“Was originally hesitant trying the popular poke bowl, but immediately the staff was helpful and welcoming! I created my own bowl and had so much fun choosing from the variety of fresh ingredients. Definitely was packed with love. 11/10 so fulfilling in all the right ways!“

“The OG boba spot, a Union City staple. Been my favorite boba spot since high school and that hasn’t changed since. The drinks and the snacks bring a nostalgic and consistent comfort every time.
Shout out to the cashier lady who always remembers me and my order whenever I make a trip here, appreciate your service!“

“I enjoy their drinks here. The only complaint is they take a long time to prepare the drinks. I guess it’s takes time to make excellent tasting drinks. But it does turn me off sometimes from stopping here. Other than that the crafty lemon drinks hit the spot.“

“Great boba and croquettes. Strawberry+banana smoothie was perfect. Really pleasant and fine ice texture. The brown sugar boba was tasty and perfect texture. Also some of the pearls were cold enough to firm up perfectly, reminiscent of a frozen strawberry or other fruit. The croquette was cooked crispy and included katsu sauce, I think.“

“We ordered the chicken shawarma plate from the “Grill” section and chose hummus as our base and then babaghanouge and muhammara (roasted red pepper and walnut dip) as our 2 sides. We also got some freekeh (toasted green wheat) on the side.
Simply put, this was a masterpiece. Every time I eat this type of cuisine, I start re-evaluating all the years I spent without Middle Eastern food. About how much of a shame it is that I discovered this amazing food so late in life. But no point in lamenting the past—we must look towards the future and get ourselves excited about how much Middle Eastern food we will consume moving forward!
Anyway, let me start talking about the food forreal now. The corn and edamame salsa was incredibly fresh, springy, and each kernel of corn and each edamame bean had an incredible crunch and sweetness to it that definitely complemented the meaty chicken. The chicken was nicely spiced but could have been a tad bit warmer, I thought. Nonetheless, great flavors and seasoning. The hummus was absolutely delectable. Velvety smooth, perfect amount of bitterness and nuttiness from the tahini, nicely seasoned, and adequately bright from the lemon juice and fruity olive oil.
The freekeh was a nice surprise. I had never had freekeh before, and the individual grains were so bouncy and juicy that I had to re-think my rice-centric grain worldview. The seasonings made the side feel like a complete meal of its own—the grain had a base of roasty, toasty nuttiness that went amazingly well with the smooth outer coating of olive oil (presumably) and warm, Middle Eastern spices. Perfect with any of the three dips or their house-made sauces.
Speaking of the dips, the muhammara and babaghanouge were perfect as well. Everything had a healthy drizzle of the most fruity, fresh olive oil ever, which only heightened the deliciousness of each dip. The muhammara was very sweet, which let me know that the red peppers were indeed roasted super well. The babaghanouge was also super smoky but rather chunky, which made for a textural delight and contrast from the very smooth hummus. And when combined with the soft, pillowy, and comforting pita bread… So perfect.“

“Best Jumba location I've been to. The two morning employees are quick to have my order ready every time. Today, Julie realized that I never picked up my order from 2 weeks ago and gave me my smoothie. Both employees are very friendly and have attention to detail. Give em a raise!!!“

“You order on a digital pad at the front, and before you know it—your drink appears. Super fast and efficient. The menu is huge—tons of options. We kept it simple (no boba; not doing that anymore—too much junk), and what we got was fresh, flavorful, and really hit the spot. Not cheap, but what is these days? Overall, a solid spot. Would return“

“Ordered Hojicha Tea Latte, really liked it. Selected less ice, still felt like a lot ice in it, but I guess that's normal for the industry now. Just would be more careful when drinking it while driving, during the dark, and/or wearing light color clothes, since I think the cup cap design is a little easy to cause spill.
Anyway, the drink itself is really good, will come back and try some more“

“Gong Cha is always a staple of mine whenever I am looking for boba and they happened to have a convenient location near shopping and some good restaurants.
Note: Gong Cha locations use a non-dairy creamer but beware, these almost always still contain whey which is a dairy derivative. It's a common misnomer so always ask for non-dairy milk if you are vegan like myself or adverse to dairy products/have an allergy.
In order to get a non-dairy drink, I was told to order from the Fresh Milk Menu. I did so with my Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Oat Milk and it was satisfying overall. It is indeed quite sweet even with 50% sugar so I'd advise to go even less if you aren't wanting a completely sweet drink.
Staff were friendly and helpful.“

“8-Twelve is a true neighborhood gem. It is the kind of place where kids can grab a snack and a fun drink for a reasonable price, and then just relax after school. Even though it is not as close to the middle or high school as some of the other hangouts, it has become one of our favorites.
I appreciate that it has lasted the test of time and I hope it continues to thrive. One of the best parts is that they offer non-caffeinated tea drinks for the kids, which is rare and so thoughtful.
8-Twelve has that welcoming vibe that makes it feel like part of the community.“

“First time trying a drink at this location. I ordered the Mango Yogurt Smoothie w/ Mango Kanten J and it was yummy. The gentleman making the drinks was friendly and nice. I asked for the Felix’s cup sleeve and he told me “You have to buy Felix’s pick drinks to get it but I will give you one. Don’t tell anyone.” I’d come back again to try other drinks!“

“This place is a gem! I’ve been to Boba Nation a few times now and it’s quickly become my favorite boba spot. The variety on the menu is great there’s something for every mood, whether you’re into fruity teas or creamy milk-based drinks. Last time I got their strawberry matcha latte, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had.“

“I had a great experience at Happy Lemon! While waiting for my order, I noticed a young male staff member thoughtfully washing his hands after handling money from a customer. It was such a simple gesture, but it really stood out to me and made the whole visit feel even more pleasant and hygienic. It gave me even more confidence in how they handle everything. And of course, my mango matcha smoothie was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and just the right balance of sweet and earthy. Will definitely be coming back!“
“Came here with a friend and they had such interesting flavors! I got the plum tea with water chestnut boba and it was delicious 😋 My friend and I caught up for hours in the cafe and the owner/workers were so kind and offered us a mochinut! Delicious; so glad this place is nearby. Can't wait to come by again! :)“

“A bit hot inside but it's ok. Got lumpia, sweet potato fries, pot sticker, thia tea boba, and milk tea boba with mom. Nice staff. It's great that there's pictures of some of the food and drinks on the windows because you get to see what they have before you come in. Even more pictures near the register. Menus without pictures are kind of boring.“

“The cashier was awesome, so was the one who made our drinks. This location is small but they have regulars coming in. It got busy real quick but it was a hot day, so still worth the wait.
My sister got the Avocado Avalanche 🥑 and I had the New Coconut Matcha 🥥🍵 both with the honey boba! Highly recommend them! They were blended well and tasted delicious! Would come back if I'm in the area.“

“I ordered a fruit smoothie and it was fantastic to see the robotic arm in action especially how it collected the ingredients, loaded it into the blender and poured the smoothie from the blender to the cup. I tried a protein powered smoothie next for testing and it worked flawlessly again. Oh and the drinks were excellent as well. Highly recommend it for the delicious drinks and for the experience of seeing the future of Robotics+AI live.“

“I have never seen a Boba shop like this. There are unique ways to tri Boba that I’ve never tried before. Hailey recommend mixing and matching each time and they also have a flavor of the day each time you go in. Physically the building is a little hidden and small, but this place is always busy.“

“Quick walking distance from Union city bart! I was greeted by both workers as soon as I walked in! I ordered the iced caramel macchiato and an everything bagel. Great coffee and food for great prices. I am super impressed by the customer service. The seating is also spacious. Sometimes I dont like taking zoom meetings from cafes but this is a good space to do that. You can be spread out from people if you please. Super amazing small business! Go support!“
