Meow in York

Pequeño lugar super lindo! Mi compañero y yo probamos los bollos de bai y una boba de fresa. ¡Ambos eran encantadores! Jovencita trabajando allí era encantador y agradable también. Definitivamente inténtalo si estás caminando a través de la ruina.

Bollos de boa calientes y sabrosos. Solo dos opciones vegetarianas, sin vegano o gluten - opciones libres por desgracia. La cola era muy larga y esperamos un rato. Sólo había una persona sirviendo. Tal vez dos personas deberían servir durante las horas pico. ¡Vea mi Instagram para más!

¡Fantástico! La joven que nos sirvió era tan amable y educado! La experiencia fue muy agradable y el edificio en sí, a pesar de ser pequeño era muy lindo y humilde. Tomé un té de burbujas de mango y fue muy agradable. La taza era tan linda que cuando terminé el té me quedé con la taza y me la llevé a casa. ¡Recomiendo encarecidamente!

Otra salida fácil - para - perderse en el Shambles que bien vale la pena visitar. ¿Qué tan lindo es este bao? En realidad es un Mantou, un bollo de chocolate. ¡Quiero volver y probarlos todos!

Yummy! Both the chicken gyoza and the famous waffle was delicious! The creams and cookie tea was yummy too! Took a little time but so worth the wait!

My family enjoyed coming here for dessert. The bubble waffle was pricy but so huge it was big enough for two adults and children to share. The staff were friendly. My children loved the pink, cat themed interior. The waffle was tasty but the cookies on top were a bit hard.

The mango bubble tea with strawberry bubbles and it was lovely. Very nice girl who worked there but could of done with a 2nd worker.

Had higher hopes of this bubble tea, but was vastly disappointed with my order. The boba was really hard and the drink tasted terribly watered down. 🥲

We have never had a bao before so this was a totally new experience for us. We chose a pork and a chicken bao for £12 and some spicy chips for an extra £5. The food was made freshly to order and tasted very good although a bit on the spicy side for us. The portion of chips was of generous size but the bao are a bit pricey for such a small portion. They are very cute though with the little cat marks on the side. We followed this with a Ferrero rocher and Kit Kat bubble waffle which we found to be delicious. The atmosphere of the cafe is nice and the staff friendly. Overall we enjoyed the experience and would be happy to come again.

Popped in late afternoon after walking round the Christmas market. Ordered 3 smoothie drinks for the kids which came to £16, then had to wait about half an hour for them to be made!! Terrible service. The lady was training somebody up but managed to make 4 drinks rather quickly for what appeared to be her boyfriend.

Visited on a cold day, and it was equally cold inside. No heating on so the windows were very steamy and dripping condensation (which felt a bit grubby to me). The man serving was training a new member of staff. We had to wait several minutes whilst he completed a bubble tea for the previous customer then we had to wait an age for our order while he talked the trainee through every step. It was deadly quiet. Probably best to attend to your paying customers as opposed to making them wait far longer than necessary. Man also managed to set the fire alarm off which was VERY loud, and then he said ‘it’ll go off in a minute’, he didn’t make much effort to stop it, until sending the trainee employee to open the side door after we had to cover our ears. This obviously did nothing to help the freezing temperature inside. Customer experience left a lot to be desired. I was disappointed with my bubble waffle. The waffle itself was tasty, crispy and fluffy inside. However, there was an extra charge to ‘upgrade’ to one scoop of ice cream and the toppings (cookies and cream, and choc chip cookie) tasted a little stale. I agree this place is all about aesthetic. The toppings are too cumbersome, I’m not saying there is too much, just that the whole thing had to be eaten in its constituent parts as the Oreo/ cookies were just on top. Maybe crush them up? Or use minis? I also think soft serve ice cream would be better, again I had to eat this separately. It was expensive, £7.50 for a ‘premium’ waffle with two toppings, but we were told we couldn’t have two toppings the same so only chose one. £6.50 for a normal waffle and £6 odd for a brown sugar milk tea. And don’t forget the 60p each to upgrade to a scoop of sub par ice cream. If the quality was there, it would be worth the price. But it just wasn’t. I wouldn’t visit again, maybe I just caught them on a bad day.

This spot gives extraordinary service and yummy meals. One of my favourite restaurants around town. The meals and bubble tea served rapidly and the rates were reasonable. Can totally recommend it and will definitely come back again.

I took my borther out for bubble waffles and I was not disappointed. The quality of the waffles was superb. You get to choose two toppings from a given category, choice of whipped cream or vanilla/chocolate ice cream (for an extra charge), and one of the sauces (strawberry, caramel or chocolate). I chose seasonal fruits and panda biscuits with whipped cream and chocolate suace. The price I think was very good for what we recieved although I was hoping for some more fruits. Overall it was very, very tasty but a little too sweet for my liking. Also definitely built more for the aesthetic rather than practicality of eating the waffles haha. But we both enjoyed, and I would reccommend giving it a try!

Lovely staff, lovely products, love the decor! My new favourite bubble tea in york, prices generally same as most bubble tea shops.

I visited with my daughter last week, and they absolutely loved it. She had the brown sugar tea and I tried a matcha with tapioca, all delicious! The young lady serving us was also lovely and treated us very well. Would definitely recommend!

Authentic & fresh oriental street food. Quick and very friendly service, and the food was amazing! Really great value for money because they did a 4 for £10 Bao bun offer, and the salt and pepper fries were a very large portion enough for 2 adults to share.

Very cute and cosy environment, I myself am disabled meaning I’m non verbal and went in with out my carer for the first time minus the anxiety that comes with my disorder I had a very pleasant time , they were very understanding and accommodating towards me , neurodivergent/ disabled approved 😁 as for the food , the bubble waffle was heavenly and the size definitely does not disappoint for the price , my only critique would be is if you’re impatient don’t expect super speedy service I tend to be waiting 5-10 minutes depending on busyness but the store has very comfy and warm indoor seating so personally it’s not a negative as I feel the time reflects the quality , good things come to those who wait ✨

We called today to this beautiful little Japanese shop for the famous bubble waffles we had heard so much about and they did not disappoint, followed by a Mango bubble pop ( highly recommend) and Macha brownie Drink (amazing) we will definitely be calling In again the next time we are in York, Thank you to the girls on the counter for all your help too.

1st time here and loved the food and drinks. We had the pork bao bun, chicken gyoza, spicy fries and bubble tea, everything is made to order and delicious. The staff were super friendly and recommended additional places to visit in York which we thought was a very nice touch. Great services and great food, wish there was one closer to our home as is definitely worth returning!!

This is literally my favourite place in York, the bubble tea and bubble waffles are to die for. I really recommend the bao buns. I always happen to be served by Maia and the tall boy (idk his name), they are so lovely and such...

We went to Meow as we wanted to try the Bubble Tea. It was fantastic! So were the staff, but not just in here, in Bao too which is their other store. Both had friendly staff and I couldn't belive how adorable the Bao's were....

We stopped for some bao buns. The people serving were nice but the one who seems to be the manager was harsh and abrupt. After paying they told us that the buns would take between 15 and 20 mins. Wish they had said that before...

The bubble waffles were delicious but a little messy to eat. The service was good but there is only a couple of very small tables on the pavement outside and no seats inside ( I am unsure if this is to do with covid) this...

Loved this place, could do with more tables and those tables being cleaned between visits as ours was still al sticky. But the salt and pepper chips were lovely and so was the brown sugar bubble tea. Also really enjoyed their partner venue for the...

I went to the Bao Shop in the shambles and had a delicious milkshake and a lovely chat with the girl Maia who was serving me and told me about the main store Meow, which I will have to check out !!

We asked for something off the menu which was brownie in the bubble waffle itself and was amazing! The service was excellent! The place itself was clean and a very cute aesthetic. Highly recommend.

Got there, ordered three fruit drinks, two mango pineapple fruit tea and an apple peach tea. No ingredients contained inside, false advertisement, turns out we paid for almost £6 for each fruit tea and there was nothing in it except the ‘juice water’ (it was...

Staff were very kind and friendly, ordering was so easy! And the popping bubble tea was outstanding!

Given the variety of bubble tea cafes around York, I would only recommend this one if you enjoy expensive, lacklustre bubble tea and curt service. I would advise the management to review the training for the American staff member who served us. Hopefully, she can...

Ordered an already overpriced waffle and was told it was extra for ice cream. Paid 50p for a golf ball sized blob of ice cream and was really cheap non dairy stuff you can pick up for £1 for 5 litres. Cream wouldn’t have been...

Really tasty tofu bao buns & super friendly staff too! A cute place to sit and eat in York, would definitely eat there again.

The things they make is amazing! Great service, everyone their was very friendly!! Definitely reccomend

The shop is so lovely and inviting! Didnt wait long for my food at all and was pleasantly surprised at the price too! Such a cute place to sit and eat/drink if you ever feel like getting some sweet treats or food! Cant wait to...

my bubble waffle was gorgeous - not sickly but definitely satisfied my sweet craving. will definitely be returning!

It took over 20 minutes from joining the queue to receiving our drink. I ordered a bubble tea and specifically requested tapioca but unfortunately the drink that cost me £6.30 was essentially a glorified juice with no tapioca. Very disappointed to order a refreshing drink...

Loved it here! Really lovely people and the food was so CUTE and tasty!! Will definitely visit again! Thank you ☺️

we visited the store today and had a really nice time, the girls working in the shop were very friendly, especially phoebe, who is a credit to the company. we will definitely visit again because the boba teas and service were both excellent. :)

Me and my girlfriend visited on her lunch break since we wanted to try something different, definitely recommend! The bao buns and the salt and pepper fries and delicious and we will definitely be coming back!

A long wait for a burnt waffle. Menu inaccuracies, a long ordering process and unhelpful staff also an issue!

I really enjoyed my visit! 100% will come back! So friendly and the food and drink was so good!! Amazing experience!!!!!

The service was brilliant, and as someone who has not had boba before, the owner recommended an incredible drink! I am definitely going back.

The people in the cafe were lovely and friendly and I've never seen anything like these in York. Everything was made to order and fresh so there is a slight wait (we had to wait 10 minutes) but it is well worth it. The waffle...

The boba was amazing, nothing like I have ever had. Very original. The boa buns looked so cute and were very delicious. Haven’t tried the waffle but I will definitely go back.

Went with a friend to order a bubble waffle. Had to wait to order since they had a large order come in, but the staff were all very nice about it. Came back and ordered a waffle with fruit and brownie toppings. Although it was...

After returning back to the UK from having lived in shanghai for 2 years it was a really nice refreshing treat to find on the streets of York. I had see Meow advertised on my instagram and was eager to try it out, as I...

I’m late to the bao bun party. But wow, I’m happy these were my first. Such succulent pork, such tantalising flavour. I’ll be back to try the chicken next time. And maybe some of those delicious looking deserts. Clean, fresh and friendly staff. Enjoy!

DELICIOUS! After seeing so many people getting the bubble waffles I couldn’t resist... the girls in the shop were really friendly & service was great. Plus the food was so yummy - will be going back to try out the drinks next time!

After enjoying bubble waffles in Hong Kong, my sister and I knew we had to try Meow, as it’s so local to us. Our waffles were delicious with ice cream, marshmallows and wafers — what’s not to enjoy? Also, the ladies who served us were...

Amazing food, I was wanting to order for ages and I’m so glad I did. Lovely service, and the food tastes as good as it looks!

I've been to this place several time by myself and enjoyed it so much so I had to bring my mum with me this time. We tried the pineapple and mango fruit tea and the spicy chicken kimchi bao buns. It was my mum and...

My friends and I have been talking about Meow since it opened and we finally got to try it today! We ordered some pork bao buns and a few boba milk tea. The pork buns were exquisitely made and they were so delicious. The decoration...

It is absolutely incredible! Everything is so so amazing and delicious. I ordered a bao bun and an iconic milk tea boba and it was all absolutely incredible. I had to take it home on a bus and after around 40 minutes it was STILL...

Just waited 15 minutes for two bubble waffles. They got the order wrong Twice. Bubble waffle scarcely filled full of cheap ice cream...two bite each and put in the bin.. £14. 60 down the drain... I’d urge people to use the other Waffle House just...

I’ve been wanting to try Meow since it opened and I finally got the chance to try it today! Me and my mum shared the pork Bao buns and they did not disappoint! They were delicious and had so much flavour to them. We had...

Excellent service and wonderful deserts. Really fun and delicious. A unique cafe to add to York’s growing reputation for all things cat!

We got a ferrero roche and seasonal fruit bubble waffle and a cookies and cream with chocolate chip cookie bubble waffle and both were made within 5-10 minutes by hand and tasted amazing. There was one lady taking orders and cooking and she helped us...

The staff were lovely and the environment was nice and clean. Tried a variety of food and drinks - enjoyed it all.

Ordered a variety of the food, all spot on, definitely outshines competitors in York. Well priced handmade authentic food. It was a disgrace to see someone had judged it so harshly, shame on them. Doing a great job thanks for the amazing food.

Ordered Galbi Korean Pork Ribs Ramen and brown sugar with milk bubble tea and had it delivered. Cant fault it, the flavour of ribs was bang on and the bubble tea was so nice. I was very pleased with my food and will order/visit (when...

My housemates and I decided to order a range of the food and share it since the place was new and we wanted to get a feel of what the food would be like. Between us we tried two different bao and ramen and I...

Enjoyed the food. There was a bit of a waiting time but the bao buns were fluffy and I enjoyed the korean ribs. The meat was tender and the flavours were unique. I liked that it was spicy. My friend had the bubble waffles, we've...
