Review from Ed U.
This is the type of closet-size shop you would probably find in an alleyway off the Ginza. Man, it's so small (see photos). So small that if it was featured on an episode of HGTV's "House Hunters", the white-trash wife in the ill-fitting tanktop would say, "But Buford, how am I gonna fit all my bras in there?" Jamie W. and I barely noticed it on the way back to our hotel room since all the crowds were hovering around the Japa Dog stand on the opposite corner.
You can sushi bento boxes (...just where they make them, I haven't a clue because you would have to be a contortionist to do it in there)...but we went for the C$3.75 Bubble Tea as a refresher after a day among the fishes at the aquarium. Nothing outstanding or offensive is served here, just a Quickly-level concoction with the extra-large jelly pearls that made sucking a respiratory challenge. There are 16 different milk teas and 11 green teas. How do those two ladies fit all that in there? The better question is how do the two ladies fit in there without driving each other crazy.
BUBBLE TEA - 3 stars...hits the spot after a day with the fishies
AMBIANCE - 2 stars...uhhh, it's a closet
SERVICE - 3 stars...the ladies are indeed polite
TOTAL - 3 stars...blink and y--...oh, you catch my driftListed in: Vancouver, Victoria, Veni,…

Review from Claudia L.

In a rush to grab some mediocre BBT (bubble tea) or sushi shipped in from Bread Garden? You've found the right place.
It took me forever to find the listing on Yelp beacuse I had no idea their core competence was sushi (from Bread Garden nonetheless). What has the world come to? Will Hon's soon manufacture the perfect baguette and Tim Horton's pad thai? I'm baffled and somewhat offended.
You may have passed by this place (between Sutton Place Hotel and the walk-through TD machine on the corner of Burrard and Robson) and glanced at the BBT sign outside and am likely thinking "oh, THAT'S what this place is called?"
I will admit though that the lady behind the counter who runs the place (which pretty much consists of the counter and a fridge) makes a mean old fashioned milk BBT - nice and strong just the way I like it.
I wonder what the owners were thinking when they opened this place ...
"People love BBT and sushi so we'll sell both AND we'll cut costs by renting an area of five square feet. We can make it the first-ever BBT and sushi take out - brilliant!"
