Flo Tea Room is located on Granville Street in the Marpole area. It’s been there for several year now and they would serve food similarly found at Hong Kong or Taiwanese Style Cafes.
FoodPunk, FoodQueen and I decided to grab some drinks and dessert here since we were in the area.
The interior is quite spacious with a few booth seats and standard tables.
Shakespeare’s Affair ($4.95)
Fire in Ice ($4.95)
Shrek ($4.95) has red bean on the bottom and matcha slush on top. It’s a very creative name since the drink is green and shrek is green. I did enjoy the drink, it wasn’t too sweet at all.
Honey Box Toast ($7.50) is a hallowed out chunk of bread and filled with toasted bread pieces topped with ice cream, fruit, Oreos and your choice of sauce. We got chocolate sauce on top.
I’ve seen so much hype over the Honey Box Toast and when I saw it on the menu, we just had to order it. It seemed quite popular at other restaurants too.
I wasn’t a big fan of this item since it was essentially toast but in a different form. I didn’t find the toppings to be very unique either. To make it a bit sweeter, I asked for a dish of condensed milk to add into it. Even though the honey box toast does look super cool, it’s not for everyone.
Overall, I may not have liked the box toast, but the service was pretty amazing. We probably spent 3 hours here and the servers were so nice and filled up our tea quite often. We never felt any pressure to leave. Great place to have some bubble tea and chat!

Service was below terrible. I felt as though we where invisible – I had to ask for tea refill half a dozen times before it was done. My friend ordered a dessert after the main and the waitress asked, “Do you want me to make it now?” There was more staff than customers but still no service.
Shakes looked amazing on card, but failed to deliver. Was sad when I paid.
Food’s main ingredient was MSG,
