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.
Came in during a busy time and it was PACKED, but the service was still super fast and organized. I ordered the vegan ramen and a cookies & cream popsicle and both hit the spot. The ramen was comforting and flavorful without being too heavy, perfect for a quick, windy night. The popsicle was such a fun add-on and balanced everything out with something sweet, also so soft and chewy. The decor is definitely a vibe. The neon sign, the modern lighting, and the clean black and yellow aesthetic make it a really cute place to hang out. Would definitely come back to try drinks next time.
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
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.
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.
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!
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!

I visited Leafly Boba Bar with a friend who is partnering with them. I initially wasn't planning on ordering anything, but I became curious about their Vietnamese coffee offerings and how they compared to Pink Lantern. I'm glad I decided to try one! I ordered the Pandan Caffè Latte, and I was really pleased with it. The coffee was strong but not overpowering, and the Pandan "cloud" foam was delicious. I especially loved how thick the foam was--it stayed on top even after I finished my coffee! Another thing I appreciate is that Leafly stays open later in the evening. If you're looking for coffee in Birmingham after 5 p.m., this is definitely a spot to consider. They also have plenty of seating, making it a great place to get some work done or meet up with friends. Their instant ramen options, which allow you to customize your bowl with different toppings, are another fun addition to the menu. The staff was friendly when we arrived and helpful while I was ordering. Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely be back in the future! read more
Leafly meets all the requirements of an amazing tea/coffee spot. It has plenty of options, chill and unique ambiance, friendly staff, and open late. The service is quick and everything is affordable as well for what you're getting. This can be a study spot or a quick lunch + pick me up (hello waffle pops or building your own Korean Ramyeon??)) and easily a coffee date. For my first visit I grabbed a matcha latte in the evening. Although there's staff, there's also some kiosks to order from. The hitech menus are a nice touch. The matcha latte was even nicer. It was sweet with chocolate drizzle to go along with the rich umami of the green tea. A friend of mine ordered a Vietnamese coffee and they said it was great (I could also tell by how quickly they drank it). read more
Just a short walk from Up Down Arcade, Leafly Boba is a quaint little "coffee shop" not far from UAB. In fact, many students stop by to study, play games or just to chill. There's nothing much to the entrance, but when you enter you're greeted by a bright, large electronic menu on the wall. The interior wall decor is very eye catching from the large two tone painted wall to the glowing cup of tea with bobba. The workers are so friendly and I met one of the owners who couldn't be nicer. Linh ordered one of their waffle pops. What a cool item. The owner explained that it was a special recipe. Paul and I tried one of their 2 non-caffeinated items, the Tropical Fruit Punch. I like how you can request how sweet you want it. He added some bobba while I asked for the Lychee Jelly topping. We picked out a table and waited a few minutes and goodness that fruit punch was outstanding! It was flavorful yet not over powering with sweetness. And the lychee jelly... Yom Yom Yom Yom! I spotted at their counter a Voted Best of 2025 sign. Also on their counter are Cup of Noodles style containers. What a great idea. You can enjoy a meal with your drinks. Paul noted that they currently don't have any slushies, but maybe they'll add some in the future. Keep up the great work Leafly! read more

Great space to study and get some work done with very helpful and kind staff. This is the best boba in Birmingham! The drinks are not too sweet or heavy and are so refreshing. We tried the mango green tea and Thai tea with boba. Will definitely be back again. read more
Check out the Birmingham location today. It's only a few minutes from Railroad Park. Let's discuss the menu. You can order fruit or lattes drinks. They can substitute the milk in your Boba, oat, or almond milk. You will notice that the flavor is very refreshing because they use natural ingredients, no artificial flavors, and plenty of room for seating inside. The ambience is so cute--they even have a little swing--and the music they play has a very cheerful vibe. It's a great spot to visit with friends or family. I recommend everyone stop at least once to try the amazing LEAFLY BOBA BAR. You will definitely want to go back. read more
This is a wonderful new spot for drinks, snacks, and even a ramen bar in the downtown/Parkside area of Birmingham! They are sure to please everyone with a big menu of milk, fruit, and specialities drinks with delicious toppings. We had the mango matcha and the passion fruit tea with lychee jelly which was a stand out. The server told us they make all their fruit drinks and add ins with fresh puree which you can really appreciate. The friendly server even brought us a bubble waffle to try after we debated and decided to try it next time. It was delish! Will be back to work our way through the menu!! read more
