Decent drinks, and good service. Sweet sip sells drinks (milk tea, fruit tea, smoothies, coffee), egg puffs, ice cream, and macaroons. The boba was good. The milk tea itself was ok. Some drinks taste more artificial than others. There are a few tables inside, and it wasn't too busy on a weekend afternoon. Service was good and the drinks were made fast. Most people seem to order their drinks and leave. I would rate it a 3.5/5, rounding up to a 4/5.

Came here with my family (my cousins and uncles) and we desperately needed to get some refreshments while touring Boston. WOW, the selection and flavor had us floored! It was so good we ordered it for delivery at our airbnb one more time before we left. Im from the West Coast and this is better than most boba shops there. My uncle had a peach drink he loved, the viet iced coffee was sweet and strong, and the Okinawa milk tea with cheese foam was my favorite. The second time around I got a strawberry banana smoothie and OH MY GOD, I didn't think a boba shop could have this much range in their selection Highly, highly recommend, definitely our first stop whenever we're in town!

Mango Rolled Ice Cream with fresh mango on top

Sweet sip and tastes here. Didn't know anything about rolled ice cream until recently. Sweet Sip was recommended by a student I work with and it is a good spot to go to if you are looking for or need a sweet treat. The fresh mango was indeed fresh. You definitely can share a rolled ice cream bowl with someone easily and still be satisfied. I recommend sharing because the portions are generous and sharing makes the treat worth it money wise especially if you are money conscious &/ want to enjoy this treat more than once a week. For one rolled mango ice cream with fresh mango on top it was $7.25

So you got your replacement hip And the coldsore faded from your lip Now it's time to go drink Some good boba, I think And you'll find some right here at Sweet Sip! I really like this place! I wasn't expecting to because something told me that I wouldn't love the drinks here, but then I went ahead and I got the Strawberry Black Tea with Boba and I really enjoyed it! It had big chunks of strawberry in it and it tasted very fresh and very real and wasn't too sweet and I enjoyed all the sips and all the Boba and I'll definitely come back here again and try some of their other products. They have Vietnamese iced coffee as well (it's a Viet area) and plenty of other stuff that I want to try. They seem really friendly and it's definitely cool to have a little locally-owned place that is not corporate. Next door is the wonderful Bambu but I still prefer to come here and give all the money to little family businesses, and honestly, I love their products here. So if you take a sip here, it'll be SWEET Like my tan tattoos or Barbie's FEET So many Boba places here it's really NEAT Some on this road, some on the other STREET Don't leave without paying, that's DECEIT And I don't have friends who lie and CHEAT Unless it's on your boyfriend at a fancy RETREAT In fact, this weekend, that's where we'll MEET WHAT

Strawberry matcha latte....
Katherine L.

I was really looking forward to trying a new boba dessert place in Dorchester, but this place sadly did not deliver. Upon arriving, I noticed they had a large variety of options to choose from on their menu and was excited to try everything. We ordered a pandan egg waffle and the matcha strawberry latte. The pandan egg waffle was okay, but the matcha strawberry was practically inedible! It was so chalky and difficult to swallow. When we shared this with the cashier, he said we would have to pay for another drink because we "already drank it". I was so disappointed that I immediately went over to tbaar in Quincy and got another drink Plenty of other boba places in the area to try with great customer service!

Froyo
Deja V.

Not too many decent dessert places around Dorchester. It's hard to find that unicorn . This is not one of that place. It got a decent extensive menu of smoothies , coffee , teas and roll up ice cream. Nice setting decor inside with several seatings and tables . The smoothies are little bland and the froyo are decent. Nothing special . Maybe next time I'll try other smoothies or Viet coffee.

Mangonada
Nina P.

I got the mangonada and it was delicious ! I will definitely order from this place again.

Passion Pineapple Butterfly®  Made with with Passion fruit jellies and passion fruit boba.
April O.

Me and my children decided to try this place out. I got a mango madness rolled ice cream and a passion pineapple butterfly tea. The drink was light and refreshing. The first sip caused that little zippy feeling at the back of your jaw (which was fun). The rolled ice cream was delicious. It was smooth and creamy and loaded with mango flavor. My kids boy loved what they got. I will 100% be back to this place.

Rose lychee butterfly and Pineapple passion butterfly
Melanie W.

Stopping by for a drink after dining in Dorchester. We got the rose lychee butterfly and berry butterfly. Their butterfly drink never disappointed us. Every time I said I gonna try other drinks but I always ended up getting their butterfly drink.

Late night boba
Sam D.

Just go to Bambu next door. This place is a low quality boba/dessert place. Everything tasted bland. The tea tasted watered down and lacked flavor. The boba did not taste like boba, it tasted like plastic, as if they purchased cheap premade boba. They have a decent seating area with board games but unfortunately their boba tea lacks flavor. The one thing that does look cool is the frozen ice cream unlimited toppings. I didn't try their ice cream so I can't vouch for the taste. Next door is Bambu and their boba tea is some of the best I've ever had

Butterfly pea lemonade!
Le T.

Nice addition to the Dorchester community! Butterfly pea lemonade is ridiculously addicting! I'll be sure to come back and try their rolled up ice creams! Nice staff and very clean environment.

Should of read the reviews first. The boba tea is flavorless. Egg puff was ok. Macaroons were also ok.

Call it a tourist trap if you want, but I loved Mike's Pastry! I visited on a Friday afternoon, and…read morewas surprised it wasn't super full. There was a line, but it moved quickly - we waited about 10 minutes total. We tried several things: pistachio, limoncello, pecan caramel cannoli and the pecan caramel cheesecake. I didn't even think I liked cannoli at all based on a previous experience, but WOW - these changed my perspective. They were sweet without being overwhelming. The cheesecake was delicious as well. Heads up, as other reviews have mentioned, it's cash only. Luckily, my mom is old school and always carries cash with her. I wish I lived in Boston - I'd love to come back to try their other offerings.

Maybe this place is just a tourist trap, but I dropped by because I heard such great things about…read moreit. I guess I lucked out because when I went (Wednesday, around 3 PM), there was virtually no line. I heard it can get super busy, so beware. This place is cash only, and the service is really straight-to-the-point. I guess they just want people in and out quickly. There's not really anywhere you can sit, so definitely just get what you want and go. The bakery itself is kept very simple and minimal. Sweets are displayed behind the glass, and there are plenty of signs along the wall that display what they have to offer. There were a lot of different goodies, but I noticed that people really only ordered the cannolis. I got a singular chocolate chip cannoli, and I think it really threw the person helping me off that I only got one to try. Pastries are packaged in a nice blue box and securely tied with a long string. The cannoli itself tasted pretty nice, but I wish there were more chocolate chips other than the ones that coated the areas of visible filling. I liked that the shell was crunchy and flaky. I can't say much because this was my first time having a cannoli, so I have no point of comparison. Not sure if I can eat a lot of it in one sitting.

My friend and I were on the hunt for a good ice cream spot that gave the "farm fresh ice cream"…read morevibe and we came across Dairy Freeze during our search. The ice cream itself was sooo good. I got my usual: soft serve twist with rainbow sprinkles in a waffle cone. The cone was so fresh and flavorful, the rainbow sprinkles also tested fresh (I love when the sprinkles have their own distinct taste. That's how you know they're fresh), and the soft serve was cold and creamy. The dream. My friend got the cookie dough hard ice cream in a waffle cone and she really liked it too. The ordering/waiting lines were wild. Idk if it was an off-night when we went, but there were at least 15 people standing around waiting for their ice cream while we were in line ordering. Then it came our time to wait and it took 12 minutes just to get these 2 cones out. The kitchen was closed by the time we were there too, so no one was waiting on food. We were all waiting on an ice cream cone. I feel for them - it was a hectic summer night and everyone wants good ice cream - but I honestly hadn't seen anything quite like this before!

This was my dad's go-to ice cream place growing up, so we had to visit when we were in the area. My…read moredad says they are known for their soft serve ice cream, but I went with their hard serve cookie dough. The hard serve ice cream is from Richardson's. If I am ever back in the area, I definitely would get the soft serve staple. Service was friendly and fast. The parking lot is not ideal with only a few spots but customers were in and out and there is always street parking. Support local and come on out!
