Delicious as always! I got the original milk tea, 50% sweet, whole milk with honey pearls. The milk really helps temper the bitterness of the tea (along with the sugar, haha) but the astringency of the tea is there along with the malty flavor of the tea. The boba is the perfect chewy texture - not too hard or too soft. I did not try any of their sandwiches (there's so many other yummy options near by!) but it seems like they were selling at a decent clip. If I had to identify a weakness, it would be that a lot of times it seems like they have supply chain issues. They did not have lactose-free milk when I visited the past few times. I hope they work things out! I would have purchased two drinks if I could have substituted the dairy for lactose free. read more

I absolutely loved this place! First you come in to the shop and feel like you're in a lab of genius scientists crafting up delicious concoctions. White coats + goggles and all. Everything was generously spaced out and looked sparkling clean - THANK YOU I came up to the register and the gal was so sweet, offering up suggestions and masterfully navigating me through the top sellers (I'm a bit of a newb with bubble tea). I expressed I liked milk tea and she recommended the Osmanthus milk tea with Golden Honey boba. She said their standard was 50% sweetness and less ice. I ordered her reco and was super happy I did. One thing to note is that this drink was pretty $$$. Around $7 for a medium...however, now is the time to try because they're upgrading you to a large size on the house! read more

We stopped by here on our way as we toured UW. We loved the name and we thought it would be fun to stop by. It was a little busy but we were able to find some chairs and chill. We got a tiramisu tea which has this cheese foam which was interesting. The drink was pretty good and I would interested to try some of the other flavors! read more

I was in UDistrict with a friend and we were looking for an afternoon boba. We decided to stop by Don't Yell at Me (mostly because of the name lol). The inside is small but clean and plenty of seating. The menu is fairly concise and their specialty is their cheese foam. We decided to split a tiramisu milk tea. It came out fairly quickly and it was delicious! The cheese foam was interesting and added a tanginess that for a tiramisu flavor was yummy but I'm curious how it would taste with other flavors. Overall cute and quiet spot to hang out with friends! read more

Solid boba shop with a good amount of seating and a restroom available for customers. You order at a kiosk then wait until they call your number Osmanthus jasmine milk tea with brown sugar pearls: 4/5. I think this is a more unique drink and I really liked it. I personally recommend 100% sweetness bc my friend got the next level down and it was slightly too bitter for both of us. If you like more bitter milk teas though, the 100% might be a bit much read more

To be honest I often don't like the drinks at Don't Yell At Me more than I like them. This was the first drink that I had which I enjoyed. I think their tea drinks are just lacking and overall average, if we're talking about the average there's much better places nearby like TP Tea, Macu, and in general it's honestly just average. I think the service is fine and inside too, however sometimes it feels a little cold because the interior is just white all around. read more

A good boba spot to try if you're around the U-District area! I had their brown sugar milk, which I enjoyed. Their recommended sweetness was 50% and I agree with that amount. The drink was still moderately sweet and I still liked it. The boba was prepared nicely. The service is okay. You order through a kiosk, but when the employees have time, they can order for you. There's only one kiosk, so it can create a bit of traffic with ordering. However, the drinks were made pretty quickly. It only took a few mins for my drink to be ready! The cost was around $8 which is a bit on the pricier side. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice! Great lightning and it was decently organized. The seating can be limited though, but an okay amount of space. read more

I walk by this place almost every day and have been meaning to trying, based primarily on the name. It also has a cool, clean vibe inside (albeit, small). I was not even sure where to begin. Their menu is large and there are so many options. Far more than just your standard boba menu. I ended up ordering two different Fresh Milk Tea Smoothies topped with cheese foam. I ordered a mango and a pink lychee. Both had real fruit and were topped with the aforementioned cheese foam (which was delicious). I was very impressed and will be back to try more. My only reservation is the $8.30 per drink price tag, which seems a bit steep and makes "Don't Yell At Me" a special treat and not a place I can afford to regularly frequent.... read more

Great milk tea and flavorful. I'd come here again. They have a good variety to choose from and a chill vibe I shed, right on University Way where it's popping as the younglings say. My first time at this spot, so I am curious to try their other flavors at some point in future trips I make to Seattle. There's parking on the street, but limited as this city is always busy... so that might be your only struggle, but the tea will help sooth that. read more

Not my first time at Don't Yell At Me, but it is for this particular location in University District. My friend and I were able to make our order on the self-ordering kiosk with ease. I ordered the Lavender Milk Tea (regular ice, 100% sweetness, and lactose free milk). Even though it was freezing outside, I still enjoyed my not too overly sweet iced drink. The space is well lit and spacious. There are a few tables in there that are perfect for chatting with friends, or even studying. I didn't check to see if there were outlets at these spots though. read more

Stopped in on a whim and got the taro milk tea. Was very pleased with the flavor of it--not too sweet and not powdery at all. Service was quick and somewhat helpful--they were out of the Sakura festival flavor they were supposed to have, or rather they had decided to not sell it that day (despite it being listed as a valid day on the map for the event).

I love the white decor. It's minimalist and inviting. The countertop is towards the back of the tea shop and as you enter there are chairs. This location is always packed and I ordered a taro bubble tea. I've tried a lot of bubble tea and for me it's ratio and consistency. I enjoy my bubble tea in the less sweet end and this is my personal preference. As most taro powders come pre made, everything was balanced. The blending was elevated than gossip for comparison. I really felt like I was transported in an anime episode or I was in another country. I love how atmospheres can do that. Super cool vibes, chill music, fast service, and a great place on the ave in sea of competitors. read more

Don't Yell At Me is my favorite boba spot in Seattle! The last time I went was on a Monday night around 6:30 pm and there was no line. The self serves kiosk was great and had photos which is always helpful. The drinks came out minutes after I ordered them. I love four seasons and have found it hard to find a boba spot with four seasons in Seattle. I ordered mine with both jelly and boba and found it to be just right in terms of sugar. We also got a mango green tea with 100% sweetness and it wasn't overly sweet like how some shops are. My boyfriend commented how nothing tasted artificial! The decor is very cute and aesthetically pleasing. There's a good amount of seating too. read more

Cute boba place! Came on a Wednesday afternoon, it was pretty empty but randomly got busy after we ordered from the kiosk probably because of the hot weather.

After having a good experience at the Kirkland branch of DYAM, we stopped by the much closer University District one. This location seems to have shorter lines, but offers the same high quality drinks. We did decide to branch out a bit to try some drinks we wouldn't normally get and even though I'd say those drinks are a bit subpar (for our tastes at least), I still recommend DYAM. As long as you stick with the more traditional milk tea flavors, this place can be excellent. Caramel Jasmine Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Brown Sugar Boba ($6.70) - This drink isn't the best. While it has small flowery undertones, there's a very sharp caramel flavor that penetrates each sip. It's way too strong with a flavor that kind of tastes like it's been fermented. We went with the brown sugar boba in this drink, which we found to be on the firmer side. Not horribly hard - there's still a bit of a chew, but they are noticeably worse than the honey boba. In addition, for some reason the brown sugar boba has lots of small nooks, crannies and crevices that impeded my enjoyment of the drink a little. Milk Tea Rating: 3/5 Boba Rating: 4/5 Original Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Honey Boba ($6.25 ) - This tea, on the other hand, is excellent. It has almost a smoky flavor as compared to toasty. The sweetness level is pretty good, and the honey boba is super chewy. The only downside - they don't seem to be that consistent with the amount of boba they add to the drinks. For this one, by the time we were 3/4 of the way done, the boba was already gone. Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 2nd Visit: Taro Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Honey Boba ($6.70) - I don't recommend this drink. At first I thought it would be taro paste mixed in a milk tea, but this drink seems to be taro concentrate added to milk tea. It does taste like taro, but more on the chemically side with a bit more of a flowery vibe vs. earthy. The drink is quite sweet, almost too sweet, and the taro flavor completely overpowers the tea. I would skip this drink in the future. The boba this visit for some reason was also not up to par: a bit hard, with smooth spheres but very different in size between the smallest and largest. Not the most pleasant chew due to how hard the pearls are. Milk Tea Rating: 2/5 Boba Rating: 3/5 I've visited two more times (so four visits total) and my feelings have cooled off a bit. For both of those visits, they had run out of at least one drink (coincidentally the drinks that I had wanted to order), and were completely out of lactose-free milk. In addition, this location seems to be pretty inconsistent with boba texture and the amount of boba they give. For example, on my previous visit, I got the Osmanthus Milk Tea, which is nice and flowery with bits of flower petals throughout the drink, but the amount of boba they gave wasn't enough to last even half the drink. So overall, when the drinks are made properly and they have everything in stock, the drinks can be great. For the inconsistency issues at this location, I really can't give them a 5. It's still good, but I think it's the weakest of the three DYAM locations I've visited. Bathroom - One unisex room that requires a code to get in read more

There are so many boba places in University District that I tend to overlook some places. I was out with friends when we tried to find a spot that was open past 9pm. Luckily these guys were still open! I got a good ol fashioned Brown Sugar Milk because I wanted to see how it stacks up to others. It was pretty good! The thing is they had so many options that I have to come back to try others because they also look good. The store was small which is pretty typical for boba spots but I feel like they could do a little more for decoration. Other than that a solid spot! read more

Don't Yell At Me was my favorite boba shop during my visit to Seattle. The interior is very bright and lots of seating. Around 2pm on a Thursday the whole shop was empty so my drink was ready within minutes. I tried their Osmanthus Jasmine Milk Tea with Rose Jelly and it was really good. It had the right amount of floral. Also, I absolutely adore their logo! Really fits with the name of this boba shop. read more

Don't yell at me just give me my boba. The shop is cute, nestled into a row of several bubble tea places, but since we had been to Don't Yell at Me on Capitol Hill we decided to go here.

Dont Yell At Me is a a boba shop local to UW. The sitting area is quite spacious, lively, and clean, and the staff were welcoming. Amongst their variety of teas, I chose the original milk tea (less ice, 25% sugar), since I wanted interested in a regular Ceylon milk tea. The original milk tea at 25% sweetness was tasty and made similar to a latte. When swirled, it produced a nice spiral gradient. Without swirling, the tea drinks like a latte, super sweet and milky first, followed by the boldness of Ceylon. When swirled, it was more tame and less sweet - highly recommend swirling first! Overall, the milk tea was tasty, but I wished I could've swirled it before punching in the straw. Having swirled after, the taste was quite inconsistent. The initial syrup sip surprised me, and I had to run towards the top tea layer for relief. Otherwise, no complaints! read more

Cute boba spot. Self order on screen and wait for your number to be called. Check your drink number and make sure it's the correct drink.

Definitely on the more expensive side for boba, but so delicious and worth every penny! I'm a huge fan of TP Tea's strawberry milk, and Don't Yell At Me does the same thing! I thought their pearls were even better than TP Tea's. Their cheese top is also a nice touch to a relatively sweet drink. It's a good salty and sweet treat! There's one kiosk to order from and you never interact with an employee, so if you're an introvert, it's perfect. There is some seating, but not too much. I just got mine to go. Parking around here is tough, but there's so many good eats around here, couldn't pass this up! read more

My family finished up dinner in the area and were looking for a boba place to try. We found this place right outside of UW. Parking can be difficult since there's only street parking. It was summer break for us but UW still had school going on so there were a lot of students there. This place was packed on a Tuesday night. They have a kiosk to look at the menu and place your orders. My family got the osmanthus jasmine green tea, tiramisu milk tea with cheese foam, brown sugar pearl with milk and coconut jelly, and taro with milk and coconut jelly. I got the osmanthus jasmine green tea with osmanthus tea jelly. The tea itself was good, but I would not add the tea jelly next time. I didn't like how within the jelly were these harder pieces. It was a different texture change that I wasn't accustomed to. The tiramisu actually tasted like tiramisu, and the other two drinks were good with the addition of coconut jelly. The tea here is high quality and I liked each one, I just wouldn't get the osmanthus tea jelly again. They also have the best logo I've ever seen lollll. read more

My go-to order would be an oolong milk tea with boba but I wanted something refreshing too. I tried the osmanthus jasmine fresh milk tea and the pink lychee smoothie with cheese foam, both half sweet. 1. Pink lychee smoothie with cheese foam was really good and refreshing. Though it's a smoothie it wasn't super thick. It had lychee bits at the bottom too. The half sweet was just right for me. 2. Osmanthus jasmine fresh milk tea was light in flavor, a bit more on the watery consistency. My guess is that too much fresh milk would overpower the light tea flavor. Boba was made well though. Aside from the drinks, the space was open, had a couple of small round tables. The plastic straws snap really easily. I had asked the worker for her recommendations and she just told me all the thumbs up ones, which wasn't helpful lol. Solid choice for boba still, close to campus too. read more

Service was quite rude tbh. Had the cashier roll her eyes at my friend because she didn't know where to pick up the bubble tea. The store has 4-5 tables but fills up quickly. I wouldn't come here to study as it's loud but it's nice to come with ur friends. Drink was good tho. Got their Halloween special which was pumpkin. On the pricier side for bubble tea. read more

This spot is located within walking distance from the University of Washington. The inside is spacious, and there is a good amount of seating for people that want to sit and talk or do work. I got the lychee smoothie (50% sugar) topped and cheese foam, and personally, I feel like the drink has a lot of potential. I liked the bits of lychee at the bottom and the flavor of the drink, however, I felt like the drink was a bit hard to mix in with the cheese foam especially at the very beginning. As the drink melted and everything mixed together, I found myself really liking the flavor, I just wish that I had been able to mix the cheese foam and drink together thoroughly from the beginning. read more

So I usually get the original milk tea whenever I try a new boba spot because if they're doing the original right, the other drinks should be pretty good. Sadly, Don't Yell At Me did not satisfy my boba cravings. Their original and traditional milk teas didn't have the tea flavor I was looking for and frankly was pretty watered down. The boba could've been softer, and I didn't get the caffeine kick I normally do drinking boba :(. Maybe an off day because they have good reviews, or maybe I just got the wrong one...not really sure...cute cups though and friendly service. read more

Don't yell at me is one of my favorite boba places in the Seattle area. Their tea flavor is perfect - not too strong, not too light. I like their cheese foam as well.

And I like that there is some nice seating area to chill. read more

The name of the store caught my eye. I got a brown sugar milk with honey boba. I'd never had this kind of boba before, and they let me sample some. It's golden colored, felt softer and sweeter than normal boba, and there's a definite honey taste. I was happy with the size of my drink. The store was pretty empty, so we got our drinks fast. read more

Super tasty and delicious every time. Flavors are unique. Staff is friendly and super helpful with understanding the flavors and sweetness levels. Always great to ask the staff for a recommendation.

This review is purely for the Osmanthus Jasmine Milk Tea with boba, less ice, less sugar. It tasted awful and way too sweet even with the less sugar customization. I could barely taste the tea flavor. It was just sugary milk (the photo might make you think otherwise). Maybe the barista made it with the normal amount of sugar. Maybe I just had a bad first time experience. The boba was also bad. I finished less than 1 inch of the drink before throwing it away. I want to give this place another chance since there are other positive reviews but $7 for another drink that might taste as awful as this one is too risky. read more

Holy holy moly yall, this boba place is sooooo good! Like so so good. I drink a lot of boba, at least once per week and I always try to get it when traveling (once per day quota max). So when I say this place is goood, it is like better than like 90% of every boba place I've ever tried good. The tea is perfectly floral and the ratio to milk and fruit is just right. Seriously run don't walk here. Usually only 1 or 2 drinks are really good at a boba place. But here? Everything we tried was amazing. read more

I was only able to try one drink from here, so I'll preface by saying I don't think this one drink is an accurate representation of the entire store. BUT, alas, this is the only thing I was able to try from here, so it's the only thing I can speak on. I ordered the osmanthus jasmine milk tea, which I saw, from reviews and from the menu, was a highly recommended item. I also love jasmine teas, and the addition of osmanthus would only elevate it, or so I THOUGHT. All in all this drink kind of tasted like nothing. It was somewhat like watery milk with a light essence of tea. And this drink did not let you forget there was osmanthus inside when I'd randomly suck up osmanthus leaves through the straw that were big enough that I'd have to spit them out. The aftertaste was also so painful that I'd take another sip just to get the aftertaste out only to then suffer the same aftertaste again and the cycle just went on and on. The bright spot was that the golden honey pearls had a decent texture- not too soft and not too hard, but where I was expecting a lot of honey flavor, I got no flavor. And at a certain point, after the boba absorbed some of the tea / was steeping in the tea for a bit, eating the boba just contributed to the aftertaste. Overall just a somewhat unfortunate boba drinking experience. But, again, this was just this one time, having this one drink, and next time I'm in Seattle I would absolutely 100% be willing to try it again! read more
