36 Best Bubble Tea in Austin

“The milk tea was perfect. I got regular sweetness and it wasn’t extremely sweet like most places. The waffle was amazing !! It was crunchy and the bubbles are perfect bite size. The best part about coming here was definitely the young lady who helped us. She was very sweet- the reason I’m writing a review. She was very friendly and I will be coming back because of her customer service.“

“This place is a hidden gem. It may not be the bigger names but the selections and different varieties of boba milk tea is good. Most big names uses store bought boba, Love bubble tea makes it fresh. I'm Chinese and I'm from NYC. It's boba central over there but when it comes to focusing on the product vs name brand Love Bubble Tea will delivers it.

I had the taro milk tea with jasmine tea, less ice and 75% sugar. The milk is very fresh and you don't taste the bitterness from the jasmine but you can still taste it. I really liked the fresh boba.

This place is underrated but worth going again.“

“O.M.Gosh! I’ve been searching for a boba spot that serves snacks and food, like the ones from my hometown of New York, and there are only a few in Austin. I finally heard about this place from my friends and it was 10X better than I expected ( and I expected a lot lol) ! I originally was going to stick with my normal jasmine tea, but I had to try one of their famous bubble waffles for the first time! I can’t even explain how amazing it was to have this ! I will definitely be coming back ! “

“Extremely delicious tea and fresh“

“I recently visited Sharetea in Austin and had an amazing experience! I ordered the Thai Pearl Milk Tea and customized it by replacing the boba with lychee jelly and pudding, opting for 25% sweetness level and no ice.

The drink was perfectly balanced - the reduced sweetness allowed the rich, authentic Thai tea flavor to shine through. The lychee jelly added a refreshing fruitiness, and the pudding gave a delightful creamy texture. This combination made for a delicious and satisfying treat.

The staff was friendly and efficient, making sure my order was exactly as I requested. The ambiance of the store was welcoming and clean, a perfect spot to relax with friends or grab a quick drink on the go.

Highly recommend trying this customized Thai Pearl Milk Tea or experimenting with your own unique combinations. Sharetea Austin did not disappoint!“

“Great service and even the cashier offer to bag my two drinks. I had a first great experience and will come back soon! ✌️“

“I came in the other day and Chelsea helped with choosing a great drink for my mom. It was a bit hard as I asked her if she can put a little bit of sugar but just enough to where it tastes good and she got my mom an amazing milk tea! 10/10.“

“This place is awesome! They have the BEST bubble tea in all of Austin! I’ve been going there almost a year and it’s always wonderful. I love this place :).“

“I was craving a smoothie, so I ordered from Uber Eats and theirs was so delicious!“

“Pretty good milk tea .I like iced mango milk tea and brown sugar milk tea.“

“Great place to have a good time w friends“

“My favorite boba shop!! The owners are so sweet and their boba drinks never disappoint ❤️ I come here regularly and I love reading a book here when I need some peace and quiet or just getting a quick drink to go please support them!!“

“Favorite bubble tea spot in Austin hands down. I love the simplified menu (though you can order off-menu too) and super consistent with every drink every time. Fresh great-tasting boba. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Highly recommend!!“

“Strawberry green tea with boba level 50% sweetness, just right! The green tea is potent, but balanced with the strawberry purée ?

The owners are always super sweet and welcoming. The shop is always clean, and nicely set up!“

“Contacted them via Facebook messenger about vegan and vegetarian options, they responded right away and I got a Forever in Love from menu with fruit and fruit jelly, and added housemade tapioca boba. Delicious, and great service! I will visit them again!“

“As a bubble tea snob, was skeptical about Gong Cha down in South Austin, but to my pleasant surprise, the tea was delicious and just the way I like it.

Got the regular milk tea with boba, full sugar (I like it sweet).

Glad there’s a competent and satisfying bubble tea spot in South Austin. Will be going back.“

“Adorable mom and pop boba shop! Perfect for UT students and families passing through. Great Vietnamese food and bubble tea. And they support local student artists with small shop setups in-store! Staff is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.“

“We bought the drinks here for the kiddoes. All were delicious. Fresh and fast. Place is trendy!“

“This is my boyfriend and I’s new favorite boba place. We’ve already been 3 times in the past week.

My personal favorite is the milk foam tea, cold, jasmine green tea 50% sweet with cheese foam and lychee. Once you get to the half way point and mix the cheese foam in, it’s like drinking a second drink!

100% recommend coming here and checking it out.“

“Delicious! My first boba and I loved it!“

“Service was great! Had a Double Purple with one of the ingredients gone bad but was smoothly replaced with another brown sugar milk tea and compensated with a good-tasting Double Purple. They care for costumer’s opinion and experience there.“

“This is such a cute, welcoming place! The staff is always kind and helpful and orders are made quickly. Definitely recommend stopping by here :)“

“Great tea drink options makes me want to try them all“

“Shout out to all the staff who worked last night and today. I left my wallet at their restroom yesterday and did not realize it until 1am. Came back to the store today and they were very kind keeping my wallet safe. My family loves coming to this store, the drinks taste great, affordable and we always get free drinks due to our rewards. Thank you to the team! ???“

“I've been to Gong Cha twice so far. Really liked my drink the first time, lychee oolong tea with mango popping pearls. Get the pearls. They're really good.

The second time I had their dirty brown sugar milk tea. My exact order was: a medium dirty brown sugar milk tea, tapioca pearls, whole milk, regular sugar, no ice. I'm putting the exact order on here because it was quite possibly the best pearl milk tea I've ever had. It was very creamy, probably because the no ice option makes sure the drink isn't diluted. The texture was just heavenly smooth. The pearls were cooked to absolute perfection. The tea and brown sugar flavors were strong, it didn't just taste like sweet milk as pearl milk teas sometimes tend to. It was just so delicious I had to review it.

The service could definitely be a little more friendly. They did their job just fine, but getting boba is just such a fun experience in general that having a stony faced server stands out.

The location is super convenient. Of course the university food court vibe isn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but if the boba always tastes like it did today, it won't matter anyway cause I'll be transported to my happy place on the first sip :)“

“On average quite good and usually fast. The parking lot is not well thought out and is scary but I’d do anything for that cute little red panda! Their blendeds are the absolute best on the south side. They have a lot more options than the other places down south.“

“Mogee Tea offers a decent experience for tea lovers, though it has some room for improvement. One major disappointment was the absence of mango green tea, a flavor I was particularly looking forward to trying. The menu, while offering a good variety of options, could benefit from including more popular choices like this.

The service was a highlight—it was impressively fast and efficient, which is a big plus, especially for a downtown Austin location. Speaking of the location, parking is quite limited, which could be inconvenient for some visitors. However, given its downtown setting, that’s not entirely surprising. The upside is that Mogee Tea is rarely too busy, making it easy to enjoy your drink without the hassle of long lines or crowded seating.

The drinks themselves were good, with balanced flavors and clear attention to quality. That said, the pricing felt a bit high for what was offered, making it more of an occasional indulgence than a regular spot for me.

Overall, Mogee Tea is worth a visit if you’re in the area and don’t mind limited parking or higher prices. Just don’t expect to find mango green tea on the menu anytime soon.“

“Took over the old Quiznos. Varied sandwich and salad menu and boba tea! Well made with fresh ingredients and a very friendly staff. Highly recommended for a good lunch or anytime you need a sandwich .“

“Taro blended 1/2 sweet with tapioca was DELISH! I want more!“

“Can’t say I was a big fan of the donuts. Tried a number of different options including mochi (which was hard like almost burnt). The glaze wasn’t
bad but they all had an oily aftertaste which is reminiscent of just other basic donut shops. Probably the glaze twist was my favorite as it had a nice doughy texture.“

“A great place to enjoy Boba with a friend.“

“Quality of tea is very good. I am not a fan of their "creamy" teas because they are a bit heavy for my preference but I do love their premium tea that they brew from the tea leaves with a little bit of added sugar and boba. There is a 2nd floor that you can read or hang out though the seating is limited.“

“This is our favorite sushi spot near us! The spicy tuna roll, you can never go wrong with. The tiger milk boba is sooo good! Staff is super polite and friendly. It was busy, which was a good sign. We normally DoorDash our order, but dined in today. We were not disappointed!

“Ordered pretty 1 of everything. Gyozas, fries and fried chicken tacos were soooo crispy and delicious. Pork belly tonkatsu had a very tasty broth. Tofu taco was super cute looking but the sauce was a little sweet for me so my husband ate it. Pork and teriyaki chicken were tasy but basic. Have a veggie bao and spicy pork bao along with the rest of the ramen saved for later. Staff was very nice and polite.“

“I love K-Bop's Bibimbap with Tofu or Spicy Chicken! With their kimchi on the side. Delicious!!! <3 <3 <3“
