It's alright. Drinks are decent, boba is alright. The cups are super cool and the vibe is always nice but I've definitely had better boba drinks. Just my personal opinion though :)

I am a big fan of boba and will have boba whenever I can. After going to Honeyboba's location in Artesia, I think I've been forever scarred. First off, this place looked like it had been a victim of vandals as the door was boarded up and one glass wall was basically shattered. Second, there was no one in the store at prime time hours. Third, what kind of boba shop serves their boba tea in a screw top? Isn't the whole point of boba being able to suck it out of the thick straw? Even so, the drink was way too sweet and while I'm not a boba expert, I can tell that the boba wasn't properly cooked. Definitely won't be coming back here again.

Nice, clean & cheerful place. Lots of drink options. They accept card payment only, no cash or tipping.

Sign says they're open until 10pm on Sunday. Came here on 01/05/2020, at around 8:00pm. About 5 people were in there having a good time. I tried to open the doors but they were locked. Apparently, they were closed. Smh.

Looks like they are about to go under, too many drinks out of stock. Too bad it used be good.

It's alright. Not my favorite boba place, but it will do since it is right by Aloha Pizza and I'm not about to drive miles away after being pizza drunk. I've had the matcha milk tea with Honeyboba, and it was a little chalky. It might've been good with other flavors, perhaps? The inside of Gardena's Honeyboba has some very bright yellow seat cushions that are fun backdrop for photos. I just wish their boba game can step it up, as well.

First, I was disappointed, because they could not make their ice milk snowy drink, which is their most known drink, because they ran out of milk. I came around 5pm, which is not too late since they close at 10pm. However, I still ordered something on the menu. Then, I was confused afterwards, because I ordered jasmine green milk tea, and they were able to make that. I guess they use a different kind of milk for that compared to the snowy. Overall, I like how they use reusable plastic bottles at no extra charge, but it's not really efficient.. You have to take off the entire lid and put the straw on. So, I would not recommend this drink if you want to sip it in the car. It would probably spill.

Oh man... the last time we came here was about a year ago and it was so sad to see what has happened to this place. It used to be hard to find parking, line always out the door, and music always bumping. Complete opposite last night. The place was a mess with boxes all over the place and the service felt more like your mom making your teenage sister grab you a drink when she'd clearly rather be on her phone. The place was empty and there were probably only 4 or 5 add-ons available. My husband asked if they were going out of business and she said, "Maybe.... like at the end of the month... maybe.." We were hopeful that maybe their drinks are still good?? I've never had anything this bad. Like ever. We had a fruit tea and a slush and both were terrible. My son wanted to eat the pineapple bits from the slush but we wouldn't let him in case they went bad. Really couldn't tell how they could mess up so bad but it was pretty gross. Sad to see them go out like this but you really should save your boba money and spend it somewhere else.

I love the honey milk tea with egg pudding (50% sweetness). Everytime I'm in the area I have to go here. The new cups fit in car cupholders now. The only downside is the location always smells weird to me. I think it's the cleaner they use for the bathroom. It's not somewhere I could hang out even though it's cute inside with lots of space. Parking area is small and can fill up very quickly.

I've been coming here for ages and I've never had a problem with customer service. I myself work in a restaurant and am very understand of how annoying it can get when customers come in at the last minute but it happens. Me and my family from out of town went in there Tuesday around 9:35 and I was very disappointed in who attended us. I didn't catch her name but all I can describe is that she had bangs and worked at that time mentioned on 11/26. I went up to the register and she just looked at me so naturally I said hi kindly and she still didn't greet me, very rude I must say. I see that the business no longer accepts tips but that is not a reason to act unkindly to customers. I hope this doesn't continue.
I have come here a couple of times thinking maybe this time it will be better, but not. The drinks always taste sugar with flavor. The drinks are not enjoyable but the place is nice and people are quick to help.

The drinks are good, but pricey. I also hate that they only take charge cards ( no cash).
Timothy Stewart
The milktea and smoothies are delicious. I also loved the interior design.
John Marshall
Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating

Pretty chill spot to kill some time and really good taro. Love the cup/bottles they use for the drinks.
