40 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.“

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

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

“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!“

“The grape cheese foam drink is my favorite boba drink in Federal Way, I usually hate grape flavored anything but decided to try it since I've never seen grape flavored drinks. I don't regret it, it's super yummy. My sister got the strawberry frostie with cheese foam, also a great choice!“

“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!“

“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. 🧋“

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

“By far, the BEST vietnamese coffee/boba fusion in Washington!! All of the drinks were delicious and flavorful. My family loved it and we will be coming back! My favorite was the Ube one! The only downside is it is more expensive than regular boba places. In addition, the quantity is definitely a lot less considering it’s in a “can” style cup.“

“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"“

“I had a surprisingly good oat-milk latte here and a delicious musubi which was served hot from the warming case. While I am not a fan of bubble tea, ube or matcha, this hidden gem serves up legit asian flavors we are blessed to enjoy here in the northwest.“

“The orange dreamsicle is delightful.“

“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.“

“Our first time here and have heard a lot of good things before. We ordered the popcorn chicken bento and the pork chop bento. Super delicious and everything is made fresh to order. Meat portions are very generous too! We ordered two bentos to share amongst three people and couldn’t finish! Will definitely come back.“

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

“Nice place…………………………………..“

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

“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’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!“

“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!“

“This is our favorite place for popping Boba smoothies. Everyone is always nice. The other place upstairs in the mall charges the same price for smaller smoothies. I got the black tea with strawberry popping Boba and it wasn't good. But the smoothies are great!“

“Great banh mi place with a good drinks selection. I've been here before and gotten several of their sandwiches but prefer their BBQ pork one! Their Vietnamese iced coffee is strong and I loved it.“

“A great local business with the fun gimmick of serving your teas and drinks in glow up lightbulbs. Not once have I encountered poor service at this location, nor subpar drinks. The smoothies are great, as are the Boba options.The price can be a slightly high, but considering the quality of the drinks and the fact you can refill the lightbulb at a discount, it can actually become rather affordable if you plan on returning, something I highly recommend doing!“

“Sharetea Tukwila never disappoints! The drinks are always on point — refreshing, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. The staff here are genuinely kind and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. The cozy vibes and clean space make it a perfect spot to chill, study, or hang out with friends. If you haven’t been here yet, you’re missing out! Treat yourself today — you deserve it!
Highly recommend their classic milk tea with boba!
10/10 experience every time!
**✨🧋Come by and try it out!🧋✨“

“What a delightful family restaurant! They were so conscientious about my spouse’s dairy allergy and were very diligent making sure all the ingredients were dairy free. Plus, the sandwiches were delicious and so was the boba! Highly recommend

Vegetarian options: Lots!

Dietary restrictions: They are SO conscientious and understanding of allergy needs and vegetarian and vegan diets! Awesome!“

“The strawberry and cream cheese croffle is amazing. You can’t go wrong with either the strawberry or Oreo bingsu either. Every single macaroon is amazing and is double the filling of a regular macaroon. The flavors are fun and they all look too cute or pretty to eat. All of the signature drinks are to die for and the teas are spot on delicious!“

“We been coming here for years🙏✨️ very clean✨️ and staff is kind Respectful everything in the menu is so rich in flavor an just right my go to is pho veggie, gyozas , and a strawberry🍓 smoothie is a family go to for us so tha k you for making every time so delicious and great experience totally recommend✨️✨️“

“When COVID had us all in quarantine Happy Lemon kept me sane! At one point I doordashed daily! They were my happy place in a cup! Still is my happy place! Always a treat when I need a pick me up. Staff is friendly and adorable! Love watching the staff make drinks and bubble waffles. This is the only Boba spot that does it right in my opinion. I was obsessed and addicted. Still might be, I just dont visit as often as I used to.“

“Sharetea proving yet again it’s the GOAT! Great quality strong black tea, flavorful toppings. Also, incredibly customizable. The non-dairy milk is also a nice touch, if you’re lactose intolerant like me. I think all of the bad reviews are from people who ordered some atrocity like Thai iced tea (which is fine by itself) but with 100% sugar and 20 toppings, and then were surprised when it tasted bad.“

“Had the absolute best drinks there! Beyond thankful for the recommendation I received that brought me here. The employees were pretty slammed with orders but were so kind and worked quickly and efficiently to get us our order. Now more than ever, I understand patience is key and honestly so much more necessary than most believe. I comment the team at Mia and More for filling our cravings. Would absolutely visit again and have already recommended to others.“

“Very reasonably priced bahn mi. Good crunchy bread and fair portions. They dont skimp or overstuff.

This is more of a to go spot.

Nice menu and nice peeps. Have a large tea menu too.

Would have preferred a more authentic grill taste. But thats just me.

This is in the middle road of bahn mi with room to keep growing.

Would like to see a standout bahn mi here but i would definitely go back.

I am a bahn mi critic so keep that in mind.

I say go try it out. Its good and cheap on the go lunch breakfast or dinner.“

“Exceptional service- they were super helpful with all the questions that I asked as I’ve never been there before. I knew I wanted something refreshing, but not too sweet and the guy helping gave several recommendations. I ended up LOVING what I got. It was just what I was craving! I got the passionfruit tea with Boba, medium sweet. Highly recommend!“

“Avocado Smoothie!☆♡☆ Passion fruit smoothie!“

“Dropped in on my way home from work. I'd never been in before and had never heard of the place. I like to try new things and was pretty hungry, so I decided to give them a shot.

No regrets here.
I've never heard of, nor ever had Takoyaki before but I was hooked from the first bite!
I'll absolutely have to come back here for more!“

“I love coming to Happy Lemon in Federal Way! The drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and consistent. The staff is super friendly, quick, and welcoming — they really go out of their way to make sure customers have a great experience. The store is clean, bright, and has a fun vibe. My personal favorite is the salted cheese green tea, but everything I’ve tried has been delicious. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving boba or just want a refreshing treat!“
