mung Bean Milk Tea. Both were so good. Sweetness level and flavor were perfect for both drinks. I could taste the mung bean, and the taro in each drink. I didn’t bother about the topping because I thought that it would spoil the real taste of the drinks. Definitely would come back here again for the drinks.

I am an avid coffee drinker, and while I like to explore new coffee shops, 7 Leaves Cafe is one of my go-to's, just because they do a mean Vietnamese Coffee I was saddened to hear that the location off of Richmond Ave closed, but I'm more than happy to go down the road and into Chinatown to enjoy one of my favorite beverages The space is clean, inviting, and is a great place to hang out with friends, get some work down, or just to sit and relax. The staff were incredibly friendly and efficient. And the drinks were delicious as always Some tips: Join their rewards program and receive points every time you order. You can also receive a free drink on your birthday Cheers!!

Off the menu combinations ask the barista!!! I got the combo strawberry Hibiscus and sunset passion. They were really good! I'm so glad the barista recommended this off the menu combo.

This tea shop never misses. Unless I'm in the mood to try something new, I'm willing to visit here for just about any reason whether it be studying, socializing, or simply taking a break. Clean interior all around, spacious seating, abundant natural lighting from two directions, impressively fast service, even faster WiFi speeds (315 Mbps up, 150 down. Nice!) -- I can't ask for much more in terms of non-drink related qualities. And of course, the drinks themselves. I absolutely love the mung bean tea with 50% sweetness. I've gradually equated 7 Leaves with this drink since its unique flavor stands out among the saturated milk tea scene in Chinatown. It's fairly priced in my opinion; though the base price ($5.25) may look higher than some other establishments, it doesn't require the extra charge of boba to taste great. In fact, I personally think that adding boba would ruin its uniqueness. The assam and green thai tea have not let me down either if you insist on getting something more familiar sounding. This place just works. There's nothing overly fancy about it and their menu offers a limited number of drinks, but it would be grossly incorrect to assume that this location offers an average experience. I consider this 7 Leaves location the queen of all trades in most areas (yes, more than the jack) and king/ace in terms of drink quality.

To quote my friend " wow, that's lightning fast service"! Right when the order was submitted, the drinks came out to be served, and it was on a busy weekend afternoon. The team here was certainly efficient! I ordered the mung bean milk tea since that was a high ranked drink, and I quite enjoyed it. The mix of mung bean paste, pandan and jasmine milk tea made for surprisingly great flavors. The honey boba add on was also just the right level of chewiness and sweetness. If you're looking for a refreshing flavor not commonly found elsewhere, this is the one to try. Pro tip #1: Since the mung bean paste and honey boba carry sweetness already, try ordering the drink at 30% sweetness if you're looking for something "not too sweet". Pro tip #2: if you visit during the afternoon, do not sit near the windows unless you're looking for a good tan.

I had just finished dinner with some friends and we were looking for a little finisher - one of them suggested milk tea and since 7 Leaves was close by, we decided to take a short walk over and check it out. 7 Leaves is set up somewhat similarly to other milk/bubble tea spots I've been to - the biggest difference for me was that it's larger than ones I've been to in NY with a lot more seating. The majority of their menu is tea, with several options for add-ons as well as some sweets to complement. There are the usual flavors that one would expect from a tea spot, though I was suggested to get the mung bean tea as that flavor is not as common in NY. I had never heard of it, and figured I would give it a shot. The tea was good - mung bean is a legume, which I could tell as it was somewhat nutty. It wasn't overly sweet either which was great - overall smooth with a unique flavor. Service was good, and overall I had a great experience at 7 Leaves. I would definitely return the next time I'm in Houston, or wherever I find another location.

I'm just giving this place 5 stars because the drinks are always consistent and I LOVE the Assam Milk Tea. I prefers more tea forward milk tea and 7 Leaves does that. I always get the less sweet milk tea and it's perfect every time. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for my order even when there have been multiple people in front of me. The service is always spot on. No complaints there. And it's like most milk tea/boba places. Simple, nothing fancy. Ambiance is good.

I'm used to the tiny little storefront cafes of New York, so I'm still marveling at the sizeable space they have here. This chain of Vietnamese cafes is known for their milk teas, and they have a space that would make any Manhattan counterpart weep. I'm not one to ever really notice or comment on the parking situation, but it feels relevant here to say that parking is easy (it's located in a strip mall). But enough about the square footage, let's talk mung bean milk tea. I was told this is the best flavor they had here. It reminded me of adzuki bean, with a subtle earthiness to it that goes really well with desserts. The true joy of this place is being able to adjust both sweetness and ice. I'm glad I got to try this place that gives mung bean a moment in the spotlight.

I love 7 Leaves! What always stands out to me is the ambiance. It's the perfect environment for studying or getting some work done. The atmosphere is calm and conducive to focus, making it an ideal spot for anyone looking to be productive. In addition, the service is quick, allowing me to get my drink and settle in without any delay. Assam Milk Tea - The tea had the perfect amount of sweetness (I got the less sweet) and was incredibly creamy, reminiscent of Thai tea but with its own unique charm. Highly recommend this place for both the quality of their drinks and the inviting space they provide!

They have drinks that are off the menu which are a blend between different drinks. Ask the cashier about them! Think there is a tiger one which is a blend of Thai tea and coffee! I liked my strawberry hibiscus tea, but their easy ice still had a lot of ice and I felt like my drink got diluted quickly. I like to drink slowly and not take all the sugar at once. Plus the Texas summer heat doesn't help! My friend got a mixed drink between the strawberry hibiscus and sunset passion (which is all juice; no tea). It was also very good and probably what I would order next time!

Visited 7 Leaves Cafe for the first time on a trip to Houston from Virginia and had to come back here a few times during the trip because I've never tasted coffee like the House Coffee! Drinks were made perfect and very fast all times that I was here.

This is one of my favorite places to go study or for a boba date. Many people study here as well so it is a great place to come to. I stay here for prolonged periods of time when studying and I would recommend a jacket though since it does get cold. I usually get the Green Thai Tea and it is probably the best drink on the menu. I always get this when I come here and it never disappoints. It does run on the sweeter side so I would recommend lessening the sugar if you don't like things too sweet. My friend got the Assam Milk Tea and it is a black milk tea base that was okay but it was not as delicious as the Green Thai Tea to me. The menu is fairly limited though, but hopefully there will be a drink that suits your taste. If you like the Vietnamese dessert che, I would recommend the Mung Bean Milk Tea, which was delicious when I got it in the past. The bobaristas are super sweet and get drinks out in a quick manner. The establishment is pretty spacious with various seating styles to suit your needs. The higher tables will not have outlets though, but outlets are accessible throughout the establishment. There is also a printer available if needed. The Wi-Fi is stable, but it can be hit or miss because I've had times where the Wi-Fi would not work and had to use my own data. The restrooms may have a wait too depending on the day as well. I also appreciated how the music is played at a reasonable volume and is not too loud to not distract you while studying or having a conversation with someone. Today's visit consisted mostly of K-Pop.

I love 7 Leaves and this location is no different. The employees are friendly, store has a lot of seating, and the drinks are great! Ordered an iced Vietnamese coffee and taro milk tea for the road. Both are soooo good! I asked for less sweet but these were still pretty sweet compared to other locations I've been to. Not a big deal and I would definitely come back!

Their summer dream sickle is delicious! New favorite beverage from them. Service is always super fast at this location.

Wish the drinks were not premade with sugar so we can adjust the sugar levels :( Or yet have drinks w/no sugar to mix into premade drinks to make it less sweet

7 leaves has been a go to spot for me to get work done during the weekdays. I have many fond memories studying with friends here as it has the space to accomodate groups of people, free wifi, and outlets. I highly recommend getting the mung bean milk tea. It is consistently good, but it is a bit on the sweeter side if you order regular sugar. And one last note- make sure to bring a jacket because this location blasts their AC.

I sometimes get tired of the tea base so I come here for the mung bean drink. I like it both hot and cold. The service is really quick and I didn't have to wait too long for my order to come out! Keep in mind, this is a cashless business.

I love going here to study and get a refreshing drink! I've gotten the green Thai every time I've been here and it never fails, always so delicious! Music isn't too loud and there's lots of tables to do work too which is nice! Will definitely keep going here and highly recommend!

The japanese matcha tea tasted like water with a hint of matcha; we got it half sweet so that might have been a factor.. The oolong milk tea tasted like it was 70% cream and 30% tea; we also got this half sweet, might have been a factor as well but it shouldn't be..

I come here every week to study and the vibes are ALWAYS there. My two favorite drinks would be the asaam (is that how you spell it?) milk tea and matcha soy latte with easy sugar and easy ice. Service is fast and it's extremely cozy here!

Underwhelmed by this place. My husband ordered a sea cream tea jasmine, but it's super sweet. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to order with a lower sugar level bc the employee said that's not allowed here. They also don't seem well-versed with their own menu. I asked whether they had any non-caffeinated options and the employee said, "Yeah, the milk teas". I was a bit surprised, so I asked if she meant they used decaf tea for the milk teas (bc how else would milk teas be caffeine free?), and she looked at me like I had a second head and said no, it's bc they don't contain coffee. I gave up and decided not to order anything. The bathroom was quite messy and out of paper towels. On the plus side, they have ample parking and a nice seating area to work. Won't come back though since there are dozens of other better tea places in the same block.

Staff were polite and patient. The boba shop has sufficient seats for big groups. They have limited menu but sometimes less is more. Two thumbs up for the quality of their drinks. I had the Taro Milk Tea, and the Mung Bean Milk Tea. Both were so good. Sweetness level and flavor were perfect for both drinks. I could taste the mung bean, and the taro in each drink. I didn't bother about the topping because I thought that it would spoil the real taste of the drinks. Definitely would come back here again for the drinks.

They have a disclaimer that they are not responsible for some allergies (including nuts), but I have never had an issue with a nut allergy in 10+ times of going here. Credit card only. In my opinion, the best boba shop on Bellaire after being transplanted here from the bay area. 7 Leaves maintains an elegant, modern interior while serving delicious, flavorful tea. My go-to order is a large (+$0.75) oolong milk tea ($5.25) with honey boba ($+0.75) with less ice and light (50%) sugar. I wish they had a 25% sweetness option, but 50% is the only customization they have. Nevertheless, the result is a perfect milk tea with distinguishable oolong flavor. In the months I've gone here, the boba has always been consistent and with a perfect texture. The service is quick (with no line, drinks in less than 5 minutes). Every drink my friends have ordered here have been a hit. Their Vietnamese coffee is also strong and you can taste the house coffee as a sampler if you ask.

They offer samples, which is nice. I sampled the Vietnamese coffee and Taro milk tea. The Vietnamese coffee has a strong coffee flavor. They offer 50% or 75% sweetness and you can adjust the ice. The Taro milk tea is better than other taro milk teas I've had. It has a particular flavor. They said they use a mix of powder and actual taro root. Besides tea and coffee, they sell macarons. It's definitely a nice spot to hang out with some friends or family. Or just to study or do work. They have power outlets all over. I like that they open late. The wifi is very fast. I was able to stream Spotify and browse the web seamlessly. Note: they lock the restrooms and won't unlock it 30 minutes before closing time.

Great tasting drinks here. Prob my top 3 boba spots to go to! I love their "tiger" and "hulk" drinks (it's the secret menu drink with Thai tea/coffee and matcha soy/coffee). I highly recommend getting these drinks to try out! 7 leaves offer big cups for only about $6 only and that's hella cheap compared to every other boba places! Spacious in here enough for you to sit down and study with groups of friends. Y'all stop by here and enjoy the vibes! *the menu option for 7 leaves is very small/simple, if you're looking for huge variety of drinks to choose from, this won't be the spot. I can say that whatever they offer is pretty good though!

The service here is always super quick and the drinks always taste good. Though usually when I ask for less sweet the drinks still taste pretty sweet. The location itself is a large space so it's nice place to study in--though it can get pretty busy and the WiFi is hit or miss.

Compared to the other 7 Leaves Cafe spots, this one easily stands out. Not only is it in the heart of Bellaire Chinatown, but it's a semi-sprawling location that is perfect for some work / study time, group outings, and most importantly: delicious drinks. The young staff does a great job in keeping things moving as this is one of the brand's most popular locations. I appreciate how clean and well ventilated their space is. A clean bathroom, solid parking options, and good WiFi also make it really easy to enjoy this location. Bring a date, a lot of friends, or just yourself; there's really a bit of space for everyone. Drinks wise, their mung bean milk tea has been my go-to from the get go. It's like drinking chè (#1) but with all the added perks of sweetness with a heavy essence of the funky flavor. Their Vietnamese coffee is quite good and their the assam black tea is a favorite for just about everyone. Note: folks looking for typical flavors may not find it here. (#2) With so much milk tea / bubble in this part of the city, 7 Leaves is an easy choice for a quality beverage. _______________ (#1) The best kind of Vietnamese desserts, but this time in liquid form. (#2) That's a good thing. Trust me.

Been to this location many times, and all their drinks are pretty solid!!! I love getting their mung bean milk tea because it has just the right amount of sweetness to it. Today I got the Vietnamese coffee, and it was the pick me up I really needed since I was running on so little sleep haha. Definitely did the job of keeping me awake. It was pretty strong but light and sweet. It's not like the Vietnamese coffee I've tried at other places, where it's a lot richer and thicker. Still really good tho!! Service was super fast, and employees were kind. It's a great place to get some work or studying done. There's a parking lot surrounding the building, but it can get packed during busy hours since Bellaire is always poppin w all the food/dessert options around the area!

I haven't been to 7 Leaves in a while, but we stopped here after having dinner in Bellaire. Parking can be a little hectic if that shopping area is packed. We ordered a Mung Bean, Large Drink with 50% less sugar (that is as low as it goes). Service is quick, price is fine, and there are plenty of seating areas to hang out and relax.

We loved 7leaves in Los Angeles and glad one exists in Houston. Because we were in Houston and I knew I was going to go in on the barbeques, I decided to get a very healthy drink. I went with the Japanese Matcha Tea with Grass Jelly. It was refreshing and awesome, just like I remembered it in Los Angeles. They have a lot of good looking options. I will come back and try other drinks.

The macaroons were really good, the girl I had taking my order was really nice and recommended me a great drink, the place was a bit crowded but a good place to study and relax while having a good drink. Would recommend

Atmosphere: Good popping music with free Internet service and printer with suggested tip. Quality: Assum milk tea (not shown in photo) is pretty good. The oolong milk tea is average among the boba places around Chinatown. Their oolong tea is very flavorful and it does not taste super sweet. They don't use powder, which is really nice, unlike many other tapioca places. The black coffee with sea cream is average. It's not sweet, so if you like the full flavors of a coffee, this is the place to go. Jasmine Green Tea with Sea Foam Their sea foam isn't creamy. The green tea is okay. Matcha Soy Tea with Grass Jelly The beverage is flavorful of the soy, but the matcha seems to be lacking flavor. It doesn't have the full flavors of matcha, could be poor wuality Price: The prices are more expensive here than the surrounding area. Boba Game: their boba is not too sweet, so that's really nice, you can taste the flavor of the drink. Service: The staff here is always happy to help you out, and they let you sample their beverages if you ask.

First time trying out 7 leaves and mad that it took me so long to come. There is lots of open space which makes it perfect for studying and is quiet enough to get work done. There are also outlets and parking was easy. I ordered the sea cream jasmine tea with boba which is now in my top five drinks. The sea cream was thick and salty and paired nicely with the tea and I was very happy with the sweetness level. The boba was also very chewy and soft and was a great addition and elevated the drink. I will definitely be back to try out the other drinks!

Me and my friend came here andThis place has the best drinks and so many different drinks on the menu a lot of people come here to study or do their work it is also so quiet come here when it is raining I give it five stars

Love 7 leaves since I had it in CA a while back, so happy to find it in Houston on a trip. Love all their drinks! I couldn't remember what my husband and sister ordered but I got the mung bean milk tea and LOVED it. It was not overly sweet which is always a plus. You can taste the mung bean and it was just soooo good. I would definitely get it over and over again.

I happened to come across this on my Yelp yesterday, and I'm so glad that I did. The tea tasted so fresh, and it was so creamy. Also, the boba tasted so fresh, and it was sweet and the perfect consistency. I will be back, and I give this place a 10/10!

The store is very chilled and quiet. You can go and study. The staffs are very friendly and patient. I tried the mung bean milk tea, which was very good. The boba was kind of sweet. The price for each drink is around $7.

Everywhere I go that has 7Leaves, I will go out of my way to go for just one drink - the Mung Bean MilkTea. I've never encountered Mung Bean Milktea anywhere back home so it is a must for me when I'm nearby. I usually order it with custard or grass jelly. Their other drinks are good too; my boyfriend ordered a Thai Tea. They allow you to choose your ice and sugar levels, but I feel like regular for both works for the Mung Bean MilkTea. The café always looks clean with plenty of tables/chairs for you to stay and hang out.

One of my favorite places for drinks! Their house coffee and Vietnamese iced coffee is *chefs kiss* Quick service, small but VERY consistent menu (just how I like it), always clean and friendly service.

This review is meant for the Thai tea. Unfortunately I found it to be WAYYY too sweet and I should have asked for it to be less sweet. But since this was my first time trying the Thai tea here I didn't think to adjust the sweetness level. When I went to ask if I could get it remade to be less sweet, I was told that they couldn't because I already took a sip from my drink. I think this rule is a bit unfair because how am I supposed to know if the drink is too sweet or not without trying it first? Other drink places have gladly re-made drinks if it wasn't to the customer's liking, and when I used to work at a boba shop we did the same for customers. I waited a bit for the ice to melt in hopes that it would help with the sweetness, but even then it was still too sweet so I couldn't finish my drink. The flavor seemed good, but I would recommend half sweetness. The prices are pretty reasonable here compared to other boba places though, and I paid around $5 for my drink. Besides that, I thought the interior was really nice and service was fast, which is why I added another star to this review. There were a lot of people studying/working there and I noticed that there was a (free? or donation based?) printer that people could use which was really cool! Wifi was also fast. I have tried other drinks from 7 leaves and my favorite is the Sea Cream Jasmine Tea. I should have just ordered that but I made the mistake of straying from my usual order today unfortunately.

Service was nice and quick. The inside was very cozy and clean... looked like a good place to hang out or study. I ordered a large Sea Cream Jasmine Tea with Crystal Boba ($4.80 + $0.75 for large size + $0.60 for the Crystal Boba). The drink was so delicious! The mixture of sea cream and jasmine tea created a unique flavor that was not overly sweet. For a boba drink these days, the price was not bad at all, especially for a large drink. I would definitely come back to this 7 Leaves Cafe to get the same drink whenever I'm in the area for vacation!

I've seen everyone loves coming to 7 Leaves Cafe that I had to try for myself! We ordered a Vietnamese Coffee($4) it's a strong coffee that taste evenly sweet. I'm not a Coffee person yet I felt like being one so I ordered a Sea Cream Black Coffee($4)!!! I was scared of how strong/deep the coffee might've been but the Sea Cream made it sweet enough for me to kill the entire drink! by far my fav! Also ordered a Japanese Matcha Tea with Custard Pudding($4.60) if you love matcha this this one! And if you like your Fruity drinks you'd also enjoy the Sunset Passion($4) very refreshing, you can taste the passion fruit!

Tried the roasted oolong milk tea and the taro milk tea. Both were ordered at 50% sweetness, but they were still a bit sweet. I liked that they didn't add purple food coloring to the taro! That always makes me suspicious when I see a bright or deeply colored taro drink. I've had milk teas from other shops where the tea is the star of the drink and the milk helps to soften and smooth out the tea. I felt their teas were too milky for my taste.

I've been wanting to try this place and I was not disappointed. They let you sample stuff! We sampled summer mint and mung bean milk tea. You can't change the sweetness on the summer mint, but you can on the mung bean. I got the mung bean milk tea 75%, but I think I'll try 50% next time. The drinks are really sweet, but that's ok. The grass jelly balances the sweetness a little. I like my drink a lot and service was great. Will prob come back on my next Houston trip.

Great drinks, a bit on the expensive side but that could just be a function of inflation :) Location was convenient, service was fast, and ambiance was chill. What's not to like?

My husband and I have tried this place once before after eating at Sinh Sinh across the lot. The place inside is really nice, rustic, modern. A lot of students come here to do computer work and read it seems. The menu selection isn't the largest, neither is the food, they have macaroons is an array of flavors. This trip we tried Japanese Matcha Soy Tea & Sea Cream Black. My husband is lactose intolerant so his selection was pretty limited. Other places offer lactaid substitute on all drinks but here they come pre mixed. The coffee I ordered had a nice rich flavor, my husband's was really smooth, I prefer oat milk with matcha than soy milk though.

I usually go to Long Coffee (aka previously named Boba Zone) for my coffee/tea fix. But, I wanted to try a new spot, and 7 Leaves popped up with good reviews. They only have takeout. So, no dining in. The staff was wearing masks and there's plexiglass dividing the staff and customers. A lot of the reviews mentioned their house coffee. So, I had to order this drink. I asked for house coffee with milk and an extra espresso shot, since I didn't know if they'd make the coffee strong enough without it. It comes with this sea salt foam cream on top. I forgot to ask for my drink to be less sweet. Next time, I'll have to order it 50% sweet. Anyway, despite how sweet my drink was, it was absolutely delicious. The house coffee was brimming with aromatic espresso flavor, and it was a very smooth drink. I will have to say I'd subtract the extra espresso shot, since I was wired for the rest of the day. I would also remember to make it less cavity sweet. Otherwise, I think this is my new go to spot for coffee drinks in Chinatown.

Their mung bean drink is delicious. It's refreshing and exactly what I needed on a hot day. I get it less sweet with some jelly. It's my go to beverage. I like that we can order it on their app and earn rewards.

I've tried a lot of Asian tea/coffee/boba joints, too many to count. While some stores have fancier drinks from A-Z, if you are looking for an excellent/no frills tea & coffee place 7 Leaves is the way to go. As a very picky Thai Tea drinker...to date 7 Leaves is the best I've had. I don't even know why I still bother to try other places Thai Tea. The House coffee is also excellent! Again, if you're looking for a no frills menu, quality tea and coffee, this is the place to go!

Yum! House ice coffee is amazing! Fast and friendly service with the mobile app. Great place to study too
