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.
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!
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.
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!
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
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

I love this place & wish there was one in Gahanna! I've never had a bad drink. This was first time trying a slush. It was delicious. I like how you can alter the amount of sweetness on any drink. Their ordering system was weird this time. Everyone stood in line by the register to order (because that's where the machine was this time) instead of ordering at the register. It made much more sense when it was towards the opening of the store & you could pick how you wanted to order. They're too busy unfortunately to ask any questions, so you better know what you want! The game machines were a nice touch & I wasted a few dollars on that while I waited. read more

Attached is a really shitty picture of some really shitty drinks. I didn't want to slam Kung Fu Tea so hard because I don't remember it being this bad in the past, but the drinks were seriously nasty. Both milk teas were ordered at 30% sweetness but arrived unbearably syrupy. The taste and even texture of the drinks were so cloying that I had to stop after a sip or two. When I got home, I ripped the lids off, poured half the drinks into separate cups, and did some major dilution work with milk and ice. So I guess the one plus side is that I got four drinks...I guess? I was additionally frustrated by the experience because it turned out that the coupon I wanted to use for national girlfriend day (teehee) was only applicable on the KFT app. This was not mentioned on the promotional poster and it was only after I got to the store that an employee explained it to me. I wish the restrictions on KFT discounts were made clear on the flyers so that I could have saved the time I spent in the store just downloading the app, making an account, etc. Positives on this store include that there's plenty of seating and they were running a capybara plushie lottery. I hope I get it squish read more

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. read more

Excellent Kung Fu Tea location! They're busy but still pretty efficient. Had the "jasmine milk tea wow with milk cap" and it was excellent. The boba was JUST cooked, and as a result, supremely warm and chewy. So enjoyable. read more

They're doing a pick up only by ordering through the app. Warning- the app will send crap to your email immediately the next day and has for me nearly daily now for half a week. The drinks are good and decently priced- they weren't stingy w the boba in my matcha red bean slush which is nice. read more
This is a great place to hang out with groups of friends, play games, and even study. They have WiFi (although I am currently sitting here, and the WiFi is not working) and large tables and even have a few board games. There is a large variety of drinks both cold and hot including slushes, milk teas, classic teas (with no milk), coffee drinks, punches (tea with fruit but no milk) and more. I usually get the wow milk which has Lactaid because I'm lactose intolerant and also comes with bubbles (boba, tapioca, etc). I am also a fan of their oolong milk tea. My ultimate favorite drink has been taken off the menu which was the mung bean wow milk. Apparently no one likes mung bean so I don't think this will affect many people. I'm not sure I would recommend getting bubble with hot drinks because as you can see in my picture, there is no straw with hot drinks so I am unable to get to my bubbles. =( There is plenty of parking, and the rest of the plaza has a lot of interesting stores as well. This place is packed on weekends. read more

I was introduced to bubble tea a few years ago and am now thankful we have so many great places in Columbus top get Bible tea. Now I LOVE it very much but have friends that are skeptical. Those that are skeptical typically have an issue with texture. Which is something you want to like. See, I love eating things from my drink. Sounds weird but give me a drink that gives me something to nibble and I'm happy. Which is why I love it so much. I've been to quite a few spots in Columbus but always come back to Kung fu tea. Their tea taste the best, isn't btter, and you have tons of options to really create your own. Plus I think they have the best tasting bubbles in town. I've heard rumors that they soak their bubbles in brown sugar but I'm not sure how true that is. I do know they do somebody to make them taste so good. If you're a novice bubble tea drinker I would suggest starting here. They are always so helpful in finding a drink that fits your needs. My favors is the taro but I also love the honey milk tea, Thai milk tea and coconut milk tea. read more

I found out about this bubble tea establishment through other Yelper's. Their helpful reviews made my decision up to come here and finally try it today and I was not disappointed. I tried the KF Milk Green Tea with less sugar and bubbles and it was delicious. The creamy taste made the drink so delectable. It's like a dessert tea for me. Having that right amount of sugar and cold tea mixed together. I know I will definitely be back with my husband. Especially because I saw they have a lychee tea which I think he might like. Hopefully my classmates won't mind meeting me here either to study since I think they have free-wifi by looking at all the outlets in the seating area. I shall introduce all my friends to this bubble tea establishment soon! read more
Kung Fu Tea (KFT) is my favorite place to get boba in town. There's plenty of choices to choose from, free parking, and plenty of tables to sit at. They even provide free WiFi at their stores. I love getting the slushes here and the punches/teas, I think KFT does it better than the other bubble tea places. You can also customize your type of topping(s), amount of ice, and sugar levels! If you've never been and you like sweets/sweet things, I recommend the Taro milk tea or slush. If you're a yogurt person, try their Rosehip milk tea. If you like tea based drinks, I recommend the mango green tea or peach oolong. If you are adventurous, try their wintermelon tea with a milk cap. I usually get bubbles as a topping, but I also love their nata jelly and pudding (consistency of flan). I come here for dessert, hang out with my friends, pick up orders, and study here sometimes. I like that there are various shops surrounding the area and other food spots. Bring a friend, a group, your family, kids, or a date! I love boba and I love coming here. If you haven't already gotten their app, use https://www.thelevelup.com/c/TW-5QJBHUSTA8 to download the app and sign up, to get a $4 credit on your first visit, through the app. read more

Both tea and milk flavor are very light, the boba are fine but not worth the money in my opinion... would not be back ... read more
There's isn't too much to say. This hidden plazastrip gem is THE place in the greater columbus area to get milk tea, bubble tea, and a variety of other popular Asian-influenced drinks. Their menu is expansive with customizable sweetness and ice levels. No worries about taking your time to decide on your drink, this place is open late and/or there's probably a line ahead of you. read more
