I am a huge fan of boba, so I was so excited when this place opened! They have lots of options for different types of tea, but my favorite is the roasted brown sugar milk tea. If you can't have dairy, the passion fruit green tea is also delicious. The overall vibe of the place is great too, and during less busy hours it's a great place to work or invite someone for a coffee meeting.
:: Drink :: I ordered the Pearl Milk Tea and it was good. We were happy to find a place to satisfy our boba craving in Colorado. :: Service :: Customer service was good too. :: Parking :: We were able to find metered parking in front of the shop.
My friend and I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon. I was a bit overwhelmed with what to order and the gal at the counter was super nice giving me advice on her favorite fruit tea. The service was speedy and the drink good. I got the red dragon fruit tea, it was delicious, a bit on the sweet side, but still good. We sat and drank there, the pink seats were so surprisingly comfortable. There were a few people working on computers, but plenty of seating and great music. It's conveniently located next to union station. This is my favorite place to grab boba when I'm visiting the city!
I was looking for coffee and came across this spot. So cute. I ordered an Americano with steamed oat milk and peach yogurt. The coffee hit the spot. Little did I know the yogurt would come like a smoothie, yumm. It's very tasty I have to say and I like that it was prepared when I ordered it. It looked like peaches and two different kinds of yogurt were added. I am always by Union Station, so I will remember this spot. There were many other things on the menu, so I have some exploring to do. Haha
This is such a cute place for boba! There are ton of seats and they also have board games so this is place is perfect for a group outing. The boba itself is pretty good, but I would say it taste a little more mild (less flavorful) that traditional boba spots. However, I think that the service and the ambiance do make up for it though! The owner and the staff working there are the sweetest. I would say that one of the biggest cons is the parking situation - you will have to find street parking and it might be tough since it is downtown Denver.
This place was very cozy and pretty and clean inside - a nice atmosphere. The people working here were incredibly friendly and hard working. My friend Andie loved her drink - she got a boba drink. I got a tea one and it wasn't really for me - Unfortunately you could only buy that one in a large so it felt a little wasteful my friend didn't like it either. The drink wasn't cold in fact it was warm - but it apparently was supposed to be cold -so it just didn't have that refreshing taste to it and just wasn't what I was expecting. But my friends she said hers was perfect. I will still come back for sure and try something different. :)
Neighborhood boba and a great Place to enjoy your selection - whether it is a boba, a milk tea or a coffee. Broad selection with very friendly staff with great service. Plenty of games to enjoy, should you choose. Ambiance is vibrant and not too loud. We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and they were really busy. Recommend.
One of the best boba shops in Denver!! I'm visiting Denver and am familiar with Daboba since we have a few locations in SoCal. I decided to stop by the Denver location and was not disappointed! My group chatted with the owner and learned she also spent time in SoCal and is familiar with the top boba shops there. She truly knows her boba and it shows in the drinks at her Daboba. I tried the Ube Homerun which is homemade ube jam, milk, brown sugar boba, and salted buttercream on top, and let me tell you... hands down one of the best ube drinks I've ever had. The ube flavor is strong and not artificial and the salted buttercream pairs perfectly with the drink. The boba is also delicious!! Boba is chewy and sweet but not too sweet - just how I like it. The menu is fun and there's a lot of different drink options. You can also get Little Man ice cream served with boba here. Service was great and the location is convenient as it's right by Union Station. Interior is really nice and there's a lot of tables and games too. I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in Denver!
Oof.. not a huge fan of the boba drink here. Service was great but the boba was mediocre. It wasn't warm, soft and chewy like the way I like it.. and the tea flavor was lacking for me. I got the original boba milk tea and thought it was just underwhelming. Awesome location though and cool decor. They also have games in the seating area so it's a cool place to hang out. I think they also have wifi there!
Pros: Good location near Union Station Space is light and airy Fair amount of options, including ice cream Cons: The tables aren't consistently bussed Not a huge amount of non-caffeinated or smoothie options The bathroom was disgusting Pro tip: There aren't many boba places in town, so if you are craving a boba drink this is fine. The boba consistency varies from what we saw. Their brown sugar option is tasty, especially with the milk cap.
Great Japanese Oolong. The tea is so unique and unlike any regular boba shop. I highly recommend trying out classic milk tea with Japanese oolong. It's very spacious inside. There are cutie corners if you want some instagram moments. Overall a good place to hang out and get good drinks.
Fantastic place very different not your average Boba... I like the decor in here. It's kind of a hybrid between Starbucks and we work :-) so many different Boba to choose from so come already indecisive but I think you will enjoy it.
Came here after getting gyu kaku since it was nearby and we wanted to try a new boba shop out. The place is really spacious and well designed. It's brightly lit inside and seemed pretty cozy and they also offered some board games as well! The staff were super nice and helpful. They were also quick with our orders and seemed to handle it very well when the crowd came in behind us. We got a large brown sugar fresh milk and a large ube with boba as well. The total came out to about $15 with tip which is pretty standard for some boba drinks now. I did unfortunately have to dock one star though as I don't feel like either drink had much flavor to it. The brown sugar one seemed just mostly like milk. The boba was soft but I didn't get much of a brown sugar taste at anytime during the drink even after scraping it off the sides of the cup to make sure it was mixing in with the milk. Maybe I went on an off day for that specific drink? I did see a good variety of drinks on the menu though so I would recommend for anyone in the area cause there may be something else they'd like instead!
Really yummy boba! They have a lot of good flavors. One of my favorites is the matcha creme brûlée. I also love the regular milk tea with boba. Workers here are very nice and they make the drinks quickly. It's a popular spot for a reason! read more
I recommend going to this place just for the strawberry yogurt drink, I didn't take a picture of it but it was SOOO yummy. I wish they had strawberry popping pearls for it but wow that drink was so yummy. It just better than a normal strawberry smoothie/slush than other places. The milk tea that I got wasn't that good, it was on the watery side and I asked for and was charged for extra boba but it does not look like I was given extra boba at all.. So ya I highly recommend trying their yogurt drink here! Not the tea though read more

I came here for the first time because of The Rose merch event so there was a two hour wait and it was just not normal business hours. If you are interested in coming to Daboba, I highly recommend you check on their instagram to confirm if they have any events going on. I believe if you wanted a drink, you were able to walk in and bypass the line altogether. The staff is really friendly. The hot drinks were on the pricier side and the cup was smaller than at other boba shops. Maybe the downtown location factors into the price of the drinks. I suggest you order the cold drinks because that looked like you got your moneys worth. The boba was just average and didn't really stand out to me. There is street parking available but I ended up paying for parking at a nearby garage. The location and the boba being just average doesn't make it worth the drive. If you happen to be in the area, maybe make a stop and give it a try. read more

Very easy to find parking. Service was nice. Drinks were ok. Got the passion fruit green tea and the tea was strong. My partner got the red dragon... did not taste good at all.. we thought you would be able to taste a mix of dragon fruit AND mango... you can only taste a hint of dragon fruit. Other than that it tasted so bland... no tea flavor in there at all.. read more

Visited Daboba before 10am and it was very quiet and chill. It is in LoDo right across from Whole Foods. We were able to find street parking quickly and made an online order. I ordered 2 brown sugar milk teas and an avocado yogurt smoothie. Inside was so cute and picture worthy! The employees were super friendly and helpful. The milk teas were delicious and the boba was warm and chewy. The avocado yogurt smoothie was tart and not what I was expecting, but good nonetheless since I'm not huge on sweets. Price was on par with most boba joints. I would definitely visit here again! read more

This new boba place popped up downtown and I just had to try it. I saw online that they gave cute cup covers that are shaped like bears and when I ordered my drink, they did not disappoint. Before I ordered, I asked what was the most popular drinks and they said their roasted brown sugar line was the most popular followed by their fruit teas. My friend and I ended up trying a roasted brown sugar fresh milk and roasted brown sugar milk tea. As we waited for the drinks, we watched them prepare it in front of us and use a torch to roast the brown sugar on top of our drinks. The atmosphere inside is modern with a lot of tables where someone can probably sit and study. There are also games on a bookshelf so I'm sure groups can come in and enjoy boba while playing games as well. Parking was easy late on a Saturday as there was metered parking available directly on the street. Both drinks were delicious. The fresh milk version tasted a lot creamier than the milk tea, but both were super flavorful and delicious. As someone who loves anything with sugar, these drinks really hit the spot for me. This will probably be my go to boba spot when I'm in downtown Denver. read more
This is da boba place to check out! I was craving boba and this place looked like a great option since I haven't seen it before in CA. I tried their Roasted Brown Sugar Pearl Milk Tea which was a tealicious option. It comes in an adorable cup with an unnecessary, yet cute bear topper. The regular size is a little small for the price ($5.75) but the drink is well done and the boba has a nice fresh springiness to it that creates an enjoyable boba drinking experience. There are plenty of other options available and you can also get your caffeine fix in with one of their coffee options if you're low on energy. It is warmly heated inside and plenty of seating available within its spacious interior. There are also board games to play or wifi for working purposes, depending on what your intentions are for visiting! Daboba is a great place to work or hang out with a group. However, it can get busy during peak times. It was quite bustling when I visited on a Saturday afternoon so it took a little longer to get my drink. Restrooms are available with a key. read more
I swearrrrr I thought I reviewed this place.... Hmmm ok.... Wellll here in the middle of downtown as it was in the early mornings I was craving some milk tea boba . Now seeing I'm in the homeland of boba in California and can go just about anywhere to get my fix, I was thinking it would be a difficult adventure in a town like Colorado. Well Colorado proves me wrong again. Introducing Da-BOBA! Inside is a nice home welcoming vibe with nice attire and a friendly staff member. The drink was oooufff! On point and I can see why the reviews are what they are and it's a fair price. I'm really liking Colorado seeing this is my fourth trip now and I'm getting familiar with everything . But besides that this is the go to and is right by union station and close to everything! The boba btw was nice and squishy and cooked to perfection! The milk tea was just right ! I planned this place to be my go to at Colorado! read more

Woohoo!! An incredible new boba spot steps away from Union Station! Daboba Denver pleasantly surprised me in so many ways. First, it's a lot bigger than I was expecting, with plenty of table space, outlets, and strong WiFi to stay and work if you need to. Second, I'm new to boba and it's still a hit or miss for me sometimes, but I tried the Roasted Brown Sugar Milk Tea that was recommended by an employee and WOW it was so good! I got it half sweet, and it was perfect for my taste preferences. Third, everyone here is so friendly and sweet, which helps make for an overall lovely experience. Definitely stop here the next time you find yourself in LoDo craving a tasty drink! read more
Such a friendly environment! I had no idea what or how to order but the gal behind the counter explained everything to me and told me I should try their signature drink, the roasted brown sugar milk tea. I did and it was wonderful! Not too sweet too. Their boba pearls are so fresh, they melt in your mouth. I loved the brown sugar at the bottom, it was almost crystallized. I will be back!! read more

Hi Renaye - Thank you so much for the kind words. It was a pleasure…
Nice interior and very friendly owner and staff. The boba has several options, too many to list. You can customize how much sugar you want and the flavor is still good at less sugar. I think that's key to a good boba spot. Right across the street from Whole Foods and Union Station. Great addition to downtown. Support your local boba shop. Give them a try! read more

This place is very good, great. I love boba very much, and this place is the best place I have tried in my life so far. I tried the brown tea, which is wonderful, the dragon fruit is amazing, and the watermelon as well. They have many things. I love this beautiful place very much. read more
Solid milk and milk tea with brown sugar boba drinks. Some unexpected sweetness adjustment limitations to some of the drinks, and no hot drinks were available on a fairly cool week night. Reasonably cute interior with a few board games on the shelf is almost reason enough to bump to 4*. A worthy addition to the milk tea scene, but would hope to see improvement when all their equipment is working. read more

Such a cute bubble tea shop! I like how they also have a coffee menu for people who are not into bubble tea :) Plenty of seating & cute decor. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Their bubble tea is actually pretty decent! We got their pearl milk tea, and roasted brown sugar milk tea. I'm not sure if you can adjust the sugar/ice levels (got too excited and just ordered), but the balance of sugar/milk/tea is (imo) perfect. It's not too sweet. The bubbles were pretty decent. We also got a pastel de nata. 4/5! Not bad :) read more

This is a very instagrammable, cute little boba place in a great location downtown (street parking though). I tried two drinks, the matcha and the brown sugar milk tea. The matcha was properly prepared and the boba was perfectly chewy. I preferred less ice but they don't give alternative ice options for certain drinks. The brown sugar was a bit watered down but the boba was also chewy. I prefer my boba drinks to either have a strong tea taste, or be super sugary. Here the drinks are more plain, but maybe that is a good thing because it means there is less sugar? Overall I would return to try another drink because they have an extensive menu and the cups are ADORABLE! Plus, again, the place is so cute I want to take more selfies here. It's colorful and spacious with tons of seating, which makes it more inviting. read more

I absolutely love Daboba - it's a great option for boba in downtown Denver. I've mostly had their tea-based drinks including this dragon fruit one and a passion fruit green tea. I also really enjoy their lychee jelly's in the teas rather than boba. read more

Was looking for boba downtown and decided to try this place! Looked great from the cute photos online. Order: Got the brown sugar boba milk tea. Very good, perfect boba! Would love to come back and try the cool ideas they have posted near their menu like the lavender or rose matcha, or their honey boba. Ambiance: spacious, comfortable and clean. I could picture someone sitting for a while doing some work on a laptop here. Service: Seemed like the manager or owner who I had a nice interaction with. Some items weren't available and she was so kind about it that I didn't mind at all. I look forward to coming back! read more
