16 oz. Milk Tea with Boba
Julie M.

This was my first visit to Quickly, even though I have passed by here so many times! I went in the evening (maybe 30 minutes before closing), and no one else was in there. This is a tiny shop, and I was actually hoping to get a minced pork rice bowl. But I found out that they mostly serve drinks, with a few snack menu items. They don't serve rice bowls, so I ordered the Popcorn Chicken and Rice ($7.99). I took it to go (there is no indoor dining). It was okay, and I was so hungry, I ate the whole thing. Because I went so close to closing, it was not freshly cooked, but I did enjoy it. I also ordered a 16 oz. Milk Tea with Boba. I completely forgot to request 50 percent sweetness. It was way too sweet for me. Even though it was my fault for not adjusting the sweetness, I did knock off points for this. But I'm thinking that even if it was not as sweet, it would not rate as high as other milk teas that I have enjoyed. The Milk Tea was $4.00 plus 50 cents for the boba, but I noticed that they offer 2 drinks for $6.00, which is a good deal. Service was friendly, interior ambience was nice, and there is a parking lot behind the shop.

Some good old popcorn chicken. They don't add the basil leaf anymore :(

Reminds me of the middle days where we went to quickly's and get some boba tea and popcorn chicken. It was my first time visiting this location and service was extremely slow. We were the 2nd group of people waiting for our drinks and I was about to order the popcorn chicken but they confirmed that they don't use basil leaves so I opted not to get it. We walked around the block for about 20 mins before we got our drinks. Cheap prices, meh service and there is free parking.

Went here today to cool off just cause the weather outside is frightful lol. I ordered the Taro Slush w/ Boba and it was delicious. I used to come here almost all the time with my friends when I was doing my studies here in East Los Angels College. But now, I rarely come here. I just missed the taste of the taro slush here because it's different from any other boba tea places. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone by Monterey Park or ELAC to swing by and give this place a try. But of course, don't forget to try their delicious and Hot Popcorn Chicken... always the best here. The service here is great, quick and efficient. The staff here are always sweet and welcoming to their customers and very happy. Thanks to Quickly in MPK!

Taro blended smoothie
Anny A.

Came here after classes during a hot day, and it's safe to say that I'll be returning to this spot every once in a while! It is located in between a really lowkey spot behind the campus. The worker at the front was very helpful with what variations of drink they have. I ended up going for a blended taro smoothie with boba, very delicious. The boba's texture was fresh and the drink was REALLY refreshing to have outside. The taro tasted very nutty and sweet like milk. Definitely ordering it again.

If you're looking for something nostalgic, come to Quickly. They're cheap and not bad. There's a parking structure in rear but if you're able to find parking right behind even better for a shorter walk. They charge 50 cents for card transactions. Popcorn chicken- wasn't bad but it felt like it was missing some texture. Crunch was there but no chew or crisp. We asked for mild spicy and it was flavorful enough. There were more larger pieces (about the size of a McDonalds nugget) than smaller pieces. Milk tea- as nostalgic as it gets! Something about Quickly's milk tea that you can't get anywhere else. I forgot to adjust sweetness and it was just fine. I usually prefer half sweet as most boba shops drinks are extremely sweet nowadays. Can't tell you anything about their boba as I opted for no toppings.

This Quickly is a hidden gem! I haven't been to a Quickly that's worth noting in the last 10+ years. But I stumbled on this one because I was craving popcorn chicken, and wow I was surprisingly blown away. Their popcorn chicken is better than most other more expensive places in San Gabriel valley. It's big, juicy, crispy, and always fried on the spot. Their drinks are pretty good for the price. 2 for $6 for 16oz cups for most drinks on their menu. Give it a try if you're in the area!

Green Tea with Egg Pudding
Brian H.

I've been coming to this Quickly since I was a kid and it's still the same owner. Located next to ELAC, across the McDonald's it's very convenient for college students. I only get the Green Tea with Egg Pudding and it tastes great! This place is undergoing construction inside the establishment so there are no inside tables. Besides, this Quickly is pretty small so there is not much wiggle room. Prices are about $5 - $7 in lieu of your cup sizes. Overall: Quick place to get your boba fix. Basic, nothing too fancy.

Popcorn chicken (mild)

Drink is kinda watered down, probably give 2 stars; Popcorn chicken is 4 stars, flavor is good besides its little dry. Front lady is really nice, 5 stars.

Hot popcorn chicken with delicious cream sauce, with thai tea. Delicious spicy
Joel J.

Love this off college campus, quick stop eats. Friendly service, small, quaint and fun music vibes. Enjoy the cream chick sauce! Yum

A pit stop for my favorite boba at the Quicklys in Monterey Park. I had to get my honeydew and taro boba #SummerVibes #June2024
Shivani P.

Out of all the quicklys I have tried I love this location because the honeydew milk tea boba I ordered is perfect , the other locations I have been to it taste very different. And the management team is very nice, and also it's very clean it might be small it's a nice place to take a break after school. They also have great deals, I know every quicklys is different, although I would recommend this location trust me you will love it .

Thai tea and taro tea ready for pick up
Oscar D.

Second time coming here and will be back. Cute location with plenty of parking in the plaza. Great choices on the menu of drinks. I go with Taro and Thai tea personally and they always come out great and fast. Thanks!

Watermelon slush

This is still my favorite boba place or at least around Monterey park. Plus they make they're fruit slushy out of real fruits

Workers are always friendly and give great recommendations. I have been here numerous times, and my favorite items have been their lychee tonic (though on the pricier end for $9) and the Fist Bump (small black sesame breve), but I also love their hot flat white, as it has the balance of their strong and smooth espresso flavor with the perfect balance of milk. I have also enjoyed the Cloudy, which has subtle notes of red date and pear with a cream top. The drink was nicely balanced and not too sweet. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their coffee drinks, which have strong coffee notes. I also love their coffee cakes, which tend to sell out pretty quickly by midday. The cake is rich and moist with a nice cinnamon-sugar top and pairs nicely with coffee. They have plenty of parking in the back lot. Definitely check them out if you're in the area!

I was in the area on a weekday and decided to stop by before work to grab a coffee. I went at around 8:30 AM and it was busy with many folks doing work. After looking at the menu, I had a hard time trying to figure out what to get given the selection! I asked for a recommendation between drinks and they mentioned if I want a hot drink - Miso White would be good; for a cold drink - Lychee Tonic would be ideal. It was a hotter day, so I opted for the Lychee Tonic. Since it was busy, the wait was ~ 10 minutes for the drink. After giving it a try, it tasted refreshing but I didn't really get the lychee taste. Not the best first impression with the tonic. However, I'd still consider coming back considering their ambience. Also absolutely interested to try their pour over options! Parking is available in the back of the building. American Express is accepted here.

Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab - SMOKIN' SPANIARD

Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab has been long overdue for a rating from me. I've been here multiple times…read moreand have even racked up quite a few points through their membership program. It's a wonderful spot to study as long as you get there early. The atmosphere is always warm and inviting, and the drinks are consistently made fresh and served piping hot. There's also a solid variety of food options to choose from. I've had the chance to try a few items: the Dubai chocolate mochi (4/5), the breakfast burrito (4/5), and the breakfast sliders (5/5). The sliders are especially good--kind of like a stacked sandwich with egg, sauces, and jam that all come together really well. My go-to drink is the Bori Cano, which is my current seasonal favorite. It's a unique mix w cream top over an Americano, with barley tea on the bottom. It's perfect for keeping me going during long study sessions. I'm really glad to have a place like this in Monterey Park where I can settle in and get work done. As for parking, there are only about five spots right in front of the café, but there are two larger lots on either side with no time limits, which makes things much easier.

Decently good coffee but not super special…read more Sweet Corn Latte ($6.50) 25% sugar was a good sweetness level for me. Pretty strong coffee flavor at the top before mixing it. Not too bitter. I should have mixed it, but I didn't so it was a bit watery for the second half. It's a decent coffee, but not something I would particularly yearn for again. It could have less ice - I forgot to ask about ice adjustments. They have some seasonal drinks with honey and ube. They have some bakery items too and to-go drinks. Very big and spacious interior with a few seats and tables. Looks very clean. Pretty quiet, good place to study/work. There's a restroom at the very back. The staff members are very nice and patient. I might go back to try other drinks and pastries.

The cafe de olla latte has some extra spices (e.g. orange) in it that makes the flavor more complex. The guayaba (guava) pastry was so flakey and delicious. The coffee cake is inspired by LAUSD - it was very fluffy & fresh!! Went in on a Wednesday morning & the service was very friendly. I noticed many items are labeled both in Spanish & English, which is admirable. This small business knows exactly the neighborhood they reside in, and they cater to the residents. The only thing I would change is moving this establishment closer to where I live! Kudos to Picaresca for being loud & proud about supporting human rights.
