I have been here a handful of times, some with my wife as well. In my opinion their tea is the best hot, cold is ok. Egg Tarts when in are great and they do unique ice cream in the summer. A great place overall.

I came for a book club meet up last night and had the best time! The atmosphere is wonderful and the drinks are delicious! I really enjoyed the classic mango Boba slushy

Here for those who usually get nervous when ordering or just want to know the process of it. (click to read more, it's a super long post)
These pictures are their current most consistent menus.
Here's the instructions on build your own boba menu for those need it:
First, you should choose your type of drink. Their options for non-coffee drinks are Smoothie, Slushie, Milk tea, Flavored tea, Thai tea, Chai latte, Matcha latte, Italian soda.
Next, you should choose the flavors for your type of drink (can be up to 4). The flavors for each type of drink are color coded, so you can see in the first pic, those in orange box can be flavors for Smoothie or Milk tea and those in green box can be flavors for the list specified next to it.
*If you choose Milk tea or Flavored tea, you will be asked what type of tea you want as the base. They will have Green tea (Jasmine, more floral scented), Black tea (Assam, lighter smell so if you want the flavors to "pop" out more then I recommend choose this), or decaf tea.
*If you choose anything under the Tea Latte's categories or Thai Tea, then usually you won't get asked about the flavors because those drinks are like the "default," you can tweak it but they're similar to pre-build drink instead of build your own. Again, you can tweak however you want=))) Another pretty straight forward drinks like that is brown sugar milk tea.
*They have milk alternatives too: Coconut and Oat milks. Keep in mind that the milk they use in MILK TEA is non-dairy, lactose-free and gluten-free already. And the base for their Smoothie is lactose-free.
*You can choose any flavors in the coffee section as well, just a tad bit more money.
Then, you will choose the toppings/bottoms in the blue box, can mix up to 2 flavors of boba for free, but up to 3 I think they charge the same with extra boba (not sure?).
*If you are foreign to these boba thingy, they offer 3 free small samples so you can try. It never hurts to ask and they were really nice about it to make sure I got the stuff I like and deserve the money spent!
Then you should be done!
For the coffee section, they usually guide you through it, one thing I noticed they ask for is you want 'em to be light or dark roast.
*Light roast has more caffeine in them than dark roast.
**Personal favorite/hidden gem for those who willing to try: (I also have a bit of a "grandma" taste so these might not be your style)
-Red bean milk tea with green tea, extra flavor (of red bean), use oat milk with extra 1oz of it, and topping is red bean or boba of choice.
-Wintermelon milk tea, black tea, half sweet with boba of choice.
-Ginger bread cocoa hot.
-Longan honey and vanilla milk tea, black tea, warm or cold either way are good.
-Or just be adventurous and ask what the cashier ppl's favorite and go for it!
Food wise, they're all great in general, I don't eat a lot of them but my friends like the dumplings here, seem to be one of their popular offers too.
They also have something called punch card, which you'll get a punch for each DRINK you purchase and once you reached 10 punches, you'll get a free one. Punch cards are given out for free and without any need for phone numbers or email addresses so why not.
Anyways, if you actually read all of these and ended up here, man, I hope this helps somewhat. Good luck!

Fantastic family run boba tea shop! This shop is the OG boba shop this side of Michigan, prices are great, and staff are always so nice! They offer vegetarian and vegan options for food and drinks! Plus almost all drinks are gluten free! :)

My husband and I went here for the first time a couple days ago, it was a great experience. The two ladies working were very friendly and answered all of our questions. The place was very clean and cute decorated. The boba was good! We will definitely be coming back to try more things on their menu.

I won’t go anywhere else for boba. Currently craving boba but this place doesn’t open till 2pm on weekdays and I have to be at work by 2! It would be cool if they could open just a little earlier on weekdays and close a little sooner instead!
Other than that this place is amazing. I typically get a smoothie with pooping boba, and something about their boba is just so much better than any place I’ve been to. I’ve been going here since I was a freshman in highschool (2017), and they have upgraded the inside so much. I love the vibe and if I didn’t have bills I would spend my entire paycheck here! They’re good and drinks are so delicious! Would recommend 20/10!

This is such a cute store, and the staff is so friendly. The music and lighting set such a friendly environment, and they offer games and lots of seating. My best friend and I are gonna come here for art dates. 10/10

Beautiful shop. The staff was kind & patient with the young girls I was with. They answered their questions & offered wonderful suggestions.
The girls didn't feel pressured or rushed while ordering. ♥️
The space offers an experience through the beautiful decor, rather than just products.

I've had bubble tea at a few different places around town, but Cafe Boba is just a little better than the others. I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but there's a difference. Of course, the service and the atmosphere inside are great as well, but the tea is outstanding. Lots of options, flavors, add-ins to customize it too.
