50 Best Bubble Tea near Kirkland

“Their drinks n pastries are unique that you won’t find it anywhere else. Definitely worth the wait!!!“

“Cozy and chic interior with a couple of benched tabled outside. They have board games too! Felt great to sit outside in the summer. Delicious boba with lots of options and signature drinks. Staff are typically young and very nice. Interior could use some decoration as it comes off a bit bare and very open.“

“Pochi Bubble Tea is really incredible every time I’ve been. They have diverse options and many substitutions available. The workers also have always been kind and even go out their way to double check orders. Whenever a friend feels in the mood for boba I go out of my way to bring them here and it’s practically the only place I go for a drink. Thank you to the staff and owner for the excellent quality and service!“

“I tried the matcha smoothie and added coconut jelly—such a perfect combo! The flavor was refreshing and just the right amount of sweet. The staff here are always super friendly and helpful with any questions I have. Great service and great drinks. Definitely coming back again!“

“This Happy Lemon location offers a great milk tea experience without the long wait. The drinks are solid—well-made and refreshing. It’s not too crowded, which makes for a nice, relaxed visit.

Overall, a good spot for milk tea, and I’d definitely recommend checking it out!“

“Love the Boba Tea especially with extra Boba🧋“

“Just had the BBQ pork belly . Everything fresh and quality of the sandwich is outstanding, served with smiles. Lovely spot for delicious Banh mi (baguette with choice of meat and toppings) for a meal. Plus they have delicious Butterfly sunset tea,Black milk tea, Thai tea and fresh smoothies … All my favorite“

“Ellen and her family are wonderfully friendly. Their food always hits the spot and reminds me of my mom's cooking. I highly recommend the beef scrambled eggs rice bowl and the dry fried green beans. The egg tofu is also delicious. You can't really go wrong with anything on the menu.“

“The owners are the nicest Chinese couple I’ve ever met! We were planning to get some fruit at a grocery store, but it was already too late. We went in this store around 9 pm, just to ask where the nearest open grocery was, and they kindly offered us some free fruit! We ended up buying a fancy yogurt bowl and left extra tip, but still, the amount of fruit they gave us far exceeded our expectations.

BTW, we tried the yogurt after getting back to the hotel, and it was sooo good! Totally refreshing! With a 4.7 rating and 250+ reviews, this place is a strong recommendation!

P.S. I know most people online are kind, but I’ve seen others take advantage of good hearted folks. What happened to us was unplanned, and we DID PAY EXTRA to show appreciation for their generosity. I sincerely hope no one will take advantage of their kindness by expecting free food or criticizing them for not offering more. I just wish that good people don’t have to suffer for being generous. Peace!“

“I really enjoyed GAGA tea! I went with my roommate and we could actually taste the tea flavor, which many other boba places are missing now. The cup is very sturdy and the environment was super cute. I would definitely come again! Only downside is the limited seating and lack of a bathroom :(“

“Third time being here and they seems to be consistent.

Good place to grab a bowl of dry noodle. The salt is my favorite flavor as it reminds me of bakmi back home. Their chasu is one of the best in the game if you compare it to Kizuki, Danbo, and Santouka.

Portion is also great. I reccomend following their instruction to use the vinegar and chili oil and adjust as you go. Definitely try it baked without anything first though.

It's self service. Order and pay through qr code on table or you can talk to the cashier.

The place is clean and simple. Nothing to complain about“

“very clean and nice environment customer service is awesome definitely recommend for family and friends“

“The salad bar is great, every smoothie I've ever had has been delicious, and the soup is absolutely worth a 12 minute walk each way in the winter. Plus everyone who works there is great :)“

“The line was out the door this weekend for their grand opening. We ordered a Thai iced tea, ube latte, crème brûlée latte, and a classic milk tea. All were great with no disappointments. The owner was very friendly, and the space inside looks very updated with lots of live greenery. We work close by so we’re grateful to have a new hotspot to go to for our boba cravings!“

“Nice little boba tea shop in the neighborhood. Came here on a whim and came away satisfied.

I ordered the roasted oolong with boba and cheese foam. The roasted oolong was very good, not bitter at all and nice roasted flavor to it. I got it at 30% sweetness and that was enough for me. Cheese foam was good nothing crazy but the boba was not the greatest. Kind of an average boba that wasn't very fresh. Still enjoyed my drink and would visit again.“

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

“MACU Tea at UW is easily one of the best bubble tea spots around! The fruit is always fresh, and you can really taste the difference in every drink. The service is quick, efficient, and super friendly, which makes the whole experience even better. It’s the perfect spot to grab a refreshing drink between classes or to enjoy with friends. Highly recommend! The owner Christie is so nice, too!“

“roast pork banhmi sooo good! drinks are on point so are the macaroons.“

“my little sister introduced me to this place, and i have never looked back. this is the only bubble tea i drink. i love their blended fruit drinks, they taste so fresh. their sago is chewy and my boyfriend likes their boba. this place is a 10/10.“

“Super yummy just need lychee popping!!!“

“We have been going for a few times now. It’s been great service with helping Ordering the menu. Fantastic food.“

“I am absolutely addicted to this place. I took some time to try 2 other bubble tea places nearby & they paled in comparison. The taro slushy & boba is probably the best I’ve ever had.

I also recommend trying something creative they’ve invented: melted brown sugar + boba balls, which makes a taro slushy next level. Highly recommend; come support a small, local business, too <3“

“Loved my visit here! The drinks were cool and refreshing, just perfect for the day. I was especially impressed with the beautiful decoration of the store—it created such a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. Definitely a place worth coming back to!“

“Love this TP Tea location! Their drinks are consistently delicious—creamy milk teas, fruity flavors, and perfectly chewy boba. I especially enjoy how flavorful and fresh each drink tastes. The store is small but cozy, and the staff are friendly. It’s a convenient spot to grab a bubble tea when you’re around UW.“

“This place has the best STAFF Team ever! I lost my backpack there, and I realized on the second day. I called the store and they told me they found it and kept it for me! I have a new camera inside, hundreds of cash, and a wallet with IDs! I was so panicked but luckily they found it and kept for me. I am truly grateful and thankful! AND, their matcha burlee and popcorn chicken is amazing!“

“What a gem boba spot! We walked by and stopped by this cute, clean boba shop. Very friendly kind staff and fast service. My hubby who is a boba snob loved the pearls saying they have satisfying chew. I got iced matcha with oatmilk and that was very refreshing without being too sweet. Would come back!“

“The drinks there are always great and the staff are super friendly. This last time we were there though the music was so loud that patrons couldn't hear their orders being called out. We ended up leaving sooner than we wanted to for somewhere quieter.“

“Spacious (bubble) tea shop in east Bellevue. The store has a heavy emphasis on tea, they have a large selection of teas, tea lattes, and also some classic Taiwanese light bites.

Today I got the genmaicha latte (no sweetener) and friend got the coffee milk tea latte. Their teas are more catered toward Asian tastes and aren’t very sweet. The genmaicha latte you can definitely taste the roasted matcha flavor, which has that more umami flavor. Would definitely recommend.

There’s plenty of seating in stores, and wasn’t too busy on a weekend afternoon. So it’s a good spot to meet friends and enjoy your tea.

Their drinks are on the pricier side though - tea latte came out to be $9+ with a milk substitution.“

“Their Taro Mochi Cake is the best cake I have ever had in the world, and I don't mean this lightly.

If I only had $11 left in my wallet and I was stuck between buying this cake, and purchasing groceries I would choose the cake !!“

“Spacious and great atmosphere. Fun and delicious selection of drinks. We got the Ube and Strawberry Milk teas. Both were great.“

“I was really pleased with the tea here! The employee working was also very helpful in figuring out what level of sweetness I’d like, since they can vary a lot from place to place. I got the spring milk tea, which was really nice, and my husband got the cocoa tea which was really excellent. It was a lovely blend of real cocoa and tea that was surprisingly well balanced and had the perfect level of sweetness. I’ll definitely be getting that one in the future!“

“This place is amazing!!! One of the only boba places that is open late on the Eastside. Their menu is full of variety and great options for people who want desserts. They also have desserts such as cake and shaved ice. Check this place out!“

“Love the Boba Tea especially with extra Boba🧋“

“We love this bubble tea cafe. Everyone is very helpful and the tea is the best!“

“Great tasting milk teas, just like in Hong Kong!!“

“Love and Deepspace collab!! We lined up at least 1hr before the store opened and there were already so many people! We managed to get placed 48 and 49, not sure how many collab items were available. The drinks were pretty good and the line moved quickly.“

“I went to the Yifang in Chinatown for a black tea latte❤️, also purchased a cup sleeve for $4.99, the service was real nice and friendly👍, highly recommend everyone to check it out. I heard there's going to be a Disney cup sleeve this summer, really looking forward to it!🥰😍“

“Ordered via kiosk, which was easy and fast, but you can also order at the counter. We had taro and earl grey boba tea, and a strawberry milkshake, all with oatmilk. All were tasty and the boba was nice and chewy! It took a while to get our drinks but only because we ordered multiple things and more customers came in immediately after us, and there was only one employee working. Not an unreasonable wait though!“

“(Food Safety Rating: Excellent)
This place is amazing. The first thing you'll notice before ever ordering is the superb prices. All boba drinks cost $6.35 (24oz is the only size). All boba drinks come with the option for 3 toppings and the drink is amazing. They also have an option to do a percent for the sweetness, which is a great option as some of the drinks can be quite sweet, and they have a good selection of decaf boba drinks. However, it is worth noting that they don't have an option for dairy alternatives.

Of particular interest to me, Seattle Best Tea is great for those of us that don't know a lot about the world of boba as they have signs and explainers posted on the walls in addition to the employee being very helpful. In addition the environment, atmosphere, and cleanliness in the café is top tier. (I would say second in the city only to Baceamp Café and Bar in Capitol Hill, a coffee café.) It's truly a lovely place to relax and unwind. UW Seattle Best Tea is truly one of the best cafés in the city and possibly the best spot for boba in all of Seattle.“

“Smells and tastes amazing“

“Randomly stumbled upon this restaurant while looking for crepes.

The crepes were good, but their dessert toast stole the show. It was very impressive looking and tasted great. I will be back!

Edit: Came back and had Bingsu (new favorite item from them), Egg Benedict croissant, and soufflé pancakes. Never had soufflé pancakes before so I expected them to be a little more fluffy like a traditional soufflé, but still good. Just a little expensive for pancakes.“

“I recently tried their new Orange Bitters Thai Tea - SO GOOD. It reminds me of a high quality mocktail that’s super delicious and refreshing.

I have also previously tried their regular Thai Tea and Thai Green Tea. Both are really good but I love how unique the Thai Green Tea tastes!

Love their drinks and will definitely return and bring friends.“

“I had Bubble Volcano, basically brown sugared milk bubble tea, and liked it a lot. The milk tea was silky, smooth, and lightly sweetened (my order was with regular sugar level btw) while the actual bubbles were pretty sweet, probably cause they were dipped and soaked with brown sugar syrup. I really liked the overall sweetness balance of the milk tea and the bubbles, and also liked the sample honey oolong tea, so would love to visit again to try other menus.

Heard the waiting line here can be brutal, but Saturday 11:30am wasn’t too bad. Waiting to order + order prep time total was maybe half hour?“

“Xing Fu Tang is more than just a bubble tea shop—it’s a fun place with great drinks and cool art by a young female artist. It’s also perfect for taking photos! Their Brown Sugar Boba Milk is my favorite, but the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Crème Brûlée is the real star. The caramelized top cracks as you sip, mixing sweet and creamy flavors. The boba is handmade, giving it a fresh, chewy texture. Their fruit teas are naturally sweet and refreshing, and you can add gold leaf to make your drink feel extra special. The sea salt crème foam waffle is a must-try! It’s crispy on the outside, soft inside, and the mix of sweet and salty of the dipping sauce is delicious. Plus, you can draw a number for a fun fortune when you visit. It’s a little pricey, but the quality and experience are worth it. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Definitely would go here again. Most of their drinks have pictures on their menu to help you decide. I got their butterfly pea tea with guava lemonade (N.E.R.D) which was very refreshing, I subbed the strawberry bits for crystal boba, but I would get it at probably 50% sweetness next time. The Mango Slush was also really good at 50% sweetness and was the better out of the two.“

“The monster boba is so good! It was perfect c❤️❤️❤️“

“I've tried a few different drinks here, and they've all been great. Some are a little sweet, so be mindful of that when you order.
There's a lot of customization options and plenty of combinations to try.
The bubble waffles are a fun little treat. You can pull them apart, and they even have dip options.
Sometimes, they are a little busy and don't have enough people to keep up. When they're in a rush, the bubble waffles don't come out as crispy, so they're best ordered when it's quiet.“

“Yantea really knows how to hit the spot. The grape slush was super refreshing and not overly sweet — like a fancy grape popsicle in drink form. The iced matcha latte was smooth, creamy, and had a legit matcha kick (none of that fake syrup stuff).“
