50 Best Bubble Tea near Lakewood

“We recently ordered two boba drinks from Bobuzz, including their signature “PMC” with boba and “The Dark White.” While the overall flavor of the drinks was comparable to other quality boba shops, the tapioca pearls (“boba”) were unfortunately undercooked, which detracted from the experience. Additionally, offering customers the option to customize the sweetness level would be a welcome improvement. While there is potential, the overall experience left us with mixed feelings. Personally, it wouldn’t be my first choice for a dessert stop after a pleasant meal, at least not for now.“

“Really good milk tea and unique toppings that are made in shop. The black sesame topping so good and the first time I’ve come across it. Many of the toppings are low in sugar which is nice. If you have a good palette for tea, this is higher quality than almost all the other boba shops. The caffeine content seems higher most milk tea, in that I actually notice it.“

“Best Apple Fritters in town hands down! They also make mini fritters with crispy goodness all the way around. Just ordered 3 dozen for a Celebration of Life to honor my father, and they were a hit. His favorite go to in the morning was a fritter and coffee.“

“The staff was really rude, it was a guy in the back just ignoring the fact I had just got there to order... and didn't even greet or anything just stared and continued to do whatever he was doing.. wait for about 20mins before leaving.. I even had eye contact with him😒😒“

“I’ve tried their Mystic Ube Matcha, Guava Grape Bliss, and a Peach Slush that’s no longer on the menu, and they were all delicious. I really like that they use fresh fruit, and when paired with the lowest sweetness level, the drinks turn out perfect. The staff are friendly and have recommended and fine tuned our drinks many times!

The shop itself is pretty small with no real indoor seating, so it’s definitely more of a grab-and-go spot.“

“this is a shop co-founded by a Taiwanese-American (ABC) and a social media influencer, offering a variety of creative snacks. Examples include Pineapple Bun Fried Chicken Burgers, Mapo Tofu Cheesy Taro Hash, Walnut Shrimp Burgers, and Hainanese Chicken Tacos—sounds so unique!

For milk tea recommendations: Try their lactose-free oat milk series and matcha fresh milk. All ingredients are carefully selected—featuring Taiwanese tea leaves and Japanese matcha—with no artificial additives. Perfect for health-conscious crowds to give a try!“

“Excellent milk teas and snappy service. My discount coupon was lost but they gave it to me anyway. kudos“

“The lady was super sweet that helped me with my order. I got a taro milk tea before class and it is one of the best i had. The cup is also super durable and the prices are fair. I will be returning after my wisdom teeth surgery to try the popcorn chicken. Whatever was being cooked smelled really good ?“

“Being Taiwanese, I had high expectations trying Gong cha for the first time, and oh boy they delivered, no kizzy! Milk tea was authentic and on point, and the assortment of jellies and boba added that finishing touch. Really thought I was back in Taiwan for a second. Wonderful.“

“Saw the ad on Facebook and coincidentally found the place today. I ordered the pineapple and strawberry drink which had yakult in it. It was such a pretty drink and very enjoyable. Fast service!“

“I came in on 12/27 around 2pm and there were 2 guys working ( Anthony and someone else I didn't catch his name tag)They were dealing with a crazy customer who was yelling at them, talking down at them over a small upcharge they didn't want to pay for. They took care of the rest of us in line while still handling her which I really appreciate. They didn't deserve that treatment and still kept a smile on their face. They kept a good attitude despite someone being rude and entitled!“

“Very delicious drink, my family really love brown sugar boba milk and classic milk tea here“

“The drinks are real tasty and the boba is freshly made not like other boba locations where it tastes weird with a weird texture. I got the tiger sugar milk tea and peach mango drink both with boba and they taste amazing!! The worker here is very nice and greets you with a smile. She’s like a nice mom or grandma:)“

“On the way home so stop by this place to try it out. So impressed by the Teapresso, the aroma of the shop, the act of brewing one cup at a time. Definitely worth the money! The cup is full of tea and boba, just light ice and perfect amount of sugar! Will come back whenever I’m in OC.“

“Se ve muy limpio y el personal amable“

“It was really nice place and had great food! Enjoyed my time there as well!“

“Decided to try their Strawberry Ice Blended with Lychee Jelly and Ice Cream. Sweetness was not overpowering, and it was good for a hot summer day! Wait times were average with maybe a five minute wait at best. You can either order at the counter or with a self-pay kiosk. There are seats on the inside.“

“Cocoa cream wow 🤤 es delicioso 😋“

“I have had a few of the specialty drinks (Sunset Passion and Dragon Slayer) and really enjoyed them. However the main drink I would usually get is a Mango tea and the mango puree is more of small/thin mango chunks and doesn’t really seem like it has as much mango flavor as I am used to.“

“We LOVED their fried rice it was so good! Solid amount of chicken in it too. We ordered the chicken garlic noodles as well that was also tasty. The woman who took our order was so sweet she brought out all of our items to us very gingerly and also put a nice big bottle of siracha out. We wished we lived closer so we could come more often!“

“Excellent milk teas and snappy service. My discount coupon was lost but they gave it to me anyway. kudos“

“This was my first time here. The shop is super cute and the Passion Fruit green tea was🔥“

“Nice vibes…………………..!!!!!!!“

“The drinks were very good healthy choice“

“The inside is really spacious and open, lots of natural light. I would get this place 4.5 stars because half of the items I wanted weren't available. That could be on me for going in on a Sunday afternoon however.
I liked the barista, friendly and she had a really good recommendation since I wanted a Vietnamese coffee and they didn't have the concentrate available. I would go back again.“

“I went with my kids today. They have the cutest containers for the bobas. I got a milk carton and my daughter got a kitty. So cute!“

“butter cookie coffee 👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀“

“This is our go to bobba place .
Pretty pleasant . Never really had an issue here!
Bobba always hits!!!!
I get the cocunut milk tea with bobba . Less sugar and my kids get Tara smoothie with bobba and my husband get the manganata smoothie“

“Great boba! I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha and one of their signatures, the Hokkaido Milk Tea... The matcha was delicious and the brown sugar was a nice subtle twist! The hokkaido milk tea was a bit sweet for me but otherwise very enjoyable. In the end, I think the matcha was my favorite“

“Lavender lemonade and good company ❤️“

“My favorite boba place close to where I live. I love their creme brulee drinks and the boba pearls are actually really good here. It's usually pretty empty so we get our drinks quickly and it's really calm in there. There's decent parking outside and they even have mini bahn mi sandwiches that are pretty good as well“

“Love this boba place! They have good options and the drinks are consistently good! I think the management has recently changed because they’re more attentive and the service feels faster and friendlier. You can tell they’ve put effort into keeping the place clean and running smoothly. Definitely a great spot to keep coming back to!“

“Best boba place in town, consistent, strong tea flavored drinks and consistent boba. Matcha latte contains a good amount of matcha and is well worth it. They have a 10% sugar option that works because of the good tea flavor. Please don't change!“

“it was my first time & it was amazing“

“Visited OC and was looking for a place to chill. We found this place and tried their taro and winter melon milk tea, as well as their mango fruit tea. It wasn’t bad. The only thing is I think their AC is not working.

Parking: First come first serve“

“Such a tasty and refreshing treat! Wonderful and friendly service. I usually enjoy hot tea over cold but they have converted me! House tea and lychee hibiscus are a must try ��“

“I was in California for the Punishing Gray Raven x Boba Guys collaboration event. Altough I really enjoyed my time in CA overall in that only few days I could be there, my favourite place I visited was Boba Guys on Long Beach. Everyone was so nice, glad they had a bit of time to chat with me as well. Thank you for the memories, also the special drinks were the most delicious drinks I have ever tasted, I'm really sad that they were limited. Anyways, definietly a worth to visit place if anyone travels around Long Beach!

Greetings from Hungary!

“😍Great Fresh Fruit Juice“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“Good service and better Boba!

I was in the area and in the mood for some boba and stopped by and I'm glad I did the girl behind the counter named Jane did an amazing job helping me . They also have a bunch of different soups and ramen meals!

Would recommend and return 👌“

“I’ve been here a couple times and Jason is a real stand up guy who is very friendly and courteous. His shop is clean and he’s got tons of choices! It takes awhile just to figure out what you want out of all the choices. The location is in a shopping center I go to for other things so it is in a convenient location for me. Will keep coming!“

“I tried most of the drinks and they are all sooo good but my favorite is the Chamango … it’s too die for. I’ll recommend it to everybody 👍“

“I went with my kids today. They have the cutest containers for the bobas. I got a milk carton and my daughter got a kitty. So cute!“

“Tapioca Express is a solid spot for a quick and satisfying bubble tea fix, and more! They offer a huge selection of milk teas, snow bubbles (blended icy drinks), and fruit teas, so there's truly something for everyone. Beyond the drinks, they're well-known for their crispy popcorn chicken and other savory snacks like French fries and potstickers, making it a great place for a combo meal. It's a popular choice for a casual hangout or a study break, with generous portions and a wide variety of flavors to explore.“
