    If you are cruising along Kapiolani Blvd by The Original Pancake House, have a little treat and relaxation at Cheese Tea. The menu of variety of drinks is a wonderful selection. The place is just so cute with decorations. You have to keep your eye open while walking since the place is small to find. Great for families and young teens or adults.

    I've tried a lot of boba, but Cheese Tea is my absolute favorite! The best. Cute, quiet, relaxing environment. Will be spending more money here for sure.

    The staff was very friendly and the drinks were so good. I had a mango smoothie with cheese foam and my husband had matcha with boba. Both were very good. Limited parking.

    Update! I've tried all the teas here and made a tier list and they're all amazing! Love this place, I go usually every Tuesday and have tasted the entire menu at their Kapahulu store. The milk tea and pure teas are great if you're looking for a light drink, and the smoothies and are great if you're looking for a filling drink. Everything tastes super fresh and the staff is amazing. My only critic would be about that there's a few drink that are often out of stock, so be sure to pick a second option just in case.

    I love this place and go whenever I’m in the area. All the drinks I’ve gotten are great, they’ve got a lot of cool flavors, AC, free wifi, sooo many cute sitting areas (they have mini couches), and easy access to outlets. The staff are also very polite. I really don’t understand how this place isn’t more busy.

    I ordered a fruit smoothie and it was perfect! There are tons of milk tea and fruit tea options. Great spot to hang out with colorful decoration.

    Cute interior. Liked the HK Milk Tea, strong tea flavor and not too sweet. Seating available

    Great little tea shop with friendly service. Good selection of tea. You can add the cheese cap to any tea to spruce it up. Good tasting tea.

    Friendly staff. Drinks are yummy. Novelty, their cafe is cat themed and you can get drinks with cheese in. Cups decent and can be kept and reused. Merchandise for sale. I paid $5.76 for my pineapple green Tea.

    This is one of the best tea shops in town. Always fresh a d great customer service. Fresh fruit Jasmin tea is a must try.

    The fruit milks are refreshing, and the matcha plant tea hits the spot for matcha lovers. The brown sugar boba with cheese was honestly ok though, but the staff is really nice, and drinks come out fast. Will definitely be coming back!

    Cheese Cafe is perfect for a refreshing drink, place to do your homework (free wifi), soft music, and if you are looking for a very cute cat themed cafe. The drink that I got was the limited Snow Sakura Latte, my other friend got the Passion Fruit Green Tea, and my other friend got the Banana Blueberry Smoothie. The Snow Sakura Latte actually tasted like Sakura and was delicious. The Passion Fruit Green Tea and Banana Blueberry Smoothie were both very refreshing. Staff was very nice and the drinks range from $3-6 and all have beautiful designs with a cute reusable cup to go.

    We asked for suggestions to try the cheese foam topping, and were recommended either the Creamy Cake Milk Tea with added cheese or Cheesy Brulee Milk Tea - so we got both! The cheese foam is like a salty, foamy cream cheese. Super good and wasn't weird to us at all! It compliments the sweet drink well. The cake drink really tastes like cake batter! Super sweet and like a dessert! The Brulee is more like a black milk tea, not as sweet but sweet enough. We added boba to both and it was some of the best boba we've had! Warm and sweet, perfect texture. We're not used to it warm, but we loved it. We'll definitely be back for the cheese tea and to try the other teas that looked really good!

    The teas were really good! The store itself is really cute and a nice ambiance. However my only problem was the prices. I got the passion yakult drink and it costed $6.75 which I thought was a bit overpriced, but other than that it was really good! They do validate for parking but I wouldnt pay for the parking just to go to this place. If I was in the area then I would visit. Edit: 4/22/2019 I decided to update my review because I think it should be updated. I came back here with my friend a couple of times and decided to get a different drink, the Passion Fruit Green Tea, and man did it change my mind about this place. It's a bit cheaper, plus they add a bunch of sliced fruit in it making it taste even more delicious! Changing from 4 stars to 5 stars because the price was worth the drink :)
