A nice boba shop! We usually go for the collabs, but the collab drinks usually aren't very good. The service can be a bit slow, but the owner is kind.

The drinks are amazing! We ordered the Crunchy Tiramisu, Snow velvet peach matcha and the strawberry green tea - all were amazing! The service was super good and the man was very nice. The atmosphere was also very nice. Overall it would be a 10/10 and I definitely will come back.Parking: Parking is good as it is in a plaza.

Not only does the alley serve my favourite bubble tea EVER, the owner of the store is the sweetest man. He is so hard working and kept his store open for us when we didn’t realize he was closed. He took the time to chat with us a bit and gave us great customer service. If you are looking for a boba place in waterloo, let it be the alley.

Had the cocoa crunch milk tea today and it had a weird taste to itThere was a bit of a line and customer service was messy (understandably because it’s busy but) felt there could have been more

The Alley in Waterloo is a fantastic bubble tea store with great serviceI love to get the Royal No. 9 drink. It tastes like original milk tea with a hint of blueberry flavorSecondly, I really like the crunchy tiramisu milk teaThirdly (this is the most popular drink here), I also love the Deerioca Fever with fresh milk. It's just tapioca in brown sugar with your choice of fresh milk or oat milk. I prefer fresh milk
