    Size of a large drink
    Aude O.

    So I was feeling a boba drink and found this place open near my house. I ordered my drink (guava tea with strawberry popping pearls). Service was fine. No one was at the front when I walked in, and the guy in front of me waited a while for his popcorn chicken. So once I got up and ordered I sat down and waited about 5 minutes for my drink. It was brought up to the front but not announced so I had to go up and ask if that drink was mine. You can see the size of the drink. This is their large (a reg at other places I've been). You can see it isn't even the size of a normal boba straw. A large is only 50¢ more than their regular. As for the drink itself, it was mid honestly. I've had better and I've had worse. If you are shopping nearby this isn't a bad choice. But I would not go out of my way to come here. Their hours are nice as well.

    After letting my thoughts of Bubble Cups steep, Im ready for my review! This review might be biased because I actually won a toy from their claw machine in the back--something that has never happened to me before. I'm basically a claw machine legend now, so brew that into your thoughts as you read on... Bubble Cups was a boba-licious find for me. For years, I've been on a quest for the perfect boba spot, but all I found were places that were just... meh-verage. You know, the kind of boba that makes you go, "Eh, it's tapioca, I guess." But then, like a tea leaf prophecy, I stumbled upon Bubble Cups! I walked in, and the first thing I noticed was the game corner. It was calling to me like a siren song, but I had to boba-line it to the counter first. The cashier was as sweet as honey boba and super helpful--no bitter attitudes here! I can't remember how long the wait was because I got lost in the games. But before I knew it, my drinks were ready, and I was walking out with my boba and a prize like I had just won the boba lottery. If you are in the area and want some tasty boba, check out Bubble Cups!

    SO glad we tried this spot out! My kids and I have been on the hunt for Almond milk tea and this place cured our craving as it hit the spot and was def YUMMERZ!! Cute shop with great music and a fun lil claw machine which my daughter did one a lil dragon and free old skool arcade machine that my son was playing on also there are few card games avail for peeps to play and photog spot for all your selfies Friendly & fast service, this will def be one of spots we will be frequenting!!

    closing :(

    I can't believe my favorite boba place is closing! I love going here for many years. I'll be sure to be there on christmas! Got to support my favorite place :(

    The boba here is so good! I come here at least twice a week **

    I love this place its my favorite boba place ever! Best boba you will ever find in arizona!!!

    Let me start by saying the people who waited on us were so very pleasant and nice. The milk tea with boba is pretty solid. It's fairly sweet with a nice chew. Did I mention the people working here are very sweet? That's why the next part is sad to have to write The Taiyaki (fish cones, for the ign'ant) was kind of a let down. They're more like pancakes than waffles. Remember that Office episode where the Michael Scott Paper Company had their rectangle pancake breakfast to solicit new clients? Even Creed didn't want them... well these aren't that bad, but they're not as good as the fish waffle cones at Snowtime. And mine came out ten minutes after my wife's did. The plus is that they use scoops vs soft serve. The people are great, the boba is good, but I'm going to have to pass on the Taiyaki

    Mango tea and taro slush
    Danielle R.

    This boba shop has some diverse flavor offerings and toppings. Any place that has the sea salt cheese foam gets extra credit from me :). I ended up going with the mango fresh tea with cheese foam and boba. I also got a taro slush with boba. Both drinks tasted great and the taro was one of the better versions we've had in terms of not being too sweet. I liked their cup sizes and the cute designs on the lids. I don't live near this location but if I were in the area again, I'd stop by for sure.

    Is really cute place the boba is good love it I had only boba there not anything else but overall good place

    Ice Cream Cup
    Sarah E.

    This is a tough one because the ice cream fish cup was pretty tasty but it took like half an hour. When we ordered the cashier told us she didn't know if they could make it because the owner was the only one who knew how. Luckily the owner walked in and said she could make it but it would take 25 minutes. I wish that they'd had the matcha ice cream listed on the menu but they only had two of the four flavors and they weren't soft serve. Like I said, not bad but not perfect.

    I LOVEEEE coming here my families been coming here for a few years and I'm so obsessed with everything they have. 10/10 but just came to comment bc i heard a lady asking questions being a bit rude to staff than took photos so if there's any newer review the staff was being polite and nice answering her questions no attitude or anything they're super pretty and kind.

    Inside hangout area

    Hands down the best boba in the Phoenix/Glendale area. Mango Rabbit can compete but not beat, but who wants to drive to Tempe! Cute little shop with games to play, and the owner and her employees are so friendly!

    Inside
    Kaylyn S.

    This tea spot is okay. The inside is clean, but felt dated and a bit cluttered (claw game machine, random tea posters, etc.). The tea and boba was about average, not the worst we'd had, but no where near the best. The young lady who assisted us was polite and helpful. There was a little trouble trying to get access to the wifi since they keep it super secret and the log-in is a bit complicated. Once we were on it didn't work very well, so we ended up leaving and going to a Starbucks.

    Overall rating: 4/5 Wait: 4/5 Arrival time: Monday 6:30pm Food: 4.5/5 Order: house special Service: na Price: 4/5 Definitely coming back I enjoyed my drink at Bubble Cups. I went there on a Monday at 6:30pm and the wait was not too long. The place was cute and colorful, with a lot of options to choose from. I ordered the house special, which was a milk tea with boba and pudding. It was delicious and refreshing, with a smooth texture and a sweet taste. The boba and pudding were soft and chewy. The price was reasonable for the size and quality. I would definitely come back to this place and try more of their drinks. However, if you are looking for a strong tea flavor, you might want to go somewhere else. Their other drinks are ok, but not as good as their house special. Their house special and taro house special are always my go-to drinks. I would give this place a 4 out of 5 stars.

The side patio was especially nice, decorated with string lights and offering outdoor games like Connect 4, which gave the space a relaxed and fun atmosphere for family or friends! We ordered a classic Thai tea with honey boba. The drink itself was prepared very quickly, which was appreciated. The tea had a balanced sweetness and creaminess that made it both flavorful and refreshing. The boba, however, was smaller than average in size, which may have affected the overall chewiness and texture. The outside was soft and sweet, while the inside had a slightly starchy texture. I'm not sure if this experience was because we came close to closing time, but that was really my only complaint. This visit, we didn't order the pho, although it seemed very popular among other customers in the shop. The aroma of the broth filled the restaurant and honestly smelled really good and tempting throughout our visit. Overall, I'd return to give the boba another try and possibly try the pho next time as well.

It was easy to order online and use my freebie, and when you order, it is ready in 10 minutes so be sure to do it at the right time. I ordered the Cocochino, a Cold Brewed Coffee/Chocolate/Vanilla/Cold Foam with boba, and extra boba for $0.99. I chose the Smoothie "smooch" size (24 oz), which is basically a blended drink. I parked near the AMC entrance and took the elevator to the second floor, and it is a kiosk on the right. I came around 11 and it wasn't busy, so I was able to pick up my drink quickly from the friendly employee. I enjoyed my drink! Def on the sweet side with all the ingredients, plus a caramel drizzle.

I'm usually just a once a year customer but I'd be interested in visiting again if I'm in the area. I recommend signing up for their rewards program to grab this worthy freebie!

I like their self-serve kiosks as I like to limit my interactions with people as much as possible. I'm not opposed to patronizing here but I would rather support my favorite boba shops in the area first. They are located in the food court. As busy as it can get, they serve up drinks in a reasonable time.

It even says tax is included in their prices, so not sure what the extra $1 was for. Drink was ready in a few minutes and I was on my way. First thing I noticed was the color: very light and white. Strange, as I expected it to be darker. Flavor wise: sweet and no tea flavor, disappointing. Tasted like a powder too. Boba balls were good; chewy and cooked nicely. That was a small redeeming factor. Overall not impressed with this spot and probably won't be back. Expensive and quality is not up to par.

We loved it so much that we order extra boba as the consistency stands out every time.

There are several seating options including regular tables, high-top tables, even a couch area for lounging, and seating outside.

Inside, they also have board games available and a claw machine, which gives the cafe a fun and cozy atmosphere whether you're studying, hanging out with friends, or just stopping by for a drink.

You definitely taste the coffee but in a good way, if you love the taste of strong coffee you'll love this. When I first came here it was around 4PM and lots of their bakery items were sold out and they were done baking for the day since they close at 6PM. So my advice is to come when they open or around noon time to get more of a selection on bakery items. I went again the next day at noon and was able to score more bakery items to try! They were not as empty as it was my first time stopping by! Woohoo! I was able to get the Jalapeño cream cheese and wow yummy!! This one sells out quickly. I also got the salted butter bread and they seem to have this one more often but it also can sell out, it's also pretty good. I was able to get my hands on the choco bun and this has like a gooey chocolate fudge inside and it's almost like a molten lava cake!! I loved it honestly. I warmed mine up in the microwave when I got home for about 5-10 seconds and it was delicious. I got the sugared cream cheese brioche and this was also pretty darn good, this seems to sell out quickly! The Garlic cheese bread is so sooo good too! My son and hubby love this one.
