A solid pick for boba if you're in the area, and want a lot of options, especially for a large group! I've never tried the ice cream, but they always have enticing, unique flavors, which excite me and my friends whenever we visit. It's kind of hard to find guava as a flavor for fruit tea, but they have it here, which I opted for this visit. I really enjoyed this! The boba texture is great, and half sweet wasn't too sweet! Love that this is attached to a great pho spot, because it's the perfect sweet treat post-meal. The drinks come out so fast, and it looks like they do fun community events (cup sleeve events, themed drinks, etc.) so that's super cool too!
Boba places are popping up all over town and the main quality I look for when it comes to these types of establishments is the quality of the boba. Some places don't know how to cook boba correctly, so, they end up tasting funky or they are too hard or too soft. Milk Run has the science of cooking boba down! It's soft and has the right chew. Its got a nice flavor and they give a gracious amount per drink. I'm also impressed by their matcha quality. After I stirred my Matcha Milk Tea, its color was still a bold green which a lovely switch-up the common diluted matcha drink. 5 Stars!!!! Just know, PARKING SUCKS ON WEEKENDS!
Great spot to enjoy cold deserts! I love the rich and authentic flavors including Vietnamese coffee, matcha, taro, and Thai tea. The ice cream floats are especially delicious. I like to request lower sweetness levels. Perfect spot to enjoy desert after pho next door!
10/10 . We both loooved our drinks and wish there were more locations. The service was very quick and efficient. And even though we're here for just a few days, we are DEFINITELY coming back to get more of the menu
Have been here a few times over the years; usually not a thai tea drinker, but I like to go here for it. A little too sweet for me this time. I remember the thai tea ice cream also being pretty great. Drinks were served quickly and the place was clean.
I didn't give them a 5 because they didn't greet us and the boba wasn't anything special. We had the sunset with crystal boba and the brown sugar milk tea with boba. It did come out really quickly I just don't think I'd make a special trip out for this. The prices are reasonable and we did like the layers in our drinks!
Stopped by on a Thursday evening craving something sweet and opted for their ice cream made in house, specifically a single scoop of Cookie Monster. The ice cream was dense but soft and creamy, which I found to be PERFECT! I ate it so quickly I forgot to take a picture of my cup, which I found to be a perfect portion size for single scoop-- not too big or too small. They offer an impressive variety of flavors, shown in my photo. Their overall menu is also impressively large. I am excited to come back for a casual friend hangout and try out more ice cream, milk tea, or blended drinks!
It was just alright in my opinion . Very crowded parking lot , good options , maybe I ordered the wrong thing with taro ( I thought I was a safe choice ?) . My boyfriend got Nutella milk tea and it just tastes like thick chocolate milk ? I don't know . Likely won't be back :/
Great reliable boba place! It's attached to the restaurant Pho Thanh, perfect for a sweet treat after dinner. Their vietnamese sea salt coffee is one of my fave viet coffees in the valley. The thai tea is really good too. I came in today and ordered both of these. Accidentally spilled my drink :/ but one of the girls who works here cleaned it all up for us and was kind enough to give us a new thai tea. She really didn't have to do that so thank you for amazing service!
The milkiest and tastiest Thai Tea in town! Also, a big plus it's that it is right next door to Pho Thanh so we took advantage and while we were waiting for our pho we went to get our drinks and enjoyed them alongside our food. It is super convenient for them to be neighbors, you must try both!
I loved the matcha latte with boba! The matcha was the best flavor i've had! The drink was the perfect sweetness, had to come back for another!
This is one of my go-to boba places in Phoenix. The price is in line with most other comparable places, their hours are convenient, and the service is consistently good. When it comes to ordering a milk tea, they have the usual suspects for flavors. I think their strengths are in the fruity and sparkling drinks. Their Arizona Sunset tea is more than just a pretty picture, and I also love the jasmine tea with cheese foam. They have a range of sizes and ability to customize. The boba quality is solid. If you live nearby or come often, it's worth it to give them your phone number for the loyalty program. They also do ice cream, but it's a little on the pricier end and not really a stand-out to me.

I have been to Milk Run several times, but never had a chance to write a review. I always like their Thai Tea and Taro milk teas. Always ordered them with less ice and 25% sugar. They always come filled all the way to the top that they spill a little bit when you have to put the straws in. To me, it's always worth it to up size it. The staff are always nice and helpful. They're also patient when you have questions or trying to decide what to order. The place doesn't have a big sitting area. Most people don't sit in. Maybe because they also go next door for the pho or like me, just order out. read more

Nice little shop that connects to a really good Pho restaurant. The drink was really tasty, and the texture and taste of the Boba were just perfect. Will return to try more drinks! read more

Drinks are tasty and affordable. I got the Thai tea float which includes Thai tea and Thai ice cream. It was $6.50 before tax. The workers are decently nice. It's pretty normal ambiance, quiet at times, but sometimes noisy. read more

Friends, if you're in the mood for a refreshing treat, the Milk Run is the spot!!! Located on 17th Ave and Camelback, this place is super cool with a HUGE menu. The team here is friendly and helpful, helping you to understand what everything on the menu is. My favorite is the Taro Smoothie with Milk Boba. Stop by, grab a treat, and stay and chat!!! Strongly recommend. Score: A+ read more
Updating my review! It's been a few years since my last one and I've had more visits here. I like to be on this side of town so I can redeem some discounts and freebies, and this time I had 25% off so I stopped by. I ordered their Vietnamese iced coffee with less ice and honey boba. I thought about getting less sugar too but I think I needed it today. It was made fairly quickly as there was only one person in front of me. My drink was good, very sweet as expected and the boba was made well. They have a few tables and chair available and decent amount of parking during off peak hours, but I can see the lot getting full on nights and weekends. I'll probably be back! read more
One of the tastiest milk tea I've had in the US. It had genuine flavor of Thai tea, a gorgeous deep orange color, chewy boba that stayed intact for hours. In fact, I saved some of the tea for the next day because I didn't want to drink it all in one go and the boba was still perfect. That is amazing. And seriously, look how pretty that tea is, sigh! Service was quick and friendly. We got a table and stayed for a bit, it was a chill ambiance. The store is located in a bare lot, not much to see, but it's bright and inviting inside the store. Plenty of parking outside. read more
The drinks were great and we were happy to see dairy free options as one of us in our party has a dairy allergy. The service was fast and simple and the menu has a little bit of everything. The workers were kind and patient as well. There weren't many tables to sit at and the one that was open was pretty sticky so we ended up drinking our drinks outside. Next time we'll get our drinks before going to the restaurant so we can have them with our food! read more

Milk run was my favorite boba spot when I was living in Arizona. It is next to a Vietnamese restaurant that supposedly is the same owner as this shop. Parking is tough because the lot is very small. Service is very welcoming and friendly. The milk tea is super delicious and creamy. The boba is super fresh and chewy. They also have ice cream and they have Asian flavors like black sesame, ube, Thai tea.. so cute! Their ice cream is super yummy and not overly sweet. Loved this spot so much! Would definitely recommend. read more
We absolutely love this place because it serves our all-time favorite ice cream flavor....Taro. It's definitely worth the trip from Surprise to get not just one or two pints, but a whole GALLON (although you won't see it in the picture) to take home. As an added bonus, we also tried their milk float, which is like a milk tea with the ice cream flavor on top - a delightful combination! We couldn't resist getting several taro milk teas to-go for our parents and sister. My nephew got a scoop of Cookie Monster ice cream with colorful sprinkles on top (not shown in the picture), and I decided to try something different today - the matcha milk tea with boba. It was incredibly refreshing, fresh, and absolutely delicious. We're already looking forward to our next visit to try another mouthwatering item from their menu. P.S. - They do military discount as well. Definitely supporting this establishment. read more

Milk Run is my now my favorite go-to spot for cheap yummy boba! My boyfriend and I decided to check out Milk Run after finishing up dinner. Surprised that there was a line late at night, but I can def see why. The boba here is way cheaper than in California for $4.75 for a 24 oz and $5.25 for a 32 oz. We ended up getting the Tropical Iced Tea and Thai Tea. The Tropical Iced Tea was super refreshing. It's a peach, mango, pineapple iced tea with peach/mango bits and your choice of either black/green/jasmine tea. We got it with green tea and it was super yummy. The Thai Tea was also great as well. The only compliant I would have was that I wished the custard pudding was just as is and not chopped up. It was a different texture then what I'm used to when I add pudding to my boba. Overall, not bad! I def would come back and try their other drinks. read more

This is my go to Boba spot in Phoenix. Everything I've tried has been delicious, especially their ice cream. I've been coming here for a few years now and always bring new friends and out of town family to try it out. Super cute vibes, menu is displayed easy for you to find something good to try. Service is always hit or miss. Very nonchalant staff, love their ice cream and drinks tho. read more
This boba shop was quite far from me and decided to take the journey as I heard a lot about this place. The shop is not just a boba shop but also has ice cream. Their ice cream is just as good if not better than the boba! The place was a little slow to serve our order but there was plenty of seating. The boba I got was really good, I got Thai tea with ice cream. The combo of ice cream float in my boba was amazing and highly recommend. read more

First time in. They are connected to pho thanh so we stopped by after lunch. My son and I both got the sweet gold smoothie. I got the large with boba. The boba was fresh. You could still feel it was warm in the cup. Once it cooled down it was super yummy. The smoothy had good consistency of smoothy to pieces of fruit.. though it did melt a bit at the bottom due to the warm boba. The service was quick and friendly. There aren't a lot of places to sit though... So be aware of that. Also, with dome lids, the boba straw wasn't tall enough for the large so I couldn't enjoy it on my way home. Service 5/5 Quality 4.5/5 (kind of wish my drink hadn't been melted as much as it had...) Seating 3/5 (3-4 tables and two small benches. The benches were by the pick-up area) Enjoyment 4/5 (loved the drink... But the straw issue... Not so much. Need to do a flat lid for larges with boba.) Overall experience 4/5 Would I go back? Yes. read more

Is the ice cream non dairy?
Most are not. The have a non dairy coconut vanilla option and it's pretty good.
Are only single-use cups allowed, or can customers bring in their own Milk Run bottles again?
They are only using the recyclable single-use plastic cups right now. They will be using the bottles again in the future; they just don't know when.
Are there any Sugar free options or one that uses Stevia instead of real sugar?
Not at this time unfortunately. As a diabetic I asked recently and no options
Is this store still open? Tried coming a few times during business hours but the store was closed and locked up. Is it open now?

I just recently started living a vegan lifestyle and would love to know if you guys replace milk with coconut milk or almond milk at all? Also is your ice cream is dairy free by any chance?
