    Classic Milk Tea
    Kristina C.

    I decided to come back to try Lunar Tea again since last time I went was years ago! Service is fast and the cashier was knowledgeable about the drinks. Anyways, I ordered a classic milk tea, 75% sweet, with no toppings. I'll be honest, for 75% sweet it felt like I was drinking syrup. It was VERY sweet and the tea flavor was weak. However, my boyfriend got a roasted oolong tea milk tea, 50% sweet and that was perfect. I'm just shocked at how big of a difference of the sweetness is. Overall, I think maybe I would come back and try a drink at 50%.. but I'm not too sure..

    Fine but not my favorite spot. Lunar tea has a cute space with a few seats and easy parking. Their drinks are ~$7-10, which is average for boba these days, and I think the quality is also about average. I had the oolong milk tea and added boba, which I got at 50% sweetness but found it was still very sweet. It was probably from the brown sugar boba, but I'd go down to 25% next time. The milk tea was as expected - I wish it had a stronger tea flavor, but it was fine. Overall I'd come back here if I'm in the area and craving boba, but wouldn't make a special trip.

    Very clean inside. Parking is a B**** (horrible) btw but other than that the everything went smoothly. Our orders wet correct and everyone was nice. But I didn't like that they have a "green tea" when it's actually a Jasmine green tea. I know this isn't a problem for some people but when you're expecting something and it isn't, it is. The taste is different. I don't mind a Jasmine Green Tea but they should advertise that. Just saying. And my fellow Yelp readers, be warned!

    I got the purple rice yogurt and it was delicious. I haven't had one since Yomie Yogurt closed down in Ala Moana. Will def be back to try other drinks in the menu!

    Love that lunar tea is consistently delicious! Have always loved their drinks, matcha, ube, fruit teas, boba, coffee, every drink that we tried has been consistently good! Parking lot is small and noticed that they put up parking signs to scan put in info but didnt realize it till we left! Also the last two times I went the parking has been full! Gave up looking and waiting for a stall and left. Everytime we are in the area though it is a go to! Their matcha is one of the best and actually tastes like matcha! They also have tons of gacha machines and Asian snacks to buy. Service is always great and they have a stamp card to reward you after ten drinks.

    Lunar Tea is a cozy boba shop located across the Old Stadium Park. The interior features crane machines, plushies for sale and adorable moon decor to match it's name. Service is friendly and helpful. My favorite things to order are the matcha latte and the brown sugar milk tea. Their teas are strong and flavorful with adjustable sweetness. The shop is small and definitely a place to grab and go but they have a few counter seats and benches if you want to chill for a bit and enjoy your beverage. Don't forget to grab a stamp card if you know you'll be returning!

    Wanted a quick boba drink as I was in the area and decided to try Lunar Tea for the first time. The vibe inside is very cozy with ample seating and gacha/claw machines, which seems to be pretty fitting recently. Riley was very knowledgeable about the drinks and patient with me when ordering as I mentioned I wanted something different than my usual brown sugar boba order, so she recommended the purple rice yogurt. Not too sweet, pretty good to my liking! I will be coming back :)

    I was so excited to try Lunar Tea because it was a family friend's favorite place to get boba. I'm happy to report that this spot met all of my expectations and then some! I came on a weekday, and it was completely empty. The single employee helped me choose from their extensive menu. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had rice yogurt drinks offered here!! Prior to this, I had only ever seen one other place that offered rice yogurt drinks. I ended up getting a large mango rice yogurt, 50% sweet. My order came very quickly, and it was absolutely delicious! The mango was very fresh, and I enjoyed the chew of the purple rice. You don't even need any extra toppings. My only critique is that it could've used more rice. Please note that this drink DOES have milk for any milk-intolerant friends. My family member got the ube smoothie, which he said was really good and flavorful! But he recommended getting it 75% sweet. Inside, you can find some seats/tables along the window walls. I tried studying here, but the glare is a bit uncomfortable for anyone who is light-sensitive. There are also snacks and merchandise for sale! And a cute claw machine, too! Parking is free for the 1st hour (I believe), but there's a slight fee after that. But it shouldn't be much of a problem for pick-up orders. Also, ask for a stamp card! You get a free drink after your 10th purchase!! Overall, I highly recommend Lunar Tea. I will be back to try the azuki flavor!

    Came by lunar tea multiple times during our trip and it was definitely a treat! We were brought here by a family friend and I am happy that they did. Each time I did try different things, so I got the regular brown sugar milk tea, and the Hong Kong milk tea which was my ultimate favorite. The boba was really good and the staff is super friendly. There is minimal parking but every time we went we got lucky. One of the times I called ahead on the phone because I knew they were closing soon and wanted to get my order in before hand. They were super friendly, and were willing to accommodate my request, and had the drink ready when I arrived. I was able to pay in store. Inside the decor is really cute too and they have a claw machine.

    Cutest little boba shop! The parking in this little shopping center is tight, but I've always been able to find a spot. The inside of this shop is very aesthetic and very in-theme. The hanging lights above the bar seats are moons and their popular drinks are marked with a moon on their menu. There's lots of seating, from wooden barstools to a giant clothespin bench and giant dice stools. There's perfectly organized shelves of unique snacks and collectibles for purchase. There's even a claw machine to play in here! The workers were nice and the drinks weren't bad. Definitely need to try different things next time!

    Their ube smoothie with boba is solid. It's not on the sweet side, just the way we like it. I believe you can adjust sweetness level. They have a bunch of claw machines inside if you're into it. They have some asian snacks if you're feeling hungry too. I tried their banana chip snack and enjoyed it.

    One of my favorite boba places!! Was Hana Tea, but since they moved from Kalihi, and I found out about Lunar tea, we now have a go to for our brown sugar milk tea fix. Cute boba shop located in Moi'ili'ili. They have a cute claw machine with stuffed animals, labubu, monsters, coin purses, more stuffies, they also have Asian snacks and chips. Never had a problem with customer service. Always nice and friendly. Since we been 2 days in a row, white girl with braids and glasses, long hair, always nice and polite and patient. Sorry don't have her name. They have variety types of drinks from milk tea, to brewed tea, fresh milk, fruit tea, rice yogurts, smoothies, milk cap, and also variety toppings. You can also choose your sweetness level. Again, my go to is brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba - in case any of my friends reading this lol... and the wife likes the rice yogurts. She likes the purple rice yogurt and today she tried the mango rice yogurt and she said it's her fave. She likes it. Definitely make this one of your go to boba/ desert/ sweet treat stop! Don't forget your stamp card :)

    Not a bad option for boba! This boba shop is located along S King Street, and there's usually some parking available in the lot or along the street during peak hours. The shop itself has a clean interior with a gray colorway; some seating is available as well with cute merchandise stocked on the shelves nearby and even an arcade machine tucked in the corner. I got the jasmine tea with milk cap and boba with no sugar, and it came out very quickly. The cashier and barista were both quite nice as well. Overall, I liked my drink. The boba was sweet and chewy, and they gave a good amount of it. The tea was fragrant and tasted pleasant as well. I would definitely come back to try some more drinks, as they have a good-sized menu with plenty of things to try!

I highly recommend stopping in and grabbing their coconut peanut butter or macadamia nut peanut butter. They also have several other variations, including chocolate. They also offer local honey. Their peanut butter is highly sought after back in the states. So if you're here grab a combo and give it a try, you just might find yourself ordering some online once you've given it a try.

This might be one of the only places in Waikiki open at 4 AM which is perfect if you've just arrived the night before from the East Coast. The inside of the shop feels homey. They have a display case full of pastries along with additional baked goods set out nearby. For my coffee on this morning I decided to go with a coconut latte and then ordered a blueberry malasada while my father went with a custard-filled one. At Maleko, the malasadas are pre-made but not filled until you order which I think is a smart move. I first tried my blueberry malasada and thought it was good. The dough was light and fluffy and the filling had a great flavor. As for my coffee, I have to agree with other reviews that the syrup made it overly sweet. I still drank it, but I definitely would have preferred something less sweet. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again for the malasadas. As for the coffee, I would probably pass unless you prefer your drinks on the sweeter side.

Expect long lines here lol We did a huge order for coffee and breakfast menu items. The wait to order may be long, but luckily it didn't take too long for them to prepare the drinks and sandwiches. The drinks were faster but the sandwiches did take some time. I mainly had the Kai Latte, which was the macadamia nut latte. I would say it's pretty sweet, but the macadamia nut flavor wasn't really that prominent. It was just sweet. I wish the coffee was also stronger, but it was pretty light. The sandwiches here were pretty good too. I tried the veggie breakfast sandwich which only had some greens and eggs. I tried a bite of the protein breakfast sandwich and I think I probably like that one better haha. Although, the veggie one was definitely a lot more lighter and easy to consume. The protein one probably would have been a lot more heavier for me, but a lot more flavorful. Otherwise, food and coffee are pretty solid. There are a few tables outside the coffee shop, very limited. Love the atmosphere around here!
