After having Chinese Food we wanted something sweet and we found this little spot in Oakland. They have enough seating for 2 families (literally). But, it's ok because this place is only good for a quick stop cause have ice cream, pearl smoothies, shave iced drinks, home made iced coffee, vita drink and more. They serve their drinks with fresh fruits. Loved the pearl smoothie and ice cream only down fall is there's only 1 person working (very nice man) so when there's a line it may take a bit to get your only :).
I am not kidding when I say that this lychee smoothie (no pearl) is the best I’ve ever had!!! Fresh lychee, no powder or syrups!! 😋
I found this boba shop 1 week ago and my boyfriend and I plan on going every weekend this month. You can definitely tell the smoothie is made of fresh fruit and it's very refreshing. We've tried taro, lychee, avocado, and mango. Every drink was delicious. Among the many boba shops in the area, The Sweet Booth stands out for sure. Their last day is on 10/31, so be sure to check them out!

One thing to note is that it is a small shop meaning that there are only 2 people there doing everything that needs to be done to make the drinks. In the past, I have waited up to 30 minutes for my order, but it is small sacrifice for really good boba. If you're concerned about the wait time, go closer to when they first open. I went again today at 2 and waited not even 10 minutes.
Best taro milk tea in town! Real ingredients - no powders, just tea and yummy chunks of taro. The owner is extremely friendly and helpful. Charming mom & pop shop - an absolute gem.

Small shop with a friendly man at the counter.
Ordered a boba milk tea: the tea was good, but the boba pearls were more grainy and less flavorful than I'd hoped.
They also had ice cream, which I was very curious about!
Wonderful drinks and ice cream. Only real fruit!!! Plus the owners are really great, it's the best spot around, I've been coming here since I was a little kid.
Yummy durian smoothie with real durian fruit! I would visit here as a kid and order their avocado smoothie, equally yummy. Try the taro smoothie too! Everything here is delicious, the owners are very friendly, and I without a doubt would visit again.
Been coming here over 20 years and will keep coming. It's an amazing busy little shop. My go-to is the Mango with Pearl, but the Taro with Pearl is pretty amazing as well.
Fresh fruit only, no powders
Taro has little chunks and it makes it just right
For a pick-me-up, try the Extra Strength Coffee. Wowza
