    Tea time after dance practice!
    Ashley W.

    I love me some Kung Fu Tea! I was so happy To see that they had all the flavors that I've known to enjoy from seeing Kung Fu teas in both New York City and Chicago Illinois. We always have good service in any case, and it has been hot this summer, so it was a welcomed suggestion from friends after our dance class. This location in Kenny center is smaller, but it doesn't stop people from hanging inside while we wait for our bubble tea. This location has mobile ordering so you can pick up your order on the spot. Now they serve sooo many people so please be patient. 5 stars for always getting my favorite drink, the Rosehip Lemonade right every time. I do regular ice and 50% sugar. Tastes perfect!

    posting as a caution. i went to this location on 9/01 to get something to drink and there was a bug in my drink, at the bottom of the cup along with the mango popping pearls. i brought it up with the bottom of my straw to get a better look and yep, that is a bug. i did get a refund at the end of the day and the workers were nice about it, which is to be expected because, i mean, hello-- but still gross. i won't be coming back to this establishment again due to this.

    Drinks are good but the service wasn't too friendly. Maybe because we went in the last hour , either way doesn't excuse the fact that they were rude. Not once but twice.

    Lychee jasmine green tea with Mango popping boba

    I have been going to the gym next to this place for 5 years now, and I had never gone in until tonight! It's always busy, but very efficient. We ordered at the kiosk and only waited a few minutes after we paid. I had a lychee jasmine tea with Mango popping Boba and it really hit the spot tonight! First off, I love lychee anything, so we were already having a good start. The popping Boba were a great addition- I don't like then super chewy and they made my drink fruity and refreshing. I chose half sweet, and it was just right! You can adjust your sweet both up or down to your taste or mood. I'll for sure be back, especially if it stays this hot!

    Good environment, easy to park. The drinks were awesome! The only thing was...it was a little bit confused when getting the drinks. When everyone was busy making drinks then we had to go through every single drink to find out which one was ours. There were like 15 drinks ready for pickup or delivery. Other than that, all good!

    YA KNO ITS GOOD WHEN LIKE 95% of patrons are asian. cus the only above average boba place in columbus alongside with vivis but vivis lowkey not as accessible as kungfu. i say no to chatime. no. THEYRE A CRIME. DO NOT. GO. TO CHATIME. GO HERE. ok i've been here like a million times but only have one picture from kungfu how strange. anyways. i always get the mango green tea, 120% sweet and i love that it COMES with like lychee jelly so i mad appreciate that. BUT kungfu tea needs to get themselves together in terms of brown sugar. please don't mix brown sugar and like coco powder????? CHOCOLATE AND BROWN SUGAR??? like just have brown sugar on its own. UGH. i was so mad at this drink, i lost it. so if you want just brown sugar boba? go to vivis. but like good boba? go here. it good. p.s. their egg tarts are bomb dot com. get them.

    I always come here. Always clean, people are super nice and the drinks are always delicious.

    Corgis + bubble tea!
    Emily B.

    This place was packed on a Saturday evening--with good reason--they sling a yummy bubble tea! Tucked back in little squared shopping center off of Kenny & Henderson, you'll find this hip little bubble tea spot. It's a franchise, but with a few tips for the American bubble tea novice, their menu is easily digestible. So yes, the menu is pretty deep on offerings so for the newbie it could probably be overwhelming. If you're new to bubble tea, I'd suggest a flavored black or green tea, sweetener (if inclined) + bubbles (solid tapioca pearls also called bobas) or flavored exploding bubbles (poppable in your mouth--kind of like a "Gushers" bubble with a flavored syrup). You can't go wrong ordering this combo! This is a good place to start and enjoy your bubble tea adventures. As busy as it was when we visited, I'd bet I'm not the only one out there who believes this.

    Such good bubble tea! But their choices don't stop at the regular tapioca pearls. You can customize your beverage almost any way you please from more sugar to less ice etc. Their tea ranges are great and even their fruity beverages are refreshing. If you do go be prepared for a wait, but only because it's typically busy (the downside of being amazing) but they fling drinks out crazy fast so honestly for the amount of business they get I'd expect an even longer wait. Its definitely worth it. And they even have an online order option. Another plus is the staff. They're incredibly nice and helpful. I've already become a regular customer

    Kung my praises

    I don't like beans in my drinks, not even MUNG FU If you brought the tea, it's already been BRUNG FU If you're seventeen, sorry bae, but you're too YOUNG FU But if you want Lemon Black Tea, you come to KUNG FU! It makes some of the rivals taste like eating cow DUNG FU It's at the top of the ladder, while you're on the lowest RUNG FU You'll love if you're easy going, even highly STRUNG FU So if you want a Lemon Black Tea, you come to KUNG FU I tasted it and screamed so loud that I collapsed a LUNG FU I carried on screaming and sounded like Angus YOUNG FU They played Sting on the radio, but I'm already STUNG FU By the wondrous Lemon Black Tea they serve at KUNG FU I went to the toilet, opened Snapchat, then I SUNG FU Came back, took my pants off, and the girls yelled "HUNG FU!" In walked Barbie and immediately I'm SPRUNG FU And you should come and get a Lemon Black Tea from KUNG FU! WHAT What to get: Lemon Black Tea With Tapioca! Or: All the fruit teas are pretty good, especially if you go off menu and get black tea! Or: Go crazy and order your fruit teas with the very strong Oolong! Or in winter: Any of the hot milk teas! Which milk teas are best: Honey Oolong! Oolong! Maybe Taro or Almond! The Kung Fu Fighters are one of my favourite bands. Their biggest hit was "Learn To Fu" but I also really love "Ever-oolong." I was happy that this Kung Fu Tea served me only a few minutes before closing. They have the same owner as the one which I love obsessively - way up in the north suburbs of Columbus just outside the loop. The employees here are really nice too and the drinks taste very similar. Good Boba and a little sweeter and more lemony than usual - but altogether really good. I'm a big fan. Definitely two of the better Kung Fu Tea locations I've ever been to and they both sell Egg Custard Tarts - which most places do not. This KFT on the second visit was not quite a stellar as the first - only because they were nearly closing and were happy to serve me and very busy - in fact there was nowhere for me to sit because half the cafe had the chairs turned upside down already and the other half was taken. But I wasn't planning to stay anyway so no big deal. I was only a little bit put off by the fact that they charged me for Boba and then gave me an obviously smaller portion than normal - probably because they were running out at the end of the night. If you can only give someone a half order of tapioca then don't charge them. That would be the normal and fair thing to do. If you really want to be anal about it then charge them half. But as usual they charged the full price and give the half portion. However - despite this - I will stick with five stars because a lot of locations wouldn't serve anyone at all 10 minutes before closing. And that they have a working bathroom! Even if it isn't the nicest. So if you think your life is now over And your gf won't let you disrobe her And you ask what I think Just come get a drink Kung Fu's Lemon Black Tea with Boba!

    How do you Kung Fu? What's your favorite flavor & sugar level? Kung Fu bubble teas are delicious! Pick a flavor, and a topping. Don't forget the sugar level - wow! Order: Med. Taro slush, bubbles and 70% sugar. Absolutely delicious! @ohiofoodlover

Situated in a cue lil food court next to Dayou, Mr Tea thrives on me being too lazy to go somewhere else to get a sweet treat when I'm like knees deep in spicy noods. That said, I did actually very much like the fresh mango slush with cheese macchiato. Even though mangoes are nawt in season, the drink appeared to have real mango chunks in addition to mango jelly. Very refreshing! However, my second encounter with a tea-forward drink was more disappointing. I decided to give the osmanthus latte a try but it tasted quite watered down, almost like they maybe use milk instead of a creamer? The osmanthus flavor was also not strong enough. Overall, a decent place to grab fruity boba if you are in the vicinity but it wouldn't be my first choice if you are looking for tea.

Extensive drink options ranging from milk teas to fruit teas and a variety of toppings. Pricing is a bit steep (comparable to San Francisco prices but in Ohio) but right now they're offering a BOGO 50% off! Good tea flavor, soft boba pearls, definitely a must-visit when grocery shopping at Dayou.

    I RARELY give 5 star ratings. But everything about this place was just right!…read more The drinks/food: Let's start with the scent of doughy & crispiness in the air from the moment I walked in. Must have been from the waffles & although that's not something I'd normally consider ordering, one whiff & I was craving them sooo bad! Not to mention that the prospect of exciting versions of them (like Pandan or Ube) made me want to ruin my dinner plans. So after I gained some self control, I ordered what seems like the healthiest & lighest drink up there. It just happened to also have all the flavors of things I adore. The Bambu Special is coconut meat, pandan jelly, brown longan, basil seed (think similar to a chia seed) & coconut water. All this with a crushed ice ball on top. Wow!! So subtle yet flavorful at the same time. I can't wait to make my way down their entire menu . The service: Another wow! The woman behind the counter was so nice & helpful. I mentioned how I like that it's a Vietnamese drink shop & she mentioned that her sister (I think an owner) & herself were both from Cambodia...one of my favorite places I've traveled to. It all made sense as the kindest people in all my travels were in Cambodia. She gave me future recommendations & I promised to return! The atmosphere: Clean, bright, variety of styled of seats, couches, high tops, & greenery walls that have cute neon signs. Wish this place was closer because it definitely had a coffee shop vibe. As a boba addict, I think I might have to pick this place over all the amazing boba options in that area & that's saying a lot! Please go try these goodies for yourself & support our local business owners!
