The reviews about minimal customer service are accurate. Ordering is done through a kiosk and your number gets called. The staff were friendly when we got our drinks, but the exchange was brief. The space, though, is super Instagrammable with lots of playful decor. Parking is a little tight out front, with some extra spots along the side street. I ordered the crème brûlée taro milk tea with boba, and my husband got the regular crème brûlée milk tea with boba. Flavor-wise it was good, but my drink had a lot happening texture-wise. Between the crystallized sugar, grainy taro, and boba, it caught me by surprise. Once everything was mixed together, it was fine, just not my favorite. Still a fun spot with creative drinks, and I'd be open to trying something else next time! read more

You order at a kiosk with no real person making recommendations. I should've known this place would be more created for photo ops than good quality products. Even so, the ambience seems like the decorations were cute, but very cheap and damaged overtime with little to no repairs. But I didn't come here for aesthetics. I came here for great Boba tea and sweet treats. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. What looked like a traditional milk toast dessert, was literally four pieces of stale bread, toasted and stacked on top of each other. that tasted freezer burnt with lots of sauce on top. No topping between each layer so it was not flavorful or tasty and all you could taste was a weird chemical flavor from the bread. Same thing with the ice cream, so freezer burnt that it tasted of chemicals, cardboard, and didn't even melt despite sitting on the plate for 15+ minutes. The Taro tea itself was fine with the crème brûlée topping, but the brown sugar Boba had the same chemical "going bad" flavor to it. It was super hard and bitter tasting instead of sweet. The soufflé pancakes were fine, but the ice cream was terrible on that too. It's hard to mess up Ice Cream, but somehow they managed. read more

Delicious sweet treats and plenty of fancy decorations for all the photo ops. Parking could be a little confusing but it's in front in the street or in the back that's covered. Taro, Ube, boba, they have it all here and it's decently priced. Don't expect anything amazing service wise. You order from a kiosk and your number is called. Drinks were good so if you're looking for dessert and in the area give them a shot. read more

This is an adorable little spot... very instagrammable with the cherry trees and cute neon and whatnot. I wandered over here for a boba and got the taro with pearls. Delicious!!! Service is kind of meh because you don't talk to anyone to order, or when you receive your drink... it's all automated but there IS someone behind the counter making the orders!! It just felt very impersonal, hence one star off. The drink itself though was amazing. Perfect amount of pearls and the taro was made from paste not powder. So good! read more

This place has been on my list for a while, but under my North Austin bookmarks...I didn't realize they had a location in SoCo! Since the SoCo location is much closer to me, I was happy that a friend wanted to meet here for a Friday afternoon get-together. There are plenty of tables and the vibe is all pink and floral---definitely perfect for Valentine's day all year round! There are a TON of drinks and desserts to choose from. The reason I even had this place bookmarked was because of their souflee pancake dessert. So that is what I got---the strawberry soufflé pancakes without ice cream (it does come with an ice cream scoop of you have that voracious sweet tooth!). My pancakes were pretty good - I was expecting the sauce to have a thicker consistency, it was more like melted whipped topping. The pancakes were also more on the chewy side and not that fluffy. Since we were chatting away, I didn't bite into plate until about 10 minutes after they were ready, so it's possible they might taste differently if eaten immediately after they're cooked. My friend got an avocado smoothie and mango sticky rice. She enjoyed her plate but the smoothie was definitely on the larger side! It would be nice if they can offer smaller sizes and not just one big 20+oz cup! The staff was super chill and I'm glad they weren't in a rush to kick us out. We were there for about 3 hours! read more

Been here before and this time came with a larger group. The soufflé pancake isn't what I expect-it seems more like pancake than a soufflé. Tiramisu is sweet. Mango sticky rice-they have an option for kiwi and it's actually their default fruit but they ran out of kiwi. I've personally never heard of kiwi sticky rice. I've always gotten mango sticky rice (at Thai restaurants). Surprised that mango costs $1 more. Ube crepe cake-it's good but nothing extraordinary. Overall, their desserts are ok and kind of expensive. I would go back for the drinks. They have cool toppings I don't get to see at other tea places such as mermaid tears. They look like blue popping boba-love! Got their stuffed animal bumblebee-it's so cute! The inside is decorated nicely and has a lot of flowers. read more

Another hit from sweet memes - the taro souffle pancake! The cream that goes on it is reaaally really good. It's sweet but not too sweet and ofc the pancake itself is always good. It's like $15 including tax, so not bad. I got it via door dash and the entire prep/delivery time was about an hour so not too bad. read more

Sweet Memes is a trendy dessert spot along S Congress Avenue! Very cute inside with the decor, good amount of seating, and definitely lots of photo opportunities there if you're into that. Decent amount of parking (street, garage) nearby. The ordering process was easy with self-serve kiosks and we got our food quickly. Drizzle Croffle ($8.50, 4/5) - Served with ice cream, whipping cream, and drizzle syrup. You can choose the number of scoops (1 is default) and what syrup flavor you'd like. - I ended up getting a scoop of matcha ice cream and the matcha syrup flavor (if it wasn't clear already, I'm a fan of matcha) Overall I'm glad I tried this place out! The croffle was pretty good and the matcha additions complemented it well. I do feel like the prices of desserts at this place is a bit expensive, so probably wouldn't go back unless somebody else I knew wanted to try it for the first time. read more

Very 'instagrammable' - for better or worse. The entire shop is decked out in decor that seems prime for pictures - and in real life is a bit over the top and fake-feeling. There is really no service - you order at an electronic screen and your number is announced when your order is ready. The highly automated nature of this did not feel so welcoming. We ordered the Layer Cake. It was definitely sweet, but not of the highest quality. read more

Came here for dessert and overall had a good experience. The taro soufflé pancake was definitely the highlight--great flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. The whipped cream and ice cream paired really well with it. The tiramisu was just okay--nothing special. Would probably skip it next time.Tried a couple boba drinks (mango and taro soufflé flavors), and they were decent. Cool spot for a sweet treat, especially if you're into soufflé pancakes. read more

From the moment you walk in you are transported to an ethereal garden! The restaurant itself is so beautiful. The food was delicious and surprising in flavor and texture. We went for breakfast on Mother's Day (which I do not recommend as a breakfast stop most definitely a dessert stop) but the service was so quick and easy. Everything was sweet and decadent but the flavors of each item were not lost to the sugar or cream. Highly recommend if you ever have that sweet tooth itch!! read more

Came back to Sweet Memes for dessert after having dinner around the corner. Tried the strawberry syrup instead of the Carmel and after a few bites wished I would have gotten the Carmel again... that said, the strawberry was still good and went well with the waffle.

I ordered the classic "honey toast" and sea salt Vietnamese coffee. If you've ever had honey toast and know what it is, this is not it. They use regular sliced white bread. It's not the right bread for honey toast so don't bother. Don't disappoint yourself like I did. In the picture on the kiosk, it kinda looks like the right bread is used/displayed but it's hard to exactly tell cus the picture is small. Get something else like a croffle or soufflé. The people next to me got those and they looked good. The sea salt Vietnamese coffee didn't have a sea salt taste to it to me. It was good but in my opinion, just take sea salt out of the name. And there were giant fruit flies that kept buzzing around cus of the fruit and honey on the toasted white bread. So annoying and gross. read more

Very cute place with amazing desserts! We ordered the taro soufflé pancake and ube crepe, both were really good and I'd definitely order again. Soufflé pancake was so fluffy and the toppings complemented it very well without being too sweet. Ube crepe had a distinct flavor from the taro and also a really nice texture and semi-sweetness to it. There's a free underground parking garage directly behind the building with lots of parking spaces, just a little tricky finding when using GPS to get there for the first time. Also of drink options on the menu and other types/flavors of dessert. Went when it was pretty busy but our food came out fast and there was still lots of seating available. read more

Sweet Memes is a very cute dessert spot that has asian inspired desserts and drinks like boba! Food: They sell waffles, japanese souffle pancakes, french toast, crepe cakes, and more. Matcha souffle pancake($11.99): 8/10 Super fluffy and light pancakes. They are jiggly and cloud like. Very fun to eat and so easy to get down. Not dense, so I feel like I could eat the whole thing easily. It is drenched in a matcha sauce that is thin and creamy. The whole thing is surprisingly not too sweet. It is a good balance of sweetness and the slight bitterness from matcha. The icecream is a nice touch too! Taro Waffle($11.99): 8/10 The waffle is taro flavored, but very subdued so it doesn't actually taste like taro. It is a mild flavor, so it's basically like a normal flavored waffle. I love the texture, it's like a mochi waffle so it is chewy and has a pull to fight with as you eat it. There is no crunch on the outside unfortunately. And it does get soggy because of the ice cream on the top, so dont take too long eating it LOL. For the ice cream you can get between 1-3 scoops of either vanilla, chocolate, matcha, or strawberry ice cream. I got the vanilla and strawberry ice cream flavors and they were good! For the drinks I tried the: - Glory Pearl ($6.50) - it was lychee jasmine green tea with lychee jelly. I thought it was alright. Just like lychee fruit tea! - ⁠Crescent Moon ($6.50) - peach black tea with peach jelly. It is alright as well, i enjoyed the glory pearl more. Service: The items came out in a timely manner. There is a key to the bathroom (fyi) Ambiance: A cute and relaxing spot. It is clean and good for hanging out! The whole thing came out to around 40 dollars for two desserts and two drinks. I enjoyed the desserts overall and would come back! Check out my instagram @the.foodie.patootie for more detailed reviews! read more

The vibe here is super cute, so I was excited to go. I got the matcha mille feuille and very berry smoothie. The matcha mille feuille was decently good, however the portion was considerably small, and the matcha powder on top was extremely bitter which offset the taste of the sweet cream. Additionally, my smoothie was not good. There were many large seeds in it that made it hard to drink, it was simple (not sweet or sour), and it overall just didn't taste good. When I asked to have it remade, I was told they couldn't do so. I then asked for a refund and I was also declined that. I had to dispute the charge for the smoothie because it was practically inedible. Really, the only good part was the store being photogenic and the matcha mille feuille once I scraped the matcha powder off of it. Not going back, probably. read more

Sweet Memes is one of the most adorable establishments in Austin. If you are a fan of cutesy fairy and forest inspired decor and sweet treats, then this is the place for you! The service is basically automated when it comes to taking orders. You order off of a touchscreen menu that's pretty simple to use. When your order is ready, your order number will get announced and a staff will hand you your food. The menu is so diverse and awesome. My goal is to try everything on the menu eventually. They have every Asian dessert imaginable, including boba. I really enjoyed the matcha soufflé pancakes. It was a big serving yet it was light, fluffy, and savory. If you are a fan of unique and yummy desserts, this is the place for you! 11/10 recommend. read more

The decor of the place is so girly, flirty and cliché! I love all of the pink. When you come in you order through the two tablets and then bring your ticket to the register to pay for you order. If you are paying with cash you can come to the register and requests to pay there. Customer service is very minimal and not friendly. I ordered the Ube Crepe cake ($8.50) and the Rainbow in the Sky fruit tea ($6.00) I added aloe jelly which was about $.80 more. My total was about $17 with tax. I enjoyed the Ube cake. It wasn't great but it wasn't too sweet or earthy either. It's a big slice--all of the desserts here can be shared (not the waffles though they look small) my drink was good but the presentation with the fruit should look more like the photos. There is a parking garage with free parking and no time limit. There's also free street parking in the front! All in all a good experience. I would come back for a fruit tea or boba with the girls. read more

Sweet Memes leaves me with mixed feelings because on one hand I dont love the all pink, flowery extra decor One the other hand, I actually enjoy their boba drinks lol. I have mostly uber eats from this location - the brown sugar boba and peach milk tea are the best imo. what i have tried: brown sugar boba 8.5/10 peach milk tea 8/10 taro boba milk tea 7.5/10 I would be interested in trying their desserts - croffle and mango mille crepe. Service is very minimal, staffs dont really interact with you. read more

This spot is my go-to work remote work and studying! It's always very clean, you order yourself on the tablet, and the order comes out fast. There's spots for parking out on the street and in a garage as well. I really like how strong their teas are, and their boba is usually ok, though inconsistent some days. Love the waffles here too! read more

Delicious! As an ex-Californian, one of the things I miss most after moving to Austin was the the variety and accessibility to boba shops. Austin still needs to work on their boba game, but as of now, this place takes the cake (pun intended). As everyone here has mentioned, the décor is like a little wonderland. Definitely Instagram worthy. As for food and drink, I've had: Crescent Moon 8/10 - delicious fruity peach boba tea with some peach fruits & jellies inside. Blue Butterfly Pea Cheese Foam 10/10 - this drink definitely hits the spot if you're looking for a boba tea with cheese foam. Boba tastes drink and you can taste the tea flavor pretty well getting it at 75% sweetness. Plus the blue color is beautiful. Ube Milli Crepe 10/10 - the presentation for this dish is spectacular! And the flavor is amazing as well. Not too sweet, great texture. No complaints. They might even be better at desserts than drinks! Strawberry Souffle Pancake 9/10 - so damn fluffy! and amazing strawberry cream flavor. Again, A+ on the presentation. Can't wait to come back here and try some other drinks and desserts! read more

It's hard to find good boba places in the Austin area. As a Californian, I'm very picky with my boba and was losing hope in finding decent boba in Austin. However, this place was great. The drinks taste legit, and don't taste like the sugary tea filled with syrup or bland milk teas that I've had in Austin area previously. Also, the place is so cute and enjoyable to hang out in. Definitely coming back! read more

Street parking available. Was pretty much empty on a Tuesday evening around 8pm, except for a few studying students. Very large menu with huge variety of drinks and desserts. Opted for the mango souffle pancake, which was prepared very quickly by friendly staff. Came with a single pancake was ok, and the mango wasn't bad but not the freshest. The ice cream and enveloping cream was very tasty! Environment was very cute, decorated ostentatiously with fake flowers, neon lights, etc., perfect for a little Instagram photo shoot, or a quiet place to study. read more
