    This site has sentimental value to me, since it was where Next Collection used to be located. Imagine how difficult it was to purchase car parts (and all the decals!) back when the mod scene was in its infancy stage. Next Collection was the spot that handled all our needs. Those of you old enough to remember Tuning Concept magazine can sympathize with me. I was sad to see the place go due to widespread competition, but was glad to see a tapioca shop filling up the vacancy. Unfortunately, that place, called My Love Cafe (Justin Timberlake had nothing to do with it), was simply horrible. Each time I rolled by, I counted a collective total of zero patrons. To top it all off, there was a sign out front that read, "Today [sic] special. Tuna fish sandwich $2." I don't know, man. With all the cuisine choices in Chinatown, tuna isn't exactly high up there on my wishlist. That sign was up every single day until the shop finally gave up the ghost. Luckily, a tenant worthy of the Next Collection location - the world famous franchise, Quickly - is now in that very spot. Not much needs to be said about the big Q that hasn't been already. Hurray Quickly. RIP Next Collection.

    Quickly is probably the first boba place I went to when I got introduced to bubble tea. Seeing that this particular boba brand has been dying down, I'm really glad this particular one in Chinatown is still around. This is my go to place ever for jasmine milk tea. That is the drink I order 99% of the time. They just make it right for my tastes buds. I've had jasmine milk tea elsewhere like I-tea, T4, TapEx, etc. but, quickly is the one I always come back to. Some places make it too creamy for my liking whereas quickly has found the right balance of tea flavoring and creamer. Absolute perfection. A large jasmine milk tea with boba usually rings up to $3 only! Sometimes $2.75 even! I don't really know how their pricing works since each time I find that it's a different price (plus or minus $0.25) I don't get food here often since it is more like snack foods and usually I'm out looking for more dense meals for lunch. However, when I do, I really enjoy their popcorn chicken rice bowls. That use to be one of my favorites back in the days. Also, their fried fish balls are delicious. Love being able to adjust the salt pepper seasoning by myself so I can make it just right. In my experience, service is pretty fast. My one drink order is really simple so that may be why. Literally in and out in less than 5 mins which is amazing when I'm in a rush.

    So I ordered the popcorn chicken from this Quickly, and it wasn't fully cooked. The insides were pinker than any safe chicken should be.

    I COULD HAVE BEEN SICK. I ordered popcorn chicken and the inside of the chicken was PINK. Like it was genuinely really pink and really chewy like only the outside was fried. My friend already ate a couple pieces and I will update you guys she is already feeling a bit sick.

    It's a Quicky's in Chinatown surrounded by many others Boba spots. Not the best or worst of quicklys. A small shop that has one table so more so a quick takeout spot. Sometimes I crave a quickly quality drink popcorn chicken and Thai tea snow but otherwise it's like any other quickly and it fulfills that duty. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here much better options around Chinatown but if times is of the essence swing by here. Also you can order from Doordash for quick pickups.

    froyo guide

    I had this brilliant idea to put boba in my froyo, so off I went to Quickly with Jeff C (http://www.yelp.com/biz/quickly-oakland#hrid:LZnNkQFxNKOTIgltpHj58Q). Each of us got a small (5 oz) at the promotional price of 59 cents, with 3 toppings ($1.50), totaling slightly over $2. I chose boba, mango stars, and lychee. Cheapest Froyo yet! Service was friendly, but the store was small with nowhere to sit. We also could not see the toppings available; however, there was a nifty poster with pictures of THIRTY available toppings (not including boba) such as chestnuts, the standard fruits, aloe, yogurt chips, litchi, marshmallows, mochi, and various jellies and chewy things. Check out my picture of the froyo guide!! So the nice lady gave me my froyo, but I saw that it was quite funny looking. Very melted and smothered with toppings. The cup was not very full compared to at other places, but this may be because a third of it had melted already. It was over 80 degrees outside, but still. I ended up pretty much drinking my froyo...not too bad with the boba actually! Now I know why boba isn't on the list of toppings. Jeff's froyo didn't melt so quickly, so we decided that the boba was probably hot, melting the froyo. That was fun.

    Head down 10th street, make a left on Webster and a right on 7th street and head down to the Quicklys there because there's better: +customer service and attention +free wifi +better parking You get the point. This Quicklys always has cashiers that aren't very friendly, always seems to be growling when I pass by, and never have taro! My dear lord. It's right next to my weekend jon, so I'm always headed here for a quick drink and snack. They take long and it's a small spot. I'd avoid coming to this one if you can, but for convenience sake, I do.

    It is a very small spot, so it's a good place to grab drinks when you are on a run. The milk tea was yummy. This time, the pearls didn't have much taste. The staff was friendly and offered fast service. I like watching the music videos and dramas they have on TV while waiting for my drinks.

    Mini octopus...don't buy!

    There is no customer service. I ordered 3 drinks, popcorn and mini octopus. There were only 5 pieces of octopus and crumps. It Costed more than $6. What?!?!?

    I walk by this spot quite often, so I needed to give it a try. I am glad I stopped in! The staff is…read moreso friendly and helpful recommending exactly what I need. They have a lot of options, so it was nice to have their recommendations to help. The smoothies and acai bowls can take a little long to be made, they are a small shop and have a lot of customers at once, so be prepared to wait if you come! The smoothies are super thick and rich in flavor, and they give you a lot of everything! Keep that in mind when you're ordering, because some flavors (peanut butter) can be more powerful and dominating than others! But it's still so delicious and I can't wait to drop back in to try something new!

    I had a really disappointing experience here today mainly due to the attitude of one employee…read more When I first came in the woman who helped me was very friendly and welcoming. She greeted me right away and even recommended a smoothie which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the smoothie itself wasn't blended well and had large chunks of fruit and ice, making it difficult to drink through the straw. Since the shop wasn't busy and the smoothie was over $12 I politely asked if it could be blended a little more. The man working there (white pants, black shirt, black bandana, glasses) rolled his eyes, stared at me and said in a rude tone, "I can't blend your smoothie I'd have to make a whole new one." His attitude made me feel uncomfortable for even asking so I said "ok just forget about it." He responded with "ok good" and walked away. I completely understand if there's a policy about not re-blending drinks after they've been served. That's not the issue. The issue was the unnecessary attitude toward a customer who was being polite. I ended up leaving the smoothie there and wasting my money. Hopefully management sees this and addresses how customers are treated.

    Recommended by a running friend to try this place. I was a bit shock that this is a grocery store…read morethat sells smoothies, chinese herbal drinks, snack, and others inside the store. This is good as it means they use fresh fruits for their smoothie. I got the cantaloupe and strawberry smoothie. It was so good. Their menu explains the benefit of each drink and has lots of choices. This is my 1st time seeing a store in the U.S. that sell order chinese herbal drink. Definitely will be back when I'm feeling a little "hot air".

    I drove by this place a few times but parking is bad because it's in Chinatown (only street…read moreparking). I finally tried this out since we were eating at a place nearby and got lucky and parked right across from this shop. They not only have juices and teas. They sell other items, fresh veggies, fresh fruits and California Lottery Tickets. ----LOCATION---- - Located in Chinatown - Street Parking, plan accordingly or drive with someone and have a friend hop out of the car for order pick up ---HOW TO ORDER/PAY---- - Order/Pay in Person or on a variety of food apps like Uber Eats but also you can order through YELP. - I recommend ordering on YELP or another food app so that pick up is quick and efficient. ____DRINKS____ ----CANTALOUPE & STRAWBERRY JUICE---- - I created this using their "3 Choice" Juice option - Super refreshing! Especially on a hot day - Keep in mind that they are no added sugars, it's straight up fruit and not so sweet - Super healthy! ---- VITMAIN C TEAM---- - This is one of their pre-made juices that is ready for purchase. - They make it themselves - Great for if you're feeling sick, around sick people or for before/after a trip and you need that extra vitamin c boost! - A heads up, the ginger taste is strong in this ----DRAGON FRUIT SMOOTHIE---- - This is was refreshing and tasty. I liked how it wasn't too sweet. My boyfriend originally ordered this but didn't like it so much because it tasted like "Earth" but that's the whole point for it to be no additives and straight fruits and no artificial flavoring... more for me because I drank his smoothie LOL ---SERVICE---- -Service is amazing. They are very kind and grateful. If you have any questions regarding their drinks, they will explain them to you. ---RESTROOMS/INTERIOR--- - No restrooms - It's a small corner shop - This is a more of a grab and go type of establishment ----REASONS FOR MY 5 STARS---- - Variety of fruits and veggies for drinks - Great customer service, they were/are very patient and kind to everyone that they interact with while I was waiting for my drinks
