Bubble Tea near Kapolei

“I stopped by S7 Icy Bubble in Kapolei and it quickly stood out as a great local spot if you are looking for refreshing bubble tea and fruit drinks on the west side of Oʻahu.

The shop focuses on a variety of drinks including classic milk teas, fruit teas, and iced specialty drinks with toppings like tapioca pearls and other add-ons. One of the things that stood out to me was how vibrant the drinks look when they are served. The colors and presentation immediately catch your attention.

The fruit drinks feel especially refreshing, which makes them perfect for the warm Kapolei weather. Many of the drinks have a balanced sweetness that allows the tea or fruit flavors to come through rather than being overly sugary.

Another highlight is the texture from the toppings. The tapioca pearls have the chewy consistency that people expect from a good bubble tea, and they pair well with both milk tea and fruit-based drinks.

The shop itself has a clean and modern layout with a straightforward ordering counter. Most people grab their drinks to go, but the service moves quickly and the staff are friendly.

Overall, S7 Icy Bubble is a solid stop in Kapolei if you are looking for colorful, refreshing bubble tea drinks that are easy to grab while running errands or exploring the area“

“Love this place! Drinks are always super delicious and the staff is very friendly! Sooo yummy❤“

“Nice tea flavor. Boba had a good texture. Even though only 1 person was working, our drinks came out relatively quickly. We got 75% sweet because we don't like it too sugary, but I think the drinks would have actually been even better with the normal 100% sweetness.“

“I took my mom there shes never been there , she had the strawberry nirvana, I loved the ginger shot.“

“Great drinks and the staff is always so friendly!“

“So, I am a total townie. To me, going past Chinatown is going to the boonies. Going to Aiea and taking the freeway is like going to another country where you don't know how to drive. Well, I took the adventure and it was totally worth it to check out this place. Had tried before, but unfortunately, they were still closed due to COVID restrictions. After thinking about trying to go again, I found the time and couldn't believe what I was missing out on all this time. The food is just amazing. I've had Taiwanese soups of many kinds over the years, but their Cow Wow beef noodle soup was by far the best I have ever had. Lots of excellent meat, rich broth and spiced perfectly. My partner had the Fooki Belly plate and I was amazing with the pork that was so perfectly cooked and so flavorful with fatty yumminess. We also got the Grandpa Rolling Beef, which was like an Asian crepe burrito. It was fantastic as well, but didn't really need so much plum sauce on it and would ask for it on the side when we go back again. The place has a certain Asian kitschy sheik to it, like something with a Shanghai old movie feel. They are super cautions with COVID safety and maybe can ease up just a bit, but I do appreciate their efforts to keep themselves as well as their dinners safe. If this place were to open up another location in the Honolulu area, I would probably be there way to much. Maybe it is a good thing that they are out of my normal travel comfort limits, so that it makes it extra special when I go back again for their amazing food.“

“I stopped by Teapresso Bar in Waiʻanae and it turned out to be a great spot for bubble tea and refreshing drinks on the west side of the island. The shop has a relaxed neighborhood feel and seems to be a popular stop for locals looking for a quick drink.

The menu includes a wide variety of drinks ranging from classic milk teas to fruit teas and specialty iced drinks. One of the highlights for me was the balance of flavor in the milk tea. The tea itself comes through clearly rather than being overly sweet, which makes the drink more refreshing.

The tapioca pearls have the chewy texture that people expect from a good boba drink, and they pair well with the milk tea base. If you prefer something lighter, the fruit teas are also a great option and work especially well in the warm Waiʻanae weather.

The shop itself has a simple and clean layout with a straightforward ordering counter. Most customers grab their drinks to go, and the service moves quickly even during busy times.

Overall, Teapresso Bar is a solid stop in Waiʻanae if you are looking for a refreshing bubble tea or fruit drink while exploring the west side of Oʻahu.“

“A great stop after Aiea hike! Small mom and pop shop, she also uses real fruits to make smoothie! Ask her what is in season and she can make you the best fruits smoothie!! We got papaya mango and strawberry mango. I also got pearl but other reviews were right. she overcooked them so its a little too soft but would just come back for the smoothies“

“The drinks I ordered was average to other boba shops, granted that I ordered simple, flavored green tea with jelly and a lemonade slush with jelly too.
However, the service was great. I heard the cashier greet customers she hadn't seen in a while with a friendly welcome. All staff was friendly and helpful. I ordered something online, two orders but apart from each other. I was told that both would be made and ready together. But that wasnt the case and only one order was ready at pick up. It seems that communication between all involved are not in sync. The person helping me at the shop was very professional in handling the situation. There was no compensation for their error and I realized this is not the first time it happened. (They need to work on this)
But I'll be back, obviously for my order, and perhaps order a different drink to try next time.“
