They tried to rush and hurry me out when there were no other customers, and hovering over me while I was signing after paying to see how much I'd tip, then got annoyed when I didn't tip because it was horrible. It didn't taste good either.

Me and my sister went here and we both ordered our drinks with tapioca pearls. To our surprise…read morethere is only enough tapioca pearls for one drink. I find that very annoying since it is a boba place and most people get the tapioca pearls. I just think that they should have extra pearls in case this happens again because it seems unprofessional since it's the most common thing to order. There was residue from drinks on the counters and gross looking stuff in the corners of the walls. But they had good music.

Icy Bubbles in Moline is a great place to grab a boba tea.

The shop is clean and creatively decorated, adding to the experience. I personally didn't love the jellies as an additive, but that's just a matter of taste. It didn't take away from the overall enjoyment of my drink. I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu. Worth checking out.

Everything is always made quickly and accurately every time! The staff are always very professional! I love the lay out and color scheme of both locations. The seating is plenty for the small layout.

I've had a lot of boba in my life, and I would say La Tea definitely leans a little less…read moretraditional compared to more authentic spots. That said, there's one drink here that truly pops off -- and it's what keeps me coming back. The Uji Matcha Latte with tapioca and red bean (half sugar) is my go-to order, and it's delicious. Perfect balance of earthy matcha, chewy boba, and just the right amount of sweetness from the red bean. Honestly, I like it even better than some matcha drinks I've had in Seattle! I think that drink is better than the random drinks I've tried at Teamo which is next door. The last time I stopped by, we were heading out on a road trip, and I ordered a small -- but heads up, the bottle is a teddy bear shape, which while super cute, isn't the most convenient if you're trying to fit it in a car cupholder. Still tasty though! Overall, I'd rate their boba quality around 3 stars -- but that matcha drink alone is a solid 5 stars in my book. Plenty of seating inside (the space is surprisingly big) and a few games at the front if you're hanging out for a bit. Tip: Stick to the matcha drinks if you're a fan -- they do them really well here!

La Tea and Teamo are right next to each other. I wanted to go to Teamo, but due to the Pride…read moreFestival, the line was much longer at Teamo. Being an impatient gremlin, I went to La Tea instead. I love Jasmine Milk Tea; that is my go to everywhere I go. I'm always trying to find the next best Jasmine Milk Tea place for my tastes. Let me tell you, this place is not it. There was a reason that Teamo's line was much longer then La Tea. My tea did not taste like Jasmine at all. I was with my best friend and her mom. This was her mom's first boba experience, so she thought it was great. My bestie doesn't go out of her way to drink boba or milk tea, so she thought it was fine too. Basically, if you're a noob when it comes to milk tea, it'll taste good to you.

The vibe of the hive is great…read more Emily and I decided to get out of town for a day and picked Galesburg to roam around and explore. I let her pick the coffeehouse we visit and that's how we ended up at The Beanhive. Upon walking in, I knew we picked a great place. The Beanhive has the vibes of grandma's house. Everything feels vintage, antiqued, and from the 1970s. The decor is definitely eclectic and feels like they raided said grandmas' house for all their furniture. All of that is a positive in my book. Emily ordered a caramel latte and I got my usual iced americano and we split a warmed up cinnamon roll for breakfast. It didn't take too long for our drinks and roll to come out. The americano was as dark as the night sky and that was a good sign. I took a sip and was instantly in heaven. This was, without a doubt, the best americano I've ever had. Emily was smitten with her caramel latte and we both loved the cinnamon roll. We stuck around a bit longer than intended because we both just loved the vibe of the place and the baristas make us feel really welcomed. If I lived in Galesburg, this would be the only coffeehouse I would visit. Sidenote: They do have stickers, pins, shirts and other merch if you are looking for that kind of stuff. We both got some stickers and pins while Emily also grabbed a nice looking long sleeve tye-dye shirt. Their merch has a Jimi Hendrix vibe to it, which fits with the vibe of the place.
