    Bubble Boba
    Zan L.

    A small but tasty boba shop in a sleepier part of Santa Monica. They don't have as large of a menu as Boba Time nor do they have as many tea flavors as Sunright but overall they do have some good options and also some good optional drink additions. Inside is very small and there was only one attendant working when we arrived Sunday night for a sweet treat after dinner. They don't have a parking lot but street parking is easy to find in this part of town. The menu is not very large, but everything that we ordered was made pretty quickly, and the attendant was very polite, and I feel that she was also welcoming. For my first time I chose the Brown Sugar Crème Brûlée Black Tea with boba and added egg pudding, which is one of my favorite flavor combinations. The flavors were very good, not the best I've had in town, but still really hit the spot. They only have two drink sizes available, but I wish they would offer a slightly larger size than the one that they currently offer. Overall I would recommend and I plan to try again next time I am close by.

    Small little boba shop attached to a Japanese restaurant. I haven't came for the food next door but the boba here is alright. I think it's family owned because I see the mom running back and forth sometimes. Very nice people and they are very quick which is always nice.

    I am so very excited to have found this place when I was next door having Pho! Very cute restaurants and shops popping up in this neighborhood. I have my to-go to place when I'm craving a boba! I always get the Taro. It's my favorite!

    Friends wanted boba and this was within walking distance so we stopped by. My kid wanted a drink so we got the lychee smoothie with boba. It was sweet. She liked it.

    This has been my go to boba spot when I go to work. My coworker and I hit this spot once or sometimes twice a week. It's a cute small little shop just next to a restaurant. You can order through the cashier or the tablet. I usually order with the cashier because he's super nice and accommodating. I've tried a good amount of different flavors from their menu before and I haven't been disappointed yet. My usual go to is the lavender milk tea but this time I went for the Lychee Iced Tea with lychee jelly. Super good and was good balance of sweetness I would highly recommend this spot to anyone locally.

    Loved the Brown Sugar Milk Tea. I wanted it blended but the young ladies didn't feel comfortable as they didn't know the proportions. That's fair enough. So I ordered a Creme Brûlée Brown Sugar Milk Tea to go also. And if that wasn't enough, the Rose Milk Tea too. All were satisfying and refreshing, just super sweet. Boba for now!

    Only stopped by since we had dinner at Blossom Vietnamese food down the block. Not sure what's the name of this establishment but I see "Haru" all over. So the pictures made it look so good and hydrating. When I got the drink, it was not too good. The cups didn't look as cute and the drink was bland mix with lots of sugar. I'm glad I didn't add boba in there. I ordered a lychee jasmine tea and my frd ordered watermelon slush. My frd disliked it so much. Check out my pictures... shows expectation vs reality. Lol!

    So delicious that I already finished all.

    I love this spot! They have so many great flavors of boba slushies, teas and mills. Today I had the two choices of strawberry and pineapple. So delicious that I forgot to post. They use to have very yummy ice cream but no longer there. It's a very hip spot for the teenagers.

    Brown Sugar Milk Tea with boba
    Sophia T.

    Good boba, great ordering experience (cashier or tablet options), and so many different kinds of drinks to choose from! I was so happy to see that they had brown sugar options. Brown sugar boba drinks are my favorite, especially when they have the brown sugar syrup in the drink. It adds an extra deliciousness. The drink was super tasty, but the boba was a little too firm for my liking. Still super delicious and hit the spot.

    Taro Milk Tea
    Rayonna W.

    This review is long over due, but of course, better late than never! This is my favorite boba spot! Taro milk tea w/almond milk is my go-to. The boba is too yummy, I get carried away sometimes lol. Besides having consistently delicious options, the lovely staff at this establishment are very sweet, professional & attentive. Don't hesitate! Give them a visit!

    Why did people hate so hard on this spot? It's like an asian owned little convenience store with snacks and beautiful assorted ice creams! I got the milk tea boba which was a little sweet, even with 50% sugar. But it still tasted good. I also got less boba in it. They blended my boba which I thought was interesting, gave it a frothy texture. They had some pastries as well that you could get.

    Jasmine milk tea, awful

    Boba is mediocre at best. Very mushy and cold. Poor customer service. Would not recommend.

    The boba here is fresh! Best boba I've tasted in LA. I get my milk teas without sugar and they still taste good.

Once ordered, you're allowed to sit at the Equinox lounge and they'd bring your order to your table. The menu offered probably not as plentiful as the one in WeHo, but rich enough selections to pick from including many fun smoothies! We went for their Breakfast Burrito with avocado add-ons and loved how perfectly the eggs were cooked and well-complemented by the melted cheese. Instead of regular hash-brown, they used more rosti-alike one which gave extra twist of crispy texture within the burrito. The sausages were my fave being flavorful and served in big satisfying chunks! If you're into pastries like me, definitely no skip on their Pain Suisse. Like seriously just looking at the pic almost made me drooled again, perfect lamination with delightful buttery pastry and rich stuffing. Would certainly order it again and again!

I ordered the strawberry matcha with a strawberry cream top and it was delicious and creamy. The staff who took my order and made my drink was super helpful and friendly. This cafe has a lot of seating so perfect to enjoy a snack after your workout. I'm unsure if you need a gym membership to access, but since I was attending a pop up, all they had to do was scan my ID. You have to pay for parking if you use the garage, but the front desk validates parking

    goodboybob is a delightful communal cafe tucked away in the santa monica neighborhood! the long…read moreline that extends out their door on weekends is well warranted. their coffee is well balanced and their latte art is impeccable! their breakfast burrito is as amazing as folks claimed, too! ORDER 01. brown butter latte ("BBL"): house-made caramelized butter syrup (containing REAL butter), espresso, & milk 02. gold coast: eggs, beef & potato hash, avocado, pepper jack cheese, scallions, & cilantro crema in a whole wheat wrap i was worried the burrito might be too dry on account of the whole wheat or too greasy because of the hash, but it was neither dry nor greasy! all the ingredients came together beautifully. the burrito felt healthy and satiating, enough to feed two adults! note that this item is only available at the santa monica branch! the "gold coast" is the cafe's take on the california burrito, whereas "the six" is the cafe's take on the standard american breakfast. pick the former if you want something more savory. pick the latter if you want something more sweet. in any case, the hot sauce served on the side is a must! SPACE the open floor plan allows for plenty of seating indoors and outdoors, so the atmosphere feels relaxed. there is one unisex restroom available. WI-FI stable!

The flavors sound exciting, but the cosmic cream top lacked both a prominent coffee and ube flavor despite the color, the matcha was quite milky, and the new moon latte did not taste of sesame. It was visibly busy when I visited, but the drinks came out reasonably quick. The cafe itself is quite hidden from the street, tucked away behind what looks like a business complex. The environment is cute, with both indoor and outdoor seating, and there is only street parking.

    This is one of my favorite Boba tea shops in Los Angeles. One small snafu on the most recent visit…read more- I ordered online and waited in the shop. They made the drinks but kept them behind the counter without calling the order aloud... finally went to check and found them there - so approach and ask for your drinks. Ordered the Black Sugar Assam - flavor was smooth, it was surprisingly sweet but not overly so (this drink has no sugar level to adjust). Boba were cooked just right and had great chew. I ordered it with less ice as my usual. Also ordered for a friend and didn't realize her drink came without boba so be sure to double check the menu as you order so you get toppings (or not) as you wish. FYI - they have a rewards program, join earn points, and get a birthday drink (discount) too! There's a small seating area inside, quiet music playing, and people working/studying (with a sign to use your indoor voice). Vibe is quiet and chill.

    Decent boba spot if you want a more "classic" drink! They have an online ordering system where you…read morecan pre-order beforehand and pick up! It was clean inside when I went by at 8 PM, not super busy, decent amount of seating/tables. There are a bunch of board games as well so seem like a nice place to drink boba and hang out. I got the creamy jasmine -- it's essentially a jasmine milk tea. The tea flavor is okay, nothing super crazy but nice and floral. Boba has pretty good texture -- not super mushy/overly soft, decent qq.
