— Toronto-based bubble tea shop is set to open this summer at WNY’s largest shopping center —
Buffalo, NY (May 2025): Real Fruit Bubble Tea is excited to announce the opening of its newest location at Walden Galleria this summer, part of a continuing effort to establish the brand in the U.S. market. Their vibrant new store will be located in a 542 sq. ft. space on the upper level across from Dick’s Sporting Goods.
Real Fruit Bubble Tea is known for its delicious, handcrafted bubble teas assembled using top-quality ingredients brewed from loose leaf and espresso tea machines. Their fruit drinks are made strictly with real fruits processed on-site, without the use of artificial preservatives or additives. No pre-made or pre-packaged juices are available in store, and each drink is made with fruit freshly cut and tailored to each customer’s taste and preference. Real Fruit Bubble Tea’s menu offers a variety of fruit slushies, smoothies, sherbets, freshly squeezed juices, milk tea, fresh green tea, and hot tea. Each drink can be customized with toppings such as tapioca pearls, fresh fruit, whey protein, and assorted fruit jellies. Through its flagship Mango Diamond Slush and other signature beverages, the brand has earned a loyal following among bubble tea enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The new location at Walden Galleria aims to bring this beloved beverage experience to even more customers in the Buffalo area.
“We’re thrilled for Real Fruit Bubble Tea to open this summer at Walden Galleria,” says Alex Corbelli, Marketing Director for Walden Galleria. “Their can’t-miss location will allow them to engage with a diverse community of shoppers who are seeking innovative beverage options. We look forward to sharing in their commitment to quality with the Buffalo Community.”
Real Fruit Bubble Tea was established in 2002 in Toronto and has evolved significantly over the past two decades. Transitioning from an Asian-based company, RFBT has grown into an inclusive and diverse Canadian brand. The opening of the new location at Walden Galleria signifies an aggressive growth strategy, as they aim to operate over 150 stores across Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and the United States by the end of 2025.
