    Strawberry Fruit Tea and Mango/Passion Fruit Tea
    Alan D.

    I was on my way home from the Giants game after taking Bart and my friend and I were craving something refreshing for the drive back. This place popped up and we decided to give it a shot. The decor outside felt very anime-esque and I was correct when I walked inside. They had a few anime stuff for sale as well as pop it figures. The boba tea menu was located at the top of the counter and was a very simple menu to order from. The lady at the counter who helped is was very nice and answered all my questions. Strawberry Green Tea: This was my drink of choice. I included mango Star jelly as a topping. Overall, I found nothing spectacular about the drink. It felt standard compared to other places I have been to. I was trying to find something unique about its, but I could not find it. However, the drink was still refreshing and I quite enjoyed it. The place is very cute and I enjoyed the service. The drink I had was alright. It may be a while for me to come back, but I will say it was a good first try.

    The Boba is great, and I love the ambience. I'm glad to have a card shop close to me. I'm gonna have to start trying the food. The owner is super cool, and the people that I've met in There are super cool also. I wonder if they fry chicken like quicklys. I'm gonna have to check.

    I've tried a few slushies, and my personal favorites are the Purple Potion #9 and Super Saiyan. The service is excellent and quick. I'm happy to have this place nearby.

    The Emiy Coconut Creamsicle Honey What It Dew
    Sarah O.

    We love their drink called the Em!ly we get it all the time. We also get the honeydew as well for our dad. Their shop is so unique and fun you will walk out with not only your boba but also a trinket. Whether that be a pop funko anime stickers for your car or Sanrio merch or cards. It is a hidden gem.

    If you love TCG, Funkos, or anime merch--and crave boba while browsing--this place is a dream come true.

    Ordered my usual mango slush and didn't even notice the wait--too busy drooling over all the collectibles!

    Everything About this Boba establishment is absolutely perfect from the Hello Kitty, anime and sports decorations and Hello Kitty items that you can purchase to the amazing atmosphere that the owner and employees have created to the delicious drinks. This place is for sure a 100000/10. Now, this is what you call a Bay Area staple !!!!

    Selecting our drink took a minute because they have a good selection! Yummm!

    Service was fast and friendly. Our drinks were refreshing and the boba was soft! Definitely will come back!

    Cool pops and items

    I love supporting small businesses (and you should too!). Boba and Beyond has some of the best boba in town!!! I've tried plenty of places but this is by far my favorite spot. Everything on their menu is delicious! The only place I get my boba. Also they have tons of collectibles like pops, anime, trading cards, etc. great for birthday parents! super cool place!

    Strawberry Milk Tea
    Ronald N.

    A Ok quiet place. It was difficult to locate it since there was no sign telling what business it is. Here is what unique about this place...not only does it serves drink but plenty of toys sold here. I was greeted when I came inside the place.

    Boba and Beyond took over Sabai Tea and they still make the same great drinks as before, in addition to their new items. There is no sign outside, so you can easily miss it if you've never been there before. There are lots of funko pops and other merch displayed throughout the store. If you follow their Instagram page, they offer lots of great promos, like they did in May, where kids could bring in their good grades and get a free drink! I ordered the strawberry shortcake supreme and enjoyed it a lot! When Sabai was here, I loved getting the passionfruit and peach green tea! The owners are very friendly as well!

Maybe it was slow day for them, but they made those drinks quick. They're a little pricey for what it is, but what can you say? Inflation eh?

Definitely a place to hit up every 2 weeks when you decide to grocery shop at the next door business.

The drink maker did ask if I wanted some matcha powder on top which was a nice gesture I can't speak to the other Happy Lemon stores or if this is a general pricing issue but maybe I'm too used to many other more complex drinks at other solid boba chains to be at the same price but for premade green tea and cheese foam to be $6.75 seems a bit high. Granted I don't get boba often nowadays but maybe it's for the better if the prices are that high for what is a fairly straight forward drink Looking at the other drinks and those being in the same ballpark of $7 I would opt for a more complex/unique drink (mango/sago/matcha/etc) All to say, nothing wrong with the service, and I did come after work hours so didn't experience much of a wait but have seen this place with a relatively long wait on the weekends so YMMV My biggest gripe is what seems like a high price for a simple drink. I also will admit, I opted to get this drink hoping to see if the quality of the tea warranted the price but I would suggest a few of the options by Berkeley campus if you're looking for a place where the tea's subtle notes really shine with an equal price point. The one benefit to this place is the proximity to the Asian market and various food options

It's like a pho salad. It has tons of bean sprouts underneath the noodles and a lot of deep fried garlic pieces that make the noodles taste like Hong Kong crunchy noodles. At first I thought the egg noodles were fried. It was crunchy and there wasn't a lot of noodles but mostly a lot of sprouts and herbs. There were a lot of fatty barbecue pieces that I did not eat. I enjoyed one shrimp and one piece of squid. There were a ton of fake crab meat. The side soup was very nice and hot but had a taste of chicken fat and lots of salt and MSG. The noodle dish is extremely tasty and doesn't need any addition of soup. This was excellent on a hot day after a nice hike at Tilden Park. My husband ordered the same dish as me at my recommendation and loved it. My friend had their chow fun with seafood and barbecue. She enjoyed it and it was a generous amount so she took home half. This place is not shy about using MSG and the food is very salty and strong tasting. I find the dishes much cheaper than other Vietnamese restaurants. My dish was only $13.50. That's very cheap since it was full of herbs and seafood. Service is very efficient when they're not busy. No frills. Service is very slow when it's busy. Most of their customers are people who are coming here during their office lunch break during the weekdays. I noticed it was very quiet on a weekend. I'm still going to go back to my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Berkeley next time I am in the area, Phosho Dough.
