    Taro milk tea, 75% sweet with honey boba
    Joni J.

    Cute little boba shop, also has crepes and yummies. Good service, tasty beverages and a few Instagramable features for social media.

    Didn't expect my boba to be THIS big. Literally a bucket. Tasted okay, but I would say it was the full 100% of sweetness instead of 75% I asked for.

    In the area and behold, Chala Boba! A piggy mascot and cute pink walls, pink shimmers, and pink neon lights. I came due to the consistent positive reviews for the small boba shop and thought to try it out. I was not disappointed! The menu options were amusing and palatable to any one looking for a smoothie, slush, tea, and even dessert foods like mini pancakes, toast, and so much more. The workers were very nice and walked my boba over at the seating area which I was not expecting. I would come again to get my boba fix the next time I'm in the area! *I ordered the XL Taro Smoothie w/ boba * I oddly requested frozen mango to be puréed for my dog and it was granted. A little treat after our 99 degree walk. *They have a boba stamp card if you request one. Buy 10 and get your next free!

    I always enjoy a great boba spot. For starters they have more than a few options to satisfy your boba craving. Their Thai milk tea boba is delicious as it taste and authentic flavor will satisfy any craving. Their brown sugar boba has a sweetness and texture that you must taste and enjoy. They have other options as well but these are my usuals. They also have fruit bowls if you want to have a boba and a bow for a quick lunch, brunch or snack. Service is great as the staff is always helpful. Parking is tight as it's not a big lot and there are a few other businesses in the section. If you are unable to squeeze into one of their available spots try Sherman way or another adjacent street.

    Mango & Passion Fruit Tea - very refreshing

    Boba anyone? Seems like there is a boba shop popping up on every corner lately...the new yummy alternative to Starbucks. This particular shop is located on the North East corner of Sherman Way & Woodley Ave just across from Vallarta Market. The inside is very "pink," which I happen to love. They sell merch and also have food here. Their Boba menu is extensive which can cause some people like myself to take a few extra minutes to order...once you order they make your drinks quickly. Always tastes good and very filling. *They offer different degrees of sweetness and boba. *Small parking lot off of Sherman Way.

    I wrote a review before but it's been a while I love the milk tea and the Thai tea it's authentic tasting. But I don't like that the cup is so fat it doesn't fit in my car I can't come back for that reason I'm always on the go This is why I give it 4 stars instead of 5 5 for the flavor though but you will have to drink it there .....

    It was going to be my first time trying this place, online it stated it opened at 12 and on their door as well. I waited for 15 minutes and no one ever showed up. Other customers tried coming as well but once again the doors stayed locked. Very unprofessional and disappointing. Definitely will not try coming here again.

    Was craving mini pancakes and came across this spot on yelp and noticed they also sold sticky mango rice so we headed over. I got both mini pancakes and the mango sticky rice and my boyfriend got the crepe. It was a bit of a wait but understandable as it was made to order and there was only one person behind the counter which she was super nice. The spot is definitely really cute and I'm surprised i hadn't been here before but happy to know about it now. The pancakes were really good I got them with strawberries and whipped cream then added Nutella when I got home lol I was pretty full after so I decided to save the mango rice. Sad to say I wasn't actually able to enjoy it I believe it got hard after getting cold. I'll just have to stop by another day to try again. Overall really cute establishment, with a lot of menu options.

    Claw machine

    Nice place, tasty food and drinks, and good service. While you're waiting you can play a claw machine filled with cute toys, decorative art and fun music. Definitely go check this place out.

    Milk tea with soy
    Amanda S.

    Best. Boba. Ever. I refuse to go anywhere else. Even the food is delicious. We go enough that they know our order. 99% of the time it doesn't make it home, that's how bomb it is. Love you guys

    Oreos and cream

    Tasty boba in a quaint shop! We had a heavy dinner and want to get a treat. We haven't been to Chala before so wanted to try it! They have crepes and other sweets like mango sticky rice, but we just wanted boba tea. Same deal, select the flavor, add topping and choose your ice and sweetness. The shop is pretty well decorated we enjoyed just looking around the place. Drinks were good too and hit the spot. Parking can be a challenge. We missed the entrance the first time and needed to make a U turn. Same parking complex with some other business and at night some people loitering outside the liquor store.

    Brown Sugar Boba
    Mia R.

    This is it! The Boba spot I have dubbed the best in the valley. I came across Chala during a Yelp event, and I am so happy I was turned on to this place. It checks all the boxes! Great service Delicious Boba Delicious Milk Tea (tastes more than just milk which is a major boba place offense, and happens quite often) They let you choose your sweetness level from regular all the way down to no sugar. I LOVE that. 2 sizes, large & Extra Large ($4.50 & $5.50) Brown Sugar Milk Tea & Taro Milk Teas are my favorite. They give you such a generous amount of boba that you get a great boba ball fix with every sip. If I need a sweet fix, this is where I come. I drive 20mins for Chala so that definetly says alot, especially with these gas prices lol. They also offer Delicious Crepes and mini pancakes! Cute interior with plants and neon signs, tucked into a veryyyy unassuming Plaza. Next door to a 711, minimal parking in a tight lot but don't let that keep you away from Chala Boba. 10/10 I have found my Boba go to spot

    Pina Colada
    Harmony L.

    The exterior of Chala Boba doesn't do it any justice, sadly. The inside is so cute that you immediately forget the tagging on the outside. I came here around 12pm on Sunday and there was some parking spots in this plaza, tiny spots. The lady who was working was so friendly! I ventured out and got the Piña Colada Smoothie and the presentation was 10/10. At the top of the drink there was a pineapple ring so the straw can go straight in the middle and topped with coconut flakes :) mm mmmm It surprisingly wasn't overly sweet and the boba was perfect; still a bit warm and chewy. I definitely want to try my go to drinks such as the Taro Milk Tea and their crepes looked DELICIOUS.

    Crepes 10/10

    See all

Being a huge matcha fan, I was all set to order one, but then I spotted a unique drink on the menu called "Fluffy Hojicha." I got curious and asked a staff member what hijocha was. They told me it has a distinct roasted flavor, which really intrigued me. Not knowing what to expect from a roasted tea, I decided to give it a try. The wait for my sister's drink, along with a crème brûlée donut and a strawberry donut, was just a quick 3-5 minutes. The first sip of the Hojicha caught me off guard; it wasn't my favorite right away. But with each sip, I started to appreciate and eventually really enjoy the unique roasted flavor of the tea. The crème brûlée donut was a lovely addition - just the right amount of sweetness without being too much. ELNO is located in a building with other small vendors, and there's a seating area that fits only two to three people. I found parking easily since I went on a weekday around 4 PM. My sister mentioned that on weekends, parking is a real hassle. It's definitely worth stopping by if you're in the neighborhood.
