    Brown sugar milk tea with boba and pudding
    Rebeka S.

    Such an adorable little boba shop in Cinci. Parking was easy here since it's located in a plaza with a parking lot. The decors on the cafe walls make this place so fun and aesthetically cute. The calm & chill music gives this place a relaxing vibe, thus making it a great place to hangout and chat or even to study. Service is quick and servers themselves were very helpful. The milk tea here is exceptionally good. I'm more of a fruit tea person, but this milk tea blew me away! I think the boba was a bit overcooked in my drink, but the pudding was good and paired very nicely with the brown sugar in my milk tea. This place is so good and I wished they expanded their locations to potentially Columbus too. Overall, the boba here made my drive from Columbus to Cinci for my foodie adventures worth every minute!

    Again I'm finding places that I never even knew existed. Did a quick search for ice cream places and decided on this one since I've never had rolled ice cream before. Went with some friends and there were just two ladies working on a beautiful night. Lots of people were coming and they clearly needed more help, but did their best serving us as quickly as they could. They have a range of products like tea and boba and rolled ice cream and some cereal thing that I'm not really sure what it is. Prices are slightly high, but after seeing the process to make the rolled ice cream it definitely makes sense because it's a three-minute process, rather than a three-second scoop. A fun thing is you can have as many toppings as can fit in the bowl! I had the campfire delight and tried to make it s'more like - probably will leave off the chocolate chips next time because they were a bit too much of a crunch if you know what I mean. Apparently you can choose to have either one or two marshmallows. Fun to see them roast them on the spot. My friends and I had a nice time sitting outside, but they also have decent seating inside. Altogether, a yummy place, they just need more help to keep up with the crowd and not burn out the workers!

    Stopped here for a sweet treat. My kids really enjoy this place and so do I. It wasn't packed when we arrived (it typically is in the summer months) and service went smoothly and we were served within 4-8 minutes. One bonus is that once you've made your selection and the ice cream is done, you get to add any toppings you like with no extra charge. And lastly, they have some indoor seating, but also have a few more tables/chairs to sit outdoors when the weather is nice. Today the temp was around 58-60 so we were able to sit out and enjoy the sun before the temp dropped.

    I Milk Jar in Hyde Park this afternoon and I'm sorry to say, I won't be going back. My go to has always been the vanilla base with Honey Nut Cheerios and Banana with a caramel drizzle on top. Which is basically the Banana Pudding that they have on their menu, but with cereal instead of cookies. Today, I was told I can't order that. I was confused and asked the young lady to explain. She told me I had to order off the menu that is on the wall because they could not add Honey Nut Cheerios, which still didn't make any sense to me. First, because cereal should be cereal, regardless of which cereal you want and secondly, that's what I have always ordered and it was never a problem before. So, I asked again just to make sure I had not misunderstood what she said. She again told me they cannot add Honey Nut Cheerios. They can only put that cereal on top. Still confused, I asked why they can add Fruity Pebbles, Oreos, Graham crackers, Cinnamon Crunch and Nilla Wafers, which are all added to items on the menu, but not Honey Nut Cheerios. Thinking that perhaps that specific cereal was somehow a problem, but no. Her final answer was, "the company doesn't want people ordering whatever they want". Well, that was what used to make Milk Jar so great. You just told them what you wanted and they were happy to it for you. So, it's sad to know that after all these years the company no longer wants to make their customers happy and they want to decide which cereal from the cereals they offer we can add to our $7.00 cup of ice cream. anyway, I went to Aglamesis and was able to order exactly what I wanted.

    This place has many things you can choose from, from rolled ice cream, shakes and teas with lots of different toppings

    Thai ice tea, Jasmine green tea with milk cap, Yammy taro
    Si Siew T.

    I'm back here againnn!! I was determined to find the perfect sweetness level for Yammy taro. Got 25% this time.. and conclude that I should have gotten 50% or maybe 75% (will update with the perfect combination) Got Jasmine green tea milk cap as that was the very first drink that made me fell for milk jar had it again after awhile and I got to say, still my favorite. Might go there again this weekend who knows

    Thai Milk Tea with Boba
    Natalie R.

    Food: 4.7/5 My go-to here is the Thai milk tea with boba, but they also have rolled ice cream and other yummy treats I've tried. They have an extensive menu, so there is lots to choose from. Sometimes, the rolled ice cream isn't rolled super tight, and sometimes, the boba is super stuck together, but overall, this is one of my favorite dessert spots. Service: 3.5/5 The service is fine. Teas are pretty fast, but ice cream is slow. Additionally, if it's a busy time, it can really slow down. There are a few staff members who have been there a while, and it's a treat to see familiar faces, but it feels like a lot of young teenagers working. Atmosphere: 4/5 When this place first opened, it looked super clean and cute. It still looks cute but now has a sticky film over all the tables. The chalkboard used to be cute, but now is a bit of a mess. They also have limited seating, which, when full, can mean you have to stand to wait.

    I haven't seen many boba shops in the area, so I was excited to try this place out. However, I probably won't return after my visit. The interior is small and quiet. Service was fast. Here is my review: *Ceylon Black Milk Tea (75% sugar, less ice, with boba) - I'm glad I ordered this with less sugar because it's sweet enough at 75%. The boba is good, chewy and sweet but nothing special. The tea base is lackluster. Even though I got less ice, the drink was really watered down after a few sips, completely diluting the tea flavor. This drink cost $6.42, which is pretty expensive considering the size and what you get. Taking everything into consideration, this drink was pretty disappointing and I wouldn't get it again.

    Rolled ice cream: monkey business (banana and nutella)

    Delightful rolled ice cream on the cold stone! The monkey business (banana and nutella) tasted absolutely delicious!! Definitely wanting to taste this again!! So fresh and flavorful!

    My husband and I came here the other day because a coffee shop was closed and this was pretty nearby. I'm only going to give this place three stars because our drinks were just way too sweet. Felt like diabetes in a cup and I really had to choke it down. Also their menu has a lot of options but it actually can be overwhelming. The service was just okay, nothing special. The place was clean, but the drinks were just overly sweet. I'm not sure if I could ask for a different amount of sweetness but they should definitely put a sign if we could.

    4  ·  Shared with Public My son picked up my order for me, and there was no Boba, and the drink is wrong. The order was correct (it says so on the label) The Crestview Hills location was fantastic when you first opened, but consistently my drink is wrong and no one makes it right. The last time the gal said it was right (it was sweet milk, no tea) she argued with me and then the girl who made it said she couldn't read her handwriting and made it wrong. No apologies or anything, just eye rolls. This time it was missing the boba and had a splash of tea. For $6+ and they expect a tip, you would think they'd get your order right. It's a "house drink" nothing special. This is a Boba tea shop right?

    Oolong tea with milk cap and boba
    Karen C.

    Milk Jar is my favorite place to grab bubble tea in Cincinnati. The teas are rich and full of flavor. The tapioca pearls are always chewy and consistent. Parking is super convenient. I like to grab the oolong milk tea or the matcha strawberry latte. It's always a treat coming here. If you're unsure of anything, the staff is always helpful and happy to answer questions.

    Topping selection
    Sandy E.

    Finally found this place to try their rolled ice cream and bubble tea. Loved the monkey business rolled ice cream topped with a variety of sweets! I really liked their variety of toppings to choose from. Their bubble tea was pretty good but I'm used to the bubble tea to be a little bit more sweet than what they offered. Will definitely back to try their other sweets next time! On a side note, not impressed with their bathroom cleanliness. That really needs some additional attention. Also, I would recommend doing something about the flies in there.
