TO 20 YEARS OF L2 BUBBLE TEA

WE COULDN’T DO IT WITHOUT YOU

We’re celebrating a big milestone, 20 years of L2 Bubble Tea. From our humble beginnings in Chinatown to stores throughout the province of Quebec, the mission has always been to offer our community the best bubble tea. Thanks for the love.

A LIL’ ABOUT L2 BUBBLE TEA

It was all a dream. Twenty years ago, we started selling our bubble tea on the second level of a building in the heart of Montreal's Chinatown—hence our name, L2. We grew our menu one drink at a time, expanded our locations, and built our reputation for next-level bubble tea.
