" Four stars for their noteworthy HK Milk Tea! A delightful balance and depth of flavors make it refreshing. The food? It could definitely do better; was a tad on the uninspired side. Cute spot, although a bit congested when busy. Worth a visit for the tea and vibes, possibly the food can improve later on! " (*Curated Review*)

" Marathon Cafe nails the essence of a true Hong Kong dining experience. The Milk Tea is a dream - smooth as silk with a depth of flavor that is hard to find elsewhere. I was satisfied with my satay noodles but felt it could use a touch more seasoning. The crowd can make the atmosphere frantic, but it adds to the lively experience. I’d definitely come back for more tea and to try other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic! The Hong Kong Milk Tea is quite possibly the best in town – creamy with a rich taste. The service was swift and friendly. The food I sampled left a bit to be desired; egg and spam sandwich was alright but could use enhancement in seasoning. Overall, I'd return primarily for the Milk Tea! " (*Curated Review*)

" This cafe is a must-visit for every Milk Tea lover! The thick, velvety texture with a deep flavor profile is simply top-notch. Unfortunately, my food choice of curry chicken noodles was incredibly underwhelming with bland sauce. Marathon Cafe nailed it with their drinks but needs improvement in their food menu. I'll happily return for the tea alone! " (*Curated Review*)

" So glad I finally tried Marathon Cafe after hearing so many praises. The HK Milk Tea is worth all the hype – it was unmatched! As for the food, I had the fried rice which was decent but not memorable. A bit cramped during lunch hours but has a cozy vibe. Next time, I'll definitely prioritize the drinks over food again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Marathon Cafe was a delightful experience! The Hong Kong Milk Tea is a standout for sure – seriously, it makes your heart smile! The food menu, on the other hand, was hit or miss—in my case, the pork chop was on the chewier side. The environment is quaint, and definitely captures the local cafe style. I would return for a pick-me-up drink anytime! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is known for their renowned Hong Kong Milk Tea - and rightfully so! I had a spat with the food quality, though. The fried chicken wasn’t crispy and came out pretty cold. I appreciate their attempt at authenticity with the decor. While they have great drinks, they have room for improvement in their mains. I would still recommend popping in if you're after some milk tea. " (*Curated Review*)
