About

Gong Cha serves Taiwanese-style bubble tea, including matcha and Earl Grey almond milk teas, alongside a wide range of flavors and toppings. The Kyoto Station-area shop has only a few tables and is often full, so takeaway is a practical choice; finding it in the underground Porta mall can take some navigation.
