    Dragonfruit x Jackfruit
    Miguel B.

    This boba spot is the real deal! The jackfruit is my personal favorite, but they got tons of good selections and you can combine flavors also. Lucas has the best recommendations so if you're not sure, ask the pro himself! I try something different every time and it never disappoints. Fruit is super fresh and always on point. Hits. the. spot. Every. Time. GO

    I've always enjoyed any boba milk/iced tea I have ordered here! Also their sizes are ginormous or at least the large cups are, but it's great to have more of their delicious drinks. Really easy to find parking quickly outside and go in to order. Doesn't usually take too long to get your order. Just a pleasant experience every time and they offer so many different options on their menu. Great for groups of any size to find something they would like to drink.

    I am picky about my boba places, so I'm not joking when I say this might be the best boba I've had in all of CA. Truly, it really is excellent quality, the service was excellent, and I highly recommend stopping. I love trying new places... But this place makes it make me not want to do that. It makes me just want to keep coming back and trying something new every time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

    Avo/Coco! Seriously quality ingredients

    Parking usually full but there's plenty of parking but may need to walk a bit. No place to eat inside. It's blocked off. Pretty decor, but seating is blocked off and full of boxes. So you order at the counter and he'll give you a buzzer and it'll buzz when yours is ready. Then off you go to enjoy true QUALITY drink. I got a Small Avocado coconut smoothie $8/9 made with with coconut milk $1 and added boba $1. All ingredients are natural and REAL!!! So difficult to find a TRUE avocado smoothie. He will be honest with you if avocado isn't ripe then he'll say sorry chose another type smoothie. This time avocado was ripe and wow!!!! Delicious!!! The piece of avocado on my smoothie was perfect! No wonder the drink was so on point, he seriously keeps quality in check! Thank you! Give your number and get a bday treat. No clue what it will be but I signed up. Can't wait.

    I just love boba and while I was visiting my daughter in Oceanside we decided to try TNL Boba Tea to satisfy my boba cravings and it did not disappoint! First of all the gentleman that served us was so nice and patient in helping us decide what to order. We ultimately ordered a guava yakult smoothie with boba, a winter melon milk tea with soy milk and boba, a winter melon iced tea, no sugar and boba and a purple fruit drink of some kind with boba. Everyone was very happy with our selections and I would definitely return here when I'm visiting in the area. Oh and the boba was perfectly chewy!!!

    Coconut Thai tea, added Coconut milk

    This spot is good for the drinks, but it's an interesting hole in the wall. If you frequent this shopping center, you'll notice this spot on the left corner, but you walk in and find a counter on the left. You can't see the drinks being made and there's no seating. The drink menu was a lot to take in, but i decided to go with a coconut thai tea with boba. We're given a buzzer and have to wait outside. Many people came to the shop while I waited for my drink. I was shocked when I received it! It was gigantic and so special! Lol. It was exciting. It had these noodles in it that I wasn't expecting. I liked it and will probably show up here again.

    Free cup. Thanks Lucas!!

    TNL boba has the best boba in Oceanside. The boba is so fresh here. And they use fresh fruit in their smoothies. Everything is so good. I highly recommend. The service here is 5 stars. Lucas is great!!

    Guava slush with boba
    Sandra M.

    The drink was beautiful and yummy, but the music was SO loud when I walked in, I was immediately overstimulated. I know it's all made with fresh ingredients but it was almost $10 for my drink, which is STEEP for a boba place.

    Blue berry and lychee with boba
    Joel O.

    The options and energy... decent pricing for what you may be used to... love the fresh fruit and even an icecream option. Serious talent!

    Joe M.

    Great spot for boba in the area. They use natural ingredients and not powders. I would go back again if I was in the area.

    Chamoy, strawberry slush
    Maria R.

    Wow!!! Fast and delicious! Very impressed will define one back! Everything was delicious

    Avocado smoothie with flan. Smaller one same just with matcha in it.

    So....this place is VERY interesting. I felt like there are some good to it and some eh not so good. I'm not here to be rude but it's from my own perspective. Take this review however you feel. Place looks like it's run by a couple. Male in the front taking order and female in the back making drinks. Our order was 37 bucks. Likes yikes. For two drinks that's steep. So, you know we except some amazing drinks. Our drinks order was avocado smoothie with flan for both except one has matcha powder in it. Taste was not good at all. Avocado was unripe tasting and one of them was tasteless not sweet just tastes like milk and ices. We waiter outside in the cold for over 15 minutes for it. Sure I get it, it was only one person job. Anyway...we finally got our order and holy smokes that was a mess. They top it to the top with half avocado on top of it. In the picture it's not there because it fell to the floor. Cup was leaking from the extra stuff. Sometimes less is more. Cause our car becomes a sticky mess and smoothie everywhere in the cup holder. *to the owner: quick tip ask if it's okay to be top or not. Cause not everyone wants it piled on top of the cup like that* Many love to this places for trying. But won't be a returning customer.

    Ube smoothie and ube/macha with coconut ice cream

    TNL is such a solid boba spot! The flavor selection is huge, there's honestly something for everyone. Everything tasted super fresh, not overly sweet, and you can really tell they care about quality. The staff was friendly and the vibe was chill, making it a great place to stop by whether you're hanging out or just grabbing a drink to go. Definitely coming back to try more flavors. Highly recommend if you're a boba fan!
