    Lychee strawberry kiss with added red bean and white peach oolong iced tea
    Christine N.

    Got their lychee strawberry kiss with added red bean and white peach oolong iced tea, and both were pretty tasty. Didn't like how floral the oolong was, but I should have inquired. The other drink was really good together with the red bean. Definitely would come back for that.

    Large drink order for school team!

    One of my PTO mom friends told me about Boba Square and she was right -- they are so easy to work with and really care about making drinks that their customers will like. I reached out to the owner to place an order of 50 drinks for our science team and they were so thoughtful about recommending low caffeine drinks appropriate for a group of tweens. The kids absolutely loved the drinks and asked me to re-order them for our next science competition in Irvine.

    Boba Square is one of my favorite spots for fruit tea, and it's a place I consistently come back to when I'm in the area. I tend to rotate between a handful of drinks, but they're always reliable and well-balanced, which says a lot. The lines are usually reasonable, though the shop itself is pretty small, so I usually just order my drinks to go. Prices are fair for the quality, especially considering how generous they are with fillings. A lot of their drinks come fully loaded, so I never feel the need to add extra toppings. The Peachy Berry is a great example--it comes with strawberry bursting pieces and grass jelly, which add great texture and make the drink feel more complete and satisfying. Overall, it's a solid spot for fruit tea with consistent quality and good portions.

    Black Sugar Milk Boba

    I tried the black sugar milk tea and it was good but I don't know if I want to spend $6-7 on one drink. The place is small so not too many people can hang out inside. Service is nice. I like that they give you options for the ice.

    White Peach Oolong Milk Tea . Recommend!
    Di L.

    Craving something sweet after a savory lunch. First time here and was pleasantly surprised they have a peach oolong. I love a good peach tea. This was fragrant and fruity, perfect for summer. Also got the Phoenix King which unfortunately tasted like flavored water. My preference is less sugar to taste the tea, and the Phoenix tasted weak, so I would not recommend. However, will def return for the peach tea. It's the only local tea shop I know that has a peach selection.

    Is this the best Irvine spot for after lunch, sports, tutoring, dinner boba drink cravings? Oh yeah, @boba_square in Irvine has been satisfying all boba lovers in the OC with their bouncy and chew boba balls. Their boba goes well with every drink and their yummy popcorn chicken!

    PARKING: Pretty decent parking! Just park on the outskirts as the market is the main attraction in this plaza. SEATING: Typical boba shop layout. Big table, one small table, and a counter top. Seating on the outside as well. There's a couple of games they provide such as connect four and tic tac toe! SERVICE: Quick service! They were helpful to ask if I had any questions. Super nice people working at the counter! FOOD: Got the green thai tea with oat milk and it was fantastic! Just the right amount of sweetness and I could really taste the tea! Really enjoyed savoring it by the window! You could people watch! OVERALL: A nice low-key boba shop! Would come back if I'm ever in the area again!

    This is my second time back at this boba shop, and a big part of that was thanks to Drew. From the moment I walked in, he was super friendly, patient, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. You can tell he really knows the menu and cares about making sure customers get exactly what they want. The drinks were fresh, well-balanced, and not overly sweet, or it can be depending on your preference which I really appreciated. Overall, the service and quality made this a spot I'll definitely be coming back! I also think this is better than omomo

    Green Thai Milk Tea
    Michael B.

    This is quickly becoming my favorite local spot for boba. They really just hit all the checkmarks. 1. Fantastic variety. Tons of different milk and fruit teas, including some more unique flavors like guava. 2. Delicious taste/quality. So far I've had Green Thai (pictured below), house milk tea, wintermelon milk tea, and pink guava. None of them disappointed. They also add fun toppings like basil seeds and star jellies. 3. Great service and ambiance. The workers are pretty quick to help you out, even though there's a self-order screen. Interior design is sleek and pleasing. They even have some food items. I've tried their popcorn chicken and fries. I might prefer some other locations for this kind of food, but hey, at least they have something! All in all, I'm thankful that I found this spot, which is so close to where I live in Woodbury.

    Popcorn Chicken
    Peter T.

    I went here cause it was next to work. They greet you upon arriving and had really friendly service. Their drinks were refreshing but I would come back just for the popcorn chicken alone. Crunchy, moist, and packs a lot of flavor. Highly recommend overall!

    Anna C.

    I got the lychee kisses which is a lychee slush with lychee bits and fresh strawberry puree. The consistency was ok, ice was a bit hard. I really liked the strawberry puree though and the strong lychee flavor. However overall I just thought it was average. There were a lot of other yummy-sounding flavors though on the menu.

    Does the non dairy creamer you use has casein? I am allergic to this milk protein, casein, in the non dairy creamer and have reaction. My asian body isn't good with milk traces.

    Hi Thy! Our non dairy creamer ingredients are glucose syrup, hydrogenated palm kernel oil, whey powder, sodium caseinate and a couple of stabilizers. I hope this answer your question

    Do the milk teas have dairy? If so, is there a non-dairy option?

    Majority of our milk tea uses non dairy creamer and the ones that do not can always be adjusted to a non dairy option! Our house milk tea which is our number 1 seller is already non dairy :)

There were about 3 people ahead of me in line and a few waiting for drinks, but I was able to order and get my drink in around 10 minutes. Staff was very friendly and checked in with us while waiting in line! I ordered the Matcha Two, which comes as a matcha latte topped with salted matcha vanilla cream foam. The foam was velvety and creamy. The matcha had a smooth, earthy flavor with subtle sweetness. Oatmilk was the default choice, and while I usually think oatmilk can overpower matcha, it worked well in this drink. It is a little pricey for 1 drink, but that also seems to be the norm these days for specialty drinks. This is more of a grab-and-go spot than a place to hang out. There's no seating, just a bench inside, and everyone waited outside since the interior is on the smaller side. Parking was easy when I went. Overall, a pleasant experience for a yummy matcha drink, and I'd definitely come back to try more of their matcha menu!

They only allow one party in the shop at a time. You order with one person, and then they send you to the cashier to pay. Once you place your order, the drinks come out pretty quickly. I love a good Blueberry Matcha, so I knew I had to try one. The matcha latte has oat milk and their house blueberry puree. I really enjoyed it! They also have their Matcha Lattes "One," "Two," and "Three." We opted for the Matcha Three which includes salted matcha vanilla ice cream and matcha sorbet, oat milk, and house vanilla syrup. It was pretty good! Lastly, we got the Coconut Pandan Green Rice drink which sounded unique! It's ice blended with coconut cream, pandan coconut rice, and condensed milk. It's a thicker drink with more texture from the rice. I'll be back!

I saved mine for later and they still held up really well. Not sure if I'd come back specifically for the matcha, but I'd probably try their coffee next time since that seemed to be what most people were ordering. Cute spot and good pastries, but the viral hype set my expectations a little too high

The breakfast food options all looked so delicious and tasty, but I opted for a matcha chia parfait along with a redeye coffee.

There is plenty of free parking and in the afternoon and on Saturdays you can park right at the entrance. The restroom is located in a separate building across the courtyard and watching people search for it can be mildly entertaining LOL It is a nice place to work with plenty of natural light and a wonderful patio for enjoying nice weather. I just wish the drinks were a little better. But because of the convenient location I will probably try it again. Maybe Ill try something iced?
