Sorry to say that but the drinks from Boba Guys were disappointing.
All drinks come with boba by default. I don’t like boba so I ordered my drinks without it. Wish they could offer a discount for drinks w/o boba, otherwise the price point is high for a non-boba drink.
*Dirty Banana Milk
The banana coffee was so bad that I had to return it. It tasted…mysterious. Neither banana milk nor the espresso stood out. It was a weird combination of flavors. Can’t believe this is one of their bestsellers.
For similar price ($8+), I’d rather go to Not As Bitter. Their Banana Split is really good and I’m still dreaming about it.
*Strawberry Matcha Latte
I exchanged and picked their bestselling strawberry matcha this time. Thanks god this was so much better. It looked pretty, tasted not too sweet, while matcha and strawberry purée blending well with one another. However, it wasn’t good enough to attract me for a second visit.

The store smelled like clorox and there was hair in my drink. At least be clean if the store’s going to smell like a bathroom after intensive cleaning.

My favorite place for boba, their match boba is the best! Originally the store is from San Francisco, and typically there is a really long line to get in.

Enjoyed the drinks! I got the coconut coffee cloud. Prices were normal to competitors and other chain stores.

The drink is subpar and overpriced, and to add to the frustration, the shop's policy is excessively stingy. They declined to provide a bag for a drink I purchased, causing it to spill all over me and my clothes because it had a plastic cap instead of being sealed. Any bubble tea or boba enthusiast understands the importance of proper sealing to prevent spills. It’s astonishing how they make a simple bag seem like it's woven with threads of gold!
Customers should receive a complimentary bag with pricey drink takeout. Alternatively, the business could consider using some of the savings from cutting costs on bags to increase employee salaries.

Good options as well as make your own. Definitely a grab and go spot. Highly recommend the horchata ??. Also lots of dairy free options.

Kids were playing in the playground across the street and I was thirsty and we were waiting to get a text back for entry to a nearby store. Decided to grab a drink at Boba Guys. I got a lychee tea. It was okay, like other reviews, it was fine, nothing special. They made it quite quick.

Strawberry matcha is the best thing probably. I just didn’t like this one drink I forgot what it’s called but it had corn in it. Don’t even know why I got it but I don’t blame anyone. It was very busy when I went but you could tell the workers were very focused.
The employees were fine, the drinks were fine. Nothing special.

Pleasant surprise for such a tiny place. The staff was super friendly. They have a great variety. The only disappointing thing was they were out of so many things and are a bit pricey

drinks tasted like chapstick and artificial flavoring
This Boba Guys branch is on the smaller side and does not have any seating available. The service seemed a bit disorganized during peak hours, as our initial drink order was not correct. Nonetheless, the drinks were decent, and we enjoyed the pandan caramel boba with fairly chewy tapioca.
