This is inside the mall. I have been curious about it since I noticed it pop up across from Jollibee. Some pros: huge menu including those fun and yummy bubble donut thingees, which come out piping hot. Some cons: untidy dining area and lackadaisical staff. I often wonder, tho, if the staff at some places just treat people differently if, like me, they are a bit clueless about bubble tea lol. Grace for the dirty dining area would be that the staff was all by themselves and probably with steady customers to prepare orders for. Would be hard to get out front. Ordered the green tea lychee w/ boba and the "exfreeze" coconut milk w/ coffee. Both were tasty and hit the spot on a hot day. read more

This place isn't as great as I remembered it to be back then... I went here with my mom on a Sunday afternoon while shopping in Southcenter and decided to get some of their drinks to go with our tater tots we got from nearby Undercover Fries (which I'm not sure if they have a Yelp page). Ambience is very casual, with plenty of seating. Nothing to say of service since I only ordered at the kiosk closest to the entrance. I got their passion fruit & lemon green tea, and my mom got their peach green tea, both at 70% sweetness and ice levels. We both ended up tossing our drinks after having about half of it for similar reasons, the biggest one being that the drinks didn't taste at all fresh. They were also watered down to the point where we weren't sure if we got 70% sugar as I saw on the kiosk or 25% sugar. I've been here several times before and have tried their bubble waffles and other milk tea drinks, so this review on its own isn't an accurate representation of my experiences overall. But for this one visit, I wanted to get the mango desserts from Hui Lau Shan again at Southcenter... those who know what this place used to be will know what I mean. read more

I cannot really speak for too much of the service as we used their self-order kiosk but the barista was friendly and even let us have our dogs at the edge of their café. She called out to us in a polite and friendly manner once the drinks were all ready. She made our drinks exactly as we ordered and it was the perfect pick me up as we went about our day. I think this is one of the best places that actually follow your customizations as I feel other places don't even bother sometimes or just keep making it sweet. My boyfriend got their oreo milk tea which he really liked but just be wary to not sip from the bottom as the oreo crumbles are below and it was just a very dry sip. I got their ube mochi milk tea which was delightful as the mochi wasn't like little bits that could get stuck in the straw but rather like a pudding. We definitely would love to return to try out their other drinks and food items. read more

The drinks were all terrible. We got an oolong milk tea that tasted like water down milk- no tea flavor. The watermelon tea tasted like watermelon syrup, no tea. The avocado mango pomelo has like one tiny piece of mango in there--it's a total rip off. The straws aren't even the correct size. You put it in the drink and it's gone because it's not long enough. What's going on here? read more

We stopped by because of the enticing picture of the mango sago drink. My daughter is a big fan of mango drinks, so we ordered a few drink. It was just okay. There weren't much service because you're ordering from a kiosk, which can take some time if there's customers who doesn't know what they want. There are a few tables for you to sit and drink. Overall, it's just okay for me. At least now I can say that I tried it. read more

We got a tea and a coffee. I couldn't even tell you what it was because we didn't finish either of them. The only good thing about this place is the friendly customer service. Will not be returning. read more

The passion fruit and lemon green tea was yummy. The boba consistency was good. I'd have to try more of the other drinks but the service was quick after ordering at the kiosk. They only have one kiosk to order so it's requires some patience so you can order at the counter too. read more

I am a first time customer and never experienced such really bad service. I ordered online and they took a really long time for my order I had to go up and ask them what is going on and they all looked confused (like they didn't know what they were doing). My drinks that I received tasted really bad and had a hair inside it. WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY! If I were able too I would rate this place 0 stars. The customer service is really bad. They have so many young workers, working back there and still provide bad service. I would not recommend this place to anyone! I recommend checking out other tea and coffee places. read more

Ordered the Watermelon green tea with boba and Mango fruit tea with boba and it tasted light and healthy. Boba was chewy and delicious, but drinks didn't have much flavor and was watered down. Shop is conveniently located in a mall. Service is so so. Ambiance is okay. Probably won't be back again. read more

And for dessert..... We got the Ube and strawberry mochi milk tea a I actually prefer anything with ube and the strawberry was a bit too sweet even if you lessen the sugar, it's probably the syrup that's on the bottom. The ambiance is pretty cute and modernized, I like how it's right across Daisy so right after shopping we can just get our sweet tooth satisfied. There is self service right in front so in case the person in front is busy or sometimes not available. read more

We stopped by and ordered a bubble waffle from the kiosk. After waiting about 15 minutes, they let us know they ran out of batter. They refunded me but I wish they would have let me know earlier on so I didn't waste our time. As we waiting, we also noticed the workers were not very sanitary. The male worker was assembling the bubble waffles without wearing gloves. We noticed him handling the ice cream and fruit on top with his bare hands and also saw him spraying cleaner onto the countertops prior and wiping it without gloves as well and then going back to the waffle. Overall I'm glad we didn't end up getting the waffle as we were definitely a concerned with the lack of sanitary precautions in place. read more

I was a little sad to see that a new fruit tea store replaced Hui Lau Shan. HLS had some amazing mango drinks and I didn't mind having them every week! I still decided to check out this spot since I wanted some fruit tea. We got the mango jasmine green tea with crystal boba. The boba was perfectly chewy but the fruit tea itself tasted a bit medicinal. It's due to the type of mango they used. I'd still like to try their other drinks but I'm not too hopeful that this place will be my favorite. The service was just right and the place itself was decent. Nothing special, not inviting enough, just eh. read more

Stopped in here really quick for my boba fix. The taro milk tea blend with boba was delicious and perfectly sweetened. Once I ordered my drink using the self-serve kiosk, my drink came out really quick. The seating area is clean and bright. If you need your boba fix, this is definitely a nice stop to either grab and go and take a seat and enjoy your drink with friends. read more

The egg waffle here is YUMMY and comes of fresh, which I love, but the ube ice cream didn't taste enough like ube. It tasted more like an elevated vanilla. I personally wouldn't order this one again considering that. Also, the service was incredibly slow. It was a busy Saturday afternoon, so I'll give them that, but it took about 20-25 mins after ordering to finally get the food. read more

I wanted something to drink while walking around the mall, and this place is right across from Jollibee (it replaced the old HLS). The inside is clean, pretty empty on Tuesday night. It took about 10 minutes to receive my drink after ordering. I got a Cheezo Osmanthus oolong tea and a red bean coconut pudding. The drink was alright, and the pudding is surprisingly yummy. read more

Went back again this time & was disappointed in it not having any taste... such a cute store with good concepts. It is not our cup of tea, and maybe it's because we've had so much boba that this one just doesn't hit the spot. It was $7+ for my medium drink with Crystal boba... it was $15 for both of our drinks, which is okay but if the quality isn't there, it's actually kind of pricey. Cute store though! read more

Upon seeing Peekaboo's whimsical desert display, I knew I had to try it out! The food: I ordered the fruity bubble waffle ice cream - whatever it was called. It consisted of soft serve vanilla ice cream, strawberry syrup drizzled on top, and a bubble cone that tasted like a cream puff, once combined with the ice cream. Sweet, sliced strawberries and fresh blueberries adorned it as well. It was delicious! However, I ordered it with Nutella, but I got marshmallow cream with it and no Nutella. I didn't pursue the matter. All the food on the menu looked scrumptious. The majority of it was tea and coffee and deserts. The service: It took 10-15 minutes waiting for my food to be ready. The employees seemed to be nice. You have to order from a kiosk screen. Final notes: The restaurant itself had a nice feel to it! I gave Peekaboo 4 stars because they got a little bit of my order wrong. Besides this, it was a pleasant and delicious experience. I definitely recommend! read more

We came in for a drink at Southcenter and tried something we have never had-rice and beans in our tea! This surprisingly worked for us. Peekaboo is conveniently located within Southcenter mall, and it was easy to make our order at the kiosk. One great thing about them is that you can personalize your order through the kiosk, so there is a chance to adjust your order based to your liking. There are lots of pictures of their food and beverages as well. While this trip was short and sweet, there are plenty of things I would love to try. Their Taro tea was great! We would definitely come back. read more

So glad I got the ube mochi milk tea, haven't seen any place that has that. I was expecting the Mochi to be chewy but it did have the Mochi flavor. The boba was okay, not as flavorful as I'd like and texture was okay. Tea and ube flavor was good though. read more

One of the newest boba places over at Southcenter Mall. It is right across Jollibee and beside Chowking so I usually end up going here after a full meal from my go-to Filipino restaurants in the area. They have a self-service screen which I adore. I like taking my time when choosing a drink so when it's not busy, i spend a few minutes adding the toppings I would like and the sweetness level I would want for my boba. It could get busy during weekends so I always order to-go. I liked everything I ordered (ube and matcha) except for the dalgona. In Asia, dalgona is supposed to be a tad sweet. The one they have has a strong espresso flavor and very little cream. read more

Was here 1/28/25 at around 3:30pm. I was the only one in when I ordered, yet it took longer to get 2 hot taro milk teas than it did to get our food at Jollibee. There were two girls working, and one was talking non-stop, barely paying attention to what she was doing. When I finally got our order after 10-15 minutes (remember, there were no other orders ahead of mine), the "hot" taro drink was only luke warm. The location of this shop right near 4 different places to eat is a wasted opportunity if the service is so bad. I could have walked to my car, driven across to Share Tea, and been back in the same amount of time. We will not be back. read more

Not a fan. The establishment is in the mall and it's dirty. They could use someone to clean the tables more often. I did like how they have a smaller and regular size option. The fresh strawberry milk tea was ok. They popping boba or something in the tea was still warm. The pineapple and watermelon green tea with boba were alright. The boba got hard fast. But I like how there were lots of bite size pieces of fruit in the watermelon and pineapple teas. read more

Stopped in this cute boba shop, located in the mall across from daiso and the library. A comfortable place to relax for a bit before carrying on. Service is very forthcoming, they have two automated self order terminals a stand alone and one by the cash register. We ordered from them and asked for a sweetness adjustment over what was available in the terminal menus and were accommodated accordingly. We ordered the oolong milk tea(70% sweet), matcha coffee late, and got the pleasure to try a surprise secret menu option, the strawberry crystal crema. I tried a sip from all. all sweet, coffee def was strong too. overall, great place to pop in for a quick drink. nice atmosphere, clean, and friendly. and the nice bathrooms are right by it too! ;) read more

I needed something to drink, went to this place because there was no line. It wasn't the greatest milk tea at all. I wanted to try the strawberry mochi milk with boba because it's something unique to try. I feel like the tea itself was pricy for something that is small, maybe it was pricey because it was unique. I didn't finish it because I feel like the strawberry flavoring was just artificial tasting. read more

This was in the summer of 2024, there was a sign out front that said "Buy one get one 50% off" I ordered three drinks for my friends and I. When I went to pay I noticed everything was full price. I asked about the deal on the sign, and the guy behind the counter turned to his coworker, said something, turned back to me and said "No we aren't doing that" I told them if they aren't then they should take down the sign. There were other customers in the store, and I wonder if they got the deal or if they didn't notice? It felt very targeted from the guy working there. The drinks were also not very good, very watered down and not much flavor. Will not be going back. read more

First time here Got watermelon green tea with aloe and mango coconut dessert Both really bad The drink had a lot of aloe and big chunks of watermelon which made it hard to drink There was barely any liquids The coconut jelly was so powdery Like something wasn't completely dissolved and I could taste the powder Overall a bad experience and won't go back My boyfriend said thanks to the barista on the way out and she just ignored us and she really seemed like she hated her job read more

My friend and I tried the bubble waffle, which was good! I got the kung fu black tea, and it was enjoyable (but it's not really a drink that I'd expect anyone to mess up anyway). My friend got the banana fresh milk, which was sweet too sweet for me (but that's why I ordered iced tea and that's just a personal preference). Service was decent and the interior is cute, especially considering it's a mall boba spot. I'd go back to try the other bubble waffle items! read more

So I have a few great things to say about this place: 1) the boba was great, I got the taro milk tea and I liked the taro paste and the sweetness of the tapioca boba. 2) the boba tea came in really nice quality cups that I actually want to reuse at home. 3) I ended up accidentally leaving my purse in the shop and left for a long time. I realized I left it there and I went running back. The lady working there was so kind and held onto it for me. I was so relieved it wasn't stolen. 4) it's also a very cute looking shop right inside the mall next to Jollibee. read more

really cute little place in the mall. Have self order screens which is nice I'll have to do is pick what you want and then you get your number and then you wait. Now the food is really good.

Place was nice to have a sit in and kind of get away from the chaos of a mall. The prices are a bit high for what you get. The Oreo lover pictured is about $13. The waffle by itself is about $6. It's good but may not be worth the price. No real service as it's order on your own from a kiosk. The mango shave ice is also about $13. Good but again may not be worth the price. I have to say both are very big servings and easily feed 2 people per item. read more

I was excited to try their boba drink. I ordered the Mango Jasmine Green Tea With 3 Toppings. It took a long time to get after I placed the order. Couldn't wait to dive into it. After taking a big slip I noticed it was very bitter. The mango tasted very old. Informed them that it tasted bitter and off. They said there's no issue with it and didn't change it. Truly disappointed. Would not recommend this place as the mall has several other boba shops. read more
