They're closed. When they said they're open. Kinda annoying cause I drove out of my way to come by for some drinks. Looks like they're out of business or closer permanently. read more

Service is great, it's just definitely the product that isn't too great. The menu is expansive sure but it's not going to be something I would regularly feel okay spending $7+ on when there are better options out there that use premium products. The boba itself is way overcooked and offered no bite back, just mush. read more

Boba Garden - Sakura with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Fresno, California

We got the Jasmine butterfly milk tea, lychee yuzu Thai tea, strawberry lemonade butterfly tea. The strawberry lemonade was too sweet so they made me a jasmine butterfly milk tea. They were quick and flexible which I appreciated. There's plenty of seating here too. They have a restroom. There's a parking lot so parking is quick and convenient. read more

Friendly and helpful staff. Lots and lots of options on the menu. I especially appreciated the lactose free milk availability. I forgot to ask for less sweet, but even still I was surprised that it wasn't grossly over-sweet. I got the dirty hokkaido and subbed for regular boba instead of coffee jelly as I'm not a huuuge coffee fan. The flavor was great and I enjoyed the balance of coffee to tea. The shop was nice and I liked that they had board games to make for a fun hangout spot. I'll be back to try more of the menu. read more

[Review #740] 2023-026 Drinks Order: BROWN SUGAR BOBA MILK with BROWN SUGAR HONEY BOBA, LYCHEE BUTTERFLY LEMONADE with CRYSTAL BOBA, WATERMELON LYCHEE FRUIT TEA with RAINBOW JELLY I came up over Independence Day weekend to visit my aunt. Instead of our usual dim sum restaurant, we went to her back-up Vietnamese restaurant for some noodles & bánh mì. It was hot, hot, hot, so of course, we had to cool off with some boba, & Boba Garden just happens to be across the street. I bypassed the restaurant's boba drinks due to taste & execution issues. BG is located in The Shaw Marketplace, south of Chase Bank between Quest Diagnostics & Cosmo Prof, off Shaw Ave.; still in its soft opening, the shop doesn't have permanent signage yet. Inside, the dining area is bright & spacious with a table full of games to entice patrons to relax & hang out, hopefully buy more drinks. There's a nice wall mural & bench for pics to help market their brand; I think they should update it with some flowers or succulents to showcase a garden theme to tie-in with their name. To further enhance the sit & drink experience, free WiFi is available (current PW: #bobagardenfresno). From a marketing standpoint, the location isn't likely to draw a lot of traffic & it's not anchored with restaurants that may have customers stopping by for a dessert drink. Instead of my usual order of multiple drinks, I thought I try one before I buy more & ordered from the creative series: brown sugar boba milk with brown sugar honey boba (think tiger milk tea). I didn't change the sugar or ice level... the drink was well-made with sufficient serving of boba, cooked to al dente with QQ chew; however, boba flavor is slightly muted, barely tasting the brown sugar & honey. With 100°+ weather, this milk tea was refreshing & perfect counter to central CA's summer heat wave. Menu is standard: creative series (which includes toppings), smoothies, matcha series, slushies, coffee series, fruit teas, milk teas, macaron ice cream, croffles (croissant + waffle), snow ice; toppings are 75¢. The base price points are higher than South Bay, which I can still get a drink between $5 - $6 with or without toppings, pending on the boba shop. Creative & matcha series comes with toppings, assuming the topping complements the drink, not sure if substitution is allowed or if there's a surcharge for substitute if allowed. Closer than our preferred boba shops, Boba Garden cultivates a decent menu with slightly higher pricing, though seemingly competitive in the area, that will grow on you. Recommended: Brown Sugar Boba Milk with Brown Sugar Honey Boba. read more

This Boba spot is deliciously good, the tapioca is one of the best I've had so far, it's soft and smooth. My daughter loves boba, we've tried most of the best spots in Fresno/clovis. Hands down, best are the AC Deli bobas, "the banana one " and rare tea is really good, also Boba pub (but this one i might just be bias since it's by State , Go Dogs) It was our first time at this location (since I have a nine year old and the shop two doors down its a smoke shop , but overall area wasn't to bad) . It's super cute inside, they have a cute white bench to take pictures In front of their big backdrop. The service was good too, she was nice, would definitely come back , despite the area. read more

Went here on a Sunday- 1 person was working. 6 people ahead of me with orders already placed. Took nearly 20 mins, which I get but was quoted 5-10 mins. Ordered a Thai tea, no boba. Order had boba in it and was very bitter. The boba was way too chewy/hard. Won't be back read more

Happy to have a new spot for yummy drinks and snacks So excited I found mini mochies.. tried these last when I was out of town and can't find them anywhere. Crowaffles!! what?! so flaky, light and a hint of buttery sweetness. I opted to go with a side of condensed milk.. WOW This place has a chill vibe, very clean and cozy. A little game corner to pick board games from to hang out with. Will definitely come again. read more

One of the newest Boba business that popped up in Fresno. I ordered during happy hour, so it's buy two get one free. I got the Hokkaido milk tea, matcha milk tea, and wintermelon milk tea. The Hokkaido was great, very strong tea flavor and was aromatic. The wintermelon milk tea didn't taste quite like wintermelon but more like a house milk tea. Not too crazy over the matcha milk tea because it lacked matcha flavor, it was too milky. All drinks can be modified with level of sweetness. The establishment is very neat and clean. I like how simple the decro is. Very spacious and have plenty of seatings. The owner was very friendly and nice. She was the only one working at the time and my milk tea came out at a timely manner. Definitely room for improvement, I'm indifferent about the drinks. Will review again when I go back :) read more

My fiance and I came here through some good yelp advertising! We're kind of creatures of habit but decided to try somewhere new for a change. They had a promotion going on for the month of December-- buy 2 get 1 free. We didn't need 3, but why not? We ordered a strawberry matcha, melon, and peach green tea. While the boba was very good & well cooked boba, the flavors were hit or miss. Strawberry matcha (3/5) was too sweet as its not fresh fruit rather a puree/syrup. I ended up leaving it overnight for the ice to melt, and it was much better the following day. The melon (0/5) is a light green melon reminiscent of melona ice cream bars or hi-chew. This was a step above the sweetness of the strawberry matcha, and tasted very artificial. Unfortunately, we didn't finish this one and threw it out. The peach green tea (4/5) was the right amount of sugar with moderate peach flavor. I would probably give Boba Garden a 2.5/5 based on the drinks we ended up with, but the staff was incredibly helpful with explaining the flavors to us and the store was very clean and well-designed. However, I prefer more fresh fruit forward beverages. The price point is about $6-7 per drink with one topping (e.g., boba) added. read more

The ambiance in this shop is very cute and there's board games available if you wanted to come by with friends. I ordered the Hokkaido milk tea with 0% sweetness and it was super good! It did still taste a bit sweet but as someone who doesn't like overly sweet drinks, I enjoyed it! I saw they make it from a powder which probably has some sweetener included. The tea reminded me slightly of the taste of black tea with oat milk, which I enjoyed but others might not. Service was quick! read more

This place is fairly new I think. I haven't seen it here before but it's a perfect spot! It's right by the ramen vs pho and the GameStop. You can make a day of it! We went to GameStop and I had a hankering for something sweet. We stopped in here and saw a few sweet treats. I landed on the croffle with strawberry cream cheese. I thought there was gona be strawberries on top. There was not. But that's okay because it was totally delicious and different. It's a regular croissant but put into a waffle iron. It comes out super crispy and hot with powdered sugar and the cream cheese. It was legit. They have plenty of seating and fun games to play while you sip and munch. read more

I've been here twice and they've run out of boba both times. They said it would be a 25 minute wait for my drink. Not great for a place with boba in the name. read more

Love this place! It's super cute and everyone there is so sweet! The taro milk teas are so yummy! Go here ASAP!

I love boba so I was very disappointed to taste this. I tossed it out after one sip. The milk tastes bad/stale. It doesn't come with boba pearls, which makes me wonder why they call it boba? I should have walker out when I saw that no one was in the store but I ordered this $6.25 boba, which was a disappointment. read more

Stopped in for a Dirty Thai tea with grass jelly and noticed they had spring rolls. They're made fresh to order I got 3 of the pork sausage and they come with 2 different sauces a house sauce and peanut sauce they were both so good and for only $11.50 plus some tax. I've never had spring rolls like this they have a nice crunch and super light and filling lunch. The staff was super friendly and helpful when ordering and the place is nice and clean read more

I truly enjoy t here boba, but the posted opening times are incorrect. It clearly stated that the place would open at noon, yet when I arrived, it was still closed. I returned at 12:30, and it remained shut. There was someone inside, but they failed to communicate with us. This has happened multiple times now, and it's time for a change. read more

Good boba, ordered the banana drink which I didn't really like the taste. Don't think it was made wrong just didn't like the flavor. So I apologized and asked if I could pay for a different drink instead and the employee kindly replaced my drink free of charge. I got the taro and it was perfect. read more

Got a coconut flavored boba that was not fully blended more of an ice drink smh need to do better double blend it or something

Stopped by with daughter since our usual place was closing for the day. Looked up Yelp for a boba place near me and gave me this establishment. Very clean, friendly staff, and place is welcoming. Next time daughter and I will have our drinks there. read more

Everywhere says the place opens at 12 but no one opened the door until after 1 and the reason was they didn't open until after the boba was done cooking because people will leave....people will also leave if they show up to a place that is supposed to be open and it isn't so the logic isn't there. And not everyone gets boba, if you can't open fully until boba is cooked then change your hours permanently or come in earlier to make sure it's cooked before you open. First time I came here I got a banana milk tea with the jasmine green tea and I really loved it. However when I got it today it was bitter and medicinal tasting. It taste like it didn't have any of the banana flavor and tasted like it was only jasmine milk tea and on top of that the jasmine tea tasted like tea that had been brewed yesterday and used today, it is really hard to achieve a tea taste that bitter with fresh made tea. read more

First time coming to BobaGarden the service was great. We were greeted with friendly service. Today me and my family came for the second time and we were never greeted. There were two young ladies up at the front. Never said hello or welcomed in. It was just my family and me at the time, besides the two workers up at the front. They just looked at us and we're also talking to one another. The least you can say is hello, welcome in. Made it awkward and they seemed standoffish. Definitely bad for business, hope that improves. Even my husband noticed and made a comment to me. Not sure if we will return or not. read more

I love myself some good boba BUT, so I was in this part of town and decided to drop by to check out this place. It was on a weekday, around 7PM in the evening. Storefront: Looks normal, but it wasn't busy. There were no customers, only 1 employee working, not complaining but when a boba place isn't popping, it's a red flag. Service: I was the only customer there so, no complaints here, fast service. Drinks: Have the normal selections, you can view this on their menu. I ordered 4 different drinks. 2 fruit slushy (mango & watermelon) + boba, 1 Thai Milk Tea + jelly, 1 oreo cookie + boba type of drink. This store only have 1 size and add-ons (boba) are extra. Flavor: Seems like the powder or artificial powders that are used in the slushy has a weird after taste, not in a good way. Other boba places around town has this too but just not as strong. Watermelon: taste like water with a slight watermelon flavor. Sugar level was very little. Please do not order this drink. Aftertaste is still present. Threw it away, drank 10%. Mango - compare this one to the watermelon, it's 100% better. Sugar level was on point, not to much or to little. Aftertaste is still present. Threw it away, drank 50% Thai tea - OMG, I am a huge fan of this drink when it is done correctly. This is a huge failure. This should be re-name to just a Tea, because that is all I taste. Please correct the recipe. Threw it away, drank 50%. Oreo cookie - This is the winner of all of the drinks. Tasted similar to what the other boba place around town makes. No complaints here. Drank all 100%. Boba - The boba are small and the quantity is small compared to the other boba places in town. Flavor of the boba is off too, way to soft and not sure what sweetener was used to flavor the boba. Will I return: There is no way I will be returning to this boba place, even if I was paid to. read more

First time trying Boba Garden today through DoorDash. They let me know they were out of 3 flavors for the macaron ice cream sandwiches and kindly offered the flavors they did have and that I could also substitute the sandwiches with other items. I chose the 2 flavors they had for all of the 4 sandwiches I ordered and to my surprise they gave me a free sandwich! The sandwiches are from MAVEN CREAMERY and they're SOOO GOOD. I also got a peach slushy with lychee bits and it was so satisfying, tasty and refreshing. I will definitely be visiting in person soon! read more
