When I felt the tapioca enter my digestive system, I could feel it break down in my small intestine. The flavor was so amazing and really entered my soul.

All the drinks I've had here are so good! Sweet and refreshing with quality boba. I definitely recommend their Wintermelon Milk Tea. One of the best milk teas I've ever had read more

Sad about my experience! Snow monster sound great and is a really cute shop, and I've heard great things about it. But, when I went there was not many vegan options and no employee to walk me through menu, and when I was finally ready to order, I couldn't find staff. Eventually came and u ordered the (overpriced ) drink. Then, I took one sip and realized it want what I had ordered! Employee redid it eventually but no discount or apology but so disappointed in my experience. read more

I really enjoyed my first experience at the Snow Monster in Koreatown so I decided to check this one out. It did not disappoint. The location is on a busy street of Long Beach. There is lots of shops and restaurants in the area. This is the perfect place for dessert on a hot day. Parking is located on the street. The place is clean and there's two stories. The upper level is more cozy and better for bigger groups. There is no elevator to reach the 2nd floor only one set of stairs. The water dispenser is downstairs. It would've been nice if there was a second dispenser upstairs because the cups are small. The staff was friendly and quick to take your order. My favorite item to order are the ice cream macarons. There are different flavored macarons and a variety of ice cream. The fun part is coming up with what ice cream macaron flavor you're going to enjoy. I ordered the toffee crunch macaron with chocolate ice cream. It was delicious and as always the macaron was huge. The macaron was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was a good combination of flavors. read more

Love their drinks and the whole vibe of the cafe! My friend ordered an iced matcha and I ordered the strawberry milk. Both so good and not too sweet! What initially brought me to visit this cafe was their ice cream macarons! Which are customizable to what you would prefer. They also sold very beautiful flowers too which I found very charming. We luckily scored a parking spot right in front of the cafe too. I also like how their location is in between many shops and boutiques as well. My tip is to remember to bring your coins! read more

My family was looking for a nearby boba place and Snow Monster happened to show up! I wanted something light and refreshing (It was a hot day) so I ordered the Sunrise Passion Fruit Tea. I really liked the addition of real passion fruit, sliced strawberries, an orange slice, and lime slices. The drink itself tasted really good and if you don't like your drinks to be really sweet, you have the option of getting it less sweeter. I also had a small sip of the thai tea which tasted like how any other thai tea would taste (Pretty standard). Good place overall and is worth visiting at least once if you're in the area. read more

Snow Monster was a fun novelty stop with my friend from out of state. We enjoyed the light bulb glass, the fun menu choices and the cute macaroons. We got a lychee tea with mango popping bubbles, a Thai tea with tapioca boba, and a strawberry macaroon with cookies and cream ice cream. The lychee tea was so great, had whole lychees in it and I loved it. Unfortunately it had way too much sweetener in it. The Thai tea was very good, and its dairy free which is really nice. The macaroon was good, but the ice cream was WAY too sweet, I should have sampled first. read more

Everything I expected this place to be. DC/MD/VA area is famous for using powered milk for us lactose guys but Snow Monster offers non-dairy milk with your milk tea. Much appreciated. The milk tea itself was not sweet so it was a perfect balance with the rainbow cloud (cotton candy & fruity pebbles) The lightbulb is a perfect souviner for cali bubble tea, would definitely make this a west coast stop since there are plenty of snow monster chains scattered around! read more

My best friend and I are huge macaroon lovers! I mean, who isn't?! If you're not, you're nuts! We had talked about coming here together and finally did on 5/5. I ordered a strawberry macaroon with vanilla ice cream. Simple but very delicious. The macaroon was soft and chewy. My friend ordered an adorable almond cloud macaroon and the flavor of ice cream I don't remember unfortunately. The fruity pebble macaroon seem to be popular, it was sold out when we went. Can't speak about the drinks since we didn't try any but the macaroon ice cream sandwich I recommend. read more

Great desserts, fast service.....what more could you want? Love their ice cream sandwiches. You have to try all their combinations! read more

So unorganized. They were out of boba, oatmeal cookies etc at noon. She asked me if it's a problem being out of boba..ughh yes it's a problem I came here for my lunch break from work and had to find and pay for metered parking which parking was a headache. Anyway, I opted for the ice cream because that was in stock. Overall, I might come back to try their boba. read more

Giggle I saw this place on Best Things on Food Network. Knew I was headed to California and put it on the list of stops. What a fun joint. Thai tea is a favorite of mine so what better than to order Thai tea with a cloud!!?? Look through the pictures, that's me in the pinkish top peeking out from behind a cloud and grinning like an 8 year old. read more

Finally made it to a Snow Monster location! I have seen them pop up all over the place and there is always a big crowd! My coworker also highly recommended this place so I decided to check it out. Basically go here for a really good ice cream sandwich or boba milk tea! I ordered the horchata ice cream and the toffee macaron for the sandwich portion. My friend ordered the honey milk tea. The tea was very good. They gave her a sample first since we had never been to the location before and the sample was so large she had plenty for me to try! The sandwich was amazing. Best macaron I have ever had by far. I like how they are a bit larger than the average macaron so there is more fluffy interior. And when I say fluffy I mean super fluffy! The macaron was my favorite part. It was hard to eat it like a sandwich for me because it was so large but I didn't mind breaking up the cookie with a spoon and enjoying it that way. I will definitely be back again soon to one of their many locations! read more

They no longer sell Shaved Ice, the Oreo Stuffed Cookies, Matcha-related drinks and other menu items. For now, they're only offering: Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches, some Cold Drinks and Speciality Drinks (which includes the Cotton Candy "Cloud") But, it's a bummer...this was our First visit, and we were greatly anticipating the cookies, shaved ice and the Matcha Strawberry drink, only to be told, "We no longer serve those. Sorry. It's because we're always changing and trying to offer newer things." I somewhat understand the logic behind this marketing strategy, but, some things are too good to get rid of, right?Anyway, it's ok. The drinks are pretty average for milk tea/dessert places. Mind you, I didn't try the macaroons & ice cream, so I have no opinion on that aspect yet. We ordered: 2 Thai teas with mochi and grass jelly toppings (instead of boba) & 1 honey milk tea with Chocolate Chip toppings (instead of boba) And we also bought (2) 32 oz re-fillable mason glass jars. Perhaps if we are ever around again, and crave some milk tea, we just might stop-by with them. The interior is modern-contemporary and has a nice 2nd floor to offer more seating. It's a great place for hanging out with friends or company. But, the reduction of the menu is a little saddening. read more

It was well recommended. However, the service was horrible. The place had barely anyone there. The two girls were chatting away, and did not service me when I arrived. Instead services the person behind me. I then proceeded to wait 28 minutes while they made two drinks and a cup of ice cream. The boba was good but not worth the visit. I don't feel right to recommend this place to my friend or enemies.The Boba Guys has better service and just as good products! read more

Mini Monster Cafe - Boba - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Beach, California

My girlfriend and I stopped by Snow Monster on Monday night when our sweet-treat craving was tingling. We scoured Yelp for something delicious and Instagram worthy and wound up picking Snow Monster. Be prepared for the sugar high of your life and to dig deep into those pockets for a crisp $20 b/c that's what you'll be spending if you're on a date (unless you can swing it to share the dessert - but who wants to share the dessert when you want to take home the jar as a souvenir). We had: Rainbow cloud with sunrise passion fruit tea; includes cotton candy around the rim, fruity pebbles bc why not, and we asked for HALF sugar on the boba tea (thank god or I woulda left more squirrley than I already was) Thankfully, I'm in a relationship so I was able to get us to share the drink while I kept the jar *evil laugh* and it was totally okay. *currently sipping water from my Snow Monster jar* While my girlfriend and I were here, we saw a dude on what looked like a first date. The poor guy purchased two of the souvenir jars (each like $10) and some french macarons ($$). The stone silent look on his face when he went to pay was priceless though read more

This establishment requires a mask. Please respect stores' requirements and the safety of employees and the community so that businesses can remain open. Came here on Sunday after lunch. Big place but since COVID there are no tables out and the upstairs is blocked off. The front store (where tables and seating area use to be) is now a small shop display supporting/selling Wildflower Co. items (forever flowers, candles, bath bombs) and selling stickers, keychains, etc. The menu is on the TV screen display but at a height level for everyone to see (kids include) which was genuinely nice where we do not have to look up. However, people in the back/behind can't see, which causes people to come and hover over you [inside me scream, ~4ft apart please]. It was so pretty busy and only ONE person was working. She took orders and made the orders, 2-3 at a time. Waited about 25minutes for me to order and another 15-20 minutes to get my one drink. My drink was just okay, strong jasmine tea flavor and sweet. I really dislike companies that do lone workers (having one employee working). The stress and the impact on that one person running a big store are not enough. Why? Because one consumer was asking how much a flower was, but she was too busy making orders that she did not hear her. Since the line to order was long, the consumer just left instead. read more

We walk down here almost daily. Most of the time, a unique flavor of one of the nummy items in the menu catches the mood and we spring for a small macaron and 1 large with ice cream center. We've never been disappointed! It's always delicious, & the staff are always friendly, super patient with indecision, and willing to offer helpful suggestions. We love the taro ice cream, the Thai tea mini and the vanilla sunflower giant macaron. So delicious! Highly recommended! read more

In the age of social media, I completely get the appeal of Snow Monster. Everything is so freaking cute you can't help but share it on Instagram or Snapchat. The logo, the cups, and the macarons are all adorable. Based on looks alone, I picked the girly cloud macaron cookies with brown butter ice cream. It was so fun that I didn't want to eat it. Well, eventually I did try to eat it and that's when I realized fresh macarons do not make a good "sandwich" base because they crumble immediately. Also, the cookies plus the macarons was just sweetness overload. I couldn't even finish it. Final verdict - visit once, take your pics, and move on to another place. read more

Absolutely delicious Thai tea boba and taro milk tea boba. My girlfriend and I love coming here for these two flavors and the ambiance is both welcoming and chill......BUT : we brought our own hydro flasks with the intention of not using single use plastic and the friendly staff informed us that they wouldn't be able to fill them, since management doesn't allow them to pour drinks in anything besides their own Monster cups. We love coming here but we do hope this message reaches the owners regarding single use plastic and can accommodate to their customers who are making an effort to be more environmentally conscious. P.s the reusable bottles with the monster logo are 8 dollars. Profit VS environment = read more

My 15yo daughter and I have been here twice and both times we were underwhelmed. The store is super cute, the tea and macaroons were tasty but the service was blah... On our first trip I explained to the cashier that we had never been before but she didn't really sell us on anything in particular. I had to ask a lot of questions and I felt like I was bothering her. Then I decide to only get two macaroons and no ice cream but she informs me that it's the same price. You can't get it separately. We also got Thai tea. After we sat down, I was able to read the fine print on the menu board and they offer a cute, reusable jar for your drinks. Why didn't the cashier inform me of that? I have my cute teenage daughter with me who would have loved it! Plus, if it's the company's mission to help the environment that seems like an important up-sell that the employees should push. However, I think the environment isn't that important to them because they still have plastic straws and no paper ones. The second trip was worse than the first. A different cashier, who seemed angry about life, was less helpful than the first one and did not try to up-sell the reusable drink jar either. I didn't want to ask her about it because she seemed upset. And I still put a dollar on the tip screen when I paid even though she was anti-friendly because I didn't want to make her more mad. I'll go back a few more times because I do like the Thai tea and they had some interesting flavors of different drinks I would like to try. I just wish the owners would hire happy, helpful people to make it a pleasant experience that matches the pleasant aesthetic of the store. read more

I love their decor upstairs and service goes by fairly quick. This location is a lot bigger than the other one in a Garden Grove and has plenty of seating. I ordered the jasmine milk tea which I've tried at their other location in Garden Grove and I recall it tasting pretty great, so I don't know if it's me and my taste buds but after the first few sips, the sweetness started to really settle down until it was no longer sweet. My friend had the same experience but order it at their other location and it just wasn't sweet at at. Maybe just an off day? I asked the cashier on popular suggestions for their ice cream macaron and the horchata ice cream/churro macaron combo was a hit, and it was great! read more

This place is so extra but it's fun and makes for great instagram photos! We bought the honey milk tea w/boba in a light bulb with the flower crown (and was able to reuse the elastic flower crown for our small dog as a cute floral decorative collar). We also got the almond cloud shaped macaron ice cream sandwich with horchata ice cream. It's huge and super filling as a snack/dessert! Service was good here, there's ample seating inside and a couple of tables outside which is where we sat with the dogs. read more

Okay so I just was treated so poorly by a woman who worked today at 2pm at this location. She was so harsh, condescending, and just honestly a Bitch. You walk into a beautiful boba place and you are in awe of the cuteness and beauty. And then your greeted by the total opposite. I will totally admit I don't know much about Boba and I ordered a drink that doesn't contain milk. When she gave us our orders and may I add she made the drinks with such an attitude. I was thinking should we just leave? Her energy was very unwelcoming. So when I received my order I was scared to say anything about having milk in my drink. My boyfriend spoke up and nicely asked if she could put a dab of milk in and she was of course so rude. Of course she had an attitude and made me feel so bad. Never will be back due to this woman who clearly isn't doing well. Hope she gets some self care. She needs to light the candles they sell there and take home a plant and be a nice person. read more

Gross. I don't understand why this place has such good reviews. I had half an inch of sugar sitting at the bottom of my taro milk tea, I have NEVER seen this before.

To be fair this place actually has a great ambiance but Snow Monster has always just been a middle of the road boba location for me and this place is no different. The bulb cups are fun and the cafe itself is really comfortable. The milk tea is just average, tilting towards the more sweet side, almost too sweet for me. It's also not too far away from the beach for some good vibes! read more

Finally got to come here after I bookmarked it when it opened. After going to the Huntington Beach location and enjoyed it and was looking forward to this one opening up since it's closer by. So after Simmzy's this was on the back to car so of course we had to come here and Nadine had to get the light bulb glass for Jules back home lol. So the menu is no different and this location is bigger than the Huntington Beach location. There are a few tables and there is a second level with more tables. I didn't know what I wanted this time but I did want to get the camera lens mug I know for what I don't know just to display lol. I ended up just getting a Jasmine Milk tea simple drink. Overall I like this location only downside again is dealing with street parking. Glad I was able to check off another bookmark. read more

This place is absolutely delicious please come to upstate New York. I was visiting and I brought my mom over because I was craving Boba but wow they don't just have Boba they do shaved ice, macaroon ice cream sandwiches, shaved ice crazy goodness everything, cotton candy and more. I really do love the way it's set up here and the smaller menu makes it nice and easier to decide. The service was a little slow even though there was nobody in line they may have been understaffed but at the end of the day they were really friendly and let me sample the two teas I was in between. I absolutely am an original tea kind of girl so I got the honey black milk tea and I would get it again. Their thai tea was also very delicious but a lot more sweeter! Great pistachio macaroons probably their #1 seller and my mom got the vanilla ice cream In between. $12 for all that including the souvenir light bulb glass. read more

Best boba in Long Beach. Snow Monster has some deliciously fresh bobas. But I take offense that they charge me $5 for a pre-mixed drink that they pour into a cup right in front of you. Kinda takes away from the magic that is barista-ing. I've tried a bunch of things here... The lemonade, the ice cream, the cookie within a cookie. The only thing I feel comfortable ordering here is the almond milk thai tea. Everything else I can live without. Don't let me sway you from coming here. It's a cool space & again their boba is Long Beach's best IMO. read more

This place gives you an INSANE amount of boba when you order it in the lightbulb-shaped container. It doesn't even cost extra to use that over the plastic cup! And if you bring it back then you get a discounted drink. I LOVE boba, so this was absolute heaven for me!
