This is such a cute It's Boba Time! It shares a space with Yoshinoya, so you can grab a sweet treat and a nice hot meal too if you're feeling Japanese food. It's kind of funny walking in and seeing the difference in decor between It's Boba Time and the Yoshinoya right next to it but I like it. My orders have always come out right, and thankfully this location also carries treats. That's a plus because not every It's Boba Time carries macarons or other pastries. The place is nice and cool, there's plenty of seating, and it's a comfortable spot to sit down and relax for a bit. This place gets a solid 5/5 from me! read more

This place is one of my favor spots. You can never go wrong with "It's Boba Time" I don't care the location, it seems to be always consistent. But yeah, the AV is the AV. Got my drink yesterday and it's still perfect . Service at this location is okay. The place looks clean and somewhat welcoming. The drinks taste Fresh. Anyway, I'm driving, sipping and chewing on my drink ...lol... Enjoy your day read more

Fast and friendly service! The shop is spacious, with plenty of tables where you can relax and enjoy your boba. The air conditioning is excellent, making it a perfect spot to cool off during hot summer days. My go-to drink is the coconut strawberry smoothie with strawberry popping boba, great choice if you're not sure what to order.The mango crepe was a bit disappointing because it lacked a strong mango flavor. But, try it for yourself. read more

Amazing service and amazing drinks. This location has such an amazing vibe and the fact that drinks come out quick is a plus. I always opt for the galaxy iced tea. I've also had the Thai tea which is amazing. I love that their boba is not hard and isn't disgusting. Overall such a great boba spot. read more

One of many few boba chains I actually enjoy going to. I was actually surprised to see them up here in Lancaster, or boba shops in general like ShareTea and Boba Cove. They have a variety of options from smoothies, milk teas to ice bowls. I personally usually just order their milk teas and smoothies. One thing I would point out is their mainly tea drinks are not as strong as the one down in Los Angeles. You'll probably have better luck with ShareTea. However in terms of milk teas and smoothies, they do well in those department. My personal favorite is the Taro, Red Bean Pistachio, and Jasmine Milk Tea. I also love getting those in smoothie version as well. Also, they are adjacent to a Yoshinoya so you can get your drink and meal in one visit. Seating and parking is plentiful as well. read more

I have tried every single Boba place in the AV and Boba Time is by far my favorite! The way other people go to Starbucks all the time is me and Boba Time. I like that I can order on the app and show up. Half the time they don't even ask me anything. They just hand me my drink as soon as I go through the doors. My husband is used to hearing me ask "you know what sounds good right now?" And he answers. "boba time?" Our favorite is the Passion Orange iced tea. I also like the brown sugar milk tea. In fact, it's been a whole day so I guess I'll go order one now. read more

Brand new beautiful store! If you're looking for a trendy boba spot that serves delicious drinks, you've come to the right place! Thank you for opening up in Lancaster - for those who had to drive all the way out to Palmdale, this location is for you! Same delicious variety of drinks as their other location! My favorites are the original milk teas but if you want to get crazy, you can try their out of the box offerings! Staff are polite, friendly, and helpful so if you can't decide on a drink, don't be afraid to ask! Lots of parking located in the back of the complex. Come on by and support your local small business! read more

It's boba time is always an easy place to fulfill your boba cravings. They have tons of different teas, slushes, smoothies and milks to choose from. This one is located together with a Yoshinoya. FYI the drive thru is only for YOSHINOYA, as we've tried to order boba before hahah. You order inside and they call your number when it's done just like the other locations. Some of my favorites include rose milk tea, pistachio frappe and taro. It's boba time never fails to satisfy my cravings. It's not the highest quality but flavor is good. read more

Rose Milk Tea with extra boba light ice just hits the spot!! Don't be afraid to ask the staff to recommend something to you! The menu is large and there are sooo many choices I can see someone getting decision fatigue. What's even more amazing is all the milk teas are totally dairy free which makes my vegan heart flutter a little bit. Go get some!

Not bad, not great. The lychee fruit tea was a little disappointing in that the lychee hits seemed thin and more coconut flaky than chunky lychee like I'm used to, which means that they don't have a lot of flavor. The flavor of the tea was fine. I'd like to try it again. The macarons were thicker than I'm used to, but SO good with the crunchy shell and soft insides. And the flavors! I had mint chocolate and also coffee flavor. This would def keep me coming back. read more

The customer service has always been professional. I've tried this spot more than 15 times, and have tried a range of their smoothies, and refreshers with boba. Always satisfied with the texture, taste and quality. They've always got macaroons that are pretty good. The price is reasonable. One thing that could improve is maybe cleanliness but it does get pretty busy. It's not terrible, it's passable all in all 4/5 place to go. read more

I get it's a small location but what's the point of having the self-order machines if the staff seems overwhelmed anyways (they don't take your orders here, unless you have to ask?) In the past I've come and they've had some younger folks working here (seemed like they didn't care about their job much). They were at least faster than whoever this newer, older lady is. It's only ever one lady working on her own every time I come in. She's always reading the recipes to make the drinks which slows her down a ton. Doesn't know the recipes I guess... Today I even downloaded the app knowing this place takes long. I ordered ahead at 12:03, says it should've been ready at 12:18pm. I came in at 12:20 and my drink wasn't ready. However, she was working on another online order (a girl who came to pick up at the same time as me) and another person walked in and ordered soon after. She's backed up but it still shouldn't take this long for boba... I asked around 12:28pm getting impatient because I have to go back to work if my order was ready since she gave the other girl part of her order. She asked what it was and I explained it was an online order that should've been ready 10 minutes ago. She told me she barely received it and I told her that wasn't true, I placed the order at 12:03. She continued trying to play it off and said she just got my order and that she was working on another online order. My order wasn't ready until 12:38, 20 minutes past the time it was supposed to be. When I explained that I ordered ahead of time because I have somewhere to be, she gave me an attitude. Disheartening that she couldn't just own up to not having my order ready. She ended up upgrading my drink to an XL instead of a L but it wasn't really worth it in the time I waited. It was also very sweet when I ordered 50% rather than 75 or 100. Also, the online ordering is useless because they take long regardless. If you want quick service like boba cafes should be, this isn't the place. The only reason I give them two stars is because the drinks taste decent (most of the time).

The atmosphere is quiet and relaxed, with plenty of spaced out tables (so I didn't crammed in with tons of other people like Starbucks does sometimes). Parking is ample and around back. This was my second time here (I came back remembering how good my coffee was the first time). I was hungry, but wasn't sure what I wanted to order, so the very kind man behind the counter made a couple of recommendations (and it was so, so helpful!) This ham, egg, and cheese bagel sandwich was SO good. The bagels are handmade (and enormous!) They were so soft and delicious! They added tomato per my request and didn't even charge me extra. The coffee was cold and refreshing on this hot summer day, and it was so well balanced and not overly sweet, which I appreciate! I will continue coming back, for sure, and highly recommend you do too!!

Yes! Finally, there's an It's Boba Time in Lancaster! I've been waiting for one to come through this side of town. Before this location, I frequented the one in Palmdale. The vibe in this store is so different from the Palmdale one. When you walk it's bright and new. It feels like one of those trendy coffee and bubble tea hangouts in the LA area - a very modern and cool hangout vibe. Best part! - The drinks here maintain the same high-quality standard I usually experience with their drinks. What also makes this place great are the employees, I asked for a suggestion from Justin and Jean to try something different and they were really great at telling me more about menu items. In my most recent visit I had the following: - Dragon Fruit Bowl with granola, strawberries, blueberries, bananas, coconut flakes and I added almond butter. - I know most people are fans of the acai bowl, but this is a really great contender. It's super refreshing and not too sweet. The best kind of bite is when you can get all the fruit, almond butter, and dragon fruit in one scoop. This will be my go-to for a while! - Caramel Macchiato with almond milk and coffee jelly - I'll probably never go to a Starbs ever again. This coffee drink is so freaking good, I've been ordering one almost every other day. It's addicting in oh so many wonderful ways. The espresso is top-notch and the coffee jelly is a great replacement for the boba, also I think it gives me another caffeine boost. Parking: It's an open commercial lot. Plenty of parking. If you don't find parking in the front you can head to the back and enter through the Yoshinoya side. read more

Poor customer service and a disappointing experience overall. The drinks were sloppily prepared and lacked the quality and attention to detail you would expect from a good boba shop. The staff was not particularly welcoming or attentive, which only added to the frustration. With so many excellent boba tea options in the area, there are plenty of places that offer better drinks and a much better customer experience. Unfortunately, this location did not meet the basics in service, and I will not be returning. read more

I come to boba time in both palmdale & lancaster pretty frequently, and the drinks are usually fantastic as well as their macarons :) sometimes the fruit tea doesnt have the sliced fruit it's supposed to have in it, but its not that big of a deal and still has flavor. they have a pretty good selection of macarons as well as seasonal flavors. Lys is always super helpful at the lancaster location! read more

Alike all the other workers there she's kind and has amazing customer service skills. Really! Ask this girl for a drink suggestion and she'll give you the best boba drink you've ever had! read more

I came in for the very first time and had no idea what to order, however the cashier Liseth was such a sweet soul and helped to recommend me a Galaxy Iced Tea! I absolutely loved the drink and was extremely thankful for how nice and helpful she was. The entire atmosphere was really comforting and the ambience was amazing. Would come again!! read more

Drinks are all well-made and employees are all sweet and kind! I usually tend to come in late at night because I go after I get off work, but the cashiers are always polite and welcoming and give me time when I can't decide on a drink (they have a huge menu!) It's also nice that your first scoop of boba is free c: Would recommend! read more

really fast service and incredibly friendly staff, Melody N was very helpful and patient with us. The place was clean and it made the experience a lot better, the drink I got was a green apple slush with mango boba. It was made infront of me and came out quickly, the boba was great itself. I will be coming back soon! read more

The drinks/ ice cream are amazing. I love taking my son here for an after school treat. I am scared to try the little boba balls, so I always opt out of those. The employees are a bunch of high school kiddos. So with that being said you can't really ask for customer service to be top-notch. read more

I even called her boss at the other location to let them know the reason why their shop is empty because of customer service like that. if you hire employees that don't even greet or even take orders, how do you expect to keep going or stay open? Can't say the food was great or anything, but the store was completely empty. The service sucked. It looked clean, but other than that I can't say much.

I get it's a small location but what's the point of having the self-order machines if the staff seems overwhelmed anyways (they don't take your orders here, unless you have to ask?) In the past I've come and they've had some younger folks working here (seemed like they didn't care about their job much). They were at least faster than whoever this newer, older lady is. It's only ever one lady working on her own every time I come in. She's always reading the recipes to make the drinks which slows her down a ton. Doesn't know the recipes I guess... Today I even downloaded the app knowing this place takes long. I ordered ahead at 12:03, says it should've been ready at 12:18pm. I came in at 12:20 and my drink wasn't ready. However, she was working on another online order (a girl who came to pick up at the same time as me) and another person walked in and ordered soon after. She's backed up but it still shouldn't take this long for boba... I asked around 12:28pm getting impatient because I have to go back to work if my order was ready since she gave the other girl part of her order. She asked what it was and I explained it was an online order that should've been ready 10 minutes ago. She told me she barely received it and I told her that wasn't true, I placed the order at 12:03. She continued trying to play it off and said she just got my order and that she was working on another online order. My order wasn't ready until 12:38, 20 minutes past the time it was supposed to be. When I explained that I ordered ahead of time because I have somewhere to be, she gave me an attitude. Disheartening that she couldn't just own up to not having my order ready. She ended up upgrading my drink to an XL instead of a L but it wasn't really worth it in the time I waited. It was also very sweet when I ordered 50% rather than 75 or 100. Also, the online ordering is useless because they take long regardless. If you want quick service like boba cafes should be, this isn't the place. The only reason I give them two stars is because the drinks taste decent (most of the time).

The two workers there were busy making drinks and weren't taking orders at the register. There was a line for the kiosk. Got the extra large Matcha Smoothie for $8.50. The large size was $7.50, but the extra large size looked significantly larger for only a dollar more. They add 13 cents for convenience fee. Got the recommended 50% sweetness. Took about 10 minutes for our drinks. The drink was super sweet at 50%. Had to water down the drink for it to taste descent. Will not be returning since there's no indoor seating and they make their drinks way too sweet.
