Bon Appetea Cafe - San Gabriel

"Their selection of drinks is, in my opinion, limited. Essentially 99% of their drinks have some type of caffeine in them, be it tea or coffee. However, they make up for lack of selection in drink with selection of snacks. I got egg rolls and fried calamari and they were sooo good! They also have restrooms and some comfy seating inside. Really chill vibes."

"There is a new owner, and now this restaurant is a chain store. The snacks are good and delicious. I have come all the way to try it."

"Ordered through Uber Eats and got the Matcha Salted Cheese Foam ($5). Since I did not personally visit the store, I can't comment on the service or atmposhere. However, based on my Uber app, the drinks were prepared quite fast. As for the taste, it was much better than expected! The matcha flavor is very strong and authentic tasting. It went very well with the salted cheese foam whether you mixed it or drank it as it was. Their cups are also very good quality! They are sturdy and have a good grip. It also is thicker so the coldness doesn't go right through. The cup's design is also smart. They have a little push down plug-like closure over the sip and then a little hole for you to put it there while drinking. The lid is also nice and sturdy enough that I could shake the cup a bit. Would definitely visit again in person!"

"The Irish satirist Jonathan Swift once claimed that "A tavern is a place where madness is sold by the bottle." It isn't too far-fetched to call this boba shop a place where happiness is sold by the (unfortunately non-refundable) plastic cup. This place is one of three locations in the San Gabriel Valley area. The employees are kind, professional and friendly at all times. The best part about this shop is that, even though is not their specialty, the bento boxes feel like a meal that you'd buy at an actual Japanese restaurant. They're that good for the price and the fact that they're made in the back of a boba shop makes it even more impressive. Also, the fact that out of the three locations, this is one of the less crowded ones makes it a great location for any opportunity. If my subpar prose and mediocre photos still haven't done the job of enticing you to check this place out, just know that from 2pm till 6pm during weekdays there is "Happy Hour" (a drink plus a small snack for $7.99), so please make sure to check that out."

"Glad i took this recommendation. They have parking. Taro slush was better than other taro bobas ive had. Taro was sweet not too much and boba texture was good too. I like that this place has spicy levels for the calamari (mild, medium, hot and real hot) i got the medium and the calamari were good they had just the right amount of seasoning and i also tried some of my friend’s green beans mmm also good theyre both like snack portions though so youd have to eat a lot of them if you want to get a meals worth. Anyway, cute seating inside and outside, not a lot of seats but cute place to c h i l l ✨ definitely recommend for a quick snack or boba"
