Stopped by for a drink and have to say it’s a cute little shop. I had the collaboration drink and it tastes great. Love the coconut mango flavor. Staff were nice as well. Drink came out quickly as well. Would recommend stopping when in the area.

Cute little store and nice service. Even though the drinks are a bit overpriced IMO And Alley went downhill over the last years with their drinks. The milktea tastes relatively bland and boring. Their White Peach Oolong was not enjoyable at all - too strong and bitter tea flavor (and not the good kind). Not sure if leaving the tea bag in is such a good idea either…

First time here with a friend for the first time and it was a cute little spot. The service was quick since we were there before their evening rush. I had the passion fruit green tea and it was pretty good, a lot of pearls and jelly and was only available in a large size. It was a bit on the pricier side in comparison to what I'm used to paying for a similar drink at other bubble tea cafes, but it was good and curbed the craving.

Cute little shop with yummy bubble tea! The gentlemen working was super friendly and helpful, as this was my first time trying The Alley. I decided on the most popular order, which was the No. 9. The drink was really good! I will definitely be back to try other menu items. The shop itself is small, but has plenty of indoor seating. It was clean and well maintained with straws and napkins. They also had a wide variety of menu items, including some fun collabs.

The ambience is nice with a cute little shop in a busy market vibes. The staff was sweet too. The boba itself was very mid. I got the classic milk tea and it was extremely watered down. Almost felt like I was having flavored water with boba.

I asked for a brown sugar milk tea. They could do it with deerioca without the tea. Assuming that was something similar to tea, as I saw there were pictures of what looked like it, I said sure. I just got milk with pearls. Unsweetened. For 6.50$. How can you look someone in the eye and sell them 6.50$ milk. Are we serious. And the pearls were way too sweet. Why not suggest something actually similar, like Royal Milk Tea which looks like brown sugar milk tea.

Love their signature series bubble tea. M Cannot customize the sugar levels for it but the softness of the boba and the brown sugar has definitely stood out for me amongst the other offerings in the area. The store also has a nice layout and has limited options on their menu in comparison but it’s one of those places where less is more Definitely enjoy it and it’s a good treat drink (It is not overall sweet, just the right amount)

This place is amazing. I know they have good drinks but I never knew it was this good. Love both milk tea and strawberry tea with jelly sinkers. Unique, right balance, and just felt good overall. Will be back for sure.
