I've been here a few times. They are more than willing to try and make whatever you can dream, except boba at 8 am because they aren't ready. Most places you can't get boba at 8 am, but if you're going to be open, then it shouldn't be available hours after you open. They also no longer serve the food that everyone previously raves about. Kinda disappointed, but they still have awesome tea and coffee. Edit: it was 9:00 when the store didn't have boba. I was told not to expect boba for a few more HOURS. read more

filthy place with really gross tea because the milk is rotten. Makes you queasy.

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet despite how much of a regular I am here LOL. I've been a customer ever since they first opened, and I am still a regular customer to this day. This place takes time to create a friendly environment while providing a great variety of drinks/snacks for you to enjoy. Customization of sweetness for your drinks is available and the fact that this place was one of the first to offer fruit bits in their drinks allows them to have a differentiating advantage. They were also one of the first to bring Cha-Mango, which was something I saw often in California before it was brought here. Overall my go to place for drinks/socialization/studying. I would say something like "will come again" but the staff know me at this point so I might as well say that I live here read more

Magic Cup - Green Thai Milk Tea is my regular drink now - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I ordered 4 drink and they forgot both the boba and the rainbow jellys I called the store twice and nobody answered this is unacceptable read more

This place is the perfect place right after going to Saigon Block. A very short walk to help digest the food to add more food. I appreciate their passion to strive for freshness by displaying the fruits out in front, which follows suit with their drinks. The place has open space for games and outdoor sitting with heaters for the winters. I've been here several times and never been disappointed. My personal favorite is the Cha-Mango with a good blend of freshness, acidity, and sweetness with a little kick of spice. Their tea's our good as well and any place has agar (crystal boba) is an automatic favorite for me. Can't wait to be back here soon! read more

Best place to get fruit teas Their boba is on the softer side if you like that or not. The milk teas in particular Jasmine Milk Tea needs more kick to it. Overall would go to Magic Cup for their fruit teas. read more

The people at MagicCup are very nice. If you have any questions, they won't mind to answer them. The owner of the place is sweet too! I'd see her from time to time and she'll ask if I want some extra boba or if my matcha green tea latte is powdery. My usual drink is the matcha green tea latte with boba, it's very yummy. I usually go here every week or every 2 weeks. There are still times when my drink is too powdery like 2 out of 5 times I go there. It all depends on who's making my drink. Some of the workers don't shake it long enough and some do. There are also times when it tasted like they didn't even put in milk. My bf likes the cha-pineapple with extra stuff added. I think 2 of the workers automatically know the way he wants his drink to be. Lol. He refuses to go to any other boba places for his chamoy drinks. read more

Magic Cup - Magic Puffs - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

My least favorite milk tea/boba I've had in a very long time. I will not be back. Tea was not good. Boba was very hard.

The atmosphere is great. Offers good service and a nice place to hang out. We ordered the tropical paradise, cha-pineapple, fruit tea madness, passion blast, and finally the voodoo chicken. All tasted delicious! Favorite was the passion blast which has real fruit and a variety of jelly. Have not tried their milk teas yet, but hopefully the same service will be provided at our Houston location. There are board games and outside seating as well. Tip: try the voodoo chicken and magic puffs. The passion blast is a must order. read more

Have I come here way too often? Yes. Maybe. Fine, I do come here too often. The drinks are decent and they have a variety of snacks. If you're here to hang out there's outdoor seating for when it's great weather and they also have a shelf with tons of board games (some missing a few pieces but that might make it more fun). Their loyalty program is nice, of course and I think sends you a discount for when you sign up? They've transitioned from a drink stampcard to a points-based system but I think it roughly works the same. I've also been here quite a lot to study and have not run into much difficulty in terms of getting work done. Good wifi, nice environment for studying - although as expected late evenings and especially Fridays and weekends can get quite busy. read more

Cute place with lots of sitting area for a boba place. There's also a sitting area outside. The girl behind the register was very nice and pleasant. It's my first time here and I mainly came to try their cha-mango. It did not disappoint. It's legit and something you would find at a Mexican joint., maybe even better because it's made with fresh mangos! My husband had their Vietnamese coffee and he liked it, he's usually pretty picky with his coffee. I tried my kids mango smoothie and it was also very tasty. Will definitely come back when we are in the area. read more

Magic Cup - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Chamango was refreshing but the mango pieces weren't not as ripe and soft as expected. The magic puffs aka beignet could've been better. Its more like a fought nugget. It's not as hollow and soft, fluffy as it should be. I'm from Houston and we have a few beignet places here and I've been to cafe du monde @ New Orleans a few times so I know how it should be and this isn't it. read more

Magic Cup - Chamango - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Cha Mango - PURE GENIUS! Best mango thing I've ever had!! We also tried voodoo chicken, basil calamari, tropical paradise and green tea matcha. All very tasty. This is a little gem of a teahouse with good atmosphere and very nice staff. I will definitely be back on my next trip to Dallas area...maybe even before I leave this time. read more

Not the creamiest milk tea I've ever had, but I'm definitely glad that Magic Cup uses real milk rather than powdered milk! I had just a regular milk tea with boba and egg pudding, and the tea flavor was potent! I wish I didn't live so far away, because I would have been a regular here, but maybe I'll stop by when I'm in the Richardson area. There were fun board games available for us to play with! Their Christmas decorations were so cute! We were allowed to vote for the best stocking decoration using our receipt. What a fun way to get the customers involved during the festive season! :) read more

This is my favorite boba place in Garland...But tonight i feel so disappointed about my drinks...I went to that place and it was so busy...I ordered the Strawberry peach tea and the jasmine milkfoam in Large size....When i took the cup in the plastic bag I didn't check it...and when i opened it...i saw them made it all wrong...the strawberry peach tea just peach tea only...not fruit bit..no syrup...had no taste at all...and the jasmine milk foam they made it in the small size....i know sometimes they too busy and something like that may happen...but i'm so sad when my drinks quality doesn't worth with money !!!! read more

A+ for their modern decor, but I've had better fruit teas at other places. I was impressed by the customer service, the cleanliness, and the decor. They have ample tables and a counter with high stools. They also have board games. I had their Fruit Tea Madness (mango, strawberry, lychee iced tea with strawberry, mango, and jelly), and it didn't really wow me. I think the addition of mango kind of threw the flavor off for me?? It was strange. It was kind of like the Red Galaxy from Bobaland but instead of basil seeds, they added mango chunks. I've also had the wintermelon tea. I was supposed to get their sea cream wintermelon tea, but I think they forgot the sea cream in my order... The boba is good here, but I also was not impressed with my wintermelon drink. A lot of people have raved about their Chamango; I just don't like spicy so I didn't opt to try it. read more

A nice little coffee shop tucked into the corner of an apartment complex. They offer coffee, boba, shakes and some other stronger delights. Staff are courteous and helpful. For a small deposit you can rent a board game and play with family and friends. I had a Thai coffee. It was truly an eye opener and was exactly what I needed read more

I heard about this a couple days ago, and just got sometime to experience it myself today. I came in and took a big deep look around the store, and FIRST YES - it is an awesome place for hanging out. I ordered a CHA- Mango and a Thai Tea and wait to see how they impress me. 3' later I got my orders in front of me and SECOND YES - my drinks look good and taste good. Thai tea is a little bit sweeter than I expected, but I can handle that. CHA- Mango is also really tasty and colorful. My third and biggest YES is their service! They are friendly and very polite! Plus, their uniform is so so cute tho! Another YES, I would highly recommend this place! read more

I love Magic Cup! It's right next to my house and they have a great and unique menu of drinks to choose from! My usual drink that my boyfriend and I order is the Cha-Mango, with an extra tamarind straw. We love to munch on the tamarind as we drink our mangonada! I've tried mangonadas at a couple different places and this is the best I've had so far. It's perfectly blended and doesn't taste like an artificial sweet either. They put just the right amount of mango vs. chili and I can't get enough!! The staff is friendly and they're SUPER fast and bringing out drinks too. The interior is cute and a great place to study. There's an outdoor seating area and they offer board games for when you come in with friends to hang out as well! If you're looking for a good mangonada and haven't tried one yet, you HAVE to try the Cha-Mango here! 10/10 recommend! read more

I really wanted to like this place, I just had a few issues during my experience today. First, I got a Thai milk tea with boba, pretty basic order, but it tasted horrible. I don't what it was, but it did not taste like what it's supposed to. Towards to end of the drink, it got a little watered down with the ice, and tasted better, but that's not when it's supposed to taste good. The coconut milk tea, was very coconutty, but not bad. Second, I asked to see their menu listing the snacks, because I was really excited about trying their kimchi fries or voodoo nuggets, but the girl told me that they won't serve food until winter.... I don't know when that started, but I was a little disappointed Third, you can't use a credit card without a $4 minimum purchase, which isn't really common in the Dallas area from my experience, but I was forced to order the large size of milk tea since I had no cash on me and pay more than I originally would have, just to be able to use my credit card. Fourth, they have games, but you have to put down a $10 deposit or give them your ID until your done using the game. I get it, because they don't want people to steal their games, so they ask for an incentive, but it's such a hassle and so unnecessary if you decide, you want to play a different game, and have to keep going back up there to switch out. Or if you're in a rush to leave, you have to go back and wait in line, to hand it back to them, and wait for you to get your ID back. The only thing I liked was that I got 10% off my total by checking in with Yelp. I was not too pleased with my experience, it was just ok. I will come back whenever they decide to serve food again, just to try it out, but this has not changed my life in a way for me to go out of my way and try it. read more

My fav Boba place. Milk tea is great from here but my favorite is a strawberry watermelon smoothie with popping boba

I haven't even tried the food yet, but the smoothies are great. Fresh fruit is definitely a huge plus over the other places that use only syrups or powders. They'll put some fruit at the bottom, some in the blended slush and then some on top too. Delicious. Service has been pretty quick and the place is clean. Pricing is on par with the other places, even cheaper than the other place that rhymes with Wrong Bra. ANYHOW. I have tried the Mango-Passion fruit slush with black boba and its great. The one complaint is that the mango was a little under ripe. We had the Watermelon slush with black boba last night and it was okay. It's not really a boba kind of drink. I will warn you that the white boba is not the same consistency of the black boba. If you don't know what I'm talking about, ask for a sample of the white boba before you put it in your drink. The Wife and I don't like it. We will definitely have to try the food next time we're there. I'm glad there's another boba shop near us! read more

Love love love this place. Their taro milk boba is one of the best. I love going to many boba places and this one definitely has some of the best. read more

Just got a 'green tea with boba' at 10:35pm and three coworkers cleaned while I waited for my drink. Made eye contact a few times haha I felt un valued because I came in close to closing time. When I walked outside, that is when she poured my drink and had it ready on the counter in a matter of seconds. Will stick with going to share tea although they just changed their close date to 10pm. read more

This place is the bomb. Their milk teas are the usual go tos and if I'm craving the mango slushy thingy, I'll get it too. If you're into tangy with a hint of spice you'll like it. Their popcorn chicken is also really good. Wanna know the best thing?! Customer service. They literally forgot my order and I was fine with it but they even upgraded it to a large. I'm totally coming back!! read more

Magic Cup - Jasmine Milk tea and coconut milk tea! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

over hyped, over rated, gross, and horrible customer service. Share Tea is way better. Never coming back. Also, Lynn (the manager) is rude.

The have an awesome choice of coffee and tea! Vietnamese Frappe is kind of a big deal here! I did try the matchas! Hang out place of mostly Asian American yuppies and students! They do have board games in the house and wifi as well! Good location. read more

Yum to avocado smoothies. It's my go to while I'm visiting. In my time of need, they were the only ones selling mangos when they were out of season. This was really to help feed my pregnant wife's craving. Gone to other bubble tea shops but this is the best. If so good, why not the 5 stars? Simple. It's a little hard to find the first time. Location is not bad - just not convenient. read more

Great service and super yummy drinks! Every time im in Richardson I have to stop by and get the caramel frappe coffee with boba! I also love how cute and clean the location is. Great for studying (if there's not a lot of people) or just for hanging out. Outdoor seating as well for nice days! read more

Magic Cup - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Magic Cup is so great! First, the employees were very very kind, friendly, attentive, and fast-working. Their kindness was one reason I came back! I've been twice so far and both times ordered the Cafe Sua Da - the Vietnamese coffee. I've never tried it before but decided to take the plunge - and I'm thankful I did it at Magic Cup! The employees let me taste a sample to make sure I was getting what I wanted. The second time i ordered the Cafe Sua Da with Boba- I love boba but now think Cafe Sua Da is perfect without it. The vibe of Magic Cup is perfect and better than any other Boba shop I've encountered. If I find myself in Richardson again I will be sure to come back! read more

Never got a chance to leave a review to say Thank You to the team at Magic Cup for an extraordinary experience for catering for our private party. Quick and thorough communication and they took care of everything we requested for our party, their delicious specialty drinks and tasty food. Big Thanks for making our event so memorable ! read more

Why do these Asian coffee/ tea place open so late? I will never understand this. You are loosing the people who want to grab a drink on their way into work. Most people don't start work at 10:30 or later in Richardson. The drinks are OK, but the hours really make it so that I am really going out of my way to get a drink. read more

I'm finally writing this review because I'm sick & tired of these little magic cup employees always acting like it's their daddy's shop. If I ask for extra boba & fruit AND PAY I expect EXTRA everything ! They're so damn stingy and make u feel like ur asking for too much in life with their stank face ! It's not that serious lord help these people read more

It's a great place to hang out with friends. They have many fun drinks ( tropical paradise, fruity madness, chamango, etc.) and food (voodoo chicken, fried wonton, etc.). The price is a little high compared to other boba tea places. read more

The cups here were super cute; they reflect the Dallas skyline! I had a hot chai caramel latte. It didn't have espresso, which is great because it was late evening. It was a great milk tea. I would definitely stop by again! read more

Cool place if you like boba. My favorite so far is Taro milk tea. It's not the best one I've had, but it's still good. Magic cup has nice, clean place with a patio outside. I only gave them 4 stars because sometimes the boba is either a bit over or undercooked. The staff is really nice and patient and the restrooms are clean. read more

We are never disappointed with the drinks at Magic Cup. Their Boba teas are always delicious but their Mangonadas are the BEST. The atmosphere is very cute and fun for a sip. Lucky to have an establishment like this close to us read more

It's been a while since I last reviewed, but today my wife is making me do an exception. Me and my wife have bought drinks from Magic Cup often, and have recommended it to our clients. But this time is probably the last time we'll be there. My wife came into order a small drink and some Voodoo chicken, and after waiting for 20 minutes didn't even get her order of food. Her drink came out first, but after waiting she decided to followup on her order. She spoke to the manager in charge, and was told that the cook forgot to turn on the oil. WTF! After her waiting around for 20 minutes, the staff didn't even notice that someone was waiting for their order, and much less their manager? Even when they were processing her order, the manager/clerk had to ask her what her order was. How observant. Maybe their service on drinks is quick, but don't bother with the food if you're in a hurry. read more

Friendly staff, and delicious Taro Milk Tea, my favorite! Reminded me of the boba I get back home in FL, thank you.

So checked this place out yesterday, and I'm pretty impressed on how they're trying to be unique from amongst all the other boba joints in the area. They have a wide array of drink choices, so I got the crowd favorite: tropical passion or something like that lol. It was Jasmine green tea with fruit bits of pineapple, strawberries, and mango. So good. But although it wasn't overloaded with sugar, it made me so hyper for some reason. Anyways drop by this place and see for yourself. Besides, it's always fun checkin out new boba joints. read more
