A new tea bar in the heart of Antwerp
YOYO! Antwerp is officially open, right in the middle of the city at Leysstraat 17. The wait is over, and there is a brand new spot for anyone looking for their next favourite tea, in one of the most walkable, lively corners of the city.
An opening like this is always a moment, and YOYO! marked it in style: the first hundred people in line received a free goodie bag. If you missed the celebration, the good news is that the tea bar is here to stay, and it is already becoming a familiar stop for people passing through the centre. For YOYO!, it is also more than just another opening. It is the next step in a growing brand that keeps expanding to new cities, while holding on to what makes each location feel unmistakably YOYO!.
What YOYO! is all about
YOYO! is a fresh tea bar, built around made-to-order drinks that are as fun to look at as they are to sip. Think fresh tea, fruit-forward flavours and the kind of menu you want to work your way through one visit at a time. It is a concept designed for the moment: quick, colourful and easy to enjoy on the go or with friends.
Antwerp has plenty of places to eat and drink, but YOYO! brings something a little different to the mix. A tea bar with this much energy fits perfectly into the rhythm of the city centre, where there is always a reason to stop for a drink. The new location carries the same look, the same menu and the same feel that guests already know from other YOYO! spots, so wherever you find one, you know exactly what to expect.
Why speed and consistency matter for a tea bar
A tea bar in a busy location lives on speed and consistency. Guests want their drink made fresh, made right and made quickly, especially at peak times when the counter fills up and a queue starts to build. Every drink is made to order, which means the team behind the counter has to keep pace without letting quality slip.
That is a real operational challenge, and it is exactly where the right technology earns its place. A Self Order Kiosk lets guests customise their drink at their own pace, a Digital Menu Screen keeps the full menu clear above the counter, and the POS ties every order together so the counter keeps moving.
The same platform, now in Antwerp too
For YOYO!, the choice was an easy one. The brand already runs on Eatcard, so bringing the new Antwerp location onto the same platform was the natural next step. Rather than starting from scratch or piecing together separate tools, YOYO! opened its doors with a system the team already knows and trusts.
With ordering and payments running through one connected system, the team can keep the queue moving without losing the personal touch that makes a tea bar feel welcoming. Orders flow straight to the people making the drinks, so guests spend less time waiting and more time enjoying what they came for. From day one, the Antwerp counter ran as smoothly as if it had been open for years.
One system across every location
What makes it work for a growing brand like YOYO! is that Eatcard runs across all of their locations, not just this one. Every venue works from the same platform, which means the same workflow for staff, the same experience for guests and one clear overview for management across the whole business. Through Insights, that overview turns into real numbers, giving management a live picture of how every location is doing without having to chase reports from each venue separately.
That consistency is what makes opening a new location so much simpler. Staff who have worked at another YOYO! already know the system. Menus, pricing and promotions can be managed centrally. And because everything runs on one platform, YOYO! gets a complete picture of how each location performs, from the busiest hours to the best-selling drinks. It is the kind of setup that lets a brand grow without the operation becoming harder to manage with every new door that opens.
Come and taste it for yourself
