There are usually other drinks besides coffee on the menu in a cafe. Like hot chocolate and tea =3

And you are about the same distance from Portland that I am lol Salem is about a 45 minute drive away.

there was this coffee house by the Library downtown but i dont remember its name, but it had really good coffee, also here in downtown Milwaukie there is this new coffee house that has some pretty good coffee too, they show the schools art as well so its very community based

Hmmmm I was also thinking about Bubble Tea... I might change this and havea meet at the Fuban Market because I love Bubble tea and they have pretty good Bubble tea.

There are a bunch of places that have bubble tea now. I am a fan of bubble bubble in Beaverton, though I'm not quite sure where you guys have in mind.

More like a mini-mall.

Would anyone want to have multiple meetups for those in different areas?

Post by: Himura Kenshin on September 11, 2012, 12:06:57 am
I might be able to come if I can get adequate directions. According to google it doesn't seem close to the MAX line, so I wouldn't want to get lost, I don't drive so I would be relying on public transport/walking. But it also depends on the day too, I am going to be busy this weekend (sat/sun).

And cosplay sounds fun.

Also I don't know if I've had crepes.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: zenneth on September 11, 2012, 09:15:43 am
i rely on public transportation as well--

then again, if i remember correctly, there's a  bubble tea shop around lloyd center area...

^ is that the place you were thinking of? This is near the lyod center. I havent tried there but I would be willing to try if others are willing as well. As long as there is bubble tea I am in
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: zenneth on September 11, 2012, 11:52:20 am
yes i believe that's the place~~
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Tsukinya on September 11, 2012, 11:54:32 am
I'd love to do this with you guys.  I was really disappointed when you said coffee in Salem.. I live in Portland.  But I love coffee or bubble tea, and I could totally do something around Lloyd! (very easy to MAX to, though not free anymore :P )  Let me know when you firm up a place and time, and I'm there ;)

And I love crepes.. though I shouldn't eat them :\  ^How can you have never had crepes?  Thin little pancakes filled with fruit or cream like sweet little burritos?  Yummy...  Of course, dedicated crepe places fold one giant one and serve it in a little triangle wrapper.  Still delicious and more fun to eat.  Making me hungry....  :D
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: EveofAbyss on September 11, 2012, 11:55:26 am
I have only been to one place out in Tualatin and Chit Chat in downtown Portland. Chit Chat is amazing, but I'm down for anywhere. I would be taking public transit most likely also, if I can make it.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 11, 2012, 12:44:44 pm
Alright so it looks like the bubble tea shop near llyod center is a go. I'd be able to do this friday, this weekend, or sometime next week.

I wasnt actually insinuating it be in salem I was just giving examples of coffee places other than starbucks that I knew about. ^^;

I would love to join you guys but I'm pretty busy so probably can't :( be nice to know more Anime fans.  However I do have a suggestion.  Try out Mojo crepes it's right next to Fubon on division and 84th.  They have Japanese style crepes, Japanese style hot dogs, and bubble tea. 
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 14, 2012, 03:40:12 am
^ I think I've been there before it was pretty good. I only had their bubble tea though I would love to try their crepes.

Does anyone have a preference between days next week? 

I cant do Tuesdays or Thursdays because of kickboxing but any other day is fine with me.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Himura Kenshin on September 14, 2012, 05:23:08 pm
Weekdays are pretty free for me, weekends not so sure but I cannot do Sundays because the bus from my house doesn't run on sundays.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 14, 2012, 05:44:31 pm
So its between next Wednesday of Friday?
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Chef McM on September 17, 2012, 06:50:34 pm
Looks like I may be a little late to the party, but I'd love to grab some coffee/tea and meet a few new anime friends as I am still relatively new to the area.  If this happens this week, I could potentially make it on Wed or Fri, but it would depend on precisely when it is.  Any thoughts on what time of day would work best?  This week, late afternoon / early evenings are best for me.  If it ends up not happening until some later date, that's fine too.  At any rate, I'll keep an eye on this thread for more info.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?

Ok, rose, final verdict of the date? XD
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 18, 2012, 04:32:07 pm
 I may or may not be in cosplay though I dont know.. If I am in cosplay it will most likely be Juliet.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 18, 2012, 04:33:15 pm
ATTENTION!! Friday is the date. I'm shooting for 2 (modified this post to make sure no confusion hehe ^^;; ) Look for Juliet Starling
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 18, 2012, 05:04:55 pm

Great!  I'll be able to make it, but I won't be in costume since I'm coming straight from a school meeting.  I'll have my 3DS/Vita with if anyone else has one that they would like to bring (Streetpass tags are fun even if we don't play anything).

I might be able to make it :)  I'm leaving Friday evening for a beach trip so the afternoon might be doable for me.  I miss con every time it's over so it'll be nice to chit chat about everyone's experiences.

We might end up going to the same beach! :p  I'm going to Rockaway Beach.  Well I'm looking forward to meeting some of you guys.  At con I was staffing so really didn't get a chance to meet anyone besides a few people in panels.  I don't have a cosplay so I hope that is alright >_<

I'm going to spend time with some friends in Lincoln city so I'm not actually spending much time on the beach. Its fine if you dont have cosplay ^^ I'm only wearing one so I'm easy to spot. I will either be in Juliet, or Sailor Venus depending on how cold it is and how self conscious I am feeling.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?

It'll be my first time to the beach this summer.  So excited I might so skinny dipping in the ocean!  :p  Only been to Lincoln City once and it was during the winter T_T.  You go as Venus and I'll go as Mars hahah
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?

Post by: Chef McM on September 21, 2012, 11:52:37 am
Bummer.  Looks like this may be a fairly small group, but that's okay too.  I'm always down for doing stuff like this again.  I may get there a bit early today and do some work.  I'll have a neko bus hoodie, so I won't be super hard to spot, but by that same token, I can't imagine having any difficulty spotting a Sailor Senshi.
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?

Well I think I'm gonna make this a different day. I dont have the money to drive up to portland to meet up with only one other person when I'm going to the beach tomorrow DX So I think I'll have to make it a different day when more people can come

It's only one other person?  I thought there was gonna be a small group :/  Well let's definitely reschedule this meeting.  Well thanks for being willing to drive from Salem to hang out with us :)  Could always see if any other people wanna hang out in Salem right?  I myself am there a lot because half my relatives live in Salem haha

Well I'll let you know Black Rose when I'm in Salem.  I'm sure there are other Kumoricon people in Salem who would wanna meetup sometime there.  Hit me up on Facebook if you wanna keep in contact better.  That goes for anyone else reading this :)  The info should be on my page

@Naitron~ Alright I added you.

@Tsukinya ~ yeah its just that my weekend was busy that's why I made it then >.< but most of my weekends are going to be busy now because I work at a haunted house here in Salem that opens every weekend starting on the 12th of October.

Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on September 26, 2012, 12:02:04 am
^Unfortunatly I cannot get you in for free. Besides the Haunted house proceeds go to the Oregon School For the Deaf. Its good charity.

 but as long as we have this meet up early enough in the afternoon I would be able to go up to portland. I just have to leave portland by 2

Post by: krazylilmeow on November 04, 2012, 09:47:21 am
I'd be interested in a Bubble tea meetup! I'm available after 530pm most days, anytime on Wednesdays (so if it was in Salem that would be the day).
I work full time so my schedules limited but I know of some great places!
In Beaverton there's Bubble tea Bubble which is closest to me, They have a sister store at the Fubonn Market in Clackamas (theres also that asain crepe shop/blue sky bubble up a couple blocks from there), I know a place in Downtown Portland that serves alcoholic bubble tea ;) I like Salem but I would have to trust you fine people because I don't know the area too well.

I am not actually going to make it up there on Day 0 T_T

I have nobody to hang out with and I would still have to go back home. I need to pack / get ready (been not at home babysitting dogs lol) aaaannd.. My AC is broken on my car.... SO I am all for waiting for my boyfriends car XD

Oh my friends and I are going to hang out on Day 0, though we're heading back to Portland, there's a little cafe by the place we're eating at called Chit-Chat Cafe. Has an amazing variety of bubble teas (Iced, Smoothie, AND Hot 8D)

We're gonna stop by there after we eat Sushi, so we love to see fellow cosplayers there as well~
Title: Re: >w< Bubble Tea meet up?
Post by: Black~Rose on August 27, 2014, 04:57:03 pm
I wouldn't be able to go to a bubble tea meet on Day 0 though. Not only does my car not have AC but I have just too much to do and sleep to have before I leave at 4-5am the next day... X_X Is there any other time? The last day perhaps?
