    it is small shop which touch screen kiosk to order near Oakland Chinatown. Practically you have to wait for the person in front of you finish their order before you get it. it might fit max 4 to 5 people. There are plenty option from the menu. You can choose sweet option. The drink is pretty good. The price is reasonable.

    I was at the bank a few blocks away when I decided I needed a boba recharge after I was done. Located on Franklin St, this small little shop is easily missed and best spotted by The Lunch Box cafe right next door. The interior is really small, but you can place your order via the self-service kiosk or with the barista at the counter. Opted for my tried-and-true Passion Fruit Green Tea w/ boba and was not disappointed. The juice was fresh and nicely tinged with a few slices of lemon. And the boba amount was generous and of a nice, chewy consistency. The have a few chairs outside if you wish to dine there, but seating is really limited. Metered parking is available on Franklin St.

    I've been visiting this boba shop regularly to pick up drinks for my wife. It's one of her favorites, and over time one of mine as well. The quality keep us coming back. I'll be sure to capture better photos next time to do the presentation justice. Since I started coming here, the menu has undergone a few changes. Some longtime favorites have been retired ( I still miss the banana milk tea) but they've introduced new specials that continue to impress. On this visit, I tried the Cocoa Volcano Brown Sugar Boba, White Peach Oolong Tea Latte, and the Durian Coffee Latte. The Cocoa Volcano is one of our staples. The White Peach Oolong, topped with fresh cream was a standout, but not in the right cup for my preference. The Durian Coffee Latte was unique. There were a good amount of durian chunks that I ended up blending, and added a bit more coffee to suit my taste, and the result was great. Our usual picks also include the Matcha and Coffee Volcano, as well as the Lychee, Passion Fruit Tea, and Hazelnut Milk Tea. All consistently well-executed with fresh flavors and high-quality ingredients

    Yummy Yokee! Came here on a Thursday early afternoon during my lunch and was surprised to see a bit of a crowd waiting for their drinks! I even saw people get dropped off just to go here as the street parking situation isn't the best. The place itself is super small where there is only space inside to order at the kiosk and pickup your drink from the counter. I honestly think it works because the place is more of a grab and go situation to allow more orders to go through. They had a good amount of options ranging from specialty teas to sago drinks / blended items. I got the Osmanthus Oolong Tea with cheese foam and boba. The tea flavor was strong and the cheese foam was creamy with a hint of saltiness from the cheese, but it didn't overpower the tea flavor at all. May you say I was ~ obsessed ~ with my drink. The boba itself also had a nice sweet flavor and was a bit chewy. Still remained on the softer side as I drank it. I'd love to come back and try more of their drinks! I had such a pleasant experience. I can see why there's a lot of people going here to get drinks.

    Easy to order online Clean store and quick service Super tasty milk tea with boba. Cute boba shop

    More like 3.5 -- I've just had a lot of boba drinks and am a bit particular since I often get the same kind. They got the 25% sweetness down perfectly and the drink was gooood but fairly standard. I will say the tapioca pearls were perfectly chewy. Was bummed that the drink I wanted, the Cocoa one, wasn't available. Cute little shop though w/ a couple of chargers available if needed along with some seating against both walls. They made the most of the small space and I'd come back again to try the other boba!

    Great place to grab a boba after ice skating at the ice center, which is walking distance away. They're strictly a grab n go place-Not a lot of seating. With the fruit drinks, you get a choice of slush or smoothie-We chose lychee slush and strawberry slush, both fresh and delish. Also got the brown sugar volcano with boba, also excellent. It was prepared very quickly (wasn't too busy on Sat afternoon.)

    This place had a lot of drink choices from lattes, fruit teas, cheese drinks, milk teas, smoothies, etc. We decided to try the matcha volcano and mango smoothie. The boba was very soft and chewy. However, our drinks didn't have a lot of flavor. If I were to come back, I'd get 100% sweetness instead of 75%. This is a small boba shop. You can order through the self-order kiosk. They have two tables and four chairs available outside of the shop but no seating inside. There is limited street parking.

    Cheese Berry
    Aerielle S.

    Been here a few times, small place and usually does not have a line! You order at the kiosk and the order usually takes like 5-8 minutes. This time I got the cheese berry (25% sweet). The smoothie part by itself was not sweet but when you drank it with the cheese foam it was a really good combination of flavors! Creamy and fruity!

    We ordered online to save time since the location is on the smaller side. Street parking is available and it was fairly empty on the Saturday afternoon that we went. There are two small tables outside for seating. The shop is fairly small and can only fit a few people at a time inside. The boba itself was cooked well and I appreciated how much they put in the cup. The flavor of the tea was on the more mild side and more difficult to taste, but I appreciated the alternative milk options that they offered.

    A small hole in the wall shop along the street. The inside can comfortably fit about 4 people at most, so it's a little awkward when they're busy. Ordered the black milk tea which was of decent quality and they filled half the cup with boba? I'm not mad at it lol. Nothing extremely stellar but I appreciate that the boba was warm and chewy at the cost of all the ice melting.

    Supper small spot I wish they had a sitting area they only have chairs outside sadly. They have a machine to order from, it's quick and easy. All the drinks I got were delicious I went on a whim getting the mango one but it was DELICIOUS, I'm on a diet really shouldn't of gotten it but I will be thinking about how delicious it was all week.

    This to go spot for boba in downtown and convenient. I haven't tried other drinks here because they do the mango sago so well, but this is a pretty busy spot and people walk out with all kinds of drinks. They have a stamp card too! Ambiance - you can order on a large tablet or at the counter if someone is there. Usually someone is if a line starts growing

I also appreciate that the menu includes photos, which makes choosing much easier. I ordered the jasmine green tea with sweet creme and really enjoyed it. The tea flavor is on the stronger side, but the creme balances it out nicely. I also ordered the spicy popcorn chicken, and it was fresh, well‑seasoned, and extra crispy just like I requested. No need for extra seasoning at all. Service was solid, and overall this visit was much better than my first. I would definitely stop by again if I am in the area and craving a snack.

I'm usually not much of a milk tea person, but the Bubble Volcano won me over. Made with fresh milk, brown sugar, and boba, it was rich without being overly heavy or cloying. The boba pearls were excellent quality -- fresh, soft, and perfectly chewy all the way through. None of that hard-center, overly gelatinous texture you sometimes get elsewhere. The sweetness level was also well-balanced and restrained, which made the drink even more enjoyable. My favorite was the Green Tea + Mango. Sweet, refreshing, bright, and satisfying. The drink tasted clean and natural, not syrupy or artificially candy-like. The twine rope carry handle is adorable! Super cute presentation and very aesthetically pleasing... although I'm 99% sure I'm eventually going to spill the drink everywhere while carrying it around. Worth the risk.

The cafe wasn't empty but it wasn't that busy either to me. It just felt like the staff were having fun by themselves or maybe they were with their friends.
