Best place hands down. Went there today and only had 6$ whilst my order was 6.30. I had asked for a medium and ended up getting a large with no extra fee. And not to mention how fast it is made. Nicest person I met today. 100% recommend to go here.Kid-friendliness: very comfy and cozy.

There are large varieties of drinks and toppings, with the flexibility to customize flavors as requested. The space was nicely decorated and well lit, and the staff was extremely kind and patience.The menu was a bit overwhelming and was, at times, unclear in regards to some of the signage in the front window, but I was extremely happy with the pineapple coconut smooth I received, and the coconut jelly topping was also highly enjoyable.I will definitely be going back next time I am in the area.

They are always closed on the weekends and every time that I have chemo treatments and it’s the middle of the day in the week or weekend and there’s no reason for them to be closed when they’re so good.

My friend got a mango fruit tea with popping Boba and loved it. I got a black brown sugar Boba, and I think I would’ve loved it had I gotten less sweet as it was overwhelming. Definitely one of the better options in the area, the service was great. Locally owned would recommend checking it

I just got green milk tea; it was made promptly, and the service was very nice. The tea flavor is actually quite good, nice blend of milk and tea. And the pearls are soft but not too squishy. The place had cozy and inviting atmosphere as well. Overall, would recommend! Great prices too.

I came here around 6:30pm on a chilly winter evening and the employee was very welcoming and genuinely friendly. I ordered a taro milk tea with tapioca/boba, and with 50% sugar and ice it was so, so tasty, with a nice rich flavor. I’d certainly go back.

Pretty disappointed with artificial flavors for mango and dragonfruit. I hope they use better ingredients. Friendly staff so they get 2 stars. Not good drinks. Very sad

A really great boba place around BU campus in a bit of a hidden spot. Very friendly service and they have a customer rewards program! Ask for a rewards punch card. Buy 10, get 1 free!There is a huge variety in flavors and the tea is not too sweet. Most medium size drinks are around $6 with boba included, so it's a relatively affordable treat.

I love the bubble tea at Boba Tea and Snow Ice House! I usually get the milk tea with black pearls. The sweetness level was just right and the pearls were chewy. They have a wide range of toppings, from grass jelly to pudding to passion fruit pop. The price of the toppings range from 70 centers to $1.25 and the drinks range from $4.50-$6.25 Not only do they have bubble tea, they also have egg waffles, macarons and mochi ice cream. Snow Ice House is located right by BU on Comm Ave and is easily accessible by the green line. Overall rating: 10/10

Although not on comm ave, this is still a prime location for a boba & dessert shop especially for BU students. Right by Amory st, bubble tea, smoothies, macarons, and shaved ice awaits. I've gotten milk tea, avocado & Thai tea smoothies all of which have been good. I wouldn't say it's the best I've had, but it satisfies the boba craving. It's not a big space, but there are a couple of tables looking out if you want to hang out with friends for a bit. They have a decorative grass wall that's great for taking photos. I know I'll be back to try out the shaved ice once spring rolls around!

Super friendly service, delicious tea, prices comparable to other boba tea places. We went in person and didn't have to wait at all. I think it's the best place within walking distance of BU, will definitely be going back often

can't find mango green milk tea anywhere else I've been to in Boston and this place satisfies the craving every time!
