Bubble Tea near Mount Prospect

“Our favorite thing about Straw and Bubbles has to be their croffles, they’re absolutely delicious! We’ve tried all the flavors, and honestly, it’s hard to even pick a favorite because they’re all so good.

It’s a great spot to grab something sweet and quick. The vibe is casual and fun, perfect for a little treat. We also love that they have a ramen wall for self-service, which is such a unique touch!

They also offer a nice variety of bubble teas and coffees to pair with your croffle or ramen. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for tasty desserts and drinks in a relaxed setting. 🧇🧋🍜“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“The owners are so wonderful and the environment is GREAT. Service was amazing and overall just a good place to go for a sweet treat with your family or just yourself lol“

“This is a nice little boba shop. They have a solid selection of drinks and toppings. There are a few pastries available, too.

I wish there was a nicer area inside to sit around and read, play board games, or hang out. Also, the drinks tend to be too sweet even at the lowest sugar preference. If they worked on these it would be an easy 5 stars.“

“We recently visited Cloud Tea and it instantly became our favorite spot! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, the drinks are absolutely delicious, and everything feels so fresh and high quality. The staff is super friendly and helpful, which makes the experience even better. And the fish waffles—absolutely amazing! Whether you’re in the mood to relax or grab something refreshing on the go, this place is perfect. Highly recommend!“

“The owner is very enthusiastic and recommends beef noodles and salt chicken as well as🤩😎😋“

“I was just passing through on a solo trip and saw how cute this shop looked on the outside and decided to duck in! Super cute and cozy atmosphere for being a smaller shop, featuring super cute croissant waffles and the best peach oolong tea I've encountered. And I've tried A LOT of Bubble Tea places. I'll keep this place on my radar when I come back!!“

“Very nice service and very clean would go again but the donut was a little bit too sweet. I love the tiramisu though 10 out of ten would get again.“

“First time here and my boba was delicious. The owner was very nice and helpful choosing a drink. I will definitely be back and bring my daughter!“

“I love all of your amazing drinks!!!“

“It is a nice and clean place for boba. Not really a fan of the prices but they are sort of reasonable. Brown sugar boba is a 10/10, tapioca was squishy but the drink itself was sweet. Could do better with their sanitary ways. Would recommend!“

“Excellent under this new management“

“The team here is super friendly and very responsive. I usually get a response through email in 2-3 hours. Whenever I need inventory, they let me pick it up the next day at the Warehouse. When they deliver, it’s always on Thursdays and very reliable. Great company to deal with!“

“This has got to be one of the best places to get Boba Tea in the Chicago area. They have a lot of different selections of drinks from brown sugar Boba all the way to Vietnamese iced coffee. You're looking at $7 a drink like the other Boba Tea shops, but they make their drinks better. You even get a reusable glass cup to use again, and get a 10% discount on your next visit. That's a really nice concept. I certainly would recommend Bearology over the other Boba tea shops. Reasonably priced drinks, reusable cups for next visit, and better tasting drinks.“

“Soooo Good..!!!! 💯💯💯👻👻👻👻👻“

“Delicious place first tome going today and I really liked it the pineapple green tea Nata jelly was super good. I’ll be going back for more.“

“Favorite place to get boba tea!“

“Best boba I’ve ever had, amazing!!!“

“My daughter is not a burger person , Boba Burger is one of her favorite places to eat!!! #Makayla from Chicago PD“

“Absolutely LOVE my Elk Grove Village Bobar. Wish I could hang there all day, the milk teas and vietnamese coffees are amazing! The ambience makes me want to stay forever.“

“Brown Sugar Bubble Tea isn’t just about amazing drinks – they also serve delicious food! The grilled chicken is a standout because it’s not fried in oil but cooked on the grill, making it super flavorful and healthier. They offer a variety of flavors to choose from, and everything tastes fresh and well-prepared.
The burgers are fantastic, especially the Sizzler Burger – it’s juicy, packed with flavor, and really satisfying. And the chicken wings? Absolutely 100/10! They’re perfectly cooked, seasoned to perfection, and just irresistible.
If you’re looking for great bubble tea and food in one place, this is the spot to visit. Highly recommend!“

“This is a fantastic place to get breakfast whenever you are heading to work on weekday rush hour!“

“Vegan marshmallows & Fantastic flavors! My favorite is the Flight: banana cream pie, This &$#! Got Serious, rhubarb crumble and Heaps of Love Yep 4‼️ Try the most unique & best tasting ice cream anywhere served by the friendliest and most welcoming staff! Head to Dinis!“

“Absolutely delightful atmosphere and I loved my latte!“

“I’d never heard of Poke until about six months ago. That being said, I went out on a limb and tried Poke Ono. It’s incredible. The food is fresh and delicious. I’m obsessed- do yourself a favor, and give this place a go!“

“This grocery store has really good stuff. They have a boba tea store in the front of the store, also lots of good veggies, fruit, and meats. They have good service to the customers and the staff are really nice. I recommend this grocery store.“

“Absolutely phenomenal Poke Burritos. Get the #1 Jimmy’s burrito. The sauce, freshness, and textural contrast is perfect. The shoyu ramen and gyoza did not impress and are skips. Restaurant is self serve and fast so it’s good for a quicker meal.“

“I got a pumpkin spice latte with brown sugar boba and the tapioca was super soft, chewy and warm! They’re also doing a Barbie collab right now which allows you to get a free Barbie straw topper if you get one of their Barbie themed drinks; I tried the Barbie Pink-Ade last time and it was refreshing!“

“This place never disappoints. Great service, amazing chicken and overall great atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“Tried this location this past August mainly for the sake of my 9-year-old son who loves CBT. We just got done eating dinner so naturally I have to ask him what he wanted for dessert.

Just like any other Chill parlor, delivers the same consistent taste which isn't necessarily the best tasting bubble tea but definitely not the worst either.

I've heard some ppl describe it as the McD's of bubble tea being it's not deemed authentic like other higher quality Asian chains and originated from Chi-Town.

Honestly it's not that bad at all and the older of my 2 sons claims it's his favorite brand in which case it was the very first bubble tea he drank (Taro) just before his 3rd birthday at the Hawthorn Mall location.

We live pretty far northeast in Lake County in Beach Park but if ever in the area again and my son gets that craving for CBT, we'll be back in. Hope for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).“

“Insanely delicious and fresh sushi.“

“This restaurant was a great find. The cheeseburger and fried chicken bites were delicious. I highly recommend trying the chicken and lamb bowls. All sauces can be ordered on the side if you like your food mild. My kids loved the Nutella bubble tea and Oreo pudding. PLUS they have board games like Uno, Connect Four, Jenga, etc.“

“アイスコーヒーとバブルワッフルで午後のひと時を楽しめます。“

“I got the Amore crepe with bananas and a scoop of strawberry ice cream. The fresh crème on this thing was beyond delicious. I have not enjoyed a crepe this much in many years. Although the place was very busy my crepe was ready in 5 minutes. They also did not skimp on the ingredients.“

“We stopped here on a whim while we waited for a tire repair at the local Firestone. Super friendly staff. Lots of customers coming in to place orders. My husband daughter ordered fries chicken and chicken tenders with fries and they did warn us it would take twenty mins because they cook them fresh to order. They were the crispiest, tastiest, flakiest pieces of chicken. The fries were awesome too. I had a single chicken taco and it was fresh, flavorful and delicious! We also ordered some bubble tea blended drinks that were good. I'm glad we stopped here.“

“I came here with my kids who were really excited for ice cream and boba, and we were very happy with the quality and service. Superman milkshake was so good, strawberry smoothie with tapioca was my favorite! We all had a blast and Jerry made us feel very welcomed! This will definitely be our ice cream and boba spot.“
