This place is so cute! I always get the dalonga coffee with the coffee jelly. It's so good. I love that they host kpop events here!I wish they were open all week. There are times I want the dalonga coffee and it's tuesday!

I really liked the vibe of this place. The staff is really friendly and the boba was delicious. There are so many flavors to choose from. I had trouble deciding, so I got two different ones and they were both amazing.

This is THE bobba shop! We got the signature brown sugar fresh milk with tapioca and cheese foam it was lovely. Perfectly sweet but also refreshing, bubbles cooked perfectly too. Make sure you get the cheese topping on whatever drink you get it’s amazing. The bobba cups come with little bear ears, so darn adorable! The place is decorated so cutely too, bunch of spots to chill and take pictures, especially if you have little kids. The staff are also friendly and they inform you about the menu and your choice of drink very clearly, I appreciate that. This is where I take my bobba every time I come to chinatown now.

TLDR; Roasted Brown Sugar drinks are great, creamy and sweet Kumquat High Mountain Tea at 75% sweet tasted like 100% sweet , will opt for 50% sweet next time (along with their other fruit drinks) -------- 2nd floor of the Chinatown eateries strip mall Self-order kiosk + ordering with cashier is available Bathroom is available for customers Good amount of tables~ typically seats just 4 Regular and Large size cups are available Roasted Brown Sugar drinks are great, creamy and sweet - really enjoyed this drink when I tried it in Houston, TX Kumquat High Mountain Tea was really good and refreshing but realized over time their 75% sweet actually tasted like 100% sweet so will try to opt for 50% sweet next time for their fruit teas Will be back so I can try their Roasted Brown Sugar Matchaaa

Super cute place, first time coming here and both our flavors were delicious! My only complaint is the place isn’t huge and there’s not a ton of seating but I’d definitely come again!

Solid bubble tea in the midst of chinatown. Cute interior, fast service, and good tea/tapioca. What more can you ask for?

This place is so cute and has such a wide selection of boba drinks. It's so hard to pick a drink every time we come. You can order at the counter or if you need time to peruse you can order at a touchscreen. Either way you won't be disappointed stopping in and grabbing a boba because it's yummy and adorable to hang out in. Even if you stay to drink whatever you order, it's a nice relaxing place to sit and chill or catch up with a friend. I keep coming back every time I'm in town. And you should too!

My favorite boba place in Chicago hands down. If you haven't had fresh boba before, Daboba's got you. Most of the other places have hard boba because they leave them out or they don't cook them to order. I'm not sure what Daboba does to the boba but they are always soft. It's also a cute place if you're looking for pictures for the gram. It's located on the second story btw

Typical boba shop! Still is a great place to grab a boba drink if other shops have a line. I liked how there is a kiosk to order from so there is no one to talk to and a secondary way to order when there is a line.

Delicious, spacious and very relaxing place to sit down for a break in Chinatown and enjoy some boba!! Their tea and other drinks taste so natural with so many different and nice textures to enjoy. Got a chocolate frap with cheese foam this time and partner a brown sugar pearl milk tea and we loved our time here. Wonderful place to relax and take a break :)

Love the open space and the colored lantern decor. The place was not the fastest but they have a ticketing system so they just call by number. I didn't hear my number but it's not in any order. They said all their drinks are dairy free, is that real? We took their words for it and had a hot oolong milk tea, they didn't ask sugar level or boba/nah, so the default was a little over $6. We really liked the flavor and sweet level (I think it's like 30% at other places). Love that they have paper boba straw!
