    It is a casual boba place with a very fun interior. There are plenty of couches and books for you to relax and enjoy. Ordering was simple, with three kiosks; all the menu items had pictures and various add-ins. I ordered the vanilla latte macaroon; it was slightly frozen, but once it sat in the car on my way home, I could try it; it was very delicious. It had a tasty coffee-expresso-like flavor with a good blend of vanilla. The two lemonades were good also; I ordered a concentrated passion fruit with strawberry boba and a freshly squeezed passion fruit lemonade. Service was quick, and everything came out in a few minutes.

    TLDR: Overpriced, tea just wasn't good…read more I tried this place around a year ago because it had amazing reviews, but my drink was so terrible that I couldn't finish it. It had an awful metallic taste, which I think came from the lychee jelly (lychee is not supposed to taste like that). I drink a ton of boba, and have never had something so bad I couldn't finish it before. I came back today to try it again, since the reviews of this place are continuously amazing, and mine is the only bad review. The toppings were the worst part. The tapioca pearls had firm and dry cores (I think it was maybe undercooked), which really brought the drink down. The jelly was not good, and I wouldn't even call it "jelly" personally. It was essentially sugar and flavor pellets with a processed and unpleasant tangy aftertaste. The tea wasn't great either. I sampled their jasmine tea since I really like jasmine, but I wasn't a fan, and I can make better with cheap grocery store tea. I tried their oolong tea, which was decent, but the flavor felt pretty diluted unfortunately. I also tried the Hokkaido tea, which was very sweet, and didn't taste quite like Hokkaido tea in my opinion. Normally I don't mind when boba is sweet, but I feel this place is pushing it too much. I ended up getting a little bit of the Hokkaido tea, and about 5x that amount of the oolong tea (which was fully unsweetened), and it was definitely sweet enough for me. There's a drink I sometimes get when I'm at college called "crème brûlée ube brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba". I personally prefer to call it "diabetes in a cup". I think the sweetness of that drink would be comparable to a full cup of the Hokkaido tea. Additionally, $8.46 is an absurd price to pay for this. I can get better boba for $6 down the street, or much better boba for $6-8 about 15 minutes away. If I want genuinely good boba, there's some shops in Rockville that I happily pay $8 a cup for, and they blow this place out of the water. This would be 3 star tea if it was $6. The staff member was nice, and the building itself was cute. The staff member recommended the Hokkaido tea with a pump of brown sugar syrup. This is why I tried the Hokkaido tea, but I didn't opt for the brown sugar pump since I'm not a huge fan of brown sugar boba (I prefer fruit tea and more eastern new-style tea). The "build your own tea" is a fine gimmick, but I don't want to pay $8 for it, especially when the toppings you can add are low quality. Additionally, some places have enough customization on their menu that you can essentially build your own tea anyways.

    Sweet Bamboo Boba is hands down the best place I've ever found for bubble tea…read more You can make your own drink exactly how you want it, with your own flavors, combinations, and recipes. They have standard options too, but the fun part is building your own creation. They have bubbles, all kinds of jellies, teas, syrups, toppings, and so many ways to customize it. It reminds me of one of those self-serve frozen yogurt places, but for bubble tea. My go-to drink is strawberry jelly and lychee jelly on the bottom, then I fill the cup about two thirds of the way with ice, add coconut tea up to the top of the ice, and finish it with butterfly pea flower on top. It has no caffeine, it looks beautiful, and it tastes amazing. Sweet Bamboo Boba is officially one of my favorite spots. Sweet Bamboo Boba is hands down the best place I've ever found for bubble tea.

    Deliciousness - 5/5 Happiness - 4.5/5…read more This is a nicely hidden dessert and coffee gem tucked into this large Woodbridge shopping center. Step inside and you'll see it's quite Gram-able (or is it "Insta-tastic"). In other words, it's gorgeously decorated. They have a wide array of sweet treats, almost all of them oversized. My kids have enjoyed their "dirt" sundaes and their ice cream heaped upon belgian waffles. Other non-ice cream treats include tiramisu and cakes imported from Italy, mochi balls, coffee drinks, smoothies, and yes Harry Potter geeks - even some Butterbeer. The service is always OK. They are patient as you cut through the giant menu, and they always make things delicious! But they aren't exactly outgoing either. I highly recommend Miki. It tastes great, and there's something for everyone.

    Cafe Miki is a cute little boba tea shop. Their decor choice is very tropical-like and sorta…read morebeach-y to me. When I stopped by, it was empty, so my wait wasn't very long. They have several tables with chairs and would be good for groups or casual hang-outs. Their menu is quite diverse with a lot of options for fruit teas, milk teas, classic teas and ice cream flavors. For this particular visit, I tried a pineapple green tea. It wasn't the best, but it wasn't terrible either. It was refreshing enough. They might be worth a try for others. I wouldn't mind going back to try other items on their menu.
