Taichi Bubble Tea - New Haven

I was visiting Yale university and stayed nearby. I wanted to eat something healthy and found this place. Walked in and I was totally happy with the atmosphere. Very clean, spacious and so much of options to choose from. I got the sushi burrito and it was amazing. Perfectly made and tasted so good. It was wrapped very well and the tea was great too. Addition to that, you have the chance to spin the wheel (if your purchase is over $25 or more) and get some prizes. I got a nice keychain which I was already planning to buy. The customer service was great and they were very patient though I took my time to order it. Will definitely visit this place again. Overall, it's a great place if you wanted a quick healthy bite.

The bubble tea is good but MY GOD DO THEY NEED TO LOWER THE VOLUME OF THE MUSIC. Jesus IT IS TOO LOUD! AND definitely PLAY DIFFERENT MUSIC. Just quiet modern music so I can actually have a conversation please

The owner/staffs are friendly and welcome. The place is cozy. The drinks and foods taste good. They will accomodate the best as you want. I will always be back here. Recommended!!

When I order here, it’s almost always just getting a poke bowl, and I order on Snackpass and pick it up like 5-10 minutes later. The fish is always fresh and tasty, and they REALLY pack in the vegetables/toppings on your bowl. Also they don’t charge extra for avocado! The only thing is that they just give you one scoop of rice, it’s not as much rice as other poke places, but you can order extra rice (I usually do because I love the rice, but it’s definitely already a full meal without it) Service is always fast. I have tried the bubble tea, the taro tea was a little too sweet for me when I got it but I think there’s options now to cut back the sweetness, and when I get a free milk tea reward (from ordering 10x via Snackpass) I get it 50% sweet and it’s very good. Definitely a lunch go-to for me.

Great place to work or study as they offer free Wi-Fi at decent speed. The complete absence of dairy free dessert is upsetting. I found the tea way too sweet for my liking (I had a hot matcha one). Also, I would’ve appreciated some small salty bites, as it was either ultra sweet stuff or a big bowl of onoodles/sushi. A small temaki or dumplings for example would be nice and easy enough. Edit: I just had the worst drink of my entire life here. It was the dragona coffee. I genuinely think there was something rotten in it, something went bad for sure. I was so shocked and nauseous that I didn’t even complain, just threw the entire 9 dollar glass in the trash. Never again ordering a single drink.
