    The donut selections available for this week. They rotate out.
    Simona A.

    We discovered this place during our visit by using the The Too Good To Go app. We picked up our surprise bag which contained 5 delicious 5 mochi donuts: blueberry pop tart, strawberry pocky, churro, lemon cookie and chocolate bear. They were all sooo good! Additionally, we got a strawberry lemonade and the wintermelon tea. We both loved our drinks. The lady at the front was very nice and bubbly. The interior of the shop is beautiful and well decorated. If you live in the area or passing through, this shop has amazing food, drinks, and service.

    The establishment is cute. It was a definitely a different experience. I walked in, it was lonely, and someone yelled out to order off the kiosk. I didn't see anyone till I was handed my order. I got a few mochi donuts to try. Unfortunately, they weren't very fresh like others I've had. They also were a bit pricey. I get it, it's the esthetic that you're really paying for so no biggie. They have drinks as well but I didn't get one, so maybe I'll be back to try that.

    OG Viet Coffee to-go!

    Wow! Or as the kids say these days...FIRE. Hands down the best Vietnamese coffee I've ever had. I ordered the iced OG Viet Coffee (fitting :/) and was blown away by the quality, texture, and creamy goodness. It was so delicious I bought a 1 gallon to-go bag to bring home...gotta say, I was SO happy to wake up on a Sunday morning and pour myself bottomless iced coffees lol Everything about our experience here was top notch. Wifey and kids thoroughly enjoyed their boba drinks and colorful assortment of mochi donuts. Parking was a breeze. There was a friendly, energetic ambiance, and for a smaller space, I was surprised at how decorative and efficient everything was. Many IG photos were taken.. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and apparently we had just missed out on a Labubu giveaway?! I've never been a huge fan of boba, but it's great to see a unique business getting away from chain stores like Quickly. I hope this place flourishes so I can come back for my bag!

    This is my favorite place to get boba and mochi donuts in Livermore. I love that the mochi donut flavors change weekly. They have two kiosks to order from but you can order at the counter as well. Make sure to pick up a stamp card. I also love the floral decor with pink and gold accents. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Definitely family friendly as well. You can also find them at the Livermore farmers market. Looking forward to my next visit!

    Cute spot for grab and go or to hang out with your friends. I can't get over how gorgeous the decor is. I went with my kids on a whim, but I wish I went with my friends instead. I thought I was just going to run in for some boba and mochi donuts, but the vibes just made me want to stay. My kids were enjoying their playlist as well. I was greeted right upon entry. They gave me a little intro on where and how to order (kiosk), and told me they can help me if needed. I loved that they welcomed me, but also gave me space to decide and browse because there are so many options, and I wanted to try them all! I ended up getting the pandan vietnamese coffee and a strawberry crunch mochi donut. Loved that my drink was not overly sweet at all. I do not even recall being able to change the sweetness, but it was perfect. The mochi donut didn't stand a chance, I did not even get to try it because the kids demolished it. My kids don't just eat anything. If its not good, they will let me know and tell me they saved me some, so safe to say that it was delicious. Plenty of parking in the plaza, so that's a bonus! I'll definitely be back, and I'm bringing my friends!

    Super cute boba shop with tons of options with stir fried boba, chisu, pandan cloud foam, creme brûlée, jellies, and lots of Vietnamese coffees!! Service is super friendly and the shop is clean and modern.

    The Kid and her finds. Not only did we need to drive to Livermore but we had to hit up Bober Tea off Las Positas after. The only Bober Tea that has the cutest little surprises in their surprise cups. The staff were super sweet. The manager Monette was very kind over the phone as well. There weren't many of the keychains left, but they were kind enough to let us know that. But they will be getting more in soon!!! The labubus are so cute. The black tea was delicious. They were out of donuts but that's ok. The decor sends it over a 10/10.

    We were looking for Vietnamese coffee in Livermore and this was the only spot that popped up. The cafe has a lot of floral decorations and indoor seating. It would actually be a nice place to do a little work or catch up with a friend if the music was quieter. We tried the pandan, egg, and matcha Vietnamese coffees. The coffees here are good, not as good as other spots that specialize in Vietnamese coffee but we'll still be back since this is the only place that offers it. Their boba and fruit drinks look good too so I'll be trying those in the future! I wish they had a rewards program since a lot of the other boba and coffee shops I go to offer one. I'd definitely be back more often if they did!

    Bober Tea & Coffee opened in Teriyaki's vacated space. Infrastructure similar. New decor similar to all Bobers but not as pinkish. A few seats inside & outside. Got help from owner using new upgraded kiosk. Needed to navigate between pages to order. Got drink 5ish minutes. Offerings: Vietnamese coffee, fruit tea, milk tea, Brown sugar series, chizu series. Mochi donut, latte. Sips: roasted oolong milk tea (5.60) 25%sugar/ice. -nice subtle sugar taste. Not overwhelming. Strong tea presence even with milk. Persistent even at 25% capacity. No dilution of flava. -shown actual oolong tea leaves used. Not powder Bites: black sesame popcorn mochi (comped) -Yelp special for anyone willing to write a review. -mochi the usual chewiness. Popcorn interesting. -piece de resistance was the slight sugarness. Not overwhelming. Black sesame full flavored. Had friendly convo with owner re: products -coffee beans used directly soured from Vietnam. Got Viet covfefe with milk sample. Legit! -learned that actual fruits used, not juices in fruit teas. 5 stars worthy! Great quality/quantity May is Asian American, Hawaiian, Pacific Islander Heritage Month.

    My girlfriend and I discovered this boba/mochi donut shop when it was still called Bober Tea. We were a huge fan of the chizu series, particularly the matcha latte and milk tea. The workers there were always friendly and extremely welcoming! The interior inside makes for a very chill environment, great for studying as well if you are one to do so at local coffee shops. We haven't been back since the change in name so we hope that our favorite drinks there are still being made (and most importantly, taste the same)!

    I saw on social media that they had snacks here so you know my hungry self had to come try it out! I already knew their boba drinks were good, but sheeeeeesh! Their snacks are just as good! The popcorn chicken is hella good and the sweet potato tots hit the spot! Their mochi donuts are always cute and delicious. Has to be one of my fave boba spots!

    What a wonderful place!! Entering Bober Tea & Coffee | Mochi Dough already puts you in a great mood with the decorative space and flowers everywhere! This place is beautifully laid out and lots of spots for foodies and Yelpers to take pictures. Every wall will give you a different themed picture. :-) I visited during their soft opening. While soft openings are generally accompanied by hiccups in the ordering, serving, or payment process, everything seemed to run really smoothly. I wouldn't have been able to tell it was a soft opening, so kudos to the staff! We purchased a 6-pack of mochi donuts and got Vietnamese coffee for free. Price is on par with other similar shops. We got a variety of mochi donuts - black sesame, cookies & cream, fruity pebbles, churro, chocolate sprinkle and funnel cake. The donuts are firm but not heavy and very tasty. So far, I ate the black sesame once I got home and it was delish. We also got two Vietnamese iced coffees - the Egg Custard Cloud Viet Coffee and the OG Viet Coffee. The Egg Custard Cloud was so good. Pretty sweet and the brown sugar adds a great flavor to the coffee. I'll say the coffee is strong and you'll get your caffeine jolt for sure! Also had a chance to speak with the owners - Thomas and Monette - for a bit and hear about their year-long journey to realize their dream of owning this shop. They are wonderful people! Stop by and buy a bunch!

    Had to get more!!!!

    What a cute new boba + mochi donut spot! This place is very Instagram-worthy. I love how we can order at kiosks. There are plenty of options on the menu. I went with the wintermelon drink (highly recommend to my lactose intolerant peeps). It's also caffeine free so that's what my daughter gets too. You can select the size of your drink but also have cup options!!! The mochi donut display is super pretty- I wanted them all!!! They also taste great and have a lovely chewy and soft texture. Service was great- they cranked out orders quickly and you can see the big wok of boba right in front. There's some seating available and also a restroom. Will definitely be back soon.

When you walk in the first thing you'll notice is how open, bright, and clean this cafe is along with a friendly "ciao, welcome" from the owner. There were so many delicious gelato flavors to choose from but I ultimately went with the Amarena cherry flavor. It was so good and had the same sticky consistency of gelato I had in Italy. Turns out the owner is from Napoli, Italia! Many of the ingredients are from Italy. Their biscotti and lemon flavored were also great. I'll get those next time. In addition to coffee and espressos, they also offer Italian wines and beer. Can't wait to visit again!

The staff member was helpful and nice and let us sampled some flavors before we decided on one. The hazelnut was delicious, but we ended up getting a scoop of the almond.

Even when we were first handed the cup, it was already melting. That's the only thing I wished was different. This was my first time here so I could only speak from this one experience. Maybe it was just this day. Otherwise, we loved it!

The ambiance is cute with a small closed off glass area of wine and two seater table inside! Our waitress Dominique was amazing. She was able to give great recommendations for wines and food. She also made us feel taken cared of and was friendly/warm. The food is a mix of mexican/euro/american so there were a lot of different options. Here are the things we got: Appetizers - Parm crusted cauliflower: so good, nice and crunchy but not too heavily breaded. The chipotle mayo was delish - Chicharrones: so light and crispy! They were hot out of the fryer. It had a side of a corn cheese dip that was so good and made it more unique of a dish -- must try if you even kind of eat chicharrones. I don't generally like pork skin but I enjoyed it regardless. - Hamachi ceviche: this is a large sharing portion with chunks of hamachi and avocado. Good but not a must have. Entrees - Enchiladas: very cheesy and overall a good dish but I would skip this. - Shrimp tostadas: large size shrimp and it just comes with two tostadas so I don't think it was worth the price - Barramundi fillet: The fish was tender and juicy. I liked the marinades that came with it. I liked this dish with the rice because it made me feel homey. Good portion of fish. - Agua Chile Ribeye: This is a must have! The ribeye is sous vide so it was soo tender and juicy. The broth was really nice to keep everything moist and flavorful.

Range Life was one of those discoveries, and it turned out to be one of the best dining experiences I've had in years. I started with the Halibut Crudo, followed by the Sonoma Coast Ling Cod, and finished with the Milk & Honey dessert. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. The Halibut Crudo was fresh, delicate, and perfectly balanced. The Ling Cod was cooked flawlessly and paired with ingredients that complemented rather than competed with the fish. Then came the Milk & Honey dessert. Without question, it was the best dessert I've ever had. And that's saying something because I've enjoyed some incredible desserts over the years. The textures, flavors, and creativity came together in a way that was unforgettable. It wasn't just dessert--it was an experience. I don't particularly enjoy dining alone, but the food was so exceptional that it didn't matter. From the first course to the last spoonful, every dish had its own personality. The restaurant was lively and energetic, the service was attentive, and the entire experience felt intentional from start to finish. Some meals fill your stomach. Others create a memory. This one did both. I'll absolutely be back.

They sell a ham & cheese croissant, coffees, teas, lattes, and four flavors of Japanese shaved ice called kakigori, which is the star of the show. The texture of this shaved ice is like fluffy cool softness that melts in your mouth. It is different than the traditional shaved ice and it is far from a snow cone. We ordered mango and kinako (a roasted soybean flour commonly mixed with sugar). These are large desserts! It takes time to make them since there are fresh ingredients inside. The mango was superb with little bits of fresh mango buried inside the ice. Not sickeningly sweet like the syrups most places use. My husband's had little mochi pieces mixed inside. It is common to add kinako to mochi so this was a bonus and a nice surprise. The kinako dessert was sweeter than the mango. Please know that there seems to be no a/c in this little shop but she has fans going. We went in the late afternoon so it was really uncomfortable inside. I had to leave and wait outside until the dessert was ready. It's hard to take these home as it melts fast so we sat inside to enjoy them. It was like heaven in my mouth and it cooled me down instantly. You must be patient as it takes at least 10-15 minutes for her to prepare the desserts but it is worth the wait! There is a small parking lot right in front shared with other businesses. Located right off the freeway behind Burger King.

Another group with 4 people walked in about 15 min later after us with no reservations but they were seated almost immediately. The hostess did not acknowledge us nor said anything. Awhile after that I counted 3 different groups leaving - a tota of 8 people. We waited patiently and kept waiting thinking we would be seated. 20 minutes slowly pass by, then another 5, then another 5.. I looked over and saw two tables completely empty. I was literally outside the door after about 45inutes and my phone buzzed. Come to find out that they had 3 open tables available the entire time. The decor is tiki themed along with the drinks however the music playing in the background was jazz. Not sure how that fits the theme. Also, the drinks averaged about $20 and small bites and desserts ranged from $13-$20. I'm torn about wanting to return here.
