What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"LimeRed Teahouse is a small cafe located right outside of the BU campus, with a wide range of desserts and drinks to try out. The staff are pretty welcoming, able to cater to most requests and are able to explain any recommendations to new customers. They make the drinks pretty quick and kept us informed throughout the process. We typically come here to get Bubble Waffles with Ice cream, which does take a little time to make, but the batter used is light and fluffy and goes well with the ice cream they serve. They also have macarons here, which are pretty standard. The teas are good, some of them don't have as strong as a flavor as they should but overall is pretty good. Definitely a good place to study or just to hang out while in the area."
"I don’t usually leave reviews, but this experience was disappointing. The woman working the counter clearly didn’t want to be there, monotone, unfriendly, and zero effort in customer service. When we picked up our order, she tossed our waffle onto the counter instead of handing it to us. The boba itself was fine, but the service completely ruined the visit. Definitely not coming back unless they improve their staff’s attitude."
"Drinks were ok. What got me here writing was the service or lack there of. Stopped in for a quick pick me up and was greeted with a monotone I hate my job woman who got our order wrong and when confronted, said if we wanted tea it’s a dollar more. Yes ma’am we wanted tea and ordered tea. If unclear, simply ask or speak, perhaps even repeating an order would be good standard business practice. Will not return. We were there, Saturday 6/14 around 3pm. Cheers ✌️ A typical owner’s response to a bad review is blame the customer. Brown sugar milk tea was what was ordered, it isn’t a customer’s job to review how that is entered into your system. Take business accountability, your service just sucked and there’s plenty of room to improve upon it."
"On the first visit, I had the Rose Jasmine tea. It was the best cup of tea I've ever had. It hit perfectly on a rainy day and my only suggestion for improvement on that day would have been a better choice of music. Revisited:I got the same drink on my second visit and it didn't hit quite the same. It was lukewarm and had an off (kind of burnt) taste, like drinking dish soap. The atmosphere is still great. The one-woman show is quite busy preparing to-go orders, all of them cold drinks with vibrant colorways; I commend her for that. I don't think I'll be back around the way for some time but if I do find myself in Packard's corner soon, I'd love to try one of those colder drinks that she's selling like hotcakes so that I can update my review. The jury is still out."
"I haven't been to LimeRed in ages, so coming back was really nice. The place is sadly not as busy at is used to be. Boba was chewy and the flavors still hold up from what I remember. The place is also transit accessible, just across the street from the Green Line B Branch Station at Packards Corner and 2 blocks from Babcock Street. There are near-adjacent stops for the 57 bus as well. Transit accessibility for LimeRed is really good."
"Convenient location but easy to miss. Menu seems pretty diverse and they even have monthly specials. Little bit of seating inside and a cozy atmosphere..."
