Good tea at new park mall, it's great taste , Saturday and its great to try. ........

I'm sorry Boba Nation, I wasn't familiar with your game, by which I mean this place far exceeded my expectations! Boba Nation is one of the few surviving businesses at Newark Mall. It has a broad drink menu including teas, smoothies, and matcha, along with acai bowls, bingsu, and hot snacks. There are a few tables and chairs nearby, or you can sit outside since it's near the mall entrance. There are self-service kiosks to order. I got a large lychee milk tea and my friend got a matcha tiger, and we were both pleasantly surprised by our drinks. We both thought the tapioca was the standout -- it was cooked perfectly, the right amount of chewy, and sweet. My friend said the matcha flavor was strong and good. Overall quite pleased and will be back to try more of their drinks. read more

Wow the chocolate oreo smoothie is SO good! So sweet yet so good! The mango bingsu is so good! Even on a rainy day. Parking was easy, right next to Jack's. It's so sad that the mall inside is so empty. Wish more shops are open. It's in the middle of the mall, few high tables and chairs right outside the store front. Convenient order counter. Will come again if in the vicinity, however not a good place to hangout. read more

I love the Arnold palmers here. Don't see it that often anywhere else. It's basically lemonade with tea. They have two types of flavors - black and green tea with lemonade. Super refreshing and not too sweet. They're speedy with orders. They also have amazing macarons that aren't too crunchy and just the right texture. Must have if you're around this area! read more

Craved some boba and decided to give boba nation a try. I was drawn in by the various drinks. They had so many options. I love mango so decided to give the mango milk tea a try and I wasn't disappointed. The tea was very flavorful and fragrant. The tea was bursting with mango flavors. It comes with boba, I opted for the small size and it was perfect. Service was good, order from the self serve kiosk and then they make your drink and you grab it from the pickup side. Location is in the mall and it's pay first and pick up and go with your order. Ambiance is nice, location is clean. read more

Hidden gem in this mall and the young lady working behind the counter was super sweet and friendly. My kids and I came at the perfect time with only one guest in front of us. The menu is massive with so many options to choose from. It was a quiet afternoon and not too many traffic inside. We really enjoyed this spot! We will be back the next time we're in town. read more

It's really good and have a nice recommendations. The place is soo good and spacious . They have friendly staff.

Stopped by the mall to check out miniso and box lunch and decided to get a drink on our way out. We got oolong milk tea, horchata milk tea and a mango smoothie of some sort that I can't remember the name. Everything was pretty good but my oolong was a little watered down. The service was fast and it was self order so that's pretty cool. I'd try it again if I were in the area! read more

Staff was very nice so you can expect the service was good. We waited a few mins (about 20 mins) for our order, maybe because she was alone when we got there, about 1:30pm on a Thursday, and there were a few people who ordered before us. She did say she will make our waffles fresh so I guess that added to the time too. Really did not mind the wait. Fresh is always wanted. The coconut oreo shake was good, but it was a little sweet for me. There was no option to lessen the sweetness when we ordered it from the "screen". Cheese foam matcha, half sweet, was perfect and the cheese foam was lovely. Mozzarella cheese waffle was cheesy according to my company. I did not taste it. Hotdog and cheese waffle was mine and it tasted good... the only thing that failed my expectation is that they used half hotdog in a regular size waffle. Also, the cheese was concentrated on the bottom part... so my first couple of bites was just the waffle itself, which tasted good, then came the hotdog then the cheese. I thought I would be able to taste the waffle with the hotdog and cheese all at the same time. 3 stars on my hotdog and cheese waffle... because although the waffle tasted good... I did not find the value for my money in this order. read more

Didn't expect to find such a great drink place in Newpark. Saw it on the way out and impulse-stopped after being stunned by their gigantic menu on their gigantic television menu. No regrets. Best strawberry oreo milkshake I've ever had. Newpark might be dying, but Boba Nation is thriving. Very competent workers here! read more

I tried the milk tea from Boba Nation at the USA TODAY Wine & Food Experience event, and I was really impressed by how tasty it was. I found out they have three locations in the East Bay area. I ordered their Nation Milk Tea with boba and less ice. Even though you can't adjust the sweetness, the drink still tasted amazing, just like I remembered from the event. read more

Service was through a kiosk, so we didn't speak to anyone, but the staff was quick at making the drinks. The mozzarella waffle took a bit longer, but it was warm when it got to me. The place was a typical boba shop in a mall, bright colors and youthful vibe. Their menu is very extensive, so many options for people who are particular about their drinks! read more

The strawberry yogurt was actually pretty good. The lemonade was refreshing and quench our thirst. I also ordered the taro milk tea half sweeten but it was still pretty sweet. Overall it was just average and a little more expensive than other spots. Not much selection at the mall so settle to grab a drink from here. read more

The menu is huge, pages of options--so it can take a minute to decide what you want. It's a little overwhelming at first, but the staff is friendly and service is fast. I usually come here for the bingsoo. It's not as fancy or traditional as the ones from Korean dessert cafés, but it's still pretty good, especially on a hot day. read more

I was with my son in Newark Mall. I accidentally order from the Hayward location for pick up. When I received a text saying my order is ready, I approached the counter and the girl looked confused. I doubled check the app and it said order ready for p/u in Hayward. I felt so stupid. Luckily, they called the Hayward location to confirm and they made my order for me. Such good employees. read more

2nd Review . . . Get the Magonada. Hecka good! Until they build a Dutch Bros here (which I doubt they will), definitely a good replacement. read more

love this place! the food is so good here i definitely recommend coming here. the service is great too!

Boba Nation opened in It's Boba Time's dpace.. happy hours, opening till 1. Mon-Thurs. 20% off large drinks. drink prices are higher since i visited Hayward. menu: juices + the usual popular boba drinks. drink: strawberry matcha milk tea (L.6.70) 25% sugar -after i shook it up, i experienced no flavors at all of strawberry, matcha -previously 50% sugar @Hayward was too sweet. even sugar was weak. *didn't experience any frutose aftertaste. drips: -owner has reached out regarding the mixup of my order. since she relayed proprietary info regarding same, i won't repeat it. the staff will be retrained, i will get a do-over. will update with new findings, if any. read more

The other day we visited the new park mall in Newark, and stopped by Bourbon nation to grab some drinks. I ordered a kale spinach smoothie with no Boba and my goddaughter ordered a strawberry fruit tea with Boba. We were very happy with the flavors and the kale spinach smoothie was so tasty, that my toddler finished the rest of it. It's kind of a long wait but it's worth the wait! read more

I was skeptical about this place but my friend and I had time to kill before our movie. It was around 6:30 Tuesday and they were about to close at 7. I felt bad ordering kinda late but the staff was very friendly and helpful when trying to decide what to order. They even had me try the house milk tea and I was very surprised it was very good... for a regular milk tea! It wasn't very sweet like a lot of places and you can taste the tea as well. They offer a lot of flavors and it was very hard to pick something. To be safe I went with taro but they had a taro Oreo which I picked. Also not too sweet and a lot of places let you customize the sweetness but the sweetness to me was just right. Definitely recommend this place. Always bring that one friend that wants to try places and not judge the book by it's cover! read more

I took my nieces to New Park Mall after a disappointing attempt at getting them some boba from a different place across the street. I was so glad Boba Nation was right there when we walked in. The assortment of flavors and options was great. One of my nieces ordered a chocolate milk tea w/boba, and the other got a strawberry milk tea w/boba. Both enjoyed their drinks, thanks! One ding was that no one helping us could answer our question asking about cheese in drinks. It sounds gross to me (I think cheddar or mozzarella), so we were asking for someone to explain what kind of cheese it was that was added to drinks. The two guys at the counter could not articulate what kind of cheese or what the draw was for adding cheese to a drink. read more

Peach lychee fruit tea is a hit!!! The barista said it wouldn't be sweet and I was concerned. I wanted it sweet but it was my normal favorite drink. She must have been new. I think she also gave me the wrong lid can't get my coconut lychee jelly out of the lid. Normally provided with boba straw. Can't taste the coconut if you don't like coconut don't worry ordering this. Right when you walk in to the mall on the left on the 24 hour fitness side. They accept Apple Pay. read more

Update: I never would expect this. Wow! I went to Stoneridge Mall yesterday & I wanted to order a drink with Boba Nation as it is a different location since I planned not to order any at New Park Mall Mall anymore. But the amazing guy in front of the cashier, probably is the owner recognized me & apologized profusely for what happened to me at New Park Mall a few weeks ago & made it right for me at the spot...it was something I never expect esp When it was at a different location but I truly appreciate it. I'll forgive, move forward & continue support this business. So I would want to give their customer service 10 stars instead!! read more

Boba Nation Grand - Did you see any foam in this picture? Why did the cashier think I wanted a foamed tea after showing this picture?!?! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Newark, California

Soo.. we waited for our drinks over 20mins. After using the bar scan code to pay on their site we didnt know it wasn't an automatic notify to them to make our drinks. They should let folks know that. Simple enough to post it by the register. read more

We've bought from this boba spot multiple times for delivery or pick up, but when we went in person the owner who was running the register was very condescending and rude because we asked for less sugar in our child's smoothie. It was very off-putting. For that, they've lost our business. read more

They have a lot of flavors to choose from. They also have snacks thats perfect to pair it with. Quick waiting time on the order and very fast ordering. Great location too! read more

I would give this place a solid 4 out of 5. They have plenty of different of drinks to choose from and offer milk alternatives (soy milk or almond milk) which is nice. The workers are quick so I got my drink pretty quickly! I ended up getting the Ube Fresh Milk drink with boba. The drink itself was good and it actually had a real Ube flavor. Other milk tea places I've been to have gravely misused taro as a substitute for Ube. They are absolutely not the same. Because of this, I was pleasantly surprised it was right Ube flavor! The one thing I wish they would improve on is their their boba. It is very bland ... it has a good QQ consistency (cooked just right) but I would highly suggest they also cook it with honey or brown sugar. This would make the drinks SO much better. read more

Excellent customer service. Clean and efficient place. Ordered the tiger brown sugar milk with boba. It was actually much sweeter than expected, but still very good tasting. I didn't even ask, but the cashier gave me a free strawberry watermelon sampler to taste in a cup. We were just chatting about how I had just purchased a large sized fresh watermelon juice no sugar from food court upstairs. That was over $7.50. If I saw this earlier, I would have given it a try here instead. Lower prices/similar sizes. Prices are decent and inexpensive compared to its competitors. Conveniently located inside Newpark Mall-still in renovation mode as they are planning to build a Costco where the Forever 21 and Burlington Coat Factory used to be. That part of the mall has been torn down in the works. There are empty bar seating & small tables in front of the Miniso store across from here. Very dead and quiet mall these days. Their beverage menu is huge! They even have small bites/Asian baos/buns and other goodies. Not bad for a tiny storefront. Perhaps I will revisit when the mall is in better shape in future. Great stop to relax, drink & chill. read more

Boba Nation has taken over the It's Boba Time in NewPark Mall. There is plenty of of shared mall parking as well. A lot of spots had closed down since I had last visited here years ago, but my friend and I stopped by to walk around to kill time, and I decided to try them out. They have a large menu consisting of coffees, frappes, fruit teas, iced teas, juices, lemonades, milk teas, shakes, slushes, smoothies, sparkling drinks, etc. With a large menu, it could be overwhelming, but it may be good because there is something for everyone here. I ordered a jasmine milk tea with boba. It tasted bitter and grainy, and a bit stronger in tea taste. I wished it was a bit more creamy as well. read more

One of the largest selections of Boba I have ever seen if you can't find something you like you're not looking, they make really really great Boba read more

I was very impressed with a variety of flavors, fast service, and perfect sweetness level without asking for "low sugar levels". I'll be back to try all the rest of the flavors but for now the mango lychee was amazing. They use fresh fruit for the fillings and bonus: you don't have to pay extra for Boba! read more
