A solid tea spot located in the heart of West Covina. I've been trying other tea spots in the area since BYOB closed. Bobaland is a solid choice if you want something quick. They serve snacks here like popcorn chicken, and fries. The place itself is relatively small but has a few tables should you decide to dine in. I usually order the milk tea, or oolong milk tea. The staff here is friendly, and the service is quick!
I came to Bobaland in West Covina expecting good drinks, but honestly... the seasoned fries completely stole the show. Let's start with the obvious, the fries. Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and coated in this perfectly balanced seasoning that hits savory, slightly salty, and just a little addictive. You know those fries you keep reaching for even when you're full? Yeah, those. I'd come back for these alone. The drinks were solid too, refreshing and nicely made, with a good variety to choose from. But if I'm being real, I barely paid attention once those fries hit the table. The vibe inside is chill and a great spot to hang out with friends. It's very small though with maybe three tables inside and a few chairs against the wall to sit in while you wait for your order. Not a big place so don't expect to fit with a stroller or anything like that lol. Service is usually quick, and everything comes out fresh. However, I have even there at times when it's busy and it can take up to 20 min to get your order so if you're in a hurry call and find out if you're going during their busy hours. Bottom line: come for the boba, but DO NOT skip the seasoned fries. That's the real star here.
This has to be one of the best boba places in town. Although I don't get actual boba I have before and it's really good. But i decided to try something different and got the strawberry swirl and it was delicious. So creamy and so perfectly sweet. The popcorn chicken is our favorite and def our go to for a snack. The season fries are delicious. They have a sweet and salty taste to them. My son isn't a big fan so I get him regular fries and he tears it up. Everyone there is so sweet. The place has a little area to eat with a few tables so we like to sit inside and enjoy. I love this place. Definitely our go to and our favorite spot. 100000 recommend!
I ordered the Avocano ($7.95) at Bobaland (West Covina). The first sip tastes of finely crushed ice. The second sip tastes of soft, sweet avocado. The third sip tastes of supple, gentle, sweetened jellies. The Avocano is a pleasant drink that's creamy and cold with a whopping portion of fresh & sweet mashed avocado. The effort and careful creation of this beverage is visible and appreciated. I arrived at Bobaland (West Covina) on Wednesday (around 6:52PM). The location is difficult to find because it's small and plain. Thankfully, there's plenty of parking, and Bobaland (West Covina) is walking distance from the Regal Edwards Movie Theater. Staff is functional. Staff works hard, and staff are terse and focused. This hidden location is busy with high customer flow and phone call orders. I ordered the Avocano ($7.95). The drink was completed in eight minutes and 33 seconds. As mentioned, I genuinely enjoyed my Avocano. It contained good quality ingredients, and it felt fresh. The portion felt reasonable, and it quenched my thirst. The drink was not too sweet; rather, its flavors felt well-intentioned and properly measured. Unlike gimmick locations that skimp, Bobaland (West Covina) felt well-composed and high-quality. Concerning ambiance, Bobaland (West Covina) is extremely ugly. This place is the living embodiment of "don't judge a book by its cover." The walls have a nauseating haunted house yellow color; the furniture is plastic and uncomfortable; and its crevices are brown and harshly scuffed. Honestly, its ugly design is either very dated or it's intentional so it can dissuade any customers from lingering. Bobaland (West Covina) is also very small and tight. It's cramped, and no music plays. There's just awkward silence. I also dislike how they have this one tiny trashcan with flaps which forces you to always touch its dingy top. On the positive side, the location is surprisingly well-ventilated. Its air smelled clean despite the strange strands of hairs underneath a few plastic tables. Also, the place offers many electric wall sockets (despite several of those sockets looking strangely brown and crusty). It even has wifi internet and password. To its credit, the one gender neutral restroom (for customers) was also very clean. Overall, I do recommend Bobaland (West Covina). Its appearance might be plain, cramped, and putrid; however, there's sincere care and love laced within those drinks. This local hidden gem is popular for good reason. 4.5 out of 5
omg i'm just realizing now i forgot to take photos of my food + drink lmaooo but it was so quaint and opens late! lots of people outside the storefront around 10pm still. i ordered the popcorn chicken and strawberry smoothie with boba for my bf -- yommy and freshly made! but nothing mindblowing
I have to come back here! The flavors are amazing and the staff is so nice! They know how to deal with difficult customers (I watched it happen) and they fully understand what customers want! The shop is so cute and there's a tv menu for people to look at before they get in line IF NEEDED! The chairs are set up and it's colorful and very nice! We came here after the bar flooded so not only are they open late but they save the night! We had a group of friends that went to Bobaland and it was a great way to end the night for all of us! We got to sit there and talk and enjoy our drinks together! Thank you Bobaland for a great time and great drinks!
Came by here for a tea fix. It was a bit hard to find since the store front is small, but look for the bright yellow wall! There are not a lot of seats here (seating for maybe 10) and it's a very narrow shop, so it's more of a takeaway place. Honestly if you are claustrophobic, you might be uncomfortable spending a long time here. I picked up a couple drinks: * Mango Swirl with boba * Lychee green tea with crystal boba - I liked that the drink included a couple actual Lychee fruits in it! The teas we tried were good! Good level of sweetness, although I requested the green tea at 75% for the hubby since most of the time, most places are on the sweeter side. He said next time he'll get it with no adjustments since it was not that sweet. Decor here is cute, I like their cartoon llama theme.
I ordered crystal boba and they gave me regular boba and they said oh I'm sorry I did it wrong. I thought they were going to fix it but they didn't. We also ordered the avocado, we asked if it's an avocado smoothie they said yes. I got fresh milk with some avocado smeared on the cup. I told them I can't have fresh milk and if I can change for something else. They said no, then they said it's half and half and then they said it's just like a smoothie. Nothing is blended. I'm definitely not going back anymore.
cute boba shop next to my go-to nail salon! the drinks my kids and i tried were pretty good. thai tea - perfect sweetness mango yogurt - tasty and filling house brown sugar milk tea - good strawberry swirl - mehhh this spot has a good variety of drinks and snacks. the popcorn chicken is a must try! it's not spicy but has a good seasoning. also got the bubble waffle which was not as airy as i'm used to but edible. probs won't order that again.
Service was just ok, and the drinks were mediocre too. I came here for a quick date and left completely unimpressed. Not much to add. Won't be back (plus it's far from my city anyways, lol).
I really enjoy Bobaland's drinks. Their drinks are well made and don't need any substitutions to make it taste good. My go to is their brown sugar fresh milk boba with cheese cream. The service is fast and the workers are friendly. The ambiance is nice, cute and modern. There are a decent amount of tables inside or chairs near the hallway while you wait for your drink. I highly recommend the caramel boba! Plenty of parking in their parking lot.
So glad there is a late-night boba shop open in West Covina! Coming here definitely gives me a little happiness boost, while I sip on good tea, enjoy a fresh-made Hong Kong egg waffle, and am surrounded by bright yellow walls. I ordered a White Peach Oolong Tea for me and their Jasmine Green Tea for my fiancé, both 25% sugar. They make delicious boba tea here, while still preserving the earthyness of the tea leaves, and the tea flavor didn't get lost in the sweetness of the sugar. My oolong tea had a deep earthy depth of flavor, and the jasmine tea had a light floral aroma. Totally perfect to us! I love how they prepare snacks as well. It is perfect when I get the late-night munchies. Their egg waffle is made fresh and has a soft, chewy, addictive texture to it. Crunchy on the outside because of the waffle press, and chewy on the inside. Its just a little sweet and rich in egg flavor. Again, perfect! They are located on Glendora Avenue, a small downtown area of West Covina. There is easy parking in front of the shop which is really convenient. Thank you Bobaland team members for being one of the only late night boba shops open in the Duarte, Monrovia, and Covina, area. You will see me there very often so I wanted to say thank you for considering the late-night boba-goers out here! read more

Taste like ice and oat milk. I told them and no luck on fixing it . As a tax payer in America this is unexceptionable. read more
love the late hours. i ordered popcorn chicken even at 11pm, chicken was fresh and crispy. the spicy powder is really spicy so they kindly gave it to me on the side. the fish balls were ok, just like regular fish balls and i don't think it was worth $6. the drinks are good too. read more

They forgot to put spicy pounder in my popcorn chicken. This is not the first time. Whoever work on Sunday doesn't know how to make it. Hopefully owner see this review. read more
Bobaland is a cool and calm luh boba spot tucked away in a pretty big plaza. There are a good amount of parking spots all around. To spot this place, look for a bright yellow business. For seating, they have about 2-3 tables inside and a couple benches outside. They have a good selection on their menu of different milk teas, fruit teas, slushies, and some food options too. Wifey and I got the Lala Fruit Tea and the Roasted Oolong Milk Tea. Both drinks were out in about 5 minutes after we ordered! The drinks were refreshing with good flavors and a balance of sweetness. Overall, this spot satisfies the boba cravings forsure. They are also open until midnight which makes it a great option for a late night boba run. Service is quick and efficient and the staff here are friendly and welcoming. read more

Local boba spot in West Covina that has great quick service and delicious drinks. The quality of the drinks is great and the pricing is worth it. The ambiance was very vibrant and welcoming as well as the workers. The other best part of this place is that they are open pretty late until 12am everyday. I would recommend giving this place a try. Features: Open late Indoor seating Great study spot LGBTQ+ friendly read more

Great service, great drinks..! I got one black tea, one strawberry swirl w boba and one Tara w boba. Very good quality and hand made drinks. The service was very polite. The prices were decent for the quality and service you receive. I will be coming back from now on. Thank you boba land I found my new tea and boba home. read more
If it's your first time going here it's pretty hard to spot. It's literally a hole in the wall. A little helpful tip, it a bright yellow shop. The menu was a decent amount of variety. But I always check out their classic milk tea when trying out a new place. The milk and tea is a perfect blend. It not over sweet at 50%. Definitely would recommend! read more
I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the drinks & food came out at Bobaland. My friends and I decided to come here because it was the only boba spot open late and I was so happy to discover this gem! The drinks were quite delicious & the food was so flavorful. The fries & popcorn chicken were crispy & flavorful. The fries kinda reminded me of Potato Corner (the French fry place in the Santa Anita mall or Glendale mall... SO flavorful and delicious). The only negative thing I can say was we were waiting a long time for our food because the worker accidentally gave our food away to someone else -- but we didn't mind since we were just hanging out. The drinks were so yummy too! I tried my friends boba drink & the boba was surprisingly chewy. I would come back & try other drinks :D Ordered: - Popcorn Chicken - Flavored French Fries - Mango Yogurt - Strawberry Yogurt - Honey Green Milk Tea w Boba - Matcha Latte read more

I was looking for any Boba place that open late to order some refreshing drinks after a long day at work. Fortunately, I found out that Bobaland open until midnight, Horray! I placed the following drinks for delivery; -white peach oolong tea - Chocolate Swirl - Lala fruit tea - crème Brulée Thai Tea - Fish Balls for a quick snack (It was really good) The chocolate swirl was rich, right sweetness and delicious. The crème brulèe was very refreshing, one of the best Thai tea I had ever tried. The white peach oolong tea had floral taste combined with the delicacy of white peach. Finally the Lala fruit tea was flavorful and fruity. It had watermelon, 2 slices of lemon, 1slice of orange. These drinks were the perfect answer to my craving. Hopefully I will stop by their place in person to try different drinks and snacks read more

Adorable place! Nice cashier, yummy smoothie & food. Definitely Will be back again. Also got a bubble waffle not pictured. read more
Been here a few times over the last year -- it's a small and cute place. I got their Roasted Oolong Boba Milk Tea and it was pretty decent! I'd say definitely be patient with the staff there because they're not overly welcome but will get the job done well. I also quite like their fruit and fresh teas because they include fresh fruit in their drinks! Glad that there's a conveniently located milk tea shop around! Each of these drinks hovered around the $6-7 range and they all came in this large size, which is pretty standard for milk tea shops around this time. read more

Cute spot for a quick boba and decent snacks (French friend, waffle and popcorn chicken). The teas are pretty decent, my Lala fruit tea fast pretty legit, got 2 big fives jd water melon and 2 slices of oranges in it. There 3 small table and 7 chairs inside, not big for a big crowd, more like a come and pickup place, but pretty cute inside! read more

Great hole in the wall boba spot. Lots of parking space and the boba drinks are delicious. My go to is the house milk tea and the Thai tea creme Brulee. Spacing in the café is a tad bit tight but overall great boba and service. read more

Do they use any fresh brewed teas? And are there any nondairy milk options (almond, soy)?
You can ask if they have dairy alternatives. It wont be on the menu because it needs to be specifically asked for.
