I love Bambu. Yet another place I wish was closer to home. My son and I are addicted to the fruit addict. It has lots of exotic fruits and pandan jelly but the red tapioca is where it's at. It's pieces of chestnut in tapioca and it's so delicious. This is my first time at this location and it's definitely nicer than their other location. Not sure if the price point reflects that too. It probably does. This one is more trendy to hang out at though. read more

BAMBU - 6. Fruit Addict - Bubble Tea Near Me - Garden Grove, California

If you need something refreshing and sweet, come here. Bambu Favorite is the drink that'll have you coming back over and over again if youve never been here. It has coconut Milk, Grass jelly, pandan jelly and red tapioca I might recommend asking for less sweet, but overall really good. Service is straightforward and efficient. The ambience is a mixture of French decorations and Asian decorations, but overall plenty of places to sit and get cozy. read more

Great service and yummy foods. Size to price portions are sorta ridiculous. The extra charges are a lot too. If you customize, make sure you get what you order! read more

My go to order is the yogurt drink. It is the perfect tartness level and goes well with the fruit option. The yogurt is very filling. Depending on when you go it can get crowded. The vibes are very homey. The service is also decent. read more

My husband and I got the Bambu Special less ice and 75% sweet and Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie. The Bambu Special is usually my go to. It's so refreshing on a hot day! It is coconut juice with toppings. In the future, I would get 50% sweet or less because it was still very sweet. The Strawberry Yogurt Smoothie is basically Vietnamese yogurt with strawberry blended together! The worker was attentive and friendly! read more

I tried this place for the first time recently and overall had a good experience. They have a fun menu with lots of drinks and desserts that are both yummy and interesting. Everything smells amazing when you walk in, and there are so many tempting options to choose from. The drinks were really good, and the açaí bowls, were fresh and tasty. The halo halo was absolutely scrumptious and definitely a highlight for me. The service was just okay. It wasnt bad, but it could be a bit warmer. A more welcoming vibe when greeting customers would really elevate the experience. That said, I am looking forward to going back and trying more items on the menu. The food and drinks alone make it worth another visit. read more

Bambu knows how to make these dessert drinks. I get extra shaved ice because I like to stretch out my drinks. Plenty of seating and parking. However, some characters that loiter around could be a bit annoying and/or scary so location could be an issue here. I usually get the Bambu Favorite so I can have the chewy goodness of all the ingredients. I also like their Thai iced tea. Service is quick and easy. Seating inside, very cozy hanging out. read more

1. The drinks were refreshing and not sweet! I really like the density of the mango smoothie! 2. The spot has fun casual vibes! It has a high ceiling! 3. There were many indoor tables! It was not too crowded! 4. The staff were friendly and timely with our drinks! It took less than 10 mins! 5. The front parking is small, but there are plenty of parking in the back area! Note: There is a restroom on the right side toward the back! Photo: Mango Smoothie and Cococane read more

One of my favorites place for desserts! They have a variety of concoctions for smoothies, Chè, fruits mixed with boba and milk tea drinks. The mashed avocado with durian is da bomb! Avocado mixed with all sorts of bobas and a scoop of durian into the mixture. Served with shaved ice and condensed milk! The Chè ba mâu(Tri color) is quite good as well. Not overly sweet and just enough hint of coconut milk within the mixture. Order at the counter and they will call when ready! Cute little place to sit and enjoy your dessert drinks! read more

I was craving some Pandan waffles with coconut inside of them. I decided to come here since this was the first place that came into my mind. I walked in here, and ordered what I wanted. Didn't take too long. Went back home, and did the dishes and laundry. They did it in a short period of time. They also informed another customer that the macarons were just out of the freezer so it's soft as long as you don't expose them to higher temperatures. The canvas pictures of the meals are genius, especially people who are visual learners and don't understand Vietnamese. The image is even enhanced for people to understand what the contents in their drinks are. They're labeled really good. read more

Used to go to Bambu in Irvine until it closed down. Stumbled on this place while in Garden Grove. Located across the Regal Movie Theater. Looks like a hole in a wall from outside but is actually quite nice and spacious inside. Decor modern/trendy with lots of comfy bench seating. Ordered my go-to #1 Special with Lychee instead of Longan. About $10 for a Large. Tasted just like I remembered. Sweet, refreshing, lots of soft green jelly, coconut, lychee, basil seeds, coconut water, shaved ice. They have a kiosk for orders as well but no option to sub items. No complaints. read more

Second time coming here. Absolutely great service. Drinks taste amazing. Nothing to complain about. Fast and easy ordering. Definitely would recommend if craving desert after a meal or for a hot day. Highly recommend ordering the Freshly squeezed sugar cane juice. (They do add some kalamansi juice) to it. Very refreshing and delicious. read more

I love Bambu and try to search for a location whenever I travel. Recently ventured down South for work and found this place. The decor is so pretty, plenty of seating and parking. I ordered my usual favorite, 3 color drink. It was delicious. read more

disclaimer: I am a fan of this Bambu location and have had wonderful past experiences with their desserts. I purchased an avocado smoothie on 6/28 and within the next two hours, I was vomiting, had diarrhea, and experienced severe stomach pains. I'm not sure what could have caused it - the avocado fruit, avocado flavoring, or the condensed milk? All three? It is of note the avocado smoothie was my first food of the day and I do not have lactation issues. read more

my friends and i were craving bambu and decided to come to this location instead of the one in westminster. the aesthetic of this location is extremely cute and clean. upon entering, we noticed that there was only one worker doing both front and back of the house duties. i ordered the awesome trio while my friend ordered #10. we waited around 5-10 minutes before receiving our order, which is pretty fast for a one man team. the dessert was delicious & i would definitely come back! read more

Walking into the place, the decorations are warm and bright. Beautiful decor of city and nature settings. Plenty of seating with bright colored booth seats. They have so many photos of the menu items that lists ingredients to help make a decision. We ordered #2 (Bambu Combo) and #10 (Bambu Favorite). The decision I tried to make was to avoid coconut meat since I'm not into coconut (but the milk is good though). You order at the kiosk and staff is friendly, we asked if they serve just the ice cream itself (since I saw mango and ube flavored ice cream) but they directed us to packaged ice cream in the freezer at the front. We ordered and got a number, sat down to wait, and once we got our order we decided to take it to go and explore a nearby Asian supermarket! The drinks were delicious, I very much preferred the Bambu favorite but both were great. Usually, after mixing everything, I would eat it with a spoon. But instead I waited for the ice to melt and used a boba straw to drink everything. read more

My review is based on the cumulative times I've been here but the drinks have always been pretty solid. However the staff is not always very knowledgeable about their drinks. This being said, their online ordering makes things so much easier. Would still come back though read more

This che thai place had tons of sweet treats to choose from. I ordered the Bambu Favorite with the red tapioca, grass jelly, pandan jelly, and coconut. I'd never had che thai before, but it's super similar to the Filipino desserts buko pandan and halo halo. 10/10! read more

I can't say enough good things about Kylie at this Bambu location. She is always so helpful & greets everyone with a pleasant personality & a great smile. What really blows me away is her attention to detail--she remembers that I always order a small acai bowl with no coconut & literally has it rung up the moment I walk through the door! While the bowls are my go-to, all of their other Vietnamese desserts are just as refreshing & delicious. The shop itself is fantastic. It's always spotless with great decor, a cool music vibe & fun food videos playing. Make sure to sign up for their rewards program to earn points with every purchase. If you want great service & a welcoming atmosphere, definitely stop by & say hi to Kylie! read more

One of my favorite dessert spots to go to! Bambu never disappoints. Upon entering, the shop is well-decorated and the atmosphere was cozy and charming, which made it felt inviting and relaxing--perfect for enjoying some delicious desserts or drinks. I got the Fruit Addict, and my boyfriend got the Taro Lover. Both were super refreshing and satisfying in their own way. The Fruit Addict was packed with a variety of fresh fruits, jellies, and coconut milk, creating the perfect balance of textures and flavors. It wasn't too sweet, and each bite had a fun mix of fresh, juicy elements. It felt like a dessert and a drink all in one. My boyfriend's Taro Lover was rich, creamy, and comforting. If you love taro, this one's a must. The taro was earthy and sweet, and the combination with coconut milk made it extra indulgent without being too heavy. Service was quick and friendly, and everything tasted super fresh. Bambu has something for everyone, from che, milk tea, fruit tea to smoothies, refreshers and so much more! We'll definitely be back to try more! read more

Craving for a typical Vietnamese dessert so we stopped by and got it to go. The menu has a lot to choose from and majority are quite good. Good service and easy going for order and quick turn around. The dessert is quite good and perfectly sweet. They do have tables for you to dine in and hung out with ur friends or family members. Clean place and easy parking. They do have other location beside this one, read more

Yes, all natural avocado smoothie, can be a little add more sweetness but the fact they don't use powder, were absolutely sold which keeps us from coming back. Service was always almost fast depending on how busy they are, although smoothie takes a while to make if you want your drink smooth and not chunky. The restroom is definitely nice and well kept. People do come by to study and hang out. read more

Another visit and this place did not disappoint. I usually get the same drink made with fresh coconut water and chia seeds. This establishment is clean and well maintained with plenty of customer parking. Service is prompt and friendly. A must if you are in the area for a quick snack and something refreshing. read more

It's actually really pretty in this cafe. Nice place to sit and talk for a while. Employees were nice and helpful, it may be a chain but it looks to be family owned. This was actually my first time having Che. We got one with taro and pandan, because I wanted to play it a little safe today with the combination. It was good, not too sweet, and pretty filling, making it easily shareable. I really enjoyed che and I wish we had it in San Diego. So if we're ever back in the Garden Grove area, we will probably be having it again. read more

Excellent options for a refreshing drink! If you're a coconut fan or you just love Vietnamese desserts, then this place will satisfy your cravings. My favorites are the Red Bean and Halo Halo read more

Tried out their Tri-Colored Dessert and it was just okay. The bean is not super creamy and I would expect a lot more in Little Saigon area. Also, I am a Vietnamese and still feel that their dessert is below my preferred sweetness level, so it is way less sweet than American standard. read more

I ordered the #1. I have ordered #1 since high school therefore I didn't change it today. The price increased but same thing with everything else. read more

1st time @ this Bambu location Been meaning to come here @ this newer location than the original one off Bolsa Ave. I Love Bambu especially their # 1 Bambu Special for the refreshing coconut drink Or the one I ordered today # 5 Smash Avocado When I'm actually hungry & want something fulfilling I suggest the smash avocado! It's really good w the bits of coffee jelly & boba inside. Using fresh avocado. Not overly sweet at all. Don't let the condensed milk ingredient scare you. Really cute Coffee Dessert Shop to lounge & hang out. Love the decor. Feels a bit like you're in Europe. The Vibes. Customer service was great & received my drink in a timely fashion. Pricing did go up. A bit on the pricier side for a drink. But avocados aren't cheap! So i get it. Located next to a smoke shop & a Halal restaurant. A decent amount of parking out front with plenty of tables inside. Will definitely return w my girlfriend's to hang out next time. read more

What's a stop to the OC without a stop at Bambu. Known for their amazing Che, my so and I got the number 6. I usually get the #10 but the number 6 has more fruits. We were looking for desserts after OC and lau and this place was super close. The space gave UK vibes and it had the softest most comfortable sofas to enjoy our drinks. It wasn't too crowded when we went around 7pm. The staff was friendly and gave us some recommendations from the menu. Overall a great experience and I would come here again! read more

You can't go wrong with the Bambu Favorite or the Fruit Addict. The Fruit Addict contains a variety of fruits mixed with coconut milk. The Bambu Favorite doesn't have as many ingredients, but it doesn't need to because the grass jelly is the star of the show. The decor is nice, and the service was great. There's a good amount of seating inside and a lot of parking too. The lot was pretty empty on a Sunday afternoon. Can't wait to come back to try their other drinks. read more

I always get the #6 The Fruit Addict. It's so refreshing and sweet and always hits the spot. I come here after dinner time and this location usually has fast service. I don't have to wait much to get my dessert. I also recently tried the pandas waffle and it's a 10/10! It was so hot and warm so you have to eat it right away. It does take a couple of minutes since it's made to order but it's worth waiting the extra time. There's plenty of seating inside so you can come here with a group of friends. Will continue to come here! read more

This is the second time we came to this location, after 3 years avoiding it. I think it's the couple, husband and wife running this place. We had a bad experience with the wife the first time. She was mean and nasty. ( but the husband is always nice ) . We came back this time, and we got her again ( ugh ) this time she messed up our orders. Sorry but no more, we are not coming back, ever. read more

I come in often to get acai bowls. I think it is the best comparing I have been to all the top places in OC. The Acai they have taste the best and right temperature .The young girl that works there everyday is very kind. The owners should give her a raise. Good desserts here too I like the smashed avocados. The spot is clean too read more

I didn't know about this Bambu location! If you want authentic vietnamese desserts then this is the place for you. They offer so many different dessert items on their menu (drinks and snacks). The place is so cute, cozy, and clean. My personal favorite would have to be the #10 Bambu's favorite. A popular dessert option would be #3 Awesome Trio (aka Che Ba Mau). I am give 4 instead of 5 stars because there was a girl working and it seemed like she did not enjoy her job and she was very "whatever" attitude about taking my order. The guy that was working was so kind and polite on the other hand! I would definitely come back to hangout with my family and grab a delicious Bambu's favorite (#10 on the menu). read more

Omg. They have a Bambu here in California?! I was so excited when I found out because it was one of my favorite dessert places back in Massachusetts!

The soothing music makes for a relaxing place to hang out and catch up with friends. My favorite drinks here include the #1 special and the #10. I'm not a huge fan of the other types of drinks besides the Vietnamese desserts. Customer service was good and the drinks came out quickly. When you're craving a boba drink... get this instead. The drinks are filled with different toppings and so satisfying. Stay thirsty my friends! read more
