Little Moon is one of my favorites in Columbus. A super chill-studio ghibli-esque vibe, but my favorite part without a doubt are the owners. They're very open to and welcoming to feedback, with us being regulars they check in on us quite often about the quality of the tea, the straws, and everything to ensure we continue coming back. They're incredibly kind, generous, and make DELICIOUS milk tea. Our favorites are the chocolate milk and the dirty black milk teas. I have no doubt little moon will continue being a columbus staple and will always strive to improve under such great ownership. read more

LittleMoon Cafe and Tea - Dirty Black Milk Tea, Dirty Chocolate Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

Stopped in for a little study date and almost wish I would've turned back around. I saw this spot on instagram and after passing it on the street almost every day I finally gave it a look. Upon entering, it seemed like it had potential as it looked pretty cozy. The barista was nice and our drink came out quickly since we were the only ones there. The biggest issue I had with this cafe was the seating and cleanliness. When looking for a spot to settle down my things I found that there was a lack of outlets in all the spots I was looking. I went over to the other side by the window and the table was filthy so I chose not to sit there. It must have been left over from the night before as we arrived shortly after they opened. Upon further inspection, there were stains on the seats, peeling paint, cobwebs, and crumbs. The place is cute when you get a first glance but if you look closer it's not very clean. I would not come back. read more

Pros: Cute space Lots of drink options, including non-caffinated and carbonated Food available too Lots of seating Cons: Only one person working My drink did not come carbonated :( Limited parking put front Pro tip: Go at off times so you don't have to wait long read more

I have been coming to this place for years! The owner is so sweet and generous and the tea is amazing. I love to come here and pick a cozy nook and study or work on projects on my computer. There is seating everywhere in here so there is always a spot to get things done or geek out with friends. We often come here to host small events and hang out with friends. There are also boardgames available to play or bring your own. Since it has been so dreary with the weather, it is nice to come here and relax and brighten up your day! This place has a lot of parking nearby so definitely come and visit. read more

Totally amazing teas! Not a recommendation for any food. But everyone is so nice! I love the Tea Joy drinks!

This is such a cute little cafe and they have plenty of seating and even offer games to play. There's free parking available in the back and street parking if necessary. It's usually pretty quiet and has not been busy the last couple times I've been. The owner and staff are very nice! They're very helpful and service is usually fast. I've gotten their Taro Strawberry, Thai Milk, and Rose Black Tea with Milk Cap. The Taro Strawberry was delicious, made well, and it had real strawberry bits. The Thai Milk was a bit bland and lacking Thai Tea flavor the last time I got it, but the pearls were made well and yummy. The Rose Black Tea was pretty good, I really liked the milk cap because it was made very well. The only issue I had with each drink was the straw being too small for the pearls because they were getting stuck with every sip, I ended up having to leave the pearls from my drink. Overall, the price and quality of each drink was very affordable and drinks were made well. Most of their drinks seem to be made from powders, but overall, they're still pretty good. They also offer a small selection of ice cream and waffles. They have various drink options, from teas, smoothies, to milk teas, and coffees. They have various toppings available, so you can customize your drinks! I would recommend this cafe for small groups, casual dates, dessert, game night, or a quick pick me up. read more

went for a stray kids cupsleeve event. the service was good and it was a decent cute place. they have parking in the back and also street parking but it was full so we had to park by giant eagle. if i had to go again i would maybe just get a latte as the milk tea wasn't very good especially the tapioca and the tres leches cake wasn't the best either. didn't finish either but i enjoyed the event read more

Plenty of seating! A cute little shop with hand made jewelry you can buy and games you could play which is nice. Service was okay, you can tell they're understaffed because it was only one person taking orders and making them which is why it took so long to order/get your drink. But we didn't mind the wait Drink quality was okay, the tea flavor itself I actually quite enjoyed but the drink wasn't iced enough so it was kind of lukewarm from the beginning which isn't very appealing. Boba quality was bland, not much flavor in the boba. But the texture was good! They also only offer one size read more

They are fairly close to the OSU campus. The vibe just remind me of that little café that I always hang out back in college. Love their little board game corner too. I got the egg waffle with the Grape Oolong Milk Cap Tea. This is such a perfect combo. The egg waffle is freshly made to order. The outer part is crisp and super fluffy inside, with some drizzle of the chocolate sauce. The Grape Oolong Milk Cap Tea have a strong tea base. Balance with the creamy, sweet milk cap and the subtle grape flavor. read more

Unfortunately I'm not a huge fan of Little Moon. The ambience and seating is great if you want to study or play board games with friends, but the drinks themselves (the reason I go) have not been very good the few times I've gone. The boba is bland and hard when available, and the tea itself is not flavorful. This past visit, I ordered coconut milk tea and coffee milk tea. They just tasted like coconut milk and coffee, no tea flavor at all. They usually only have 1 person working, who takes orders and makes drinks, which causes service to be slow and many toppings to be unavailable because they don't have time to prepare them between orders. Service has never been particularly friendly in my experience either, but I empathize with being only single staffed. I would come here if a friend wanted to but would not go out of my way when there are much better tea options in Columbus. read more

Had a great time at Little Moon Cafe today. Very cute and nice atmosphere inside. My drink and chocolate chip muffin were good, they even warmed up the muffin for me. Had customers in there who were socializing in groups and some that were sitting by themselves getting some work done. There was a wall of games for customers to play as well. Make sure you go in the front door and not the side door! Side door is locked and we didn't see the sign at first saying to go in the front. read more

This cafe is AMAZING. This is such a nice space for relaxing, tons of board games inside and the owner has a bunch of bags, notebooks, and other small trinkets for sale!! There are tons of drink options inside the cafe, even a small booklet with pictures of the drinks. The owner is also such a sweetheart, she is super friendly and very welcoming. I got a Thai tea with boba and it was so amazing, sweet but not overwhelming. If you have the chance, stop in and check it out. read more

I went to LittleMoon this week because it is closer to my house than my regular Kung Fu Tea. I think the cafe is quite cute and the service (at 3 PM on a weekday) was friendly and quite efficient. The cafe has a small seating area and some board games and a few sale items. It looked cute, and like you could relax and visit for a while. In addition to trying a new tea shop, I also thought I should branch out from my usual fruit/green tea option and ordered the Peach Oolong Milk tea with bubbles. I think the tea was fresh and my order was ready quickly, but the final product was not quite to my taste (but that is a question of preference versus quality). I will stick to my usual and try them again soon! I will say that the boba to straw ratio was a bit off, they didn't slurp up too easily. read more

LittleMoon Cafe and Tea - Peach oolong milk tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

One of the best boba shops in Cbus. I tried the passionfruit green tea with regular boba. 9/10. The flavor of the tea was amazing! They even added fresh sliced oranges and lemon to add a great citrusy note. The boba itself was ok. I would've liked more flavor from it, but it's a better, chewy texture than the other chains and campus area boba shops. I didn't stay long but it looks like a cozy spot to get some work done or hang with friends on a weekend. Friendly and fast service to top it all off. Keep an eye out for their seasonal flavors and special items. These are listed near the counter, but can be easily overlooked with all the standard menu options. Overall, I highly recommend checking out LittleMoon when you're in Clintonville. read more

Visiting town, doing laundry next door, decided to come get a boba tea while waiting for my clothes but when I walked in it felt like a hospital it was SO QUIET, intimidating, not even "elevator" music playing, I swear I could hear a beeping sound from someones oxygen machine lmao! and everyone whispering, so uncomfortable to make an order and try to speak! Grabbed my boba and run back to the laundromat that has better ambience drink was ok, I couldn't decide what to get feeling super awkward with the silence. read more

Super cute little cafe in the Clintonville area! They have a variety of drinks from bubble tea, coffee, to fruit teas. You'll definitely find something here that you'll like. There's mainly street parking and I went on a Wednesday night and had no trouble finding a spot. It is a quiet little cafe and they also have board games for you. Tables are socially distanced and ordering was super easy. I tried the Thai Tea with bubbles and the Mango Pineapple Fruit Tea - super delicious and not too sweet! read more

I love that Columbus is increasing their boba tea options! We need it in our lives! We ordered online through Grubhub. I got the taro milk tea with boba while my sister got the Assam with popping boba that was lychee flavored. They ran out of regular boba! Cute place! Seems like a hangout for undergrads since it's so close to campus. read more

I love this place, ive been going for years and the owner is super sweet, but ever since she got new employees, they have been great and nice but often charge the wrong amount. Either up-charging or down-charging almost $2. The prices have also gone up significantly, which is understandable but its just a lot to spend $17 for two drinks. I will always go here because of the cozy atmosphere and everything but damn its expensive as helly. read more

I passed by this place many times before stopping in, but today I finally decided to check it out. They have a good selection of drinks. I ordered my usual drink, which is a taro milk tea with boba. The drinks are only served in 22 Oz size. The price was reasonable and the staff member at the counter was friendly. Overall it was a good experience, and I will try visiting more frequently. read more

I found this gem while looking for a special place to take my teen for her birthday. We stopped in on a busy Friday night and found the place to be kinda slow. A few customers picking up to-go orders but that was about it. The young lady behind the counter was so patient with my kiddo. She has never really had bubble tea so there was a lot of questions. We ended up getting 4 different drinks to take on the road with us. Everything was extremely neat and clean. The drinks were very yummy and the boba was cooked perfectly. Covid has taken a toll on a lot of shops, I would highly recommend you stop in and check this place out. The Dirty Black Milk Tea was by far my kiddos favorite and I loved the Taro Milk Tea as well! read more

Nice bubble tea place. I believe Littlemoon Cafe is just Fairyville, but reopened after a little bit of remodeling inside and a revamped, smaller menu. I had the ube taro coconut milk while my companion had a tiger milk tea. The ube drink was decent: I liked the pulp inside. The ube coconut milk also wasn't too sweet, which is a common issue I have with many bubble tea stores. The tiger milk tea was good, albeit standard for milk tea. The interior is spacious, and they had Ghibli music playing from a monitor attached to the wall. LittleMoon was quiet and peaceful during a Sunday night. So I imagine LittleMoon is a good place for people to study. Parking isn't the best. You won't be able to find parking near LittleMoon itself. But the shopping center has more parking if you're willing to walk a little. read more

I got the taro milk tea - it was great, not too sweet but not too bland- also the portion was huge for an awesome price! Service was great, they were super quick. The atmosphere was so cute too, there are board and card games for everyone to play. read more

LittleMoon has replaced what was previously Fairyville! The inside is majorly the same with some changes to the menu and decor. The owner was super nice and since I'm able to speak Chinese, we conversed for a bit and she asked for some suggestions on the pastries she is thinking about putting on the menu soon. I recommended the tiramisu and I will definitely be back to try it! I got the Passionfruit Spring Tea (super passionfruit tea was my favorite at fairyville) and it takes slightly different but still amazing! I was overall really happy and will definitely come back to study, drink tea, and try desserts :) read more

What an amazing find thanks to Yelp! I ordered a Passionfruit Jasmine Milk Cap tea today through DoorDash and added popping bubbles. It was delicious!! The milk cap was like ice cream and the tea itself was deliciously fruity. I got it at 50% sweetness because GrubHub only offered regular, 75%, and 50%. It'd be nice if they offered lower or no sweet because I got enough sugar from the popping bubbles. I've noticed that all bubble tea places I've ordered from don't specify if any of the teas are caffeine-free. Not sure if it's a known fact that they all have caffeine? If they don't, it'd be nice to know or have the option for caffeine-free teas! I will absolutely order from here again. read more

If you were fortunate to have a great relationship with your parent(s), you have had those places or things to do that were considered your thing. The thing that you and your parent only did together; when you went by that special place or did that activity, it brought back sentimental memories. I say all that to say that this place is my oldest and I thing. We pretty much come here every week. Whenever you walk, run, or drive by this place, at first glance, it seems like it's not jumping. There is hardly anyone present in the restaurant. Any time that my son and would visit, there is normally just one person. Seeing an establishment with what you deem as light activity can be off-putting. I am here to tell you to go in a grab you some ice-cold refreshment. My go-to drink here is the tropical ice tea. I love it! When you drink the tea, it wakes up your taste buds. You can taste all of the fruits that are in this beverage individually. It's really fruity and sweet but not overly sweet and has this interesting perfumey taste. It is almost as though you sipped nectar from a rose. I have never described a drink as being smooth when it goes down; this drink right here definitely deserves that adjective. read more

Cute small boba shop. The design of menu could use some work but they do have a pretty wide selection. The peach oolong milk tea did not have any peach taste so I am not sure if they misheard, made wrong, or just how the drink is suppose to taste. The fruit mix tea was refreshing on the other hand. Tapioca boba isn't sweetened much but after soaking the drink, it tasted better. read more

Excellent boba for the Columbus area. Tried both the All-Spring Tea with Foam and their version of Brown Sugar Boba. Ambience is very quaint; boba barista was a super nice Asian lady. Bobas themselves had a nice qq texture with a neutral flavor; the milk foam on top was creamy and sweet and complimented well my spring tea (that wasn't a milk tea in and of itself). Their Brown Sugar Boba unfortunately did not come with brown sugar tapioca pearls, but I do think it was well done otherwise. The heat-stick soft plastic lids on top of the boba cups were extremely cute and 'grammable as well. Would recommend to any boba enthusiast finding themselves the Columbus area. read more

The tea was super fresh and the Sakura flavor is very rare to find so I was excited to try it here. The drink was refreshing and the boba and lychee jellies were tasty.

I think they are planning to add some pastries and/or snacks in the near future, which is really exciting! read more
