Now, it's still growing with love by two brothers born and raised in Bulldog Nation, honoring their parents. Five Points location opened in 2014.

As I've been sipping on it, its whole beans are washed, well balanced, offer rich and bold flavors. You can taste the home roots. PARKING: It can be tricky to get in here. It's located off busy, S.

It offers something for everyone. They cater to kids and kids at heart... with a sweet tooth. Stop by or visit them online and see what all they have to offer.

Service was quick and friendly, which is always appreciated when you're coming in with a group. Great treats, great people, and a great way to celebrate a big milestone. We'll definitely be back!

This is a small chain, as they have some around ATL, and they know what they're doing…read more This is also a great space they have. Tons of chairs and distance to spread out and do work if need be, right in town. The decor is very modern, and while I don't like UGA stuff plastered everywhere as a townie, I still appreciate the local addition to the inside. So far, I have ordered two drinks: // Taro slush w/ golden boba // Hokkaido milk tea w/ crystal boba The were both great, and prepared fast as heck. Also love bubble tea spots were you can adjust the sweet and ice level, which they do. I wasn't sure if I'd notice much of a difference between the different boba options, but I now know that I'll want to pair a lighter boba with certain drinks, as the crystal boba was just that, Golden a step above, and I think the balance of the light crystal boba with the rich caramel flavor of the Hokkaido went very well together, and I think I prefer it over the classic tapioca pearl in this context; hats off to Ding for helping me discover this for an even tastier and well-rounded drink. They were efficient, fast, and the quality hasn't seemed to suffer. Now, on to the few cons: // Ordering with the weird microphone at the divided window panes at checkout; it seems both the cashier and the customer have a hard time understanding each other, having masks to not follow lips makes it harder, had to repeat things on my order both times. Not a big deal, but an inconvenience, and I appreciate them putting up COVID measures from the get-go. // Boba isn't included in the main drink price. It's usually 55¢ extra (a little more for premium toppings), and maybe this just comes from me being used to having it included, it's why I'm coming to a bubble cafe, after all. I think it may be so they can offer more boba varieties, so again, not the biggest deal, but another perceived inconvenience from what I'm used to, may not even be the standard, so I'm not too off put because I may lack perspective. // The staff seem like they are still figuring it out both times I went by, and they weren't rude or the like.. just eh, but they may very well be stressed, it does seem like a lot to have train folks with with all their options. // No food options / little snacks I looked for this and didn't see any, but will update if I stand corrected or they bring snacks options to the menu. I do mainly want the drink, but if I want to sit and read or work on something it'd be nice to have the option. All in all, I am happy with this new bubble tea establishment, and I want to see it stick around.

Always a staple and reliable boba place. Went back recently and ordered the brown sugar milk tea…read morewith boba and it was so delicious. You can honestly never go wrong with brown sugar as a flavor. I also tried the passion fruit milk tea with star fruit jelly. Definitely a new favorite, I was reluctant to try a fruit milk flavor but it was surprisingly refreshing! The caramel Hokkaido black milk tea was super yummy too and more dessert-like. You can't go wrong with any flavor here! Prices and sizes are fair and workers are super sweet.

It was excellent as was the side salad I ordered to go with it. Service wise, you order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table when it's ready. It works. I washed mine down with iced tea as one does. It's a nice space. Cheers!

It was so cozy and they had a huge wall of game boards, it was fun to look at and choose games from. I definitely felt like a kid again here. We came here on a football game day, and it was empty as everybody was out watching the game. Which was fine because more game options for us! I'm not sure how busy it gets, but there are lots of tables for seating. There is a $7 charge for each person playing. We spent about 2 hours here and played 3 different games. It is so easy to lose track of time here. I definitely could have stayed longer and tried out more games, but we had to leave as it was getting late. The workers here are very friendly and welcoming. They give great game recommendations! You'll need to ask them to grab the games for you, as the board games can be difficult to get to and they are set a certain way.

The peach flavor could have been a bit stronger but the danish was well made. The cinnamon bun was just live a cinnamon roll center without the icing but the custard in the middle was delicious. Excited to go back and get a load of bread. Prices were as expected.

It is a family owned and run spot and they are really involved with the community and the people downtown. Twice they Came outside to give us samples because we had our dogs with us. If you are lucky, you can see them whipping up a new creation in the window. They Even have a fan that sucks the amazing scents outside to draw you in. My favorite is the chocolate covered Twinkie and smite. It is the thickest and smoothest chocolate. The ice cream is amazing as well. Their berry crumble from the summer was wild and the current pumpkin is out of sight !!! They have plenty of but two get one free deals. The fudge and the caramel popcorn are must tries!
