    Ambiance: it's a boba tea stand located at 2nd & PCH shopping center, outdoor seating only Service: the line is usually moving fast, you place the order and grab the drink at the same counter Drink: standard boba guys menu with seasonal specials Caramel Matcha Latte - ** organic matcha, milk, caramel, very plain taste Price: overpriced for very middling quality, not worth $7~$8 per drink for regular size, plus surcharge for every topping

    Boba milk tea with oatmilk regular sweet. On the less sweet scale and boba was very good.

    Boba milk tea with oatmilk regular sweet. On the less sweet scale and boba was very good. Perfect texture. Strawberry Matcha with oatmilk was decent. Located inside 2nd & PCH shopping center on the Marina side towards the parking lot on the other side of Whole Foods. entrance. I usually park at the Marina side if there's parking available.

    Lychee Oolong - no taste of oolong!!! Jasmine green tea w/boba

    I have been here twice now. The first time was probably a few years ago. I recalled that I didn't like what I ordered. This time around, the same. I ordered a lychee oolong. Not sure if they ran out of oolong, but there was no tea flavor at all?? I felt like I was drinking lychee juice or something. Maybe they are popular for their strawberry matcha milk? Since Boba Guys opened, I heard good things about it. Maybe I happened to order the wrong drink. I don't think I will be back, but if I do...I will try their milk drinks.

    Always stopping by here when I'm at 2nd and PCH. The rose black tea, strawberry matcha latte, and lychee oolong tea are my top favorites. I love that their drinks here are not as sweet but flavorful and refreshing. Tons of seating to hang out at. On occasion, they have a live musician on the stage by the grassy area. Good drinks. Fast service.

    Came here on a random weekday, and it was empty. I expected better service given so, but one of the workers just looked at me through the open door while I was standing at the register. At least a simple hi or a wave would suffice. Also, it still took some time before the worker walked over to me even though she made eye contact with me already and there was no one else waiting to order. Keep in mind, there were two workers in the back. The drinks were okay. Not super bad, but not super great where I would go out of my way to drive back here for preference. I tried the Tie Guan Yin Oolong Milk Tea and liked the light taste, but I've also tried TP Tea's version of the Tie Guan Yin Oolong Milk Tea and TP Tea's tasted light but more flavorful in comparison. My mom tried their Classic Black Milk Tea, which was good-- can't really go wrong with a black milk tea at a boba shop, so it's a safe choice. I do like how this place is outdoors and you get the fresh air by the ocean, so that's a plus with the outdoor seating. Just wish that service was better overall.

    My son and his friend's favorite boba place! Yummy! I'm trying the different boba flavors! He likes the banana one and the strawberry one. My friend likes the rose boba. It's an acquired taste. Tastes fancy and healthy. Great staff! Great place to sit and relax and hang out and shop around after! Thank you guys!

    Idk if it's this particular drink but I thought it was pretty average. I still enjoyed it since we worked out before. The boba was slightly hard and it was difficult to chew. Also maybe because it was later in the day, I just felt rushed to order since they were cleaning up? But the location is nice since there's plenty of seating. My friends and I were craving boba and wanted something sweet but I don't think I'll be coming back unfortunately.

    the wait time was incredibly long, so we even went over our parking time limit waiting 30 minutes for 2 drinks. i've definitely had better experiences with this location. considering the price, the slow service, high prices, and small sizes mean that i will not be coming back. strawberry matcha: 8/10 hojicha latte: 8/10

    We went for the Boba guys X Laneige event and was disappointed by the organization and attitude of the employees. We got there at 9:30 and the Bobo guys did not open until 11, but there were definitely people cutting and saving spots. While it is not the employees fault that the event was not organized, they were rude when we were ordering. I was also disappointed that they kept us waiting in between orders since everyone was basically only getting one drink. They also would not let us make any modifications to the drink. While me and my friend just missed the free full sized product, we were handed a small sample. I was also disappointed to see that some drinks were poorly made, especially since we waited so long. The drink itself wasn't bad, just really sweet. I liked that it was made with coconut milk, but the toasted coconut on top tasted like plastic and seemed to be there just as a decorative touch. Overall I would not trust this Boba guy's location. It's definitely not the same quality. I've tried at other locations. Also, the location is like an outdoor stand in the middle of a wind tunnel, so it's freezing cold.

    Strawberry Fields & Caramel Matcha Latte w/ Boba - 2ND & PCH | Long Beach, California
    Justin L.

    Interesting location. They are on the marina side of 2ND & PCH, like in a tunnel between Noble Bird and Lululemon. It gets super windy, especially in the evenings. There's plenty of seating if you want to linger. The large aardvark logo on the white brick walls is a good background for drink pictures. Not counting the short-lived Our Place pop-up, this is my least favorite Boba Guys. Drink standards and boba texture isn't as consistent compared to what I've gotten at their other cafes. I liked Classic Black when I first went several years ago. Recently, not as much. Too much ice, the sugar percentages are off, or the tea just isn't there. The toppings on my last visit were solid like rocks. I tried the Strawberry Fields and it was boring. The Horchata was watery. I didn't think the caramel and matcha latte combination went well together. So I'll probably stick to their other locations.

    Walking around 2nd and PCH and couldn't resist a Boba stop! Very impromptu but so worth it! The strawberry matcha adds an excellent flavor profile to your typical iced matcha. We added boba to complete the perfect drink!

    Hong Kong milk tea was strong, not too sweet (100% sweetness, extra tea) and it really hot the spot. I love that the staff taking our orders was also very friendly and helpful. It was my first time getting boba guys and I'm not sure if the drinks are going to be overly sweet or not. So she recommended getting 100% sweetness, with extra tea. Great recommendation! Plenty of seats and there's even a grassy area, which I guess is meant for kids/dogs.

    I've been coming here since it opened. It's conveniently located so you can grab your favorite to sip on while shopping at 2nd and PCH. My usual go to is a matcha latte and I sometimes switch it up to the matcha strawberry. The boba is chewy yet not too soft. The ube latte is sweet with coconut milk. They also have non caffeinated drinks for kids!

    Ask the Community - Boba Guys

    Can I order a drink and request no ice? I don't want to take the drink home and it becomes watered down.

    I definitely think so, considering they were more than willing to accommodate other things for the drink. They also ask you very specific details about how you want to customize your drink or if you want to, so I'm sure no ice is a possibility.

    How do I order online during covid as there is no phone no to call nor a link to order from?

    Go to their website: https://www.bobaguys.com/ & click on "Order Ahead".

    Are they open during the quarentine?

    no. i went today on 5/2 and they were not open despite what yelp says. save yourself the drive

They have a big menu with a lot of different options, not just coffee. The first time I went, most of the seats were taken but I was able to find a spot. I kind of struck out on the first drink I ordered though (the black sesame espresso, half sweet). I usually find specialty coffee drinks way to sweet and half-sweet is normally not a problem but I think I screwed up this beverage with my modification. Still, the cold foam was not that foamy or tasty and I found myself with a cup full of ice and no beverage after a couple sips. Wouldn't order again. The next time I came, the place was packed and there wasn't a single seat available which is good for them but disappointing for me. I ended up ordering the strawberry coconut cloud to go, since I already had enough caffeine for the day. What a delicious and refreshing drink! I'd absolutely get this again (or a different version). So overall, not a dependable spot to land if you want to work as it's often busy and all the seats are taken. I'm looking forward to trying some of their other drinks though, especially the egg cream or corn coffee drinks.

I went into javatinis since it was right there and I felt bad about just asking for a water without paying so I ordered an iced latte (even though I don't care for their drinks). After I had already paid, I asked them politely for an iced water. They said they would have to charge. I was like "what? Even though I paid for a drink?" And the girl said "yes we charge for the cost of the cup." So pathetic. So I walked over to bogarts fully expecting to have to pay for something else I didn't need just to get an iced water for my toddler. The girl at bogarts, without hesitation, gave me an iced water. I said "are you sure? I can buy a muffin or something" she said "seriously it's no problem." And because of that, I went back a few hours later to get an iced chai, and now bogarts is the only coffee shop we'll give our money to every week in seal beach. Funny how not being cheap and a penny pincher with your paying customers will benefit you in the long run. Javatinis could learn a thing or two from them...

Not a five-course meal. Then we waited OVER AN HOUR for finger sandwiches that tasted like cafeteria scraps. Most of the food was genuinely awful. The only remotely edible items were the tomato soup, cucumber/egg sandwich, and chicken quiche -- except the quiche wasn't even included and cost an extra $22, which is insane for a place already charging premium prices for mediocrity. The "egg sandwich" was basically stale yellow bread with microscopic traces of egg. And whoever decided HAM AND BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE belonged in a finger sandwich needs to be fired immediately. Even the table decor looked terrible. Every table had random mismatched pieces from different sets instead of a cohesive theme, so the whole place just felt cluttered, lazy, and disorganized. Nothing about this experience felt charming or intentional. I waited over an hour to eat garbage in a room that smelled like dust and neglect. Absolutely do not recommend. I wasn't paying, but the experience costed over $100 (including $60 from a groupon).
