Okay, this Moge had no seating for ME,
And unlike freedom, this drink wasn't FREE,
But Med Center is populated SPARSELY,
When it comes to Boba, there's only, like, THREE
And the best of the bunch is named MO-GEE
And if you are thirsty, this is where I'll BE
What to get: Creme Brulee Milk Tea, or regular Milk Tea
What not to get: A ticket, parking around here can be very tricky indeed
And what else not to get: A laptop, you can't plug in here and there are no tables
Happy to be first to review the first true "in the Medical Center itself" Boba shop... probably the first of many, and a brilliant idea putting one here. I wonder if when that girl that works here kept showing up late, if they Doctor wages. Get it. Docked. Her. Wages.
No I admit it. My jokes make nurse sense at all.
So if your favourite player scored an OG
And your fave cafe's out of Bulgogi
I have some good news
That will lessen your blues
They have Creme Brulee Tea at Moge!
This Moge Tee is brand new, and located in a bit of a Bobe-Mine, which is basically a Gold Mine for a Boba Shop, and that's because there's a ton of people in this area, working here, even living near here, visiting too, lots of urban professionals, the largest medical complex in North America, but hardly any Boba Shops? Really? And no national chains? Okay, there's a Teahouse (local chain), but not even right under the shadow of the medical towers like this new spot is.
Amazing milk tea, wonderful Lemon Teas, everything on the menu is tasty and excellent, and they're really upping the game to a new level for this area. There are a few Kung Fu Teas not too far away and a truly amazing Purple Kow up in Rice Village, but nothing as delicious or world class as Moge within walking distance of these hospitals.
Major downsides though. There is nowhere to sit in here. And there are no outlets. At all. So I can't bring my old laptop and do my Yelp reviews here, or anything else. Very disappointing, since this location is one of the closest Boba shops to my house, and one of the best. I hope they'll put a nice long power strip in here and 4-5 tables. They clearly have the space, and it's within walking distance of one of the South's best Universities (Rice) which has lots of Boba drinkers, so it needs the tables, believe me. And the outlets.
The other major downside is that you can't order from a person. And that just sucks. Yes we live in a COVID world, but you can still order in person from 99% of Houston Boba shops. The other Moge locations offer the option of in person or on screen ordering. Often, there'll be weird specs and questions you don't think of until you're mid-order... forget about all that. The staff are really nice and friendly and the girl that gave me the drink was super-cute and personable, and discussed the Boba shop with me and how busy it's been, she was awesome.
Five stars for the drinks and the server, 1 star for screen-only ordering and no outlets or tables... but considering the lack of options in Med Center, and that the drinks here taste as good as the excellent locations up in Cypress and out in Chinatown, then I simply have to give five stars.
