Breaktime Tea Lounge & Bánh Mì

I love tea in most any form and with so many tea houses in the area, there is always a new place to visit and a new tea to try. A nearby establishment that has caught my attention and quickly won me over is Breaktime Tea Lounge, in Katy Asian Town.

Most people who visit Breaktime Tea Lounge will come here for the drinks, and for good reason. They have several delicious and memorable milk teas and fruit teas from which to select. The Thai Green Milk Tea is my favorite, but there are more than enough other flavors and styles, all equally good. They also have a few coffee drinks, but this restaurant is mostly about tea.

If you want something to eat, Breaktime Tea Lounge has several Vietnamese Bahn Mi sandwiches, plus shrimp, egg rolls, popcorn chicken, and other foods that are just right for a light meal or side snack. There are no really large meals here, but you should easily be able to satisfy your appetite with a pair of food items. I usually go for the chicken tenders and egg rolls, for example. Paired with a milk tea, I leave feeling satisfied.

The atmosphere at Breaktime Tea Lounge is cozy and friendly and it’s small enough that it is generally quiet. This makes it a good choice when you want to sit back and chat with a family member or friend while you sip your tea and nibble on your snack item. The metal chairs aren’t the most comfortable, but they are good enough for a short stay and shouldn’t distract too much from your enjoyment.

I’m always up for trying a new tea house. Breaktime Tea Lounge is a very nice little establishment for tasty tea and a quick snack. It is yet another reason why I have grown to love Katy Asian Town so much and why I visit here are frequently as I do.

Stopped in and had the Banh Mi sandwich and also tried the fried shrimp basket. The flavors were fresh and the shrimp was perfectly fried and tender! Their fruit teas are some of the best I have tried in the Houston region. We will definitely be returning.

Decided to stop by here on our way back from out of town, was not disappointed. Their home made desserts are certified AMAZING! The yogurt is a must. Wish I would’ve bought more. Mango green tea was perfect and not too sweet like other places, their mini egg rolls were a perfect addition to the vermicelli noodle bowl, I had the shrimp, fish sauce was a perfect blend. Kimchi fries were about a 7/10 for me, could’ve been better if it was a bit spicier but that’s just me.

This tea shop is AMAZING!! Your sinkers (boba or jellies) are included in the price of the drink. Speaking of prices, Breaktime's are hard to beat. The staff was so friendly and was extremely helpful. My fruit tea tasted fresh and they were generous with the jellies. I was able to get in and out very quickly. There's plenty of parking as well. I really appreciate the earlier hours as well!
