    Small strawberry/mangos and strawberry/banana
    Lynzi P.

    If you have been searching for the ultimate boba drink destination, bubble island is it! I highly recommend the fresh fruit smoothies with tapioca. More specifically, the strawberry mango flavor is Ah-may-zing! The flavor is so fresh and satisfying, unlike other places I've tried that just taste so artificial or just not "right". I also like the fact that they have quite a variety of flavors and options to create the perfect drink fit for what you're looking for.

    Left: strawberry rose iced tea Right: Mangonada (my fav!!)

    The drinks are always made yummy & the workers are very kind! My boyfriend and I try to stop in whenever we are in town :)

    My son and I visited here. It's new (Not sure how new), but we love bubble tea, and always down to check a new place out. It's just as the strip mall stores on the outside. In the same shopping center as Fred Meyer. These inside is nice. Very minimal. A couple tables to sit and enjoy your drink or ice cream, it looked nice and surface clean everywhere. It was easy to order, they have a great selection of flavors and sizes. Even a rewards program. We ordered brown surged milk tea w tapioca bobas, and a almond shake with tapioca boba. It was all super yummy. The shake was an actual shake consistency. Not like blended up ice. The almond wasn't weak, or too strong. The staff was a tad hard to communicate with because of the English barrier but we managed, she was very polite. It did take a bit to get our drinks, and they weren't busy. Idk, if it was just the day, or a regular thing?? Cuz, ya know. It happens. So far, I love it. Totally recommend it if you're a BoBa Lover!!

    Such a lovely little spot, love their place in Lakewood so i was super happy to see their place here in Lacey! Got a lychee fresh fruit bubble tea with rainbow jelly and a new flavor toffee mocha milkshake. Delicious! Nice and refreshing after a long work day! Orders to go and wear a mask when you enter and keep them on please!

    I finally made it to Bubble Island when they were actually open. The hours aren't posted anywhere and I believe they kind of make their own hours. I believe they've been short handed for the longest time so they're been working with what they've got. Anyway, there are two different main choices for the teas (powdered and real fruit). I opted for a strawberry powdered with mixed jellies. The cashier was friendly then disappeared behind a separator wall to blend up the teas. The waiting area is sparsely furnished and had a few activities to keep the kids busy as well as a foosball table. All the furniture has brightly colored slip covers on them. The bright colors give the shop a festive island look but a festive island feel as many of the slipcovers are not in great shape or stained with substances. The bubble tea is not the greatest nor the worst I've had. I will try the real fruit kind next time and see if my review changes. This place only serves bubble tea so if you're hungry, get food elsewhere.

    I love the strawberry guava and the black milk tea (with a hint of taro). The boba is pretty chewy and easily frozen, however they do a great job making sure it's not too sweet. Sometimes the ice cream is freezer burnt. The service there is friendly, although sometimes it's hard to communicate and I feel a little rushed. I feel welcome though! The place is a little intimidating because it's kind of run down. It looks like they were once popular and now Lacey's secret... also hours are pretty unpredictable. Other than that, the tea is good and the boba is obviously fresh and spongy. I will probably continue to go here because of convenience!

    When I first saw Bubble Island I was hyped. I thought I had found a new spot to get my bubble tea fix since moving away from Seattle. I assumed it would be good since they specialized in making it. I was wrong and it fails in comparison to Yunnies, WOW, and Gossip. Now, the first time I went ordered the matcha green tea milkshake and it was decent, but the tapioca was overcooked. Instead of being chewy and sweet the tapioca was hard and bitter. I just thought it was a fluke so I came back a week later to try again. This time I ordered an orange mango milkshake and to my dismay I had the same results. Besides, having bad tapioca they have a very limited selection of flavors options and do their no milk tea. Overall, they make a good shake. It a decent place to lounge and play board games with friends or study. Just avoid adding tapioca to your drink.

    I was intrigued by the single review (on Urbanspoon), and I am glad I tried this place! The best bubble tea I've ever had, period. Don't be fooled by the poor examples of bubble tea many restaurants out here serve, as I was. Try this place out! They have a loyalty punch card that you need to ask for if you go here regularly. One wasn't offered the first couple times we went here, which is a little irritating, but other than that I was a fan when I lived in Lacey.

    When I need ice cream, this is my joint. Tucked into a small corner of a strip mall (best food in…read moreAmerica is always in a strip mall it seems) is Sweetlee's Ice Cream shop. Taste testing is fun for the new flavors. I had two taste tests that made me change my regular, which is 2 scoop sundae with 2 of the coconut ice cream, vegan with hot fudge and PB sauce (you get two toppings with sundaes). But, the taste test won the trophy for excellence today. I forgot to photograph the sundae and the staff glady made samples to photograph. So, the photo with 2 spoons; left Apple Crisp, right is Sweet Potato ice creams. So the sundae was Sweet Potato on bottom, Apple Crisp on top with Bumble Berry (whatever berries they can source) sauce and peanuts on as my 2 toppings. The Apple Crisp was full of a crisp's goodness in the topping. Balanced with the creamy ice cream that didn't overpower the crisp feel. With toppings mostly eaten here on this top scoop-- would make an excellent one scoop sundae. But, then came the Sweet Potato. Note I really don't like Sweet Potato Casserole at Thanksgiving with the candied tubers in syrup. They're already sweet, just put mine in foil and toss on the oven somewhere you need space between things. Butter and salt and pepper. Today was different, creamy homemade light ice cream with sweet potato barely folded in so you can see the layers on your spoon, then comes nuts and mini marshmallows- just melt in your mouth good. I want this at my Thanksgiving party this year! Go to Sweetlee's, they make it all, I've included the menu. Two locations. I usually am near West Olympia so frequent there. Best friendly staff, clean, plenty of little tables to eat there. Pints and quarts to go. Homemade. What more do you need, but a bamboo spoon? Enjoy PS There is a single Pic of their Salty Caramel ice cream. Too salty for me, gentleman told me it was better inside of a Brownie Hot Fudge Sundae. I think I'd slip in coconut, cuz it tastes like supper not dessert. It's very popular, but taste test all your choices first anyways!

Maybe because I am not the biggest fan of this type of dessert, but I tried the new chocolate raspberry flavor, which was nothing special. Salted caramel was overwhelmingly sweet. I love sweet, but that flavor was too much. The milk cocoa flavor not as yummy as I thought... I loved the toppings and this is the first time that I saw a Menchie's be topped off on everything. Impressive! The service was great! Very kind-hearted staff at the front that walked through how the frozen yogurt purchase process worked. did not make me feel dumb when I asked questions. Was very patient to answer questions and clarify the discount for Veterans Day to me. I liked that there were tables in and out of the shop. Felt roomy, even in the area where you get the frozen yogurt and toppings. Pleasantly surprised! I wish that they had more activities with the Menchie's character line, like coloring pages, black/whiteboards, or games.

    Just this summer alone I've been to painted plate 3 separate times! (Parties, girls nights and…read morewhatnot) Each time something different impacted the experience in a negative way. One trip we sat by the window and we were all boiling!!! On their Facebook/IG it always says come in and enjoy A/C but the employee told us it's always super hot by the windows, so no hope of a cool environment if you're in a big party. On another visit (with my 5yr old) it took them almost 50min to bring out her Italian soda. We basically took it to go at that point. I also feel like prices have gone up a lot. The average piece is around $50 or you can paint a ceramic animal for closer to $20. Overall I know I'll be back because the employees are great and getting to paint your own pottery is fun, but I wish the building/food experience was better! Still 4 stars, and watch their social media for deals!

When it's busy, the place can get awfully squishy so I'd recommend making a reservation during weekends and holiday seasons. They also have coffee and ice cream. Regardless of the season, they still push out the finished projects in the same time so we were there on a Sunday, our items were ready for pick up the next Monday. Once your seat is reserved, you walk in and pick your items to paint and a helper will bring it to your table. The paints are on the table and you need to find the number that matches the sample pallet, which is very helpful because it shows you what the paint will look like afterwards. You can write the numbers on the paper on your table to help remember what colors you're using as a helpful tip. There's many sizes of brushes and paint pens. Afterwards add your name on the bottom and take a picture of your work, that's how you claim it.
