The Starbucks location near Houshanpi is situated on Section 5 of Zhongxiao East Road, close to Houshanpi Station. The entrance doesn’t appear very spacious, but the depth is quite extensive. Additionally, there is a second floor, so the overall capacity is not too limited.

Today, I enjoyed Alishan Oolong tea and a lemon tart, totaling around 230 TWD.

Alishan Oolong tea:
This Oolong tea from the Teavana series was originally served hot but can be made iced upon request. Today, I had a pot of iced Alishan Oolong; there is also an option for it in a cup.

After a wait, a pot of tea with matching cups was served, and I could ask the staff for a refill once I finished the tea. The quality of the tea leaves at Starbucks is definitely good; it’s refreshing and has a natural aftertaste.

Lemon tart:
I happened to catch the 30% off promotion, so the lemon tart, originally priced at 70 TWD, was only 49 TWD. The lemon fragrance is refreshing, and the tart has a sweet flavor without being overly rich, which pairs quite well with the Oolong tea.

Overall, it is a standard Starbucks chain. The second floor has a decent view, but unfortunately, the balcony is closed off.

I recommend it to everyone.
