This place used to be good... I don't know what happened. The cashiers are these young kids who are rude and can't get the order right. Definitely won't be back and on top of the that they started to charge for sauce that's supposed to come with the food? And they don't even fill it up!? Disappointed this place I had gone down hill...
What a cute little spot! I was able to walk right in and place my order in no time. I got the Tokyo boba tea with lychee jelly and passion fruit boba! 10/10 - Yum! I ordered the blue sky for my little one with passion fruit boba 10/10 - He loved it! The popcorn chicken was absolutely yummy! 10/10 - While I was flicking a few pics my son devoured them, thankfully I was able to enjoy the few bites I had... Sheesh! This was a delight for sure, I seen so many other things that I will for sure come back to try!
The Aesthetic: Hip Filipino, Korean and Japanese counter service shop with great milk teas, snacks, comfort foods, and desserts. The booths felt very 90's, loved it! The Price: It's affordable! The food is very high quality and the portions are generous for the price. The Parking: There is plenty of parking throughout the plaza, I've never had trouble finding a spot. My Order: The Japanese chicken curry is so comforting. It's one of those staple dishes I cook in my home, but I love that I can order it here and get two meals out of it because the portions are large. I also enjoyed the lumpia and earl grey milk tea. I can't wait to try more. The Conclusion: I highly recommend this shop if you're craving yummy tea or comfort foods.
The icrecream is amazing! I love it every time I get it. This is my second time being here and I have nothing bad to say about the icrecream, at all! Items ordered/purchased: 2 orders of the Twist 1. The twist original 2. The twist rolled in toasted coconut The atmosphere was very "youth oriented" and "open". Everyone seemed to just come, have a good time. The restrooms were not very clean, which I understand with the access to the public but other than that, the ice cream tasted very well. I probably wouldn't sit and eat due to the cleanliness but this is one of those places, it's probably best to order and then head to your respective place. The customer service was really good though! They are super kind and nice people. They also allow you to sample the ice cream just to see if you would like it, before you order it, which is really nice! Overall, great place for ice cream, especially if you're looking for a lactose-free ice cream that still tastes amazing!
Binki Cafe- It's a hip and trendy spot in an old fashioned diner space... A unique place with tons of drink variations- from slushees to soda concoctions to Ube ice cream to milk tea and boba - anyone can find something to their liking here- Highlights: the popcorn chicken- piping hot, good portion size!!! The toasted coconut is a great ice cream topping! Lowlight: the bathroom is not pleasant, it's not somewhere you want to go unless absolutely necessary. Let's just put it that way.
Am so glad I returned here to try "New York", one of their unique signature drink...in the "Galaxy Tea Series". This fruity mixed tea is seriously fun! I'm normally not an avid fruit drinker, but their tantalizing mix managed to seduce me. In addition to the fruity mixes in this drink, I added the Boba, then this wild "popping" Lychee...and that itself was an amazing discovery! Can't believe I never tried the "popping" version of Lychee. Literally, the fruit just pops in your mouth...just sooooooo refreshingly good!! Then the fun part...this electric cube (looks like an ice cube?) that changes in color, from Blue to Purple to Pink to Red to Yellow to Green. THIS is a Must-Taste, Must-See drink...that is all. I also tried their Kakuni Buns (Pork Baos). It came in 2 small pieces, in paper box. Though not terrible, these small buns were not the best...and definitely not authentic in texture and taste. Still, not a bad option if you're looking for something smaller, yet substantial, to eat? Despite the disappointment in the buns, the "New York" Galaxy Drink more than made up for it. Besides, they have such an exciting menu of both foods and drinks to try! If this place existed closer to the southern end of Charlotte (where I live), I'd be coming here regularly.
My rating is based SOLELY on Halo Halo. I've had this on my list for quite some time and I decided to stop in one afternoon to give it a try. I'm a recent fan of Ube and I saw that Binki Cafe offered it. When I entered I was rather empty with someone grabbing their order before they stepped out. The business is clean and has an open concept. I told the person that I was new to Ube and that I wanted to try their Ube option. He told me about Halo Halo and explained what it was. I was very skeptical, it seemed like a lot but I decided to try it out. While waiting for my order a couple came in and ordered. They received their order before I did. While I was waiting for my order I realized that Binki offers more than just Halo Halo as an option for Ube. I could've just ordered soft serve Ube. I was wondering why the employee didn't mention that but sold me on the Halo Halo instead. Once I received my treat I was surprised. It looked like a dessert that a kid would order. I tried it and wasn't a fan at all! Beans, boba, gummy candy, and shaved ice with some other things mixed in were not what I was looking for. The dollop of ube on top was yummy. I wish I would've just ordered that instead. I'd revisit the company but the halo halo is an absolute no for me.
This unsuspecting dinner looking restaurant has delicious boba tea and a crunchy chicken popcorn that are a great way to start your dinner on a Friday evening. I had the passion fruit with lychee boba with less sugar and it was so refreshing. The popcorn chicken was savory and nicely seasoned. I also had the Japanese curry katsu and was perfect for the rainy evening. They were always busy when I was there with a young crowd. Their system is you pay when you order it and they'll call your order number to get your food. It's simple and effective. I would love to comeback to try the other dishes as well.
My husband and I recently went to North Carolina for a family wedding and the day we were leaving we decided that we wanted to check out the Boba out here and compare it to where we are from. Upon the recommendation of the family that lives out here we came to the Binki café. Great spot, plenty of parking in the front, I really appreciate that they have their menu on the front window so you don't have to enter and feel like you're in someone's way while trying to figure out what you want. It is a little noisy inside so be sure to speak up when ordering so the person at the counter can hear you. Other than that we had no issues with placing our orders, again they do you have another sign showing what their menu has to offer right at the cash register so you don't have to keep looking around for a menu. It only took about seven minutes for all of our drinks to be finished, pretty much as soon as we were ordering I saw an employee rush over to look at what order was being placed and immediately start working on the drinks. All of our drinks were delicious, very refreshing. I'm really glad we decided to try this place before leaving! As far as how it compares to California... I think our drinks were delicious in their own way from here, definitely not some thing that was better or worse but just very enjoyable and brought a wonderful end to our trip out here!
This is a two year old family ran business. I stumbled in by way of a Yelp Elite Event. Thanks Yelp for doing your part to keep me in the "know."The menu is huge, but talk about bells and whistles! They have glow in the dark ice. I ordered chicken Teriyaki and coconut boba tea with a bit of chocolate. The actual BOBAS were good, but the milk tea wasn't a deep coconut flavor. I also wish they had sugar free or fat free options. They encourage electronic tips on the checkout process. Beware.... They do cut a lot of corners. The boxes that they put the food in soak completely through in one hour. Upon my drive back to Concord, I ended up with a bag of thin gravy. The decor is is best described as "HIP." Parking is great. Not sure if I will be back. It is 3.5 stars for me.
Great boba, don't eat the food! I really wish they offered a lower rating than 1. I asked what were some good items on the menu and this is what they recommended.
Okay this reviews gonna get a little personal. I absolutely fell in love with Binki Cafe because I lived in Guam for 2 years of my life and loved the Filipino culture I had the extreme pleasure of being introduced to while living there! Coming to Binki Cafe and discovering the owner is Filipino and they offer authentic Filipino food I haven't had in decades, just made my entire day! I ordered the Thai tea soft serve ice cream in a vanilla cone, brown sugar boba, pancit bihon and lumpia!!! FANTASTIC! No complaints whatsoever. The food was amazing and so nostalgic for me. The inside has so many fun places to take cute pics for the gram. The owner and his wife are such a treat and everyone working there was super nice. Their menu is insanely impressive, there is literally something for everyone. I encourage you to maybe try something new here that you'e never heard of. I truly don't think you'll be disappointed. I can't wait to come back and try more items from their extensive menu. Love love love Binki Cafe!
Stopped into Binki Cafe to check them out from a Yelp event. I was very surprised to see the selection of teas, drinks, Tai Ice cream and even food. Since the aroma of the freshly cooked food was lingering in my nose I had to give it a taste: I ordered the teriyaki chicken with an upgraded charge of $2.50 for garlic rice (which BTW was yummy); my only critique is the containers are a little flimsy. FYI I ordered the Galaxy NY and it was yummy. I had a chance to speak with Ojohn and Jessica who were very informative. They told me that Binki Cafe is a family owned establishment, and they put a lot of love in their food and drinks.

They're located in a shopping plaza so they have plenty of parking. We stopped in on a Tuesday evening, so the place wasn't too busy, thankfully, for a weeknight. We had 6 in total for our party. I love the number of options that they have to offer and am glad they also had a variety of food. The wait staff was friendly and patient with the questions we had about our order. We did have to wait a while for our order of 7 deinks and 7 food items. The drinks came out first, then the ramen and then the noodles and rice. The drinks were delicious, and the galaxy teas were so pretty!! It was definitely difficult to select just one option to try. If you go with a large party and they're willing to share, I would definitely recommend going that route!! A must try spot if you're in the area. read more

Nice small cafe in a large shopping center in the University area with tons of parking. The artwork is cool. It is a little dark inside. The nuggets I got were a nice snack. The teas are definitely picture worthy and a nice added touch are the light up ice cube. The galaxy teas are refreshing just a little too sweet for my liking. There is some seating inside and some just outside the cafe. The staff here is very nice and helpful with any questions you may have on the menu and they offer their personal opinions on what they like. read more

Thank you Rebecca for your review. We are glad that you liked our…
This place could definitely use some redecorating. There was a mid match of themes going on and the place felt a little bit dingy. But don't judge a book by its cover! The food was delicious ! We had the chicken Katsu and Yakiudon. In both meals the chicken was tender and moist. The udon noodles were chewy and NOT mushy. The drinks were a bit too sweet even after changing the levels. I'll have to try the drinks again. BUT the STAR OF THE SHOW of the Soft Serve Ube!! ITS LACTOSE FREE and was delicious! It's didn't have a heavy ube taste where it just tastes like a potato but it had a more Ube Vanilla taste to it which I prefer. The mochis in the ice cream was also very soft and chewy! read more

What a fun place! Thanks to a partnership with Yelp Charlotte, I was able to order a free item. The menu can be a little overwhelming if you aren't prepared. I made sure to take a peek at it before arriving so I would be ready. The cashier was patient with us as we fumbled through ordering. Lol. For this visit I ordered the Seoul Galaxy Tea. It had beautiful layered colors topped off with a super cute LED ice cube. The drink had a delicious and unique flavor but was a little on the sweet side. My husband tried the Caramel Cafe Latte with almond milk. It was really good. I'm already looking forward to what I will try on my next visit. Thanks for offering this cool Yelp event! Pro-tip: Be sure to register for their rewards program with your cell number or email at checkout! read more

This is my most favorite restaurant. I moved to the area recently and was used to a Filipino community. Charlotte is lacking. I found this restaurant and have been back 3 times. The pancit is absolutely delicious!! I get the pancit canton, and my daughter gets the pancit bihon. We get the shumai, which is also delicious! The Shanghai egg rolls are more like what we are used to as lumpia. The menu lumpia, while flavorful, did not have meat in it, but again, it was delicious. I absolutely love this restaurant!! We will be going back several times a month. I don't know how they do it, but everything I tried I love! read more

Not sure what the deal is during the week but I went here on a Sunday and it was extremely busy! The line was out the door, there was not an empty table inside or out so I placed my order online and still had to wait a very long time for them to prepare a strawberry milky way when my food was ready.......unacceptable. The food was just ok, I had the pancit binon which was just rice noodles and vegetables, the lumpia were regular spring rolls, nothing Filipino about them. The strawberry milky way was very good, but I'll pass on the food. read more
I have been here quite a few times and I love it. I have started going here instead of Starbucks which is in the same shopping center. I am a big fan of their caramel caffe latte with a milk cap. It delicious. Every time I go it is consistently good. They have a huge variety of drinks to try and also food you can order as well. read more

Tried Binki Cafe for lunch yesterday and overall, we would definitely eat there again. Our favorite thing we got was the Pancit Bihon, it has such great flavor! Absolutely delicious, with a bit of heat. Tonkotsu Ramen & Miso Ramen were both good, the bamboo shoots were huge and unappetizing for us, but that's probably a preference thing not an issue. The only thing we didn't love completely was the Teriyaki Rice Bowl with Garlic Rice. The Garlic Rice was so overly garlic, it was too much, and the chicken was very dry. We also got Strawberry Milk tea with Boba (good), Thai Tea (delicious), and a Strawberry Mango Aurora smoothie- was disappointed with that one, it's supposed to be half/half and it was almost all Mango with only a little bit of strawberry (which was delicious don't get me wrong.. but my kid picked a smoothie because they wanted one of the multicolor options). The restaurant was clean and the cashiers were friendly. read more

A cute coffee cafe located in the University area. A place where you can get a different flavor of beverage than what you may find elsewhere. Love the New York mural on the walls. Illustrated in Black and white...very cool. The owner told me that they left New York a few years ago and moved to NC. So glad they did. Try the Galaxy teas. They come in light up cups. I posted the two beverages we got. They were awesome! For the menu check out their website. read more
I came here once before when they first opened and didn't enjoy my drinks so I haven't been back since but I decided to give it another try. I got the wintermelon milk tea and it was decent compared to my previous experience which was that the tea flavor was lacking and it was just way too sweet. Now, their tea flavor actually comes through now and I could even taste the wintermelon. I asked for less ice so that my drink wouldn't end up being watered down, but it still happened. As for the boba... if you're going to be known as a boba tea place, make sure your boba is up to par. Their boba seemed to be of different sizes and didn't have the proper consistent consistency. Some were way too soft, some were chewy, and some were too hard. Some would even just get stuck in the straw. Besides that, my friends wanted to try the turon and halo halo and these surprisingly didn't disappoint! These are definitely better shared. My friend said the turon tasted good and it sounded crunchy. The halo halo had a bit too much ice, but the flavors weren't diluted. I wish they used ube ice cream but their combo works. It was a better experience than I expected so give them a try! Service was prompt and staff came by to check up on us too! read more
The food was very tasty I order Pancit and Lumpia with a Strawberry flavored black tea that was really sweet but very good. The Pancit didn't taste authentic however they give you a large amount so it was definitely worth the it. The lumpia is more like a spring roll they don't add any meat in it. read more

We are out here trying to find the best boba spot & this one takes the cake so far. Probably the only place I'll get me an Oreo shake like drink for now. Very personable, honest & a lot of options. Plus they have food which is nice. Parking is easy and in the VIP section(right in front), a bit pricey but that's boba for ya and as far as the decor could use some changes to be more inviting but I was there for my tastebuds so boom. read more
I have been wanting to try ramen for some time and recently stopped by Binki Cafe. I love spicy food so I decided to try their spicy salmon ramen. The spice kind of hits you at the end and it's packed in the juice. There's some seaweed, fish cakes, scallions, and bok choy! The salmon seems a bit thin to me but overall I like it. I also tried a veggie lumpia with the Thai chili sauce. I loved them! I can't remember what veggies are inside but it's delicious. I plan to go back and try another ramen as well as the halo. read more

Why does Binki Cafe have to be on the other side of town??? I would be there once a week if it was closer to home or work. I get it the college is close by and they buying all the cool drinks but what about us ppl close to the SC border? Naw forreal we loved everything we ordered. The kids were in for a big surprise when they were told to pick an ice cream flavor to go along with their cotton candy. The cotton candy sits on top of a cone of ice cream and for $6/7 it's a real treat. I got one of the fruit teas. It was very sweet but delicious. The led ice cube really made my drink. The ice cube stay lit for many days afterwards. When I'm back in the area I will definitely stop again!! Binki Cafe 9211 N Tryon St Ste 5 Charlotte, NC 28262 Saturday August 10, 2019 9:30pm read more
I've had Binki so many times and have enjoyed everything I've gotten! I don't have a picture but their chicken teriyaki bowl is massive and has great flavor. Try the garlic rice because it's delicious! They also have a huge menu of drinks and desserts. Even though they aren't my favorite place to get bubble tea they do have some great flavors and I really like the Milky Way drinks. read more

I wanted some bubble tea and we were fairly close to here. I had heard good things, so we decided to give it a try. I knew I wanted to try a galaxy tea. I wasn't sure if it was just going to be gimmicky for the sake of Instagram, but it turned out to be really good. We got the Tokyo and loved it. We also got a caramel milk tea with a milk cap and boba. This was also good, but we liked the galaxy tea more. They were not stingy on the boba which was nice. The service was incredibly friendly. She answered all of our questions and gave us good recommendations. We got our drinks fast too. If you're looking for bubble tea, this is a great unique spot to try. read more

Street food galore! Great tasting take on Asian street foods. The Japanese fried chicken was our favorite. The takoyaki was also good. I got the Sakura boba was unique and we all liked it. The black sesame boba was also unique. Lots of options on food and drinks. We will definitely come back to try more! read more

What a great addition to the Charlotte area. I was stalking this place for months after I saw those letters up. Having been at the Binki in Queens, I knew there would be fun cotton candy treats and delicious teas. The fried popcorn chicken and waffle fries are a great treat if you need a salty snack to offset some of the sweet. I've only had the juice teas (the colorful ones with light up cubes, can't remember the exact name) and those were delicious even as a non tea drinker. My daughter gets all the other kind of teas (milk, etc) and she says it's very good. She has had tea at most of the places around town, and this spot (along with Tea Fusion Cafe) is where we regularly return to so I can spend some money. read more
