Qureshi named Mi ‘N Tea among the area's best.
Here's what she said about Mi ‘N Tea:
Siblings Troy and Kim Dieu opened Mi ‘N Tea in 2020 to share two family favorites in Manayunk: Taiwanese bubble tea and Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches. The family shop on Main Street serves fresh-baked bread, meats and veggies with Vietnamese mayonnaise in their banh mi selections as well as a variety of bubble teas. Indulge in rich Vietnamese coffees with cold foams, coffee jellies, and Thai teas with espresso, coffee foam, and tapioca pearls. You can also choose from milk teas, fruit teas and slushies — or build your own bubble tea drink. There’s also a sparkling strawberry limeade with passionfruit popping bubbles and a brown sugar boba milk tea for caffeine-free drinkers.
Mi ‘N Tea is located at 4229 Main St. in Manayunk and is open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays.
