Gong Cha at 313@Somerset served authentic Taiwanese bubble tea to Singapore customers for 17 years, from its establishment in 2009 until the unexpected closure of all Singapore outlets on October 1, 2025. Founded in Taiwan in 2006, Gong Cha gained global recognition through word-of-mouth appreciation for freshly brewed bubble milk teas and uniquely customized service that allowed customers to tailor sweetness levels, ice amounts, and toppings.

The 313@Somerset outlet at #01-37 benefited from its location near the taxi stand, positioned slightly away from the main mall flow. This placement meant customers typically experienced shorter queues compared to other popular bubble tea outlets in busier Orchard Road locations. The convenience of quick service made it a preferred stop for shoppers and commuters passing through the Somerset area.

During its years of operation, Gong Cha became deeply integrated into Singapore's bubble tea culture, representing one of the pioneering Taiwanese brands that established the island's enthusiastic embrace of customizable milk tea beverages. The brand's commitment to quality ingredients and consistent preparation standards earned loyal followings across its network of Singapore locations.

The abrupt closure of all Gong Cha outlets across Singapore in October 2025 marked the end of an era for the Taiwanese bubble tea giant that had become a household name. Located at 313 Orchard Road, the 313@Somerset outlet served as one of many touchpoints where generations of Singaporeans experienced Taiwanese bubble tea culture before the brand's unexpected departure from the market.
