From the first view of the store front logo, we wonder a while… what should we call it ? 5201314? a talking cup of tea? or just 52OVE 13!4? but in the end we just call it 5201314 bubble tea shop.

why the weird naming of a bubble tea shop ? according to the owner, it was called a talking cup of tea because many couple are very shy to tell their feeling and love to partner. So by naming many of their bubble tea series with hidden meaning (especially in Chinese where many words do have same pronunciation or sounds the same), it can indirectly tell the other one something important. It is the hidden meaning that is sweet to the heart. The cup of tea do talk indirectly.

5201314 being a number have its meaning if you read it in Chinese. “520” means “i love you”, and “1314” means “forever in eternity”. The theme is self explanatory. It is “Love” being the main theme.
