Gong Cha in Annandale

A lot of good options. I ordered the peach lychee drink and it was soo good. Literally tastes like those jelly cups of childhood. I also got a taste of the brown sugar milk, strawberry milk, lychee oolong,  and purple potato milk teas and they were all very good. Doesn't seem like you can't go too wrong here.

One of the many bubble tea chains to crawl itself into the Annandale area, Gong Cha sits in a small corner of a parking lot extended off of the Chicken Pollo sign I've always passed and never gone to. The place itself isn't the biggest, but if you want to just grab a milk tea then this is the place to go to. I will say I don't particularly enjoy the fruit beverages or normal teas, but milk tea (brown sugar in particular) here is spectacular. They also handle group orders pretty well - I came here with around 10 orders and told them to take their time since I came without calling in before. They still got them out pretty quickly. That being said, when placing the orders they said they didn't have a lot of the ingredients for some of them, particularly chocolate-based drinks and toppings. Still, the brown sugar milk tea here is good enough to compensate! (I'd personally recommend less sugar since it's still just as flavorful with less sugar)

Huge fan of Gong Cha and their drinks. I've tried a variety of their drinks but keep going back to their yogurt series!! My favorite is the peach - definitely get less sugar or it'll be too sweet. It's light, fruity and is pretty much the perfect summer drink. Do note that they do use real milk in their milk teas (no substitutes!) for those of you who are lactose sensitive. The last time I was in, I tried the egg waffle! Not sure if it's available in all locations, or just this one, but I was pleasantly surprised. A friend and I shared, and we agreed that it was definitely enough for two. We chose the original flavor for the waffle, but it also does come in chocolate and matcha! You can choose for the waffle to come plain or with ice cream. Not a bad price(around $6) for a shared dessert.
