Last week, it was reported that a growing chain of bubble tea shops would be opening a new location north of Boston, and now we have learned that yet another outlet will be opening north of the city as well.
According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Gong Cha is planning to open in Wakefield, with the website for the business saying that it will be moving into a space on Main Street in the center of town. Once it opens, expect to see such options as bubble tea, slush, and other tea beverages, and it will join a number of other locations locally--and as mentioned in an earlier article, an outlet of the chain is coming to Andover as well.
The address for the upcoming location of Gong Cha in Wakefield is 410 Main Street, Wakefield, MA, 01880. The website for Gong Cha (which first started out in Taiwan in 2006) is at https://www.gongchausa.com/
