    First time visiting this Bambu location. Parking is plentiful. Small shop with a couple of seats inside. Awesome Trio: red, white, mung beans, Taro, pandan jelly, coconut (4/5). Always a good combination of various beans and flavors. They seem to have a few more new menu items, which i would be interested in trying the next time, it looked like pandan and almond pudding.

    I love coming to Bambu whenever I'm craving che. Service has always been really good. The workers are very friendly and our orders come out super fast. My go-to would have to be the Bambu Favorite ($8.50). It has coconut milk with red tapioca, pandan jelly, and grass jelly. So so so good! The vibes and the decor in the store was also super cute and colorful. There was plenty of seating to sit and enjoy your drinks and also parking wasn't bad at all.

    Stopped in for an afternoon dessert. My date ordered the Mangonada Smoothie which is topped off with a tamarindo stick for an extra kick. I ordered the Fruit Addict dessert -- loved the refreshing combo of coconut juice, assorted fruit, coconut slices, and pandan jelly. You can customize most of the drinks on the menu so if there is something you especially like (or don't like) -- make sure to ask the associate. Indoor and outdoor seating is set up if you want to hang out for a bit.

    My go to for Vietnamese dessert. Fast service with friendly staff, this location is very convenient for anyone in the evergreen area. It has lots of parking available and is always clean with a light modern aesthetic.

    This is one of the two in the area. Lots less busy. Enjoying one of my favorite drinks. Nice ambiance. Only issue is they don't give napkins.

    We've been coming here for years so I'm surprised I haven't reviewed this spot yet! Bambu is my go to spot when I'm craving che (Vietnamese dessert). This location is small but they have a few tables inside if you're looking to sit and enjoy your dessert. They recently redid the decor as well. I almost always get #10 the Bambu Favorite--I guess it's called the favorite for a reason! It's so good with the perfect amount of creaminess from the coconut milk and QQ from all of the jelly. My family also really likes the smashed avocado one. They have a lot of other options including coffee and smoothies as well. Pro tip: If you're not digging into your order right away, you can ask for ice on the side!

    Nothing beats Vietnamese dessert from Bambu. They never miss and I go here when I'm craving Vietnamese dessert. They have so many options from viet desserts, to coffee, or milk tea drinks. During summer, they had mango sago too (never got to try bc they ran out). The service is quick, doesn't take more than a few minutes. I jump between the smashed avocado and the Bambu favorite. They accept Apple Pay and work with five stars to get you points for free/discounted drinks !

    Went here last Thursday with my mom and it has never disappointed me anytime I visit! Always been here my whole life so and it's the closest DECENT che you'll get around here. My go-to has always been the #10. Never goes wrong! The service was good, the drinks were good, and the ambiance was just fine!

    Dirty cup after I asked the workers to remake my cup.

    I went there and got four drinks, they're all good except for one. The one they messed up on was the red bean and taro. What they did wrong was mess up the taro and red bean ratio, there was a significant amount of taro compared to the red bean and took up most of the space. Naturally, the name red bean AND taro made me assume that there would be roughly half of both ingredients, and I know that no one is perfect but there was just too much taro. I wasn't very upset until I asked them to remake my drink because of their customer satisfaction policy. They refused and only offered to make half of the drink, but there was no fine text on their policy that said they wouldn't make a full cup. When I insisted for a full cup, they demanded that I paid when that also went against their own policy. Their customer service was horrendous and left me unsatisfied. When they finally made my drink, the cup was dirty and I gotten glares from one of the two workers at the front.

    Quick take: Overdue review I've been coming to this spot for many years. Very friendly service. Lots of customers coming and going even on a cold rainy day. My dentist is in this plaza. So as soon as my teeth are squeaky clean, I go straight to Bambu for some chè. I order everything that doesn't have mung bean. Today I ordered #10.

    Pic of the avocado shoved in the cup without anyone caring do at least mix it with the condensed milk.

Of their drinks on the menu, white champaca, white champaca oolong, dancong, white champaca matcha are the top drinks I cycle through.

However, I have not seen it on the menu since March. Hopefully they'll bring it back. They now have order online via their website (chowbus), and I recently learned that they have an app. This makes ordering drinks at this location easy since it is located in corner strip mall with minimal parking.

The interior is clean, beautiful, and smells like fragrant tea. I'm so used to waiting 30-50 minutes for drink at their other locations, like San Mateo. I had fully accepted my fate after placing the order, so I immediately walked back to my car to snack on In N Out fries. 5 minutes later, I got a text that my order was ready! There is a sign by the registers stating that drinks are best enjoyed within 15 minutes to prevent the foam from melting too much. I like how their employees ask if you want whipped cream on top of Snowy drinks when you arrive at the pick-up counter. I believe you can ask for the whipped cream in a paper cup instead and get a small package of pecans. They automatically do this for online takeout orders. The Snowy Jasmine is phenomenal! It's fragrant and floral, you can tell the tea is high quality and not watered down. I absolutely love the pecans topping, so unique and yummy. I used to think their super thin straw was just a gimmick, but the tea honestly tastes better through the small straw than a regular straw. 4 stars because the Tongmu Lapsang Bubble Tea is just OK, nothing special. Sunnyvale is one of the better locations and Molly Tea is a solid choice for bubble tea.

It's quite different from a typical boba shop, focusing more on fruit-based and creative specialty drinks, with several unique combinations that you don't see very often. This visit, I ordered the Avocado Snow Ice drink, the signature milk tea, and a durian drink. The avocado drink was probably the biggest surprise of the day. It tasted like real avocado rather than artificial flavoring, with a rich and creamy texture. The grains and seeds at the bottom added an interesting layer of texture, making it feel more like a dessert than a drink. The signature milk tea had a noticeable tea flavor and wasn't overly sweet, making it easy to enjoy. As for the durian drink, it delivered exactly what durian lovers would hope for--strong aroma, rich flavor, and a texture similar to a durian milkshake. The packaging also deserves a mention. The designs are distinctive and eye-catching, giving the brand a unique identity and making the drinks great for photos as well. Prices are a bit higher than your average boba shop, but the quality of ingredients and creativity behind the menu make it feel justified. After trying boba and tea shops for years, it's refreshing to find a place that offers something genuinely different. Not every drink will be everyone's favorite, but the menu is memorable enough to make you want to come back and explore more. Overall, a solid first visit, and I'll definitely be back to try some of their other specialties.
