This place was adorable! I really enjoyed my experience here. So much different types of menu options. I got my first Chè here and it did not disappoint! They have all types of boba tea as well. My drink had the halo halo mix and the unique flavor of the ube and purple yam was just what I wanted! I definitely recommend this place to anyone who was a different type of dessert experience. Workers are very friendly and helped me make the right choice! Can't wait to come back and try some more flavors.
Stopped by here for a Yelp event and got to try two different drinks. I was so excited to try these out since I have never tried Boba before. I will say this was a good first experience! Both drinks were very different from each other but both very full of flavor. I had to get something with mango in it because I love mangoes and it tasted like it was a freshly squeezed mango! I also got one of their popular Matcha tea, and it was not what I was expecting, but it was still extremely tasty. Definitely something I would order again!
This place is awesome! I came here once last week and had to come back and show my wife as it's that good. I ordered the brown sugar bubble tea both times. It's amazing but be sure to ask for light ice. The decor of the restaurant is really authentic and provides for a great experience. Next time I want to try some the Vietnamese desserts as they also look delicious.
Really enjoyed my first visit to Akoko during their soft opening! The space is beautiful. Soft greens and browns makes for an inviting atmosphere and there's plenty of room in case there's a crowd. The little girl working the register was so helpful with making my choices with me. I went with the brown sugar milk swirl with honey boba, garlic soy chicken bites, and the Che coco leaf dessert. The boba was everything I want in a boba tea - so yummy, I want to try more! The chicken bites were a bit overcooked but still really good! The Che was unlike anything I've ever had before. The Vietnamese dessert contains red and white beans which is a first for me but at least I can say I tried it! I can't wait to return to try more boba off their menu - next time a fruity flavor!
Ladies and gentlemen, they have finnaly open!! The interior is beautiful and the service was fast. I wanted to try everything on the menu and I will probably by the end of the year! Che is a like a Vietnamese snow cone. Serve with fresh fruit and jelly. So good!! So if you're In the area stop by and give it a try!!!
If the parking lot is full in front of the shop, there is ample parking to the side of the small shopping center. When you walk in, the decor is the first thing that will capture your eye. This has to be the cutest place. This is the perfect little hang out for a young group (even the older crowd ). They have ample seating. The menu isn't too overwhelming. They have a nice selection of teas, smoothies and small food orders. The order counter is closer to the back and the pick up window is across from the cute boba statue. The cotton candy machine is so unique. There was an option for cash or card. It didn't take my card. A nice gentleman said it took cash only, it was $6. If you need to get change, they have it at the counter. The machine is so adorable. It is pretty cool to watch it spin your cotton candy. You can pick the shape you want. It didn't come out just like the picture, but it was still extra delightful. The peach jasmine tea was so good. The only thing I didn't like was that I drank it all too quickly. I almost bought another one, but I stopped myself. My daughter said her brown sugar milk tea was really tasty. She loved the boba. They have a selfie wall and it was super clean. I've already texted my friends and told them about this place. I literally can't wait to go back.
What a cute new place in Greensboro! I stopped in for the soft opening and to try a Thai tea milk tea for a caffeine boost. It's definitely that! They use a high quality tea from Vietnam and you can taste the difference. It's a bold tea, even for a Thai tea, it packs a punch. But the flavor is great! The honey boba was chewy and petite... everything I wanted. The employees were very nice and helpful with questions and the environment is so cute! There's plenty of seating and this would be a great place to meet up with a group. Not only do they have delicious boba tea... but they also have Che desserts, popcorn chicken and fish balls. I'm looking forward to trying those next time!
I'm from out of town visiting some of my friends here near Greensboro area and have to go try this place out since all of my friends are talking about it. Delicious tea and love their tapioca boba, so nice and chewy. Variety fruit tea, Che desserts and milk tea choices. My friends love their chè but I haven't have a chance to try it yet but I'll be back next time when I'm back to NC. Staff is very sweet there. I'm highly recommended this place. Ps: Thank you for keeping the restroom so nice and clean. That is one of the first things I judge and this place is very clean compared to other places I have been!
Happy to find out Akoko has opened in triad area! I tried it when I was in Boston. I ordered the Che Halo Halo, replaced jackfruit with lychee. Love everything with one recommendation to make sure the crushed ice / shaved ice is really crushed or shaved when it was served, they melt together formed a giant ice cube that made it hard/messy to dig in. Overall I love Che dessert and combination of everything, not too sweet, good to have in hot day. We also tried 2 drinks and 2 snacks - dragonfruit lychee tea, green Thai milk tea, salt and pepper flavor popcorn chicken and takoyaki. Both fruit and milk tea have syrup in default ingredient, even I ordered with 0% sugar, the dragonfruit tea came out too sweet for my taste, but the green Thai milk tea is perfect. A good alternative and more refreshing than traditional Thai milk tea with just a little hint of sweetness. Love the salt and pepper popcorn chicken, the batter is thin, chicken is juicy, a good snack to go with any drink here. Takoyaki is good if anyone loves it, for me, it is quite the same as others. The place is very clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Would definitely come back to try other Che and drinks!
I was pleasantly surprised when I stepped into this cute spot. It was so bright and cute! So many wonderful places to take pictures. I always order taro root when I get boba tea. I ordered taro and it was cool. Nothing special. I also had the green cake and it was absolutely disgusting. The taste and texture was not it.
I've been waiting for this dessert place to open for a long time. I follow them on Instagram. I saw that they were having a soft opening this week and decided to try them. I tried the Che Halo Halo dessert and ordered the mango passionfruit smoothie for my friend. They were both very good and refreshing. The drinks tasted so fresh. I am not quite sure if they used fresh fruits or not but I couldn't tell the difference!! I will go definitely go again and try there other drinks. The interior is very elegant and charming.
Glad I discovered this spot thanks to a Yelp event! It's close to my house but tucked away in a shopping center off the main road so I likely would not have seen it. I'm not generally a "let's get Boba" type of chick but my daughter likes it; therefore, I've been to a couple other places in town. I enjoyed this one the most. I tried the Spring Blossom (sparkling water tea with Raspberry lychee garnished with orange and mint) and it was amazing (once I stirred it...rookie mistake). The snack items are all tasty as well. We tried the sweet potato fries (two thumbs up), soy garlic popcorn chicken and the curry fish balls. The curry fish ball were something new to me and I'm glad to report I loved them. They reminded me of the texture and flavor of a large scallop and the orange curry sauce was very flavorful without being too spicy (if you're not into spice, you should be fine).
I'm a big Boba fan and I personally didn't know this location even existed. I'm now happy that I do! Very clean location with a chill vibe and light music playing. The Boba drinks were what I'm accustomed to, I was highly pleased. You have to go see for yourselves!

Visited Akoko yet again, mostly to introduce visiting family to a new cuisine. The place is cute cafe vibes as usual. There was a mortal combat 3 old style gaming console too this time, which we really enjoyed. We ordered the usual - Chè Coco Leaf and Chè Halo Halo. Loved the Ube ice cream so refreshing, and the pandas jelly is always a favorite too. Overall, a great experience yet again. read more
Akoko is certainly laid back inside which is nice during the summer! They serve a diverse menu of wonderful drinks. I was first tipped off on this local spot from an Elite event--thank you Erik. Since then, it's remained as a go-to for various boba drinks, smoothies, and teas. My favorite is their Vietnamese coffee with boba as it's just the right combo between sweet and coffee! Other honorable mentions are the brown sugar milk tea, Thai tea, and mango-passion fruit tea. Their menu also includes small bites such as popcorn chicken and fried dumplings. Overall it's a well-rounded place that hits all the marks such as a great atmosphere, good service, and great drinks! read more

Akoko has quickly turned into our guilty pleasure! From not knowing that this vietnamese drink Che exists to craving it every few weeks we have come anlong way. The restaurant interior is done super well! Its very inviting, friendly and relaxed. The open space makes sure it does not feel weird if you hangout for too long. The location is far for me but its worth the drives we got of their pre made drinks with all the fixings and it was great. I personally love the combination of the beans paste, with the. Coconut milk and the chew that comes from the jelly. They are doing a great job and I hope they keep on going. If you have not tried Che yet you really really should as I knownyou will absolutely love it! read more

AKoKo is a hidden gem! The atmosphere is inviting, the service is friendly, and the drinks and snacks alike are very tasty! I always try and order something I've never had before and am very impressed by the unique flavor profiles and combinations in their drinks. I definitely recommend coming here! read more
Super cute shop, just in a completely hidden location off gate city boulevard. Plenty of seating and sunlight. Ample choices to choose from and toppings. I got the Summer Shade, nice fruity drink. The only thing that kinda caught me off guard were the passion fruit seeds. read more

One of the best Thai teas I have had. Boba was great. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. The person helping with the orders was patient with my kids and helped us through our order. Service was fast. Inside was great it was clean. Had games to play plenty of seating very spacious and there was different types of seating for different folks. read more
So much a cute place! They did such a great job with the interior design, I love all the neon signs. The drinks were awesome, usually boba tea makes me feel sick due to all the sugar but this one was great. I highly recommend the lavender milk tea because it was really good. My husband got the passionfruit one and he also really enjoyed it. We weren't hungry so we didn't try any of the food, but it looked like they had some yummy snacks! read more

This place is a whole vibe! It's so cute! Everything was super clean and just so neat! Even the bathroom! The girl that took my order was very patient and answered all my questions since it was my first time. I got the summer fruit tea, and it was sooooo good! I think I've found a new place to come to and drink my fruit teas and relax some! They even have games you can play. read more

Came here on a peaceful Monday afternoon. We love their decorations. Very nice, soothing & spacious ambiance. The fruity fizzle/ sparkling water drink is very good with unique flavor combinations. The jasmine milk tea is truly authentic flavor-whereas most boba tea I've tried tastes more bland. You can really tell that they used high quality products, so I have no complaints about the price. Very worth it. The food are good too. I hope that the business is doing well because we can't find much of the place like this here around this area or maybe it just because of me new to NC :) Definitely 5/5. read more
Friendly service and the best drinks in town! I can taste that the drinks are better quality than some of the other shops in the area. I'm tired of a majority of other tea jobs tasting like straight-up powder and artificial flavor. I love bubble tea, but their kale smoothie is delicious! The only thing I didn't like was that they charge extra for the boba pearls. It can get a little pricey! read more

Words cannot describe how good this place is . I wish I could give them A++++. Every time I came , I tried different drinks and they are all unique , beautiful and simply the best . My favorite are lavender milk tea , brown sugar , Che SG, Hotluu , halo halo , Thai , fizzles with lime and mints . Did I mention the cleanliness and modern space ? I can bring someone there and date 24/7 . I am kidding ! read more
