Tea Time

I stopped by the Tea Time downtown location next to Qdoba. I originally wanted an herbal tea, but they didn’t have any, so I went with one of their lemonade drinks. Even though there were several people ahead of me, my order came out quickly. I tried the kiwi popping boba, which was refreshing and tasty. My husband asked the cashier for their favorite drink and ended up enjoying his too. The only downside is that the location is pretty small and there aren’t many places to sit. Overall, a good spot for a quick drink, but not the best if you’re looking to hang out for a while.

Whenever I fly down with my sister to the Mayo Clinic, we make it a point to stop at Tea Time—usually twice a day during our whole trip! My go-to drink is the Black Sugar Milk Tea with tapioca pearls and added coconut—it’s the perfect treat. My sister loves the honeydew or mango with pearls, and both are always delicious. If they ever opened a location in St. Joseph, MO or Maryville, MO, it would be a huge hit—we’d be there daily! Highly recommend to anyone who loves fresh, flavorful bubble tea.

Super accommodating staff. This location has an entry both from the street and from inside the Kahler Grand Hotel. The only downside for me was that they didn't have crystal Bobas, but my Thai Tea was still very tasty!

Tea time always has great bubble teas. The staff are super friendly and always greet you with smiles on their faces. They're patient with you as you decide what you would want to order and give recommendations if you cannot decide. Worth a try when you're in the area.

So fast and great service! Super cute for a quick drink!
