Kung Fu Tea Overland Park

I’m very picky about my boba tea. You can do it very well and you can also mess it up bad. I’ve had some terrible boba and terrible milk tea. Kung Fu Tea, however, seems to always get it right. I always get the KF Milk Tea with 50% sweetness, 1x black sugar boba and 1x regular boba. Their Taro tea is very good as well. Pretty much any flavor that can be made at 50% sweetness is great. The boba is firm and not mushy. The tea tastes fresh and not like you stewed postage stamps in hot water like some places. The customer service is great and what you should expect, and the store is always clean.

Boba tea is probably one of my favorite drinks. The dynamic flavors, the soft pop of a good boba, it's a wonderful experience. Usually. This is the first time in which I was so disappointed as to what should have been a good experience that I decided to write a review, of which I've done less than a handful of times before.

I noticed something was a bit off while in the store, where I watched the employee take a rag which was sitting in a bucket of water next to the machine wipe of the entire cup 3 different times as the heat seal failed three different times and the drink spilled. I don't care about the heat seal failure, I'm sure that happens more often than we all realize. What I do care about is the health risks involved with a dirty rag being used to clean plasticware that people will be consuming food from.

She eventually got the lid on, and I figured I'd at least give it a try, as the heat sealed part didn't come into contact with the wet rag. This is when the experience went from mediocre to just plain bad. The boba was hard in the center, so either very stale or just undercooked. And it tasted disgusting, which leads me to think it was stale. Boba pearls usually don't have a super strong taste (for the plain ones), but these definitely had a strong stale taste. The tea itself also tasted off, with a flavor like old milk or something mixed into it.

Either way, extremely disappointed. I will not be returning to this place anytime soon. It's been 30 minutes since I last sipped on it and I can still taste that foul taste in my mouth, hence the decision to write this review.

I'm sure others have not had as bad of an experience, so I am by no means saying this is a regular occurrence, but even so, this shouldn't have happened in the first place.

Giving it a 1 star.
1) it smells like nail salon in there every weekend or everytime the salon next door is open. It's unsanitary and not a healthy environment for staff and customers.
2) Drinks are extremely sweet even @50%.
3) understaffed on holidays

I ❤️ the Ginger Milk Boba! It's fire 🔥! Warmth in the back of your throat on a cold day!

It's good solid tea. If you can get it without Boba and little to no ice, it's perfect. You get way more for the price.

great tea and boba! cozy atmosphere even if small!

Love this place!!! They make the best tasting boba milk teas.. In my opinion.. I had the honeydew milk tea and Thai milk tea. Both teas were so flavorful and mixed together very well.. They have a lot of drinks on their menu with plenty of toppings you can add with it. Oh also, it's the cleanest lil joint I've really been to.. I Will be visiting them again for sure! If only they had a drive thru 😅😂🫶🧡

Love Their Honeydew Mania, really good

The Oreo one is amazing!

We went there to try the boba tea. The service was good. I had the honeydew milk tea. The taste was good. I had gotten the smallest amount of sugar. The drink tasted like it was 75% sugar. It was extremely sweet. I tried my kids strawberry slush and it was also extremely sweet and it o er rode the flavor of the strawberry drink.

Up there with the best boba around. Very nice storefront too.

decent spot for boba tea. All the traditionally flavors can be found here but everything just seems to lack the authentic touch and was more commercial/chain like. The drinks were still pretty flavorful, just be sure to ask for less ice and sugar as we did find the regular to be super sweet for our tastes.

I went in not knowing what I wanted and left very satisfied. Dinah is the one who helped me and she was very kind and helpful. She made me the best drink I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be going back. Thank you!
