    Okinawa Milk Tea
    Nicholas R.

    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!

    Matcha Milk Tea
    Sidra S.

    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

    Best boba in Nashville! The team is fabulous and the boba was so incredibly tasty!! Grab the strawberry popping boba tea.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Shreya R.

    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:)

    Piña colada milk tea with strawberry pure and strawberry popping boba.

    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!

    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.

    Sometimes i get boba from other places and they're too mushy or too hard but yin yang's are always the perfect consistency.

Gong Cha on 4th Ave is hands-down the best spot in the city for a high-quality tea fix. The free 1-hour parking (just scan the QR code inside) makes it incredibly convenient to drop in, even in this busy part of town. The Ultimate Snack Pairing: * Mango Green Tea with black tea: My absolute favorite--refreshing, bright, and perfectly balanced. * Crispy Bubble Waffles: These are completely addicting! Golden and crunchy on the outside, light and airy on the inside. * Beyond the Drinks: If you're hungry for more than a snack, they actually have ramen noodles (the Spicy Shin bowls are great!) and other snacks like sliders. It's the perfect combo for a casual lunch. The Vibe: The shop is clean, bright, and very family-friendly. What really sets it apart is the setup--they have game cards and board games available, making it a fantastic spot to hang out and chill with friends or the kids. Having a top-tier boba spot with a fun, social atmosphere is a total game-changer for Nashville. We'll be regulars here for sure!

For those who would like to know- hojicha is like a toastier, more caramel version of matcha. So clearly I got the hojicha latte.

The shop is also gorgeous. All of the thoughtful personal touches make this space so cozy and warm. I just want to be a cozy cat curled up in this shop, drinking delicious beverages all day.

Eat Bubbles in particular has a QR code displayed prominently at the front counter to activate parking. The menu here is a little more advanced than the typical first generation American boba shop. They offer plenty of choices and allow sweetness and ice level adjustments. One thing I found to be nonobvious - all drinks under the "Fresh Brewed Teas" menu section are milk tea. They use lactose-free milk by default, which is a huge boon to people like me with lactose intolerance! Assam Milk Tea, Large, 50% Sweet, Less Ice w/ Boba ($7) - This drink has an interesting milk tea flavor that is a bit of a departure from a standard Assam. Instead of a fruity finish, this tea has a bit of a malty overtone, more pleasingly brown and earthy. It's a very thick drink and feels more rich than what only adding milk would be able to do. I believe they brew tea each morning and then fill individual pitchers for service. 50% sweet is a bit too sweet for my tastes with the additional sugar from the boba. It's not cloying, however. The boba is overall strange and not in a good way. The pearls are very inconsistent in both size and texture. In all cases, the pearls have soft exteriors, some approaching mushy, while others are okay. The interiors range from being too hard to almost mushy. The sizing of the boba is also variable, from small pebbles, to larger spheres. The boba is marinated for a long time, however, giving a somewhat minerally or perhaps herbal quality to them. Milk Tea Rating: 4/5 Boba Rating 3/5 There aren't too many boba shops in Nashville, so while I wasn't enthralled with the drink, I think it's probably good for the area.
