A few months ago, one of my friends and I met nearby and we walked the sunset dunes with my little fur ball. We were so caught up in our conversation while walking that we didn't even notice the time and how much distance we covered. After we noticed, we walked back towards Noriega where she was parked and I decided to check out Bobaville. Nice to have a boba place near the beach. Smallish takeout shop, clean and minimalist. I got a strawberry matcha latte. Very refreshing. Located on Noriega and 45th Ave. read more

Was going to order the Strawberry Matcha Latte, but the Passionfruit one caught my attention instead. After placing my order, the drink was ready in no time. This match latte was much thicker than others I had. Good matcha flavor and just the right amount of passionfruit. Quite enjoyed this drink. read more

I was in the city and went to try out this place as it was across another popular eatery across the street. This paired extremely well with the biscuit sandwich I had. It wasn't too sweet and the flavors tasted very well together. The service was a bit slow due to only one person making it in the back. But each drink tasted like it wasn't rushed and so much effort was put into them. Shoutout to the solo worker for working the front of house, managing uber/doordash orders. There is a kiosk to order from and the lobby is pretty small. Definitely would come back though. read more

On a super hot San Francisco day, a nice refreshing boba drink always hits the spot. I've tried Bobaville near Serramonte so good for them for being able to expand into the outer Sunset Noriega strip. I decided to go with the peach matcha latte and it was just alright. The matcha was barely there and it was definitely more of a peach milk more than anything else. Before you say, oh it's because peach is a strong flavor, I recently had the same at another boba place that was super solid so I know it can be done. Boyfriend got the mango summer tea which was strong but refreshing from the mint leaves. He added the homemade grass jelly but found it unremarkable. Nonetheless, the service was fast and the space was cute and clean. Moreover, the menu also features some options you don't see anywhere else and I appreciate that. read more

I loved the selection available at this Bobaville location! My friend and I came here on a weekend afternoon, and there were people coming in and out of the boba shop with various drinks. I tried their Roasted Oolong Salted Crema, which had a delicious roasted taste and creamy, slightly savory touch that balanced out the roasted taste well. It was a good drink for something smooth and not overly sweet! My friend ordered their Ice Cream Tea, and she chose Thai Tea with Mango Ice Cream. A fun and unique idea, the Thai Tea blended well with the Mango Ice Cream and was refreshing! On top of having your usual Boba flavors, Bobaville also has some unique flavors and combinations worth a try! read more

Bobaville has a good product-market fit; when you're finished walking Great Highway or am craving boba in the Sunset but don't want to trek up to Eggettes or find parking around Irving for Tpumps. The menu is quite robust with main drinks such as milk tea/matcha/specialty drinks that don't stray too far into creativity. So far, we've tried- Roasted Oolong Salted Crema Hong Kong Milk Tea Jasmine Milk Tea I would caution at ordering 100% sweet (it's a bit too much), oat milk isn't the worth the upcharge here; they're good for their simple and basic drinks however their unique ones should be left to the more established boba brands. read more

Bobaville - Mango Matcha Latte - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Usually, Bobaville is fairly reliable for milk tea and boba, but the most recent drink was wholly awful. Ordered the HK milk tea and it tasted like slightly flavored water. I did order with almond milk, but also ordered 100% sweetness (I checked the receipt afterwards to be sure). Definitely needed to add quite a bit of sugar to make the drink palatable. Otherwise, my other experiences have been uneventful. You order from their kiosk (there's only one) rather than from an actual person, though you can ask the staff in back for customizations or for any questions you have. Prices are fair for milk tea these days, about $7-8. read more

Great spot for boba near the Upper Great Highway! Stopped by for a pick me up on our walk and were able to order immediately. We got a classic milk tea with boba, but since this was our first time we didn't really have a good gauge on sweetness levels. The drink ended up being a little TOO sweet for our liking (we went w 70%). I'd probably recommend 50% or below for people who like their drinks light sweet. No seating so grab&go, ordering is thru a kiosk. read more

I have to say this was the most disappointing iced Matcha latte I've ever had. Absolutely no Matcha flavor, no emerald green Matcha color. Basically oat milk on ice that had a pale, sad green tone and tasted like oat milk. I took one sip and put it on top of the garbage can. I really should've gone back and let you know because you need to know. Making a good Matcha is not difficult. Maybe 15 years ago this is what a Matcha tasted like. Some tips; - Make your Matcha concentrate 3-4 times stronger. - stir it before you pour it into the drink. It's obviously settled sitting in your refrigerator in that plastic pitcher - use glass bottles with easy pour spouts - measure your matcha shot - You are using way too much milk. Go to a place like KIss of Matcha, Asha, or a Stonemill and try an iced latte. The bar is set super high in the last couple years for matcha here. I understand though, because you guys are basically a Boba shop and all your other teas are basically drinkable and people buy. But I would take Matcha off your menu if you're not gonna do the work. It's just kind of embarrassing to serve it like that. Sorry! The staff seemed super nice and the place seemed very clean, but otherwise a bummer.... read more

Bobaville was decent enough to satisfy the craving but nothing special to me. The hong Kong milk tea wasn't nearly strong enough and a bit watered down. The boba was slightly too soft but at least it's homemade! read more

Boba options looking pretty scarce in this area. Hoping Bobaville can fill in this spot nicely, but so far it's a bit of a miss for us. We ordered the classic house milk tea and their strawberry matcha. We stirred it well because everything is deconstucted (instructions and info on their cups). The strawberry puree was more like jam. We either tasted only strawberry or just matcha - no in between for the drink. The classic house milk tea was okay. I'm used to the grass jelly sitting at the bottom instead of floating at the top. Not an issue though. The store looks very minimalistic. No seating indoor or outside. Service was pretty fast. No real gripe about this though. read more

Tried the jasmine milk tea with boba when a friend brought it over to our place. The jasmine tea flavor was nice though the boba was only ok. Our friends tried the classic milk tea with boba which was also reportedly okay. The peach milk drink was a hit with the kids. Viewing the menu and ordering online was very easy. A recommendation for the business is to consider using more eco friendly packaging for their products. read more

The boba smoothies and the milk purées are really good, except the tea was only okay. The matcha tasted like milk. The service is good and it takes about seven minutes for three drinks.

Next to the Yonkers you will find a boba-place where you will be served the most unpleasant drink. Watery and artificial flavours.

Cute little shop. If you're not careful you can miss it among all the other little restaurants and shops. Service is nice and boba is delicious!

They are open on New Years which was great, since the other two places we tried were not. I love the handmade boba -- balls were a bit irregular but that's expected, they did have a great taste and perfect chewiness. Peach flavor was present but overpowering and surprisingly complemented the matcha well. Drink was perfectly sweet without adjusting sugar level. Service was quick despite how busy they were. There is no seating but there is street parking available, so we ended up just walking back to the car. The exterior almost blends into the rest of the building so we almost didn't find it at first. read more

Handmade boba is a real gamechanger. I was so glad to find refuge after walking blocks and blocks of boba-less streets. The menu looks almost exactly like the Daly City location which is my top 3. Glad to see this place did not disappoint. I typically order the plain drinks. Nothing overly sweet, like the HK Milk Tea. This time I tried the Matcha Latte. Much yum. read more

Bobaville - Matcha Latte with Boba ($6.50) - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

You know, for the longest time, I used to wonder why there weren't more boba shops around the outer edge of the Sunset District. I get that the area out here doesn't get the same foot traffic as the stretch of Irving by 19th Ave, for example, but that's also my point - without much competition, and given all of the nearby schools, a good boba shop could kill it! So, you can imagine how delighted I was to see that Bobaville opened up their second location out here. Granted, I'd yet to try their original location in Daly City either, but I had heard so many good things about it from friends that I couldn't help but feel excited to see one pop up so much closer to me! Now, I should note that I'm fully aware that Eggettes offers boba and they aren't all that far from here. However, like several of my longtime, go-to spots on this side of SF, they seem to have fallen off over the years (or my taste has just improved). As such, Bobaville and their collection of drinks is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Sure, it'd be nice if they also had food offerings as well, but I'm not going to quibble over that. Not when nearly every variety of tea, matcha, smoothie, and coffee on the sounds so enticing! Plus, their boba is made in house, so huge plus points for that! -- ICE CREAM TEA - Choice of Tea (Black) with a Scoop of French Vanilla Ice Cream...$5.25 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bobaville-san-francisco?select=LQDRb2MBz1ULEKv_hDW4Zw) Pretty unique...and delicious! Given the ice cream, I asked for 25% and it was just right after mixing everything together. Surprisingly, the texture could've been creamier, but I liked how the ice cream complemented the tea rather than overpowered it. -- HONG KONG MILK TEA - Black Tea Serviced with Sugar and Evaporated Milk...$5 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bobaville-san-francisco?select=D5e97dLNVULjYmSYjIpu3w) Not as good as the Ice Cream Tea, but still pretty solid! It was a little sweet at 75%, but not as sweet as other places' 75%. As far as taste goes, it was quite tasty, though the consistency was a little bit on the watery side for me. -- ALMOND TEA - Almond Flavored Black Tea with Non-Dairy Creamer...$5.25 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bobaville-san-francisco?select=E8pk-BqxV_LBbeWN6TDEWw) I got this one at 50% sweet and it was just right - just enough to complement the almond flavor (though I wish the latter was stronger). I also added their Homemade Boba to try (+$.75) and it was fantastic! Flavorful with a nice, tender chewiness to it. -- MANGO KING - Ultra Creamy Mango Drink Made With Mango Puree, Mango Ice Cream, and Whipped Cream...$6.50 (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bobaville-san-francisco?select=5paQ6QpSojsspGeK-xTs5Q) I came for this after hearing so many good things from friends and it is SO GOOD! The consistency is perfect (super creamy but not thick) and it's full of mango flavors from the ice cream and the puree. One of my new favorites anywhere! In addition to their tasty drinks, another big positive about Bobaville is their staff. Every time I've been here, the workers have always been super friendly and seem genuinely happy to help when folks have asked questions. I also love how relatively easy it is to find nearby parking. Of course, it's even easier at night, but they close somewhat early (6pm on most nights, 8pm on Fridays and Saturdays), which is really the only "bad" thing about them. I mean, I get why (not many places out here stay open late), but if they were to close a bit later, I'm sure folks like me would make the drive from elsewhere just because everything here tastes so good! All in all, I'm not sure what I'm happier about - the fact that Bobaville has opened up in SF, that I've finally learned what so many other Yelpers have already known about them, or that they were as good as I had hoped. I'm not sure if I'd go so far as to say that they're my favorite boba shop around, but they're certainly one of my favorites on this side of The City. Yes, even ahead of my nostalgic favorite, Wonderful Desserts. FOUR AND A HALF STARS rounded up. read more

They were open on thanksgiving so we decided to grab some boba! They were unfortunately out of boba though :( Their drinks were good, but nothing spectacular. Ihe mango king is very creamy and sweet (even with less sugar), so I'd prefer a mango slush at Eggettes because it's more nostalgic to me. I will say that their boba is usually great, and I will be back when I'm craving their homemade boba+tea! read more

Found this little spot that has homemade boba, not something you see often. It's made fresh and is super warm when it comes in your drink. The boba has a chewy consistency that is different from the usual and reminds me more of super chewy mochi. I usually order the Jasmine milk tea with boba and even at 50% it is too sweet for me. If you have a sweet tooth, you'll probably like it here. They're always super quick at making the drinks which is a plus! Just note, no where to sit so it's more of an order to go. read more

Will be coming back! The cashier recommended the classic and jasmine milk tea and we got both. I'm a fan of classic teas and I'd rank this top 3 classic milk tea in my book! Super impressed by the fragrant flavors, but it's not so strong or bitter to get you wired. A plus is that it's nondairy creamer. Jasmine is light and floral while the classic is a nice toasted slightly chocolatey tea flavor. We also got the handmade boba and it's perfectly chewy, though could benefit from soaking in honey or sugar syrup to get the flavor throughout. Asked for light sweetness for the tea and it's perfect. read more

This is my go to boba place. My order is a mango summer tea which is a mango tea with a hint of mint. Sparse options on mango drinks so some of my friends aren't fans of this place but their milk tea is a crowd favorite among my friends. I mostly order ahead of time so that my drink is ready but the few times that I've waited in store, the boba is good to go in 5-10 minutes which isn't a super long wait. This location and the one in Daly City have similar store designs which are simplistic with a tablet for easy ordering and a cashier who takes orders. Easy to order and open concept store front. The only thing is that I wish they had a rewards program because I'd be a top level rewards member if they did. read more

Nearly flawless. I followed the recommendation of fellow Yelpers and ordered the "Mango King" (add boba), and wow I'm at a loss for words. The execution is where this drink shines, and in particular the combination of ingredients in a thoughtful (though not overwhelming) way. To start, I'd definitely recommend adding boba. I think I read that it's homemade, and the consistency was great. These are smaller pearls, with just enough bite to add needed texture to an otherwise silky beverage, but not so much as to detract from the latter. The mango slush is creamy, not watery at all, and the perfect sweetness (I ordered mine "normal"); it drinks like a shake. The added crema on top is borderline decadent and complements the fruitiness of the mango quite well. Bonus scoop of ice cream (!) makes the whole thing melt into a beautiful concoction. I'll definitely be back! read more

Bobaville is seriously so underrated! The drinks here are always on point and the boba is quality you can actually taste.

Yay bobaville sf !! Handmade boba made it to outer sunset. Same exact menu as the Daly City location. You can order ahead through their bobaville website, or order on their iPad guilt free and lastly you can walk up to cashier to order. My go to is their jasmine milk tea 25% sweet. Just enough sweetness mixed with the floral ness of the jasmine tea. Standard non dairy creamer and handmade boba. (This is what they're known for) Strawberry matcha, made with fresh strawberries 25% sweet. For those who don't like sweet I suggest 0%. Almond tea also highly recommend if you're feeling for that almond black tea. Has a good amount of almond balanced with their tea. 10/10 highly recommend for fresh fruit teas and quality milk teas also. read more

Finally! Boba west of Sunset Blvd! Although it's a brand new boba shop, bobaville has another location in Daly City that is highly reviewed. The space is small, but easy to order and wait outside. Victor the owner was super nice, and he grew up in the neighborhood! I ordered the Taro smoothie since it was later in the day and can't handle caffeine late. It was creamy and delicious, and I was able to add oat milk. Also the boba is handmade on-site! It's a lighter color than I am used to but still good. Definitely check out this spot if you're on the western edge of the City. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon, we ordered online but made a blunder and had ordered to the location in Daly City. The workers were really nice and offered to help us cancel the order there and to reorder and make for us here. We got the taro with milk, passion fruit matcha latte with boba, and strawberry green tea with lychee jelly. Taro with milk: relatively strong taro flavor, not that sweet 7/10 Passion fruit matcha latte: passion fruit is really strong, covers the match flavor a bit but still pretty good. After a couple sips, the match flavor starts coming through. The boba is nice and chewy 8/10 Strawberry green tea: a bit too sweet but good thing the tea is strong and comes through the sweetness 6.5/10 read more
