Our family has been to Rocketbelly several times and really enjoys the experiences we have had there. Olivia has created such a fun and welcoming environment to drink yummy tea, eat tasty food (with special artistic touches from her mom) and to hang out with friends. If you are in the area, come check out Rocketbelly! It totally rocks! read more

Arlington Foodies Kronsie fam absolutely loves Rocketbelly. Olivia has created a super cool OUT OF THIS WORLD place. We had a couple kids meals. Couple 3 piece meals and some eggrolls. And of course some of the best self serve boba in arlington. The chicken is fried perfectly, the eggrolls are phenomenal and the sauce, ohhhhh the sauce. The japanese curry sauce (coined Mars Sauce) is so good you couod drink it. And the honey butter fries will send your tummy to space for sure! Yall try this place when you can. read more

Cute little boba tea place near Kowloon that also serves a little food. It has a casual, playful vibe complete with board games and a full-sized Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova arcade game. Probably the most unique thing about this place is that it has self-serve bubble tea with a rotating selection of flavors. You can sample the flavors then create your own bubble tea complete with a variety of boba and other toppings. The teas are sweet but they have a couple of unsweetened teas you can add to dilute some of the sweetness. The tea flavors are interesting but if you have a go-to standard flavor they may not have it. I went with the jasmine milk tea with their standard boba plus matcha boba. It was good overall but the matcha boba texture was a little stale. I didn't try the food. read more

The boba flavors are way too sweet, there is no way to control the sugar in the drinks. Ice machine was broken and out of ice. No adults around to manage the business. Place was not very clean and there are what seems to be diy improvements being made at the business and the work quality is not very good. Chairs are extremely uncomfortable. Not an inviting place to sit and have a boba. The child running the cash register is very sweet, but I suspect there are some child Labor laws being broken with this setup. read more

The host is great. As soon as we entered she greeted us. The selection of boba makes it so hard to choose. We got to sample everything before we decided on a drink. I love the setup it's very relaxed and casual atmosphere. I will definitely be back read more

Definitely a GREAT PLACE TO JUST HANG OUT.. read more

New boba place owned by a kid! Great start up. She has a great story. Come hang and play some games and make your own drink! Different flavors that remind you of a typical boba flavor but so different! read more

Rocketbelly - Ube coconut on the left and jasmine milk tea on the right - Desserts Near Me - Arlington, Texas

First things first, the presentation and aesthetic of the store is well done to have a space themed boba shop. They have a unique self-serve boba stations with assortment of flavors and choices of toppings you can sample. That's where the good ends. The boba teas themselves are nothing special, it just seemed like something that tasted out of a bulk mixing package. I ordered chicken strips and fries, it unfortunately damaged my visit there. Lol dramatic. The pricing on these felt over-priced compared to the portions, furthermore the fries were so over salted I couldn't even make it past a few fries without masking it with sauce. The batter on the chicken was nice and crispy kind similar to a katsu texture, but it wasn't anything special either. If you wanna try out a unique boba place, go ahead. Just tempt your expectations. read more

Such a great idea! Free samples of all of the teas. Olivia, the young owner, is so sweet! We got the ube mixed with the pink coconut and thai tea mixed with pink coconut. We had just stuffed ourselves on pho next door so we didn't try any of the boba or jellies but they had a huge selection. They have the largest selection of any boba shop I've seen. We'll definitely be back to support miss Olivia's business! read more

Used to go to Olivia's previous store 'Fresh Bubbles Tea and Cookies' before their landlord switched and they were forced to vacate. My fiancee and I were thoroughly impressed when we first read the sign out front stating that Olivia was the one that owned the shop and her previous experiences. Both Olivia and her mother Mary are great folks. Their teais on the sweeter side but that is my personal preference anyways. My fiancee always loves the pandan and ube desserts that they always have in supply. I may have gone a few too many times though because they've started to recognize me when I walk in. Lol. read more

This place was so much fun! First of all Olivia is adorable and greets everyone at the door! We were able to try all the teas and all the bobas. No limits. It's a one cup charge so you can load up on boba! The food was really good too. Tried the honey fries DELICIOUS! And the chicken tenders. Sat and ate and played games that they have a ton of. read more

Went in today and got my usual so I don't need to sample it - because I know what it taste like. I get to my car, take a sip and it is extremely bitter. To the point where it's not drinkable. Again, it's the same flavor I always get there's no need to taste it. I go back inside and very politely tell her that there must be something wrong with the tea because it's not good today and if I can switch it out for another flavor. She tells me "that's why you need to taste it first" I let her know there's no need because it's what I usually get and it's always been good. Except for today. If a child is going to run the shop then the child needs basic customer service training. There's too many boba shops in the area to give bad customer service. read more

AMAZING! Nothing short of amazing being able to see little Ollie work as hard as she does at the front and entertain guests like no other kid in the world. Food is spectacular, comes out HOT and fresh. Place has so many cool features to it like their shelf of games provided (not to forget to mention the classic dance dance revolution machine that I've yet to try out!!) SO many varieties of boba stickers that I get two (or more lol) EVERY SINGLE time. Saying this place is out of the world is not exaggerated as my belly and HEART always comes out so, so full when I take my leave. I can tell this family owned business works so incredibly hard at what they do and do not stop at creating amazing things to the menu and off the menu. They are constantly and creatively thinking, throw out new little to big additions every so often. Please try everything on the menu. EVERYTHING! Otherwise, someone (like me) will literally order everything out! Lol! From all their dishes and sides to sweets, everything is unbeatable y'all. Drinks are dairy-free, homemade, and YUMMMY! (Meaning the lactose intolerant community bellies can come out nice and happy.) read more

Drinks options are okay, but the teas are pretty good. Also a large variety of toppings that you can use as you please! I think the price is great for what you're getting ($5.60 for a 16 oz cup) it's really nice you can sample all the flavors before committing to one as well They also have a rewards program so you can have even more deals! Though, I was put off by the three children in the shop by themselves (2 playing video games on a setup in the corner- even more off putting because they're right in view when picking toppings, and the one little girl running the register) while there were no adults in view. Not the weirdest thing especially with small business, but enough to note Bye y'all r so weird for being that fucking rude over a review that wasn't even harsh. There's nothing wrong with kids playing nor was I ever rude about OLIVIA oh and I'm also sooooo sorry that I don't pay attention to random people around me to know you guys were the parents. It's so weird that you were butthurt enough to go through and try to find me on the camera. I still stand by what I said. Even more so now. Very proud of your daughter for starting her own business but i still don't want to see kids sitting on the floor in a messy ass corner while I'm trying to do something. I was actually going to go back because I understand which is HWY I said I understand considering it's a small business. Literally nothing wrong with that maybe people just don't want to see it. Don't understand why you chose to respond to me so harshly isntead of the other two ACTUAL rude reviews read more

Rocketbelly - Desserts Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Seen this place on tiktok so decided to try it with my friend. What I didn't know was that it's owned by an 12 year old??? Amazing! She was quick to greet you when you entered, and happy to explain how the self serve worked! And she cashes you out! It's a fun environment, with lots of games to play while you hang out, and the signature milk tea was my favorite! Cant wait to go again! 10/10! Had to tell all my friends! read more

Not worthy of the hype. A lot of sizzle for not a lot of steak. Food was cold, apathetic service. Expected better.

This place is Great! Lots of options and it's self serve! Great service, and such a fun atmosphere. Tea is delicious and has dairy free options read more

Very good vibes, food, and drinks. The self serve is really sick and all the flavors are pretty good. It's also nice that they have little tester cups. The food was quite scrumptious as well and wasn't too pricey. Would highly recommend if you're in the area. Plus the vibes of the place and the people there are all great too read more

What a fantastic find & literally the BEST boba tea we have ever had! This place is family friendly, has an excellent selection of teas and a ton of boba, popping boba, & jellies! They also have great cookies, food and other sweets, like homemade marshmallows. We were mostly impressed by the owner of Rocketbelly, Miss Olivia, who kindly greeted us & welcomed us the minute we walked in the door! She is an impressive & determined, 10 year old young lady, who is a true entrepreneur, a homeschool scholar and certainly loves what she does! She decides the boba tea flavors, the cookie flavors/designs and also what is offered in the entire business. She is supported by her whole family, who all work hard alongside her! It is Miss Olivia who will tell you that she wants you to sample each and every flavor of tea, as well as sampling any boba you might want in your drink. She wants you to be a fully satisfied with your own boba creation when you leave her shop! Don't forget your chicken with rocket sauce, honey butter fries, beef sticks & unique cookies! Miss Olivia is the star of the shop! She wants customers, both grown ups and kids, to feel welcome and to enjoy a special treat that she has creatively made just to bring smiles! We love supporting small businesses, especially those owned by young entrepreneurs! Make no mistake, this place is built with love, hard work, creativity, determination & dedication! This is the one of the very best self serve Boba Tea places in Texas, & quite possibly the entire USA! We will be back for sure and can't wait to share our great experience with all of our friends! (We regret not getting more pictures. There are board games to enjoy with your family as well, when visiting Rocketbelly) read more

Finally got a chance to stop by for a quick bite and boba tea after a friend told me about this hidden gem. I quickly got a greeting from Olivia at the counter, and she explained to me how the self served boba tea works. I got the original milk tea with coffee jelly and also got the Mars plate with the curry sauce on the side. Both the tea and the food were tasty. I specially LOVED the space theme of the store since I'm a space-nerd. I will definitely need to go try out other things on the menu and boba tea combinations. read more

Great concept-loved being able to sample the Boba and teas before we decided on what to buy. The young owner was so sweet and explained everything to us as first-timers! read more

It's cute and adorable, the apps are delicious and the boba is extremely tasty. The owner is very friendly, the atmosphere is out of this world! I'd definitely come back again! read more

Great food, and great people! Olivia, Mary, and the rest of their family are the best! They will make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door. They have an excellent selection of bubble teas (and, you may sample before you buy), and boba balls as add-ins. The atmosphere is bright and engaging. The menu has been expanded to include chicken bites (out-of-this-world flavor), beef bites, skewers, etc. For lunch, dinner, or in-between snack, you can't go wrong with Rocketbelly! read more

The girl and her family that run this shop are very nice make sure the customers have a good experience. There are many great tea flavors to choose from as well as many types of popping boba, jellies, and normal tapioca pearls. The are fun board games and a dance dance revolution game set up that my friends and I had fun playing. read more

Please come and give this place a try when you can. I loved their other location and was so sad when they closed it. However, I'm a little happy that they did because now their new location is so close to my home!!! I always feel welcomed by Olivia when I go and I often get the pandan milk tea when I go. They have food now which is new and I'm a huge sucker for fries, and their honey butter fries did not disappoint. Me and my boyfriend will most likely be coming more often to play their fun board games and cool DDR station. This is my first ever review on yelp over the few years of me using/having it so this is a lot for me to say, so please go and support rocketbelly if/when you can :) read more

I come here often as of every 2 months and I'm so glad they finally added more than one size cup so now I could enjoy the goodness longer. The service is amazing and polite felt good vibes there. read more

Went on a date to this spot and it was AMAZING! The service was awesome, as soon as we walked through the door, we were greeted by a little girl named Olivia. They had so many options more than any Boba shop I've ever been to and on top of that, I loved almost all the flavors!! You can pick whatever you want and how much you want! read more

This place is wonderful! Their tea and food is delicious, and I'm glad they added machines to adjust the sweetness if needed. The idea of the boba being self-serve was a good idea and Olivia is the sweetest little girl you will ever meet! I took some friends there and they find it good too, though they do have suggestions for which I'll leave here for Olivia to consider :). One thing was the cup sizes, the bottles are cute, but maybe there could be sizes for the regular cups (small, medium, large). And another thing was one of my friends said it was kind of weird seeing one of the kids sleeping in the corner and I was thinking if it was possible for them to have their own room so the kids can have their own space. But other than that everything was good and my friends and I enjoyed our time here :). read more

This place is located in a small shopping center next to Kowloon but just so cute. I love the free tasting and create your own boba concept with unlimited free toppings. Who wouldn't love that?

this place is THE best! The food is great, the boba is great, but Olivia is the smartest, SWEETEST little owner!

I have always come back to Rocketbelly for Boba ever since I discovered a news coverage video on Instagram. When I first tried it, I thought it was good, but I wasn't crazy about it because I am so used to Boba places having more "extra" looking drinks. You gotta remember, this is a build it your own boba place. The drink is whatever you make it. Honestly was skeptical on a "DIY" boba place but now I have come back so often. It's simple but so delicious. I especially love the Ube and Thai Tea flavors along with the Plain/Brown Sugar boba! Rocketbelly has become my go when it comes to where I stay for work. Olivia always greets me every single time I walk in, so I know the service is always going to me amazing. The ambiance of course is so cute. The space theme really lives up to it's name. Writing this as I am sick and craving boba right now lol keep up the great work girl! read more

The tea was delicious. The owner is fantastic and welcoming. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Olivia gave great customer service. There was a great selection of teas and toppings. The tenders were delicious too. I would highly recommend checking it out! read more

Delicious Boba Tea! Self serve and tasting cups so you can experience all the flavors. Black tea (unsweetened) on the counter to add to teas if you like less sweet. The tapioca boba is made fresh daily. So good. The family running this place are very committed to their customers. Olivia (the 10 year old) runs the counter and welcomes everyone and plays games with customers. She is a home schooled genious! The food looks delicious but we haven't tried any yet. Games to play with your family while enjoying your tea. Family friendly. read more
