Royaltea Hillcrest Mall - Richmond Hill

With the new Ontario lockdown in place, I have been looking for more new restaurants and cafes that I haven't tried before. I decided to try Royaltea so I ordered from Ubereats. I ordered the milk tea with tapioca in a bear bottle and original bubble waffle. The staff called me and told me they were sold out of bubble waffle and offered me to choose a drink instead so I got a chocolate mousse drink. The bear bottle was super cute, but the tapioca is harder to drink since they were stuck to the bottom of the bear and the straw isn't long enough to reach the bottom. The milk tea flavour is also not as strong as other places, but it isn't bad. Overall, the bubble tea is ok. For the price, I would not get it again, but it was worth a try for the cute bottles.

Pretty cool place. Girlfriend took me here for the first time today. Got all your OG bubble tea flavours but they have the option to put them into cool cups! Teddy bears and light bulbs to be exact! Def a really cool idea. Loved every min of it !

This drink was really darn good! It has a perfect level of sweetness and the watermelon combines so well with the green tea. I love the mousse after it's shaken in the drink. Wish it could always be the special price!

The first time we went, it was fantastic! I actually visited almost every day. However, after a week, the tapioca wasn't cooked properly. I understood, though, since it was close to closing time. But my friend insisted we try again, and I'm glad we did because it turned out to be great!

The prices are slightly higher compared to similar places like Machi Machi, so it may not be my go-to spot all the time, but it's a great option for a quick treat when you're in the area. I'm also curious to try their light drinks, although I wonder if those are just a marketing gimmick. Overall, I had a positive experience at Royaltea!
