I love the mango drinks here! They have a lot of self service machines so that you can quickly and easily order the drink you like most! There are also photos of the drinks and a description of what is in each drink so you can choose what you are in the mood for! This location is right next to the UT campus so it is very convenient. Parking is a bit of a hassle during busy times since they only have street parking, which is often full during the daytime. But there is plenty of seating here for anyone who wants to grab tea and study or get some work done. I usually do 70% sweet and add boba! Every mango and strawberry drink I have tried has always been a huge hit. But the super fruit tea tasted a bit more medicinal than I would have liked. Overall, this is one of my go to boba places when I'm visiting Austin!
Love this boba place! I got their taro milk tea (large, 50% sugar, less ice) and it was so delicious! They use real taro, not powder and you can taste the freshness. The amber boba is chewy and goes wonderfully with the drink. Parking may be difficult to find. You may try finding street parking inside West Campus (the area behind the shops with the apartments).
Moge Tee is expensive but so good. This is a nice spot near campus to catch up with friends. They have wifi, although the music is quite loud, so it's more of a chatty place than a work environment. I I used one of their faulty ordering tablets, which appears to force customers to tip, but the others did not have that same issue. I hope someone reads this and gets it fixed. I had the brown sugar milk tea, which was delicious. I paid $8 for the large drink, which was very pricey but a nice occasional treat.
Parking is tight. You can order from any of the kiosks. You'll listen to your order number being called out to grab your drinks. Great place to study - all the tables have outlets to charge your electronic devices. It would get crowded during normal hours bc it's in the heart of UT. Creme Brulee Milk Tea - this is nothing like Feng Cha's Creme Brulee Milk Tea. It's more of a lighter, brown sugar milk tea. Yogurt Watermelon Tea - watermelon flavoring is Creme Brulee Matcha Milk Tea - strong matcha flavor
I have loved boba all my life, but this is the first boba shop that has made me fall in love with a drink. I am in love with the mango tea slush with cheese foam. Every time I get that drink, I fall in love with life again and it brings me happiness. For general drink recommendations, I obviously recommend the mango tea slush. The tea slushes do come in different flavors if mango is not your vibe. I've tried the grape, watermelon, strawberry, and mango. All of them have been amazing but mango is my favorite! They do use real fruit in their slushes, which is why I think I like them so much. They taste very refreshing with the real fruit. I recommend adding cheese foam too. The drinks here aren't that sweet, so I typically go with 100% sweetness (generally do 75% or 50% at other boba shops). I have tried a few milk based drinks from here and they were okay. I would need to try a few more of those drinks to give a full review.
One of several boba spots on the block about a mile from downtown Austin. Worth the walk. The green tea boba with lemon, 30% sweet, light ice had a nice flavor. The boba was a little soft, but still very good. Would order again if I were here. B ordered a grape slush cheese foam drink that reminded me of a sweet creamsicle. Not my kind of drink, but he liked it.
Had to check out a boba shop while in town & this was conveniently a 10 min walk from the hotel I was staying at. Since this is located on the main, Guadalupe Street, I'm not if there were any other parking available besides street parking. It may not look like much from the outside but it's a super cute place inside. There were a handful of iPad kiosk to order from - plus there's pictures which I appreciate. Of course, seeing that they have fresh taro options, I had to get one. I went with the taro tofu pudding milk with boba (I would've went with milk tea option but it was already late in the day and I wanted to make sure I get sleep). I asked the worker there for her suggestion on sweetness level and she recommended 0%.. and mentioned I liked a little bit of sweet so she then said 30%.. but I ended up getting 50%. To be honest, after mixing the drink up, I should've went with 100% or even 75% sweetness because there was barely any sweetness. Regardless, it was a refreshing drink for the hot weather but definitely would a higher sweet level for this drink. Plus, I was surprised that the pricings here weren't much different from bay area's. Also, it's conveniently located near the university.
I was surprised to see a large boba tea franchise appear in Austin before anywhere in California. MÖGE TEE has locations in 15 other states while the Golden State will be debuting a few stores soon according to their website. This spot is located in a heavy vehicle traffic corridor of the UT campus. Nearby curbside parking is available if you pay at a kiosk. It was difficult to cross Guadaloupe St from W 20th St because the crosswalks were further up or down the block. The inside of the store was clean and modern. The first thing that grabbed my attention was the lack of a cashier. All orders were placed at one of several stations that had a screen to choose your items. After paying and receiving a number, you waited for your order to be called out. Their drink offerings were standard with most of the campus boba tea shops including the option of cheese foam or yogurt. The presence of basic maki rolls on the menu seemed out of place though. I picked a Super Fruit Tea which had ingredients of fresh watermelon, orange, lime, and lemon mixed with freshly brewed green tea. Light ice and the addition of chewy regular bubble (i.e. boba pearls) were my modifications. The price was a sticker shock at $5.95 for a regular size and $0.75 for the bubble. Adding tax and gratuity created a tab of over $8 which was hefty for something less than a large sized drink. The wait time wasn't too bad, maybe about 10 minutes since the store was moderately busy with students. The fruit flavors and tea quality were good but like a few other reviewers, I docked one star from my rating because the value did not match the competition.
I came here late night right before they closed! I loved how you can place your order in a kiosk and it's very user friendly. I was very happy I had the option to select oat milk over whole milk! Makes a huge difference and I've been to many boba places that did not have that option. I ordered the purple yam with oat milk and boba. VERY TASTY! My order was out in all of 2 minutes. Definitely would come back. Only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5 is because when I walked in I made eye contact with the employee and she didn't greet me at all. Not a "hello" or "welcome"... little things like that make a difference.
As you walk on the drag, you'll notice a section where about 4-5 tea shops compete for your love and affection. Mogee Tee is the latest addition to the strip and is a tough contender that's here to stay. I ordered the Cheese Foam Rose Oolong Tea, which was the easiest thing to slurp down, especially with it's no-straw "sippy cups". Sadly, not vegan friendly on the milk teas, as they use dairy powder.
Solid boba place offering many options, high quality ingredients and a cute atmosphere. Drinks are a bit pricier than usual - being $10 or more for a drink, but even with the cost it's actually my pick of boba places among of the handful located along Guad. If the cost were $1-2 less per drink I'd say it'd really hit the sweet spot for being a fully positive experience, but in the end I do value quality and would definitely recommend Mogee for any of your boba needs.
Been here couple of times already during my visits in town and they always are consistent in my experience. I like the tapioca here, the texture and the consistency of it has been good. The teas don't come as sweet as well even if it's 75% which is a plus for me. Had the mango bubble tea for my last visit & it was good & not too sweet (didn't adjust the sweetness). Anything here uji matcha is good as well. Parking can be problematic though that's all I can say in the downside when visiting.
The drinks are ok but heaven forbid you want to alter an order somehow. If you want to add or subtract something from your drink and it's not listed on the kiosk, you will be interrupted with a no before you can finish your sentence and that's coming directly from the owner. That was my very first interaction with this place. We gave it a 2nd chance and same thing again. I wanted to add yogurt to my drink and immediately got turned down again. So I had to change my whole order to one that already had yogurt in it from the menu and I guess the girl preparing my drink didn't like that too much cause she just flopped a glob of yogurt off the side of the cup. Even the rude owner made it look more presentable the first time. Oh and if you are going because the cup lids are cute, that will also depend on the mood of the person preparing it if you get one or not. Sheesh!
I enjoyed the drinks here! There weren't too many people and got our drinks quickly. There were a few students here and there as the college is nearby so seating can be hard. My friends and I got the uji matcha, superfruit green tea, and taro with creme brulee. The drinks were pretty good and not too sweet! I got the uji matcha but I wish there was more of the creme bruleee for the taro drink. read more
The quality has really gone down. The restrooms are filthy. The sink, the toilet and the floor are all disgusting. There was no one when I ordered using the kiosk, yet they didn't bother making my drink. Both employees were doing something else. There's nothing premium about their matcha. It's premixed and already sweetened. Premium matcha doesn't come sweetened... This will be my last time here read more

Boba in Austin could be hard to come by. This place is small and located on the corner. We ordered at the little kiosk when inside and the order took quite awhile. Prices are more pricey than what we were used to but the quality was decent. Plenty of seating inside. Would maybe return to try something different like the brown sugar boba. read more
I was in Austin for the weekend and this was one of the only places that stayed open late at night so we went in for a quick drink after dinner. I am from SD and we have lots of boba places there so I was excited to see how the boba compared in Austin. I ordered the regular milk tea 75% sweet and at first it was just average. Their milk teas are not overly sweet at all (which I loveeee), but somehow the drink tasted soo much better the day after. The boba stayed chewy ALL day long even though I had it in the fridge for over 12hrs!! I wrote this review just for the boba itself. It was genuinely crazy, I've always hated how hard boba balls get after being in the fridge so I never leave a drink til the next day but this was amazing!! read more

I heard that MÖGEe boba was one of the hot spots near UT so we decided to give it a try. I got the DaHongPao Bubble Milk Tea and added boba and soft tofu pudding as toppings. I made sure it was only 30% sugar level. Upon receiving it and trying it out, I was extremely disappointed. The boba tasted like watered down bland tofu water with powder milk. I didn't really taste the tea as other comments mentioned. I understand that I ordered the soft tofu pudding as a topping, but I assumed it would at least be drained properly. It tasted like it came out straight out of a container and dumped in the drink. Parking is a nightmare and we had to pay $5 for side parking, so overall this wasn't it for us. Sadly, I feel like I don't have a reason for returning. read more
This boba spot is self ordering through the kiosk! They have a wide variety or options including teas, milks teas, slushes, yogurt and cheese foam drinks. The kiosk is easy to navigate and order --but i was surprised when they requested a MANDATORY tip. They had options for $1,$2,$3, etc. They did not have options for custom or no tip. Usually I would tip at boba shops, but I did not enjoy being forced to tip. I ordered the yogurt mango tea drink at 30% sweetness -- i generally like my drinks less sweet. It was a nice blend of mango and yogurt with chunks of mango and jellies at the bottom of the drink. The price is quite steep as it costed me 10.50 (including the tip, tax AND service fee!!). It was a good drink, but I would only order this on days where I want to treat myself. The interior is clean and nice. There was only one barista working at the time but she made the drinks quickly! Overall, its a very nice and yummy place for a boba drink. read more

Located on The Drag bordering West Campus and UT, it is a dangerous spot for a college kid living on a budget. Contactless payment is available through their touch screen kiosks. It's easy to customize how much sweetness and ice you want. Oat milk is available if you don't want dairy in your drink. I'm unsure if they normally charge extra for oat milk because I had to ask for it in the notes. I ordered the purple yam milk tea with boba. The guy making my drink said the milk tea already had milk in it, and if it was ok that I got only oat milk and ube, no tea. I didn't regret this choice! The ube was a mild but familiar taste. The boba was a perfect sweetness, chewiness, and it was warm! I didn't know that I would love the combo of warm and cold layered in my drink! read more
It's my first time trying this place and this place did not disappoint. I got the Purple Yam Bubble Milk and my boyfriend got the watermelon slush and we both liked our drinks! For my drink, it's not sweet and the purple yam tastes really good. But it felt grainy but that's not really a problem for me. The watermelon slush is really good, not that sweet, and refreshing. I would like to try other items on the menu next time I'm in town. read more

I am a fan of brown sugar milk tea so I wanted to see how there compares. I like the ordering system. You order via iPads on stands which was quick and convenient. It took about five minutes to get my tea. The tea was very good. Tender boba and lots of brown sugar. read more

I ordered matcha w crème brûlée and added in tofu pudding topping ! Omg it tasted like đậu hủ đường (sweet tofu dessert --Vietnamese street food) .. combined w matcha ~~ can you imagine this heavenly combination yet??!!! Sooo good. My friends and I both lit up on the first sip lol. My friend ordered taro and crème brûlée and it was equally good. read more
I was really looking forward to the opening of a new Boba shop downtown but I don't know if this place quite hits the spot. The first time I went, I got their Signature Milk Tea with boba (have to try the classic first) then I tried out their Match Milk Tea topped with whip cream. Both were okay and left me wanting for more. For the Signature MT, I did like how rich the tea flavor was in the drink but the boba wasn't super memorable. I did not like the Matcha at all. I understand that the ingredients are all natural so the texture and flavor profile may be different from other shops. However, my drink did not taste like it was properly blended and it left a very dry and rough aftertaste with every sip. I did hear that their main speciality drinks are their fruit teas. I will probably come back to try it out to get a more holistic experience. But with the price tag of $6-7, I just don't think this is worth especially when some of the drinks are a hit or a miss. The ambiance of the place is really cute and I like how you can just place your own order. This may be a super cute hang out spot with friends but not my go to boba shop. read more

I'm surprised another boba shop has opened up near campus within a 2min walk of KFT and Gong Cha. Moge definitely has a lot of unique flavors and I do eventually want to try out some of their other menu items. However, it is quite pricey: a medium milk tea is $5.50 and standard toppings are $0.75, making the total price after tax almost $7. I ordered the creme brûlée milk tea and I really enjoyed it. I probably should have mixed the creme with the milk tea more since at the end, I was just drinking straight up creme. If you're looking for quality, I would come here but just beware that it's significantly more expensive than other boba shops near campus! read more
I'm so glad this placed opened - all the other boba places in wampus are either mediocre or just outright bad. Moge tee may be a bit more pricy, but the extra dollar or two is justified by their high quality. Drinks are not overly iced and never taste powder-y. The brown sugar boba is creamy and you can taste the hint of the brown sugar. The boba is warm and chewy, and is not bland like some other places. I also really like the super fruit tea, which is perfect if you're looking for a refreshing tea with fresh fruits (watermelon, passion fruit, etc.) My favorite though would probably have to be the taro milk tea which is made with fresh taro. Highly recommend! Personally, I find that 30% sweetness is more than enough and sometimes request they include less. Typically the drinks are ordered through kiosks but you can skip the wait by downloading the app which will also give you $5 off! read more

BEST TEA PLACE IN AUSTIN! After moving to Austin from Los Angeles, I have not found a good quality, authentic boba/tea place compared to the ones I grew up with until I found Moge Tee. Don't sleep on this place and try it out! PARKING There's street parking near the store which is usually full. There's some 15 minute parking spots on 20th street across from the store if you're planning on getting a quick drink to go. DRINKS You can order through the Snackpass app (which gives you small discounts) or through touchscreen kiosks at the store. I ordered the Super Fruit Tea which was light and refreshing. I got 50% sweetness just to test how sweet their drinks were - and it's not too sweet compared to other drinks I've gotten in Austin. If you're not a fan of overly sweet drinks like me I would recommend getting 30% sweetness instead. The drinks are on the pricier side ($6-$7) but is very worth it quality wise. My fruit tea came with actually slices of fruit and does not taste as artificially sweet compared to Kung Fu Tea across the street. read more
I happened to walk by this place after lunch. I was attracted by their cool menu outside. As a milk tea aficionado and because I don't venture out here often, I knew I had to try. I was going to go straight to the counter but noticed the big "order" signs where I can look at an electronic menu, make more order, and pay. I wanted to try everything. All the drinks looked so pretty. But the crème brûlée milk tea looked irresistible. That's what I got, and it was delicious! It really felt like crème brûlée in a cup but creamier. I should've gotten a spoon to scrape off the cream that got stuck on the sides of the cup. Haha. I also love how clean and cute the place looks. I wish it was located where there is less traffic. Otherwise, I'd come here all the time to try all their drinks! read more
If you're looking for quality tea, this is the place to get them. But with great quality, comes great risk... To your wallet. It is definitely on the pricier side $$. However, the plus side is that they do use actual fruits and taro (which is great)! I've tried their taro drink which I would definitely recommend if you prefer the real taste of taro instead of that artificial flavor. The taro chunks made it taste really natural and authentic. I have also tried their mango fruit tea with cheese foam. The cheese foam was good but I thought the mango didn't taste as sweet (maybe not a sweet mango) so the cheese foam did overpower the drink a bit more. I'll definitely have to be back to try out their other drinks on the menu (recommend downloading Snackpass app to earn rewards and some discounts!) read more

The bubble waffle tasted horrendous, I don't usually waste food and eat it even it is not good, but this waffle is so bad I had to spit out what's in my mouth and literally threw the whole thing away. Boba drink so so. Will not come back. You can take my $6 but you cannot make me swallow this piece of shh....horribly taste bubble waffle! read more
