Good drink options! [Roseville CA] After having lunch across the parking lot I stopped by this boba shoppe for a little sweet treat. I usually like blended/smoothie drinks and they offered four with delightful flavors: Mango, Berry, Strawberry and Grape. I went for the Oreo Berry: Berry Smoothie topped with crushed Oreos. Oh, and with boba topping. Very clean and nice and bright inside with natural lighting. There was ample seating. The table seating (good for 2) against the wall each had its own wall socket where you can plug in to charge your electronics. My Oreo Berry smoothie was refreshing and yummy. The boba had a good consistency and chewy except they were a bit hard. Not sure if they were undercooked or if it has been left to sit too long after cooking. They currently don't offer snacks at this boba cafe. Instagram: @bobaunit_cafe Review #4024 read more

Too bad I'm not a matcha fan because Boba Unit is the place to go! My friends loved their banana matcha and mango matcha. I've been on a mango kick, and I was excited to try the mango sticky rice drink that I saw on Yelp. Sadly, they discontinued that item, so the staff recommended the mango maniac (I got it w/o the grapefruit with 0% sweetness). It was perfectly smooth and creamy with a nice texture that was just thick enough. I could tell by the naturally light sweet taste that they use real mango to make it. They are fast with getting the drinks out, even when they got an influx of customers. The staff was a friendly younger guy who was very patient and helpful with questions about the menu. Service itself was 5 stars. The place was clean and simply decorated with light wooden furniture and some fake greenery. It was a calm and inviting space, although seating is limited. Definitely returning if I'm in the area! read more

We finally made it in to try the new coffee series. The man working is always nice and helpful. I tried the Cookie Butter Coffee first. It's a house made cookie butter sauce, their signature espresso topped with cookie butter cream top & Biscoff. It was delish!!!!! The next week I went back and tried the Vienna Coffee but added their Banana Foam. It's their signature espresso topped with fluffy whipped cream & cocoa powder + the BEST banana foam around!!!! It was amazing!!!!! Yum! Yum! Yum! read more

Everyone I've brought here always likes it! The space is small but nice for hangouts and the menu has options you don't always see at other shops. The owner/manager(?) is also always super friendly whenever I see him. I'm glad they're open on Tuesdays now! Grapefruit tea: 8/10, very refreshing Rose lychee: 8/10, not usually a floral tea person but it was tolerable for me! Pandan milk tea: 7/10, the pandan flavor is not too heavy/likely an extract, but I do like the coconut milk and toppings. read more

Cute little boba / matcha spot in Roseville, which is located in the Trader Joe's plaza. The interior has a nice sophisticated aesthetic to it. Makes for a chill place to hang out and enjoy your drinks. Tried the: - White Rabbit Matcha which is matcha with a scoop of their house made white rabbit icecream. I tasted the icecream alone before mixing it with the drink and it was good. I give this drink a 9/10. - Pandan Milk Tea which is a Pandan x Jasmine milk tea with toasted coconuts and Pandan jelly. This drink was a miss for me. The idea of it sounds amazing, unfortunately, I didn't really taste any Jasmine, and I could tell they use Pandan extract and not fresh Pandan leaves to make the drink. The Pandan jelly in the drink was good, but again, I could taste the Pandan extract in it. It (either the jelly or the drink or both) also stained my tongue green for hours ): I give this drink a 6/10. The matcha quality here is good and I'd come back again to try other items. read more

Cute, clean place with a great vibe. The young guy at the register was very friendly and talkative, which made the experience even better. It was our first time here and we loved it. I got the strawberry smoothie with no sugar and I'm so glad I did -- it was delicious. My son got the banana matcha with oat milk at 50% sugar and it was sooo delicious (and I don't even usually like banana!). Definitely one of my new favorite spots. We'll be coming back for sure. read more

Cute little boba shop with a few seating and parking. I got the Thai tea which was not memorable to be honest. I couldn't really taste the tea, it kind of just tasted like milk. I also couldn't try it with the cream since they don't have any of those sip cups and when I tried to mix it, I didn't really taste a difference. I also tried the mango matcha which was also alright but it kind of just tasted like only mango, I could not taste much of the matcha. Maybe next time will just stick to the matcha as other people were saying. Otherwise, the service was really great! The guy at the front was very friendly and helpful. read more

Came by on Saturday evening and it wasn't too busy. No line so service was quick. I wanted to try the pandan milk tea but they were some out so I opted for a Thai milk tea. I wasn't a fan of the whipped cream that comes with the Thai milk tea. I love whipped cream on its own, but it didn't mesh well with the drink to me. Easy parking in this big lot. Couple tables and chairs if you want to hang out. There was enough seating that we could sit down while waiting for our drink. Not sure I'd come back to this particular spot and I'm still on the search for my go-to boba place in Roseville area. read more

Boba unit is one of the best in the area! They use high quality ingredients and get their matcha from Japan! Staff is friendly and service is quick. I tried the Oreo berry blast at 25% sweet with oat milk and it was the perfect sweetness. The banana matcha was very creamy and still pretty sweet at 50%. They continually change their menu with new seasonal drinks so follow their Instagram for updates when new drinks come in read more

matcha drinks here are sooo good and that's coming from someone who makes and drinks a loooot of matcha. love that this spot has a lot of creative options- boba tea drinks, coffee, matcha, fruity drinks etc. so there's something for everyone. there is also no up charge for oat milk and sweetness can be adjusted. loved the matcha einspanner the most! i also really appreciate that the drinks are not overly sweet at the base level because a lot of times matcha drinks can taste like a dessert but the flavors truly shine without being sugar overload! read more

I come here almost every weekend for their Matcha x Matcha! I tried the Matcha Einspanner once but I'm not a fan of whipped cream. Their prices are on the pricier side but I like their matcha latte a lot more than other places, they definitely don't skimp on the matcha. I went on a hike today and my $8.50 matcha x matcha was the sole reason for making it back to my car after getting lost. read more

From the moment I walked in, the space felt bright, clean, and welcoming. The staff greeted me right away with genuine smiles and were super patient as I asked questions and customized my drink. I ordered a classic brown sugar milk tea with boba, and it had a perfect, rich flavor, not overly sweet, and the boba was soft and chewy with just the proper bite. I also tried one of their fruit teas, and you can really taste the difference in quality compared to many other places. The balance of tea and fruit flavors was spot-on and really refreshing. What I appreciate most is how customizable everything is. They let you choose your sweetness level, ice level, and toppings, and they're happy to make recommendations if you're not sure what to get. Service is quick, and my drinks came out fast, even though they were clearly busy. The cafe itself is a great spot to hang out: comfortable seating, good lighting, and a relaxed vibe. It's the kind of place where you can meet friends, study, or enjoy a quiet drink on your own on a non-busy day. Otherwise, the music can be a bit loud if you don't bring noise-cancelling headphones with you if you do choose to study here at Boba Unit Cafe. Overall, Boba Unit Cafe is a gem in Roseville. Consistent drinks, friendly staff, fair prices, and a cozy atmosphere easily make this a 5-star spot for me. I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu! read more

Amazing quality matcha!!! Me and my girlfriend went to celebrate national matcha day by trying a few new spots and Boba Unit Cafe was one of them. Their matcha flavor is so spot on and has that perfect grassy flavor while still being sweet and nutty. The white rabbit matcha (not pictured) was by far our fav! It was so amazing and on point flavor wise! The mango matcha was delicious but slightly lost the matcha flavor with the strength of the mango flavoring; not complaining though as the mango was so fresh and not artificial tasting at all. The thai tea einspanner was pretty good as well, I would have preferred a stronger thai tea flavoring but the cream and floral notes were overall delicious. Give this place a try if you're a matcha fanatic! read more

I love Boba Unit for how quick the service is, the quality of their drinks, and even the seating area. While there isn't a ton of seating, the seats do have outlets, which makes it a great spot to study or get some work done if needed. The service is always consistently good, and this place probably has one of the best matchas in the Sacramento area. I'd absolutely love to come back and try all of their drinks! read more

Boba Unit has become one of my favorite iced matcha latte spots! It was sad they were sold out of matcha for about 2 months. That made me want it more haha. But its worth the wait since they source their matcha straight from Japan. I'm so glad its back and with a new menu of matcha drinks! Sold out matcha forced me to try other drinks. I tried their Pandan Milk Tea and Banana Milk Tea in the meantime. Both were yummy but White Rabbit Matcha is still my favorite. Banana Milk Tea was a limited time drink but I didn't like it as much as the pandan or matcha drinks. The Pandan jellies were really good! I like that their drinks have a real tea flavor not like other boba spots that are just super sugary and sweet. I didn't care too much for the actual boba. I prefer without it. The new matcha menu looks so good I want to try them all! The Mango Sitcky Rice caught my eye the most but sadly they were sold out of it for the day. I ordered the Soo Soo Matcha sweet corn matcha latte. It was interesting. Very faint slight creamy sweet corn taste. I would've liked a stronger sweet corn flavor. I'm wondering if its because I ordered it at 50% sweetness. It was still a tasty matcha drink, I enjoyed it. So far between White Rabbit Matcha, Soo Soo Matcha, and Matcha Einspanner I've tried, White Rabbit Matcha is still winning for me. I look forward to trying the rest of the matcha drinks. I'd love if they made a matcha flight to try them all. Hopefully they don't run out of matcha anytime soon! p.s. follow them on Instagram @bobaunit_cafe for matcha updates read more

What initially caught my attention to try this place was the white rabbit matcha! Growing up I was obsessed with that candy, so I was super happy to see they have that flavor! The white rabbit flavor comes from their in-house made white rabbit ice cream. The matcha itself is very strong so even half the drink gets me wired, since I'm pretty sensitive to caffeine. Second, I tried the Soo Soo sweet corn matcha, that was interesting but I don't love the flavor combination with matcha . But I'll be back again to try the other matchas and of course get the white rabbit matcha again. read more

I tried three drinks here: the Corn Matcha Latte, Banana Matcha Latte, and Yuzu Matcha. Both the corn and banana matcha lattes were pretty good. Not too strong on the flavoring, which I liked. They also weren't overly sweet. I ordered mine with regular sweetness, but next time I'd probably go with 75% sweet since I liked the balance better when I tried my friend's. We got oat milk with both lattes. The Yuzu Matcha was my favorite out of the three. It doesn't contain milk and has a carbonation to it, and the yuzu flavor really stands out. Super refreshing and definitely the one I'd order again. read more

Excited to see how they grow! As of 6/15: NO MATCHA DRINKS UNTIL JULY due to the matcha shortage! We tried the: - Pandan Milk Tea $7 (5/5) - Oreo Berry $8 (3/5) The Pandan Milk Tea is SOOOO good! I might just be saying that because it's the only Pandan milk tea in the area, BUT it truly is tasty! We didn't make any modifications to the sweetness and I thought it was perfect--not too sweet! I also love that it comes with toasted coconut and Pandan jellies. I really think it's a good price for what you get! The Oreo Berry smoothie is an amazing fruit smoothie, but the crème brûlée cream and Oreo bits push it too over the edge for me. I can see kids loving it though! Really excited to come back and try their matcha drinks, because I trust they'll do them well! read more

Both my friend and I got the pandan milk tea. I had the boba. The boba is okay, slightly more on the soft side and could have used a bit more brown sugar infused into it. The pandan milk tea itself was good, definitely glad I got half sugar. It a good pandan taste to it. We were able to get our drinks pretty quick. It's a very minimalist design in the cafe which I enjoyed. read more

In 2024, we drove past this place and saw the cute bunny logo. My brother was visiting at the time and wanted to check it out. Unfortunately it wasn't open yet and had a sign that said "Coming Soon." In April 2025, my husband and I stopped by. Got a milk tea and a smoothie. The fresh grapefruit on top of the smoothie was pretty unique. The milk tea was decent but must have had quite a high caffeine concentration. I couldn't sleep the entire night. While I usually get highly caffeinated at boba tea shops (perfect when you need energy to do lots of house cleaning), this seemed a little too much caffeine, if that is a thing. Plus prices seemed higher than other establishments, and the wait time was a bit long. Fast forward to this weekend and my brother is back in town. Thought we'd take him to check it out. He commented about sparse it is inside, with the minimalist decor. We thought they could at least do something cute with the bunny logo but there really wasn't anything bunny-themed inside. Drinks seemed a little pricey. 3 drinks cost us $23. Wait time was very long. While it was a weekend and probably a little more crowded than usual, it seems like other boba places are a little more streamlined and faster with order prep. Husband liked his smoothie and said he'd get it again. Brother finished his white peach refresher fairly quickly. My Rosey Peach drink wasn't too bad and even had little roses inside! Unique drinks but on the more expensive side, and prepare for a wait. Worth it to try but not sure we'd return since there are so many boba places around us nowadays! read more

Friendly staff and quick service, but a lot of the menu was unavailable when we visited. They were sold out of six drinks, so we ended up trying the Guava Lychee Tea. Even at regular sweetness, it came out bitter and sour. The Strawberry Jasmine Tea was the better pick. It was refreshing and had great flavor. The space itself felt clean and welcoming, with a calm vibe that made it a nice spot to hang out for a bit. read more

Waited for this place to open and finally got to try it with my family. The place is small but narrow where there is plenty if seating and also a cute toddler table at the front for the little ones to enjoy. Menu is small but not overwhelming so that tells you the quality of their products are good. We ordered the BU milk tea with the scoop of ice-cream which was pretty rich but really good. They had offered the strawberry matcha which was pretty good as well with the fresh strawberries. The mango smoothie was also a good choice. Will come again to try other drinks. read more

service was nice, and the store is cute. the strawberry matcha had a much darker taste than expected...6/10. The pandan milk tea was soooo sad. It has no pandan taste whatsoever. it only tastes like jasmine tea. i was so excited to try this and it's actually a disappointment. 1/10. and why is my mouth so GREEN??? like green dye fr??? just use some pandan flavoring from the asian market it's so easy, not jasmine tea with green dye Ew.. read more

I've been here twice now per the recommendation of a friend and everything is amazing. From the traditional boba drinks to the matcha. The drinks weren't overly sweet and had a rich tea flavor. I tried the white rabbit matcha and the classic milk tea. Both hit the spot with the perfect balance of sweet and tea. Such a rich addition to the Roseville area, will definitely be back soon. read more

I found Boba Unit Cafe through Yelp while in the Roseville/ Rocklin area, and I was instantly drawn in by their unique menu! Unlike big franchises, Boba Unit has a down to earth menu featuring well crafted Asian flavors from the pandan milk tea to their ceremonial grade matcha from Japan. My partner and I arrived just before closing, and to our surprise, it was quite busy inside. We also weren't the last customers of the night! Inside has an all white aesthetic and there's a couple tables if you prefer to dine-in and hang out. Boba Unit also has a kids table area, so consider this spot family friendly! I ordered the White Rabbit Matcha, which is a matcha latte topped off with house made white rabbit ice cream. I loved the subtle flavor and creaminess of the ice cream, but it was a little awkward to mix in since the ice cream kept floating up to the top. There was also way too much ice for my liking. Overall, Boba Unit offers drinks that are more elevated than your typical boba spot; however there's still room for improvement, which is understandable in the soft opening phase. read more

Super cute and minimalist spot in Roseville with major aesthetic vibes. Their menu has sooo many matcha drinks, but the White Rabbit Matcha instantly caught my eye (hello childhood candy nostalgia!). I got it 50% sweet and the housemade White Rabbit ice cream on top was such a fun touch -- though I low-key wish they sold it by the scoop too. Only downside was a lot of ice, so I sipped through it fast. A little pricey, but the in-house ice cream makes it worth it. Definitely coming back to try more! read more

Drinks: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Seating: 4/5 Parking: 5/5 Bathroom: 4.5/5 Located in the same large plaza at Trader Joe's, there is plenty of free, unlimited parking. Walking in, the tall floor to ceiling windows brings lots of light in at the front. The decor and furniture is very minimalistic and gives a clean look. The menu is printed on laminated paper both at the counter (pictured) and at the window next to the front door. Music is played, overall the ambience is causal, perfect whether you're quickly stopping by for a to go order or if you're staying for awhile to study or chat with friends. On the right side there's a wide, long hallway with 3 small, circle tables + 2 chairs each (pictured). Meanwhile the front has two medium, square tables and stools, so I'd say a medium amount of space for sitting. For the chairs in the back they're made of a study light wood wicker chair with a wide base, I'd give a 4/5 comfort. The backing is hard wood and open so if you place a bag behind you at your back it could fall. The circle tables each appear to have two outlets each, unsure if they work. The front, square tables have backless, wooden stools or a bench against the wall, I'd rate 2/5 on the comfort level. Overall, 4/5 seating as they put as much as they could utilize in this small space and there's variety. I got the White Rabbit Matcha with Coconut Milk, at 100% sweetness (pictured, $8). I love Matcha, I asked and they source ceremonial grade matcha powder from a small farm in Japan, you can really taste the quality in the matcha. I also love sweet drinks so if you don't like bitterness keep in mind this matcha is very strong and has a slight bitter aftertaste. Personally, I don't think the coconut milk changes the taste, the matcha powder if very strong and I didn't taste any coconut flavor like I expected. The White Rabbit flavor is in the one scoop of ice cream they put in the drink, which the ice cream does taste like White Rabbit candy. But because it's ice cream and takes awhile to melt, it doesn't blend/change the flavor of the matcha latte too much which is a little disappointing. All the way in the very back is one gender neutral bathroom (pictured), Paper towels only (no air dryer). Door lock does not indicate if it's already occupied from the outside. It was the end of the day so it was used, as expected, but still clean, 4.5/5. Overall, 5/5. I was looking for a cafe to grab a sweet drink and stay for awhile to craft. This was the perfect place both ambience and menu wise. I also am excited to try a good matcha place and I think this is it. I would love to come back and try more such as the Soo Soo Matcha (Sweet Corn). read more

Walking into the restruant it is very clean and I love the decor. I was excited to see a cute little table for my toddler to sit at! There is plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy. They offer self serve water that my toddler loved to do herself. The staff were very kind and knowledgeable about the drinks they make. Pandan Milk Tea - I didn't really taste the Pandan. I tasted more of the jasmin tea. I wish I got more of the pandan flavor. I did like the toasted coconut on top and I did think the jelly ratio was great. Strawberry Mango Smoothie - This was a hit for my daughter. I loved how it's made with real fruits! My only suggestion is to maybe build a counter for drinks when it's ready and for the napkins and water. It was awkward going infront of people who were in line to grab extra napkins and my drinks. Overall we had a great experience. read more

The assistant manager suggested his favorite drinks: Matcha Brulee at 75% sweetness, B.U. (aka Boba Unit) Milk Tea, and Mango Maniac. Milk substitutes include Oat Milk and Coconut Milk. Restaurant is starkly modern and white with 5 tables for 2, 1 table for 4, 1 small children's table for 2, and one bench. Drink prices range from $6-$8 with $0.50 Boba and $1 for Popping Boba or Lychee Jelly. I tried the 75% sweetness Matcha Brulee, but as typical for matcha, it was too bitter for me and drink wasn't sweet to me. Flavor reminds me of unsweetened soy milk or tofu. It is a cool and creamy blended drink. Brulee just means the yellow cream swirl inside the cup. There is not any custard, pudding, or crunchy candied sugar topping inside the drink. You are told to wait 10 minutes for your drink to be made. FYI: Matcha Einspanner isn't available on 2/14/25 because the specialty cream hasn't been delivered yet. Boba Unit Cafe is located in the Trader Joe's and now out-of-business Big Lots plaza with the cluster of small businesses closer to Fairway Drive. It is directly across the way from Fukumi Ramen. Valentine's Day 2025 is the Grand Opening Day with a 15% soft opening weekend only discount (2/14/25 to 2/16/25). Best Wishes to Boba Unit Cafe and welcome to Roseville! read more

It took me too long to come check out this place but it did not disappoint one bit! We didn't catch the matcha menu since it wasn't available yet but I was super pleased with the drinks we got. The Very Peachy was my favorite! It's just straight up blended white peaches which are my favorite, with a sweet cream to make the drink creamy. I loved the fresh peach bits also. The banana milk tea was also equally delicious! I loved the banana cream paired with the biscoff crumbles. The place is very clean inside with some seating to enjoy your drinks right away.
