Brown sugar boba and HK boba
Diana C.

Pretty consistent and tasty options. They have nondairy options too which is nice, but the vibes are kinda dead in there lately. Maybe a good place to study or read quietly now vs. before. The service was fine. They made everything quickly and were polite. I think the main difference is the prices steadily rising here. Hopefully this spot hangs in there because I like their tea!

COMEBUYTEA Milk Tea w/ Boba and Neptune Milk Tea w/ Boba
Generous Y.

COMEBUYTEA is a known brand in Taiwan but not necessarily regarded as the best. That being said, the high quality is consistent with expansion in the states. It's strange that this Seattle location has a spin-off website from the California location. The menu is also more extensive, so there are differences. Drinks were also on the sweeter side. Either that or they're not great at adjusting sugar levels. Holding some reservations because of this. COMEBUYTEA holistically is better than the other highly regarded chain on the Eastside. More volume at lower prices with similar quality. I'd come here more often but go to the other spot for special occasions. The interior is nice and clean but the seats are tighter. There is a restroom with a passcode. Decent location around good food options in Cap Hill. COMEBUYTEA Milk Tea w/ Boba - 30% sugar tasted more like a 70% sweetness. As their signature, I believe it's a black tea base but the tea was light, competing with the frothy milk and sugar. Boba had a fair flavor in addition to holding a normal chew. Could be bouncier but very solid for a spot that specializes in tea and ironically, outdid the tea for me. Neptune Milk Tea w/ Boba - the Neptune is a green tea that gets additional flavor and aroma from preserved fruits. Without knowing, it's not too obvious but a few taste tests will reveal the floral green tea alongside elements of fruit flavor. Boba was again, solid, outperforming expectations compared to the tea.

Bubble milk tea with half ice and half sugar
Wen C.

Ordering here is fast and efficient with the kiosks, although flagging down someone is easy if you have questions about the menu or want to interact with someone. The counter is set up so you can watch them make your drinks with the teapresso machines. They are always sampling a drink as well from a self serve dispenser. The drinks here are great. I got the bubble milk tea with half ice and half sugar. The tea flavor was strong, and the boba was soft and chewy. Definitely coming back here again!

Modern interior with teas and brew stations on display
Janice T.

I ordered the Comeback Milk Tea (top #1) with 30% sugar and 50% ice. The interior of the shop was modern and I liked seeing the teas on display along with the brewing machines. The wait was pretty short (less than 5 minutes) and the employees were nice! The drink itself was just okay (8/10). The tea flavor was very mild and even at 30% sugar, the drink was pretty sweet. The boba was a bit tougher than I like and a little difficult to suck up. While I normally like konjac jelly, this one was a little odd- shaped like boba but there was also slivers of it. Parking in the area can be a little difficult. I don't think I would go out of my way to return here but I would want to try the oolong milk tea if I was nearby.

Just here to report a FOURTH price increase in roughly just one year. My exact drink is now $8.39.

I ordered a comebuy milk tea (comebuy is their in house flavor) with 50% ice and 50% sweetness. It tastes perfect and still cold and refreshing. The way they brew tea is very unique and the steam that comes out always reminds me of instant pot! They only take orders from the machine and the line can get pretty long. When it gets busy the 4 steam machines will start brewing non stop and it can get pretty loud so I would avoid if you are looking for a more quiet spot. The tea and service here is absolutely excellent. My only gripe is having to deal with homeless, trash and graffiti all over the front entrance which is kind of out of their control.

I really liked the interior decor t's modern and classy. The seating is also quite comfortable and makes it a suitable spot for working from a cafe. They have a self-service kiosk for ordering, which is convenient, but I can see long wait times being an issue if the people ahead take a while. When I arrived, both kiosks were in use, and I ended up waiting at least 10 minutes just to place my order. I chose one of their top five picks: the Hong Kong Milk Tea with 50% sugar, less ice, cream, and boba. Service was a bit slow; it took around 10 minutes to receive my drink. The boba itself was good chewy with a nice texture but the tea tasted quite diluted and light. The cream added extra sweetness, and in hindsight, I wish I had gone with 25% sugar or had more customization options. Overall, it didn't live up to the hype for me. I don't think I'd return.

I haven't been to cap hill in a while and I was excited to see this boba shop had finally opened! Came in around 9:30 on a Saturday. The place had quite a few people sitting there, and I was really surprised how cute and comfortable it was! You could also smell the tea and brown sugar, and the decor of tea leaves boded well for quality. I ordered a brown sugar fresh milk on a tablet. The taro swirl smoothie(?) and kefir drinks with basil seeds also looked intriguing though. My drink came out quickly. The shop also had a sample of Neptune green tea to try which was mild and lightly sweetened, and it tasted great. My drink also was delicious. Brown sugar and fresh milk were in a good ratio, and the boba was well cooked. Tried some of my other friend's drinks and we all enjoyed everything we tried. Glad to have tried another good boba place in the Seattle area!

One of my top two favorite boba spots in Washington. This place never disappoints! I always make a stop here whenever I'm in Seattle. I love how they display all the teas they use for brewing, and you can actually see the process, which adds to the experience. The space is always clean and well maintained. It's a self order setup, but the staff are helpful if you need anything. The only downside is the parking. It's pretty rough in this area, so I only come by when it's convenient. Still, it's definitely a go to boba spot when I'm nearby!

After grabbing lunch with my friends, we wanted a sweet treat afterwards. We decided to stop by ComeBuyTea since most of us had never been before. It's very brightly lit inside and had a cozy, modern vibe. It was very clean and well-kept. It's also a lot bigger inside than I expected. It was very simple and easy to get our orders placed. They had self-ordering kiosks. I ordered the ComeBuyTea Milk Tea and didn't adjust the sugar or ice level. It was a nice sweet treat! It wasn't too sweet, but for my personal preference I might adjust it a bit next time I visit.

Vic A.

Hands down the BEST BOBA in seattle! The experience is just wow! There is freshly brewed tea for you to see the process. The passion fruit yogurt is so refreshing. The mango boba waffle was crisp, boba was warm and gooey!The staff is friendly and professional and the decor is minimal and Japan inspired. There is no parking. Along the metro line. On the corner.

We were wandering around the area and wanted to get a drink nearby when my friend and I overheard some people talking about this being a really good boba place so we decided to give it a try. The ordering is pretty simple on their screens and the inside looked so modern and cool with the tea containers lining the walls. Taro Milk Tea - First, they gave a lot of toppings where the boba was filled a decent amount. It was soft, chewy and had a great texture. The taro is what stood out to me being that the strong nuttiness and vanilla flavors of the taro showed through. My friend ordered lychee oolong tea which she really enjoyed with the subtle lychee flavor that wasn't overpowered by the tea. A cool place to get boba or a sweet treat if you're shopping in the Capitol Hill area.

Roasted oolong milk tea, osmanthus oolong tea, comebuytea milk tea
Selina H.

The roasted oolong tea was so good!! It was the right amount of roasty-ness and milk tea flavor. I got 50% sugar which was the perfect amount of sweetness too. The combuytea milk tea was also really good! Pretty classic milk tea and the boba was soft and chewy. Wasn't really a fan of the osmanthus oolong tea since it was really bitter but the brown sugar konjac was pretty addicting to eat

I first tried the turon matcha which I thought was good but had a mild banana flavor. I was expecting more of a caramelized flavor but I still thought it was good. The next day, I ordered the matcha einspanner. Their housemade yoka whip was so yummy and added the perfect amount of sweetness to the matcha latte. Overall, the matcha here is smooth and both drinks weren't too sweet.

We went around 11 in the morning, and it was PACKEDDDD. The inside was completely full, and there was even a line out the door, so I honestly didn't think our group of 4 would find seating. The line moved really fast tho, and we managed to grab one of the viet style low table and chair setups that you'd typically see on the street back home, I liked it a lot. The drinks and food also came out surprisingly quickly despite how busy it was. We ordered a lot to try! Drinks: 1 phe muoi $6.75 1 matcha einspanner $8.75 1 earl grey matcha $9 1 banana pudding matcha latte $11 1 hojicha latte $6.50 Their matcha was smooth, no astringency, I wished it was more matcha taste bc it's a little light but that's just me bc I like umami matcha. Food: Phe Sliders $13 MUSTTTT GET!! My group absolutely devoured these. The rolls were soft and airy, and somehow the sliders still felt light and not too heavy. The aioli was sooooo yum we scrape every bits of it lolllll. I'd honestly come back just for this dish alone. xoi chay $15- Really good breakfast option. The sticky rice was soft and chewy, and all of the toppings came together really well. Easily my new favorite spot.
