Rari-Tea Cafe YEG

Cute atmosphere with sweet staff. Drink was tasty and made pretty quick. Got the strawberry jasmine tea and I really enjoyed, will be back again. I went at 1:40 so not too busy either which was nice

Cute little spot with the nicest staff and such aesthetic decor. We loved their croffles so much that we’re already craving more. 🥐🧇 Just keep in mind it might take a little longer when it’s busy since the matcha is hand-whisked, but it’s honestly such a vibey place that I wouldn’t mind staying all day (if I didn’t have to go back to work 😭) just to yap with friends.

Tried Rari-Tea Cafe and it was sooo good, easy 5 😮‍💨 Got the hoijicha strawberry, mango green tea, and the salt bread. The hoijicha tasted really authentic, nice roasted flavor. Mango green tea was super refreshing too. The salt bread was my fave tho! soft inside, perfectly salted, and crispy on the bottom. Definitely gonna keep coming back for a different flavoured drink every time! Happy to finally have them in Edmonton

Rari-Tea Cafe has been my favourite café ever since they first opened in Bonnyville back in 2023, so I was beyond excited to hear they’ve opened a second location in Edmonton 🥹. The space itself is beautiful, cozy, welcoming, and the perfect spot to unwind right in the middle of a busy downtown. The service is top tier!! The staff are incredibly friendly, and you can genuinely tell they love what they do. The owner was especially kind and took the time to walk me through the menu, which made the experience even more special! As for the drinks..they were amazing! You can really taste the care and effort put into each one. I tried the strawberry matcha latte, matcha latte with Thai tea (from their secret menu 👀), hojicha latte with black sugar, and their salt bread. The strawberry matcha latte was perfectly balanced and not overly sweet (which I really appreciate as someone picky with matcha). The matcha latte with Thai tea was such a unique combo I never would’ve thought to try, but it worked so well (shoutout to the owner for the recommendation!). My personal favourite was the hojicha latte with black sugar.. the nuttiness and smoothness of the hojicha paired amazingly with the subtle sweetness of the black sugar. The salt bread was also delicious!! Perfectly buttery, soft on the inside, and slightly crispy on the outside. Overall, I highly recommend this family-owned café! It’s such a great addition to the Edmonton café scene and definitely worth checking out!! ♥️

Go-to spot for quality matcha and hojicha 🤗 First tried their matcha at a pop-up about a year ago and haven’t found anything as rich and authentic since. Really glad they now have a permanent location in the city, and even better that it’s close to work. I love that they have salt bread, croffles, and siomai to pair with my order. Came for the drinks, stayed for the atmosphere. The space is warm and cozy, and feels like a calm reset from the outside. The staff are always friendly and clearly enjoy what they do, which just makes the whole place even more enjoyable.
