The place is pretty cute and has unique decoration inside, there's even a paper clip table! The service was pretty fast and it wasn't crowded when we went, which was off hours. The Boba came out pretty quickly. I got the brown sugar tea boba and it was good, very standard.

This milk tea place is at the Old Stadium Mall. The decor is nice and modern. They have a few seats near the glass window. They sell teas, rice yogurts, smoothies and milk caps with tons of different toppings. What makes them different is that they sell authentic Pop Mart blind box toys. I was so tempted to get the Haci Pupu, lol. Plus, you get $5 off $15 if you use your American Savings Bank debit card. I got the large Mango Milk Cap $7.75 and the hubby got the large Brown Sugar Milk Tea $6.50 plus $0.95 for the brown sugar crystal boba. The Mango Milk Cap had real mango fruit in the drink. It was still a bit tart even at 100% sweetness. Next time, I'll ask for 125% sweetness. the milk cap gave it a creamy texture, which was so good. My hubby liked his milk tea, but wasn't happy with the boba. He said it was crunchy. However, it was his fault. He ordered the crystal boba instead of the regular boba. I'm going to have to school him on the drinks and toppings.

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..

Honeydew smoothie with brown sugar boba
Angela M.

I saw a fellow YES member visited this location and saw the drink she ordered...it looked divine so I had pay a visit myself! I ordered the Honeydew Smoothie with brown sugar boba and felt like a little girl drinking boba for the first time. It was so refreshing and at the perfect sweet level especially now that it's hot in Hawaii. The service was exceptional as the female who rang my order helped me with choosing the right item to buy and offered me a choice of toppings. The parking was not bad at all. I parked on the street where you can find metered parking and was lucky to grab a spot the first time around. I highly recommend you visit Lunar tea. Btw- they also sell gift cards and many other collectible kawaii items.

Oolong milk tea with boba
Mia M.

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.

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!

Honey Yuzu Jasmine Green Tea with strawberry popping boba 25%, honey yuzu black tea 25% and oolong tea milk cap 25%

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!

Mango Smoothie (Large) with lychee jelly
Jazelle A.

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!

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.

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 :)

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.

TLDR: Long lines even at opening, customizable options but consistently good!…read more Can't say I haven't had authentic acai up until this point. For some reason, I totally forgot that good acai could be found in Hawaii!! Hello!! Its not just the fresh fish ya'll I walked here and there was still a line by 7, and even longer one when I went the next day, but it does move quite fast, especially with some of the workers letting people know they have a sit down resturant next door so just food for thought if you want more actual food options! As it stands they have quite an extensive list of juice, coffee, acai. I decided to go with a more basic route but instead subbing my fruit for what was in season which was mango, lilikoi and lychee. You order at the front and they call your number. They have some seating around as well but if you're at the hawaiian center you can just sit downstairs. The fruit alone was out of this world. I was actually so focused on that I wasn't even thinking about if the acai was good which I think it was! It comes out rather creamy, not frozen or icy. The price is a little steeper than what I've had in the past but honestly the fresh fruit alone made it extremely worth it. A regular sized bowl was quite filling! I came back the next day and it was still just as good. I know some people probably prefer different locations than others but I can rep this one for sure. Its in a very touristy place, maybe even the mecca so if you want to avoid that then avoid any location in waikiki

Their other location of Shirokiya Village Walk in Ala Moana closed abruptly during the start of COVID in March 2020 and sadly never reopened. That means the only Kulu Kulu is at Eaton Square conveniently located on the first floor. This Kulu Kulu store opened in 2013 and still going strong. We recently came here to capitalize on their 14th anniversary special with 8 assorted sweets for $27.50 (originally valued at $55) for a limited period of 3 days from 10/23/26 to 10/25/26. I originally was planning on getting a red velvet cake for my sister's birthday but consulted with the fam and decided on this anniversary special plus 4 of their famous Diamond Head Puffs, offered at BOGO deal. We ended getting several of their anniversary specials to give away to others and a box. After our dinner, we asked the staff who kept it chilled from when we arrived at the restaurant and were in awe of the attention and detail and precision. Crowd favorites were the mango mousse cake and Japanese cheesecake. Their Diamond Head puffs don't disappoint. So perfectly shaped with a firm exterior and center generously filled with cream. Some may think the cakes here are pricey but the quality and flavors justify. I personally enjoy the nama chocolate and eye stunning rainbow cake. I'm still glad we get to enjoy Kulu Kulu and even a super plus when they have their anniversary special. Congratulations for celebrating another year and looking forward to my next visit.
