    Tropical Fruit Tea
    Tiffany C.

    Ordered tropical fruit tea with boba. This is a self serve order from the kiosk. Then they call your name to pick it up on the counter. I am not a fan of their boba. Over cooked. It's soggy and mushy texture. The fruity drink itself was good. Cost $8.45.

    I always get the Brown Sugar Boba, but this time my friend convinced me to try the Crème Brûlée Boba and OMG... it was SO good! Seriously, absolutely delicious. Rich, creamy, and full of flavor. I can't believe I waited this long to try it. Definitely ordering this one again!

    Very good flavor. Sweetness levels are normal and not overly sweet, so 80-100% sweetness is pleasant and good for people who don't want too much sugar. Anything less will still be good but likely noticeably weak. Mango Paradise Tea had a nice pronounced mango flavor and I especially liked the mango jam/pieces that were in it. Added aloe goes well too. Brown sugar boba black tea was another good classic and would recommend.

    Really enjoying this new boba shop in town. Love that there's no extra charge for oat milk--a big plus if you're lactose intolerant. They're currently running a buy a drink, get a super cute bun deal, which was a hit with my kids. They're already asking to go back tomorrow! Service is excellent also. Not sure if the guy I spoke with was the owner but he's very patient and nice.

    Delicious boba, and such a cute spot!! I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in to see all of the cute Christmas decorations in the store and the other art. They have a big boba statue outside. The shop is located in downtown Walnut Creek near lots of shops and restaurants. I've tried out a few boba places in this area and this one is my new favorite. As I waiting for my drinks I took a look at their menu and they have very unique seasonal items that I want to go back to try. The worker was also super nice! My drinks were made very fast and they were delicious. They both had a lot of boba, which I liked.

    A very nice boba place. The boba and drink are both very good. The chocolate bao is very delicious as well. My only complaint is the brown sugar boba is not really brown sugar boba. At least not very fresh. So far I am very disappointed of finding perfect brown sugar boba except Yi-Fan in Berkeley. Well alas! That's why one star off!

    Creme Brulee Boba was very good! Tea could be stronger for the fruit tea. Street parking was convenient and easy to find. Metered parking. Right next to a pretty good dumpling place too. Service was accurate, could have been faster. Ambiance was quite nice. A great place to sit, study, hangout, have a zoom meeting, etc.

    When I read a review that said best boba tea in the world, you know I had to come. I ordered: ROASTED ROYAL OOLONG TEA LIGHT SWEETNESS LIGHT ICE with honey boba and coffee jelly - interesting that they (from my experience) are the only establishment that provides differing boba selections of honey boba and brown sugar boba.. you can definitely taste the honey... QQ + chewy = well cooked - regrets of picking coffee jelly... too generic and waaaayyyy too much of it in the drink... very crunchy and not very refreshing. I only picked this because I really really really wanted grass jelly. - thorough oolong taste with no bitter after taste --I love love love that they allow you to pick the "milk base" at no extra charge!!! They have 3 options: ORGANIC whole milk, oat milk, soy milk. - utilizes organic teas - took them 10 minutes to make the drink (parking meter started as 18 minutes and when I went back it was 8 minutes) All of the food menu was out of stock. Service: - they literally hand you your drink and comments to shake it well - service fairly nonexistent as they make you order through a kiosk but they will help and take your order if needed - willing to answer all and any questions in a kind manner - I asked where the bathroom is (no code needed) and they guy making the drinks friendly tells me where it is whereas there were 2 workers sitting with one using a laptop who just points Ambience: - can seriously sit chill chat and relax - modern decor - truly a clean bathroom Location: - can be problematic as it's in downtown Walnut Creek - I didn't drive around and just took the first spot I saw which was street parking charging at a rate of 25 cents for 18 minutes. - there's not much to do and eat in the area...unless you take a stroll Why not 5 stars? - needs more toppings selection (brownie points if they are creative!) - weak TP in the bathroom - limited options... wished there were more fruity drinks and more creative tea drinks (I am surprised they haven't entered the world of grapes and blending the teas) - no food available - wish for better cups

    Bao babies - so cute!
    Ang S.

    My daughter loved seeing the huge Boba Studio art figure outside (which rolls around, so be careful) - this caught our eye and we strolled on in. Easy ordering using the two touchscreens. Super cute "bao babies" that takes about 10 minutes to steam. There's about 18 seats inside. Cute decor. Love that they use fresh fruit instead of fruit puree like most boba cafes. Husband and I liked our brown sugar boba tea (boba tasted fresh!), and son loved his mango smoothie. The kids loved the cute bao babies - daughter loved the custard chick and son loved the taro penguin. We will be back when we need our boba fix!

    Creme brulee Boba with oat Milk
    Robert R.

    I had been here a few times and it is always consistent. You can order via Kiosk or pay cash through the cashier. I almost always get the Tiger Sugar or the Coffee Creme Bruelle Boba. You can have the option of Oatmilk as the dairy and they torch the sugar topping in front of you. It's never too long of a wait and they also have some food options. Definitely my go to place for Creme Bruelle Bobas when I get to the other place in Dublin.

    Hojicha Milk Tea (Low-Caffeine)
    Jacqueline N.

    This place's hojicha is really yummy. I got soy milk with my drink for no extra charge which is so rare in this economy. In my head this was just a regular green milk tea but you can taste the earthiness of the hojicha! The brown sugar boba oddly enough compliments the drink pretty well. I got Half Sugar and I think if you're gonna get boba it's worth skimping on the sweetness. And when I asked for less ice they did indeed give me an okay amount of ice which is so classy of them. There are restrooms in the back too. They also have WiFi. The place is relatively quiet compared to other boba shops where the music is blasting so loud you feel like it's on purpose to get you to leave but no. Boba Studio is classy. They play bossa nova and jazz at an appropriate volume. I can see myself coming here to get work done and study because they also have snacks and outlets if only I lived closer.

    I was surprised that there was a boba shop here in WC next to Dumpling Hours. Came here on a rainy day to get out of the house. Hojicha with Brown Suga Boba- 3.5/5. Boba was so flavorful and chewy like a mochi/ rice cakes. HOWEVER, the tea was just there. It lacked UMPH. I would ask for less ice next time. Matcha Mango for Hubs- 4/5. This was my favorite. Hubs got less ice. Full of flavor. Nice mango flavor. Matcha with Strawberry for DD- 4/5 A bit too sweet but nice flavor. The chicken nuggets and mozzarella sticks were nice crunchy flavorful. 4/5

    Hojicha with brown sugar Boba
    Lexi R.

    Ordered the hojicha milk tea with brown sugar boba. The boba was delicious!! Not too chewy, still soft, and still warm. Chef's kiss. The tea was a let down though. I ordered it with the least amount of ice possible because I knew it was a hot day and I didn't want it to get watered down. Unfortunately, from the first sip, it already tasted watered down. Such a bummer!

Inside is pretty small to sit, and ordering is via a kiosk. The drink kiosk is further back in the store. Lychee Fruit Tea: I adjusted to 50% sweet and it was still sweet for me. I added sago for texture and it did give it a nice profile overall. The 4 pieces of lychee also gave it added sweetness to my drink. It was chilled nicely and overall, it did brighten up my mood for the day. I think I need to go to 30% sweet and it will be perfect for me. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again.

To be honest though, I only like their pandan boba tea and I occasionally get the mochi donuts for my kids. They're good and I do love coming here when I'm in the area. The place itself is clean, bright and pink. They have this magnet wall for a cute instagram reel post and a telephone booth to take some cool photos. It is very small though. I don't think you can bring a large group to hang out and chill inside. They only have two tables and maybe 6 or 8 chairs. As for the service, it's efficient I guess.

In the past, before my order was placed, I would ask for a lower sugar level (for example, 20% or 25% sugar). The staff would always accommodate my request. I was even told before that the kiosk doesn't have an option to select custom sugar percentages, so they could adjust it manually. This time, when I placed my order and politely asked about the sugar level, the employee told me that they could no longer make any changes unless the option was available on the kiosk. If the sugar level option was there, I could select it myself, but if it wasn't available, they said they couldn't adjust it manually anymore. What made the experience worse was the employee's attitude. When I said hello, it felt like she barely wanted to respond. Maybe she was tired or having a long day, but the interaction came across as very unfriendly and unwelcoming. On top of that, the boba was not cooked properly. The center of the pearls was hard and undercooked instead of soft and chewy, so I didn't enjoy my drink at all. Honestly, I'm writing this review mainly because of the customer service. The attitude was extremely poor, and combined with the undercooked boba, it left a very negative impression. After being a loyal customer for years, I don't think I'll be coming back for boba again.

The minus one star is for the cup sizing. Bring it back! Main reason why I love coming here, a good price for big cup size. Now it's like every other boba shop. Which is fine, but I won't go out of my way to come get boba here like I used to.

    Came in here on a Saturday, so it was super busy. Ordered a Taro milk tea with red bean and Boba…read more Before I ordered, I made sure that the lady behind the desk had oat, almond, or dairy free milk options. She must've misheard me when I said, oat milk, cause she started using whole milk after I ordered. I told her I have dairy sensitivities. And she said that is the only milk that she had. But this was after I paid for the drink... i've never had a problem at other locations with no other dairy options. ...there was also barely any Boba and half the drink was red bean. Very disappointed. I must've been fourth in line after a family, and three other customers were served before me. If you have dairy sensitivity, DO NOT come here. I do not recommend it. Probably not coming back here again.
