it was my first time trying boba, was very impressed. thought service would be slow since there was only one worker and multiple people ordering but the blonde girl , I think her name was jocelyn ,was fast and my whole family loved our mango smoothies. will def be back read more

I used to get a mint slush 10+ years ago at a different location and they didnt have here so the owner tried to make it. It wasnt the same so the owner made a new drink for free. Shes very friendly and did everything she could to make us happy. Would go again. read more

I'm not a big fan of these chain boba places. They are alright, I've had better boba from non chain places. I got the piña colada with boba and it was good my bf got a strawberry one and it was lacking a bit of flavor. They were about to close so the service was good and prompt. Overall it was okay. You can't go wrong at any boba loca. read more

This place smells like the nail salon right next door... But it's good boba when your craving it.

This place is fantastic! I have only tried a few drinks here but every time, it tastes yummy and they are always consistent. The service is quick and the employees are friendly. The only thing which may be an issue for some is that it is a small place so if it's packed you may have to take your drink with you. I recommended either the strawberry smoothie or the vanilla frap with boba. read more

I love the passion fruit tea and cookie and cream drinks. They are very generous with boba, but they are very pricy for their drinks.:(

The Boba is always delicious. A bit pricey for drinks. I love the Thai tea and green tea frap. It's clean and we'll maintained. They have a nice customer service. They recently started selling macaroon ice cream sandwiches . They are really good but for 3.50$ each is not worth it. read more

Horrible almond Milk tea. Horrible service. I've never experienced a really strong taste like theirs. I asked the girl who made it up front if she can replace it for something else. She refused and said "well next time tell us to put less sugar in it." Like I was supposed to know that drink had too much sugar in it. Smh. It's my first time and last. screw this Wack service. Bye boba loca read more

This is my go to for boba mostly because it's convenient, close to home, and The boba is pretty good. The customer service here is not amazing but it's not bad either. It's just ok a bunch of young girls doing their job trying to get the customers in and out. I just had excellent customer service experience at another boba place with lots of suggestions and the girl was SUPER friendly, which is why I think these girls need to step up their game a notch :) but as far as boba it's good. I don't think it's really missing anything and the prices are pretty good, service is prompt. No complaints, just a small suggestion, put on your smiles girls, and suggest drinks to your customers according to things you have tried and liked read more

This is probably one of the cleaner/better bobaloca's in the 562 area, but wow.... was the service bad.... I walked in an hour and a half before they closed. They were already sweeping (no big deal at all, I used to work food and I would clean super early too) BUT the problem was that one of the workers made eye contact with me when I walked in and CONTINUED to sweep the entire floor before welcoming me or taking my order! I had to stand there awkwardly waiting for her to finish so I can finally get some service. Boba was of course great. Note to staff: at least welcome the customers and if it's that serious that you can't stop sweeping for a few seconds, then excuse yourself and tell them you'll be right with them in a second. read more

I have came here on different days weekdays and weekends and its always the same. Be prepared to wait for your boba. I feel bad for the employee, it's only one person, and there hustling to get your drink made. I blame the mediocre customer service on the store owner of this franchise for not putting two employees. The bobas are good and they have a good variety. So be prepared to wait that's all I'm saying. read more

Nice clean up to date looking place. They just have the basics though, milk tea, smoothies, Frappes...nothing interesting like at a real tea/boba place. They had boba which was kinda mushy but I've had worst. No grass jelly. I got the almond milk tea it was lukewarm for some reason . My date got a taro slush it was good a little too sweet though. Service was kinda slow but there were only two people working an it was packed so it was expected. 4 stars considering there aren't that many options nearby for decent boba. This place was decent. read more

Good drinks, service and clean. Will come back again. The almond milk tea with boba is so good!

Love this place! Everyone is friendly and their drinks are amazing! For all you coffee lovers I recommend boba coffee!

I have only been to this location once, it was nice, parking was not that plentiful, but my Mango Boba Slush was good.Nice just right sweet chewy boba is the key for me. The slush was tasty also. There were about 5 people before me and the young ladies there where very fast & efficient. If an when I am in the area and want a boba drink I will return. read more

Love the fact that every time we come here with my daughter is super clean and not only that but the girls are super nice and they even give us samples of different drinks they have. The smoothies, slushies all of them are delicious. I really recommend this place! read more

I got Jasmin Tea Boba. its pretty good, but its kinda too sweet! the bobas itself doesn't feel authentic. came here because I was in Downey and it was convenient. Friendly service. read more

Pretty good Boba and place looks recently renovated. Take card thank god!

WORST Customer Service I have ever received !!! These two girls were on their phones ..took for ever to make my bobas & made them wrong !!! Then gave me attitude when I asked if they could fix them !!! I forgot to get the manager info read more

It's the closest Bobaloca near my house, I live in bell gardens. The staff is really friendly I'm a regular! I usually get the coconut milk tea, it's so good and so creamy LOL the Boba coffee is also really good and not to mention the green tea frappe is super good as well, oh and the Thai tea is good too :) read more

Best boba spot in Downey! Really fast service, staff is very friendly. I love their macaroons and milk teas.

I LOVE BOBALOCA. my obsession and my weakness. Can't get enough of it and the remodeling is just a plus. Oh yes and the accessorie display is just a BIG PLUS read more

They try their best with the service. They need more staff because there is usually only 3 people working and there should be 4-5 because it take about 8-10 just so they can place the order. If you're coming here be prepared to spend a good 15-20 minutes when there is more than 3 people ordering. Although their service is average, their drinks are delicious, i recommend the oreo shake and mocha frappe read more

I don't usually go to Boba Locas but one of the few times I did I was served by a male employee. In simplest terms, he was rude in the way he would assist me. For example since I do not know the menu very well I asked the description of each drink I was interested in trying and the differences between them since they all sound so alike and he seemed overwhelmed when explaining this. I decided on a milk tea drink with extra boba tapioca pearls. While he was a making this drink I happened to glance around the store and spotted macaroons, which I have never had but heard of and wanted to know the price. Before even beginning to ask for the price, he loudly and quickly answered without looking at me. When he finished making my drink he set it on top of the counter and gave me a tired look and just walked away. This guy also seemed to be by himself and there was no people in here either. Just me and him. Please, I work in customer service where many people visit the restaurant frequently one after the other if not we have a whole occupancy in the room. I doubt it is a hard job to do and I also doubt that this particular individual would like to be treated this way either. I want to say this visit was within the first weeks of March on a Monday at approximately 11 am. read more

I've worked in the customer service industry long enough to understand how to treat a customer. If someone orders something and for whatever reason it's not what the "ordered" you should remake it, simple and with no hassle. Yet today both the employees set to correct my order then providing me with details on how to order next time. Shocked with the rudeness and bluntness I asked for a refund. Even if I was wrong you don't need to make me feel dumb for a product/service I paid for. Especially when I tipped you. read more

The staff is friendly and the service is good. My daughter loves this place, she looks forward to sharing time with her dad over a good smoothy. Today we went one of our drinks tasted different than usual Ivett was very help full and offered us to remake it, she was friendly and went above and be on to make things better. I cant wait to go back :) read more

Need to clean the floors and chairs. Not cozy cause lights are too bright. But the tea was Really good! read more

Whenever I'm in this neck of the woods, and craving boba I definitely go to this place!(-: Great boba! & A large variety.

I really love this place! The coconut milk tea and Thai Tea are my favorites, but I also like the Jasmine Milk Tea. My son is a huge fan of the Oreo shake and Green Tea Latte. I think it's odd people say the boba here is bad.... The boba here is the best I've EVER had! very soft and flavorful. I must admit though, it truly depends on who makes the boba for the day. I have had hard bad batches before, but it's very rare. The owner of this location is so very sweet! read more

The girls working on 5/10 were super rude and uncomfortable. I was happy, my first Mother's Day, and the chunky worker with blondish hair just glared at me the whole time I was in there. I don't know why......felt like the twilight zone. She's lucky I just came from church and was in a good mood cause man, I don't like rude ass customer service, especially when I didn't do anything to deserve it. read more

Great green tea boba plus they put a lot of boba

Thank you Eleana for being amazing!!!! Boba loca has the best customer service!!! Plus their milk tea boba is on point!!!!

Best boba iced coffee in the world! They use real fruits in their slushes! The watermelon and the lychee are divine! And like I said before, they use real fruit, not the syrups that taste like fruit! Always stop by when I'm in the area! read more

This place has the best service ever! The cashier was friendly, knowledgeable, and so quick! We had our drinks within seconds. Definitely will go back if in the area and am craving perfect Thai tea. read more

Went on a mission to find some delicious BOBA since we had a terrible experience at a random location in Orange County. I had seen this place a couple of times before so I decided to give it a try. The service was a little slow, they weren't too busy but since there was only one employee working both the register and making drinks we ended up having to wait about 15 minutes to order our drinks. I had the caramel frappé with classic boba, my daughter ordered the strawberry smoothie with strawberry popping boba, which I found both interesting & delicious. The wait time was definitely worth it! The drinks were made to perfection not too sweet but sweet enough. They could use a better array of pastries since I would have loved to have a little snack with my drink but nothing really caught my eye, most of the items were pre packaged. The only odd thing was the jewelry case in the dining area I didn't really get the correlation lol. We will definitely stop by again soon. read more

Loyal customer!! I order the taro slush with boba and lychee. I like that it is very clean and customer service is good. The drinks I wouldn't say are expensive, like some have mentioned, but not definitely not the cheapest around. read more

I ordered a melon slushy talk about a spoon full of sugar! This place brags about how healthy their drinks are for you,the tapioca balls are, not the one pound of sugar that's added to them!! Oh and their so called return policy "you ordered it we cannot exchange or refund" WTF!!! read more
