Leisure Tea Coffee - Richmond

Fantastic and amazing coffee, shaved ice and other deserts. Also popcorn chicken!

A big group of us had a delicious dessert set with teas! Tom and the staff were lovely; they attended to all of our needs, and we had an amazing time!

Leisure Tea Coffee is a cozy intricately place to get authentic Taiwanese style tea and desserts, with some nice modern twists.<br/ <br/ The ambiance is rustic and quaint that will bring you nostalgic feel.<br/ <br/ We ordered caramel pudding shaved ice with added grass jelly. We got a decent sized pudding with liquid caramel sauce drizzled over and sweet condensed milk on top of it.<br/ <br/ The price was extremely reasonable for the portions.

Super cute cafe for those long catch up chats or late night talks. It 's one of the few that opens late until midnight (and 12:30am on Fridays/Saturdays). Once inside, it 's a unique feeling because of the decor and different from typical BBT places you 'll know what I mean once you check it out! The decor is actually one of the reasons I like this place, bonus points!<br/ <br/ I 'm not Taiwanese, but to me, their snacks and desserts taste authentic. My favourite thing to get is the 'sweet soups ' you can get them hot or cold. It comes in a mug with a spoon and you can customize it by adding your favourite items, like bubble tea but much more variety! My favourites to add include taro chunks, tofu pudding, kidney beans, and taro and sweet potato balls a very Taiwanese dessert! <br/ <br/ The only downside about Leisure Tea is that if you want a full on meal, they don 't really have that. The closest thing is probably sandwiches that they serve. But definitely one of my favourite places to stop by for snacks and chats.

Food: Got the fried chicken and it was an okay dish. Very typical salt and pepper dressing, not as crispy but may be just the style. Bubble tea is just like anywhere else really. <br/ <br/ Ambience: Very cute decor!! Gives a very homie, cottage feel with the wood and everything. <br/ <br/ Price!!: Affordable but the bubble tea in my opinion is a little overpriced but you do get the service. Food prices are average, nothing too worth your money but not a total rip off.
