    Donuts AND milk tea!! I was immediately greeted and all my questions were patiently answered. I eventually chose a brown sugar milk tea with coffee boba & mochi. The milk tea was great, but the mochi wasn't for me. I didn't mind the boba & found the quantity yo be just right. My kiddos LOVED their mochi donuts & the little nibble they allowed me was delicious. We were all happy & look forward to another visit.

    Was disappointed with my drink after passing this place a few times, figured I'd stop in for a nice cold milk tea on this hot day. The place is cute, staff is friendly and helpful. However my drink is where they failed, which is unfortunately the main thing I needed them to get right! LoL I ordered a Lavender Milk tea, but once I received it all it tasted was like milk and sugar. No lavender flavor AT ALL. For this I could've just stirred up some cold milk and sugar at my house. Was disappointed but had already driven off at this point so I was just stuck with it. I'm not saying I wouldn't recommend it. I may go back and give them one more chance to redeem themselves but I have other tea/boba places I prefer based on taste.

    Great boba and donuts! Open late. Service was great. Very cute and colorful inside.

    Modern store, super fast service. Got a passion fruit boba with popping mango boba and two mochi donuts. I wish I remembered to ask for less sweet. The donuts were delicious. The Vietnamese coffee flavor was excellent and cookie and cream was good too.

    Such super nice employees! Stopped by here before an appointment and I was unaware that during Covid, they have became a "credit card only" shop. I attempted to leave a cash tip since I had already paid. They would not take my cash tip. I thought that was really weird, but I had to respect that. My boba tea was delish! I will be returning and this time I will leave a tip on my card. March 2022

    My family loves mochi donuts from fat straws! We were disappointed to see they took the original glaze flavor off of the menu, It was so good! Tasted just like werther's originals candies But we were not disappoint by the lemon poppyseed! A lot of lemon flavor but not overly sugary. If you have never had a mochi doughnut imagine a very soft yeast donut that has chew to it and topped with a light glaze. Light and sweet. The service at this location was unmatched! She took her time with my 6 year old and answered all my questions of why they took the original off the menu lol. The store was very clean and located in a walkable area, so after dinner at one of the nearby restaurants you can go grab a donut to take home. Great location, great quality, just bring back the original flavor please !!!!!

    The staff is very ignorant of food allergies. I mentioned my daughter has Celiac and needs to avoid wheat based products. The girl at the counter was confused and said it si the same as organic and vegan. I tried to explain that they are not and that intensified the condition that we had to leave. If you have allergies, avoid this location as they are awful.

    I echo that of other Yelp reviewers when I say that Fat Straws has fast and friendly service. I came to pick up mochi donuts round 7PM on a Tuesday. This location had almost all the flavors available at only limited quantities so I was lucky to be the last person to buy up most of the last batch; there were about 9 flavors when I came in. I ordered a dozen mochi donuts and a dalgona coco (no pearls). I didn't have expectations for the dalgona because I've made it at home but the "coco" really made all the difference! The staff said it was one of her favorites so I took a chance and it's a drink I'll definitely get again for the price and the flavor. The mochi donuts were not as chewy as I expected from my experiences with mochi donuts in the past but the super cute pink box and the assortment of flavors really made up for it. I really recommend ordering this if you want to try with others because the flavors are really interesting. Our favorites were the coffee and black sesame. It is a little pricy (almost $40) for a dozen but I recommend the splurge if you've never had mochi donuts and want to try all the flavors.

    Strawberry Black Tea

    My friend and I went towards closing time and they gave us 3 additional donuts for free. The mochi donuts we're tasty and the perfect chewy consistency. I love their strawberry black tea. It's not too sugary, which I prefer. It was very refreshing and I would definitely go back for some more if I could! Service was great. Fast/efficient. Place was clean.

    Jasmine Milk Tea & Mango Jasmine Tea
    Joey W.

    Worst milk tea and boba I've ever had. The milk tea was extremely watery and the boba was very chewy and had no flavor. For the price point, I would go to Quickly. Jasmine Milk Tea - very watery Mango Jasmine Milk Tea - also watery and tasted extremely artificial We stopped by because my roommate wanted to try their mochi donuts. We tried the pandan mochi donut. Their mochi donuts don't have the mochi chewiness to it like MoDo donuts do. The donut was more cake like and tasted like a frosted donut. You would not know it was Pandan.

    First impression: The tapioca (boba) here is so fresh. Oh my gosh. The inner decor is dimly lit and cute. I ordered the kumquat jasmine tea. I was really curious with these two combo and surprisingly, it is as expected. A mixed of sour with a huge hint of jasmine. The tea was truly good but it was missing a little something. Maybe the combination of these two items are not made for my tastebuds. 4/5 I also got the cookies and cream mochi donuts. 5/5 It was honestly so sweet and soft to the bite. Must come back and try their other teas!

    Fat Straws is very good. Their boba tea is good and not too expensive, and their new mochi donuts are AMAZING. The boba tea: it's pretty standard. I don't need anything fancy for my boba tea and noticed that their milk tea is one of their specials right now so I even got it for a great price. The mochi donuts: GET ONE. I got one, and should've gotten more! I asked for a rec and was told to try the Churro one. Got it and it was incredible. I was skeptical because it was mochi and wondered what that would be like, but boy was it so so, chewy, and had a great taste. I would highly recommend these donuts!

    Barbie has a thing for Fat Straws, and I can understand that. She gets the little tapioca balls in her mouth, chews on them a bit, and always swallows, but only, and I repeat only, for Fat Straws. She also likes "Long Straws" but I'm not sure where the listing for that is. She said that the Fat Straw I got was good and fairly satisfying, but she actually prefers, and I quote, "Fatter Straws." I'm not sure where the listing is for that either. I'm not actually a big fan of the Fat Straws franchise though, and I have to say that I honestly don't get it. Fruitealicious is another local chain, and I think it's much better. I do appreciate them but I don't think they're great. There's somewhere between okay and good. And if a lot of cute girls come here, it's Thot Straws. And if Ben Affleck comes here, it's Bat Straws. And if Starlight comes here, it's Cat Straws. I haven't had an amazing drink here yet but they haven't been bad either. Service has been really nice at all the locations we've been to - which is three or four now I think. My favourite thing about this place is definitely the pictures that Barbie took here. There are some interesting sunlight Shadows cast inside so it's not great for pictures but it's better than nothing. A lot better. And if you come here to talk, not drink, it's Chat Straws. And if the employees *really* don't like you, it might be Spat Straws. And if a Middle Eastern legend comes here, it's Arafat Straws. And if Mr Mackey comes here, it's MrHat Straws. It gets pretty packed in here, and the AC isn't so great in warm weather (which in Dallas is about 13 months a year). It's a good hangout spot, although a bit dated. Must be one of the older locations - possibly the original. And if you fall out of the tall building across the street, it's Splat Straws. And if your partner is clearly just using you, go to Doormat Straws. And if you have no clean clothes, go to Laundromat Straws. And if you're rich, go to Aristocrat Straws. And if you wanna imitate Manson, go to Copycat Straws. And if you wanna stop a fight, go to Diplomat Straws. And if you can do the splits in mid air go to Acrobat Straws. Or a strip club. Maybe it'll be called "Polecat Straws."

That said, once we arrived, it was absolutely packed to the brim. Every table was full, including a private conference room, and the space itself isn't small at all. I imagine it's a bit easier to find seating when the weather is nicer, but today was freezing, which made their six outdoor tables completely unusable. My mom ordered the chocolate croissant and said it was the best she's had at any coffee shop I've taken her to. We had it warmed, and it was incredibly rich and indulgent. The coffee was fine--nothing memorable--but the matcha was to die for. They had about six people working in a very small space, and despite that, service held up well considering how busy it was. The crowd skewed younger, with lots of people posted up working for long stretches. Definitely a long-haul seating kind of place. The vibe was great: louder music, energetic atmosphere, and it somehow all worked. There's also a stuffy (quiet) room available for rent if you need it. Matcha rating: 8/10. Second best matcha I've had in Dallas so far--better than La La Land, but still not topping Tried & True Stellar, which remains my #1. This place has real character--very local, very lived-in. I'd come back 100%, probably earlier in the day to snag better seating, since once people sit down here, they really settle in.

    Stopped by for an event and ordered the mango sticky rice matcha since I love the traditional mango…read moresticky rice dessert. If you're someone who finds traditional matcha a little too strong or grassy, this is a great option. It was lighter, fruit-forward, and the mango flavor came through nicely. The pastry case also caught my attention--everything looked fresh and incredibly tempting. I didn't get a chance to try any this visit, so I'm looking forward to trying some of the pastries next time. Overall, a nice spot for a lighter matcha drink and worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different. Staff was sweet and organized as they were a bit busy.

Trisha took my order and was super awesome at making many great recommendations while Miriam cranked the beverages for the people ahead of me. Loved the GF option for an almond loaf. This reminds me of a wonderful home cafe mixed with a nice southern coffee shop. They even have seating outside for a beautiful day like the day I went. Very Austin vibes. Seating options are from regular wood bench to a cozy couch. Loved the live plants that add fresh air and a nice atmosphere. They had low playing music that was very urban so you can carry a conversation while supporting smaller artists and working on work. Headphones if you'd like your own music would be great and wouldn't be interrupted with the music playing in the shop. Biscoff caramel latte: Wonderful flavor of coffee. I was fearful it'd be too sweet but it was perfectly sweetened. The Biscoff crumbles add the Biscoff flavor and the caramel isn't overpowering. It's a soft balance of the two together. The foam was pleasant and would recommend hot. Personally would love a stronger Biscoff flavor cause Biscoff is my favorite cracker. But other than that, a super solid beverage. Almond Loaf (GF): The crumble and moist texture were perfect. Not too crazy of a GF taste. Different but wonderful. The top has a crumble similar to Almond croissant that is so satisfying if you're craving a lil more sweet with your bite. Together: Wonderful together. The almond loaf isn't dense but it doesn't completely fall apart either. Super happy.
