Location is not closed! Was just closed temporarily during renovations. Anyways I use to love this place and it would be my go to for late night food in the area but since they reopened I've had nothing but bad experiences with them. The 2 stars is because I like the food. I've ordered take out many times in the past and the 2 most recent times were bad experiences. 1) They gave me food that I didn't order and 2) They said my food wasn't ready yet, took my payment and said to have a seat and wait, waited 15 minutes and asked for an update.. and it was behind the cashier the whole time. Then asked me for my payment when I already paid. Such an annoying experience and a waste of my time I don't know if they've hired new people since they renovated but although the place is nice, their close to nonexistent service is going downhill. Won't be returning anytime soon and hope they get their shit together. read more

Came here for dinner and it was really busy. Lots of people waiting in the front and we got a table for party of two. They took awhile flipping tables and trying to make us fit into one. It was a bit small to fit the hotpot and a few dishes. Food was okay but not the best. The salt and pepper chicken was good though. Overall, don't come during busy hours you definitely won't find a spot. Their service is also terrible, took awhile for an extra bowl of rice to come out. Seems like they hire any teenager here. read more

I had no idea Bubble World had a location in Surrey - then again, I think anything beyond SFU as a vast wasteland afflicted by only mega-chains serving up burgers and pasta. Anyways - this location is pretty busy - not as busy as the Kingsway location, but I guess sufficiently busy considering the lack of bubble tea options in the area. It's pretty similar to the Kingsway location - the servers are pretty aloof and it's about ~$5 for a beerstein-size glass of bubble tea. This is nice as I tend to slam down drinks (I have yet to master the concept of 'sipping') and I usually end up finishing my drink before everyone else at other bubble tea joints. The drinks at Bubble World are large enough so they don't even have to offer a size upgrade option. And honestly, everything tastes better coming out of a frosty beerstein. Anyways - I normally skip the menu and just default to a coffee & milk tea [yeng yeerng] or black sesame as the Kingsways Bubble World makes pretty solid ones. However, I found a drink on the menu that sounded so retardly stupid that it had to work: Taro & Oreo Milk Tea. A wee bit on the sweet side (should have ask that they held back on the syrup) - but having small Oreo chunks in my taro milk tea was surprisingly good. And they custom made my friend's favourite that was no longer on the menu: blueberry chocolate smoothie. Just for the location and the inventive flavour pairings - A-OK in my book. read more

Bubble World - Taro & Oreo bubble tea - who knew it would work? - Taiwanese Near Me - Surrey, British Columbia

Came in on a slow weeknight, ordered, food came in timely, portions were alright given the inexpensive prices, only dissatisfaction was I couldn't add more noodles to my beef noodle order even at an extra charge which frazzled me. Service was okay, Server "Newbie" didn't even add our additional orders we placed after we cleared the entrees. Had to ask another server. read more

This is a spot you go to hang out with your friends late night in Surrey. I always get their milky strawberry slush with no pearls. Salty peppery nuggets are a must. The service is whatever you'll definitely need to be waving your hand in the air for some time for attention. But these places you tend to come just for the food not the service. read more

Zero Star. They shouldn't use those TV (showing food menu) since majority of those food/drink/desserts are not available in there location anyway. Terrible customer service. Always in a rush. And staff seems like they are not interested to help you. read more

Usually not my first choice, but this is just one of the few restaurants open in Surrey past 11pm. So it's usually busy on the weekend and on late nights, but service is usually quick, so waiting long is not really an issue. Portions are satisfyingly large, but bubble tea is just adequate- unless you're getting a fresh fruit bubble tea, most of the flavours are just too sweet and overly food-coloured. However, if you like deep fried food, their snacks and some of their combos or "chef's specials" are adequate... It's more of a place to go to transition to sobriety if anything. read more

I actually prefer this Bubble World to the one in Burnaby. I've had the exact same food at the Burnaby location and this location, and this one is a lot tastier, and the portion sizes are larger! The fish fillet combo is my go to! It comes with 3 HUGEE pieces of fish fillet! The batter is crispy, fragrant and super yummy! The tartar sauce that is comes with is seriously addicting! Their Taiwanese salt peppery chicken isn't bad. The batter is well seasoned but the interior is rather dry. It's not as good as Pearl Castle's. read more

Being from Southern California I had to see what boba is like up here. That's right I said boba, you guys call it bubble tea or whatever. Already it was like an awkward experience, but I shrugged it off pushed on and ordered what I would normally get back home. I personally got almond with pudding, my cousins got a mango slush and a standard milk tea with half milk, tapioca, and two other add ons that I can't remember. My drink wasn't necessarily bad, it was just different. The almond tastes more like the almond jelly that asian people eat that looks like pudding. The stuff that is usually eaten with fruit cocktail. So the sweetness of the drink was different from what I was expecting. Instead of something that is like a normal milk tea with possibly syrup flavoring, this tasted like something that was made from a powder. Not my cup of tea if you know what I'm saying. The mango wasn't bad either, just tasted like a different type of mango then I'm used to in my drinks. Sorta like the difference between a tommy atkins and a ataulfo. The milk tea though was something I didn't like. They liked it more bitter and less sweet. Which I found odd cause what kind of little kid doesn't like sugar? Foodwise I honestly can't remember all that I ate. I believe there was wonton soup, takoyaki, this thing that reminded me of egg roll with beef in it? And a couple other things I can't remember. Wontons were not good at all, felt that some frozen ones that I've had before were better and broth was pretty whatevs. Takoyaki could have been better, or at least the sauce. The eggroll thingie my auntie was raving about disappointed. And all the other food didn't really stand out. I also thought the prices weren't that great compared to back home in the states. Not because of the exchange rate, but basically all the food I had up here literally costed more straight up. read more

First of all cash only basis: Very rude waitresses Bathroom very filthy, Surprise Canada food and safety dept has not visited this place. Flies flying in the bathroom which door is open directly to the kitchen , read more

I've been here twice!! I'm almost indifferent. I wish they had some desserts to compliment all the other food on the menu. And they don't have vanilla milk tea.. I had hot (warm) coconut milky tea tonight and SHRIMP DUMPLINGS (apparently NEW as per indicated on the menu). drooldrooldrool. I was already full from dinner somewhere else, but shrimp dumplings at a non dim sum time..friggin awesome. Too bad it was $5 for 3 pieces...who am I kidding ..I'd probably order it again!! Wow..the shrimp dumplings were good...it took them like 15 mins + to get it to the table though (I;m more just saying than complaining). The coconut milky tea was super delish too. Last time I got something hazel-nutty and pudding..I dunno. As per a friend's choice (don't listen to friends-listen to instincts lol). Well I usually get taro when I go for BBT...so what can I say..I'm not very adventurous. I prefer stable and delicious. I also prefer quiet dim places. This place is the opposite. They need to fix the "MOCHA LATTE" typo on the menu which is supposed to read "MATCHA" and also..it should just be taken off altogether because apparently they don't sell it anymore (?!?!?) Be prepared to remind or ask waitresses for things such as plates and napkins. read more

This place is one of the best place in Guildford area coz its open till 1am which is awesome for people who needs to eat real dinner food rather than ordering from fast food joints.. If you're in sugar rush for Bubble tea, then this is the place to be, coz they serve it in a large mug or glass so you can surely enjoy all of it.. Food presentation is OK, compare to just an asian restaurant with a sloppy food arrangement.. Food taste is a hit and miss.. probably it depends on the time you're ordering definitely would advise to come in when its not busy so the cooks could really focus on what they're cooking.. peace! read more

So I love this place but there was a really bad accident, When my moms friend ordered the soup the woman almost killed her by almost spilling the soup on her :( read more

Most Bubble tea place are usually pretty good deal but this place's price it's even better than most bubble tea places. My husband was really happy with this place! My husband and I have gluten allergy but this place use potato flour to deep fried so my husband was so happy that he can eat many deep fried dish that he couldn't eat at most restaurant! read more

I came here with my girlfriend because I was in town. I love all the locations but we didn't enjoy tonight's visit. I'll start with the service. We ordered as usual at the till upon ordering, and tipped. Big mistake on my part. We sat down to a dirty table, and when we asked our server to clean it, she told us to clean it ourselves, which was odd, because we saw her clean every other table. Our buzzer rang, and we had to pick up the food ourselves. She never offered us any water, or the customary sauces that they usually provide. My girlfriend had to go up and ask for the hot sauce herself. Poor service. Now for the food part. Everything tasted as it should, but I find they are getting cheap on the togo portions. I paid nearly $11 for their fried rice, and I only get half a box. We are turned off with this location, not coming back here. read more

Cash only type of place, so be prepared to put your card away when you come in. And I think for eating in, everyone needs to spend at least like $5 or so? Not entirely sure since I haven't been there in a while. The New West location is a step up since they accept debit there as well. Since it's close to my old high school, a bunch of my friends and I used to come here to hang out and eat. Food is alright and the service can be a hit or miss. Definitely not a place known for amazing customer service, but it didn't bother us too much when we were all teenagers just hanging out after school. It's a popular enough place for sure, so it can get busy really fast. That's when service tends to go down--I know they can be short staffed sometimes so I don't blame them too much. Off times like around midmorning and after lunch slow down and it's a quieter place then. Props to the restaurant for their renovation recently. Looks like a better place than before! read more

We go there for nothing but food! Horrible service and half of them don't understand a word you are explaining or they are not willing to make any changes to your order! The most inconvenient part is they only accept cash! I don't know how many times I didn't order from them or eat in because I had no cash, but cards! Besides that, kung pao chicken and nuggets are really good! read more

I came in to order one drink to go, waited nearly THIRTY minutes for my drink. Got in my car, left, and realized they got my order wrong... You had one job read more

I got the mango slush with pearls. It was really good . Next time I won't get the pearls they were really gross and. Rubbery and you didn't get to choose flavours for the pearls. read more

Taiwanese Nuggets + Noodle Soup + Bubble Tea = Double Happiness. Been here a few times so can definitely recommend. Service: You have to be a little forward and call for them because they are so busy, but the food makes up for it. Cash only... enjoy! read more

Would definitely not recommend this place to anyone. They charge you things that came out due to the servers mistake. And when I said I didn't want to pay this because I didn't even order the Male employee said that I had to pay. So I had to pay after a long arguement. To say that this restaurant have bad service would be an understatement. The food was consistently trash too. read more

The wife and I came here on a Friday night we waited the hostess did see us as we are sitting right in front of her a group of Asians come in and she acknowledges them right away. So I guess my money is not welcome here. We got up and left the best part is because of this shit service we found Bubble 88 the store is cleaner cheaper and great value for my money. Thank you Bubble World for the shit service or else I wouldn't have found Bubble 88! :) read more

Food: So/so, small portion, huge prices. I only order bubble tea from this place. That's it. Their portions are so small, It might be better to go to other fast food restaurants. Service: It's getting worse now, I ordered sweet and sour chicken, and waited almost half and hour for it, even people who got their orders after me got their food before me. They do not let you play cards in the restaurant, for some reason, I have no idea because If they did, I would of stayed there and order more because there's nothing to do while waiting for half an hour for food and sometime bubble tea. Staff members didn't look professional enough in the restaurant business, some were wearing cutoff denim jeans and high heels? Some of them looked pretty bored or not in the mood for taking orders. Location: Lots of room to park, possibly the best location for bubble tea. - Go there if you enjoy waiting and listening to the music blasting in your ears. Order BBT and get out, They don't take credit card OR debit card. Huge shame... read more

Bad customer service. My brother and I went here to buy Bubble tea for take out. No hi/hello at the entrance. Lady server just stared at us and just waited for our orders and just waited for us to pay. Didn't talk to us at all. read more

Their bubble tea is the BEST. When I usually Oder a taro slick the chunks of ice would be so horribly blended and also super sweet but this bubble tea has small uniform pieces of ice and perfectly sweetened. If you haven't tried..... GO right now. read more

A lot of ice. I ended up with half a cup if ice with most of the pearls stuck to the bottom. The drink was tasty and the service was good.

Great food for a reasonable price. Please note that they only accept cash

Unacceptable level of service. We ordered 5 bubble teas and they got the order wrong. We asked for no ice but they put quite a bit of ice in all of them. They also gave us 4 instead of 5 orders. They refused to remake the teas even when they are the ones who made the mistake. They gave no receipt and they refuse to take credit cards. They are NOT about the customer. This is for sure. read more

Food was alight, music's kinda loud for my taste. Service was pretty quick too. Saw one of my m8's there so that was pre cool

It's the only place open past 10pm.. I always try to give it the benefit of the doubt but ugh. 2 Stars because the bubble tea is okay. Food-wise... No. I ordered fried fish. It was still raw in some parts. I felt my stomach flip. I told the waitress and she came back... Same fish just redipped in oil with less fish. I remember because I cut some filets to make sure it was cooked. It was still raw in the centre... This goes for another round and they eventually took it off my bill with a lot of attitude too. Terrible service. Bad food. Ok bubble tea. read more

Bubble tea = 8/10 Food = 7/10 Shaved ice = 1/10 (I'm not sure if you can even call it shaved ice. It's more like ice cubes lol) Customer service is horrible. Especially when ordering pick up orders over the phone. Most of the girls there have a hard time listening and understanding English over the phone and are bluntly rude. They purposely turn off their phone system at approximately 12:20am (closes at 1am) so they don't have to take any orders. read more

I can't believe the amount of times I have been to this restaurant in the past couple years. There is a reason why I do. First of all the food here is great. There is a variety of different dishes to be found here ranging from yummy fried rice all the way to tasty sandwiches. My all time favorites here are the chicken nuggets, the house special sandwich, and the shrimp dumplings. The location of the restaurant is very convient being close to the new Guildford Town Centre as well as being close to transit making it very easy to get to. I come here for a lot of many occasions. I come here a lot with friends, especially in large groups, as well coming here alone just to eat. Now this place isn't all about food of course. Their wide selection of bubble tea makes you want to try them all, which I am currently doing. From milk tea to slushes, and ice cream slushes to warm milk tea, they'll have a drink for any mood that you're in. Of course you can put pearls in them but they also have coconut jelly, grass jelly, mango jelly, rainbow jelly (one of my favorites), and even red beans. My favorite drinks are the green apple slush with rainbow jelly, honeydew slush with coconut jelly, matcha green tea slush, and the avocado milk slush. The prices here are very worth your money and I think that I am getting my money's worth here everytime I come. Although this restaurant has a lot of great food and drinks, they also have cons like any other restaurant. The service to be honest isn't always great. When the restaurant is full, usually is at night, you'll be waiting for a bit, might even have to wait outside. Once inside, they might forget about you or not check up on you but that hasn't happened in a long time. Another thing that I didn't really like is the removal of their lunch time special. What that gives you is any dish on their lunch time special menu, for example their chicken nuggets, squid legs, sandwiches, etc and you get a drink worth $4.95 for free (which is basically any kind of bubble tea they have) all for around $7! Wow that was the best thing ever. I have been to their other branches in New Westminster and Coquitlam and both places have the lunch time special so I guess it was just too popular at the guildford branch so they took it out. So now those same meals are worth around $12. I don't mind that because it does get me full but I would like that extra discount on my food whenever I can get it. Overall this place has always supplied me food when I need it and has quenched my bubble tea cravings whenever I need it. The countless times I count.here and getting to see many familiar faces from other regulars makes the atmosphere that much more lively. It's fun being duke here and I know for sure I will be going here a lot in the future! read more

We were there this week Wednesday and ordered take out around 10pm at night. That's was all we ate that night and next day. My family and I got food poisoning. We were rushed to hospital that late afternoon including my hubby that was already sick and recovering from surgery. It was the worst experience. Now I know it was late. Maybe the cooks there rushing not cooking food properly etc....like I said we have eaten there a few times. A lot of the waitresses are rude for one. But we liked some of the food. Nonetheless, we would never ever go back there again and would not recommend anyone at all. Worst experience ever. read more

Cash only! Flies everywhere in the washroom. Poor customer service. The server misheard when i said taro bubble tea and brought me a fresh tara tea. She had wrong attitude about switching it. I something on their new menu that had melted chesse. Gross! Tastes like caned tomato sause on top of rich with baked cheese. I took one bite put it to the side to take home thinking i could give it some life. The server through it out instead of packing it. Then she went and all the servers were looking at me. Never going back again read more

My favourite, go to place for bubble tea here in GuildfordThe food is also delicious and affordable for teens!

The best milk tea in town! I tried all the other locations in the lower mainland, and they seem to taste slightly different from each other. Watermelon juice is a must have in summer time, another favs are salty peppery chicken and condensed milk toast (L). Prices have increased over the years but still reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

First off the washrooms are nasty. If the washrooms are not even clean, then that tells me a lot about the hygiene of the restaurant. This is more of a student hang-out place. Service is fast and efficient but that's about it. As for the food, I would rate it 3/5. Not bad but not great. Did not try their bubble tea, but it seemed quite popular looking at the other tables orders. read more

The food was alright waiter doesn't properly listen to our order and double charged my friend. Overall poor service. Served cold rice and found a hair in our food. They replaced it but I guess we ended up paying for it anyways. read more

It might have been an extremely busy night I was there for but the pot stickers, soup, and entrees were all mediocre at best. On the plus side the service is friendly and the bubble tea is good, so drop by for a tapioca fix but maybe get it to go. read more

Since I'm from California, I might be a little biased? Or maybe not, but I didn't really think Bubble World was great. It was good enough to fulfill a craving though. Haven't been in Canada for a week yet, but I've tried the Green Tea Matcha, Passion Fruit Green Tea with boba, Peach Green Tea, Lychee Green Tea with boba and grass jelly, and Earl Grey Milk Tea with red bean. -The green tea's were ok, I liked the Lychee one the most because it wasn't too sweet or dense compared to the Passion Fruit or Peach...it straight up tasted like syrup! It didn't really taste like tea at all. It was so weird... -The Green Tea Matcha slush was ok too. I thought it was an ice cream series? Shouldn't it tate somewhat milky with a good amount of Matcha? It tasted like powder more than anything else. -The Earl Grey milk tea was pretty good, but the red bean? It really is JUST RED BEANS! I don't know about you, but when you drink or eat something sweet, wouldn't you expect it to be the dessert red bean, instead of regular red bean? I also asked if they had egg pudding, but the waitress just looked at me like I was stupid...so I guess they don't have it! Overall, my experience was all right. I would come back, but just because it's convenient. read more
