For being in Clearlake, this is pretty good. What I really love though, is the fact that they actually shake their bubble teas! That's what the "bubble" refers to! And I swear, it makes it taste better! read more

Cute bubble shop with great service and great WIFI. It's in a shopping center so it's a bit hard to find, but when you do, you gotta try the chai tea with bubbles. Yum! read more

Bubble Island - Chai Tea with bubbles :) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been here a more than a few times since it's right on my way home from work. It's a very cute hole in the wall place that looks like it's maybe run by a couple people at most. I remember playing board games here a couple years back but now it seems like most of their games are torn apart. There is a small couch area and a couple of small tables and chairs that would be perfect for reading a book or working on. But who am I kidding - the reason you come here is for the bubble tea and when it comes down to it the bubble tea is really good! My favorites are the Taro milk tea and the passion fruit tea with boba and while the taro is a tad sweeter than I would like, it definitely hits the spot on a hot summer day! And the cherry on top is the price which is great at under $4 for a milk tea with boba. My only minor complaint is that the speed of the service is incredibly variable. I've gone in there and have gotten my tea 2 minutes later. I've also gone in there and have had to wait 20 minutes for my order. I suppose that's unavoidable when there's only 2 people working there and the crowd size varies dramatically, but be warned if you're looking to go in and get something quick to go. Since it's on my way home, delicious, and a great value I will continue to keep coming back! read more

Bubble Island is a victim of itself. They have good drinks and snacks, but the service is cold and the prices are steep. It used to be more popular, but as the service went down, so did patronage. The bubble teas are great, especially the tea based ones (versus the smoothies). They also have halo halo (shaved ice and fruit) and crispy butter toast which is melt in your mouth yummy. Yet the service is always unfriendly! It's like an Asian coffee shop, yet the cashiers always seem to not want your business. Music rarely plays and the whole place feels dead. It's uncomfortable to sit in there. Too bad, could be a great little hang out spot, but the owners need to liven the place up and hire some friendlier people. read more

I've lived in the Seabrook, Clear Lake area for five years now. Bubble Tea/Tapioca Tea shops are limited in this area. This is one of my favorites when I am craving tapioca, leechy or coffee jellies. The staffs are courteous and always greet you when you come through the door. The place is small, so when they are busy it is very crowed. The seating area along the side way is very narrow, there is more more in the front seating area. The wait at times maybe a little long, what is five to minutes when you have FREE WiFi to surf the net while waiting. Or chat with friends or make new friends! read more

2 milk teas for less than 8$!?! I was in the area for vacation over thanksgiving, and I wanted some boba, came here and was greeted by a young man with a smile who didn't mind my chatting. My taro tea was sweet with a little tart and the boba was cooked perfectly soft and chewy and a little more firm in the center. The seats were comfortable. No it doesn't look the best, but it serves it's purpose very well. Vietnamese owned and operated. Chill. Cheap. Good. =) read more

I love this place and have been a customer since the mid 2000's. Every single shake I've tried has been excellent. Their service is quick, and you can even play board games while you wait! They also have snacks and small dishes. I recommend the Taro smoothie with tapioca, or the chocolate shake w/tapioca. Delicious!! read more

Love love this place! We've been coming here for almost two decades and have never had a bad experience...try the tangerine lemon green tea (no sugar) with half tapioca and half mango jelly. So yummy! (And they always recognize us...sometimes Mindy even starts my order before we hit the door!) :D read more

The one place where I go everyday! I love the taro milk tea with tapioca(addicted)! I actually discovered this place a few weeks ago and was surprised that I never saw this place before because I love bubble tea ! read more

Love their mango slushy with mango popping! Their potstickers are delicious and VERY well priced! Prices, environment and taste is unbeatable- looks like a hole in the wall- but it's really not anymore! Moved to clear lake, tried it, and got all my deer park friends driving all the way over here for their drinks! read more

Love this hidden gem!!! They make the juices, coffee and teas fresh daily. The slushes are REAL FRUIT! No skimp on quality. Wide selection of games to play. Very clean read more

It's been so long since i was here last time. But the quality has gone down to the bottom. I ordered oolong bubble tea, but the tea tasted spoiled and not fresh. I drink bubble tea all the time to know this isn't the right taste. Also it's worth noting that they use blender instead of shaker to mix the tea and powder. It's weird. I am taking my business to the King Fu Tea on the other side of Bay Area Blvd. Byebye Bubble Island. read more

This is my second favorite boba place around the area. I've only seen two people working here so the wait can get long at times. The lady at the fromt is very nice and patient with you. They have a variety of drinks so youbmay be there staring at the menu for a while. My favorite drink is their honey almond milk tea. read more

I like their variety of flavors, jellies, and bobas. My favorite is their milk fusion tea -Taro and Matcha flavored with coconut jellies and tapico pearls. I have never had a bad drink here! Then again I haven't tried the green bean flavor, haha. They have so many other great flavors as well. The service is fast and friendly! It's probably a good thing I don't live closer otherwise I would be going way too often haha. read more

Been coming here for years! They are very good. They are slow and I wish they had more healthy options. Overall good though

This is my favorite place to relax and get a good drink! I love the variety they have! read more

Bubble Island - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Absolutely love this place! I am always satisfied with my tea or coffee with tapioca. They are not stingy with it at all, they add a good amount of bubbles. My personal favorite is Caramel Mocha with Tapioca. I come at least 2 or 3 times a week. read more

I've been coming here at least once every 2 months since around 1998. . . It is the best smoothie I can get without having to drive to Chinatown. I love their milk tea, but my standby is usually a pina colada with half sugar or an avocado milkshake. They still use the same hardcore blenders they've maintained over the years that yield a nice, fine ice in your shake. Perfect for cooling off, satisfying that sweet tooth, and a wicked case of brain freeze. read more

In a pinch this place will do, but the flavors taste fake so stick to the"real fruit smoothies" or the more basic tea flavors. The quality of the bubbles is also hit or miss, sometimes I get them and they're perfect, but sometimes they are hard and flavorless and sometimes they're the right textile but obviously not cooked properly (boiled with sugar). I try to not go very often unless I really crave it because of this. read more

This is my place to go for boba drink. They make the best drinks in the area! My favorite drink is green Thai tea or wintermelon milk tea. Their slushes are also good too. Avocado is good, so is Oreo. But these are just my taste, so give it a try yourself. read more

Bubble Island has authentic-tasting milk tea at a good price. It's great if you're craving bubble tea and don't want to drive to Chinatown. Service can be slow in the evenings or when there are more than 3 customers in the shop. read more

Bubble Island, I apologize for not giving an updated review. After I left my original review, Bubble Island got new owners who actually care about the drinks and their customers. It's our favorite place now that we visit weekly or so. Keep it up :) read more

I guess Bubble Island isn't what it used to be 8 years ago when I was still in high school. This was definitely The place to hang out in Clear Lake. I'm grateful for it now because it's the only tapioca shop in the entire Clear Lake vicinity. But I feel like the sizes are reduced and the price is still high around $4/drink. Service is usually offered by high school students, but they're always fast and friendly. The drinks taste good and definitely up to par compared to any other popular tapioca house. I'm not a fan of sweet and overly priced drinks and since now, I don't even go to chill, I can only give it 3 stars. read more

Every time I go to a boba joint, I always just get a plain milk tea. That being said, I've tried a lotttttttttttt of different milk teas and the one they made here was sub-par at most. It took a longer time than normal to get my drink and I was disappointed with the end result. read more

Wow. Bubble Island is so good. I love getting the Mocha with Tapioca. Its like happiness entering your body!! They coffee is usually strong and I love that! Ive also had the Fruit Smooties which are also DAMN NEAR AWESOME!!! Can't wait to back here for my Tapioca Drink! read more

Been to this place a few times and their flavors and tapioca never disappoint. But if you want to try something different, ask for the garlic and green onion toast. It will blow your mind! read more

The menu is confusing, but once you figure out what you like its awesome! Plus, I love the name!!

I'm always on the lookout to try new bubble places that pop up in the area, but I find myself coming back to this one when I want a good drink and no surprises of whether or not I might like it. My favorite drink here is the honey almond milk tea with almond pudding, and a close second is the chocolate and coconut smoothie. My fiancé always experiments with some of the weirder drinks, and I'll usually try his too. I have never been dissapointed with a drink here or the customer service. It's true that it's not as "cutesy" or as done up as some of the newer bubble places, but this remains my go-to place when I have a craving for good bubble tea. read more

All the drinks are full of added sugar and artificial flavors. They use hardly any fresh fruit. Don't come here.

I've been going here since I was a kid and I never get tired of it! They have an amazing selection of drinks and combinations to choose from. My favorite has to be either the thai tea or the honey green milk tea with tapioca (: read more

I have had a lot of bubble tea (AKA boba tea) since getting hooked on it in Taiwan about 13 years ago. Haven't had anything else on the menu but this place has the best, most consistent quality boba I have had since Taiwan. Always just a bit chewy, but not too hard, and never slimy. Good stuff read more

Bad costumer service people are NOT polite and always say you can wait when I am in a rush

For as busy this place is and the wait their drinks are trash. The drinks taste artificial and they use powders as a replacement and don't use fresh fruit and you can tell when you drink it. The Teahouse down the street is so much better. read more

I'm from California so I'm used to really good pearl tea. This place is not good. The bubbles are all stuck together and are a bit mushy. Plus it takes forever to get your drink. read more

Love this place! It's a little hole in the wall, but really good flavors and pricing. I get the watermelon slush with no sugar and love it every time! read more

Bubble Island is the best place to get tea in the world. I like the honeydew that they have it is so great. I Love the tapioca and the jellies that they have there. I wish I could work there. read more

Today I ordered a drink that I had gotten before at many other places just fine. It was made differently and tasted terrible. I had my girlfriend taste it just to verify. I told them i didn't like it and I was told that I ordered incorrectly so I would have to pay for another drink if I wanted one so I left the drink on their counter and left. read more

The only thing I get on the menu is the Oreo Ice Cream Shake. I think it's delicious so therefore based on that one item I grant this place four stars. read more

Out of all the bubble tea places in the area, Bubble Island is my favorite in terms of customer service, how they make their teas and the price point, the ambiance, and the quality of the tapioca they use. Definitely give this place a go! read more

Good selection of drinks. The staff was very polite. If it is your first time there, let them know and they'll recommend you drinks. I wish the atmosphere was a little more cozy, but it's not unwelcoming. Overall, good bubble tea. read more
