Great go to bubble tea! Love how personalized you are able to make each drink. Been here many times and have never gone wrong. This time I got their oat milk series (no extra charge right now!) chai with boba and no sugar. Delicious! Great spot to meet up and chat with friends. Always plenty of seating, great music, and kind staff. read more

This place has great ambience, staff and drinks. They have games that customers can play and a cute little Photo Booth. They do have vegan options which makes this place 10X better. Great place all around. read more

This is my local go-to bubble tea place! I can always expect my tea to be yummy and the boba to be perfect. I got the Brown Sugar Milk Tea, it was my first time getting something off the "secret menu" and it was delicious. Lots of room to sit and play games. Friendly and quick! read more

I've been here several times, the drinks are always good, the staff is always pleasant, and generally pretty quick. It can be busy at times so the wait can vary, but it's usually fast. If you're in the mood for boba and in the area you can't go wrong. read more

Quick and efficient and the customer service is good. I order at the kiosk and then wait. There's plenty of cute sitting spaces and there's even a photo of area. I just had a malted oolong and it was delicious. read more

Best boba place by far. Excellent service and drinks are always good and consistent. Highly recommend this location!

excellent tea and service! super cute place! love the big chairs! vietnamese coffee and taro slush were delicious! thank you for quenching our thirsts and putting smiles on our faces! read more

We were staying in the area and decided to order via the app for pick up. They were ready by the time we arrived, which was 15 minutes later. The staff here is very nice and super friendly. The location is also really nice - it is a much nicer place to hang out than a lot of the other KFTs that we have back home in NY/NJ. We will probably stop by again before we head home! read more

This place has gone downhill. Drinks are nothing like when they be and tend to be watered down. Service is inattentive and lackluster, especially later at night. Seating is reasonably comfortable when available or not closed off. read more

The milk tea was spot on - creamy, sweet and delicious. I tried their roasted chestnut milk tea, pistachio milk tea, and oolong milk tea and all three of them were delicious. The regular bubble (boba) topping was super tough/hard, so I don't recommend it at all. Instead, go for their Wow boba - soft, chewy, warm, and sweet. read more

Love this place. Cute tea shop. Great bubble tea and friendly staff. Would recommend to check out.

This is one of the best bubble tea spots in Novi. They're a chain so you may have seen another location around. The prices here are reasonable and they have lots of choices. The staff here are very helpful as well. I remember once I came in and a woman (who I assume has never had bubble tea ) was having the hardest time ordering , but they helped her and were very patient and kind about it. I'm glad they did as I was in a rush! You really can't go wrong with getting the Milk tea but my favorite item here is the Strawberry Lemonade with the Aloe Vera jelly. It's tastes sooo good if you like sweet drinks. Many people simply get their orders and they have games like uno and connect 4 if you'd like to sit and play games with a friend. I think this is pretty cool bubble tea place and worth the visit. read more

The boba here is out of this world. The staff are amazing and very attentive. I brought my sister there and we played games. The ambiance was very cozy would stop by again! read more

I needed something sweet, sugary and bobbaly too. Christmas shopping is so not fun or cool, the lines during the weekday is maddening too. It's next to the escape room. Ordered a medium mint Oreo slush with added boba and Oreos too with 50% sweetness to it. It's an interesting drink, minty and cookie filled for sure. The bobas are nice, soft and chewy. Nice sugar buzz to get me through the rest of the afternoon and errands too. read more

I've been to this location several times and I like their drinks. This time I had the Cocoa lava slush. Another good choice. Also, I usually ask for light Boba. I want to enjoy the drink itself instead of chewing most of the time. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Cocoa Lava Slush - Bubble Tea Near Me - Novi, Michigan

The Detroit area, and Michigan actually, is almost completely lacking in good bubble tea.. most who sell bubble tea could never get away with their product in the coastal states. Kung Fu is consistent and reliable. The tapioca always tastes fresh and chewy and the milk tops are perfect. The chain leans very sweet so make sure and adjust your sugar when you order (easiest to order online where you can also specify ice and add ons, etc) I ordered 3: rosehip with bubbles and mango jelly, green melon with bubbles & a black tea mango. All three were good quality and were ready long before predicted time on the app Kung Fu is more often found near larger college campuses so it's a bonus to have one here in the Novi shopping area. read more

Pay attention to the real reviews regarding customer service and in particular when customers have an issue with their drink. To err is human and understandable but it's how you treat your customers after they spend almost $8 on a drink that isn't satisfactory. I know this will not make a difference to them but I will NEVER spend another cent on this franchise location because of the non existent customer service from poor management that was on the phone communicating to the pugnacious contentious female employee behind the counter. No need to go into lengthy details other than an $8 drink for a customer that has an average food cost of 65c for the restaurant with high profit margins means that you should make an effort to take care of your customer! Yes, I'm an owner in the food service industry with multiple locations and over 300 employees. Shocking that management's policy is not to immediately offer to replace a drink with a food cost of only 65c to them, to please and retain their customer loyalty especially when said drink has a weird chemical taste. When you knowingly pay almost $8 for a product that costs 65c (not including labor etc) you have to leave feeling gratified by both the product purchased and service experience. Lots of other great boba tea places to support and great reminder on how not to run a business! read more

Always enjoy coming here, especially for their WOW boba. This time I wanted to try their normal pearls rather than their black sugar pearls, which I later regretted this decision. The flavor teas we got were all super good! I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the cereal milk cronch boba and the pistachio milk tea was sweeter than what I had in mind. Nevertheless, I enjoyed all the teas I got. read more

I am starting to think Kung Fu Tea is the best bubble tea in the area. I ordered the Cocoa Cream milk tea. Now I must preface that I really don't like the tapioca boba at all, but I heard about the special way Kung Fu prepares their boba, and how fresh and good is tastes! They are completely correct! While I still don't love boba, this was the most incredible tasting boba I have ever had anywhere! It was so flavorful and chewy, I really enjoyed it. The cocoa cream was also not my favorite, but it was not due to the drink not being great, but more of my personal taste. It was refreshing and chocolatey. Besides the boba I also added beans which I love. It think I would order something new next time. I knew it was a popular drink, so I wanted to try it. And for those who like this flavor, I would highly recommend it. One child got the strawberry lemonade. I did not try it, but she enjoyed it, and it smelled nice a fruity. The other child got my taro slush (my actual favorite flavor as well) with Oreo, beans, and pudding. Now that one was amazing!!!! I love the combo of cookies and beans, as unusual as that seems. Plus the pudding which I was told was an egg custard, but so nice and added a new dimension. The staff was friendly. I love the way the machines shake the teas. The whole set up is fun and inviting. There are so many flavors and combinations, it makes it hard to decide what order since I love trying new flavors (even if they are not my favorites). This is a fun place. Unfortunately they did not have any of their macarons. I am not sure when they ran out, or when they are getting more. I believe the Rochester location had them when I went last week. A couple other things, I still think this place is a bit pricey and I wish they had more popping bubble flavor options, for now it looks like they have only three. But I like how you can control the ice and the sugar in each drink. There was a nice steady number of people coming in and out getting teas. This location has been a few things, but this seems to be the most successful concept. I really hope they are here to stay! Since I am prone to go out and treat myself to fun drinks like this quite often, we will be back soon. read more

So I had read a while back that Kung Fu Tea was expanding to Novi (Sterling Heights was the first location in the metro Detroit area), but I didn't realize until today that it was in the same plaza as Emagine ... until four girls sitting next to me at the movies all had smuggled in some KFT, haha! I was jealous and decided to check it out after the movie. It's Friday night during Thanksgiving weekend so the place was packed. I had to wait a long time at the counter because the counter employee was packaging macarons or something like that, but she apologized for the wait. I ordered a medium Taro milk tea with lychee jellies (called nata jelly there, I think?) and regular sugar / ice. My order came out fairly quickly and was tasty. A medium bubble tea with jellies will cost you around $4.77, which is a treat for me but on par with others in the area. Interior looked nice and I saw they had games (board games, etc.) like the SH location does. Great location in Fountain Walk so I'll be back when I am in the area or seeing a movie at Emagine Novi. read more

I love this chain boba spot. The drinks are refreshing, they give you plenty of toppings (whether you like boba, jelly, pudding, etc), and the prices are reasonable. Service is quick and always accurate. This is the first Kung fu tea I've seen with cute decorative chairs and such. Definitely aiming towards a younger crowd. Worth stopping to grab your favorite boba. read more

Good bubble tea. Reward program only works if you have a credit card on app and pay only with a credit card. (They don't have the capability to look up / link your phone number for app reward credit) Disappointing there's only one payment option in order to earn any rewards: credit card only and only with app. They apologized the app had reward/ payment limitations I ordered the almond bubble tea. It has lots of bubbles. Could be creamier but it was nice, hot, and lots of bubbles! Service was friendly and helpful..I would return! read more

Finally!!! Real bubble tea! The boba drought is over. This place is legit. A true test of the bubble tea is the milk tea, and this place serves the real thing. The tapioca is perfectly chewy and doesn't stick. And their other flavors are lots of fun. My new favorite has to be the grapefruit green tea. Unlike other places, the bubble tea here isn't sickly or syrupy sweet. There are so many fun refreshing options and I'm honestly so excited to try them all. They have classic bubble teas, milk teas, espressos, and slushees for those hot summer days. Y'all I'm going to go broke with this place nearby, and I'll probably just end up thanking them for it. read more

Hooray to finally have a boba spot in Novi! Not a restaurant where they serve mediocre boba, but an actual boba tea shop to grab good boba and hang out. It reminds me of back home (Los Angeles). Moving to MI I had to make some food sacrifices and boba was one of them so I am ecstatic that Kung Fu tea has opened. The closest one was in Madison Heights and that means at least a 40minute drive and there's no way I'm making the drive down there for just boba on a week day. They opened in May and I stumbled upon this location while driving through their parking lot to pick up some lunch. I'm so glad I did or I probably wouldn't have discovered you guys for awhile. They seemed to be still getting the hang of things. They will definitely need more staff as it gets closer to the "summer" months. Plenty of parking out front. read more

Quick service, lots of choices. Tastes great. Cute inside. They do have a good points system for discounts etc you can sign up for.

Located in the Fountain Walk plaza next to the escape room. Kung Fu Tea is super busy, and there was a line out the door on the Friday night that we were there. The service runs slow, and the flow of the seats and counter is not designed well so the line goes outside. The interior has nice colors and some interesting seating. We ordered the lychee punch with aloe jelly, matcha milk cap, wow milk and milk bean, mango slush, Oreo slush, strawberry milk slush, and KF honey tea. Our drinks were about $4-$6 each, varying depending on add ons. We ordered 10 drinks and they made it through quick. The service was very friendly and had high energy. read more

Nice staff. But they can't make my favorite item. Taro milk tea. Which...really was a huge disappointment for me at my first visit. Fung Fu Tea uses taro syrup which robbed the familiar creaminess of my favorite boba drink. So atmosphere... The weekends are crammed packed and it's incredibly loud. Not your ideal study spot. I went again on a weeknight and there was no one there! Since I wasn't so pleased with my initial visit, I expressed what I was looking for and the boba tea barista suggested a few items but I settled on an oolong milk tea with boba with 50% sugar. It was definitely compareable to my usual milk tea but it's got a slight bitterness or tanic taste I look for in strong black teas. The bobas were delicately soft, chewy and had a light honey finish. I would suggest this as your first drink if you've never tried it. It was the perfect...snack drink for shopping at DSW and Nordstrom Rack. :) I'll be back. I'll try something new, but no taro for me. I'll go elsewhere for that specific flavor. read more

As the new trend in drink is bubble tea, was happy to finally find a good authentic place wher u get delicious tea. Most of the time i have been there its usually crowded .. the wait is usually 5 to 10 mins on weekends... I liked their chai tea and oreo milk... They have a huge variety of teas and will sure be visiting again to try everything on their menu They have a few seating area and also games to enjoy while spending some time at the store.. Its a bit pricey but the tatse compensates it so its a win win... They also have macaroons in different flavors read more

I don't know how this place has so few reviews, they get hundreds of customers on the weekends (even in the span of time I'm there). I've been here dozens of times since they opened, everything is great, app has rewards, sugar options, what could be better? Oh wait - everything is LACTAID for us poor folks with the mutation (or who drank too much milk tea when we were younger and ran out of lactase...) Best boba place in the area that isn't a several hour drive. Sesame matcha is ridiculously flavorful, wintermelon MT, taro, oolong are all hits. Pro-tip is to get their tea punch or just plain teas (like Lychee, Mango, etc.) and get a milk cap - it's like a milk tea except for flavors you usually don't find a MT version. Also, note that they are quite busy later in evening (like after 7) or weekend evenings. read more

Do you ever just rummage through your belongings and find that iconic black bubble tea straw. You instantly know that it's from Kung Fu Tea, and you're brought back to the memory enjoying that nice cold brew with your favorite topping. That's how KFT makes you feel after you've had it. It doesn't matter if I get 1 drink or 28 drinks (I have done this, please less ice), this place delivers. I see a lot of people complain about things like the app, incorrect orders, but Matt and his team work hard to deliver. If they do make a mistake, they are quick to correct it and if you're lucky, sometimes you'll end up with a complimentary drink. Love this place and the experience they bring. I wish I could add another star. Bless you all. read more
