I've been to a lot of boba joints before. This one is a great one. The location is in downtown Whittier with street parking (if you can find some). It has a large variety of choices of drinks from teas, and slushies. The also have macroons and Ice cream sandwich maroons there if you would like some sweets. They also have a large selection of add in', everything from boba, aloe, pudding etc. The place is very welcoming with plenty of seating and lots of board games for you to pass time. The staff is very nice. They are also dog friendly as I took my pup there after the dognpark.. They just ask that you clean up after them if they make any mess (kinda common sense there :) The tea I got, the mango green tea was a little on the sweet side but it was refreshing and delicious. Over all, I would highly recommend it. read more

Chillin' - Blueberry yogurt - Bubble Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

We stopped by for a quick drink. Parking was relatively okay when we went. The establishment is in a closed off area for only pedestrians. The interior was pretty cool with mini arcade claw machines and merchandise for sale. The peach green tea was sweet and refreshing and the honey boba was perfectly chewy the day we visited. read more

Chillin' - Peach green tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Amazing milk tea! The boba is nice and chewy! Service is quick, easy, and friendly. Always clean but there is usually a line, this place is pretty busy. It's not super noisy inside, not much outdoor seating though. Would recommend this place to a friend 10/10. read more

One of my favorites since it opened! I usually get the Jasmine Green Tea (sweetened), Caramel Mocha Smoothie, or Lychee Green Tea with Lychee jelly (extra sweetness). They have a really nice and clean store. There are some jewelry and plushies that they sell. Their macarons are really good as well! Note: There are usually a lot of people (at least when I go) so it tends to be overwhelming with sounds. read more

A cool hangout spot in Uptown! Board games, TVs, and Music. Chillin' is located on Greenleaf, across from the movie theater. It is a perfect place to meet up with friends, go on a date, and/or study. The deals are unbeatable. Use your student ID for a discount! Drinks are good and so is the boba. Lots of tables to sit at and the staff is friendly. read more

Chillin' - Taro Smoothie with Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Everything is always on point here. Thai teas, smoothies, mochi's lol those things. Oredered 8 strawberry ones (not at once) because they're delicious. They eventually ran out or stoped serving me, but I cant wait to go back. Been coming here for a couple years and staff is always friendly. It was much nicer prior to covid.. but still a 5 star. Just nice to see the youth, playing board games, while enjoying good music. read more

Ice cream was really good, the inside is really made to chill with friends with the games. I feel like if there was a couch then I would have really been chillin lol read more

Boba comes to uptown Whittier! I'm so glad for this establishment as I would hate to make the trek to Rowland Heights or Cerritos just to get a decent boba drink. If you can't find parking on Greenleaf, there's a public parking lot behind the buildings. We came here on a weekday afternoon and there are plenty of people here doing just that- chillin'! Televisions hung from walls. Board and card games like Cards Against Humanity and Never Have I Ever are available behind the counter. There are a lot of people studying, working on laptops or just hanging out. Ordered a passion fruit green tea which had a nice mix of sugary sweetness blended with the passion fruit sourness. Also had the Earl Grey macaron and a Pistaccio macaron which were both tasty and had a nice mixture of savory and sweetness. PRO TIP: Get a free 50 cent topping with a Yelp check in! Even though there was a line for drinks and plenty of people sitting at tables, the vibe was active and lively and there was enough space for our party to sit at an unoccupied table. The wait for our drinks wasn't too bad either. So if you're ever in the mood for boba drinks, this is definitely a place to visit! read more

PARKING Street parking available and there are designated parking areas around Downtown Whittier. INTERIOR/EXTERIOR Very spacious, plenty of tables for people to stick around and chill. They have games for you to borrow and play with friends. They have a couple of claw machines (for props?) though no one seems to show any particular interests in the prizes. Seems to be very popular amongst the young high schoolers! MENU We were in the area for dinner and stopped by due to convenience and great reviews. Unfortunately, we left super disappointed! Got the Royal Milk Tea which tasted like a regular Milk Tea and even with less sugar, it was just sugar milk in a cup! The French Vanilla Milk Tea (also with less sugar) was even sweeter - so sweet that it was difficult to drink! We asked if we could add more tea to balance out the sweetness only to find out that it's actually a water based drink aka no tea added. Okay, why is it even under the milk tea section and why is it also labeled a milk tea? They kindly switched out the drink to something basic. The Roasted Oolong Tea with the minimal amount of sugar was then just too watered down. By then, we just gave up. Tossed the drink and left. Also got the Earl Grey Macaron which we were unable to swallow. The flavoring is just wrong. SERVICE I acknowledge that their service is good. The cashier is friendly and tries to help. I think it's the product (or the items we ordered) that were the problem. read more

Favorite local place for boba!!!! I get the lavender tea with EXTRA boba! Hipster place for the youngins here in uptown. My 14 year old introduced me to it. We come here 1-2 x's a week... worth the walk and the sweet treat after dinner for sure! read more

Was cruising down Greenleaf with the wife when we spotted Chillin'. With quite a bit of people inside we knew we had to check it out. Parking is hard to come by in the area sometimes, but if you keep looking at the little streets around you are bound to find a spot. Restaurant: Well not really a restaurant, but its nice inside. Plenty of seating available on long tables. There are a few of the claw games to spend some cash on as well as one of those walls with Angel Wings painted on them for you take pictures with. Spacious, noisy and board games to play. Drinks: I went with a Honey Green Tea with Boba and the wife ordered a Passionfruit Green Tea. Both we def not too sweet (as most places make them), but were not anything over the top amazing. The boba itself is pretty rad with a nice chewy and honey flavor to it. Notes: We were bummed that there were not much snacks available (i.e. popcorn chicken, etc.), but maybe down the line it will get big enough to include some of those menu items. read more

Chillinnnnn, this place is exactly what it sounds like. One of the nicest looking atmosphere for a boba tea house. Very hip but very upscale also! It's very spacious inside, plenty of tables to sit and chill. If you feel like chillin more they have board games! Wanna chill even more? They also have food and macaroons! Cashier was cool, I got a free sample of the royal milk tea and it tasted pretty good! So I got that with boba and egg pudding. Extra toppings are 50 cents. It wasn't too crazy sweet which was good. Boba was perfect. There's a top ten list of favorite drinks. I'll be back to try the other ones but for now the royal milk tea was yummy. Also ordered macaroons, not sure if they make it there but they were soft and perfectly moist. Flavor was on point. Ill have to come back to try some food on the menu! Great service and drinks were made fast. Probably the best spot for boba in Whittier for now. read more

Chillin' - Bubble Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Probably come here once a week. Definitely sign up for the rewards system. It is very easy. You decide how to use the points you earn. They also send out random deals through text like Buy One, Get One 50% off. My favorite drinks are the MANGO GREEN TEA, MATCHA, and TARO milk tea. I usually get mine 1/4 sweet. My husband loves the ROYAL milk tea. Service is usually very quick after ordering. The large upgrade comes in those hella fat cups that don't always fit in a car's cupholder so be mindful of that. The shop itself is huge. They offer cafeteria style tables along with normal ones. They also provide board games for patrons. It is very spacious and clean. A perfect place to host a board game night with friends. Parking can be tough along Greenleaf, but there are lots of options on the nearby streets or behind the shops. read more

I absolutely love the drinks here and their wide selection of foods as well! The service was great and the cashier was super friendly. I also found out that they have one of my favorite drinks (peppermint milk tea) that they were able to make but actually wasn't on the menu so I highly recommend asking for a particular drink if you see the regular tea option on their menu. This is a great spot to visit if you are in Whittier and want a quick drink or Boba! read more

This place is so good! Definitely one of the best boba places. The staff is so nice and welcoming. It was very packed when I went and the staff was very efficient and got my order out very fast. read more

Perfect study and hangout spot. This is such a great, homey place for any one to just chill, hence the cafe is appropriately named. Drinks are decently priced and if you check in you get a free topping. Whoot whoot! I'd recommend the caramel mocha ice coffee. Twas delicious. The place is hugeeee and is equipped with a lot of fun games you can play including: Scrabble Exploding Kittens Air Hockey Cards Against Humanity Joking Hazard + so many more! Certain games you'd need to exchange your ID for collateral because people wreckeddd the shit out of the non-collateral ones so it's a bit grimey. They also have a ton of wall art! Beautiful line drawings of Paris, London, and my home San Francisco. Perfect for the gram. Definitely would want to come again. read more

Love this place so much and so glad they are close to me. So far I've tried their Matcha blended smoothie, the Mango smoothie, the Taro, the Thai tea smoothie... All with boba (of course!!) and all with almond milk. Their macaroons are great too. I would list which ones I've tried but I think I would run out of space. Let's just say I think I've tried almost all of them and they are all delicious. If you love boba and macaroons you've got to try this place. read more

The best boba spot in Whittier Drinks are sweet but not too sweet It actually tastes like tea unlike other spots which taste watered down. Boba is good quality with sweet taste read more

The place is nice but the drinks were horrible. Ice cream macarons are even worse. Everything went in the trash. We were very disappointed.

Rating: 4.5 TL;DR: Great place with fun things to do but might be difficult to find unlimited parking during the daytime. A nice date or hang out spot - maybe not the best study spot. This review is based on my experience on a Friday afternoon 6:00pm. I was looking for boba and a place to get laptop work done in the area and this place seemed like one of the newer, cleaner places. As soon I arrived, I looked at the seating arrangement. Lots of big tables from 4 seaters to 10-12 seaters. Each 4 seater tables had an outlet next to them (side of the foundation poles) - so charging for laptop check. (This place is also open until 11pm so score that a nearby cafe has good seating). However, if you're looking for a place where you can study and get work done, I would say this is more on the 3/5 level as the music and vibes might be very distracting. (Which isn't negative for them, just a different vibe). People definitely come here to chill, with coin games, board games, and loud music booming overhead. If you have great focus, sure, try the place out. But if not, I recommend some earplugs. The boba costs start from $3.85 (for a regular size - see my picture) which boasts a large regular and an extremely large tube for a large. I feel like you could share the large with a friend or your SO if desired. The Boba toppings are additional $0.50 (among many other toppings) but on your first check-in, you can get a topping for free! One big caveat is that all cash purchases must be at least $5.00. I didn't have any cash on me, so I had to walk to the nearby ATM to get some cash, which was a little bit troublesome, but I wanted boba and give this place a chance. The staff is nice and the drink I got (Royal Milk Tea) was slightly on the sweet and strongly brewed side, but nonetheless, I think it was decently made. If you don't have a super sweet tooth, I would recommend it with less sugar. But Royal Milk Tea - a stronger taste than the normal milk tea boba, but good enough. The -0.5 star comes from the limited parking but that is honestly not too dependent on the store, as parking is limited for most stores in Uptown Oldtown Whittier. Street parking is limited for 2 hours from the morning hours to 6pm, but unlimited after 6pm. If it was during the morning hours, I would hesitate before coming here unless I knew that I would be here for a maximum of 2 hours. Again, not really their fault that they don't have their own lot, but parking still factors in as part of their overall score. Definitely give this place a try! A nice, new* place in the old town of Uptown Whittier. read more

Chillin' - Regular sized (quite big though) Royal Milk Tea (3.85) + Boba (0.50) Total: $4.22 - Bubble Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Ambiance, decor and cleanliness is a big plus at Chillin. Lots of seating, games and it's not excessively loud like a lot of other places. However, I think the drinks itself are just slightly better than average. Nothing extremely amazing and the snacks/desserts are minimal and don't seem to stand out enough to make me want to buy one. But if you're local or looking for a place to hang iut with friends, it's not bad. read more

I was in Whittier visiting my parents and had a craving for boba. We planned on getting some in LA on the way home, but I did a search and saw that this place as very well reviewed. I told my wife, "it's well reviewed, but do people living in Whittier even have any idea what good boba tea is? Seems like a gamble." Well, just like when you gamble on a fart and end up shitting your pants, this gamble did not work out for me at all. I got the Royal Milk Tea with boba, and it was not good. The biggest problem is that most of the boba in my cup was pretty hard, and the remaining problem was that the liquid itself just didn't taste very good. I don't really know how to quantify it, but I'm going to quote Hitchhiker's Guide and say that what was in my cup was something that tasted "almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea." It just wasn't good. I don't know what else to say, so I'll just end it there. read more

Regular here. Wife and daughter love the royal milk tea with boba and pudding. Nice that you can request less sugar in the drinks. Hokkaido milk tea, almond milk tea, and the strawberry yogurt drink are all really good as well. Recently tried the fries and popcorn chicken. The popcorn chicken is more of a Japanese chicken karaage style than something like Popeyes or KFC, really good as well. read more
