“This past summer, a lot of our customers drove to Hyde Park from West Chester, Kenwood and OTR to buy boba tea and they requested we open one closer to them,” he said. “I looked at a couple of places and Tylersville Road in West Chester seems to be a great location with a good population to serve our customers in the area while introducing boba and our food offerings to the Greater Cincinnati area, so I decided on that location first. However, I will be looking forward to be opening another one next year in OTR or Kenwood.”

The full menu for Milk Jar Cafe's West Chester location has yet to be finalized, he said. Size limitations mean it likely will not include ice cream, but will include bubble tea, poke and grilled food, Lin said.
Hiring will start several weeks before Milk Jar Cafe’s summer opening, he said.
