Last stop before heading home...at this juncture, I was a bit thirsty for so liquid refreshment, so I stopped by a neighborhood shop...Boba Bites and Tea. Initially, I was thinking more of a black tea, but the store manager, Lynn, talked me into a traditional milk tea. She provided a sample of the milk tea and I was sold. The traditional milk tea was refreshing with a perfect balance of tea to milk. It was rather large in size, which I shared with my hubby. Interestingly, the container was shaped like a heart with a little red hard stopper. The container was so stinking cute! It almost made you not want to drink the traditional milk tea. The shop is open until 9 pm. At this time, there a few customers in the shop. Overall, a very chill vibe... read more

This is a very cute and nicely decorated shop with boba and snacks. The cafe has games and is a great hangout spot. I had the ube matcha tea with tapioca and the mango panna cotta. The ube in my matcha was quite grainy and had an unexpected consistency (I assumed the drink would be smooth). Taste wise the matcha was delicious. The mango panna cotta was very light, refreshing, and not overly sweet. The dessert was a delicious sweet treat. The staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. I enjoyed my drink and dessert and will definitely be back. read more

This place is a gem! I got a Taro/Ube Vietnamese iced coffee and the woman made it extra strong for me. She was very kind to us. It was a nice surprise than compared what I expected- it had a salty cheese layer on top and it had real taro on the bottom. The cheese cream was delicious with the coffee. read more

I was going on a bike ride and came across this shop and thought I'd stop by for a sweet treat! We loved how they had board games to play if you wanted to hang out with friends and children's toys too. I got the passionate tea (passion fruit +mango) with fruit jelly (rainbow jelly) and it was really good! I'm not sure if you can change the sweetness but it wasn't too sweet for me, although I'd like to be able to adjust it. We also got the cookie croissants which came in two pieces (top and bottom half with a cookie freshly baked on top) and it was really yummy. Will definitely be stopping by more often! The lady in the front was really sweet too. read more

The nicest people work here! It's the best roasted pork bank mi - so delicious. Milk tea with boba or bursting is my go to. Bring the kids too. Lots of toys in the book shelves to keep them occupied. This adorable, family run cafe is a must visit! read more

What a wonderful local boba shop with so many creative drink options and some desserts available as well. The family who owns the shop is very kind and helped with a lovely event for my mom's workplace for Lunar New Year. My mom and I visited recently and got a passionfruit tea, taro milk tea, and a mango milk tea. They were all really tasty flavors that come in a cute heart shaped cup! There is a cute indoor space with some seating as well and plentiful parking in the lot outside. I will definitely be back to visit again and will think of them for future events! read more

Nice little shop, just tried the boba and it was really good! Super soft and chewy and a lot of customizable options, I got the oreo ube with tapioca boba and my boyfriend got the crème brûlée taro with tapioca boba. I liked both but would probably explore more taro flavors next time. Want to come back and try their food and other snacks. Also the cups were in a cute heart shaped cup! Definitely a place to check out if you're nearby. read more

How sweet are they?!?! It was our first time trying this location! The attentive service was great! They asked if we had questions and once the drinks were done they brought them to us! Which is so kind! The menu is a-little hard to read but you get around to it. They even had board games and a lot of tables so this is great place to hang out or study. I recommend stopping by for a drink! They had snacks too but we didn't get any, next we will though! read more

Boba Bites & Tea - Forever In Love & Very Berry Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

My partner and I were pretty excited to have a boba shop so near us, and having tried it 3 times along with their banh mi's, I am sad to say that we are unsure on whether we will return. The store not pictured is really nice, I'd say it's a good space to work or meet up with some friends, or have a board game gathering. Service up front is super sweet, staff are super friendly. They have lots of game options, and if you are not picky with boba tea or banh mi, then this is the spot for you! If you're more of a boba tea connoisseur like myself, I don't recommend getting their tea. I can't say for the other non tea drinks, but we have tried going here for 3 times thinking the tea would be brewed differently, but ended with the same results. I'm unsure whether it's the tea brand they've used, or if they brewed it for too long, but it tasted awfully bitter! The third time I even tried to get it with passion fruit but it tasted so bitter that I just couldn't finish it after heading out. The banh mi's (not pictured) didn't hit the spot either for us. We got the pate and the special combo, I wish we took pics but it looked sad and bare. The side pickled veggies were too strong and marinated, and my pate baguette was pretty bare, just pate and lots of butter spread in it. It felt heavy after eating it, and it didn't feel like an authentic Vietnamese banh mi to me. They are still pretty new, so hopefully their tea brewing will improve over time. Overall, I do really find the space a really good space to connect with groups of friends or just solo work. Staff are super sweet! If you're not picky with your banh mi's and boba's, go for it but my partner and I will have to pass on the banh mi's. We may possibly give boba teas another chance in the future. read more

This is my 3rd time at Boba Bites and Tea and I have to say it's hard to pinpoint what's best about it between the excellent and timely service, quality both milk and fruit teas and some of best bahn mi I've had in Austin. Truly a neighborhood gem worth checking out. read more

Went to this area for Asia cafe and stumble to this bubble tea ... plenty of bubble tea in austin , and this place price is not very competitive , it's actually pretty pricey compare to cocos or even fengcha, and taste mediocre I ordered their banhmi roast pork , but what I get is more like stewed pork in soy , I don't mind the price , about $6-8 but I felt cheated Def not going back read more

Boba Bites & Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I absolutely love the feel of this place! It feels like old Austin - of people getting together and opening something new in a neighborhood (like boba)! As this place is relatively new, I'd love to give it a second chance. I enjoyed that the cups are heart shaped and that they had some fun flavors (passion fruit!), but the tea flavor was a little weak, and the boba was a little hard. I look forward to trying it again, soon! read more

A new boba bubble tea spot in North Austin! Going through some growing pains with new staff that don't know what's on the menu and a small menu. Unique combinations of flavors that I haven't seen before! They cups are these cute heart shaped and topped with a heart stopper. Tge strawberry chocolate milk tea was yummy! I did ask for 25% sugar. It was still quite sweet, but probably due to the chocolate drizzle on the sides of the cup. They forgot my boba and I also asked for light ice and the ice was to the top of the cup... I'll blame the new staff for now. The classic black tea was good, they got the no sugar, boba and the light ice right on this one! The decor is cute but not over the top which I've come to expect and love in boba places. Will have to come back and reassess some of the shortcomings. read more

Ube Milk tea: I love this ibe creamy concoction. The boba pearls are cooked perfectly with enough chewiness. Pork Banh Mi: I was kinda expecting fried pork (based from the picture) instead of a sweet char siu like pork. But overall it taste good. I also like that they separated the veggies so any customers will have an option to add/remove veggies that they like. Good portion size too. read more

The tiger boba milk tea was amazing with not too chewy boba. I got the pork belly sandwich on ladies recommendation and it is great. Will come back for a treat me day. Super clean and light feel with great service. read more

Very polite people and delicious food!! Banh Mi Roast Pork hands down favorite!! Would definitely be coming back again and again!

Recently moved from Little Saigon, where there are endless choices of banh mi, I haven't found a good banh mi spot until Boba Bites. I happen to be around in the area and needed to kill time. Seeing that the menu was in Vietnamese, I figured maybe these might be good..and yes it was. Great pillowy bread, delightfully soft pork (heo quay) and authentic pate. Will definitely be back because I am tired of eating white washed banh mi in Austin lol. read more

The boba was amazing! There was so many options and they all looked so awesome. I went with my family and we got a chocolate boba, a matcha milk tea, & and iced coffee. They were all amazing The service was so friendly. They were so awesome and when we asked for the iced coffee to be less sweet they did it perfectly. The vibe was so chill. There was lots of fun games and I loved the music. The chairs were so comfy and it just felt so homey. Some of the teas come in this cute little heart shaped cup and it was absolutely adorable!! Overall I loved them so much and I totally recommend it. read more

Boba tea is consistently great, bahn mi sandwich is delicious and great value, staff is super friendly!

Didn't know what to expect, but it's actually decent boba! A good array of flavors, and we both thought the creme brûlée tops were a nice touch. They also serve bahn mi's as well so we'll have to try that next time. Friendly staff. Bonus points because the cups are just too cute! read more

The heart cups are so cute! Very unique to any other boba places. Large menu variety with lots of drinks and snacks. I got the takesumi milk tea with crème brûlée and the beauTea fruit tea. Was not a fan of the fruit tea, a little too overcrowded with fruit pieces that you can't really drink with the straw. Takesumi milk tea was pretty good, tastes like soy milk, the crème brûlée topping was really nice as well. Quick & friendly service. Support local businesses y'all! ツ read more

Ran across this place and gave it a try. Got the roasted pork belly sandwich and the taro root tea. The sandwich was delicious with an amazing fresh bread and a good mix between sweet, salty and savory with the pork belly, cilantro, and whatever dressing they included. The taro root tea had a great taro paste that made their variant stand out. There's a lot of noise out there in the boba world but this place was the truth! read more

I didn't try the food here, but I came for the heart shaped boba cups! The drinks were mediocre, I got a strawberry green tea; can't go wrong with that. The service was friendly and they had plenty of board games that were available. Ambiance wise, it was a chill small boba shop, appropriate for your group of friends to come, play with cards/board games, and just hang out. Three stars overall for the friendly service and board games being available. read more

The boba? 4 or 5 out of 5-stars. The sandwiches? 3 out of 5 at best. The cuss words blaring from the songs they played while eating there with my daughter? 0 out of 5. Maybe don't play unedited rap songs when kids come in? read more

The boba teas are absolutely gross and trash. I saw the cashier pour giant portion of flavored syrup into my drinks, despite telling her I don't want anything too sweet. Nothing is made fresh or from scratch. It's just condensed syrup with water. I had to pour half of mine out and dilute it with water. It is like drinking syrup. It's not even mixed evenly. Gross! read more

Our family enjoyed the boba teas that we got here. The drink selections were different and more unique than the average boba places that we frequent. It was nice to try new flavors. Hubby got a vietnamese coffee boba and was very happy. I got a Forever In Love in a breeze style that was delicious and refreshing, with lots of lychee and strawberry fruit on top. Their heart shaped cups are cute too. Kids were pleased with the caffeine-free options here too. Can't wait to go back to try other flavors and maybe their banh mi! read more

This place is so good, I went for the first time and was blown away by my taro boba tea. I asked for it blended which she said is something they serve by a certain name I've forgotten now. But it had like a sweet caramel like sauce in it and a salted crème top and boba and all the stuff. It was so good, a real crafty drink. Will absolutely come back read more

the roasted pork banh mi was nice for a change. Bread was crispy outside and airy inside. The pork skin was crispy and tasty but some pieces were super chewy I had to take them out. It's nowhere near as full as the picture they post everywhere so just beware of that. It taste ok so I don't mind, but definitely a bit pricey. I also got a strawberry flavored drink and love the look, but the taste is just too sweet to like. read more

It's a cozy and welcoming place, perfect for hanging out with friends or studying. Their menu is pretty straightforward and has a lot of options too. I also love that the cups don't have the plastic film on top and instead have a (likely) recyclable lid. Definitely recommend read more
