My son was craving boba tea, so we decided to try Milk N Tea, a cute little shop in Parma that's…read moreactually been around since 2002 (how did we not know about it sooner?!). From the moment we walked in, we loved the cozy, welcoming vibe. There's plenty of seating, and they even have games you can play while you sit and enjoy your drinks and treats, which makes it such a fun, relaxed spot to hang out, especially with kids or friends. The service was friendly and patient while we looked over the menu. We ordered the Cookies & Cream Bubble Waffle with caramel dipping sauce. The Mulberry Fruit Tea with dragon fruit popping beads and Red Guava Fruit Tea with strawberry popping beads Everything was delicious! The bubble waffle was warm, soft, and perfectly sweet and the caramel sauce took it over the top. Both fruit teas were super refreshing, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The popping beads added such a fun burst of flavor with every sip. We'll definitely be back. If you're in Parma and looking for a cozy spot for boba and a sweet treat, this is such a great local find!

My boyfriend and I came here on a Tuesday afternoon and were able to find street parking easily. The decor of the shop is cute, and ordering at the kiosk was simple; they have a pretty extensive menu so, whatever type of drink you're looking for, they probably have it! We got the coconut matcha and a mango matcha milk, both of which came out pretty quickly. I was unfortunately a little disappointed with the color of the matcha when our drinks came out; it was a very pale green, and didn't taste like they used high quality matcha powder to make our drinks. My boyfriend was also disappointed by the coconut matcha, which didn't taste as good as he expected. I thought my mango matcha, on the other hand, was delicious! The mango flavor was strong and sweet, but not overly so, and I enjoyed my drink! Overall, we'd definitely come back, but probably try different drinks since it seems like this shop doesn't specialize in matcha.

We stopped into Hey Sweeties in Parma this afternoon and had a great experience…read more My son ordered the Banana Slush Drink, which was almost like a banana smoothie. He loves anything banana, so this was a big hit for him. I ordered the Peach Jasmine Tea with peach popping boba, and it was incredibly flavorful and refreshing, perfect balance of tea and fruit. We also decided to share one of their specialties, the banana split, and it was amazing. I'm not usually a big fan of the traditional strawberry ice cream that comes in most banana splits, so I was really intrigued by their version with chocolate, vanilla, and mango pineapple ice cream. It had sliced bananas on each side and was topped with fresh mango, pineapple, and strawberries, crushed Oreos, and chocolate syrup. The mango pineapple ice cream really gave it a unique twist and took the whole dessert to the next level. It might honestly be the best banana split I've had. The service was very friendly, and the worker was extremely helpful answering our questions since we weren't sure what to order. The décor is simple, clean, and cozy, which made it a nice place to sit and enjoy our treats. The presentation was very nice as well. We were served our drinks and banana split on a gold tray. We're already looking forward to coming back to try some of their other desserts!

PROS: Exceptional black-tea flavor, consistently fresh and perfectly textured boba, extensive…read morecustomization, a large drink menu, quick counter service, easy online ordering, clean surroundings, and tempting pastries and desserts. CONS: I have none! BOTTOM LINE: LuCha serves the best authentic-style brown sugar milk tea I have found anywhere in this region, and I will happily drive more than an hour for it. I should begin with a confession: I am extremely particular about bubble tea. Bubble tea originated in Taiwan, and while the modern universe of boba includes practically every tea, fruit, milk, foam, syrup, and topping imaginable, I have a strong preference for traditional-style milk tea with a bold black-tea foundation. LuCha itself is a Taiwanese tea brand founded around handcrafted drinks, fresh ingredients, and tea culture, and that attention to the tea itself is exactly what keeps bringing me back. My order is always the Ancient Brown Sugar Milk Tea, and after roughly twenty visits, I have barely considered ordering anything else. The tea is robust enough to remain unmistakably tea rather than tasting like sweetened milk. The brown sugar adds warmth and depth without completely swallowing the black-tea flavor. It is rich, smooth, balanced, and, for my palate, very close to perfection. Then there are the boba themselves. Good tapioca pearls should not be rubbery, hard in the center, excessively soft, or dissolving into starch. LuCha consistently lands in that narrow little kingdom between tender and pleasantly chewy. The pearls are served warm, sometimes almost hot, inside the chilled milk tea. That temperature contrast is one of my favorite parts of the drink because it immediately tells me the boba were freshly prepared. Old tapioca pearls have a particular texture and flavor, and once you have encountered them, your mouth remembers. In all my visits, I have never received stale or day-old-tasting boba here. They are consistently soft, warm, fresh, and almost melt as you chew them. That first sip still makes me close my eyes for a moment. I realize this is dramatic but the heart wants what the heart wants. Although I remain fiercely loyal to one drink, the menu is broad. LuCha offers fresh fruit teas, sparkling fruit drinks, tea slushes, cheese-foam teas, fresh-milk drinks, smoothies, coffee, pure brewed teas, and numerous toppings. Depending on the drink, guests can customize elements such as sweetness, ice level, milk choice, pearls, popping boba, crystal pearls, and cheese foam. There is definitely something for everyone. LuCha also carries a rotating selection of breads, cakes, and small desserts. I have tried several, and they have all been enjoyable. The menu also includes croffles, a croissant-waffle hybrid, with versions such as strawberry and Lotus Biscoff. The one I tried was crisp, sweet, and a very good companion to the tea. Both the Aurora and Stow locations offer online ordering, and the process is easy. LuCha is primarily counter service, and even when there has been a steady stream of customers, I have rarely waited very long. The Aurora location is always clean and has a bright, playful little seating area where you can relax with your drink. The décor, bear breads, plush toys, and customer dog-photo display give it personality without making it feel cluttered. I have tried a great deal of bubble tea throughout Northeast Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, New York and beyond. Many shops produce something enjoyable, but very few make a milk tea that tastes sufficiently of actual tea, and fewer still prepare tapioca pearls this consistently well. LuCha does both. I genuinely drive more than an hour for the Ancient Brown Sugar Milk Tea, and I have done it repeatedly. For anyone who loves authentic-style milk tea with a strong tea base and freshly prepared boba, LuCha should be at the top of the list. Five deeply caffeinated stars.

Vibes: cool, goth/emo vibes and is a very small space that can seat/stand maybe 6-10 people at a time. Small business, with one worker taking orders and making the drinks to order. It does smell like hookah inside, just an observation. Free parking lot in front. Service: polite guy who's outfit and vibes fit the aesthetic of the place. Boba: The Earl Gray tea was just right, not too sweet. There is no extra charge to add boba like most boba places nowadays - so these drinks are very reasonably priced ($5 small; $6.50 large). The tapioca pearls were a little on the undercooked side, and were not sweet. I did like that there are many options for popping boba flavors. Overall, a small business, vibes were good, flavorful tea, but the tapioca was a little underboiled/soaked.

I have never been to say a Starbucks or Pulp (who both use blenders) tell me that cannot serve me a drink on their menu close to closing time?! Mind you there is NO signage that they are no longer serving certain items at certain times. Ridiculous way to run a business that is hardly ever busy.
