Wanted to try a new spot, and we left pissed off due to bad service!

This was our first time here, and drove up to the window. Was greeted by a long dark haired Latina with tattoos on her arm. I wouldn't say she was the friendliest at first, and working there just seemed like a chore. We had questions about the drinks, and asked her what were her favourites. Told her that we didn't want anything too sweet, and she told us that all the drinks were customizable and can adjust sweetness levels. Asked about the pistachio blended drink and if they use real pistachio. She said it was a powder, and they use a vanilla cream base with salted cream in it. Wanted to order one, but asked her to make it 30% sweet. She then says that the sweetness level can't be adjusted on some of the drinks when she just told us that they can. We decided not to get it, and thanked her for her time. As we were pulling away in our car, she says out loud "what a waste of time". Saying that we wasted her time by asking her questions about the drinks to see what we were going to decide what to order. No, you wasted our time! If you had explained properly from the beginning, and wasn't so lazy with your answers, then you would have had an order from us.

I will never be returning to this business, and am glad I didn't spend any money here because of this sour attitude of this poor employee. I'm happy to take my money, time, and business elsewhere!

My only complaint about this place is that it’s too far away from me. Delightful drive thru boba spot.

This place is a treat that everyone is pleased to visit in my family. The drinks are made fresh and come with just the right amount of ice. Every item is delicious and the picture menu is helpful for ordering. I recommend stopping by here before running errands, or before/during a road trip

The drink itself was good. I brought my grandson to get a boba - it took 20 minutes to even place the order and no one was in line. It appeared that the boss was there and had a large order to fill - looked like 8 bobas for him to go. The whole time we sat there waiting. I would have left but I didn’t wanna disappoint my grandson. So we literally sat for 20 minutes waiting. Again- no one was in line in front of us. I think they need to work on their scheduling or something. It should not take that long in no line to place an order. Once we placed the order it took 3 minutes to complete. So it wasn’t the boba.

SO expensive and slow. There’s no prices listed anywhere. You have to scan the QR code in the drive though to find out how much something costs. We didn’t order a special drink just strawberry boba. Over $9.00! No fresh fruit or anything.

Pretty good boba tea. A number of their drinks are delicious, some not so much. The strawberries and cream drink is beyond delicious. I don't care for the Taro, it lacks flavor, mostly tastes like blended milk.

So refreshing on a hot Summer day. Great flavors and unique combos you don't always see at other bubble tea places. Will definitely be returning!

When it comes to bubble tea, I’m pretty picky but I have to say this place far exceeded my expectations.

I ordered the taro blended milk tea with red bean and boba. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the milk tea and boba. 10/10 on the texture, consistency, ratio and taste. I drank half of it before I got onto the main street lol I’m looking forward to coming back and trying their other teas.

The young woman at the initial window was friendly and made the ordering process smooth and simple. She made some great suggestions and comments about my drink order. I was pleasantly greeted by another person at the second window where I was given my order. Overall the staff left a positive impression from start to finish and earned a fat tip with the amount of work I saw them putting into the orders.

Place is easy to find and the logo is cute. I’d def check out their instagram if you need some drink option inspo.

I ordered four drinks: Matcha blended with pearls, Nutella Puff Cream Milk Tea with pearls, Strawberry Lemonade and Peach Kiwi Lemon Tea with green tea. I'm a big fan of Matcha and this drink was perfect on the ratio of milk to matcha. The Nutella Milk Tea was creamy and nutty. The strawberry lemonade was refreshing. I'm not a big fan of peach flavor but the kiwi in the Peach Kiwi tea was delicious. Drinks were reasonably priced. I highly recommend trying this place out!
