I thought it was pretty good, though it doesn't take the place of my favorite flavor, which I had the next time. All in all, I think they have very good quality ingredients. Typical of a lot of boba spots, ordering is kiosk-based (at least the times I've been there) so you don't really interact with the employees much, but they seem professional and are working hard. The kiosk for ordering is easy to navigate. It's nicely decorated and comfortable inside, and there is some seating. Upbeat vibe and busy, central location. If I were in downtown Walnut Creek and was craving boba, this is where I would go.

And of course, the drinks are delicious. Everything tastes fresh, bright, and really well made. The boba has that perfect texture too, soft with just the right chew, which makes such a difference. You can tell they care about quality :P What really keeps us coming back, though, is the service. I think the owner is usually there, and he is incredibly kind. He always seems to go above and beyond. He's given my daughter a little treat more than once just to make her day, and one time he even helped me carry our baby stroller down the steps even though he absolutely did not have to lol :) Those small moments really stick with you. Great drinks are one thing, but that kind of genuine kindness is what makes a place feel special. It feels a little elevated, a little indulgent, and always like a nice little treat. We love it!!

We grabbed our drinks as soon as they were ready, but they were much thinner than expected and lacked the refreshing, icy texture I'm used to from smoothies. The strawberry flavor was also pretty weak. I've had much better drinks at other Yifang locations. Definitely not my favorite location. I'd suggest using more ice for a thicker, more refreshing drink. Drinks: 3/10 Service: 8/10

Bober tea and coffee is the place to buy boba and mochi donuts all in one place. How perfect if…read moreyou're a fan of both like me. To be honest though, I only like their pandan boba tea and I occasionally get the mochi donuts for my kids. They're good and I do love coming here when I'm in the area. The place itself is clean, bright and pink. They have this magnet wall for a cute instagram reel post and a telephone booth to take some cool photos. It is very small though. I don't think you can bring a large group to hang out and chill inside. They only have two tables and maybe 6 or 8 chairs. As for the service, it's efficient I guess. When you go inside you just go up to one of the two kiosk and then pay and that will send your order to the kitchen where they'll prepare your drink and then you just pick it up. The staff seem nice but because you barely interact with them, I can't really say anything else about their service. Any way if you found this review helpful, please give me a thumbs up and follow! See you at my next review!

But didn't realize it was under new ownership as the drinks hadn't changed at all. They do now have an order tablet which I'm usually a big proponent of, but this tablet cuts out any and all interaction or service, as they don't greet you or bring out your drink to you as the old owners did. Our drinks were sitting on the counter almost magically after another customer let us know they were there. The drink itself was largely the same with almost no differences to it, and the seating is exactly the same, so all in all, it's basically the exact same boba spot - just a little less friendly.

Everyone here -- whether they're new or have been around for a while -- is excellent at what they do. They're hardworking, friendly, and genuinely kind, and I really appreciate the care they put into making my drinks. Honestly, it makes my day every single time. Beyond the great service, the location itself is always well maintained. The staff clearly put in extra effort to decorate for different holidays throughout the year, which is such a nice touch and makes the space feel welcoming every time I walk in. At the end of the day, it's the people here that make this location special. Great drinks are one thing, but the consistent kindness and hard work from the team is what makes me want to keep coming back.

After ordering at kiosks, it took about 20 minutes for our drinks. Good things come to those who wait! We ordered: Bubble Milk Tea, light sweetness, less ice Dong Ding Milk Tea, perfect sweetness, less ice Both teas had really good tea flavor. Bubble Milk Tea being more of a traditional black tea and Dong Ding being closer to a green tea. The Bubble Milk Tea had more cream, not sure if this was on purpose. For sweetness, light sweetness was good for me with boba. Perfect sweetness would be good without boba. Overall, the tea was fantastic. 90th+ percentile, but also on the pricier side. Each tea comes with a disposable cup carrier. The space is also really nice place to hang out - modern, spacious, and with a couple of interesting tea-related things to look at including a running video of tea harvesting and processing. As we were looking around, we noticed they have free tea tastings, but reservations look like they book out at least a few days in advance. Really impressed with this shop and will make a point to visit next time we're in the area.

I went for my usual go-to for my visit, Passion Fruit Green Tea w/ boba. The drink was nice and sweet, and the boba had a good consistency to it.

Milk Tea Lab is now under new ownership at this location, and having been visiting this spot quite…read moreoften throughout that time I've become more than familiar with the quality and expectations of this place. This was my first time visiting them again since the ownership change so it's been a minute. What I see here now is just depressing, not just because the place was empty, but it's now devoid of anything that felt like a spot someone would want to hangout at. No music, when I got in there was one person waiting for their food and nobody was even at the front counter for minutes before somebody finally came out from the back. Ordering is just through the kiosk now, which isn't a bad thing. The part that was really rough was the reason why I even came here; the boba. I got a regular milk tea which now they only have a single size. I miss the extra large size they used to have, but oh well. The next issue comes with how much the boba actually costs. They may have gotten rid of the extra large cup sizes, but they're still charging the almost the same amount for it in a much smaller cup. What a deal, right? And we get to the actual drink. When the person making the drink after receiving your order finishes within a minute of making it, it's never a good sign. Why is that? Well, they had premade jug of milk tea ready to pour out for your tasting pleasure. When you have a premade jug of milk tea, it's never a good sign. While I've had them at other places that have done this before, and it's ranged from bad to mediocre, the one here at Milk Tea Lab, now, was in a word, rancid. It was incredibly gross with absolutely no redeeming qualities to it. I generally try not to be so harsh, but this was really not it and I couldn't even finish the boba because of how bad the milk tea was. It's sad to see how big of a dropoff this spot has become compared to what it used to be. This isn't like when they first opened where there were only 2-3 boba spots right next to them. Now there's at least a handful of options within a few minutes away, and dozens of spots within a mile or two, and this is what they're pushing out? It's a shame but this Milk Tea Lab which was their starter store is no longer a place I would ever go back to for boba. It's time is now past with this new ownership.
