I was introduced to boba in college...but after leaving Virginia, it was almost impossible to find unless you visited larger metro areas-like DFW, Houston, and weirdly-Albuquerque had one in their mall. But Lubbock? Not a chance. So, I was absolutely delighted when when Teapioca opened, not only in Lubbock, but by my house! I love having access to boba tea, with the small town feel Lubbock is known for. The owners are almost always on-site and obviously care about product and service. Today, I asked for boba and a half-meaning what normally comes in the drink, plus about half a scoop more, vs. a whole. The employee had to think about it-but was determined to accommodate, even after I said if it was too hard, not to worry. Then, the owner happened to pass and mentioned that Crumbl had just brought them free cookies and she wanted to pay it forward, so she called it the "manager's special" and deducted it. There's nothing better than a business that really cares! That's why I'm a loyal customer. Thank you, Teapioca! LBK loves you! read more

Teapioca Lounge - Taro cream blast with boba and a half (see review.) I love their macs too, but ate them immediately! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

We came in for boba after dinner, not realizing they close at 9:00. The girl who was closing was very rude she threw our straws down, had a clear attitude, and kept giving us rude looks. It made me really uncomfortable. We were out the door by 9:00, so it's not like we were holding them up. If you're going to take orders that close to closing, there's no reason to treat customers like that. Completely unnecessary and unprofessional. read more

This visit is from January of 2024. This is objectively the best boba in town. Their fruit tea is very fresh, and they've got so many different amazing combinations of drinks. My girlfriend Claire and I are from LA, so there's so many boba shops there. But Claire is even more impressed with the Teapioca here than with even most places we love in SoCal or in bigger cities (Yifang, Sunbright, 85 etc). Quality control is excellent, when she visited town we went every day for 4 days in a row. We were surprised to see who we assume are the owners working hard behind the scenes gently guiding their employees to make the drinks in the best possible way. I can't stress enough that this place is so good and I hope it always stays that way. Next time we want to try the Snowyn Taiwanese shaved snow too, that's not something Lubbock gets a lot! read more

When I crave boba tea, I either go here or to West Straws. The customer service is much better here at Teapioca. Servers here are consistently kind, patient, helpful, and positive. The quality between the two businesses are similar in terms of beverage taste and general cleanliness, but I think the tea at West Straws is better. read more

Great location, wonderful service, the tea's themselves were too sweet. Ambiance was ok, nothing too extravagant but clean and well maintained. read more

I've been here twice now and both times really enjoyed my drink. I got the Taro Cream Blast with Strawberry Popping Bursters. The ladies working the store are nice and friendly. I just wish the prices were a bit lower. They have two sizes: the Regular 22oz and Large 44oz and the regular of what I ordered comes out to $6.50 after tax. Not bad, but I'd be inclined to come every day before work if it was $4.50-$5. read more

The menu was a tad overwhelming with all of the options but it was really good! Lots of combinations to try! I ordered the jasmine green tea with lychee flavoring and strawberry bursters. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was the wait was long and there was only 1 person in front of us who ordered 1 drink. read more

Teapioca Lounge - Lychee green tea with strawberry bursters - Bubble Tea Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

Love coming here the staff are so nice and the drinks are always good. Last night however I went in around 9:00pm and it was pretty busy. The owners I'm assuming (I only ever see workers around college age and this couple seemed 50+ years old) we're arguing very loudly by the machines that shake the drinks. The cashier seemed very embarrassed and uncomfortable, she later apologized for how they were acting. After I paid for my drinks I kind of just watched them in the kitchen and noticed how the staff tried to avoid the owners (again assuming they're the owners.) With that being said I just hope the staff is getting treated right and at the end of the day If they're speaking to each other that way it makes me wonder how they speak to the staff. read more

Owner is greedy and refuses to pour more ounces of beverage to your drink if you request "no ice". Stingy business will never succeed in todays "cancel" culture. Oh, and don't bother responding to this stingy owner, you really screwed up. Good job! read more

Coming to Lubbock, I didn't expect any good boba. But was I wrong! Teapioca had so many incredible options, and when my drink came out, it was honestly one of the best boba drinks I've had. This place was aesthetically pleasing inside with a vast menu and perfect prices. I can't rave about this place enough. Without a doubt, you need to go try it! read more

This will be a SHORT review because there isn't much to say. My wife & I live right around the corner and we LOVE their Boba Teas. My wife goes often enough that one of the friendly members of the staff now recognizes her and knows to look for the online order. Online: They do have an APP that allows online ordering! It is a pretty straight-forward app and easy to navigate. Coconut & Taro are the two flavors that we ALWAYS get and highly recommend. read more

This is easily the best boba in Lubbock. Try the boba madness for a treat that's off the beaten path! We've been easily a dozen times and each time was great. Our favorite is the taro boba and the honeydew. read more

I would highly recommend the Teapioca Lounge. My 9 & 7 yr old nephews take me here once a week. They love to order a regular size to share and they ask for a split cup. They will ask for random kinds or special orders and the employees are always so incredibly patient, sweet and helpful to them. The vibe is always so positive, we definitely will keep on coming back. Wonderful spot to dine in, service is over and above expectations, clean, friendly, highly recommend! read more

I was pleasantly surprised to find a boba shop in this area. Great options and wonderful beverages.

Very clean, spacious and cute! We stopped in probably about 30 min before closing time but it was still pretty busy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The menu is placed in multiple areas of the store which was helpful and made social distancing easier. The drinks are fairly priced, and the drink sizes are actually larger than most standard sizes. We ordered the Thai Blastea (which is a Iced Thai Tea) and it was delicious! Usually I have to ask for it to be sweeter at other bobas places, but they nailed it without having to substitute or add anything. Also ordered a Mango Strawberry smoothie with popping lychee and it was amazing. It didn't taste artificial or overly sweet. Definitely will be going back to try all of their other flavors! read more

Tried this place for the first time and absolutely loved it. Very tasty and so many flavors! Will definitely be back for more. Light Vietnamese Coffee Cream Matcha Tee w/ mini boba read more

I love the Taro madness. However, I hate it whenever they undercook the bobas!!!! It literally destroy my drink and I'm unable to enjoy the drink, spitting out every bobas in my mouth. Please cook the bobas properly. read more

The way I've been coming here every day this past week, morning, during lunch, after work and night it's hard not to give this place 5 stars! The drinks & macarons are amazing, and Lubbock has been needing a spot like this for a long time now, I'm glad they're here! However... their customer service could use some work. I tried to call in 15 minutes before close to place a call order, well they don't do that (I'm not sure why the store even has a number then) but okay no biggie they close at 9, I live 10 minutes away let me go out of my way to get some boba this late night. Well I arrive only to get some sas from the cashier when ordering, I asked for a chai tea boba drink and per her words "since I came in 5 min.. no 4 minutes before close we arent brewing tea anymore." So I couldn't get my chai. I politely explained to her that I tried to make a phone order prior to coming in last minute to which she said "well we do door dash & grub hub..." Well some of us don't want to go through several pages of an app to order a drink, sorry? I'm a customer I'm not here to go back and forth with you. I URGE the owner to start accepting phone orders 30 min before close, don't make me be out to be the bad guy because I'm coming 5 minutes before close. As far as I know you're fully operating until that front door is locked & chairs are up. Anyways I'll continue to come here, it's too good to pass up and things happen I just hope next time I'm not met with passive aggressiveness if I decide to make my way over before closing. read more

I can't say enough good things about the Teapioca Lounge!! Easily the best boba in Lubbock! I ordered the creamy green tea boba madness, and it was amazing! The boba was the perfect texture. They let you customize the sweetness level, and I got the 25% sweet level which was perfect. My wife ordered the mangonada and also loved it! It was refreshing with a perfect mix of sweet and salty. She also got the 25% sweet level. We will be coming back regularly!! read more

So service, wonderful and polite, nothing gobblegook in the way just you choose what your getting with a side to it and then you can walk back and wait. Now quality I presume is great as I got something I have not had before as with these special restaurants I got Thai BlasTea with Tapioca pearls which are very weird, but the Rea as it uses ice and is cool, it's tea nothing like a flavor overhaul or overflow just simple tea and with the tapioca pearls it may just be me I do feel a bit of distaste with them but it's quite nice. I say go and try the place and I would come back for more to try read more

Strange that a smoothie place cannot make a smoothie with fruit and fruit juice for those not wanting to consume sugar.

We ordered the "coconut cream madness" and "passion fruit black tea" with boba. My bf was a little skeptical at first about his "madness", but he loved it! The madness included a little bit of each topping/jelly they had -- amazing! read more

Great boba tea. I had the iced black tea with passion fruit and added bursters. I will return.

The interior was barren as a result of covid's social distancing restrictions. I'd like to come back when they have little tables around. For the drinks, the menu is a little complicated and extensive. The items are a little pricey but very tasty. I ordered two Thai iced teas one with boba and they were ready within five minutes. Dropped two stars because they claimed the big cups were 44 ounces when they're only 36 ounces. read more

The tea that my brother ordered for me was amazing but the macaroons were rock solid, so hard that I couldn't bite though it!! I was really excited to try the macaroons because their over $2 a piece. I though they would be amazing, but save your money or get another bubba tea. read more

Love this place. Always consistent and so good! Get their app because it's totally worth it!

It's the only place in Lubbock you can get a sweet red bean smoothie. It's so good I don't think I'll ever try their other items, even though the menu looks amazing. The staff is so kind, and I love that you can adjust sweetness. Overall lovely little tea lounge in Lubbock, other places around here just can't compare. read more

I got the red panda oolong and it tasted pretty bad. Kind of tasted powdery and way too sweet. I'm not sure if powder is what they use and I'm no expert, but it just didn't taste right. I only gave 3 stars because I don't think it's horrible for the location. I would never come back for it though. read more

I really love this place and especially love the Taro Boba Tea! The cute little pictures of pandas and cats on the wall are really cool as well. read more

I can't get enough of this place!! The coconut cream blasTEA is my favorite the people that work there are always nice and welcoming. My only hang up is they have a small size, but you have to either pay $1 extra to get a regular split into 2 small cups or just order a regular size and call it a day. Other than that, I love it. read more

I went here maybe three times in 2022 and let me tell u I had the experience of a lifetime here. The girls who work here are so friendly and I truly am so thankful that they are very helpful and social. This girl named Izabela was such a nice cashier and she really helped me with my orders a lot and socializing with her is just so fun. These girls will have me back anytime this new year and I'm glad that I can go to such a nice place with some friends who I can make more memories with especially at an aesthetically pleasing environment such as Teapioca Lounge. See u in the future Teapioca!!! read more

As a bubble tea lover; this is my best choice in Lubbock. Great selection and flavor. Customizable sugar level and ice level. Good spot!

Enjoying the flavor options! Yesterday I had a peach smoothie with strawberry bubbles (delicious!) and today I got a vanilla dirty chai with coffee jellies. The coffee jellies have a great coffee flavor (although I've decided I like the bubbles more than the jellies). Excited to try more at this location! read more

I have ordered from here three separate times: almond cream blast, taro cream blast, and the Vietnamese coffee were all good. This is probably the only place in Lubbock that had managed to get the boba pearls the right amount of chewiness. It has always been really sad when I ordered boba tea and have sad soggy boba...that's not the case here! :) All three times I got good boba pearls. The tiny tapioca is also amazing as well read more

This place got me addicted to their Cream BlasTea (a normal milk tea). I like that you can choose the level of sweetness you want and I adore the baby Boba. Super clean, friendly, time efficient place. read more
