Quality Food, Warm Service, and Calm Ambience Tiger Sugar in Mesa is one of the rare boba shops that truly solves a common problem, consistency and care. So many places rush drinks or rely on sugary fillers, but Tiger Sugar stands out because every cup tastes intentional, fragrant brown sugar, balanced sweetness, and tea that feels hand crafted instead of assembly line. The food and drinks are made with real attention. You can smell the aroma the moment they seal the cup. The brown sugar milk tea is smooth, the pearls are smaller and softer, and the organic milk gives everything a cleaner flavor that doesn't leave you feeling heavy afterward. The service is always calm, organized, and attentive. Staff listen to your order, move with purpose, and make you feel like the details matter. The ambience is peaceful and clean, even when the shop is busy. It feels like a cultural community space, families, students, and boba fans all enjoying the moment without chaos or noise. Their coffee is another pleasant surprise, rich, gentle on the heart, and brewed with the same cultural intention that makes Tiger Sugar famous. It is perfect if you want something warm and comforting that is not overly sweet. If you want a place where quality food, thoughtful service, and authentic ambience come together, Tiger Sugar is an easy recommendation. Consistent, aromatic, and made with genuine care every time. read more

Tiger sugar was good, I did come here in hopes of a better Boba tea then I had previously ordered an hour ago from somewhere else. And as fun as the pictures are and is helpful as the girl was, the Matcha, Boba tea just wasn't it. I will be coming back to this location though to try something new.. They have a very unique pallet of options from chocolate chips and creams with all your traditional teas. read more

They have seats now! Service is fast and the drinks are a solid option for brown sugar boba. Always clean and smells nice. read more

Tiger Sugar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Got with lactose free milk and I think this just ruin all bobas drinks for me. It is not worth it at this point as I'm paying 8 for sugar and milk. The matcha was gross and watered down. I make better matcha at home with my premium matcha ... I will not be buying any boba drinks any longer. This was not good at all and the matcha tasted grainy read more

I frequent this place often. The drinks stand out with brown sugar that is fragrant and aromatic. Small sizes but the boba drink is decadent! I prefer the original brown sugar milk tea. The boba is smaller than average, with even smaller pearls. It makes for a fun texture. The drink is creamy and milky. read more

Tiger Sugar is one of my favorite bubble tea spots -- not just because it tastes amazing, but because they use organic milk, which really sets them apart. You can taste the quality in every sip. The drinks are rich and flavorful without being overly sweet, and they actually feel light and healthy, which is rare for boba! I had the Black Sugar Boba Milk with Cream Mousse -- perfectly balanced, creamy, and refreshing. The staff were friendly and efficient, and my order came out quickly even though it was busy. The shop itself is clean, modern, and cozy, making it a nice little spot to stop by for a treat. Highly recommend for anyone who wants great flavor, better ingredients, and a smooth experience all around! read more

Tiger Sugar - 1. Black Sugar Boba and Pearl Milk with Cream Mousse - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Everything is so good!!!!!!!!! The Strawberry Mochi was delectable, while the Strawberry Matcha was delicious.

Waited 27 minutes for a black sugar milk tea and it wasn't even good. Super unfortunate as I used to really like this place.

Hmmm unfortunately nothing to write home about. A pretty standard boba shop with mediocre tea and mediocre boba.... note that there is also no place to sit inside so it's a grab and go kind of place. If this was ten years ago I'd say this place is okay, but with how competitive boba shop is today there are just better options out there (and close by). read more

Tiger Sugar - T4 .Black Tea with Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

We came on their grand opening last year and a bunch of times since then. This place has been busy and sometimes it's not as busy. I ordered the Black Sugar Boba Pearl Milk with cream mousse. That was my go to drink here and it was similar to other Tiger Sugar locations I've been to in the past. The boba was chewy and the drink was good. If you needed a recommendation then that will be it since it's one of their best selling drinks. Good place for boba and I'll be back. read more

Tiger Sugar - Black Sugar Boba and Pearl Milk with Cream Mousse - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Terribly rude employees and lackluster drinks. If you're anywhere near this place, do yourself a favor and don't come here -- your money's better spent at TeaSnow or Tastea down the street. 0/10 read more

Honestly, if it wasn't for the service, I would rate this much lower part of my low rating is I just I didn't like the item. I typically like Boba, but I am picky. My favorite is the brown sugar. I had a meeting nearby and I needed to kill some time. I saw some great reviews so I thought I'd try this place plus some of the pictures looked really good. I did get their brown sugar Boba, but they had many different varieties. I don't remember which one I picked. I was excited to try it, but the minute I started tasting it I just could not continue. I'm assuming their Boba is made differently. I don't know if it's like a red bean or something and that sense but I did not like it. The rest of the drink just did not give me brown sugar vibes. Honestly, I probably should've done better research. Not sure if I will come back until I look more closely after their menu and how they make their Boba and other drinks. I will say the cashier was very friendly. read more

Tiger Sugar - Brown 2. Black Sugar Boba, Pearl , Tiger Jelly Milk with Cream Mousse I think That is what I ordered - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Extreme disappointment. If you want a glass of milk for $8 go for it. We had questions about the menu and the staff looked at us like it was a chore to answer our questions. Won't be back. I'll go to my normal place in Mekong market if I want boba. read more

I don't have boba tea too often, mostly because I end up being disappointed with most places. I don't want a syrupy sugar bomb and that's what the majority of boba is to me. Today I was happy with this place so that was a nice treat. Pros: - the staff were friendly and answered my questions about what different options taste like and what's in it. - I like that their menu isn't too large. I get overwhelmed with the choices at many boba places. I would rather have less options that taste really good. - we tried one of their most popular options and I wanted some coffee so went with #1Brave as a Tiger and #4 Tiger Meets Coffee. - I always order half sweet at boba tea places due to how crazy sweet the drink usually is. I could have gone even less sweet here, but it was still tasting good. Cons: - the 2 drinks I tried were fairly similar, I wish I had gone with my gut and ordered the matcha #8 as one of the drinks instead. Next time! read more

Delicious... Brown Sugar Caramel Simply fantastic thrirling flavors with the fusion of a caramel crisp bite the sweetened molasses/honey flavor that's ever so sweet and delicate at the same time. You can definitely tell the difference here! I'm so excited for the first Arizona Tiger Sugar to open! I've been a huge fan for years of the other thriving locations across the US. They are the creators and the original OG's! Boba-fy your life with Tiger Sugar Also have a huge variety of other drinks, blends, smoothies, and delicious beverages. I also prefer the taro blend! read more

Q: What do you call it when you get mango flavored pearls and original tapioca pearls in the same boba? A: Bubble whammy! Tiger Sugar has been one of my favorite places to grab a boba after dim sum in Las Vegas. When they announced that they were opening a location here in AZ, I was ecstatic! I didn't have to wait to head over to Sin City to get this dreamy creamy drink anymore. Now that it's here, I'm beginning to wonder if I had thought it tasted like Heaven-in-a-cup only because I was always in Vegas for rest and relaxation. Everything tastes better while on vacation, right? Came with the homies to Tiger Sugar after brunch on the second day of opening weekend and while we didn't face that crazy line everyone is talking about, it was a bit busy! I got the usual: a signature brown sugar boba milk tea with cream mousse and whoa. It tasted like diabetes in a cup. It was so insanely sweet --- much sweeter than I remembered even. I think I'll stick with their iced teas instead of the milk tea from now on. Nonetheless, still thankful that Tiger Sugar has crash-landed into this wonderful city. Always glad to have more boba shop options! 3.5 stars but I'll round up. read more

Tiger Sugar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

My first experience of Tiger Sugar was actually in Vegas! However, I don't remember much because well...Vegas. So I was super excited to hear that Arizona was getting one! I went about 3 weeks after the Grand Opening around 3pm and there still definitely was a bunch of people coming and going. The inside is pretty small and there's no seating. You order your drink and grab and go. I tried the Signature which is the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea with Cream Mousse. I am lactose intolerant, so I was happy to hear there was a lactose-free version. Only downside is that the lactose free version doesn't come with the Cream Mousse. Still so delicious. I also love that it had normal size boba and mini boba. The boba is SOOO GOOD. So soft and chewy and not the super overcooked boba taste that some boba shops have. Tiger Sugar is definitely going to become one of my regular places for sure. read more

look. My personal favorite that I always pick at every single boba shop, is brown sugar milk tea with boba in it. And let me tell you this. I'm very judgemental when it comes to on whether boba shops make it right or not. This boba shop is a PASS!!! I LOVED IT!! I know it's a classic, but it was DELISH! I LITERALLY GOBBLED THAT SHI UP!! And don't get me STARTED with their service here. The people were so nice! They weren't judgmental or anything like you expect! I would go again for a next visit!! read more

The staff was super nice by giving bottles of cold water and hand fans to the customers in line. After waiting just over an hour, on the grand opening day, we made it to the front of the line. I ordered their signature brown sugar boba, milk + pearl with cream mousse. It seemed like a smaller serving than what I'm used to getting for $5.75. The boba and pearls were nice in texture but I don't know what the cream mousse fuss was about. There was such a tiny amount and little taste, it was almost nonexistent to me. It tasted okay but there are so many other boba places to choose from. I don't know if I'd bother to return. read more

I was super excited that a Tiger Sugar was coming to Mesa, so I was eager to check it out on its grand opening day. Unfortunately, the boba is not worth the hype. I ordered a brown sugar milk tea with boba, and I found that it was not impressive. I didn't like how I was unable to customize the drink (the sugar level I understand not being to customize esp with their signature drinks, but the ice level wasn't unfortunately adjustable). The drink tasted like cereal milk, and the boba was just alright. The drinks that my friends got were respectively too sweet and made incorrectly -- one was a brown sugar lemon tea with 50% sugar but still was way too sweet, and another was an oolong tea with cheese foam but came with milk added. Overall, pretty underwhelming and not something that I would come back for. read more

Tiger Sugar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I liked Tiger Sugar but I'm not going to be coming here again three on different times the baristas just give me straight plain milk with boba. The first time I caught the mistake because my drink wasn't very green for a matcha tea. The second time it was a brown sugar tea but I didn't notice it was just milk because the brown sugar boba changed the color a little so it looked like there was black tea in it. And now this time it's the Taro tea. I didn't notice the plain milk color until I got home. No purple. Doesn't taste like anything but sugary milk. Very disappointed that this has happened more than once and I'm not going to drive 30-40 mins back from my home to just fix it. A waste of money. I don't plan on coming back and sadly cannot recommend anyone ordering teas from here. read more

Tiger Sugar - This is supposed to be the taro, taro pudding, black sugar boba milk tea with mousse but instead I received a cup of plain milk. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

The only reason I am not doing 5 stars is because their customer service is on the dry side. I always try interacting with whomever is tending to me and when I did that here, I ended up feeling so uncomfortable and dumb, I will just come in, order with a straight face and leave next time They do have an amazing selection of drinks. We have been by a handful of times and we have only tried one drink twice (a strawberry one, can't remember the exact name but it's so delicious and refreshing), they are very much on the sweet side but it's a treat we always enjoy. We tried the jumbo boba last time and while it was a fun experience, that has been the one thing I've tried that I never want to taste again. read more

Got Thai tea with boba. The tea was fine, the texture of boba was good, but the boba tasted like how body oder smells. I thought I might be just having a weird issue (I got the tea with soy) so I handed it to my partner, and same issue. It was really gross, and I'm sad about my almost 8$ read more

Got an oolong cheese foam tea for $5.51 and taro milk for $6.50. For the price point it was pretty average to me. The taro milk had sago, taro chunks, and taro pudding. Wish the taro chunks were softer. Taro pudding was also very artificial tasting. Staff was nice though! Wouldn't go out of my way to get it again but if I happen to be in the plaza then sure! read more

Tiger Sugar - Oolong cheese foam tea and taro milk drink - Bubble Tea Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

I am addicted to this place I always get #2 Lg and since they have hello kitty cups now why not!?

I got the Black Sugar Boba Green Tea ($5 large) with 0% sweetness, and I loved it. The boba still provides a little bit of sugar, which it was perfect because I'm trying to decrease my sugar intake but not cut out sugar completely. DF friends - The black and green tea (T6 and T8) are dairy-free. They offer lactose-free milk and soy milk as alternatives. Note they have black sugar black/green tea and black/green tea LATTES (T5 and T7) which are different drinks. I think more drinks are DF, but I didn't want to ask about them one by one lol. As they were making the drinks in the back, they kept asking for confirmation on which drinks needed to be dairy-free. I appreciated them making sure because I'm always afraid people will forget. My friends/family said their AC wasn't working during the first month after opening, but it's working now. Overall, great service and high quality drinks! read more

Today (07/16/2022) was the grand opening and boy was it packed. Waiting outside was somewhat difficult due to the heat; however, the staff did try handing out water to help the heat. My friend and I arrived around 3:30 pm and the wait was around 30 minutes (I could imagine it would be longer when the temperature is cooler). Drinks (4/5): My friend and I both got the Brown Sugar Boba Milk + Pearl with Tiger Jelly + Cream Mousse. In addition, I also decided to try the Brown Sugar Boba Matcha Milk with Cream Mousse. Each drink were approximately around $6-$7 and they only come in one size. One you place you order, the wait time was around 3-4 minutes to get the drink (which isn't bad at all). All of the drinks were very good and delicious. The Brown Sugar Boba Milk + Pearl with Tiger Jelly + Cream Mousse was my favorite! It had a nice flavor (somewhat like a coffee flavor) with nice toppings inside! The only downside (which I can say for both drinks) is the cream mousse. I found that the cream mousse was unessential and did not impact the drink too much since it was so little. The Brown Sugar Boba Matcha Milk with Cream Mousse was also good, but I found the matcha to be quite subtle and needed a bit more. Service (5/5): The service was great! With the weather being so hot, the workers would come out every so often to hand out water bottles to cool off. My friend and I was also indecisive so the cashier tried helping us to narrow down our options. She was very patient and other workers would also provide their opinions which was really nice. Atmosphere (3/5): Overall, the shop was very small and tight. It was very cramped and we were standing very close to the people around us. Decor was very minimal but it was nice! I think having the plush tiger was a really cool addition and noticed that many people took pictures with it. There was also good lightings which makes for really good pictures/selfies if wanted haha. Overall, a good place! Drinks were made with good quality and flavor. The place can feel cramped and even hot so I would recommend going earlier in the morning or during the evening :) read more

I love this boba shop! I always get the tea with cheese moose and it never fails! If you like your drinks on a non sweeter side, I would go down the level of sweetness as sometimes it can be a little too sweet. It's a fairly small shop- there are no tables/chairs inside. The service here is ok- there wasn't any greeting but overall, still proficient read more

Truly disappointed that the drinks weren't great and paid almost $10 for each. The strawberry crush drink had a lot of cubed ice that was filled halfway to the top which made the drink really bland. There were more ice and cream in the strawberry crush than the drink itself. The mango sago was a little bit better but still bland. First time and most likely my last going there as there are better choices around. Also, wished the Hello kitty cup was a reusable plastic cup instead of a paper cup so that I can keep it for a while. read more
