    It actually glows !! Awesome!!!
    Veronica C.

    Second time around at this glow tea location and I still feel this place is on the pricey side for what you get but I had to give an updated review because this time I gave a milk tea a try and it was better than the regular tea. I got the brown sugar milk tea with chocolate added and the flavor was how I expected it to be... heavy milk and brown sugar flavor with just a little added sweetness from the chocolate sauce - it was pretty yummy ! I came today in the morning right when they opened and there was no line and it was very quiet in the mall. Great time to come by. Also, they gave me a FREE gift for checking in on Yelp !! I got a cool little light bulb keychain and well, WATT do ya know? It lights up !!! How about that ?! Check in on Yelp y'all, got to take advantage of the perks !!!

    Me and my son loved it.. Was hesitant about trying it because of the reviews but my son insisted. Honestly not sure why it's not 5 stars place. They were pretty quick and everything we tried was good and freshly made... Definitely recommend it!

    Brown Sugar Boba Tea

    Came back for another try as one of my besties wanted to try the place out. I warned her about the charges when we arrived and she was not amused about it either. Originally I didnt know if they charged for a refill and they do. Whether if its a large or small lightbulb you keep, its $2.95 to refill. This time around my friend and I tried the taro. We decided not to get the lightbulb as we found the regular is a large drink at just about $5 and $0.50 for each topping. These regular drinks cannot be refilled. It would be another $5 charge. The taro tasted sweet, but not as sweet as the brown sugar i ordered last time. Staff continues to be nice and busy. The pay stations remain a pay for yourself station. One located in front of their store and one located right at the register. FYI - dont forget your card as this place tends to have a LOT of people forget their card after they swipe, tap, or insert. Overall, i still give the place 3-stars only because it feels ticky tacky with the prices. Although, i must say their drinks tasted better this time around.

    I rate it 1 out of 5. I've made better tasting bona milk tea at home.This place taste like powdered sugar and milk AND the stand at the auburn outlet is a total SCAM. They have two huge banners that say $2.95 refill. I even asked the guy, AS I WAS ORDERING, if the refill was $2.95 for any drink and he said he it just depended on what drink I wanted refill (they have drinks at different prices). Nowhere did he mention anything that I had to buy the extra $4.99 light bulb glass for the refill. There's nothing that would indicate that I did.... So I order, thinking I'll come back for a refill on my way out. I come back to get the refill and the same guy tells me NO, you can't get a refill. So obviously, I ask why, and he says they only do refills on their light bulb cups, which cost and additional 4.99. So if I was to order one drink, it's 4.99+ 5.75 so almost 11 bucks for one drink?!? That's insane. So no, I didn't get the light bulb cup. So I said, well where does it say that? And he points to the big banner and says, see, refill for the light bulb. So I ask, where does it actually say that? He says, it doesn't, it's just a picture and actually, they should probably be more clear on that - his words, not mines. So I ask, I can't be the only one has asked about this, there can't be no way, and the guy says nah, I have to tell people all the time. So in other-words, they knowingly FALSE ADVERTISE. You should be sued for how much people come to actually support you only to scam your same supporters. I'd bet you'd legitimately lose assuming 100% of your customers think they can get a refill and ZERO of them don't.

    Giving 3 stars cause even though the worker was rude ....the drink was good!! Been here before but forgot to check in. Waited for about 3 minutes for my order to be taken, (not a problem!) they were making the previous people's drinks. I order a taro smoothie. The order taker asks any toppings I say no thank you, she then asks me what size but I can't hear her cause we both have masks on. She then rolls her eyes and grabs the laminated sign and asks me what...size...do...you....want..... talking to me like I am stupid. I quickly say regular please.she quickly throws the sign back down and rings me up. If she didn't give me attitude ... I would have given 4-5 stars! Treat customers with respect and maybe they will come back and give good reviews!! This is not how you treat people. I get it sometimes we have bad days and maybe this was one of her bad days! I will give them another try but today, they only get 3 stars from me. I will review again the next time I go back.

    Taro smoothie with tapioca
    Laura H.

    We got blended taro smoothies with tapioca. The ordering system was a little confusing. I tried to scan the QR code when I got up to the register, but I wasn't able to connect to anything. I quickly realized that there was a big self-order screen. The drinks were made quickly, the order was accurate, and they were tasty, but nothing out of the ordinary. I would go here again now that I know the process.

    This Is the only place in the mall where I can get a bubble waffle. It may not be as good as the bubble waffles I get when I visit Canada at the Richmond Night Market, but this place hits the spot. I've had better boba drinks, but when I'm thirsty, I would rather go to this place and get a milk tea with boba, than a soda or lemonade from the food court nearby. I can't fault them because I'm a picky boba milk tea person. If they don't have the right tools to make the perfect boba, then it's not their fault. It's a mall kiosk. So I'm giving them a fair review. Since it's practically the only place in the mall, I'll for sure visit as much as I can, but it's not my first choice of places to get Boba drinks.

    Great boba and great service! Coconut milk w/ lychee jelly and lava smoothie ( smoothie w/ ) & extra boba (tapioca).

    Super cute place to get bubble tea & treats! We loved the light up bulb cups. Wish someone would have told us they lit up, lol. Anyways, the workers were nice. I think it may have been the owner that gave me 3 bulb keychains for the kids. That was sweet. Just like the treats. They were yummy. Def stick around the mall a little & get a refill for a discounted price before you leave.

    Accidentally deleted the photo of my drink. Oops. But I got a small lightbulb of (I believe it was called) Brown Sugar Milk Tea. It was delicious, but EXTREMELY sweet. Still really enjoyed it. Was such a cute little place in the mall, a small stop my friends and I made while taking a break from Dave & Busters. Highly recommend for the lightbulb cups(:

Of course, I went with Auburn location because that was what my food delivery apps informed me at 9:30 pm (Bonney Lake location already closes by 8:00 pm). I ordered grape fruit jasmine tea with lychee jelly. On top of that, you know you wouldn't be able to go without the popular original bubble waffle. I am simple as I just needed 2 cream types: original puff and Oreo flavor. The store did an amazing job in packaging the items and not let it spill everywhere. My ordered arrived intact, and I certainly had a good time enjoying my late night snack!

We have yet to try the bubble waffles due to my egg restrictions. Don't know if we would try it, but however, the tease we have selected has been really good. We do see our self returning again since it's close to the neighborhood and the pricing is reasonable. Plenty of parking when the other stores are not open there's better parking options. No public restrooms. The customer service is welcoming as far as welcome in may take your order and then they take your order and then they call your number when your order is ready. Service is served with smiles.

The vibe is great, too, and they're all really nice. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough.

    I stopped by to grab a drink in downtown Auburn…read more Its a very small shop. There is some street parking or you can parking in the lot across the street. The lady who worked there was very nice. I asked if any of the milk teas had any milk substitutes or lactose free. She said they did not have any substitutes. So I elected to try their fresh teas instead. I asked for a recommendation. She mentioned a few options and I decided to try their passion fruit tea with passion fruit topping. When I got the drink. I took a sip of it and the sweetness from the sugar was so overpowering i wanted to spit it out. I wish they had the option for 50% sweetness. I also shook the cup prior to mix it and it was still, that sweet... Also, it had a strange medicine like after taste. Im not sure if its from the passion fruit tea, or the topping, but it was not appealing and ive had many passion fruit teas at other places that did not taste like this. I can only speak for the fresh, passion fruit tea, but it was pretty awful, overlt sweet with a strange aftertaste. They do not have any milk substitutes, so if you want a milk tea drink, and youre lactose intolerant, you're out of luck.

I've tried most of the…read moredrinks on the menu, and my favorites are Brown Sugar Milk Brulee, Strawberry Crema and the Yogurt series. I've tried several seasonal items, and most are just okay. Recently I tried a holiday drink Crema Thai Tea Cookie Latte with brown sugar - it's 4 out of 5 stars for me. The cookie butter is stronger than the Thai tea taste, an interesting combo. And as always, brown sugar boba is the best. However, the drink itself cost $10.95, and with the addition of brown.sugar boba, I ended up paying $12. So MissBoba is definitely an occasional treat for my wallet. Service is always great, they always ask for sweetness level adjustment and tell you to mix the drinks well. Inside isn't too big, and gets quite crowded when it's busy, especially when the line is out the door. Also, love that they host pop-ups of donuts and other baked goods throughout the year.
