I went to Eastea today and bought the Rose Oolong Milk Tea and the sweet potato skewers. They are having a promotion of buy one and get one for free for the sweet potato skewers, so I got one spicy one and one non spicy one. This is authentic Chinese street food and I liked the flavour. I also liked the tea flavour, it has met my expectations for a good milk tea. You can also add cheese foam or cream on top for extra money.

I ordered the Crinkle-Cut Fries and the Cheese Foam Matcha Latte, and both were excellent! The fries were hot, crispy, and perfectly seasoned, and the texture was really satisfying. The Cheese Foam Matcha Latte was even better than I expected—the matcha flavor was rich and smooth, and the cheese foam added a creamy, delicious layer on top. Great quality and great taste. I’ll definitely come back again!

Love their pure tea milk tea so so much that I’ve tried most of the flavours The tea is strong and nicely infused with floral notes. The standard sweetness is just right, not too sweet, very light and creamy at the same time. But if you have a mild taste like me, I would always go for Less Sugar or even Half Sugar. Cream topping is nice, too Can’t resist the snacks Have tried the chicken strips, squid tentacles, chicken skin and beef skewers - they’re too good to be true. I always go for spicy flavour, actually it’s not that spicy, just right, but you can always let the staff know if you want it more spicy. Plus the prices are affordable, especially when the store is in Rundle Mall. Last but not least, the staff members are so nice and friendly, always serving with a smile Please keep up the good work guys, you got a loyal customer here

A nice experience, it had the same feel of the tea stores I would go to when I’m in China, with the aesthetic, taste and vibe. The staff are really friendly and definitely enjoy their jobs. I came on a Tuesday afternoon! The prices are affordable, and Eastea drinks are paired nicely with their collab store’s menu. (GFC Godfather Fried Chuan). Basically just pairing their milk teas with GFC’s spicy fried menu :p Would come again, will come again! It’s just super busy because they just opened, keep that in mind

This is a nice bubble tea shop in Rundle, Adelaide. The staff are friendly, but communication could be improved a little bit. The milk tea tastes really good, especially the cream topping – it’s delicious and not too sweet. I also tried the grilled squid, which was tasty, and the prices are quite reasonable. Overall, a good spot to grab drinks and snacks.
