    Blue Lagoon
    Kait D.

    My friend loves this place, so I dropped by with him on a Saturday and was pleasantly surprised by how empty it was. There was only one table for two located below the menu screens which meant people were staring in our direction to look at the menu the whole time we were seated which can be off-putting, especially if you like your personal space. I asked for the chococat with strawberries instead of raspberries which they were able to do for me. It tased incredible like a chocolate covered strawberry and I enjoyed my drink. I just wished they'd offered oat milk since almond milk is just as bad for the environment as regular dairy. I appreciated how accommodating and friendly the staff were. The bathroom is unisex, and was clean when I went in. I also appreciated how clean the entire cafe was including the tables. Our drinks were made quickly and packaged well. My friend got a blue lagoon which is his go-to and he loved it. He also really enjoyed the music they were playing at the store.

    Forgot to take a pic of my Purple Galaxy. Never had an Oreo/Taro mix but maan I loved it. If you love both and have a never tried this combo (and if you like sweet treats), this is the one. A bit cramped and long lines, and also a lil' loud on the inside. But don't let that stop you from getting that Purple Galaxy

    This has to be one of my favorite boba places for fruit tea's. My personal favorite now is the lychee green tea with boba and lychee pieces. The drink isn't bitter or too sweet so it's a great in between. The restaurant itself is very clean and the service is pretty fast!

    Great tasting slush, low price, option for 0% sweetness, quick service, very friendly cashier, what more can I ask for?! I wish this place was in Chicago! This really hit the spot after the heat this week! The music inside is bumping!

    Soooo YUM. Was recommended this spot while staying in the Tukwila area and was NOT disappointed. Loved the drink options, the staff was quick and the atmosphere was very cool. I ordered the Cuddles on the Beach Smoothie which consists of a peach base with strawberry and mango. Delicious! Will definitely make this a regular tukwila stop in.

    The Boba is pretty mid. Only came here because it open late. Customer service was weird asf. I get that they have sketchy teenagers coming here late at night, but scanning a $10 bill to check if it's real was weird, embarrassing and warranted a review. Maybe they thought I wanted free food because I saw they had musubis, but after getting a closer look I changed my mind because they looked gross. I get I came in modest joggers, and didn't look my best. but after they did that I felt the need to flash my Louis Vuitton wallet when I got my change back purposely not leave a tip felt extremely satisfying. Never judge a book by its cover.

    Love boba lust, always open late. I also love that the jelly's are fun shaped (lychee are stars!). The service is nice, the drinks are always solid. We both got half sweet and they're still pretty sweet. We decided to try the macaroons, we got four and it was 50% hit or miss. Half of them were really good and the other half were hard. Would and have gone back. Raiju (lychee passion fruit peach black tea with lychee jelly and peach bits): 9 Cali kiss (passion fruit black tea with lychee jelly and mango bits ): 7.5 Macarons: Viet coffee: 4/10 (hard) Strawberry: 3/10 (hard) Chocolate: 9/10 Milk tea: 6/10 (tastes like brown sugar not tea, not strong flavor)

    Service was great. They were friendly and welcoming. The lychee strawberry explosion drink was good. I wasn't really into the raspberry, strawberry, honeydew drink because you could taste the artificial.

    Go here all the time and almost always get the lychee lemonade (one of their "signature teas"). The jellies are just the right chew and the drink is perfect sweetness and tartness and flavor. (It is realllyyy sweet tho- as are most of their drinks.) They're also open late (11pm). Tonight's staff member was super friendly (A+). 75 cent charge per add ons but most of the signature drinks have included toppings ($6-6.50). Milk teas, original teas, and original slush are all $5 (no toppings included, so you gotta add on). My cousins love the purple galaxy (blended taro and Oreo). Music is always a lil too loud so if that's your vibe go for it (music ain't bad tho, just loud if u wanna chill and talk).

    I forgot to take a picture of my drink but I got the honeydew with tapioca. It was alright - refreshing after a long flight. I ordered this originally but I got a honeydew milk tea instead but the staff was really nice and they made me the right drink right away so I thought the service was good. They did run out of oat milk otherwise I'd keep the order but otherwise I appreciate the service & the boba did the job for what I needed.

    Thai Green Tea with boba - IG @bougiefoodieboi

    I was lusting to suck on some black balls in the late night hours cause I want to feel something (not what you think, it's boba... chill lol), and BobaLust hits the spot in 2 dimensions: the chill ambience and their late hours. Before BobaLust, the typical decent Seattle boba shop will close at like 8pm and any later than that, you are stuck with very mediocre options that close at midnight (you know where). Some friends and I went here around 10:15pm while it was pouring rain outside, and I resisted the urge but failed. So many people recommended the Thai green tea and I personally haven't had Thai green tea before so I decided to get that with honey boba, so yolo, what is sleep. Now, the Thai green tea is worth keeping me up late at night until 4am because there is so much caffeine. It is very fragrant and even though I opted for half sugar and half ice, it is a full drink and nothing is watered down. The boba is very good, not the best, but excellent especially at this hour. It is soft and chewy, as you expect, and they are quite flavorful too. One small bonus is that you can be as wholesome or unhinged as you want here - the cup has "I only love boba & ____" and you can write anything you want! Let me know what you say!

    An absolute WA gem! Always a must when I'm in the area. I'd 100% bring any tourists here. The drinks are always consistent and delicious. Adjust sweetness levels if needed, they're a bit on the sweeter side. The workers are always the kindest as well. My go-to drink is always the purple galaxy with boba (taro smoothie with oreo blend) !! The best drink imo. I'd recommend to come with friends so you can taste multiple of their drinks at once. Hit this place up if you haven't already!!

    Cute decor :)
    Sierra W.

    Have been to multiple BobaLust locations and this one is great! Friendly and kind staff and great spot to sit for an hour to talk and enjoy your time. Love the cute wall decor. Not pictured but we also got the cuddles on the beach smoothie which was delicious! Jasmine tea was good but any location I have been to I feel the boba itself the chew quality isn't the best sometimes like today too hard.

    Ask the Community - BobaLust Tea House

    Is there any almond milk substitutes or other dairy-free options?

    We have non-dairy creamer!

    Do you offer non dairy milk (almond or coconut milk)?

    As of right now we offer non-dairy creamer as our non-dairy option

    Is this the new spot for Fast & Furious car meets? Lol.

    Ask any racer. Any real racer. We live our life one bubble tea at a time. - Dom Toretto

    What exactly is the "Angels Envy" consisted of?

    It’s a secret! What we can say is it’s made with two different flavors, one that isn’t anywhere else on the menu. It’s tart, floral, with a nice blend of fruitiness. Next time you come in, be adventurous and order the Angels Envy!

    Do they have hot bubble tea?

    As of right now BobaLust does not serve hot drinks

    Is there wifi/outlets? Was wondering if it's a good study place!

    Yes outlets at every table and WiFi!

    Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #105…read more I first visited a Tra Viet location in Vegas, not expecting it to be a small chain originating in Washington! On the drive up back from Portland recently, we decided to stop by the original location (and only stand-alone store left in Washington) in Renton, down near the Boeing factory. This boba shop is known for serving drinks in essentially soda cans, complete with pop top. It's a unique concept, but it also means that value is less than competitors since the drink size is much smaller. Still, the quality is pretty high, at least enough to get us to visit based on what we ordered at the Las Vegas location. We ordered two drinks on our visit: Classic Milk Tea w/ Boba ($7.25) - No adjustments are allowed in this drink. The drink has a surprisingly strong malty flavor that pairs with the creamer nicely, delivering a thick and enjoyable experience. I believe the drink is premixed, which is why sweetness adjustments aren't allowed. Unfortunately it is too sweet for my tastes, especially since the boba soak adds even more sugar to the mixture. The ice levels, even at 100%, isn't too much. They use crushed ice that's easier to melt. The boba is of the mini variety, soaked well in syrup. They are actually cooked perfectly for this particular variety - great consistent chew and bounce on each tiny little pearl. I normally prefer full sized boba, but this one is very nice. I think their recipe can only use the mini boba - with the normal size boba at this texture, I would probably call it too firm, but it's perfect for the mini. Milk Tea Rating: 4/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 Jasmine Milk Tea, Less Sweet w/ Boba ($7.25) - This milk tea is very perfume-like with plenty of jasmine flower flavor. With the less sweet option, it's around 50% sweet compared to other shops, which matches up with my tastes. Again, it has good body but no dairy flavor. Overall a solid drink. We actually drank this about 2 hours after the Classic Milk Tea and somehow the boba was exactly the same texture. Usually the pearls start hardening up, but this was still perfect! Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 Usually places like this which focus on gimmicks don't exactly serve the best drinks. Tra Viet seems to be an exception. I'd be happy to return any time I'm down in Renton! Bathrooms - I didn't see any in store, but I also didn't ask the bobarista for availability.

    TP TEA @ SOUTHCENTER…read more Parking is available, but there honestly aren't that many spots probably around 5-6 dedicated spaces. The rest are shared with nearby businesses like AT&T, and it was surprisingly packed for a Thursday afternoon. Luckily, we found one spot all the way in the back under AT&T, but I do wish there was more parking available or a larger lot. Getting there from the freeway is pretty easy though, you basically just make a quick right turn straight into TP Tea, but it can be easy to miss if you're not paying attention. I've been to this boba shop before in San Diego, so when I saw a location in Washington, I knew I had to bring my dad. I ordered the lychee fruit tea, and he got the mango tea with light ice and added boba. One downside is that this location doesn't allow substitutions like the San Diego one does, I usually swap lychee jelly for boba at no extra cost, but here they charge extra. The service wasn't the best. When we walked in, the staff didn't seem very welcoming and mostly just looked at us. There was only one self-order kiosk, and a couple was taking a while on it (which is totally fine), but the employees didn't step in to help take orders either. It felt a bit inconvenient since we were just waiting to see if anyone would help us, but eventually they did take our order. The drinks themselves were pretty good. My dad's mango tea ended up being more icy than expected even though we asked for light ice, I think it's because it's a blended drink, so the consistency was thinner rather than thicker. My lychee tea was really good though, I'd definitely recommend it. Even at 50% sweetness, it leaned on the sweeter side, but still very enjoyable. The ambiance is nice, the space is big with plenty of seating, and there's a steady flow of people coming in and out. Overall, it's still a solid spot to check out. Just be prepared for limited parking and slightly inconsistent service.

The environment: The place was very well lit up, clean, and very colorful. There were tables and chairs for dining in, as well! The service: There are touch screens to order on and browse menu options. Honestly, this made it easier for me to figure out all the options lol. I got my food very quickly after I ordered and the employee there was very courteous and kind! The food: I did the option of making my own drink - which is both extremely cool and helpful!!! I got strawberry jasmine tea, lychee jelly, unicorn soft serve ice cream (blue vanilla), and strawberry syrup. It was amazing, though I was nervous to try it. The jasmine tea did clash a little bit with the ice cream at first, but not once it all got mixed up and melted. I played it safe by getting mostly strawberry themed and neutral flavors, so I don't know what would happen if one were to do more clashing flavors. Altogether, the drink was $11.98, but I count it worth the price Final thoughts: I'm really, really glad I tried 32 Below! It'll definitely become one of my usual places for fun drinks. I definitely recommend it for anyone who's both a big fan of soft serve ice cream and bubble tea!
