    Wow! Everything we had here was delicious and we had a lot! Excellent customer service. Very clean restrooms and restaurant. Can't wait to come back and try more of their menu!

    Why 5 stars? Because this is another great boba option when I'm visiting family in Friendswood. --- --- --- I visit family plenty, so I'm in Friendswood a lot, and always on the hunt for new places. On this particular day, I'd already had enough sugar for 8 men, but once you pop, you just can't stop. So on the way back home, we opted to grab some boba. I asked if they had smoothies and the woman mentioned that the frappe's are basically that. I was in an oreo mood, so I went with cookies-n-cream and did not regret it! If you ever enjoyed a Starbucks frappe, it was literally that, but cookies-n-cream. My wife had a taro boba tea, which she wished were a bit sweeter, but I really enjoyed mine. I also couldn't resist grabbing a thai pandan bun, which was oozing out warm pandan cream. It was as amazing as it sounds. I would happily come back here again, even just for the other various treats they had available in the case. I'm happy Hero Cha is here and will be back again in the future when I'm in town!

    Hero Cha is sure to save your day in Friendswood with their boba milk tea and assorted bakery items. I'm surprised a local tapioca shop opened up in the heart of Friendswood, but I'm hoping it's here to stay. Walking in, it's very brightly colored, lots of natural lighting, and a cool "Hero" theme throughout. The family that owns the place was very nice, and was telling us how they've only been open for 3 days so far. We tried their green milk tea w/ tapioca, strawberry hero milk foam latte w/ tapioca, chocolate milk tea w/ coffee jelly, and taro milk tea w/ tapioca. All the drinks were made to order, and tasted pretty good. The only thing I would maybe ask for next time is for the drink to be less sweet, but that's just my preference. The tapioca was consistently soft though which is a great sign of any boba shop. The thing that blew us away though was their freshly baked custard buns. These were AMAZING! They served them still warm and the custard filling was overflowing as soon as you broke into them. We tried their cream cheese filling, thai tea custard, and pandan custard. The bread part is as soft as a cloud, and the fillings aren't overly sweet. I would seriously come back for their baked goods alone. Hero Cha is currently still in their soft opening stage so some of their items on the menu aren't currently available yet, but they said their grand opening will be announced soon on their website. Definitely give this local business a try because their tapioca drinks and custard buns were great! Cheers!

    Menu

    I never leave reviews, but Hero Cha is so good I had to. It is easily my favorite boba spot. I've tried tons across the country, and nothing compares. The staff is always friendly, the service is quick, and the vibe is great. Their menu is massive: boba teas, coffees, food, and more. They are constantly adding new options. I've been coming here since they opened in January 2023, and my family and I have loved everything we've tried. Even when I'm home from college for just a few days, I make it a point to stop by. It is also a great place to hang out or get work done, with comfy seating and a relaxed atmosphere. Hero Cha is the best and I highly recommend it!

    This is the best boba place, they also have amazing food!! The mango sticky rice and Korean corn dogs are delicious!!! Every time I come in they have the friendliest staff! The inside is also soooo cute!!

    Finally got the chance to stop into Hero Cha after their remodel and it is pretty! The staff is so friendly and always smiling and made sure everything was perfect with our order. They had a December special which was a pretty good deal. For $10 we got a banh mi, egg roll and a medium size drink. The banh is made in store and it's sometimes hard to find a store that does that. Hero cha is also a bakery that has different bakes good. They also have catering options and if you let them know early enough they can bake other stuff for you. Overall a great experience and will be coming back soon!

    This place is close to home and we decided to stop and try it out. Super cute place. I loved the decor and plenty of seating. They had a big menu to choose from and some pastries as well. I got a passion fruit green tea with passion fruit jelly and a Thai tea biscuit. I like the regular boba better than the jelly but I wanted to try something different. Tea and biscuit were good. I will definitely stop by and try some of their other menu items. Service was quick and friendly. The barista offered me samples of the different jellies but I didn't try any.

    Drinks: Thai tea + mango frappe Buns: curry buns, Thai basil, Pandan custard and Hokkaido milk.
    Tram T.

    The drinks were AMAZING (Thai tea and mango frappe). Perfect sweetness without having the adjust anything. The owner was incredibly sweet and heated up the buns for us. I enjoyed the curry bun, I really liked the chunks of potatoes in there. I LOVED the pandan custard bun, soft pillowy bread filled with pandan custard, they don't skimp on the custard. Knocking down 1 star because the milk custard bun was too sweet. It was like a sugar bomb went off in my mouth. I think the Thai basil chicken bun was supposed to be spicy but I didn't get any spice at all. All in all, very happy to have this closer to home.

    My family loves this place! Delicious boba drinks and Vietnamese coffee. Friendly staff as well!

    Mango frappe and Thai tea
    Tinh T.

    Quick service, friendly and warm welcome. They have a decent amount of bakery selections for the area that they're in. I'm glad I don't have to go to Bellaire to get any Asian pastries since this one is extremely close by! They might not have a large selection like other bakeries in Bellaire but it's enough to eat those carvings. If you want to come here and study, it is nice and quiet and in a nice area of Friendswood so you should be at peace when you're studying. Mango frappe was awesome! You can really taste the fresh mangos and the sweetness is perfect. If you like Daboba's mango frappe then you'll like this one even more. Thai tea was great! I love my Thai tea but most Thai teas I get have this strange aftertaste and is overly sweet but this one fits my tastebuds really well. The Thai chicken and Thai Basil were great savory items and would highly recommend it if you're looking for a light snack. Would prefer a spicy option if available. She even heats it up if you want it warmed up. Pandan custard was great the filling was a lot when you bite into it and has that distinct pandan flavor. Not a fan of the Hokkaido milk custard. It was too sweet for me, if the condensed milk was toned down by 50% then I think that's where it would truly shine. All in all, I would definitely be coming back to support them and their business venture. Going to try the Japanese cheesecake on my next visit!

    Finally a place to get fried tofu at! Delicious food, pastries and drinks. Nice cozy place to work at or hang out.

    My second visit. It's definitely a calorie splurg. The milk rea has plenty of boba, which I love. The cheesecake is light and fluffy. Delicious and great service!

    Stopped by to try this new restaurant and loved everything we tried. My kids devoured the dumplings and egg rolls (said they were amazing!). Our milk teas and fruit tea were delicious. The staff was very pleasant and friendly. Will definitely be back!

Per usual, I check Yelp to see who has the best breakfast in the area. I was pretty disappointed with the ratings of several places so I was considering just going to grab Whataburger. However the main photo of this donut case caught my attention. It looked so delicious and the 4.9 star rating got me excited to try it. My only complaint is they only have 2 designates parking spots. (There is more parking across the parking lot, so it's not really a huge complaint..) It was clean, the donuts were like sugary pillows, the bacon egg and cheese croissant was fresh, the cake donut was perfect. Customer service was fantastic! The drink cases were full of options. They also make flavored coffees and as I was leaving I saw straws for bubble tea! If you want the best options, get there early. If you don't see what you are wanting, ask if it's in the back. When I was looking at the croissants I guess the owner saw my dismay at there only being sausage in the case. She asked, "do you want bacon? I'll make it for you.." of course I told her yes. So she went to the back and made me a bacon egg and cheese croissant. The bacon was thick and cooked to perfection. Everything tastes so fresh. If you are thinking you want donuts, pull in and get the donuts. You won't regret it. Your kids will want this donut place from now on. Your co-workers will love you when you show up with a dozen mixed donuts. Treat yo'self.

Every drink was thoughtfully made and looked just as good as it tasted. The presentation is beautiful, making it one of those places where you almost don't want to drink it because it's so pretty. We tried several drinks, and each one was unique. Our absolute favorites were Purple Rain--light, refreshing, and paired perfectly with lychee jelly--and Taro Ocean, which put a fun twist on the traditional taro drink by adding graham crackers at the bottom. That little addition was such a surprise and honestly made the drink unforgettable. You can tell the menu is crafted with creativity, and it makes you want to come back to try everything. All the drinks are customizable. Service was quick, and overall ordering was very easy. Overall, Happie Boba Shop nails it across the board: delicious and inventive drinks, a clean and comfortable environment, and easy access. I'll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, refreshing, and satisfying boba experience.

There's some muffins on display, but there's no prices on it and I was tempted to pick one. But I held off since it's too early for some sugar buzz. The price is reasonable. They do only have one size though. But the quality of the coffee is superb. I'll come back again tomorrow for an espresso macchiato and maybe one of those muffins.
