Best of the best. Excellent tea shop in town. They using nice quality tea leaves to make their drink. A must try shop.

Came here after being referred to by a friend, and we’re so glad we came! They are known for their high quality tea. Because of that it’s about $10 for a 12 oz drink….but it really is worth a try. The quality is so delicious and despite it being heavily tea focused, their drinks have the perfect amount of sweetness. And their boba is perfectly cooked and sweetened. Their salt foam is so delicious too and really just elevates their drinks. Definitely worth the try and a place to treat yourself from time to time. The staff were also friendly and the interior is a nice place if you wanted to catch up with a friend or get some work done. - my favorite thing about this place is the free boba holder you get with your drink!

Chi Cha is such a great boba spot! I’m so glad we finally have one in Chicago. I first tried Chi Cha during a trip to Seattle and made it a point to visit every time I was there for work, so it’s exciting to now have a location much closer in Chinatown. The staff is always friendly, and the shop itself is beautifully designed. They have a great selection of drinks and boba options. I was in Chicago for a weekend trip and ended up stopping by twice because I enjoyed it so much. My go-to orders are the Boba Milk Tea and the Honey Green Tea, both are consistently delicious. I even ordered extra drinks to bring back home to Cleveland. Definitely worth a visit if you’re a boba lover!

Drinks are good not too sweet. Boba is also good, soft with chewy texture. The place is nice and clean but don’t only small area for dining. They are quite busy. We are waiting for at least 10 mins. The good thing is they freshly brew your tea every single cup! This is why their quality of the drinks are better than others. The price is quite expensive. Each drink is around $10 after tax.

The tea tasting here was such a wonderful experience! The staff explained everything clearly, and I really appreciated being able to choose the teas myself and sample them. It made the experience feel more personal and special. The drinks are absolutely delicious. They have a deep, rich flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. The boba is high quality and perfectly textured. It’s a little on the pricey side, but it’s definitely worth it. I’ll be coming back again!
