    Had to get 20 drinks for a party to pick up as soon as they open. I paid for it in advance. Owner was super nice and got it done right on time. He even call me to let me know when it'll be done. (My friends commented that he doesn't seem nice, but he is super nice when I chat with him in Chinese ) Drinks were yummy as usual. Great addition to my party!

    Still the BEST popcorn chicken available! Juicy, spicy, fried to perfection not to mention those pieces of fried basil are delicious. I keep coming back just for the popcorn chicken. I don't understand why other places do not include fried basil which elevates the dish and why other places are unable to make it spicy when I asked for the maximum spice level. Only thing I wish for would be sweet and sour sauce with this delicacy. Place is a bit run down but I don't care much for aesthetics as long as what I'm going there for is above par. Parking can be tight if you arrive when the plaza is busy. Cash only.

    Came here for a papaya milk and it was alright, but the guy at the register was rude and unhelpful. Shook his head when I asked for a regular size drink and told me "medium or large." Don't expect the best quality or service here, but it's a classic boba joint in the heart of San Gabriel. Cash only btw!

    Cash only! And no bills over $20. The interior is quite old and they didn't have a lot of helpers in the front so it was one person making the drinks and taking your order. I ordered fries for $1.96 which is significantly cheaper than other boba shop (their fried tempura which is my second go to was also a lot cheaper at $2.99). The fries came out in around 5 minutes were just as good as any other boba shop and it was nice and warm! Definitely worth it for the price and will go back to try their drinks!

    Small front, been here forever.

    I didn't want to write a review because I want to keep this particular Quickly a secret! It's a small mom & pop style boba shop even though they got stores around the world. It's not the best tasting milk tea or green tea but provide excellent value! I bought 3 large drinks for $6. Sometimes I don't care too much and want some basic green tea or milk tea and they give me what I want. The place has been almost the same for a decade or two. The food is basic Taiwanese minced meat rice and its delicious and cheap! I come here all the time, especially when I don't really know what I want. Don't come here when you're craving something really yummy. It almost feel like getting food fast but with rice and boba. I'm happy with the place.

    Would give 3 and a half stars but I feel bad so I am rounding it. Decided to give this place a try since I was nearby! There's a sign that says 98 cents boba milk tea but that is NOT true. The boba milk tea is actually $1.50 for a small, and $2.05 for a large. I also got a Wintermelon Juice for 98 cents. There is also regular black iced tea for the same price. The boba is chewy and the milk tea is a bit flavorless(it may have been sitting for awhile or either they did not add enough sugar) but I mean you get what you pay for right! One of the best value Quicklys I have been to, from someone who has been to many Quicklys location, but this isn't one of the best quality ones.

    Quicklys is like the original equivalent of a Starbucks. Its on "almost" every corner of a neighborhood near you. There are tons of different private ownership of these establishments. This one on San Gabriel Blvd is in my favor for the best one around. It's a bit beat up looking, yes from being around when orbit was the hit spot for Pokemon cards in 1999 and 2000. Not sure if it's been around longer. Anyways. This place holds very dear to me on terms of affordable milk tea and great food for an inexpensive price. 6.50 for a popcorn chicken rice combo with a free drink of black tea or I forgot the other (2018 current price). The food is tastier in my opinion compared to the Alhambra location near the wendys on Las tunas. Also they don't pack your Togo in a styrofoam container. The chicken is alot crispier and more seasoned. The pickled veggies is the winner with fried tofu and the rice with the minced pork and green beans, along with the tea egg. I've managed to come here budgeting for a filling meal for under 7 bucks and can't complain. It's always filling and VERY tasty but also inexpensive. Call ahead for orders or just show up. Thanks Quickly (San Gabriel) for always keeping it old school but fresh. FYI: cash only.

    this place is okay. the service is bad and the cashiers are kind of rude, but the drinks are okay. I wouldn't come here that much.

The spot is casual and comfortable with chairs and tables to sit and happily enjoy your order. My son had the very berry banana smoothie and he said it was outstanding. I tried the super greens juice which was freshly made and tasted great. They have a build your own bar for bowls, salads and wraps that we will be back to try!

I ordered a harissa chicken salad and the guy grabbed one directly from the fridge. I took it to-go and didn't think much of it, but when I opened it a little later, I found mold in the bowl (that's after I already started to blend the salad and ate a few bites). I don't know how much mold was there and how long has it been there, but felt very grossed out. Then I took a look at the date on the package - it was packed on 3/8, and today is already 3/12! Unfortunately I was already too far to go back to them. But I just can't believe they were charging a 4-day-old salad $13 pre tax as if it were fresh. I think I'd probably do better with fast food salad. Now I'm also worried about getting sick from the bites I took. I definitely won't come back. Who knows what do they put in their smoothies..: The additional star is for a wrap I got a while ago that tasted good.
