Amazing boba tea, the cutest chocolate waffle dessert with little faces on them. Warm and yummy freshly made!! My new favorite spot!

Every since I moved from LA I've been searching for a new spot for GOOD boba. I did a random search and this placed showed up with really good reviews so I tried it out. No joke the boba is so delicious. The drink was amazing!!! Felt Like I never left LA. The shop is so cute with the stuffed animal machines and the huge boba cup drink in the front. I have yet to try the stuffed egg dessert but that's on my mind. The staff is really friendly and that's something I look for. Will be coming back 100/100! read more

Whale Tea - Creme Brulee Brown Sugar Milk/Milk Tea / Brown Sugar Fresh Milk/Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

I've been coming to Whale Tea since the first day they opened & I love that I never once had a negative experience with customer service nor with my drinks. The ambience is bright and cozy. I also love that they always have some kind of promotions, cashbacks with every purchase, & even claw machines to play with while waiting for your drinks. Always recommend people to come here to try their creme brûlée series & smiley egg waffles read more

The cutest place! From decor to the phenomenal drinks! I can't rave about it enough. Ever since I found their instagram I wanted to try it and now I have and I am not disappointed! Instead im thrilled! The service was so kind and helpful, I will definitely be back and I'll tell everyone to come try it! Also I love the amount of jelly options ! read more

Very cute decor! Loved the drinks the oolong tea is very authentic and you can tell they use real tea. Less sweet than most boba places which I enjoy! They use real taro, tastes very authentic. I highly recommend the taro milk creme brûlée tea. Easily my new favorite boba shop in the area! read more

Taste: good, service : not so good. I ordered a thai milk tea, and the smiley egg waffle. Both were very tasty. The problem was when I was given my drink, the employee said my egg waffles would be ready in 5 minutes. 15 minutes later I went up to the counter and asked if my waffles were ready. Again I was told they'd be ready in 5 minutes. Clearly they forgot to start making the waffles 15 minutes prior, because everything is open in this restaurant, and I saw another employee start making the waffles after I asked. It was not busy at all when I went, and it seemed like the employees were just socializing. read more

The girls who worked here were very sweet, but had absolutely no idea how to prepare tea. I asked a question about the difference between two teas on the menu and they couldn't give me an answer, so I just ordered something different. I asked for a tea with oat milk, and they said they couldn't make it, even though oat milk is an option on the menu. Instead of arguing about it, I just ordered a different tea that they said could have oat milk in it. When they gave it to me, it was literally a cup of oat milk...no tea at all!! I told them about it and they apologized but made some sort of nonsensical excuse as to why they didn't include tea (they said I didn't ask for tea..). I said "Why would I ask for a $6 cup of oat milk?" They offered to give me another tea, but the one they gave me was SUPER watered down and once again didn't have oat milk in it. My husband ordered a thai tea and his was weak, somehow, which is odd for thai tea. Hopefully, they've trained their staff better since I went, but considering their tea isn't cheap, I won't be chancing it again... there are too many other great boba places around. read more

Whale Tea is located in the strip mall of Princess Anne Rd & Baxter Rd. On this warm night in August, the place was busy. However, the grapefruit tea was refreshing. Dining area was cheerful and bright. Order through the kiosk was simple but no cash. read more

I can absolutely see why this place is already so well loved. A few people told me that this was there to go place already for tea! I now see exactly why. When I first went into Whale Tea what I loved was the set up. Very welcoming place for a first time person getting into the swing of bubble tea! So bright, clean, and a lot of claw machines and cute decorations that immediately make you want to not just buy from them, but explore the store as a whole! They have the store decorated with a Sanrio/Hello Kitty claw machine, and Kakao/Line friends everywhere, and KAWS, which are all very familiar and fun as I love all of those things lol. I really enjoyed how clean and organized they were. Everything was just so tidy and these days sadly that's hard to find. You go into someone place and it's just a mess top to bottom. I love that they care enough to keep it clean constantly. (I say constantly because during my visit I saw people come out to check on things. Made me even more comfortable!). You can literally smell everything brewing fresh, and the warm smell of egg waffle wafting in the air! Now the egg waffles, baby let me get down to it. You NEEED them, you don't just want them...you NEED them. I haven't had these since I was back home in NYC walking through Chinatown. It gave me memories of being back in school and walking to the waffle carts after school for hot waffles! These are freshly made so if you're looking to rush out, you need to order another day when you can be patient!!! (Yes, you! As they are working at a fast and consistent pace for FRESH waffles). They offer 3 flavors: Cheese, chocolate, and pork floss. They were out of pork floss, and I mean I get why they're utterly amazing. I got the cheese, but that's what I planned on getting regardless so I was happy they hadn't sold out yet. When they came out, the first thing that hits you is that fresh sweet warm smell of waffle. I literally kept smelling them, because it's a scene that brings back so many memories for me. Biting into them, they're so soft and you get that cheesy salt taste! I really love a sweet and salty combo so it's always a party in every bite for me lol. I went with the lychee fruit tea which was 50 percent for sugar and 50 for ice. Next time I'll do 75 percent ice cause I'm an ice queen , but honestly if you're someone who complains about that "I want more drink" thing then 50 percent is for you! Either way I think you get more than enough. Not too sweet, tasted so fresh and smooth, I also love the little fresh bites of lychee cause I'm a fiend for it. My boyfriend got the blue crystal, and was surprised by how much he loved it. A milky smooth coconut taste with a very delicious jelly that works perfectly with every sip of the coconut drink. Very tropical in a Milky Way like pina colada vibes but ten times more subtle. The more he had the more he loved it, it's one of those drinks you sip nice and slow to enjoy truly how much flavor depth it has! Also, they have display stands you can put your blue crystal drink on and it lights up, yeah you heard me...DISPLAY STANDS CAUSE THAT DRINK IS A STAR! SHES A SHOW STOPPER AND YOU WILL GIVE HER THAT ATTENTION LOL. I just love it so much, and can see this is a real addition to a community bubble tea wise. With so many shops opening up, it's good to stand out in as many ways as possible and this place does it well from flavor, to options, to overall vibe they're very creative. I hope they continue to flourish this way, and doing what they're doing cause I love it! read more

It's always a very aesthetically pleasing place to be in and colorful! read more

Ordering was very convenient with their touch screens up front. Our crème brûlée drinks were delicious and perfectly sweetened with 50% sugar. We even saw them torch the top of our drinks! The egg waffles were so yummy and presented adorably in a little certain. I do wish they had more seating but they had cute claw machines we could play with while we waited for our order. Definitely coming back! read more

The best boba we've found in the area. They use real fruit, it's never overly sweet, and they have flavors you won't find anywhere else. You can tell that it's high quality and it's always made fresh (as are the adorable and delicious little egg waffles). The vibe in the store is adorable and upbeat, which we love. The staff is always kind and warm, not to mention super speedy with the service. Like I said, best boba in the area. Definitely give it a try if you haven't already. (my personal fav is the Thai tea and my boyfriend's fav is the watermelon milk tea) read more

In the mood for a sweet treat, this little place has so many variations of tea, Boba, fruit drinks. The person in front of us took their time making a choice and the server made it so easy to pick a couple of drink flavors, adjust level of sugar and add Boba. Ordered an oreo milk tea, a blue whale drink and a brown sugar milk tea. Even at 70% sugar. The cookies and cream drink was super creamy, I thought my son was drinking a milkshake. The blue drink was a light, refreshing gelatin / coconut milk thirstquencher. The brown sugar Boba with 50% sugar was just the right amount of sweetness. Another plus was the cute decor. read more

I had the strawberry milk with boba. It was good the pearls were just too soft in my opinion and needed more flavor.

New bubble tea franchise from NY. A lot of creative drinks and so far we enjoyed all drinks we ordered. We ordered crème brûlée taro milk tea, whale tea and strawberry slush. You can order at the kiosk and control your ice and sweetness level. They give you 30% off for grand opening now. We will definitely be back to try other drinks read more

I was visiting from out of state. A lot of options and fast service. Also, the decor was very cute and inviting. Sadly, I did not enjoy my drink at all. Not much flavor and not enough sweet. Possibly will give it another try when I come back since there are so many good reviews. Maybe I just didn't order the right thing? Mango bubble tea is my favorite though. read more

Went to grab dessert. Dessert took 15 minutes to receive even though there was only 1 person In front of us. Finally receive the dessert and discover they gave us the wrong one. Had to come back and re order which took us another 20 minutes. Staff didn't accommodate for the waste of time. Also before we left the employee told us to wait while she verified our food was correct and told us it was cheese eggs. The customers ahead got to keep our eggs and got new ones for their order but we didn't get to keep the ones we got at first and just left with the eggs we ordered. It didn't make sense that the other customers get to keep the eggs they didn't order but we didn't. The eggs tasted great though. read more

Limited menu but everything tastes great. I love the Watermelon Milk with chia and boba. I have been twice and the first time I got these little round waffly tasting things that look like eggs with cute faces. The first one was cheese. The cheese surprised me. I thought it would be sweet like cream cheese but it is more like a mozzarella ... but not quite savory either. I did like it. Next time I went I tried mango filling... really good. I really enjoyed everything. read more
