京茶山 林口中原店

❤️ This is one of the few beverage shops in Linkou that operates until midnight. I remember the tea prices were higher during the late hours before, but it seems they have recently lowered them back to the regular prices. Each post includes actual dining photos, even if it’s just a picture of a drink, to avoid users pretending to have dined without food pictures. Overall rating: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

📍 This place is located on Zhongyuan Street at the fork of the old street in Linkou, and parking is somewhat inconvenient. The shop does not provide any seating inside, nor is there a restroom available.
🚗 If driving, it’s advisable to park at the outdoor parking lot on Zhongshan Road (20 TWD/hour), where the first thirty minutes are free.
🏍️ Most motorcycles are parked outside for quick purchases.

💬 Originally, I was buying fried chicken next door, and I found it amusing to see that the drink shop's sign was still lit up. However, it was hard to tell if they were actually open, and I only found out they were open after asking the staff. Surprisingly, they even have a late-night menu (which has much fewer options than the regular menu), but I noticed that the tea prices had increased on the previous late-night menu.
(Thankfully, there are a few options on the late-night menu; otherwise, looking at their full menu on the glass, I think I might need five to ten minutes to decide what to drink...)

I also noticed there was a spot for a shop cat, but I probably arrived too late to see it. You can also spend 10 TWD to buy meat paste to feed the cat. 🐱
