The food here is amazing!! 10/10.. my friend took me here for the first time and everything is so good. The staff are so kind and everything looked well put. I'm surprised this place is niche cus it's soo great. Great pricing, nothing is too expensive but the food and drinks are soo good. I would definitely come here again, and recommend this to EVERYONE. The atmosphere here is so chill, nice music, and a great hangout spot. read more

I went here with a best friend yesterday and I LOVED IT!! The self serve boba was delicious and I love how you can really just fill up your cup with just boba if you'd really like. Free will is truly powerful. I got the hokkaido tea which I believe was a new menu item. DELICIOUS. It really wasn't too busy on a Tuesday night and the interior vibes were really cute. Elaina (sorry if I misspelled!!) helped my friend and I and was very kind overall. We were having a quick chat since there weren't any customers and she was very accommodating and gave us a few recommendations for our next visit! I'm dialing in the fruit teas next time for sure. read more

Class 302 in Downey was such a great little stop! They have great drinks and food items here like popcorn chicken, sweet potato fries, different versions of Fried Rice, and so much more. Parking: The location has a large parking lot, so finding a spot was quick and easy. Service: The team members were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Drinks: I tried the Brown Sugar Milk Tea, and it was really good! My sister usually gets the Jasmine Tea from here and says it's delicious too. I did forget to add ice to mine today silly me! Thankfully, it still tasted great. Overall: I had a great experience! I especially love being able to control how much boba goes into my drink. Sometimes I want just a little, and other times I want the cup loaded, so having that option is a major plus. I'll definitely be back! read more

ATTENTION!!! THIS CLASS 302 IN DOWNEY **IS NOT** LIKE THE CLASS 302 IN CERRITOS! There is no shaved ice, there are no waffles, and Downey is self-serve drinks while Cerritos makes the drinks for you. Their food menus differ, as well. With that being said, this Class 302 is closer to my house, so it's frequented more. I probably would have made this a 5 star review, but I haven't tried enough of their food or drinks to make a sound judgement. While I can tolerate spicy foods, in my day and age now, spicy foods aren't a good look for me sometimes. I like how I can opt out of the spice here. I've had the Pork Bone Noodle soup and the Miso Udon soup, both are delicious. They both come spicy and in different degrees of spicy, but, again, I opt out of the spice. Their popcorn chicken also comes in different degrees of spicy, and I've tried the no-spice, and 1st degree (??) level of spicy. The popcorn chicken does have a distinct flavor to it, maybe it's Chinese 5 spice (?), I'm not sure. It took some getting used to, but my twins love the popcorn chicken from here. The fried basil they add to it is a nice touch of flavor. I'd probably choose the fried pork chop over the popcorn chicken, flavor wise. The pork chop is topped with cilantro and served with their house made sweet chili sauce. I guess the secret to their self-serve drinks is to use to slushes in lieu of the ice so that your drink isn't watered down. Now, there are instructions on how to self-serve your drinks here: *Order the size of drink you'd like (small, medium, or large). *Ask for a sample cup if you're not sure what to get. *Add your boba and other fillings first (fruit, egg tart, popping boba, lychee jelly, Oreo crumbs, etc.) *Choose your drink combinations and fill your cup carefully. *If you're gonna add toppings after you fill your cup with your drink, leave some space for said topping. *If there's some overflow of your drink, you might be asked to drink some of your drink or it will be poured out into a sample cup. Your drink can't seal properly if it's not flush with the top of the cup. *You might have to wait a minute for your cup to be sealed because Other Patrons. I always add one scoop of boba, and have tried the following combinations: *Coconut Slush-Ube Slush-Coconut Slush-Lychee Jelly *Coconut Slush-Pineapple Passion Slush-Lychee Jelly *Coconut Slush-Mango Berry-Pineapple Passion-Lychee Jelly *Pineapple Passion-Hisbiscus Tea *Coconut Slush-Thai Tea My twins choose a combination of the Strawberry Cream Slush, Horchata Slush, and Coconut Slush. They'll add Oreo cookie crumbles sometimes, too. I'm a fan of Jasmine Milk Tea, but when I tried it here, it wasn't Jasmine'ing like I'm used to, so I don't get it here. There's a good mix of ages/generations, families vs. couples vs. friend groups vs. solo diners, and while it can get packed it doesn't last for long. I've Shazam'd some music here so the playlists are pretty good. We're always greeted with a "Hi, Welcome!" when we walk thru the doors, so staff is pretty cool. Oh, the door can be heavy to open because of the AC on. We've always had some seats to sit on whilst waiting for our food to-go. Parking close by is a usual occurrence, but this shop is nestled in a very busy shopping/restaurant center. read more

Friendly service with a good selection of milk teas and smoothies. I enjoy that this place is different than the Irvine location, where you have to order before sitting and you don't get to make your own boba like this location. Unlimited toppings too?! Ambience is welcoming. Would come back if nearby. read more

Came to this place specifically for the self serve boba bars (only this location and Irvine have the self serve bars, not Cerritos). Overall I thought the teas were kinda ok but I love the concept of getting to customize your drink exactly how you want it. I ended up mixing the honey milk tea and jasmine milk tea together. There was also an ok amount of seating inside so my friends and I chilled there for a while read more

A couple days local means I'm back at Class 302. Absolutely a must for me to get a drink and decided to get some popcorn chicken to finish it off. Decent service today, and very busy! read more

Drinks: I got the Jasmine Milk Tea and it was sweet but really yummy. They have a ton of drink options and toppings, and it's self-serve which makes it fun to customize. They let you taste test the flavors before you decide, which is a nice touch. There's also food but I have yet to get the chance to try it. Service: The workers here are super friendly and conversational. I honestly enjoyed my time because of how chill and welcoming the staff was. They also seem to get along well with each other, which adds to the good vibe of the place. Ambiance: The shop is super clean and bright, with some seating available. It's definitely a popular spot, and it's easy to see why. Just a heads-up, Apple Maps says they close at 11pm, but they actually close at 10pm. So don't get upset with the staff for that if you come past 10pm! read more

It's rare to find a self-serve boba place nowadays, so I was looking forward to trying it! On a Saturday night, all the seating was full, but we had no issue getting around to our drinks. You pay for a certain size and are free to add anything you want (WOOO for unlimited toppings). It was such a fun experience to try all the flavors and choose from the variety of toppings. The boba was the perfect chewiness and sweetness. My only wish was that they had an option for unsweetened tea so that I could dilute some of the sweetness. Everything is pre-sweetened, and it was just a bit sweeter for my taste. This place is great if you're a fan of toppings, but not if you're looking for high-quality tea. For the reasonable price and unlimited toppings, I say Class 302 is worth a try! read more

When I arrived at this shopping center, I was planning to eat at Jersey Mike's, but my friend decided to get a boba drink, so I chose to eat at that place instead a huge mistake on my part. I ordered a beef soup and paid $17.62; the soup was absolutely terrible super salty. Anyone with kidney issues would end up straight in the hospital; it had way too much salt. Since I had already paid so much, I tried eating some of the vegetables and mixing them with the meat, avoiding the noodles (which were raw and flavorless). The broth itself was incredibly salty, so I didn't even touch it; I left it on the counter and went to the cashier to let her know the soup was far too salty. She calmly said, "I'll tell the cooks," without even apologizing or offering an alternative. In my opinion, I will never go back there, nor do I recommend eating there... be very careful. read more

The food here was surprisingly good. I really enjoyed the beef noodle soup and the taiwanese sausage. The noodles had good texture, the beef was tender, and the soup was very flavorful. I would definitely get it again. I wasn't the biggest fan of the pineapple curry fried rice. Maybe next time i'll try a different kind of fried rice. The staff was helpful and nice. I didn't get to try their drinks this visit, but I think i'll try them next time I visit read more

The best part is how many milk tea flavors and toppings you can get for the price. The popcorn chicken and noodles were also great quality and a good price to share. The service was friendly and the overall ambiance was clean. We definitely would come back! read more

They have an amazing selection milk tea, tea, and smoothies. It is cool you could create your own drink. They have sample cups for you to try before you commit to a drink. You pay for the size of the cup and add as much topping as you want in your drink. My favorite is the Jasmine milk tea and milk tea. Their drinks are on the sweeter side, I am usually a 75% sweetness or less sweet person. So I love that you could ask them to add unsweetened green tea to balance out the sweetness. Their boba is a good chewy texture, just how I like it. Their food is good too. My usual is the pineapple curry fried rice and bbq chicken. Their popcorn chicken is a great choice as a snack. read more

I ordered the beef noodle soup and I was disappointed it came out in a plastic bowl. I wanted to eat in for the restaurant experience and eating with plastic made my experience feel very cheap. The soup was way too salty. I went to a different location in the past and had a much more pleasant experience. Definitely not coming back. read more

Ok, we might just be idiots for not realizing that this is mostly a boba shop. They don't even have shaved snow - a sign near the register says that they stopped serving it in 2020, and pretty much everyone in the restaurant had boba - which we did not get. We got the popcorn chicken and fried rice combo, and the fried pork chop and house noodle soup. I asked for mild on the chicken, but it was so spicy I couldn't eat it. I actually asked them to remake it and the girl at there counter said they'd make it plain (she was nice about it). But I think they just replaced the spice with salt because it was really salty! The fried rice was greasy but reasonably tasty - it had little bits of crunchy salty pickled daikon in it, which I'd never had but was delicious! Bonus - it came with one piece of broccoli, so there was at least some veggie in my meal. Pork chop was boneless and decent. SO said the soup was not authentic. Overall, 3 stars. read more

I got the popcorn chicken, it had a weird flavor, stopped eating after 2 pieces. Not sure if it was old, too oily or just over marinated. Has filler cabbage at the bottom. Got the 302 fried rice, it was a bit plain no meat just peas, carrots, onion. Tried 2 bobas, from the self serve boba bar and self pour tea dispensers, that were decent but not worth the $6 bucks for a small. You're better off going elsewhere for a better well rounded experience. Also they have no shaved ice at this location. read more

Class 302 Cafe is located in the Promenade at Downey. This looks like a pretty busy area, but on an early weekday afternoon, there still was plenty of parking. I had this spot on my bookmarks for years, so I am glad to finally be able to stop by here. The process was a bit confusing when I first walked in, as there were no employees at the front counter - 2 of them were busy in the back cooking, eating, and talking and the other one was focused on making more boba and the trash, I guess. I did a walkthrough to look at everything, then I came back to the front counter and noticed the signages on the side wall about purchasing a cup first, then adding toppings and filling up your drink, then coming back to the front counter to get your drink sealed by an employee. I waited in line patiently, as the employees were all in the back doing various things, and the guy who was bringing out the boba and changing the trash finally came out. I noted that he was wearing the same gloves he did while taking out the trash and started to ring customers in front of me up and help seal finished boba cups wearing those same dirty gloves. I was disgusted, but since I drove a long way for this spot, I decided to stay, as he is only touching the outside of the cup anyway, and I will just wipe it down later. Anyway, I bought a cup and filled it with some ice, my favorite milk tea - jasmine milk tea, and boba. I do wished that they had a couple other toppings I liked though. I was ready to have my drink sealed and waited patiently for the employee to seal it. Overall, it was a good concept they have going on and it is one of those one time experiences at least for me, but they have to work on their cleanliness because there were 2 employees in the back cooking food for customers while eating themselves while cooking in front of it and the other employee wearing the same gloves doing everything, even when changing / touching the trash. read more

I was there on Friday, May 22nd, around 4-5 PM. The customer service was TRASH! The cashier, who I think may be related to the owners (not sure), had a bad attitude the entire time customers were ordering. When I asked for hot sauce, she tossed it with force onto the counter instead of handing it to me. I don't understand why someone would work in a customer-facing business if they can't stand serving customers. read more

Due to my deep disappointment at my last visit 6 years ago, I had not returned. But I figured 6 years is a long time, maybe things have drastically changed. I was sadly disappointed and mistaken. The fried rice was just as tasteless and salty, and the fried pork chop was just as greasy and paltry. The boba was still huge and decent. My recommendation is to skip the food and go straight to the self-assembled boba mix. read more

Absolutely love the self-service boba and spicy popcorn chicken. I love making my own drink and customizing my toppings to my preference (boba + lychee jelly). I love the guava green tea or green tea based drinks. The popcorn chicken is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Also the spicy is actually spicy! Which I love. Simple interior. Highly recommend! read more

This is my go to spot for boba in Downey. It's a win b/c I serve myself 2 spoonfuls of boba in it. I'm just bummed they got rid of the frozen taro my favorite... but all the flavors are good! I do an iced taro with boba. It's my favorite. Plsss there's no other place in the area that I can serve myself boba Is busy also serves beer and small bites. Has seating and service is always 10/10 & helpful. Date night, family outings, about anything. Love 302! They should definitely start a loyalty program because I'd have hella stamps lol read more

Located in what I think is called Downey Landing, and there's plenty of parking which is always a plus. Walking in, the vibe felt a little off. The girl at the cashier was helpful, but seemed like she might've been having an off night. Either way, I do appreciate her help. They have a ton of self serve, ready to pour flavors and smoothies, which is honestly really cool. They also offer sample cups so you can try before you commit, big win. On top of that, the toppings and add ins are self serve too, which makes the whole experience fun and customizable. The flavors were actually really good. I noticed they also serve food, so I might try that next time. But I'll definitely be back for the self-serve options alone. read more

Love the boba and the fact that you can select from many choices of toppings and tea! (Including slushies). The food is very good, but the chicken could use more flavor in my opinion. Very much recommended though. :) read more

I can say this is the first self-serve boba place that I've ever been to. If you're looking to try different flavors and toppings, this is the place to come. You pay a flat price per size and you can add the toppings and mix drinks to your heart's content (as long as they can seal the cup). From smoothies to milk teas, there is a pretty good selection of what you can get. I have been a here few times and it's one of those you just want to go to for the vibes. If you're looking for high-quality tea, this isn't the place for you. I love the idea of mixing some drinks and adding toppings based on what I'm craving at the moment. I haven't had the chance to try their foods but they have looked pretty yummy based on seeing people's order at their table. Keep in mind, that the line for the place really can get long, especially on hot summer nights. There is only one cashier that can ring you up. The same person is also grabbing the drinks to seal it up. So please be patient with the workers. I would say that this place gives you exactly as advertised! Reasonably priced drinks and toppings? Hell yea! read more

If Yogurtland, any boba tea place, and insert favorite coffee shop here had a baby, it would be called Class 302. Pick your cup size, pay, create your own concoction of tea, coffee, boba fixings/toopings, fruit blended something, give it back to the cashier and they'll seal it up. Grab a straw and enjoy. Ask for sample cups if you're like me and can't make decisions. 3 stars due to the nature of cleanliness. I know people act like animals when they serve themselves. read more

This place is amazing! I came in not knowing what to expect, I saw the word boba on the windows and thought I'd try it out. The person ringing up everything did not greet anyone as they walked in and did not explain how things worked here. Another patron saw that I was lost and told me what to do. This place is basically a Yogurtland but for boba. You purchase your cup and fill it with choices of drinks that were lined up, there were even smoothie blends. Then you walk over to the toppings bar to top it off, then throw in your boba. Once finished, you walk back to the person who rang you up to seal the cup for you. Again, this lady was not personable. She just put the top on and pushed the cup toward me and walked away. I also ordered salmon fried rice which was not all that good. See the picture and make your own opinion. It lacked flavor and had way too many peas and carrots for my liking. The drink I chose was taro milk tea. I added taro jelly and of course boba! I'd come back again and try another food dish. I'll definitely be back for the taro milk tea with boba! read more

I really enjoy coming here for DIY boba. They offer a pretty good variety of drinks although if you're looking for fancy or craft boba, it wont be here. Their toppings selections are also really good, boba has been really chewy and fresh everytime I've been here. The staff is nice and friendly. The store is clean with plenty of seating and parking. They also offer food with is ok but if youre out for a quick bite, worth a try (not amazing but not terrible). read more

I have not been to Class 302 for a very long time. This is my first time at this location and parking was easy to find. I love the self serve boba station they got here. The drink was good and you can sample before deciding which one you will like to get. I also got a meal combo popcorn chicken and rice with meat sauce. I am giving a 3 stars because the food was just okay. I thought the rice with meat sauce would have more sauce but it turns out to be a little too dry. I got the popcorn chicken in mild but I thought it was too spicy for me. Will come back again for the boba. The place looks clean and has seating inside. read more

It was a neat experience to make your own boba drink esp with so many types of flavors and toppings to choose from. You get to also sample the flavors first before committing, so that was a real bonus! The food was a good deal for $16 for app and entree, but it tasted ok. The basil fried rice left a weird taste on our tongue and made other things taste weirder. The noodles, popcorn chicken, fried pork and reg fried rice were bland, except for the Spicy Miso Udon. The school tables and chairs were sticky. The lady in front was trying to stay friendly, prob irritated bc of some misbehaved boys that was harassing her and the business. Overall, worth a try esp if you want to control the amount of toppings in your boba drink and taste it before buying. read more

i had a disappointing and uncomfortable experience at this boba shop due to the front counter employee. she has thin eyebrows and looks goth, her name is sam i believe? i asked if i could pay using change -- it was all quarters, already counted and organized beforehand, and exactly $6. She told me no, which I understood and accepted immediately. however, instead of ending the interaction there, sam continued to make repeated comments about not wanting to count the change, saying things like "respectfully, i don't want to count all that change." the conversation was unnecessarily dragged out, and her tone was loud and came across as rude and unprofessional. i understand being busy and having policies, but there was no reason to continue commenting after i had already agreed and moved on. i hope management addresses this, as customer service is just as important as the drinks. read more

OK so I've been coming here for yearssss. Their boba is one of my most favorite bobas of all time. It's sweet, brown sugary, soft and chewy and warm. You can help yourself to as much or as little as your heart desires. They have multiple toppings so you can dress your choice of drink up your way! Today i also tried their food. I got the spicy garlic chicken which was crispy and juicy and delicious but not spicy at all, more sweet. Their fried rice is really good, not amazing but what you'd expect from a fried rice from a boba place. The boba is what will keep you coming back, trust me! read more

I LOVE Class 302. This location is a little random for the demographic area, but I'm SO glad it's here! Downey needed more diverse Asian food and boba spots! So this plus the 7 Leaves across the street is perfect. We came in late at night so some items weren't available, but we just wanted boba anyway. It's a BYOB (Build Your Own Boba) place, so customization is all up to you! From the toppings, milk teas, to the slushies. Love it. Lady at the front was friendly, even on a late night. With it being late and a good number of people, the counters were a bit dirty and could tell things needed to be replenished, but I didn't mind it too much. read more
