32 Best Bubble Tea near Des Moines

“Excellent banh mi, hot ginger lemon tea, and boba tea choices. 5 stars!“

“We really like this place because they make the tea that we want. Honey Jasmine tea, les sugar, less ice, tapioca pearls.
This is what we go for every time. We come in every once in a while. We might get a drink with a lemonade base.“

“3 main things people look for: 1. Customer service: I was greeted with a very warm welcome from the owner. I was also taught a few things & given great advice on tea! 2. Product: Fresh tea!!!! Weighted tea is not only the most beneficial form of tea, but the overall freshness of the outsourced tea speaks for itself. 3. Cleanliness & Ambiance: Very clean & organized. The atmosphere is very purposeful. Makes you want to do a tea tasting to fully immerse yourself in the experience being there. No other tea room has customer service & products as need based as Serenity Moon Tea. You can't call yourself a tea person if this is not a regular destination when you're in the area.“

“Fun atmosphere with awesome variety drinks . What’s a spot to hangout with my besties“

“OMG, my husband and I stopped in cause we were actually going to Dick’s sporting goods a few other stores around the area, so we see this tea place (mind you I love tea) and my husband says “hey let’s try this” so initially I said no you go ahead and get your drink, I’m okay. So we’re waiting in line and the lady at the register asks if we want to try their tea of the day so of course I try it and it was so good I ended up getting one lol, my husband got his and was super happy. I think this is the best we’ve tried by far!“

“My favorite drink place in all of Tukwila! Love coming here for their sugar cane drinks. So refreshing :)“

“Ive been coming to this shop ever since they first opened up, and it is the best banh mi you can get in the area, at a fair price, and the drink options are phenomenal! They even have shake versions of most milk tea drinks, but its more like a thick smoothie, and the various drink add ins are always fresh, i have not tried their cane juices or anything besides the sandwiches and milk tea, but, no matter how long its been since my last visit, or who is on the counter, they always ask me if i want my usual order or not, and will remember to not include jalapeño even if i dont think to ask about removing it. I will continue to get banh mi and more here until i die, or the shop ends up closing, whichever comes first. This is the single best location in Auburn for both boba drinks and banh mi and their egg rolls and spring rolls will change your life!“

“flavorful bubble tea and lots of delicious Vietnamese food options!“

“The best tea shop in Kent by far. My wife, her sibling and I went in on a whim and were absolutely delighted by how good the drinks were and the friendly staff who clearly enjoyed what they were making. The Taro milk tea with lychee bubbles in particular was a standout. Support them if you haven't already!“

“Wanted to try one of their new releases and it didn’t disappoint. The flavor was there and it wasn’t too sweet, which I personally prefer. They have a self order kiosk which made everything smooth to order. The people making the drinks were cranking them out at a decent pace. I ordered and got my drink in less than 5 minutes.“

“Creative, fresh, addictive and very cool hipster vibe. My favorite was the horchata boba. Can’t wait to come back and try all of the other flavors. They all look so pretty. Also saw that they have cool board games and places to chill. Will have to take my date here. #drinkboga. 🧋“

“First time visitor.
I saw that the reviews for this place were great. Which led me to stop here for lunch. Tried the beef sandwich w/ egg & jalapeños. To drink, I went w/ The Honey lemon Thai tea🔥. Bruhhh This Slapps! Lunch Was excellent! For something simple! Price was Market Value. Great service!“

“Delicious fresh milk bobas, i definitely recommend any of the brown sugar drinks! Not too sweet, great presentation and just enough ice!“

“Bought Glow Tea again this year. And it was the best bubble tea at the fair!
The tapioca pearls were perfect and chewy, the lychee was tasty, the passion fruit tea was perfectly sweet and even had the seeds!!!
They had a self order kiosk section that was super convenient and when you did interact with witht the employees it was short and sweet.
And they turned on the lights when they handed it out to make sure people saw the glow!!
They also had Boa Box and I'm so excited to order both again next year!
Please come to the fair every year from now on! Best drink and food we had at the fair and definitely telling anyone to go there (also cute inflatable)

2 years ago review---Bought the Passion fruit Glow tea at the Puyallup State Fair and was extremely disappointed.
The price of the smallest size option was nearly $20
It wasn't filled all the way, had no sugar at all, I did order both the boba and lychee toppings and didn't say if they were extra or not and it was still bitter.
Customer service wasn't rude but they definitely weren't happy to be there.
It's been a week now, and I did take home the cute little lightbulb they give you.

I figured that's why the name Glow tea, no in fact a week after the fair we realized there is a little switch on the bottom to turn on the lights and make it glow pretty colors, it's really bright too! Super cool, it would have been awesome to use it too had we known.

The novelty of it was cool, but I don't plan to buy again when it didn't take good at all.“

“My go-to stop to fuel my mornings. Glad that this place opens early, I always get the Matcha Latte to give me that extra boost and jump start to my day!

I made sure to get her name this time, Roni is always so welcoming and professional, she makes the whole experience so much better. Pleasantly always answering my many drink questions, though I always end up getting the Matcha anyways.“

“I used to not go to happy lemon because I wasn't fond of the drinks, I went to the location in Bellevue I believe. But when I moved to this area , I thought to try it out again, I got the regular milk tea with pudding and taro balls. Really Good! They also had a strawberry cheesecake drink (something along those lines), super good! The inside of this location is really cute too! Happy Lemon went from one I never go to, to one I'd happily go to! Def come try their drinks.“

“Best place for boba. I try to get something different every time. Have not been disappointed. The right consistency of chewiness and softness on the boba. My favorite so far is the "Strawberry and Cream Smoothie"“

“To be honest I was hoping they would have black bean noodle but ilthey did not so instead I got a bowl of beef noodle soup. It was quite good, I usually get it from Mama Dough and I definitely noticed a big difference. This has more intense flavor (hot and spicy with a richer broth) and more meat as well as noodles. I've taken home their braised duck wings before and loved it. I've been craving more Taiwanese style food and will be putting this into rotation.“

“When I first walked in, I saw this sign and thought this was the source of their fame. Little did I know their drinks are DELICIOUS! I definitely will go back here next time I was a smoothie, lemonade, waffle, or any other surprise drink they've got.“

“Yummy chicken popcorn and boba 🧋 drinks are good!!“

“The orange dreamsicle is delightful.“

“Nice place…………………………………..“

“Incredible drinks, incredible people, and well priced. Every location feels like home!!!“

“Pricey as expected but pretty typical for a matcha and actually tasty. Really nice staff that were happy to customize with oat milk and just one pump of sweetener (vanilla vs simple syrup) instead of 3. Often you get green steamed milk with 0 matcha flavor. This was creamy and had a nice matcha taste. Nice location too in the less busy D21-D26 gate area as soon as you cross the hall. Great place to enjoy your drink.“

“Got the Blue Lagoon and Strawberry Seduction. I’m so picky with drinks, but these were so refreshing and aesthetically pleasing. Also, I’m not even exaggerating when I say it took under 60 seconds for them to make our drinks. I’m so jealous; I wish I could scoop this boba shop up and put it in my neighborhood. Also the girl with tattoos (didn’t catch her name) taking our order was so sweet! This place was clean and just good vibes.“

“I got the ube matcha boba with the swirl soft serve and the combo is soo tasty. My new favorite spot to go seriously. My cousin got a mango peach soft serve and it was ALSO SO YUMMY. It’s very creamy and smooth. My other cousin got a matcha swirl and that was nice as well but I enjoyed the more intricate flavors more. Overall I can’t wait to go again. So unique and worth the trip. They also sell doggie treats on the side and mug plus pens. All very cute and come support this beautiful business. 🤩🤩“

“I’ve eaten at almost every pho shop in the northwest and this is definitely one of the best ones I’ve been to.
Probably the top two!
The broth is so good and intense. I always get the steak of brisket with steak on the side and I like to cook it myself.
I also like the self serve condiment bar because I absolutely love plenty of basil, lime, and sprouts. And they also have cilantro, which made me very happy.

Will definitely be back many times if I can Help it!“

“Amazing sandwiches we always get the chicken and beef, sorry I forgot names. Flavor and presentation always on point and then we were offered these delicious boba and rainbow jelly drinks. I will go back everytime and when friends come from out of state this will be out first spot. If you’re on a budget and want to eat good and healthy this is the spot! Thank you to the staff for your generosity❤️“

“They make yummy doughnuts and have friendly/helpful staff!“

“I stopped by Double Wired Espresso and tried both the Pork Belly Banh Mi and the Traditional Cold Cut—both were excellent! The Cold Cut was spot-on: generous with pate and meats, perfectly balanced flavors, and the bread was fresh with just the right amount of crunch. The Pork Belly Banh Mi was equally impressive—the pork belly was tender and juicy with a satisfying, solid crunch that really made it stand out. Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for legit banh mi and great service!“
