Big Orange @ Surrey Central Mall

Big Orange
Surrey Central Mall



An older Big Orange location, still has frequent stamp card (10 drinks), though the stamps/card only valid on this location only. Since the other Big Orange locations are getting a face lift and this one hasn't, I'm assuming it's not 100% under the same ownership??


The Good:

• fresh and unique fruit mixes
• frequent buyer card: 10 drinks get 1 free
• lots of flavors to choose from

The Bad:

• nothing bad to say

My recommended flavors:

• Coffee & Tea (one of few places I get this flavor from)
• Mango milk tea
• coffee vanilla

The Verdict:
Price:      $ $ $            a typical  $3.75 for powder drinks
Choices: ☺☺☺☺     lots to choose from
Quality:   ☼ ☼ ☼       good consistent quality, a standard in quality
Overall:   ♥ ♥ ♥          stamp card! good service, consistent quality

It seems like Big Orange is expanding into many locations lately, you should probably keep a lookout for them in Vancouver sooner or later. Guildford Mall location is one of the newer ones I've came across. Their new branding redesign is modern and a big improvement over their original amateur design branding.

The Good:

• fresh fruit drinks
• frequent buyer card. Though different locations may not accept other location cards?? 
• average price
• good selection
• good redesign on their image brand (menu, look, etc)

The Bad:

• they may not accept other Big Orange stamp cards

My recommended flavors:

• milky mango w/ coconut jelly

The Verdict:

Price:      $ $ $         your typical average price ($3.75)
Choices: ☺☺☺☺  many flavors including fresh fruits & ice cream
Quality:   ☼ ☼ ☼    good typical quality, good tapioca pearls + service
Overall:   ♥ ♥ ♥       your standard mall bubble tea, no real complaints
