Bubble Tea near Vernon Hills

“Found my favorite childhood snack — egg waffles 🧇 — at MilkCow cafe near home! Definitely coming back again! Their ice cream was amazing too — super creamy and full of milky goodness 🍦💛“

“ALL THE BAD REVIEWS ARE NOT TRUE! This is an amazing boba stand and the customer service is just amazing! I have never been disappointed by the employees nor the drinks. I and my family are always so pleased to come by and stop by for a tasty drink! These people must have had bad days and twisted the story a bit, but no one I’ve ever known has ever had a bad experience! Today was still awesome and I enjoyed the boba I got today :))“

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

“Highly recommend trying Merienda’s. I went there based on a recommendation from a friend. Loved the vibe, mom/pop, cute restaurant, with a lot of delicious options. Tried the spicy shrimp with garlic rice, pancit, ube latte with oat milk, pink calamansi lemonade, & mango cheesecake. Delicious! Will definitely go back to try other dishes. Very reasonably priced for the portion size. The guy at the register was friendly & enthusiastic with helping us select our entree.“

“Great staff, the bubble tea is a must have. Try it now if you haven’t done so 😊“

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

“Delicious boba tea! I had the Coconut milk tea with boba and my husband had the mango fruit with boba. This was our first time here! It was busy when we walked in with lines for those wanting to get there bubble / boba tea. There was a great menu of options to choose from and a nice sitting area to relax, and enjoy the drinks. Staff were quick and busy filling in the orders that were coming in. This is located in Chinatown near the Chinatown square. Great spot and delicious boba teas! We will definitely come back when we visit this area again!“

“My daughter has her first bubble tea beverage today, strawberry lemonade with strawberry boba and is in love.“

“This past March marked the very 1st time trying this Kung Fu Tea and just like other locations I've been to, same consistently delicious bubble tea.

Pretty sure Lake Forest never had any bubble tea parlors or if there's any Asian/oriental restaurants that serve bubble tea but I'm guessing this place is the town's 1st parlor.

Bubble tea/boba is the in-thing now and is rapidly growing all across the country. Anytime a new boba shop opens in the area, I can't wait to try it.

Friendly service at still reasonable prices in a new spiffy clean venue in beautiful downtime LF and I hope this place gets oodles of business and stays open for decades to come.“

“Oh my gosh it’s about time we finally got a place like this near me!!!!! I LOVED IT.
Strawberry BOBA TEA was yummy and sweet Cappuccino boba milk kinda tasted like a cappuccino cold coffee with tapioca so yummy.

Got 2 burritos and a bowl. Bowl was super yummy and filled up the large adult. The burritos were filling too and so so good!“

“The food was great and the service was quick as well! Great atmosphere and good people. Our fav was the Knockout Burger but a close second was the Hot Chick. The wings were crispy and juicy albeit a little on the sweeter side for a mango habanero. Over all loved the food and will be coming back for more!

“Highly recommended! Good food“

“Went with 2 friends 2 of us had Lychee Flavor, 1 had Matcha with Black bubbles. Prices a bit steep, but it’s not an everyday place. It’s for special events! We’ll go back!“

“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.“

“tried this place because I was around the area I usually go to liquid fusion in linconshire a bit further but always great, it was friday around 230pm walked in said hi nothing the guy took my order I said thank you nothing I mean I don’t want people to be extra friendly but okay wow ordered a almond milk tea with boba it was delicious but the customer service is lacking I felt like I was asking for a favor and bothering the worker there I don’t know if I will be going back“

“Try em all.………………………………….“

“AMAZING! Just moved to Libertyville and my girlfriend and I were wondering what to have for our first dinner at our new place…she wanted Vietnamese. I’ve never had it so was unsure but after reading some reviews was like “why not.” FYI it’s cash or Zelle only, they have an ATM inside.

I ordered the Bun Combo Shrimp & Lemongrass Pork & Egg Roll since I wanted to play it safe. It was delicious, tasty, and all the flavors worked well together. My gf ordered the Pho Tai, the broth alone was perfect. I was slurping it down just by itself!

This won’t be the last time we visit, we’ll definitely be back and can’t wait! Highly recommend, in case you haven’t figured it out yet!“

“So yummy! Love this place 🍧“

“I’m from NY and wanted some boba found this spot online and saw the mixed reviews. I got the brown sugar milk tea and coconut milk tea. The brown sugar is very sweet and I would say I have a relatively big sweet tooth so while I did enjoy it, it was slightly too much for me. 9/10. The coconut milk tea is also very sweet and has a strong coconut flavor almost like I was eating a raffaello. A new flavor that I took a chance on and was pleasantly surprised. The place was clean and the drinks were made quickly. The tapioca pearls themselves were hard and felt old so I would recommend skipping out on that.
TLDR; the teas are good and sweet for dessert, the pearls are not the greatest and I wouldn’t recommend. Overall 9.5/10“
