One of the best milktea places in Manila. I love the combination of brown sugar + milktea that made it's taste so special. The waiting time is normal around 5mins. Service crew are nice and friendly. The place looks clean and well maintained. There location is not in the usual high-street area which is somehow better given that the amount of people queuing there will be much worst. All in all it's a must try.

Tried the brown sugar boba milk tea at "Alishan at the alley". I suggest to order it with zero or less sugar because the boba itself is sweet already. I like the milk tea taste and the boba is cooked just right. The place is like a side street booth only. Will try the other drinks soon like the cheese milktea and fruit tea

They were quick, nonetheless, to replace the drinks. The tea is good. The pearls are soft, chewy and with the right sweetness. We ordered the Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea and the variant with the Cheese Brulee. For its price, it's qu…

We went there shortly after lunch, on a midweek. Still, there was a queue, and waiting time is around 25minutes just to get to the front of the counter. All in all, it will take you 40 mins up to an hour to get your drink. I got the brown sugar pearl milk tea with cheese brulee variant. I found it better tasting than the other well known milk tea place, thanks to the cheese.
