First visit here and was in awe with the secret garden ambience. Friendly staff and place is kept clean. Ordered the Tiger Sugar Boba Milk with mango jelly. Loved the brown sugary and creamy flavor with jelly and boba with every sip. 3 enclosed booth seating for privacy are available. Low lounging padded seats and a low lap top table for customer's convenience. Another area seating having that feeling you're out by a garden wall. The hanging planter box with vinyl natural looking plants from the ceiling added an outdoor garden look above a seating table.

Boba with no seal

We've given this place several chances, but the service remains terrible. Actually, there's practically no service at all. They have only one person in the back making drinks, and you're required to place orders on an iPad. If you have questions, you're stuck waiting forever for that one employee to come out and assist. Even when you order online, you'll end up waiting an extra 30 minutes after receiving the message that your order is ready.

Plant pot ice cream

Good drinks. Not so good? The wait. We had 4 drinks (2 milk teas, smoothie, flavored tea), 2 plant-pot ice creams and a flan... 20 minutes with no one waiting before us on a Saturday early evening. Lots of laughter coming from the kitchen but no drinks in sight. I stood at the cashier stand and someone came out from the back and asked if I needed to order something. I said no, I'm just waiting for our order that we placed 20 minutes ago... Her response to me was that they make their drinks fresh so it takes a while. I stood there dumbfounded. Doesn't everyone make their drinks fresh? I guess they were milking a cow in the back, seeping each flavored tea, cooking the boba and churning the ice cream. We were going to come back the next day to try out something different from their very extensive menu, but it's really not worth the wait. Perhaps they should remove some items from the menu and focus on making their "fresh" items instead.

Out of Boba Again

I love this place when they have what they sell available. Unfortunately, they are always between batches of Boba and the wait can last between 40 minutes to an hour for a drink. This is the norm for this location; hopefully management learns how to fix this issue. It seems very simple to keep multiple batches going so that there aren't long lags without prepared boba. Edited to one star after I waited for 40 minutes in the store for my drink before they called my number to tell me they were out of boba and it would be an hour before it was ready. I asked for a refund and they refunded the amount for my drink but kept the tip.

1102 Bubble Tea & Coffee is the first bubble tea place that I had ever been to. It started my love for bubble tea. It is some of the best bubble tea that I have had, and now I live in Dallas where i'm surrounded by bubble tea places. In or around Waco, there are not that many places you can get bubble tea. So it is a very special place that is unique for Waco. I would say that it is up to par with the Dallas bubble tea businesses. My favorite drink is the Tiger Sugar Boba Milk. Very tasty and reminds me of the black sugar boba drinks in Dallas. Come try this place out! It's super cute, has chills vibes, and k-pop music. What more could you want?

Super cute shop! They have great service and great boba. If they have egg rolls when you go, try them! They're really good. The dumplings are also good. They recently started being cashless, so card only.

Oolong Taro Milk Tea (smallest size)
Lucinda Y.

Out of the four -ish places that does Boba in Waco, this one is definitely the best quality,but also has the highest prices. They have a lot of versatile flavors and teas, and there's really no way you can go wrong with the choices. Don't be intimidated by all the options! I recommend the oolong black taro bubble tea. During COVID they are not doing dine in, but you can go in to order.

Strawberry Sorbet

1102 Bubble Tea and Coffee Newer Bubble Tea place in Waco. Interior decor is nice and very modern. Like the tent style semi private japenese cubicals. Strawberry Sorbet was very tasty and enjoyed. Milk Tea with Boba was a favorite of my daughters. Everyone welcomes this place to Waco!

My husband and I were in town visiting family and I wanted to grab a boba drink. I went on Yelp and found this place, the reviews didn't look too bad and it was on the way home. When we pulled into the parking lot it was small and the shop looked empty/closed. The shop itself is very cute, they have seating areas that are well decorated. The menu has a good selection of milk teas, smoothies, and slushies. I ordered a large Strawberry Milk Tea with boba and my husband got a Vietnamese Coffee. There were only 2 people working so service was really slow, it took about 20 minutes to get our drinks. This was all during the COVID-19 so I understand they're taking precautions by having fewer workers. The Strawberry Milk Tea was pretty good, I really enjoyed my drink. The boba had a nice chewy texture. The sugar level was a little sweeter than I would have liked, but it was ok. My husband's Vietnamese Coffee had more ice than coffee (see pictures) so I took 1 star off for that. Overall, it's a cute boba shop that has IG worthy decorations, the drinks are pretty good depending on what you order. Ice level is definitely a problem that needs attention. Will I come back? Ehh not sure how I feel about it.

Maybe it's time to figure out a more efficient way to make a drink?!?! Drink selection is wonderful, plus the place is super cute. However, the wait is ATROCIOUS. When we walked in, there were three people waiting. Two of them received their order 10 minutes after we placed ours and the third waited 25 min. after we arrived. How long had they been waiting before we got here? We're way past 30 min in, as you can see from our ticket and the time this posted, and still don't have our drinks.

Black tea with lychee and agar boba.
Cynthia C.

So happy to finally have a bubble tea place in Waco - definitely better than the current situation of ordering bubble tea from an Asian restaurant. Since it's still pretty new, I'm keeping my hopes up that this place will only continue to improve. I really hope they have the option to change the "your order's ready" buzzers from the mildly disturbing beeping to a softer vibration instead. I went to place my order of oolong lychee milk tea, but the cashier told me that people "don't order lychee with oolong because it's a strong tea." She offered to let me try the oolong to see what she meant but handed me a small cup and said "here's the black tea" and then proceeded to input my order for black tea with lychee...I enjoyed the drink but felt like this was pretty rude on her part. The milk tea was a bit too sweet and had more milk than I normally like in my tea so any flavor of the tea was overshadowed. I did enjoy the agar boba, which is basically just crystal boba if you've seen it by that name at other places.

Coconut black tea with boba
Peacy N.

The place is cozy, the drinks yummy and the employees are so nice and helpful. I picked up my kids from school and made a stop here for some bubble tea. We got 5 black tea with bubbles, one coconut, one strawberry and 3 mangoes. I called for the order because I didn't want to bring them all in. The lady that took my order was nice enough to order to bring me my order at my car. I so appreciate this.

Vietnamese Coffee

Staff is friendly but the wait to get your drink is SUPER LONG. The flavor of the drinks was good so it made up for the wait.

Magnolia Press was our first stop and entry point to the Magnolia Market while in Waco. The line…read morewas out the door, but moving fairly quickly, taking us about 10 minute from outside to the counter. They were controlling the line and crowds well. Magnolia Press is their house coffee shop serving up all the coffee house classic beverages and snacks. Beverages were all the basics with a few specialty drinks, both hot and cold. The food was standard breakfast sandwiches and pastries. Prices for everything were moderate, but expected. I went with an iced mocha and chocolate croissant, while my partner went with a breakfast croissant. The food came out a few minutes before the drink, so we munched on the goods while we waited for the coffee. The food was good and the drink was tasty. It hit the spot for sure! The flow can get a bit backed up depending on how busy the baristas are...and they were busy! We waited a longer time after ordering than we did in line to order, but neither wait was egregiously long. Once we got the coffee, we made our way outside to the courtyard. We passed the small, but cute dining room. The space is gorgeous, perfect coffee house and Magnolia vibes. Overall, great entry point to the market. Lovely vibes and decent coffee!

What originally caught my attention was the idea of a Narnia-style wardrobe you could walk through, which sounded magical and totally unique. It was early in the day when I arrived, so parking was easy to find along the side streets and nearby areas. From the moment I walked in, I was hooked. The décor is absolutely charming--open and airy, yet filled with books everywhere you look. It feels like a place you could easily spend hours exploring. The layout is really well thought out: newer releases are toward the front, there's a cozy seating area where you can flip through books, and as you move further in, you'll find the café on the right and restrooms on the left. One of my favorite things about this place is all the little nooks scattered throughout the store. They're perfect if you want to study, work, or just escape into a book without distractions--it really gives you that "your own little world" feeling. There are also tables for laptop work and comfy couches for more relaxed reading. I'll admit, I got so distracted by the incredible book selection and all the cute extras--journals, stickers, mugs, clothing, and other fun finds--that I completely forgot to look for the wardrobe! Definitely something I'll have to come back for. I did try one of their seasonal drinks--a cold brew with banana cold foam--and it was delicious. A perfect treat while browsing. Overall, this place is a gem. Whether you're into children's books, history, poetry, or trending reads, there's something for everyone. If you're a book lover or just passing through Waco, I highly recommend stopping by. It's well worth the visit.

I was so happy to find out that they now take reservations using the Open Table app. It was super easy to use and I booked my reservation a few weeks prior to getting into Waco. We were greeted by the friendly hostess who seated us promptly since we had reservations. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. I ordered the breakfast sandwich and my husband ordered the farm breakfast. We ordered the kids breakfast for our 3 year old which came with pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon. We also ordered a side of biscuits with strawberry jam. We got our food hot and made fresh to order. The croissant sandwich was filling and delicious. The croissant was super fluffy and light. Everything was perfect!!! Our son told us that he loved his pancakes. Our waiter came by frequently to check on us and make sure everything was made to our liking. 10/10 recommend for their high quality service and food. We will be sure to continue to keep coming back again and again whenever we're in Waco.

Thrst specializes in carefully crafted lattes with the highest quality beans that's expertly roasted locally. It's also a small business, and if you follow my reviews, you know that I'm all about supporting small businesses as opposed to the large chains. The menu offers signature drinks such as their Cafe de Olla and Mexican Mocha. They also offer the more common drinks like latte, americano, cappuccino and teas. They also have delicious looking pastries! I wasn't sure what to order and the owner, Andreas, took the time to describe some of their signature drinks to me. I decided to get a medium Hot Café De Olla Latte, which is described as the perfect blend of espresso, piloncillo, cinnamon and oat milk. It was smooth, creamy and divine! I also ordered a cinnamon twist, and it was absolutely delicious! The interior is rather large, with a coffee bar and tables throughout. Seems like a great place to study or hang out with friends. Another great thing about this place is that they open early, like 6:30am on weekdays. Many of the other local coffee shops open later. The only drawback is the parking sitch. It seemed that many of the spots nearby were reserved for specific businesses. I didn't find any specifically for Thrst, so I had to park down the street and walk a little ways. Overall, this is a solid coffee shop and I highly recommend supporting this small business!
