Their tea is refreshing. There's always a long line to order so be prepared to expect a wait. I love their fruit teas. They now have golden bunny donuts. They are a must have. They don't have much fill options but still delish. read more

As someone that visits Taiwan annually just for bubble tea and food, I have expectations for tea. Taiwan is where bubble tea is from. There is always a huge line here, and the drinks are mid and overly sweet. Even when ordering less sugar option. People must be desperate for tea or just not able to take the escalators directly downstairs to the slightly better, but still mid, other tea shop. read more

They have vegan options in the form of alternative milks. If you're vegan be sure to ask which drinks can be made dairy free, just to be safe. I got the taro drink with strawberry popping boba. Never had taro before but this was great- tasted like milk from a bowl of fruit cereal (this was a good thing) They had very friendly staff that were available to answer questions and give recommendations. The wait was surprisingly fast, too. Overall I'd recommend this place for anyone who wants milk tea/boba! read more

Located inside the Mall of Georgia on the second level. They have a variety of teas and coffee. I got the Dream of Butterfly with Boba and it was delicious and refreshing. This drink doesn't have any caffeine which is a plus for me. I've also had the Dalgona Brown sugar, Sweet Cloud Green Tea, Honey Milk Tea, and several of the Ice blended drink options here which are also good. If you're in the area, you definitely have to stop by here. read more

So I'm wondering what's in that drink. The drink was so good it took me less than 10 mins to drink it while I was driving home. I really could not stop drinking it. Kokee Tea is located in the mall of Georgia on the 2nd floor close to Macy's. So I would park on the Macy's side. This seems like the closes entrance. I was there on on a Thursday evening. I have heard so many great things about this tea so I decided to try it. There was one person working behind the register. She had a mask on which was great. There were 2 people in line ahead of me. The young lady working got us all taken care pretty fast. I decided to go with purple love because it does not contain caffeine. It was good. Can't wait to go back and try something else. read more

Drinks - 2* I've tried multiple things from here and the boba is average and the flavors and presentation is boring. Service - 3* They try their best but they are just way too busy. Ambiance - N/A Nowhere to sit so N/A but waiting in such long lines at the mall might be points off for many. The line gets so long you may just turn around when you see it. Basically try any other boba place. Kokee feels mass produced for me but the business can't fail since they are located inside the mall. read more

I was worried about the taste but they did not disappoint. The taste was smooth and not too sweet. The only drawback is I am told they use Jams instead of real fruit and vegetables. Would try it again. read more

good taro boba tea. LONG WAIT. prices are OK. There was a line but they took way longer than they should have. I asked for less ice and they clearly don't listen to instructions. They also wrote that they ran out of milk and ran out of a lot of stuff when I got up to the line, luckily, they had taro milk tea, the actual taro milk tea with Boba was good, a little in the sweeter side but good. Everything else was OK. They seem to be a little understaffed, but they need to have more efficient system in my opinion. read more

Kokee tea is what I like to purchase when my kids and I like to spend a long day at the Mall of Georgia. Petting dogs at Petland, the train, carousel, and kisses from those lovely little fishes next door to the pet store, and VR. You get thirsty after all that! I like their blended flavor and some of the flavors are original. read more

I asked for a mango smoothie and received a cup of ice with blended milk. I asked for 75% sweet and it seemed like they didn't add no flavor at all to the drink. I asked the young lady to remake it for me because I didn't enjoy it at all she said no. Apparently I "drank" more than half the drink. I asked for a refund she also said no. Also, Very rude of her response when I asked for her manager. She said she didn't have to provide her name. read more

Fastest way to get to the boba store is to park between Dillards and Macy's. Even though the line was long, we were able to get our drinks fairly quickly (under 10 mins). Personally did not try the coffee milk tea and thirsty joe, but our friends said it was good. Thai tea: it tasted more creamy than the Thai tea I usually get. It's not bad...but not the most authentic tasting either. Matcha latte: it was pretty average, the boba was nice and chewy. Sweet cloud cold brew: tasted similar to a brown sugar milk tea but with coffee. The only two drinks that were finished was the sweet cloud cold brew and thirsty joe. Would I come just to get the drinks? Nope But if you are at the mall then it is good enough. read more

This is not the first time we are back, they have variety of drink options. But so far I haven't find my favorite drinks. Service was friendly, but super slow. They have a long lines, it's not because they are busy but the tea making takes too long. It's an in and out drink spot, no place for you to sit down and enjoy the ambiance or accompany. But it's definitely a stop you should take for a drink if you have patience to wait. read more

Awful service so rude, AND stingy! Stay away, their bubble tea is nasty and they won't even get free water.

It is located at upper level, close to Macy's. We ordered a Strawberry milk tea with honey boba and a Dragonfruit slush. The boba was not good - it just a ball of dough - not chewy, no flavor. The strawberry milk tea was very sweet and tasted artificial. The dragonfruit slush was a little better but also tasted artificial. The flavors were a little off from what the real fruits actually taste like. I paid $15 (including tip and tax). The customer service was really good - super friendly and fast with the milk tea. Three stars for the drinks and five stars for the customer services. read more

Lychee ice slush is awesome and my girlfriend got the Oreo milk tea and added boba. The lychee is really refreshing and she said the milk tea was really good. Staff was funny and nice. Will be back. Was really surprised by the reviews here. Give it a try! read more

The taro milk tea with tapioca here was one of the worst I have ever tried. I wish i could have thrown it out, but for the price I paid I had to drink it. If you like Taro from Pearl's tea run away from this place...it has a really strange aftertaste. The first and last time I'll be here. read more

My first time here. The line wasn't long and customer service was great! I ordered the dragon drink. It was sooo good! It reminded me of those drinks I used to have when I was younger. Will be coming back! read more

Kokee Tea - Dragon drink - Desserts Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Kokee tea really is a hit or miss for boba. A lot of people tend to like it but more tend to dislike it. I am very neutral about it; I've had both good and bad experiences. It is located near Macys on the second floor at the Mall of Georgia so your best option would be to park near there. It Is not a place where you can sit and talk with your friends, it's more of a grab and go like all the other places at the mall. The customer service isn't bad at all, but it also isn't the best. One time I went with my friend, and they usually get the Oreo shaken expresso, but this time they got the brown sugar shaken expresso. My friend tasted it and didn't like it. They said it tasted like pure milk. My friend nicely asked if it was possible to just add more brown sugar, the baristas didn't even have to remake it. One of the baristas did offer to remake it, but then the cashier that helped my friend interrupted and said, "usually when I make it I have to wait for the flavoring to just sit." This did throw us off guard though since the cashier didn't even make the drink. Someone else had made the drink and it was handed to my friend before they finished paying. We just thanked them and walked away. After like 20 minutes the drink still tasted the same, and my friend clearly didn't like it. I asked if they wanted to go back and tell them, but they said no because one, they hate confrontation; and two they were scared they would get told no because they had drunk almost half of the drink. I even offered to go back and ask for them, but my friend said no, so we just decided to leave it at that. I have had good experiences here though; the staff is usually very sweet and understanding. A good experience I've had here is when a group of friends and I went to the mall and decided to get some boba. We decided to stop at kokee tea, since that's the only place in the mall where my friend likes to get their boba, and one of our friends got a drink they didn't really like. My friend mentioned this to us, and the barista happened to overhear by accident. He then offered to make her another drink, which was extremely nice of him since he didn't have to do that at all. We were extremely thankful for this. The customer service is honestly just a hit or a miss. You just have to try and get lucky to go on a day where they're in a good mood or there's nice baristas. The drinks here are honestly not bad at all. They can be good sometimes. My personal favorite from Kokee tea is the purple love which is the Taro milk tea. My least favorite that I've tried would have to be the matcha milk tea, which I love matcha and have tried at many different locations. A drink I would say is neutral is the coffee milk tea. If you like coffee and have never tried boba before I would say this is a pretty good drink to start with. Kokee tea doesn't only sell boba though, they sell other things like: cute little keychains, milks, waters, macaroons, and other treats. Overall I would say that if you've never tried boba before kokee tea is definitely not the place to try your first one at. The drinks and customer service are very bipolar. There are other locations at the mall like Ding Tea which is located on the second floor by the movie theater. In my opinion they have better drinks, customer service, and they also have desserts which are delicious. read more

I would give 2 stars if I had not tried the macarons. My friend ordered some macarons, so I was able to try them. I think the earl gray and salted caramel were my favorites out of the 5 I tried. I ordered the oolong milk tea with boba and it was such a disappointment. Imagine a cup of water with a light splash of regular oolong milk tea. This is what it was. Very disappointing. I wish I had read all these reviews before I had decided to try this place out. Boba in terms of texture and sweetness was okay though. This place has a lot of potential because it's cute, clean, and the cashier was pretty nice. I just knew in my mind I'd never go back, so I didnt tell them my feedback. Now I'm thinking maybe I should have, but maybe that's just how they make it. Will not order oolong milk tea here again. read more

For those of us who are "boba snobs" Kokee Tea is nothing new. Still, it's always nice to check out new boba places to see how they compare to the established boba shops in Duluth. I've had boba from Kokee tea before at Sugarloaf Mills but compared to the branch at Sugarloaf Mills, I would say the Mall of Georgia branch is just ok. Also, the Mall of Georgia does not serve the Butterfly tea or the cheese crema; I really think they should take it off the menu here so we don't get our hopes up. The first time I tried Kokee here at MOG a few weeks ago, I got the strawberry mojito because at Sugarloaf, it was really good! But I was super disappointed because here at MOG, it tasted like water with a hint of strawberry. My friend got the Tiger Milk tea and it tasted like water. We were super disappointed and vowed never to come back but I decided to give this place a second chance. This second time, I got the Rose from San Francisco and it was ok. Nothing mindblowing and amazing that it would be a favorite but it didn't taste like water so that was a relief. I'm glad that there is another boba shop in Mall of Georgia besides Bubbleology and I know they are new to the Buford area but I hope they can improve on consistency and flavor. TLDR - I would stick with what I already know. read more

Extremely sweet. No available adjustment to sugar or ice levels like other boba shops. Nothing very unique. Drawn in by the promise of jasmine green tea only for it to be drench in syrups and lose its flavor altogether. If you're into candy sweet bobas this is for you. But this wasn't my cup of tea. read more

Same feels as Miss Esther there who was first to review. I got the Mango Passionfruit Green Tea and with only 25 percent sweetness you'd think you'd just get more of the green tea flavor or hit with a "whoa yea it's green tea", but really it just tasted like water and then they added the fruit syrup. The honey boba was fresh which did taste good. This was my first time trying Kokee Tea so I wasn't really sure what to expect and so I stuck with something safe. I'll give it a go again but probably at a different location. read more

On 7/10/2020 I got the golden harvest with honey boba, my drink was really watery, no flavor of oolong, the white girl working there was rushing even tho there was barely anyone there and she mixed my drink with some milk from the previous order. This drink is barely drinkable and I spent $4.07 on it. The only thing that I liked was the honey boba. I would not recommend this place again if some white girl is working there and making your order. Previous times I've went it has been good this time it is different, I am disappointed in this kokee tea place. read more

I like coming here on the weekends however I hope this place is clean cause they ain't got no gloves honey. One of the girls who was on the register was really professional but her being a nice person turned around to help her colleague who was the only one making the drinks that day and you can tell he was overwhelmed so she jumped in to help which is sweet only problem is she dug right in the ice without washing her hands after handeling money. I said what in the Ebola corona cross contamination is going on?. And trust and believe wether they make a mistake or not them snitches not returning ANYTHING. I don't care if you find an alligator in yo drink they gon be like YOU put that alligator in there and we ain't retuning nothing. PERIODT. I remember one time I ordered this canteloup flavored tea or whatever that green one is and child that thang was so nasty I almost slap myself with a biscuit but child betta luck next time cause wether you like yo drink or naw you finna drink it cause they not finna try to make it right cause in they opinion it's yo fault anyway for ordering a nasty drink. Period. And that coffee one is ok but not if you lactose intorent cause child that thang had my stomach BLOWIN up when I got home my grandma was so offended she left out the house cause that thang was so stank it was disrespectful. Period Manager lady can be a lil rude at times but maybe she going through something y'all idk. read more

The worst !!!!! I use to work here & the manager and the owners wife are very rude & complain about the smallest stuff. They both don't even know how to make teas/ice blends. That's why customers are always complaining about the taste, the sweetness, and how it's always watered down. I wouldn't recommend coming here for bubble tea & I wouldn't recommend working here either!!! Even the prices are ridiculous!!!! The worst bubble tea shop EVER! read more

Disappointing first experience with Keokee Tea. I ordered the taro boba tea. It was barely ok. WAY too sweet and the boba were not individual pearls but two massive unappealing gooey globs. The server was kind even if she wasn't paying attention to the globby bad boba. I might give them another try but I will be paying much closer attention to what they are doing as they prepare my drink. read more

Sorry have to give this tea shop 1 star. Wasted 11$ for 2 drinks couldn't even know how they taste so horrible. I got mine Oolong Milk tea and my hubby fruit tea. However they both tasted like chemical smell with sugar. Boba is hard, cannot even chew. Price is okay but compared to KungFu Tea or even the smaller boba tea spot at the elevator this place is not worth to try. Save yourself 5$ and get a Starbuck. I honestly regretted my purchase and will never ever come back! read more

I got a drink without bobo personally because I don't like boba but the drink was good. I personally wouldn't order it again because it was too sweet. I did buy macarons and they were delicious. There were many flavors. read more

Drinks are very tasty and juicy. Very clean. The boba is the best especially the popping boba.

Worst service ever! The menu isn't clear, so I asked to confirm whether a particular drink pictured with boba did indeed include boba. The cashier said yes but there was an option to have the drink without boba if preferred. I confirmed with a hard yes that I would like boba. When I got my drink, it had no boba! I asked where the boba was and a horrible woman said I didn't order any. When I asked her to add the boba anyway, she demanded $1. I said the boba only costs $0.50, but she said with tax it would be $1! I finally gave up and was ready to leave with my drink when she continued to scream and demand $1 even after I wasn't interested. I took my drink and walked out. At the end of the day, it wasn't about 0.50 vs $1, the management was awful, embarrassing, and I will not be returning here nor do I recommend supporting such a business read more

Rose from San Francisco is the most delicious tea I've ever had! The staff are super friendly and orders are processed quickly. You are missing out if you don't stop at this place on the 2nd floor of Mall of Georgia! I have a new favorite tea place! read more

Smoothie I got was very good but only one young lady waiting on customers and making drinks. Older woman, presumably the manager, was there but went into the back & did not return to help. I noticed 3 customers leave just in the few minutes I was there. Since the employees seem to be young, the manager should make a point to stay visible in case they need help. read more

Oolong is my favorite tea, but DO NOT get oolong here!!! Legitly tastes like bitter water

This is the worst place I've ever worked in my entire life. I would never recommend this shop to buy your tea here and why come here when you can have Kung Fu Tea? The management is so bad I would never recommend anyone to work here unless you want to have a mental breakdown and be screamed for making the tiniest mistake. The owner even tried to take money from me because we had to give a refund. This is not the place for tea. read more

I love the boba here. I am a regular who comes about once a week. usually the workers (i think the owner and young man) are fine as they are quick. BUT today a new worker was extremely slow. that's understandable as he may be new, but when he made the drinks, he would not call the number, just leaving it on the counter. I just ordered one drink so it wasn't like he was waiting to make other drinks. It become watery and he forgot to include boba. I was disappointed by today's experience. read more

I usually get their Classic Thai Tea with honey boba. Their honey boba's texture is really good. I wish they'd offer smaller sizes.

I have only gotten the classic Thai tea with honey boba and it's usually not too bad. Tastes a little watered down sometimes but overall is good. Service however is always very slow, even when there is minimal customers. Takes about 20 minutes to get one drink read more

Bubble tea is my favorite but I would not go back to this place. When it comes to getting your drink it takes a really long time and sometimes they overfill where it spills when you insert the straw. Also the menu isn't clear. I ordered a oolong tea and thought it would be a regular tea with some sweetness but when I received it, it was a milk tea I was a little pissed and confused because it was listed under the tea section and not under the milk tea section. I didn't return it because it took 30 minutes for me to receive my drink. Will I go back maybe but will I recommend this place to anyone very unlikely. read more
