This is a place that is famous for its milk tea with pearls (boba). There are different types of tea that is available but try the standard milk tea with pearls, which is sweetened black tea with milk and dark gummy balls made of tapioca (which may be made from yam), called "pearls" or "boba". The pearls are quite large and you need to drink the tea with a wide straw. I like Fantasia because the tea is actually brewed (as opposed to some other places that use powder) so that you can actually taste the tea and they don't overly sweeten the tea. Some find the presence of boba strange, especially in a drink, but I like the chewiness and sweetness of the pearls.

There are other types of drinks with tea or fruit so you can easily find something that suits your taste or cravings. They also serve shaved ice, and while the options are somewhat limited, the standards such as red bean are available. The shaved ice is decent, not as fluffy as some other places, but it will do the trick.

It's also a good place to hang out as there are tables and chairs outside in the large patio and free wifi is available.
