General Info
Tucked into a busy stretch of Winnipeg, Khab Tapioca - Empress at 705 Empress St #3, Winnipeg, MB R3G 3P6, Canada, is a bubble tea store that feels both relaxed and lively the moment you walk in. The space is easy to access thanks to its wheelchair accessible entrance, and the atmosphere immediately sets the tone for a casual stop-whether you’re meeting friends or just grabbing a drink while exploring nearby spots.
On my first visit, the menu caught my attention right away. While the shop focuses on bubble tea, what stands out is the great tea selection that gives regulars plenty to come back for. Among all the drinks, the Thai Milk Tea quickly becomes the highlight. The color alone is inviting-rich orange with a creamy finish-and the flavor balances sweetness and strong tea notes surprisingly well. Each sip feels smooth and refreshing, making it easy to understand why it’s often mentioned in reviews from regular customers.
Ordering is straightforward and relaxed. The counter staff handle both quick takeaway orders and customers who want to stay awhile. Thanks to NFC mobile payments, the checkout process is quick and convenient, especially for visitors who prefer contactless options. Small details like this make the experience smoother and more modern compared with many typical tea shops.
Another thing I appreciated about Khab Tapioca - Empress is how comfortable the onsite services feel for people who want to sit down and enjoy their drinks. The dine-in area is simple but welcoming, which encourages customers to slow down, chat, and enjoy the moment. It’s the kind of spot where a drink turns into a longer hangout, especially when the tea is this good.
The menu layout also makes it easy to explore different drinks without feeling overwhelmed. Still, the Thai Milk Tea remains the standout choice for many first-time visitors. The drink has a rich aroma, a creamy texture, and a sweetness that doesn’t overpower the tea itself. When paired with chewy tapioca pearls, it becomes a comforting treat that’s both satisfying and refreshing.
From the convenient location on Empress Street to the welcoming service style, Khab Tapioca - Empress offers a casual yet enjoyable bubble tea experience. The combination of a thoughtful menu, accessible features, and a standout Thai Milk Tea gives this Winnipeg spot a strong reputation among locals looking for quality drinks and a relaxed place to unwind.
