I was pleasantly pleased to find a boba tea shop in Oak Ridge. This is my first time in Tennessee and I my hopes were not high in finding good Asian establishments. The marble mango slushie with rainbow jelly was very refreshing on a very hot July day. I try to reduce the sugar whenever I order so I asked for no sugar. The owner said I really needed more for this particular drink so I said 25%. Somehow she convinced me that I needed at least 50% sugar. The drink was good and I liked the swirl of (I'm guessing here) condensed milk? The place is very Instagrammable with cute decor. read more

Christea Boba - Marble Mango with rainbow jelly - Bubble Tea Near Me - Oak Ridge, Tennessee

Very good addition to Oak Ridge. They have made this small strip mall space into a very appealing Boba tea shop. Aesthetically nice and I like the branding with the unicorn. The owner also was very friendly. Now, for the tea, I wasn't wowed on this visit. I don't like the combination of a slushie with boba. But, I ended up with that drink. Maybe that's my mistake. I plan to go back and try other flavors to see how I like it. Just be aware that some flavors/items may not be what you expect! read more

We stopped in before dinner time to this adorably decorated space. This boba shop is in the old Sassy Pants Bakery space and is unrecognizable with the faux flower wall, neon lights, flowers, and pink as far as the eye can see. So dang cute! I ordered a Marble Strawberry drink with strawberry popping boba jellies. They provide an order number and took about 5-10 min in the kitchen to bring the drink out and call our number. I will admit that this drink was not what I expected. I thought it would be a strawberry milk tea swirled with milk foam or whipped cream. Nope. It was like a frozen strawberry slushy. It tasted a bit like a (strawberry) creamsicle. My daughter drank the majority of this drink and loved it. I, personally, would not get it again, as I am partial to milk tea at boba shops. I may try their brown sugar or coffee varieties next time I stop in. Don't forget that they also serve savory Banh mi sandwiches. Friendly service and a nice spot to meet a friend. Great IG/selfie areas, if that's your thing, too! read more

I hate to give a bad review to a small business and we had such high hopes for a decent bahn mi and an OK boba, but we paid $52 for two truly terrible sandwiches, two bobas, and a Korean corn dog that had meat inside of it smaller than a Vienna sausage and equally flavorless. The bahn mi were on old, way over-toasted buns and were nearly devoid of meat and veggies. They were nearly inedible and we in fact could not eat them all despite being hungry. The boba teas were full of ice, very basic, and my daughter's tasted of coffee. This was a very poor visit and the service was quite slow. Bummer. read more

What's better than coffee? Coffee with boba!!! I would so recommend this place!!! I wanted a treat and love boba. I'm so glad I went to this place. The person working (I think was the owner) was so sweet and friendly she helped me figure out what I wanted. She let me add stuff to what I wanted to customize it. The prices are great and the place is absolutely adorable, it's decorated so cute and my drink tasted delicious! This is my new go to place! read more

$30 for 2 sandwiches and 2 drinks and there was maybe 3 slices of thin pork between the two. I never leave reviews but made a point to at this place read more

Quick and friendly service joint with exceptionally good boba. Cute on the inside too. Haven't tried the food yet, but I am sure it will be as delicious as the bobas. read more

What a cute place!! It's pretty and pink and such a perfect spot to grab a tea with the girls or your kids. The brown sugar brulee is my jam! There are tons of options and the staff is helpful in explaining tastes and what to put in drinks. The new corn dogs then have are amazing as well. I know they are more of a big cheese stick, but the potatoes and spice on the outside are great! read more

This place does not offer Banh Mi. I went here looking for just that. They only offered Korean corn dogs and Boba. They should honestly take it out of the name. read more

The taro milk tea is SO good. I asked for 25% sweetness and it was perfect for me. The boba was sweet and fresh. Great portion size too :) The mango milk tea was refreshing and tasted great too. But taro is my favorite Great new boba place!! read more

i honestly don't even know what to say about this place. had high hopes as the reviews were nice.. not sure if the girls working were new or what was going on but the drink literally tasted like a watered version of what it's supposed to be. definitely wasn't what i was expecting what so ever. i posted a picture of the drink i ordered verses the drink i received.. there was also no seafoam/cream cheese topping.. very disappointed as it was 14$ for a watery drink read more

Eh. I have had better. I love Boba but a cup full of ice for $7 isn't my thing. It was gone in a few sips and I couldn't get the boba out since there was so much ice + it was very sticky and glued to the bottom of the cup. Tasted good just not worth the price in my (and my husband's) opinion. read more

Great boba and service. So happy to have an authentic spot here in Oak Ridge! Try the sesame coffee

I love the bubble tea and the aesthetic. I was psyched when I found out they have Door Dash. Excellent. Highly recommend.

The service was absolutely amazing the employees had great attitudes. The drinks were tasty and I will definitely be coming back often!

I was so excited to hear we were getting a boba place so close to where I live, and the quality of boba didn't dissappoint. When I ordered the marbled taro with black boba, the boba was still hot, so give it a minute to cool down, but it was definitely cooked fresh. Even my mom who had never tried any boba before enjoyed it, and Christy herself was sweet enough to let her sample some of the jellies she used in the other drinks. Not to mention the atmosphere is great, especially for such a little hole in the wall. Definitely reccomend! read more
