I haven't come to Quickly in a long time because the quality of their drinks and food items have gone downhill. However, I was really craving chicken nuggets and decided to stop by. I got a pretty good amount of chicken for $4 -- the chicken wasn't over fried or re-fried (I usually throw away half because it's literally all fried batter), but it was fresh and well made! Service was also quick and they were very nice. My 4 star rating is solely for their chicken nuggets as I've stopped purchasing their drinks and go to my two other favorite places for that. P.S. they have also started accepting card, but it has to be $8 minimum. read more

What can I say ... my favorite Boba tea and yummy chicken nuggets that they can make extra spicy!!! ... i've been here more often than I've ever checked in. Wi-Fi available and friendly service. This just in!!! They at now except credit cards for purchases over eight dollars!!! Wish I knew that before I stopped at the ATM where I got a three dollar charge from Wells Fargo and probably another three dollar charge from my bank. Such is life !!! read more

God tier chicken nuggets. Yo you like paying $5 for that chicken scratch amount of nuggets they give you at SweetHut? NO DAFUQ quicklys is the best HANDS DOWN for the price of nuggets to the amount you get @ ME IF IM WRONG (so I know where to get chicken nuggets next I still love you quicklys) didn't take no pictures cuz I finish the nuggets before I remember to. Spicy is kinda spicy so watch out cuz I eat spicy and that shit made me need water. read more

It was a great experience and the milk tea I got was very good. The boba were nice and Qq and the tapioca tea flavor was very creamy. HOWEVER, my girlfriend got the PEPPERMINT MILK TEA and I don't know how to sugarcoat this but it tastes like a near death experience. It tastes like someone mixed toothpaste and water and served it. It has the same flavor as dental floss. Please choose anything but peppermint. Edit: if you get equate denture cleaner (the green ones) for your retainer, the peppermint milk tea tastes like the water when u put the mint cleaner in read more

Even though my Taiwanese boo-thang doesn't love boba as much as other Taiwanese folks, she still craves a fix here or there. And being in a new city, we've been searching on Yelp for a place to satisfy her cravings. We found a Quickly -- a popular chain in killa Cali -- and made our way over. I. BOBA TEA & FOOD There are generally three different kinds of bubble tea joints. They either serve all powdered drinks, all fruit, or a mix of both. Quickly is the former, mainly because the only real fruit they have is watermelon. It's a lot faster for businesses to only serve powder, but for obvious reasons it's not as tasty as real fruit. Anyways, below are the types of drinks that one can purchase: -Traditional Milk tea -Slush (Syrup and Ice) -Smoothie (Syrup, Ice, and Milk) Of course, like any boba place, patrons can either have tapioca or jellies . I tried the chocolate milk tea with pearls and watermelon slush with aloe vera (a plant, but jelly-like). *Chocolate Milk Tea: Pretty good! The drink wasn't overwhelmingly milky, and I got that chocolate fix. Bobas were perfectly soft and slightly chewy. Yum. *Watermelon Slush: Not bad! I liked the aloe vera chunks at the bottom. Not cloyingly sweet, which I like. There are also several types of Taiwanese street food people can order such as Taiwanese chicken nuggets, tempura, fish cakes, tofu, etc... II. SERVICE We only waited five minutes, for our drinks. It took a little longer than usual, because I asked for a watermelon slush, and as I mentioned above, it's fresh. Not complaining. :) III. ATMOSPHERE/ DÉCOR Taiwanese music blasting, plenty of AC powering through, and enough seating for three or four groups. There are a couple stools at the counter, and one can watch the staff make boba, slushes, and smoothies. Did I mention the AC? #chubbyguysneedAC IV. PRICES Not bad, from what I can remember. Maybe only a little over $7 for two drinks? IV. OVERALL Although super nice, fast, and affordable, watermelon isn't my favorite flavor and I prefer boba establishments that serve real fruit. I wouldn't mind getting something from there again in the future, but in the meantime I'll be taking my boba-sippin' talents elsewhere. read more

Boba/Bubble Tea Aficionados - Atlanta's bubble tea scene has just changed for the better! If you've ever been to Cali, you'll notice the wide variety of bubble tea shops from Lollicup, Tapioca Express, Quickly and many more. My prediction is that bubble tea shops is the next yogurt shop craze. Anyway, driving by we made a U-turn in the street when I saw the sign calling my name. I ran in to find a one man show trying to handle the demand of a line 5 customers deep. So I patiently waited and waited and waited and did I mention waited? This guy was taking orders, cooking up a new batch of tapioca pearls, taking another customer's money, and cooking chicken nuggets all at once. More people streamed in after me and if this place blows up as I think it will, the gentleman's gonna need a lot more help. The store has a variety of milk teas, flavored teas, slushes, smoothies, bubble snows, etc. All were $2.50 for regular and +$1 for large - cash only. We ordered a purple corn slush and a mango bubble snow. Purple corn was not sweet enough and had an odd texture - but that's what we get for trying something extremely different. Mango snow had the taste I was expecting out of this drink but not the thickness - it needs to be more mixed and a little more frozen. When we left, we also got a traditional milk tea one which was very, very good. They currently use small tapioca pearls which were cooked properly - not mushy and not undercooked. By the way, the chicken nuggets (which aren't on the menu) are AMAZING! Definitely liked them a lot more than other places - these are nice and moist. Lightly battered with great spices for just the right amount of kick. Great snack with the bubble tea. In reality this place is worth 3 stars right now, but it has the potential to be 4 stars (he's only been open for 2 weeks). Couple of improvements that will push it there: 1) Cook more tapioca pearls in advance - this is a bubble tea place. And also use the large tapioca pearls - the small ones just don't do it. 2) Get some help - you're about to blow up. 3) Get more than 1 bubble tea making machine. One blender is not gonna be enough. 4) Work on the flavor ratio - the tea was spot on but anything that was blended needs a little work right now. Though this isn't an improvement, I'd also recommend a frequent customer card cause if you get better, I'm gonna be there. A lot. read more

at first, I didn't really like this location. I actually favored the old norcross rd location more. as time progressed, those teen girls all migrated over to the old norcross location and now, the boba drinks are made by the owner's wife at this location (buford hwy). I love it when the owner's wife is there since she's got the most warm & welcoming demeanor. she's all smiles and super patient. she definitely has a better social skills than her husband. there's not really much say about quickly's since all of atlanta knows about this chain, but here's some quick notes I want to point out..for perhaps, those who never been or heard of quickly: - this location carries the size options of: small (2.50), large (3.50), and extra large (4.50) - snacks are taiwanese and chinese type snacks. examples of snacks are.. nuggets, octopus balls, fish cakes, fried tofu, etc. snack prices range from $2.50 - $5 - you can spice up any snack you purchase - CASH ONLY for this location; no minimum purchase for credit card use - examples of drinks are.. black milk tea, lychee green tea, thai tea, passion fruit slush, etc. - there's plenty of parking spaces in this quicky's lot I could go on and on with other misc. things, but let's keep this list short, shall we? :] read more

I'm not sure if it is safe to eat or drink here. We found a metal shaving that appears to have fallen from some sort of kitchen scrubber in our bubble tea. Now I wonder what other foreign objects, germs, or chemicals could've been in our tea and the ones I brought for my kids. read more

Quickly - Found metal shaving inside a bubble tea - looks like it may be a piece from some kitchen scrubber. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Doraville, Georgia

I came here because my friend knows only one place in Atlanta that makes bubble tea. I guess he never seen daylight in his life... It's really crowded, full of Asians....I don't blame them. I'm Asian myself, so I follow bubble tea within a 2 mile radar. This place was small, decent size, and convenient. As i sat anxiously, waiting for my taro bubble tea. It only took 3 minutes! Bang! it was there, no wonder they call this place quickly. The bubble tea tasted a little off like tobacco. However, my friend said his tasted really good. I think he order the layers with lots of jelly and squid balls. Overall im satisfied with this place. I think ill come again and order the layers. read more

I remain a big fan of tapioca. The teas we got here were good. I had the original tapioca tea, which was very good. I also tried the honey tea, which somehow didn't measure up to other honey tea I've had down the street. This place was fast and easy. Just the way I like my tea. Folks here were friendly, and as we visited just after lunch, we practically had the run of the entire place for a while. Be aware: this is a cash only establishment. But don't let that stop you from going. They also have free wifi, which is always nice. read more

After being dragged here over a dozen times by friends and family, I am happy to find that Quickly consistently makes the best taro milk tea that I can find in Atlanta. The tea itself is finally sweet enough for me, and the tapioca balls are also chewy and sweet. The peppermint milk tea is also great and minty. The honeydew milk tea is super sweet with a very intense honeydew flavor. read more

This quickly is the best!! Great, quick tea with fresh boba ALWAYS. The food is delicious and portion sizes are great for the price you pay. This specific one is owned by a cute couple, and they are always so sweet. The workers always work with a sense of urgency, which is nice. Service is speedy and sweet. I love this location!! read more

This is the classy-est Quickly location I have ever seen. The small, yet newer, Buford Highway plaza houses some of my favorite eateries. Like an amazing Indonesian place and a Chinese kabob house. The comfortable seating is great for groups of friends, like small living room settings around coffee tables. The flat screen on the back wall plays some of the saddest Taiwanese love songs I have ever heard in my life. There is no better way to finish off a meal, than a classic Quickly milk tea with grass jelly, boba, and pudding floating in the bottom for dessert. If you are still snacky, Quickly's Taiwanese chicken nuggets are heavenly. When I am in town, you will find me at one of the Quickly locations at least once a day. read more

Relatively diverse drink menu. Look reasonably priced. I asked for less sugar with my peach (syrup) green tea drink with lychee. The aroma is fantastic and the lychee adequately sweet and flavorful. There are filling snacks, too. I didn't try any. Place is dimly lit. It's a more intimate place than say, Sweet Hut. There is limited comfortable seating with multiple couches sectioned off. The staff is friendly staff and speaks English (and Taiwanese?) well. Cash only! read more

I can't believe I have never reviewed this Quickly location. This was probably one of my first bubble tea experiences in Atlanta. There have been up's and down's with Quickly, but overall, I still can't complain. Quickly has the cheapest bubble tea in Atlanta that I have seen thus far. Unfortunately, it is cash only, but this location has an ATM located conveniently inside the store, and luckily for me, my bank waives all ATM fees (shameless plug for PNC Bank). The chicken nuggets are on point. We sometimes order them to bring into the movie theater (yay for the big purse trend)! However, they are pretty fragrant, so the movie theaters who care may smell them pretty strongly... In terms of bubble tea, I always order the green/black teas. The milk teas are a little too sweet for me, although I'm always on board for a Jasmine Green Milk Tea with tapioca. You're always welcome to ask for a double scoop of tapioca, free of charge! The Passion Green tea is one of my favorites. Last night, my friend and I split the XL Passion Green tea for 4.50! What a deal, it comes in a soup container sized cup - you can't even call it a cup anymore at this rate. It's the super-sized version of bubble tea. I hadn't been here in a while, but things are definitely looking up here. They have made the venue cozier and easier to look at. Free Wi-Fi appeared shortly after Sweet Hut was built to become more competitively aligned with product offerings. I do believe the service has become a little better as well (I don't miss the rude little girls who used to work the register). I will have to keep in mind that Quickly will continue to be a valid stop for bubble tea in the future. read more

One step inside Quickly and I quickly felt like I was back in Taiwan. The store's furniture and décor is plain, almost nondescript. There are Chinese pop songs playing and posters of Chinese pop stars on the walls. At the counter is a girl who seems as interested in taking my order and she is in answering her text messages. (Although probably more so the latter.) I ordered pudding milktea with bubbles, and chicken nuggets. The pudding milktea was pretty good. Not incredible, but pretty good. It's hard to find places that sell pudding milktea in Atlanta so just the fact that they offer it scores points with me. Most non-Asians I've talked to seem to think it's weird to put a slab of pudding in milktea. Psh. Pearls before swine. Speaking of pearls, they're the best I've found in Atlanta. They have just the right "bounce" to them. Most other places I've tried make them too stiff and they end up tasting undercooked. The chicken nuggets come served in a paper pouch with long toothpicks - very reminiscent of how I had them in Taiwan. They're not really "chicken nuggets" though. In Chinese they're called "Yán su ji", which roughly translates to "salty crispy chicken." Nomenclature issues aside, they are a must-try. If you've never had this dish before, chances are you've never had chicken spiced and seasoned this way. Those of you who have been to Taiwan might also get a kick of nostalgia. They have many other drinks and Taiwanese snacks to pick from. I'll definitely be back. read more

I'll admit it's been awhile since I've been to Quickly, I forsook it for the Sweet Hut. Just last week though I decided to check out my old bubble tea haunt. And it's changed quite a bit! Gone are the linoleum floors and fold out chairs, now replaced with carpet and plush couches, chic wooden tables accompany said couches for students needing study space or other patrons wanting to linger. Good move Quickly! The bubble tea and tapioca are delicious - up to par with my favorites at Sweet Hut, I especially enjoy the Caramel Mocha flavor. This last visit I also decided to try out some of their savory snacks, I chose the Chicken Wings ($3 for 4), available in spicy and mild (I chose mild). Also very tasty and super flavorful even for the mild. Though once I smelled them..I knew they were gonna be good, the aroma was mmmm...heavenly. The baristas were friendly and my order came out quickly - no pun intended; and if you're ever in a time crunch or just want to grab and go - this is the place for you - quality without the wait time of SH. read more

TARO MILK TEA very good taro. Not too sweet and not too bland. Love their cups that say what countries they are in as well. This place is as authentic as you can get. You barely understand the server asking if you want tapioca or not, ice or not, or of you want anything else. CASH ONLY. read more

Quickly - Taro milk tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Doraville, Georgia

Found amongst the plethora of bubble tea options on Buford hwy is Quickly. The establishment has a small counter with lines of armchairs on the wall to accommodate a surprising number of people. Their decor is simple with a few paintings, and the menu blown up near the front counter. Drinks: I love their lavender milk tea!! It's probably the cheapest place on Buford, and it packs the most flavor. The herbal flavor is strong and the boba is perfect consistency. My friends ordered the taro milk tea and a peppermint milk tea. The peppermint tea is very powerful, and comes across a bit odd with milk. However, the taro milk tea is possibly the best I've ever had. My boyfriend who wasn't ordering anything went and bought himself one after trying it. Price $2.75 Food: Their spicy Taiwanese chicken nuggets are the bomb! This stop over was right after eating dumplings and I couldn't leave without ordering some. They come out so hot and crispy, that it's a shame to stop eating them. The bag is a great size for the price of $3.25. The deduction of a star is due to the dirtiness of their seating. The couches are stained and almost makes you feel sticky. If they revamped the inside a little more they would be the best boba spot in Atlanta. read more

After trying so many bubble tea places in Atlanta (Sweet Hut, Lattea, Boba Mocha, Honey Bubble, etc), I have to say that Quickly is still my first choice in satisfying my boba addiction. Not only are their fruit/milk teas made to perfection, but the service here is ridiculously fast, so you can grab a drink even if you're in a hurry. Additionally, this location remodeled their interior (+ added wifi!) a little while ago to make it more group-friendly, making it the perfect spot to socialize. My favorite milk teas are taro, royal, sesame and Thai; favorite fruit teas are passionfruit and grapefruit. I've been here numerous times and I do find the bubble teas consistently delicious. Personally, I prefer grass jelly and/or tapioca in my milk teas, and lychee jelly in my fruit teas, but you can definitely customize your drink however you like. :) Some tips - bring cash and if you're having boba cravings past 9pm on weekdays and 10pm on weekends, you'll have to drive a little further down the road to Sweet Hut. read more

Love coming here for the nuggets, like everyone always talks about. I get them not spicy cause of how hot it can be. In my opinion best nuggets for the price I ever had. The spicy fries are great as well, best parried with the honey dew melon milk tea with ICE. Dont forget the ice!! Chill spot, most people don't stop in to eat. They have bathrooms in the back. The area is also great, having many options to choose from. read more

After spending years looking for a go-to bubble tea place I think my search is over. Quickly is awesome and a big chain that I wasn't familiar with before having it recommended by a friend. The bubble tea is great along with tons of other flavors and at $2.50 you can't complain. They also have an appetizer menu with spicy chicken nuggets that are a must try. Looks like they also have free wifi if you want to hang out. Cant wait to go back. read more

This location in Atlanta is the one I frequent the most every time I'm in town. Although it can be kinda crowded depending on what time you go and because of the small space, I've always found it very cozy. My favorite part though in the variety to drinks that they have. The ability to customize what toppings you what in your drink as well as control the level of sweetness makes the possibilities endless! If you find yourself dying on a hot summer day in the area, go hear. Great place to chill and cool off, literally and figuratively haha read more

The bubble tea here is decent! They come in a lot of different sizes, including the huge size for $5. There's a wide variety of teas and toppings but I will say that they have their powder displayed so you can see they just use powdered stuff. The boba is good and the service is quick. Not really anything special and not anything really to complain about. read more

Quickly - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Doraville, Georgia

I think my problem with Quickly is that they are not consistent, sometime too bland and other time way too sweet. You will definitely find something that you like here because they have a lot choices from the original bubble milk tea to peach flowers tea. Their operating system is inefficient as far as ordering goes one drink order at a time so if you want 3 different drinks it will take some time. I have never try their food but Amy recommend the chicken nuggets. Must: Chicken nuggets(according to Amy) Royal milk tea Jasmine milk tea read more

Came here for a study break/late night snack. I'm a bigger fan of their Taiwanese fried ("chicken nuggets") than their milk tea. My bf and I both did enjoy their regular milk tea (adjusted for less sweet and ice) and oolong milk tea (adjusted for less sweet, less ice). A strange thing that we noticed was that my boba stayed nice and soft the entire time but bf's became firmer. The fried chicken was a really nice surprise. It came out maybe 5-10 minutes after sitting down since they are made to order. When it's almost done, they asked if we wanted it spicy. We asked for no spice and good thing we did because even w/o the spice, it was already full of flavor (one Foursquare tip said it's Chinese five spice). It was really hot and very well cooked. Nice and tender, no dry pieces (probably thanks to using dark meat). For $3.25 it was a pretty good amount to share between 2 people. Parking can be tricky as the parking space becomes severly limited as the area is popular for after-dinner food options. We actually had to park in the parking lot right by SweetHut Bakery during that visit. read more

I just want to say, before I begin my review -- that the handicapped parking in front of the store is not a "stop and grab quickly's" parking spot. If you see people do this, please help them and let them know that they should not be parked there without a tag/licensed plate..at anytime! --Thanks! I like their bubble tea but last time I went I got the tiny boba balls! I'm not a fan of those balls - They're too small to chew and very hard to keep inside your mouth. One should not talk and drink tiny boba at the same time, or embarrassment will follow. Compared to the other bubble teas within the area, Quickly's bubble tea is less tea, more sweet and milky? It's still top 3 in the atl/metro area in my opinion...with the regular sized balls. I think this location only serves snacks but I could be wrong. I think the fried chicken nuggets are okay. Just fyi, they're tiny about 1 x 1 x 1-2 and dry seasoned with spices in case you're wondering. They're something to much on mindlessly while chatting with your friends. The volume of the place varies from no music to awkwardly loud. :) The decor is "tried it's best to look nice, but no one really minds the lack of decor". read more

Love this place! They have delicious tasting bubble teas and lots of flavors to choose from. The price is very inexpensive. My favorite flavor is the mango slushy with tapioca. My wife loves the watermelon juice made from real watermelons, not the powder form that some of the other places use. If you're in the neighborhood, I would definitely stop by, especially in the hot summer months for a cool refreshment. read more

I've been coming here for the last 5-6 years (since college). It's such a convenient location and really comforting aesthetics (before COVID). Every time I come here, I ALWAYS order the chicken nuggets (I like them spicy). For just $5, you get such a large quantity of authentic Taiwanese chicken nuggets. This beats McDonalds chicken nuggets any day. Absolutely cannot beat the value / price!!! read more

The bubble drink I had was fantastic , I have found a new place to go to through fellow Yelper's , Thank you . Ordered the Strawberry Mango smoothie said "yes" to the tapioca and to say it is good would be an understatement ! I could drink this everyday and never get tired of it . Still sipping on it as I write this only now with a little rum , um No , not kidding . Thanks to a picture of the Octopus balls , I had to have an order out of curiosity (5pc.) , these spicy little balls of goodness are something I could eat on a regular basis . Had I not just eaten dinner next door I probably would have had two . I went here two days in a row and had the same things both times , with extra orders of the Octopus , the bf even liked them . read more

Dont forget: CASH ONLY! Best bubble tea place in Georgia (not that many that ONLY sell bubble tea) I frequented this place about 2 or 3 times a week at one point. I ALWAYS got the honey milk tea. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it was never consistent. One day it would taste like water with some sugar, other days it would be WAY too sweet. Some days they make it with powdered cream, other days they make it with liquid cream. Usually the wife makes it better than the husband, in my experience. I've since moved away from Atlanta and have had better bubble teas, but I still rate this as the best in Georgia, even over Snow Mountain. read more

Their boba is okay but the salt and pepper chicken is probably the best in town. The flavor reminds me of the chicken I got from Taiwan a few years ago. It's authentic as it can get! read more

I used to get Quickly all the time when I lived in Japan, but the one here doesn't taste the same. I am not saying it's bad, but there are better places. I may come here if I felt like having a substantial snack with my boba yea, but I think I would normally like some sort of bread and tea from Sweet Hut. I got the lavender milk tea and it tasted fine. Nothing that WOWed me, but it was good. I would probably come back to try some of their snacks, in particular the Taiwanese fried chicken. Also take note that they are CASH ONLY if you spend under $8. The server was super nice though and allowed me to pay for my feeble $4 tea with card as I only had $3. Kudos to them for that. I assume they wouldn't allow that if it were crowded. I will update my review if I come again and try the food. read more

My favorite location of quicklys is the one on pleasant hill. If the store isnt busy then the staff is quite friendly. I always come here for the Taro milk tea with lychee jelly, corn nuggets, fried oysters, and taiwanese chicken nuggets! This place is a great hang out spot for friends. I only wish there was one closer to my house down south. Although, be sure to count your change when you get it back! I was short $4 of my change last time i came. read more
