    Cookie Butter matcha milk tea
    Peter H.

    TL;DR - New matcha series (delicious and unique flavors). Really really pretty drinks. Popcorn chicken and sticky chicken bites are delicious appetizers. Charbroiled ribeye is a must! Get less sweet for your drink here if you normally do that at any other place! I'm so glad I finally got to try this place out. They got a lot of options on their food and drink menus. The thing that stands out about this place is their drinks. They're really really pretty lol (and delicious of course). The food was good and they got the classic appetizers one would hope to find at a milk tea store. Their entrees are awesome too! The drinks that we really enjoyed were their new matcha series. The screaming strawberry matcha milk tea was really good. The cookie butter matcha milk tea was my favorite. I have a soft spot for biscoff cookies and this one was just... so good lol. The screaming blueberry matcha milk tea is a must for blueberry lovers. You don't typically find this flavor, so it was really cool to try it out. NOTE: the drinks run on the slightly sweeter side so if you usually get less/50%/30% sugar in your drinks, then definitely do that here as well. I was happy to see they have popcorn chicken! It's a classic milk tea store appetizer. Their sticky chicken bites were also good (sweeter version). The charbroiled ribeye was my favorite. I love ribeye lol The service was quick and the staff were so friendly. Ambiance is nice. There is inside and outside seating. Good place to study and hang out with friends if that's what you're looking for!

    Boba Indeed has been the best spot to study and enjoy great affordable drinks. I have been coming to this spot for months now and have enjoyed diving into their selections of drinks. No matter what I order whether it's a frappe, matcha, milk tea, slushes, or even their unique and delicious creations the service is SO FAST. When it's not too busy I have ordered a Thai Milk Tea and before I decided where I wanted to sit my order was being called up. Whenever I see Mont or Bella working I know I'm going to have any question of mine answer so sweetly and my order prepared so quickly. Recently they've made great renovations to the establishment. The sitting area outside has these cute chairs and is well shaded and makes for a relaxing spot to study and talk to friends. Their music plays classic hits from the 2000s that gives such a nostalgic vibe to the entire place and I return weekly if I ever need a place to focus on my studies and online classes. I have tried every lemonade at Boba Indeed and it has been such a refreshing order during this hot L.A. Summer. My favorite creation is the Up All Night as it's their espresso frappe topped with whip cream, chocolate chips, and coffee jelly that really settles my coffee cravings. You have to try their Small Bites! The mozzarella sticks are my go to. They're made fresh to order and the cheese pull I get from the first bite is extremely satisfying and delicious with their ranch.

    3 smoothies and the sides

    Came here on a lunch break with the ladies, we all ordered a smoothie and a selection of their sides, the popcorn chicken is a must, so juicy (thigh meat) and the coating is light and crispy. The gyoza, is also very tasty, nice and crispy on one side and soft on the other, so good! The calamari, did have a fishy taste and was rubbery, not my fav, it was crispy from the coating, but would not do it again. The mozzarella sticks looked promising, but the cheese pull was not present, and the coating lacked seasoning. The smoothies were outstanding, glad I made it a large. We had the strawberry banana and my friend had the pina colada, which she loved. We will be back to try more of the sides and a different flavor drink. Service was great, and the music selection was relaxing.

    I tried Thai coffee with boba and it was good. This place has a lot of indoor and outdoor seating space. Parking can be little tricky with lot of other small businesses in the same complex, but there is McDonald and neighborhood Walmart close by. Service was good. Being there for first time, we took some time to order but the server was helpful. They do offer a variety of drink and food options.

    Black tea milk tea is very milky. Not as rich in color and flavor as before.

    Love the tea and the boba. The only thing I've noticed is that the tea appears to be a bit lighter in color and flavor as well. I usually get a black tea milk tea. It was usually a caramel brown color, now it looks very milky. The flavor is there, but not as strong as before. The girls working there are friendly.

    This place has completely tanked. Overpriced garbage--flavorless, dry, burnt popcorn chicken drowning in so much Cajun seasoning it tastes like regret. Portions shrank, which is honestly a blessing; more of this trash would be a war crime. Boba? Just ice water with a sad whisper of color. Used to be my spot. Now? Total letdown. Stay away

    Me No Pink Lemonade, Thai tea, Lavander Lemonade
    Daisy S.

    Absolutely love this place! I've been coming since it first opened. I used to live within walking distance and would visit all the time, especially when they had the punch-hole point card system. My siblings and I loved stopping by to play board games because the atmosphere was always so welcoming and fun. As for the drinks, I haven't explored much of the menu since I usually stick to my go-to, the classic Thai tea frappe 5/5. However, I've brought many friends who have tried a variety of drinks, and they always rave about them. Here are my personal ratings: * Lavender Lemonade - 5/5, absolutely love it. * Lavender Milk Tea - 4/5, reminds me of Froot Loops milk. * Me No Pink Lemonade - 5/5, tart and refreshing. * Matcha with Brown Sugar - 0/5, not for me--I ended up tossing it when I got home. * Sweet Potato Fries- 4/5, first time trying them here and loved them. * Popcorn Chicken - 5/5, this is my go to. The chicken is crunchy and well seasoned and the sauce is so good. * Jalapeño Poppers- 4/5, good, but nothing special. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is due to an experience when the business was still fairly new. I had requested a small modification to my drink (I don't recall if it was a syrup or an add-in), but the owner or drink maker wouldn't allow any changes. Other than that, everything has been great!

    There is plenty of parking, so that wasn't an issue. I love the overall aesthetics of the shop. It is pretty clean and has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. I might even say that it would be a good place to study/work. You are able to order from a self-service kiosk or with a person if you'd like. I got the Traffic Light, and I would say that it was pretty sweet overall. There is a variety of options to choose from, so I would definitely try a different drink next time. I would say that the Traffic light drink was quite refreshing and did have great flavor to it. The Traffic light drink has 3 layers to it - strawberry, mango, and apple jelly. The apple jelly I could have done without, as it was quite too sweet for me.My favorite layer was the mango layer. I would definitely come back.

    Outdoor seating

    What's up: Just finished up a volunteer event nearby to plant some trees and had a craving for boba. My coworker recommended checking out Boba Indeed since it was in the area. Parking: Parking is shared among the nearby businesses but there was plenty of open spots to choose from. Environment: Walking in, you'll see the self order kiosk on the right. You can place your order there or go up to the counter and talk to a staff member. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. They had loud music playing so it was hard to have a conversation. No restrooms available. When your order is ready, a staff member will call your name. What was ordered: - Jasmine Green Tea with Boba (light tea flavor, not very sweet. Boba is decent) Yay/Nay/Meh: Meh. I was expecting more tea flavor but the drink tasted very milky. Boba was ok. Credit cards and Apple Pay accepted.

    Strawberry green tea
    Yari V.

    This boba place is so cute. You can place your order through their kiosk machine, however if you have any questions staff will definitely help. Place is alway clean and one of my fav places to get a strawberry green tea.

    I don't know why this has lower stars. Their drinks and snacks are delicious! For me, their calamari was a star. It was on the salty side, but it was so addicting and so flavorful. I can't wait to get more. Their coconut taro with pudding drink was also great.

    "Up All Night" drink

    I have missed the Whittier location so muchh I passed by Downey and saw the sign and decided to come by!! The environment is nice and clean, staff were friendly and kind. And of course the boba is AMAZINGG as always. I decided to try out the " Up All Night" drink and it was bomb 10/10 must try for all the coffee lovers out there!!

    Franklin C.

    Like that there is a fast boba shop in Downey area. It was hot this summer and why not get some tea drinks to go. So the place is right next to McDonalds so got to make sure you make a quick turn or you will have to loop around the street neighborhood. Space is small but they got the front street entrance which isn't hard to miss. I ordered three drinks and the hostess was really helpful and jovial. We laugh at the name of "sun of a peach" which is a great drink if you do order it. I ordered Milk tea, a mango slush and a three colored smoothie drink. All refreshing and definitely worth returning.

    ATTENTION!!! THIS CLASS 302 IN DOWNEY **IS NOT** LIKE THE CLASS 302 IN CERRITOS!…read moreThere is no shaved ice, there are no waffles, and Downey is self-serve drinks while Cerritos makes the drinks for you. Their food menus differ, as well. With that being said, this Class 302 is closer to my house, so it's frequented more. I probably would have made this a 5 star review, but I haven't tried enough of their food or drinks to make a sound judgement. While I can tolerate spicy foods, in my day and age now, spicy foods aren't a good look for me sometimes. I like how I can opt out of the spice here. I've had the Pork Bone Noodle soup and the Miso Udon soup, both are delicious. They both come spicy and in different degrees of spicy, but, again, I opt out of the spice. Their popcorn chicken also comes in different degrees of spicy, and I've tried the no-spice, and 1st degree (??) level of spicy. The popcorn chicken does have a distinct flavor to it, maybe it's Chinese 5 spice (?), I'm not sure. It took some getting used to, but my twins love the popcorn chicken from here. The fried basil they add to it is a nice touch of flavor. I'd probably choose the fried pork chop over the popcorn chicken, flavor wise. The pork chop is topped with cilantro and served with their house made sweet chili sauce. I guess the secret to their self-serve drinks is to use to slushes in lieu of the ice so that your drink isn't watered down. Now, there are instructions on how to self-serve your drinks here: *Order the size of drink you'd like (small, medium, or large). *Ask for a sample cup if you're not sure what to get. *Add your boba and other fillings first (fruit, egg tart, popping boba, lychee jelly, Oreo crumbs, etc.) *Choose your drink combinations and fill your cup carefully. *If you're gonna add toppings after you fill your cup with your drink, leave some space for said topping. *If there's some overflow of your drink, you might be asked to drink some of your drink or it will be poured out into a sample cup. Your drink can't seal properly if it's not flush with the top of the cup. *You might have to wait a minute for your cup to be sealed because Other Patrons. I always add one scoop of boba, and have tried the following combinations: *Coconut Slush-Ube Slush-Coconut Slush-Lychee Jelly *Coconut Slush-Pineapple Passion Slush-Lychee Jelly *Coconut Slush-Mango Berry-Pineapple Passion-Lychee Jelly *Pineapple Passion-Hisbiscus Tea *Coconut Slush-Thai Tea My twins choose a combination of the Strawberry Cream Slush, Horchata Slush, and Coconut Slush. They'll add Oreo cookie crumbles sometimes, too. I'm a fan of Jasmine Milk Tea, but when I tried it here, it wasn't Jasmine'ing like I'm used to, so I don't get it here. There's a good mix of ages/generations, families vs. couples vs. friend groups vs. solo diners, and while it can get packed it doesn't last for long. I've Shazam'd some music here so the playlists are pretty good. We're always greeted with a "Hi, Welcome!" when we walk thru the doors, so staff is pretty cool. Oh, the door can be heavy to open because of the AC on. We've always had some seats to sit on whilst waiting for our food to-go. Parking close by is a usual occurrence, but this shop is nestled in a very busy shopping/restaurant center.

    I saw a TikTok about this cafe, and I was so excited to try it!…read more I got two Vanilla Lattes (Iced), one Matcha Latte (Iced) with Cream Cheese Cold Foam, one Matcha Latte (Iced) with Regular Cold Foam, and one Strawberry Matcha Latte. All of the drinks came with little breadsticks which I thought was so good dipping into the cold foams! The Matcha Latte (Iced) with Cream Cheese Cold Foam was delicious! The Cream Cheese Cold Foam isn't super overpowering, but you can taste it in your drink, and it tastes great. I've never seen it offered at other cafes, but I liked it! The Strawberry Matcha Latte had strawberry puree and strawberry bits in it so you had to drink it with a boba straw. The drink was good! The Matcha Latte (Iced) with Regular Cold Foam tasted great as well. It almost tasted like a Matcha KitKat so it was pretty good. The cafe itself was empty when I came in, but the cafe quickly filled up with big groups. There's plenty of seating and tables, and all the seats are padded and comfortable. I could see this cafe being a fun study spot. There's also some board games and manga if you come with a big group. Parking is a bit chaotic because the parking lot is all bumpy, but parking isn't hard to find in the plaza. The employee was very kind and helpful. We didn't know there was coffee on the menu until he pointed us to where it was. He made the drinks very quickly, and he was very informative about the drinks. I would come here again!

The staff was really friendly, which made our visit even better. My son was excited to get some free cards for his collection, including a Monkey D. Luffy card! That made his day special.
