I honestly love this place, obsessed with the concept! My teenage daughter is definitely an art girlie, so I knew that this was somewhere she needed to experience for sure. Best of both worlds, though, because my one year-old also loved running around this entire place and everyone working there was just so kind and friendly and welcoming. I've gone back a few times now and the drink menu never disappoints. I love the fact that I can have a Boba tea as well as sitting down and playing board games and doing arts and crafts with both my girls. 10 out of 10! Also, they sell from small local artist, businesses, and of course you know I always love a good K-pop merch stand. Definitely check them out if you get the chance in are around! read more

Been here a few times now since way back in 2018. It's probably the best and surely one of the first boba spots in the Nashville area. A consistent winner. This time I got something off the seasonal menu: sugar cookie milk tea. Brother: the okinawa is pretty good" read more

This is such a fun place! They have such a massive selection of boba to choose from, which is perfect for someone like me who is a bit pickier, and they have some snacks available to order as well. I got to talk to the owner (he took my order and helped make my drink) and he was so knowledgeable and explained everything on the menu for me. Super awesome! It's also just a nice place. They have pottery that you can purchase and paint, a stage for live music, and an art gallery to loft up local artists. Super awesome, 10/10 recommend! read more

The people that work here are always so kind and happy to answer any questions. I tried the matcha milk tea with 50 percent sweetness and it was DELISH. The matcha was mixed thoroughly - all ingredients were so balanced. I had the Thai tea yesterday and it wasn't bad but it also wasn't the best. I can't wait to come back here try more drinks read more

Crafty Boba - Dirty Matcha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Waited 40 min for our drinks after watching parties in front of us get drinks before us. Disappointing service.

This is my go to for boba. I love the Okinawa milk tea as its slightly sweet already and has a gentle brown sugar undertone. Definitely order this at 25% sweet as it will already be sweet enough and anymore than that would just be diabolical in my opinion. Traditional milk tea uses a non-diary creamer powder, so that also adds to the sweetness and has a beautiful milky flavor. (Again, 25% sweet is enough) The tapioca pearls had great texture and the portion size was large and perfect. About $6 a cup....keep this in mind as this plus your daily coffee order may add up if done together. You pay and manually enter your order on the tablet near the front register. Happy boba'ing! read more

Crafty Boba - Okinawa Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Visited May 24, 2023. Yin Yang Tea has two locations. One in Germantown and one on White Bridge Pike. The current reviewed is for White Bridge Pike. This tea shop is fast-casual, self ordered, & cashless. They have a decent variety of drinks (photo of menu attached) which can be ordered at one of two kiosks. There was a lack of face to face customer service during this visit. The employees were behind a curtain during our visit and came out when drinks were done. I do believe we were greeted but it was hardly noticed by my husband because it was said behind the curtain and was very low. The location is very close to Nashville State Community College NSCC so I can imagine it being busy during the school semester like when it was previously 'Royal Boba'. Currently this shop only has tea, but I'm hoping in the future they will introduce snacks items. I do not have any suggestions yet, I still haven't found my go to drink here. My family loves their teas but I find the sweetness level to be inconsistent. Flavor is there just too sweet for me. Pricing starts at $5.5 and increases depending on your milk and topping choices. Ambiance is casual with playful decor. It's a great location for teens and college students. They have games for customers to play during your visit. Drinks were made under 10 minutes. Service was neither good or bad, but the employees seem nice. Parents with young babies, it's stroller friendly but no high chairs, boosters, or changing tables. There's one gender neutral restroom available. The parking lot is shared and on the smaller side. There's extra parking behind the building if needed. Overall it was okay! I prefer the Germantown location better to be honest. I love bubble tea & always at one or the other with my family so hopefully I'll find my drink soon! read more

Crafty Boba - Strawberry Fruit Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Came to this specific Yin Yang Tea a couple of months ago, and it was calm/empty inside. It was cutely designed in the store, and the cashier/worker came out and acknowledged my brothers and I as soon as we walked into the store. Whether it was busy or not, the prices were reasonable/fair and the staff was fast. However, the only con is that one of our orders (we got 3 of the same drinks with boba) turned out super milky and not "sweet"/ what we ordered. We knew this was clearly made wrong but we already walked outside the store and just accepted our loss since it was already late in the night. It's nicely decorated but the bathroom is also dirty/out of stock with paper towels when I used it. Maybe it was just the time when we pulled up to the store, but I just feel like it didn't have an amazing impression on any of us. Considering that we have a strong appreciation for boba! read more

Best place in Nashville for Boba. From Southern California where top tier boba is on every corner. Most Boba places in Nashville are very underwhelming but this place is solid and tasty everytime. read more

Yin yang is hands down the best boba in Nashville! The texture of their boba pearls are always perfect every time and they even have a little sweetness to them which i really. Sometimes i get boba from other places and they're too mushy or too hard but yin yang's are always the perfect consistency. They also have so many good flavors to choose from. They have a variety of steeped teas, milk teas, fruit teas, and even blended options. The staff is always so friendly and willing to answer any questions or give suggestions. My only issue is trying to decide on which flavor i want. read more

Just like their original location in Germantown, the new Yin Yang tea is a wonderful, highly personalized experience for those looking for local bubble tea. Just like venues in East Asia, you can customize amount of both ice and sweetness. The only slightly confusing factor is that 50% sweetness is actually 100%. There's quite a few options for toppings, from various jellies (grass, aloe, lychee, etc) to tapiocas. Whether you're a milk tea or fruit tea person, they have something for everyone. I live for the interesting specials the store does although I'm not the biggest fan of the latest mangonada (the chamoy to mango slush ration was off.) However, the store is always willing to try something new and fresh. It's concepts like these that keep boba shops alive in Nashville, after all. The staff is incredibly friendly, but most of their service is self serve / digital via tablets. It's certainly a straightforward, efficient time at Yin Yang. read more

I stopped by by Yin Yang Tea after dinner (Wednesday 5/24/23 at 7:30p). (Formerly Known As Royal Boba). The shop was pretty empty. You order everything thru a kiosks, and they will call your name when your order is ready. If you have any questions when order in regard of the flavors or topping, you can ring the bell for services. When order, you will able to customize the flavors of choice, milk option, sweetness level, ice level and topping. Their base are non dairy so perfect for vegan and lactose intolerance diet. I ordered 3 drinks and it come out fairly quick. Drinks are good and pretty consistent every time. They have sitting areas as well as board games for you to play. Definitely a nice place to hangout with friends. One thing to keep in mind is that Yin Yang Tea doesn't not take cash, only credit card payment. read more

They do not give you the option to order in person, but they still give an option to leave a tip. The screens to order from is not accessible. Mr. bubble tea is so much better. Waste of money. read more

Crafty Boba - Drink - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Their boba is always great, been to 2 locations in Nashville and both have been great. The service is always good and they are friendly everytime I've visited. This place is cashless so prepare to bring a card. The inside of both locations is comfortable and overall somewhere you can sit and converse awhile if needed. There's really no cons that I've come across yet so go, try their different flavors as they've been very good in my opinion. read more

I'm from New York where boba tea is abundant and quality is everything. The boba here is great and their emphasis on cleanliness is clearly shown. The staff here is also very observant as my girlfriend lost her wallet here and they were able to hold it until the next day. Thank you Yin Yang Tea! Next time I'm in Tennessee, I'll be sure to stop by! read more

Crafty Boba - Passion Fruit green tea with tapioca pearl - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Passionfruit boba in front and earl grey boba in back! This place is super dope and they have a ton of different bobas/ jellies you can add like grass jelly or lychee boba or fig jelly. The best part though is that you can customize all of your orders with different levels of sweetness! So it's never too sweet! Also, another cool thing is that they rotate through different cool new flavors like watermelon or passion fruit. Another cute thing is they have board games you can play too! It's a great place to hang with friends or bring your family! 10/10 would recommend:) read more

Love these guys! Staff is always friendly and drinks are always delicious. I'm honestly so glad they expanded into west Nash and I don't have to go out to their only other location in Germantown anymore haha. When you go, I highly recommend either their strawberry milk tea or the coconut milk tea: both are my favorites. read more

Crafty Boba - a cup of iced coffee on a table - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

This is hands down the best boba in Nashville! Most places cook their tapioca pearls too much, to the point where they're just mush at the bottom of the cup. This place actually keeps the pearls mildly firm, which I love! Yin Yang is also an introvert's dream: you order on kiosks (with lots of customization options!) and there are barely ever other customers in the shop with you, even during lunch. They do only take card though, so keep that in mind. Overall, if you're in Nashville and looking for good boba, this is where you need to go! Definitely one of Nashville's hidden gems (I personally recommend the lavender milk tea. It sounds strange, but trust me!) read more

I adore Yin Yang Tea! I am always greeted with a smile, and the staff is cheerful and willing to answer questions. My favorite aspect besides the tea is the ordering process! Instead of ordering from a cashier, you put your order into an iPad (much like Crumble Cookie). This takes all the stress off from ordering the perfect drink with all the custom options they offer! read more

Crafty Boba - Piña colada milk tea with strawberry pure and strawberry popping boba. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

My 5 year old spilled half of his tea and they were very kind to redo it for him. And the tea is wonderful!

The tea here isn't as great as the other Yin Yang location. I ordered one drink and it took around 40 minutes for it to be ready

My favorite go to place for boba! Everything tastes great and the prices are reasonable. The staff are helpful and fast. I also like that they have tablets to order on because I'm introverted and would rather not talk to people if I can help it. Highly recommend one of the best boba places in Nashville! read more

Customer service 11/10. I'm coming from the Bay Area of CA so I've been striking out in a major way ever since I arrived in TN when it comes to boba. And oh my word I'm so stoked I finally found a place I like!!! It's still not CA boba but this is pretty stinking close and certainly waaaaay better than the other spots I've tried here! Boba actually has texture, a great chew/bite. I ordered the mango green tea and it was fabulous. read more

Poor quality of drinks. Very watery and I have been to many boba drinks in NYC, Atlanta, LA. This has got to be the worst seriously. The other local ones like SharedTea and Kung Fu tea is like 10x better than this. read more

It appears this store took over Royal Boba and moved into the suite to the left and of what used to be Royal Boba. In a city as large as Nashville, there are limited options for bubble tea. The experience from our visit was disappointing. I hope Yin Yang tea continues to improve. Cash is not accepted. They use a credit card only system where the staff are behind a curtain making the drinks, and credit card kiosks take your orders. When you enter, a door chime goes off and a staffer pops out from behind the curtain to briefly greet you. The two options offered for milk teas were 1) non-dairy powdered creamer and 2) oat milk. I opted for a steeped milk tea since I expected it to have a stronger tea flavor than a regular milk tea. I was also surprised to see that their only ice options were more, normal or zero ice. I guess I was hoping for a "less ice" option. My steeped signature milk tea was really sweet for 50%. Our other Nagasaki milk tea had zero tea flavor (it tasted like sweet water). Our other mango blend drinks were fairly sweet at 25% sugar. Our straws were much too small in diameter to suck the boba. One drinker said "I have a traffic jam in my straw." Behind me, I could hear the other drinkers struggling to suck up their jellies in their straws. I had to stop drinking because I was actually worried about choking in the car from trying to get anything up the straw. To assist my fellow drinker, I tried to squeeze his cup straw to move the boba and the straw actually cracked because it's not the normal wide softer boba straws you typically find at bubble tea stores. Their straws are legitimate choking hazards with the drink toppings. We opted for 0% to 25% to 50% Sugar. Our 25%-50% sugar levels still came out very saccharine. Maybe our too small straws were our saving grace because it prevented us from actually consuming the rest of our too sweet drinks. read more

Wasn't bad. Like those have said, no option for "less than normal" ice. Although, clerk offered without hesitation. Not sure I like the fully automated ordering option but it wasn't busy so no complaint. Again, as others have said, boba seemed a little tough and the sugar amounts seem a bit more sweet than accustomed to. DO NOT go over 50% (default) sweet. You heard it here. Overall, would visit again. read more

I really liked the food, and the place was well kept , owners were very nice and polite. best boba in Nashville I recommend coming

If you want a refreshing boba drink this is a great place. It also has cute murals, so you can take pictures. And the drink that I got was a 9/10 would def go again! Service was fast too :) read more

My main issue with the boba here is that it's served with crushed ice that's small enough to fit inside the straw. This means that when you get toward the end of your drink, you suck up a bunch of ice along with the tapioca balls. I asked if they have any actual ice cubes, and the answer was no. I would think it would be a given that you want to serve boba with ice that won't go up the straw, but maybe I'm the only one who's bothered by this? I find it really annoying. Aside from the ice, the quality of the tea is just ok. I ordered my drink with oat milk (extra $1), but it just tasted watery, almost as if they're diluting the oat milk before serving. The boba in Nashville has been really disappointing. This place is no exception. read more

The service was great! The boba was amazing! The vibe was calming I loved it! Sadie was so nice, and it was so quick I'm definitely coming again! read more

Tried the Thai tea for my first visit. Very tasty. The store is clean and the service was efficient.

The atmosphere was ok. Store was kiosk style ordering with little interaction with staff. A staff member did come out from behind the curtain and said hi though. The Menu is very limited in comparison to other Boba Tea place, but it was still good. read more

Been living in the area for a couple of months and searching for a great boba place! So far, this is the best place. Their boba is consistent - never mushy. Had a problem with one of my drinks (too sweet for me) and they were happily to replace it with less sweetener! Really appreciate that! read more
