    Waffle Pop
    Paul C.

    Nice tea shop offering bubble teas along with other Asian-inspired drinks and snacks. The waffle pop was something I hadn't experienced before and was a fun treat. I tried the passion fruit tea with tapioca pearls and a Vietnamese coffee--both were good. Personally, I prefer fruit slush drinks that are sweeter than straight teas. They don't currently offer those, but I think that would be a great addition to the menu.

    Mochi waffle pops, strawberry and cookies and cream.

    10/10, the mochi waffle pops were delicious, and the staff was super friendly. Overall, awesome experience. Vibey spot with great desserts. Would recommend anyone in the area to stop by and give it a try.

    Absolutely LOVE it here! The ramen bowl with their extra toppings was DELICIOUS. The s'mores milk tea is perfectly festive. The earl grey milk tea with creme brûlée cold foam tastes like cereal milk and a crowd pleaser. The Vietnamese coffee is my favorite and actually tastes like strong coffee! Bonus that it has chicory! The blueberry crunch mochi waffle is the perfect light dessert with a little tang from the blueberry. There's so much to try and so many sweet treats!

    The tastiest boba and teas in Birmingham! Leafly Boba has a huge menu of teas to choose from and freshly made mochi waffles. We tired the Gingerbread Milk Tea and the Cinnamon Egg Cream Coffee. These are both seasonal drinks and they were phenomenal! You can adjust the sweetness and add boba to all the teas here too. While sipping on our drinks, we ate some ramen from the dry goods selection. They heat up the ramen there and offer toppings that you can add. Toppings include spam, cheese, nori, quail eggs, and green onions. Post drinks and ramen came the mochi waffles. They are made to order- served fresh and warm! There's a few different flavors to choose from, each with their own combination of a sweet drizzle and cookie crumbs. All in all, the drinks are to die for and the mochi waffles are too good to skip. I beg of you, please, pay Leafly a visit on our next venture downtown.

    Ooooh love this boba tea spot! It is tucked into the cutest new development. There's some seating outside and plenty of seating inside. The workers are so sweet and available to give great recommendations. We tried a more refreshing tea and a more milk based tea - everything was delicious!! Will be returning soon!

    This was a place my girlfriend suggested and they had many options. It was different but it was pretty good. The inside was small and cute. They have a swing!!! The service was so nice and he gave me free water. lol.

    Cool owners. They know my friend down here and were very conversational and hospitable. Understanding with all four of my kids, too. Wanted to try the boba here in AL and see where it was at compared to HI. ---- these guys are doing great. keep it up. -Aloha

    Pretty Decor

    I love Leafly Boba!! The drinks are so good and the owners Huy & Min are spectacular. They have so many different drinks to try and the prettiest most Instagram-able decor. My favorite drinks are the Earl Gray, crème brûlée and the Matcha lemonade.

    Black Sugar Jasmine Milk Tea
    Anna M.

    If you are looking for more authentic milk teas, then Leafly is for you. These are *not* the neon and bubblegum colored drinks concocted with syrups and usually way too sweet. My standby is Black Sugar Jasmine Milk Tea. It's sweeter than something like the Dark Roasted Oolong, and the jasmine makes it light and fresh. I also tried a Black Sugar Boba Mochi Waffle Pop, because of course, more boba! Super fun to eat, and I look forward to trying the other flavors of mochi waffle pop. Leafly was a little hard to find, but a lot of that has to do with the construction in the area and Urban Supply not being fully occupied yet. Leafly is right in the middle, facing a open courtyard area. Also, if there's a Barons game, parking may be a little hard to find, but the Urban Supply development and surrounding area is easily walkable. That said, I will make it a priority to visit anytime I'm in the downtown/Railroad Park area.

    Cookie Butter Milk Tea
    LaTaysia Q.

    Had the Cookie Butter Milk Tea with Boba and it was pretty good. This was my first time trying boba and honestly had a positive experience. Couldn't decide what I wanted because they have so many options that look amazing! My barista did really well on my drink and his customer service was delightful. It's such an amazing atmosphere. Very chic place. Will be returning very soon and this time I will know what I want to try!

    Mochi waffle pops
    Kimberly A.

    Fruit teas are what you want to get here at Leafly. PASSION FRUIT, MANDARIN, and TROPICAL FRUIT are all phenomenal fresh flavors. I would skip the VIETNAMESE COFFEE and THAI TEA - both are too watered down for my tastes. All the MOCHI WAFFLES are served with a side dollop of whipped cream to dip in. Definitely don't miss out on it! Service is accommodating, quick, and courteous. Parking is slim, but if you can walk a few blocks you can find street parking. Beware there is lots of construction going on here during the day. Most of the available spots are taken up by the workers here.

    The vibes are nice here! Love the decor, space, and games. The mochi waffles were delicious. I do like their drinks but the boba is not the best I have had. It's not as whole and chewy and lacks flavor. Overall I do still enjoy this cute cafe!

    Swing!!

    I just love this place!! The service always great! They know their tea stuff here.. the music is always a vibe. Can say enough good things about this place! Check them out!

And bam that's when I noticed this place was one of those we are going to force you to have what we believe is healthier for you. What do I mean. No Splenda no equal just that nasty truvia. I'm diabetic so I don't use sugar and truvia is just nasty. It tastes horrible and makes your drink taste horrible. Now mind you they will use all kinds of syrups with dyes and additives and sugars but nope not Splenda. That's bad for you. The 50 grams of sugar in a single vanilla latte is totally fine. We're ok with that even though that alone is over the recommended amount. But Splenda no we can't allow that. Will never be back.

I was specifically super excited to try their seasonal matcha special, which was made with horchata (also from Salud!) and strawberries, if I recall correctly. Unfortunately, we walked in only to find they were out of the supplies needed to make the drink. :( I was caught off guard and didn't know what to order, but the barista recommended a latte with maple flavor so I went with that. The interior was clean and spacious and had a relaxed and calm but energetic feeling to it. Good place to hang out or work quietly. There's a self-service area to spruce up or fix your drink or grab lids or stir sticks. Service was nice and my drink came out quickly. It was pretty good but not really the "right" drink for me. I like my stuff on the sweet side and this was much more balanced and coffee-forward. That said, it held its own against my sugar-craving taste buds and I drank most of it, which is usually the hallmark of good brew, lol. I don't really blame them because I blanked on what to order and just went with what was suggested. It's probably a great suggestion for lots of other folks! Would be happy to come back and try a different beverage. Seems like a nice place overall. :)

The shop may be small, but it has a cozy, welcoming feel that makes it a comfortable place to enjoy a cup of coffee. Even though it's located in the lobby of a building, the décor gives it plenty of character and makes the space feel warm rather than temporary. I could easily see myself coming here to get some work done or simply relax for a while. I decided to try one of their seasonal drinks, the Berry & Bee Latte. While it wasn't quite my favorite flavor combination, the espresso itself was well made, and I wouldn't hesitate to come back and try another drink from the menu. Sometimes a seasonal special just comes down to personal preference, and this one wasn't quite for me. The standout of my visit was the chorizo, egg, and cheese empanada. It was absolutely delicious and easily the highlight of my order. There's a short wait for the empanadas, but that's because they're warmed fresh after you order, and it's well worth it. I'd gladly wait a few extra minutes for something served hot and fresh. The only area where I think the experience could be improved is staffing. During my visit, the barista had to step away from the counter several times, which left me waiting a few minutes before I could order. Having a second employee available during busier times would likely make the flow much smoother and improve the overall customer experience. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would definitely stop by again. The comfortable atmosphere, quality coffee, and outstanding empanada make Daily Buzz Coffee worth a return trip, and I'm looking forward to trying a different latte on my next visit.

Tyler was great with helping make my selection of drink and I loved how patient he was with assisting on the order. The feel of the space was very comfortable and welcoming to creatives. I love the location and how it is in walking distance to so many things. Thankfully I was able to find a parking spot across the street and didn't have to pay to park. Basic. is the store sharing the space and it is nice to be able to browse their inventory while waiting for your drinks. They have some things that I have not seen anywhere else if I had to compare it to another store I would compare it to Earth Bound. Everything seemed to be environmentally conscious which is always nice to see.

It's located right along 2nd Ave amongst all of the restaurant hubbub. Street parking, but if you're willing to take a stroll for a couple blocks, it's easy. This is one of the busier coffee shops in town, I would advise against seeking silence here. It's a shared space with "basic," a vintage clothing and art retailer which has awesome things made by local people. The people that worked there were so friendly. I came because I had to get that crème brûlée latte. It did not disappoint. One of the most delicious coffee drinks I've had in a long time. It tasted like a hug, perfectly caramel sweet, and fun to drink. It's not often that coffee gets turned into an interactive experience. The pastries looks great. The couch in the front window looked like an awesome spot to post up with some buddies. There were plenty of tables and chairs to work at. I will most certainly be back.
