Went here for a birthday treat and the servicer was amazing! The bubble tea was also one of the best I've had - highly recommend the peach tea with strawberry bubbles!

I’m actually mad at myself for not trying this sooner! I don’t want to eat or drink anything else ever again it was so tasty!!! And a lot of the boba teas (including the milk ones) can be vegan, as well as serving vegan food. Also the girl who served us was so lovely. Oh AND the food is so cheap (the price does not reflect quality at all though the rice was so fluffy, the meat / veggie meat so high quality, and a nice range of veg, all cooked perfectly)! Nicest and tastiest place I’ve been to in a long time and I’ll be back every time I come to Chester :)

I've been coming here for years to get my daughter Boba tea, which she loves, and i think is vile sugar water... but never tried the food, well, I have been missing out! I ordered the plant-based tofu teriyaki noodles on a whim when I needed something quick for lunch and I was surprised how delicious the food there is, i didn't have high expectations for food from essentially a hole in the wall, but they are abit of a hidden gem food wise it turns out. Now I know why there is always a queue.

My favourite place to eat in Chester! I order from cactus quite frequently, their food is delicious and fresh and they are always so accommodating. They have such a huge range of food and always adding new things to the menu. The drinks also have different sugar and milk options which is great for people with different needs. I’m a frequent a customer in person and by delivery and they have never ever made a mistake. I have included a selection of food I’ve eaten over the past few years- my favourites are the tofu steak, the katsu prawn and avocado uramaki and the katsu chicken ramen. They recently added Japanese cheesecake which is unbelievable (shown in pics) and hard to find in Chester so I would definitely recommend it! It’s really such delicious food and they have something for everyone which I love

We stayed in Chester for the week and popped here every day. Fantastic spot for sushi lovers! Cactus Drink Well in Chester offers a great selection of fresh sushi with plenty of variety to choose from. We also enjoyed their tasty range of bubble tea flavors – each one was a fun and delicious treat! The ‘don of the day’ and hot meat on rice specials were definite highlights, with amazing flavours and great value. Just a heads-up: they sell out quickly, so it's best to get there early. They could use a few more rice cookers to keep up with the demand, but overall, it’s a must-visit for fresh and flavorful Japanese-inspired dishes in Chester!

Been coming here for several years now and happily keep coming back! Delicious drinks and lots of variation, the food is absolutely delicious and really good value for your money! The staff are always very kind too which goes a long way. Whenever I buy food from here everyone always asks me “oooh where’s that from?” Says it all!

Friendly staff, extremely reasonable prices and now stocking imported asian snacks, too. 10/10 local spot to pick up lunch and go and eat on the nearby cathedral grounds. Also very good quality if you order delivery to your house.

the boba here is fantastic. tastes great, made quickly and cheaper than a lot of other places. iirc it was around 4.50-5 for a large which is a lot cheaper than other places i’ve been to that’s offered a smaller portion. the shop itself is spotless and offers a wide selection of different food and snacks.
