"We tried this place today with some friends. All our kids loved their drinks. My girls got drinks with cheese foam and LaBubu jellies and said they were some of the best Boba they have had. I got a regular Thai tea and it was delicious. We will be back"

"This place is soo cute! Top tier boba for sure!! So many options and flavors to choose from. Lots of seating available and even games to play while you wait or while you enjoy your drink. The offer these adorable Labubu toppers, unfortunately they were out when we went but it just gives us a reason to go back. Can't wait to try more flavors. Their "cloud" drinks are definitely more comparable to a milkshake consistency but still delicious none then less. Also tried the brown sugar delight and its so yummy, definitely a must try. Looking forward to going back and staying to enjoy some games."
