Bubble Queen is our personal favorite place to get bubble tea. This place definitely has the mango cubes slush in town.
What we love about this place - their drinks are mainly made with fresh ingredients (not the artificial powder).
The price is a little pricier than their competitors, however you get what you pay for.
We definitely recommend this place!
THE MANGO MOCHI BUBBLE WAFFLE IS AMAZING. All caps mandatory! Staff is the nicest- they remember their regulars and it is charming ❤ Ordered the Bueno chocolate bbt with pearls and my partner ordered the papaya slush with pearls. I think they put a whole Bueno bar in there?! And maybe even a whole small papaya?!? I watched her scoop a fresh papaya and there was definitely at least half the fruit in there. The best bubble tea place around. We drive out from Port Coquitlam to get our fix here.
This was the first time we tried the bubble drinks here. I ordered the matcha milk drink with coconut jelly and my husband ordered the ferrero rocher drink with coconut jelly. His drink also had one ferrero rocher and whipped cream on top of his drink. The matcha was good, not too sweet. My husband really liked his drink. The owner was very pleasant and friendly to talk to. She gave us the waffle to try. After talking to the owner, we found out this was the second store she owned and had been operating at Vancouver location for 3 years. We definitely would come back to try other drinks. Excellent customer service and awesome variety of drinks which are very different from other bubble drinks places that I had tried.
One of the best pairings in the world of Asian cafe food has got to be a bubble tea drink and a bubble waffle. In Metro Vancouver, there is a place that does both well and their name suggests that they are the finest of them all. Bubble Queen has two locations in Richmond and Vancouver and has an extensive menu of bubble tea and bubble waffles. Depending on the seasonality, they use fresh fruit like mango and taro in their offerings.
I went to Bubble Queen's small Oak Street location on a Monday afternoon. The store wasn't too busy and the service was fairly fast. Bubble Queen has a huge variety of flavours and drink types to choose from as well. I got the ferrero rocher bubble tea and was pleasantly surprised. The drink was sweet but not overwhelmingly sweet, and the taste of the ferrero rocher was strangely good. Overall it was a great experience and I'd come again.
The drinks and waffle were alright. Though I was on break at work so I was kind of tight on time and the waffles did take longer than expected to make. I got the mango mochi bubble waffle, and orange kitkat bbt with vanilla icecream, while my friend got the mango slush. He did note that the mango slush tasted creamier than normal, but tasted like the mangoes were really fresh. Would I come again? Maybe if someone asked, but not by myself.
I really like this place. I work around this area and I usually order takeout through the phone. Their mango are really fresh. Hours is great sometimes I can even drop by early morning at 8am for bbt when I'm craving.
well then another bubble queen location, and apparently this place is also packed, and i ordered their signature mango, and it tasted definitely alright, really sweet though i can see people liking it because of the sweetness and extreme mango flavour. but for me i'm just okay but definitely something different, and something that i'm not really accustomed yet. overall definitely alright place to get your sweet tooth craving satisfied. the other drink the chocolate chips are also sweet as well.
Store is closed from health inspection notice and "renovations". No indication of when it will be reopened. 😕 noooo. I guess bubble tea will have to wait
Update: They have reopened and always packed full of people!
We have recently moved to the VGH area and always drive by Oak and 16th. One day, we noticed that Esquire Coffee at that corner became Bubble Queen! We are so happy! If you haven’t checked out our post on Bubble Queen in Richmond or been there yourself, you wouldn’t know how great this place is! Their specialty drinks are candy bar slush or fresh mango slush!
