I seriously love this boba spot and I have to come back whenever I get back to Chicago. My favorite is the peach black tea w/ passion fruit boba - it is the best black tea I have had. I wish they carried it in the gallon to go bags because I would buy 2! I also tried the fruit green tea and it was okay. I will be back because it is a favorite. read more

tl;dr boba shop in food court, mid boba but lots of seating Surprisingly busy food court on the edge of Chinatown, came here with my sister as this is their regular meet up spot. The boba shop itself was pretty busy, lines even with two self order kiosks. I got the brown sugar milk, was overall pretty disappointed. The brown sugar and milk tasted fine, but the boba was hard and tasteless; didn't taste like it was cooked in brown sugar. Later asked my sister why they go there, the answer was more gear towards being at the food court and letting people pick whatever shop they wanted to be at. read more

If you're looking for the real deal, Elite Boba has you covered. Order at the two kiosks or with a friendly person at the counter. There's a good variety of flavors and options like milk tea and smoothies. They even have cheese foam top on some drinks which is an experience if you haven't tried it before. It's a life changer! Strawberry matcha has been my go to, but Elite Boba has some classics like milk tea with brown sugar. You can customize the amount of sugar in your drinks, which is nice. The interior is colorful and offers seating. This is my go to place for boba tea! read more

The boba here is hit or miss depending on what you get. I personally like the thicker taro or green tea smoothies with no sugar. The normal milk teas aren't my go to here. Quality- I like the customization options for the smoothies here. I can have thick savory taro smoothie with boba and jelly. It's much healthier than the default most places give with tons of sugar. Quantity- a standard amount comes out. Nothing crazy Atmosphere- I like the seating area to chill and drink with friends. Service- good staff here. No problems with service. read more

These ppl are slow as heck. Staring into their phones for 20 minutes. Never again shall I come

Hmmm... they were out of tapioca and I ordered 2 Brown Sugar Bubble Milks, but instead got 2 Brown Sugar Bubble Milk Teas. The place was pretty messy too. -all of tables needed to be wiped down and chairs and stools scattered everywhere. The place was very steadily busy though and the employees were productively working. Perhaps they aren't staffed well enough for someone to at least keep a casual eye on the seating area? I'll keep coming back though. I love these types of drinks and the only other place in DT Naper who makes them is a further walk from the Benton St parking garage. It may not be a great reason, but it is THE reason. read more

I feel like I've been waiting literal ages for them to open a boba shop in downtown Naperville and this place HITS THE MARK! The inside of the store is super cute and they're very very efficient with the orders considering how busy it gets. I got the mango smoothie this time around and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. Will definitely come again! read more

Checked in for the first time really, really excited to see a boba tea place in Downtown Naperville (across the street from Francesca's's, next door to Everdine's) but they were out of brown suga boba. How does that happen. Cute place, I love the green color looks like it seats about 12-15 people, standing about 20. Considering the lack of tapioca and the real brown sugar boba that was kind of a dud. Interested in coming back when they have the right product. ***UPDATE the strawberry mango with litchi was a hit! Check it out fellow boba lovers! read more

Our favorite milk tea from Chinatown has finally landed in Naperville! We ordered our usual - Signature classic milk with 30% sugar, little ice, and brown sugar boba. It's just the way we remember it and we can't wait to revisit. The ordering process is incredibly simple and straight-forward. There are two kiosks by the counter and you can easily select your drink with your preferred customizations. We visited on a slow Sunday and our drink was ready within minutes. The Chinatown location is much more established and typically has long lines. Drinks could easily take up to 20 minutes to be ready. On the contrary, this was a pleasant and welcoming experience to be in and out within minutes. read more

The staff was extremely nice and offered their suggestions on drinks. All questions were answered and the drinks came out pretty fast for the amount of people there. The drink of choice I had was the flamingo. It was refreshing with the right amount of sweetness. You can customize the drinks with toppings and sugar added. read more

Waited 30 minutes for my drinks, drinks were watered down as they were rushing to make drinks for third party deliver orders and forgotten about our drinks read more

Boba was mediocre. Service wasn't there at all. I got there at 4:50pm, ordered the drink, and got it at 5:16pm. One of the employees had a customer's drink in their hand and just starting eating with someone's drink in their hand ( No gloves either). Yes, they are short staffed, but it didn't seem like they were doing their job. We ordered from the register and a worker was giving attitude when my friend ordered her drink. Basically, almost making my friend feel guilty on ordering her drink. The employees were yapping on about what they got from the store and not making drinks. read more

They were out off Boba when we went on Thursday early evening. How can you be Elite Boba, when you have no Boba?

Boba is okay and service was a tad bit slow. We came on a Sunday afternoon & ordered on the kiosks. We had to wait about 10-15 minutes for our drinks, despite it being not too crowded. It felt like it could've been a bit faster had the employees not been chatting with their friends. We ordered two drinks: the rose milk tea & the honey red bean milk tea -- both were ordered with no ice & 80% sugar. However, the rose milk tea was way too sweet, & also came out warm. I was confused since the red bean came out cool. Also, the menu didn't say that the rose would have a cheese foam on top, but it came with one. Probably not compelled to come back again, maybe to try one of their other drinks. read more

Refreshing! Elite may not be my favorite boba tea spot, but it is my favorite in downtown Naperville. They have a broad selection and seem to avoid powders. You can choose your level of ice and sweetness, and select from several toppings. It has a pleasant atmosphere, bright and colorful. If they keep up the good work, I may raise my review to a 5. read more

This place is incredible. The crew is awesome. Try one of their teas...sooo good. Go with the passion fruit. The "bobistas" are as good as their drinks and are quick to offer help in choosing just one.. A special shout out to Diana and Christopher. They both made my day much brighter. It was like I'd known them forever. read more

The drinks are a hit or miss, they're either pretty decent or kinda meh. The bathroom is nice and clean though

This was place was very cute, and the drink was great! I got a mango smoothie with popping boba (they were out of black tapioca pearls that day). I was very happy with it, and the drink looked so cool too. The crew looked busy and were constantly attending to something which was great to see. I would definitely come back again! read more

This is an great boba place! The service is good and the drinks are great! The only suggestion I have is to get the drinks at less that normal sugar level! read more

For starters the service was mid, they had big screen set in the front so you could place your order, but the screen were very hard to use and the wait time was too long, I suggest that a time limit pop out after u order so you know how long a wait, until your order is ready. Now the drink was absolutely amazing, I say it was well worth the wait , and so for that reason I give it a 4/5, the process could have been faster but food was worth the wait. Would definitely come again. read more

if I could give it zero stars I would but the service was okay one male worker was very rude to me after I asked him to remake my drink. he gave me a weird face and after I asked for some sweetener for my drink and a separate cup to mix it in he practically threw the cup at me and didn't apologize. I never leave reviews at all let alone bad but this service was different I suggest maybe getting a fruity drink because my brown sugar boba was just nasty. Or just don't go at all because my friend said her Taro milk tea was terrible too. read more

The smoothies at this place are never blended properly! There are always huge ice chunks and it's always liquidy. They are just so awful. Highly recommend Eli Tea in downtown Glen Ellyn over this location! read more
