I came here with a friend. She had one of the bubble waffle treats and I got a coconut mango boba . The interior of the shop was cute and the decor was modern and photo worthy. The amount of flavor varieties was a pleasant surprise. I loved that you can mix up to 3 flavors (I believe). I haven't seen a boba shop that offers this for no extra cost. Kudos! I loved my boba overall except that some of the pearls were over cooked. I overlooked this because the taste of the tea itself was so yummy. I didn't eat any of my friends bubble waffle but she said it was good. It looked good too.
A hidden gem, the inside is so much cuter than the outside area. I got the Thai tea with regular boba, for lactose intolerant family they do have non dairy milk (it's oat milk only). The cashier is effective and attentive so it's a place you can pop in and pop out, or stay in and enjoy peace and quiet (there's not a lot of people there when I went.
Decided to stop by YobaHut after eating Dimsum next door. They had a couple great options to choose from. The mango yo tea was yummy, it wasn't overly sweet. The bubble waffle was good, not a fan of sprinkles but the fruity pebbles was a good topping! The place was decent, wasn't the cleanest shop I've visited. There was two gals working- one was super sweet and the other had a 'tood'. It would've been nice to not feel so rushed especially with my sibling and I being the ONLY customer at the time. I understand bad days & not wanting to be at work but tossing things on the counter like you don't care and giving the impression of having people in your business seem like an inconvenience does not make the place welcoming by any means. It almost makes sense why the place always appears dead.
After getting my fill of dim sum at Great Wall, I stopped by YobaHut with a friend for a sweet treat. The inside of the store is bigger than I anticipated (with multiple areas to sit) and there weren't too many people inside (only 3 other clients). And the prices for milk and fruit teas seemed pretty average ($4.99 - $5.99 not including toppings). I opted for a strawberry, passionfruit, and lychee fruit tea but to be honest, it was bitter (I was expecting it to be sweet), but my friends strawberry lychee slushy was sweet! I can't say the service was great either, but it also wasn't terrible. There were two young workers, and they seemed like they didn't really want to be there (and took quite a while preparing our drinks despite the fact that there weren't that many people in the store). Given that my friend (who recommended the shop) has been to this establishment multiple times, I feel like my experience may have been a one off (or so I hope!) NOTE: When you check in on Yelp you're able to get 15% off (but it only applies to milk teas).
Hit up Yobahut for a sweet treat, aka the perfect post lunch or dinner companion. Always check in while ordering for a 15% discount!! I got the lychee fresa slush both times that I've been there because of how much I enjoy it- very refreshing and not too sweet. I recommend pairing it with the lychee popping boba. Aesthetic interior with cuteness, greenery, and a wall for your obligatory Yelp moment.
Made my 2nd visit here on a Saturday around 430pm. At my time of arrival there were no other customers. The staff greeted my children and I promptly and kindly. She was very patient with us as we read through the menu and asked a few questions. The ambiance is quiet and calm. I can't recall if they even had music going. But either way it didn't bother me. The decor is cute and typical of a boba spot. There are a few areas that are instagram worthy as well. I was pleasantly surprised with our drinks. The Thai tea was sweetened just right to my daughter and I's liking. She also noted she liked the honey boba as it wasn't too soft or too chewy. Would def order this again. The passion fruit Green tea again was sweetened just right. The tea was not bitter as is common at a lot of spots. The rainbow jelly texture was perfect and there was a good healthy amount in the drink as well. The banana wasn't bad but def run of the mill. It was $3, which is immensely better then what you'd pay for the same thing at let's say, the state fair. So no real complaints. Look forward to trying this place again. The biggest thing for me was that the drinks were flavorful and not overly sweet, which has become common place in many boba spots.
This is a fun n place with good options to choose from. Only thing I could suggest would be a oat milk option for non dairy drinkers, almond milk is good in most things but not everything and oatmilk has a smoother creamy texture. They have tapioca waffle cones with ice cream and toppings, covered bananas etc And the girls working here are super patient and friendly
Second time back. The tiramisu cake is super tasty and I'm sooo picky about tiramisu. I only bought one slice to share but my inner fatty totally would have eaten more. The popcorn chicken was super crispy. It stayed crispy even after an hour drive and sitting in my car for like 10 minutes (so I guess even after 1hr & 10 min it was still crispy). Yuuum. Don't miss it. The thai tea-so glad I ordered a large. I think it was a large. I literally said, I'll take the biggest one you have. It wasn't too sweet and wasn't a super strong "bitter tea" flavor like I've had before at other places. Overall-super pleased. The workers were just as nice as last time. Go there if you want yummy food, tasty bevs, delicious desserts and cute snaps. Do it for yourself, not just IG.
I ended up at YobaHut after realizing that my usual boba place in Central Phoenix was closed and had an okay experience. It was pretty dead on a Tuesday, but the staff were present and attentive. Unfortunately, a lot of their menu items weren't available: the popcorn chicken, the calamari, as well as a good handful of their drinks were all crossed off on the menu. I ended up getting their sweet potato fries which were average and a strawberry fruit tea with boba. It was disconcertingly red (no fruit, just straight up bright red liquid) and tasted good but in the way that artificial candy tastes good. If you're craving boba after eating at Great Wall next door, this may do the trick but other than that, I wouldn't go out of my way to come here.
After having a full dim sum spread next door I of course still had room for dessert. This place definitely meets the mark for your boba shop but also seems to offer a variety of packaged asian snacks, frozen yogurt, bubble waffles, cheese cakes, and macarons. There are plenty of seats to come in with your friends to play games or pop some headphones in to study. We had a small accident with the cup cracking but was quickly resolved. The pom pom peach was quite refreshing and we had it with what tasted like mochi and actual pomegranate.
It's such a cute hole in the wall place! We frequently visit the Asian market in the area and we decided to stop by one night to check it out. And we were surprised by this place! The employee working was really sweet and took her time to explain to us certain items. I should also note that our first visit we were the only ones there. We got their bubble waffle ice cream and it was AMAZING! Their popcorn chicken is also really good! Basically everything we order was really good! Now we came back again on a weekend. It took an hour to get our order. There was only one employee working, which is crazy for the amount or people coming in! Anyways she was more worried about making people's drinks instead of our bubble waffle ice creams and banana pops. This visit alone made us second guess this place. We will definitely come back again and NOT on a weekend to avoid that crazy mess.
There is a new owner, I haven't been in a couple years. It is a whole new staff and a new look. I really like it! Very chill vibe, I could get some work done here while enjoying a treat. I got the Thai Tea which was freshly brewed and you could taste it! Some places you can tell they use the can because it is sickeningly sweet. But that was not the case here. The balance of flavor was perfection. Don't sleep on this spot! Seriously a hidden gem by GCU. read more
a hidden gem! they have a variety of food and it was good, they will also made it fresh. it's not sweet, i usually don't prefer brown sugar cause it's really sweet for me but their brown sugar was good, just a two or three was good for me. the boba was chewy as i prefer. they have board games and stuff but some of the things are missing. when you order a boba it will come out really fast, the food will take a while. Ambiance is really amazing and cute they have a dining area that could accommodate groups like 10-15 people. will definitely come back. read more

Popped in to get something to wake me up for the day and went with a Vietnamese Milk Coffee with boba and it was a home run! The owner was nice and helped me with choosing a drink that would meet my liking. Would highly recommend! read more

Can't say anything about the drinks, but the waffles were great. Friend and I got one each and the waffles stayed crunchy even with the melting ice cream on top. Wish they didn't rush us out though. It was still 30 minutes before closing. read more

Neat place for some cheaper boba though they have smaller cup sizes and they have a more chewy honey boba texture. My favorite part was the Taro milk tea flavor was perfect and not too sweet. They did have a 20 minute wait for the honey boba but they hade a nice sitting area, so that was a nice waiting. read more

Jabba the Hutt would probably drink YobaHut while eating Pizza Hut. Monster butt. Hee hee! Anyways, so we strolled on in after dining at Great Wall. We had heard that a boba place was nearby so we decided to give YobaHut a try. A Lychee Fresa, Pom Pom Peach, Midnight Blue, and a Vietnamese coffee were ordered and all was sampled. My thoughts? They were okay... I had ordered the Lychee Fresa with crystal boba for myself. Holy cow, they used so much syrup that I had to wait for my ice to dilute the drink. I enjoyed the strawberry chunks in it though. The Pom Pom Peach was more tart than I expected. As for the gorgeous Midnight Blue drink that my brother got, it was okay. It tasted like lavender and lychee which was an okay flavor combination. It was also garnished with a lime slice. It's definitely a more Instagram worthy drink. As for the Vietnamese coffee, that was a huge let down. I was expecting a rich robust coffee taste and all I got was a watery bean juice. And where was that condensed milk that coats your mouth? Dat mouthfeel, yo! I honestly don't see myself stopping in again even if I just got done eating at Great Wall next door. Life is too short to settle for mediocre boba! The price point was fair though and they do offer the Five Star loyalty rewards. They also have games to play and a lot of desserts for you to buy. read more

Hi Joyce,…
For all of us that have been quarantined it's so rewarding to go try new things and help our local business . We went just for the bubble waffle and it didn't disappoint The waffle by itself it taste so good without even toppings they are made in and instant and the people that work there make us feel welcome and explain different flavors in the menu read more

A really fun date spot and place to hangout on a evening. Their egg bubble waffles are not to be missed! Only wished they opened later, especially on weekends, but for the area it feels standard. read more
Imagine my excitement as I found out this new place opened up next door to Great Wall. I had to check it out ASAP! After my semi-regular dim sum brunch with my parents and kids, I headed over here for something sweet to finish off my lovely meal. There was no one in line and was able to place my order quickly. The server was very nice and answered my questions about some of their uncommon milk tea flavors to my satisfaction. I ended up ordering their Okinawa milk tea with boba. This drink is described as a standard milk tea sweetened with brown sugar. It is quite delicious! It is sweet and has a nutty flavor that I found to be really enjoyable. The boba was soft and cooked like it should be. This can be a neat place to meet up after class at GCU or dessert after dim sum at Great Wall. I'll be making regular visits here after dim sum with my family for sure! read more

Went with the Roasted Brown Sugar Milk Tea and it was delish. The boba was not out favorite of all the stores we've tried. I would definitely go back and try their other milk teas, especially if I'm picking up food at Great Wall restaurant. read more

Milk tea had a good flavor, the flavored tea had good flavors too. But the boba was gross. Like mush in a cup. Ruined the whole experience. read more

The place is a little hidden but definitely worth checking out. The bubble waffle cones with ice cream were pretty tasty. I also had a Thai tea that was also pretty good. The place was pretty clean and they had a good amount of box games to play if you go with friends. read more
After having lunch a few doors down, I decided to check this place out with some friends for something sweet. (They had an advertisement in front of where I had lunch, otherwise I never would have know it was there.) The place is really nice and set up well. There is a yogurt station with all the self serve fixings you could possibly want. You can also order off the menu which I did. There is a variety of milk teas and ice cream options. We ordered a couple of different things to give it a try. The yogurt, excellent and as I mentioned, a fantastic selection of toppings. The bubble waffle, it was A-OK. We ordered two different ones which were both good, but they could only make one at a time and it took a while. The boba milk teas were decent. There seemed to be more sugar than anything and less of that good milk tea flavor. All in all, I would return. It is a great place for the college crowd to hang out (GCU right around the corner). Many tables to study or just relax. Enjoy! read more
I don't know how can this place gets more than 3 stars? My bf and I been debating about trying this place out or not but finally I decided to give it a shot. We came in, we looked at the menu and I saw something interesting, I asked the staff and she said it's Taro milk tea (the picture doesn't show like a regular purple Taro milk tea, that's why I thought there's something special about their Taro milk tea) so I ordered that. And my bf ordered the Midnight Blue, and then I was craving Lychee so I ordered their Lychee smoothie, too. So, usually when you order the drink at other boba places, they will ask you "would you like regular or large cup?" Here? She just grabbed the large cup without even asking! Since we were thirsty so I just let it slide but for the Lychee smoothie, I asked for the regular cup. But that's kinda rude though that she didn't ask, I'm not sure if she can't speak English or what but she still needs to ask first... We sat down for a few minutes and when the drinks came to us. I was like... Wow? These drinks don't look like the picture at all? My Taro milk tea wasn't even purple? Well shit I can careless about the color. But this is THE WORST, I repeat, THE WORST Taro milk tea I've ever had! It's watery as hell, it's like they just mixed the Taro powder with water. Oh my God it was so awful. The Midnight Blue that my bf ordered, I tried it out and it's basically just Lychee with syrup.... I can't even... The Lychee smoothie is probably the drink I could actually drink and to be honest with you all, the boba wasn't bad but what's the point if the drink itself is so bad, how are you supposed to enjoy the boba anymore? I hate to leave a negative review, I've always wanted to give a good review but I can't with this one. And I don't think I will come back here again eventho I am in the area, that's how bad it is for me. read more

One night after dinner my sister and her husband and I decided to stop by here to get some drinks. We were thirsty from all that sodium from dinner. The place was very clean, organised, well kept and well decorated. It looked pretty cool and simple. Excellent design indeed. The staff was friendly and kind. The bathroom was pretty clean and well kept. We ordered a Vietnamese Coffee, which was reported to be too watered down and not very strong, sister husband ordered the Pom Pom Peach drink, I ordered the Midnight Blue and my sister ordered the Lychee Fresa with crystal boba. I tasted a little bit of everyone's and it was pretty okay. The drinks look good for pictures but the quality could be a little better. Overall a good experience. Don't see why I wouldn't come back. read more

Ice cream is ice cream, but the bubble waffles were average, and I have definitely had better around the tempe/chandler area. The waffles were a little cold on the inside, and it just tasted like pancake mix. The place looked pretty nice though. We were the only ones in the store, but it took them at least 15 minutes to get us our order. read more

We set out to find a bubble waffle dessert place that was actually in Phoenix, we found YobaHut and ordered the Choco Lover Waffle. We were the only people in the store, but it took over 20 minutes for them to make our order which was a little annoying. The dessert was very good though. The ice cream and toppings were delicious and the waffle seemed to be well made. read more

I was looking for a local bubble waffle place since discovering them in the UK. What an awesome little shop! It's a little tucked away in a corner of the shopping center, but once you're inside there's good food and a good atmosphere. The staff was extremely friendly (I didn't get the guy's name, but he was very helpful and recommended the egg rolls, which were delicious). There were quite a few options for bubble waffles, and an extensive boba selection. I think I'll have to become a regular! Attached is a photo of the Cool Mint waffle, and the outside of the shop. read more
