    Taro Blush
    Irina R.

    Anytime I'm in the area, I try to stop by this place. Their boba is some of the best in the sac area & they have a really clean seating area with lots of cute decor. I got the Taro Blush that comes with strawberry jam at the bottom and added strawberry popping boba and the mini pearls for an additional $.75 each. The staff was really patient in answering my questions and adjusting the drink as needed. The only reason I'm not giving a 5th star is because the cap of the drink leaked all over my clothes and car while drinking it (pictured) I would still come here again with lots of napkins just in case. Also I loved their gotcha machines! Very cute touch

    The place is super cute. I appreciate their seasonal decor. It feels like a new experience every time so it's never boring. Also just found out this place is dog friendly which is a plus! The employees are rather quiet and do their own thing. Would be nice if I was welcomed every now and then. Drinks are always consistent and very delicious. My favorite is the passion fruit tea with strawberry popping boba and lychee jelly.

    I've tried bubble tea from many places, but I think I finally found the one I really like--Bubble Tea University is officially my favorite! I've ordered their Mango Swirl twice already, and it's absolutely delicious. I even had one again last night because I couldn't resist. The shop itself is really nice, with clean furniture and a welcoming vibe. It's quiet and relaxing, making it a great spot to hang out with friends and family--or even a perfect place for a casual date.

    So a computer takes my order, and a computer wants a tip? You have got to be kidding me
    Rich B.

    January 2025. It's very sad nowadays, there's so many boba tea cafe nowadays, but they all run the same playbook! Step one, have a computer serve your order. Step 2, charge extra for anything additional you can think of. Step 3, minimize staff. This place is terrible, there was only 1 person working on a Sunday, someone said hi welcome in but they were behind a wall, so I was confused. If you are going to welcome me, like at least make sure I can see you. No one took my order, I ordered off a computer screen. It was SUPER confusing, there was like 20 different options for boba, and I literally just wanted normal boba, and I guess the normal boba is "pearls." But it's not like I can ask that computer screen any questions. Before I checked out, it had auto tip at 15%!! That is so ridiculous, first off the order was so confusing. You only have one person working, maybe if they took my order I would give them a tip. But PSA tips are a scam nowadays, they don't even go to the workers, the tips go to the owners too who aren't even working. And yea the boba drink when I received it was not even sealed, you have to shake your boba drink that's boba 101, and part of the drink spilled so that was not great. Terrible... I'm going to try to find a boba cafe that is not like the rest maybe one with a real human that will take your order.

    Banana smoothie, strawberry jelly popping boba.

    Just visited this today, I've never had boba before so I asked a clarifying question and the staff was really rude, I also heard them laughing after :( I stood over by the counter while waiting for my drink and she snapped at me asking what I was waiting for. There were 2 young girls one that was pretty (the nice one) and one that was pretty rough (the mean one). The date is 1/11 and the time is 3:24. If the owner is reading this please check the staff list and have a conversation with her. Never is it okay to make a customer feel like they are inferior or unwanted. Pretty good banana smoothie though. And for what it's worth the place is decorated nice and love the color changing thermal straws, however, that young lady was so rude that I will not be returning.

    Love the cups!!

    Good boba spot in Roseville. Order from the kiosk. My taro was very sweet and the boba was good. They have non dairy milks. I like the cups! Cutely decorated inside!

    Do you see any sea salt cream?

    I've finally tried BU again after a long time, and they failed me again 2x. Paid for salted cream but never got it. It's not cheap neither. Not happy at all. That was the reason why I go to BU.

    My 5-year-old wanted boba and I remembered this place was in the area we were in at the time. We went in expecting to order at the counter, but we were directed to an electronic kiosk to place and pay for the order. The kiosk is not that user friendly for first timers who are not tech gurus. You kind of need to know what you want and where to look.... I ended up ordering an item that was kind of what I intended on, but it was more expensive because it was organic. The kiosk automatically adds a 20% tip for what turns out to be no service at all. You actually have to catch it and manually remove or change it, if you wish to. Having been a food server, a million years ago, I always tip for service; usually in the 25% range, but if I don't have human interaction I'm not prone to tipping. I tasted my son's brown sugar boba, it was good, but the experience and the overall vibe was not great. It's a small place with chairs that tower above the very short tables in the tiny wizard decorated sitting area. I doubt that I'll be back, but I've learned to never say never!

    Melon Blizzard  $5.95; March 2023
    Laura T.

    Ordering is only with the self serve kiosk, and card only payments. If you approach the counter the staff will direct you to the self serve kiosk. They appeared quite rude and a bit standoffish as well. Wasn't able to ask the employees about certain options for the drinks or inquire about any other aspect for ordering. The interior is very cute and clean, with plenty of seating for you to enjoy your treats inside if you desire. I ordered the Melon Blizzard which was $5.95 for only one size available. It was average! Most melon smoothies have an artificial melon flavoring but this one was quite tasted a bit watery and didn't leave that strange fake aftertaste like how some other boba places make their melon snow smoothies. Quite disappointed overall.

    Damage, unsanitary, leaky cups from Bubble University.
    Janice P.

    Your UPS (units per sale) versus your business inventory is not balancing. I was told by your night employee on 12/29/24 after 8 pm that certain items could not be made available due to products unavailable? Furthermore, faulty product or a mishandling of the product could have been avoided if employees are careful with the product. Leaking product, luckily my cup holder is plastic and removable so it was an easy clean up. But unfortunately I paid for a product that was not sanitary because it leaked out from the container and nothing was left but boba no almond milk or ice. The past employees that worked night shift before 12/29/24 were actually very wise by checking the products. You might want to install more security or do surprise visits to make sure your shortages of product are not caused by employees or their associates taking products out the back/front doors. Then perhaps you can actually see a profit in your business and take a vacation

    Thai milk tea
    Victoria T.

    First time here. Not busy when we came by on a Sunday. I ordered a Thai milk tea. There's one kiosk to order from and you can't order from the staff. They had options of organic or creamy milk, which there was no description of what it exactly was. Other milk alternatives were an additional charge and soy milk was not an option. Overall, I didn't like the Thai tea. It tasted extremely watered down. The boba wasn't great either. They seemed really flat and not the typical round shape that has bite/chew to it.

    Tornado matcha

    Don't get any new matcha drinks, they make it with water, I asked if it could be replaced with milk instead and was told no. Awful watery tornado.

    Refreshing peach oolong with boba
    Shannon C.

    Delicious boba, kids love it. Lots of specialty drinks, I still have to try them all. So far everything is hitting the spot, I can drink this all day. They have smaller boba supposedly healthier, not too hard not too soft and sweet goodness. Loving it! Recommend trying their signature brown sugar milk tea and Alice in wonderland (I was pleasantly surprised) Yum! There's also a special cup you can get when you order 3 or more toppings in a drink. I've only seen it once but I definitely want to try to and get one next time.

    Accepting cash or not?

    Yes cash is accepted but only at the front counter

    Are the cups they use re-usable (as in if you bring them back another time and get a drink similar to Starbucks re-usable cups)? Considering these cups are nicer than the norm and ideally to reduce waste, I'd hope so!

    Is this place pet-friendly inside? Is there outdoor seating available?

    Not sure about pet-friendly but there is no outside seating

    Do you offer sugar free options?

    What do I need to order to get the cute design on top? Can I request a specific design?

    Are you closed on the weekends now?

    Are you guys open right now? Phone line keeps ringing busy

    Does anyone know the store hours?

    Is this the same place as The Bomb teashop?

Also, not as strong caffeine wise. The service itself was fine. I do agree with the other reviews about the staffs attitude. The girl who took my order was kind and made our pup cup from scratch but as a whole, it feels like they took the girls who worked at Brandy Melville and placed them here instead.

It was perfectly smooth and creamy with a nice texture that was just thick enough. I could tell by the naturally light sweet taste that they use real mango to make it. They are fast with getting the drinks out, even when they got an influx of customers. The staff was a friendly younger guy who was very patient and helpful with questions about the menu.

I'll be honest, the Ethiopian I started with wasn't really showing how I expected. It felt a little muted and flat to me. But here's where it flipped, he actually checked back in, asked what I thought, and instead of brushing it off, he was like "yeah... you're right." That alone tells you a lot. He pivoted and brewed up a Mexican that absolutely slapped. Clean, expressive, way more dialed. From there we just geeked out for a bit talking single origins, roasting approaches, equipment, all of it.

I got one of their oatmeal cookies as well as their Matcha lattes. What I didn't know was that their oatmeal cookies were gluten free, and they were sourced and made locally by artisans here in Roseville. They also used quite premium-grade matcha that made it taste really good with the whole milk they mixed in eventually. The ambiance and the hospitality was one of the best out there, and I can't wait to be back the next time I'm in Sacramento!
