Meet Fresh 鲜芋仙

During the summer, there are days when only a mountain of shaved ice the size of a toddler will do. On those days, head to Meet Fresh. This chain with multiple locations is known for its Taiwanese desserts involving ice jelly, purple rice, and tofu pudding—but they also make great boba tea. Meet Fresh has a ton of seating, making this a solid choice for group hangs when you A) don’t want to drink alcohol and B) don’t want to spend a ton of money.
