Bubblemania Cafe

Super busy at 9pm. Although the place is famous for its drinks (i.e. bubble tea, smoothie etc.), the surprise came from the seafood fried rice, which is usually the dish I least likely order. The chef was very generous and put lots of baby shrimps, eggs and squid. The rice was not sticky at all and fully absorbed the flavour from all the other ingredients. Very tasty! Chicken wings were freshly fried. Crispy skin, tender meat, standard seasoning, but nothing more special. Good choice for snack.

Arrived at 11pm with a craving. Had the house special fried rice and 10 lemon pepper wings that were on special for dine in. Also ordered the individual pots of tea. Had the buddha blend and chrysanthemum. The buddha blend was one of the best teas I’ve had in my entire life. Be careful to blow out the candle warming your tea up or it’ll turn the tea bitter from oversteeping, or maybe that couldn’t have been prevented either way. Food was excellent. Service was perfect. Prices most reasonable. It was really really loud though. Sound bounces off the walls and the music was turned up high. May have been because it was the late night crowd. Probably they during the day or order take away.

I like that this place is open late, it is often really busy. I haven’t tried the food but the bubble tea and potted teas are really good… The restaurant always smells like fish, I have the nose of a dog, but it sometimes makes me feel ill. They need better ventilation. Large selection of drinks and snacks. There is usually parking out front which is good. Loud so don’t go on a date here if you wanna hear each other speak. They also run out of pearls usually by 10pm so go early!

Man, I remember coming here when it first opened – back in high school and university when smoking was legal in restaurants. This place use to be a dive, and where the cool Asians hang out. Now, as these cool Asians grow older, the restaurant has changed to be more open and kid-friendly. The bubble tea is always good here and so are their wing flavours. Service is always good for the most part.

Large environment that can accommodate large parties but gets packed really fast. Service is good. They check on you often. Pricing is decent. We went on a Friday and was able to get wings for 63 cents. Garlic Parmesan wings was good. It’s a dry rub that’s not too salty or bland. Korean hot wings were not that spicy. It does get a bit sticky due to the sugar that’s in the sauce mix. Overall good flavor that’s a mix of spicy and sweet. Braised pork belly was bland. Very strong flavor and odor of herbs that it was cooked in. Fried rice was good. Comes with Chinese sausage and shrimp. Udon was good. I’m not a big fan of bean sprout so it was a bit too much in my opinion but the flavor of the dish was good. Garlic parm fries tasted like the wings except with fries. Bubble tea: I got the lonely which is passion fruit and mango slush with vanilla ice cream. I got it with boba which was a mistake because the slush started hardening the boba. Avocado mango with pudding: had a rich creamy taste from the avocado and was sweet with the mango. One of the best smoothies I’ve had. I heard they run out often.

This is my fourth time here, I’m from out of town and every time I visit, I ALWAYS have a good experience. We come here for the wings and special fried rice. It’s always cooked perfect, flavour is on point and service is FAST! When I say FAST, I mean it. Food comes out, what feels like 5 mins after you order! My go-to BBT order is the almond black sesame milk tea. I ask for cold 25% sugar. Really good. It can get pretty loud in the restaurant, so if you’re looking for a nice sit-down-and-talk kind of atmosphere you should avoid this place. Other than that, the food was good, service was fast and might I add, prices are reasonably cheap! Update Oct 22/19 Haven’t been here since January of this year. But I believe it my review reflects it’s current quality and serv
