Review The Green Leaf - Waconia

Green Leaf is awesome!! They have a great variety of beverages. I personally love their flavored green tea with popping pearls. It has a nice, relaxed atmosphere, and the staff there are very friendly. We often find ourselves driving 10 minutes out of the way just to stop!

There is a wonderfully positive vibe in this place . They also have a wide array of very interesting teas (hot or cold). I like basic black tea, so a bottomless teapot of Dragon's Well is my jam. I love the way they serve it with the actual teapot and cups.

I just discovered this wonderful little tea shop in the heart of Waconia. There was a large variety of teas available that sounded delightful. The flavors to add to the tea are also a plenty and all sound delicious. You can also order milk tea or thai tea. The piece de resistance is the ability to add boba or tapioca pearls. Popping pearls filled with many kinds of flavors are also available. Pearls are wonderful little things that I have grown to love since a trip to San Francisco seventeen years ago. The people who work here are also amazing. I had a long conversation with Hoseng, what a kind and helpful man. He not only took the time to explain everything I needed to know about his teas but to give me a lesson on having a lovely and green fresh water fish tank. I recommend this place to everyone and anyone for a unique and fun experience.

The owner Hoseng was very accommodating to myself and my husband! We were filming a news piece for Fox9 news and he allowed us to shoot at the café. My husband and I found this little gem after a night at the movies across the street. We were looking for something different...that is EXACTLY what we found. We both fell in love with the coconut pineapple smoothie with yogurt (bobas) beads. It is just like a piña colada. And I LOVE the bobas. Little balls of juicy heaven. It is a fun way to play with your food (or drink😝). They try to lessen was and eliminate spills and ill-fitting lids by heat sealing a layer of plastic over the top of your drink, and they have different colored designs so if you have a group, everybody can tell whose is whose! The employees are college students that donate their time. So it keeps the costs down, which is reflected in the price of the drinks. This is a cozy little hole-in-the-wall that has a comfy feeling, and the volunteers are very sweet and very helpful! If I could have rated higher than a 5, I would have! Thank you Hoseng, for helping us out...we will return the favor by making your drinks a regular part of our diet! We will be seeing you again very soon...maybe even today😉!

They were fast and friendly. Being I had my baby nephew with they were fast but yet friendly enough to get to know all about them. They have a great flavor selection too.

The place is small, and painfully comfortable. And although I don't know if I really enjoy the tea (personal preference), but I do enjoy the time I spend there.

Very fun place to hang out. Some days you can get some beautiful henna art done also.

Love this place! Great tea and amazing staff who are always helpful and awesome!!

I have never had a bad tea here. The staff and the owners are fantastic people and have created a nice cozy area to sit down, play games, read, or just drink your beverage. My fiancé and I literally drive out of our way to stop here when we go to the cities. Highly recommend this place!

Always delicious bubble tea, and the popping pearls are so much fun! The staff is so incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming!

I have not had boba tea this good since I was in Japan! Great helpful staff and amazing flavors!

Ho-seng gave us the best customer service and product. What an amazing tea shop!
