    This is a wonderful bubble tea shop in Salem! Their tea is really good quality and served in a cute looking cup. It was super refreshing on a hot day and made with extra ice, just how I like it. I got my tea within 5 minutes of ordering and it was perfectly delicious. I look forward to trying their other locations.

    Sandwich menu as of August 2024.

    Hands down the BEST boba tea in Salem! We happily stumbled across this tea shop and wish we would have sooner as we would have not only had boba tea here but lunch as well. They carry a great menu of sandwiches at very reasonable prices- especially being in a touristy area. I'd definitely recommend coming here for a cafe lunch instead of the more popular spots on Essex Street. We decided upon a lychee fruit tea with lychee jelly and a brown sugar milk tea (less sweet) with boba (regular size $5.75 each). Both drinks were absolutely spot on! We experienced the friendliest of service too. Parking was easy as well. We were able to park on Derby Street via a coin meter, but the South Harbor parking garage is steps away, too. Delicious boba with a great menu and ability to customize paired with exceptional customer service - this place is a winner!

    They serve more than just Bubble Tea. They serve boba drinks, milk teas, smoothies/slushies, cookies, macarons, and more. So we came here on a whim. My sister, brother in law and friend really liked their drinks. I ordered the Taro. To be honest, I like mine too but it did not taste like Taro. We liked the chocolate chip cookies. I like how the macarons too. Service: the people were friendly (super nice). I accidentally left my favorite tumbler in their store and they held it for me until I was able to pick it up. That was very very cool. I was happy that I did not lose it. I will never forget it. Ambiance: I like how they decorated the store but it was simple. Maybe needs a little renovation. Thank you !

    Pineapple Smoothie
    Amelia B.

    We popped in and ordered a pineapple smoothie and waffle cone with coffee ice cream and whipped cream, and I wondered why it took longer than I had expected to get the ice cream until it came out. It was enormous, and the waffle was still warm. We expected a typical waffle cone, but this was a freshly-made waffle folded into a cup and topped with ice cream. They were out of whipped cream, and my daughter was disappointed until she took her first bite, and then she no longer cared about the missing whipped cream. What a fun twist on a traditional ice cream treat! The pineapple smoothie was light and sweetly tart, just pineapple and ice whipped together. Yummy!

    Good boba shop located right next to jodi bees bakery. Lots of drink and topping choices are available. We tried a blueberry and mango smoothie (slush) and a matcha milk tea.

    Taro milk bubble tea with boba

    My kids and I found this place as we were touring the Salem Witch Trials landmarks. Staff very nice and the boba milk teas were delicious. We ended up going each time we went out to explore. We also tried their macaroons and especially loved the lavender flavor! Can't wait to go back again!

    Great to find a Boba shop whilst touring the Salem area! Went with the mango smoothie with boba. Large cost $7.22 without tip. The smoothie tasted a bit artificial, no pieces of fruit to be found. However, it was still flavorful and the boba were the proper consistency. Nice change of pace from the usual drinks consumed.

    Piña Colada Smoothie

    got the piña colada smoothie with regular boba and it was YUMMY i will be getting it again at their boston location!!

    Taro Milk Tea with Black Boba

    Visited Salem this past weekend and went to Sweet Boba 3 times!!! So good, and reasonably priced. I really loved that you can control the sugar level of your drink. That way you're not getting something too sweet or vice-versa. Highly recommend!

    Waffle with Ice Cream
    Ivy L.

    Visited and got a fresh warm bubble waffle with peanut butter ice cream. Getting one with large ice cream and three toppings came out to about $11.24 after tax. It came out pretty fast and you can see them make them behind the counter. Although the bubble waffle was good, I think it's a bit more of a novelty experience. Its easy to share with a friend because the waffle tears into the bubbles so easily and you can dip it into the ice cream. The contrast between the warm and cold is quite pleasant.

They also sell chocolates and gifts, adding to the "fun little shop" feel as soon as you walk in. I went specifically for ice cream because I was looking for a nearby ice cream shop, and this one caught my eye. It wasn't too crowded when I visited, and the staff was relaxed, friendly, and helpful while getting my scoop ready. I ordered a cookies-and-cream-style flavor with a blue base and cookie crumbles, and it was exactly what I needed on a hot Friday afternoon during a Massachusetts heat wave. I got the smallest (pixie, 4oz) size, and it was plenty for me. Overall, it's a very cute, kitschy little shop that's easy to pop into if you're in town. I wish I'd had more time to explore the gifts and chocolates, but even just stopping in for ice cream was a fun treat.

A must-visit boutique in Salem for holiday shopping and magical/one-of-a-kind goodies.

There are a couple breakfast "chubbies" with things like eggs, cheese, and sausage. There's a Mac n' cheese chubbie, snd 3 flavors of Fatties (aka cookies).

I did have 1/2 and saved some for the next day but I think it's best when it's warm (as all cookies are!).

The inside is on the smaller side, but they do have an outdoor patio with some tables. They change out the cookies on a rotation, so new cookies are always popping up. We ordered the trio that included the cookies shown in the picture. There was an assembly line of bakers cooking up batch after batch of cookies behind the counter. There was a warmer that had boxes of cookies ready to go. The cookies were similar to Crumbl Cookie, but I feel these are a step above. That are a bit smaller than Crumbl, but I think they were better in consistency and taste. My daughter got the chocolate soft serve, but it wasn't the traditional milky soft serve. It wasn't bad, but wasn't incredible either. Stop in for a taste!

However, I did not have to wait for a seat and was given a menu immediately after being seated. I ordered the Nutty Professor latte and let me tell you, this was so divine! I tasted a hint of Nutella cream and how delicious this was that I was no longer disappointed about being seated outside. I also ordered the Shroom Sandy sandwich, I wish I ordered two (one for breakfast and one for lunch). It was that good! The sandwich was prepared with house marinated portobello, scrambled eggs and spinach and Swiss cheese. I felt energized for the two hours I walked around after only eating half.
