    Thai Tea and Japanese Brown Rice Milk Tea
    Lyane P.

    I ordered from a kiosk and the drinks came out within 5 minutes. Very quick service! I got a Japanese Brown Rice Tea, with 70% sweet and added boba for an extra $1. My son ordered a Thai Tea with 70% sweet and added boba. Brown rice tea was great, tasted just like genmai, but sweet and creamy. Thai tea was a bit subpar, light on the flavor and too sweet even at 70%. There are a few tables to sit at and chat. The place is decorated with a wall of lanterns for a cute backdrop.

    6/23/25 Monday Ordered thru UberEats for pick up. They had a 20% off promo on UberEats. When we arrived (around 8:30 PM) we had to wait around 5 minutes after our ETA for the order to come out. Got the taro shake. It was creamy and delicious. Smooth without icy chunks. There's plenty of indoor seating. Looks very modern and the decor is very aesthetic and cute. Nice hang out or study space. Spacious too. Plenty of parking during this time.

    Tokyo pistachio matcha latte, look at those layers!

    My husband decided to get me a drink from BoBaPOP today! I was unsure what to get. I went here years ago when they first opened and it didn't wow me. So I never returned. I decided on an Almond Milk Tea and a Tokyo pistachio matcha latte. I tried the Tokyo pistachio matcha latte. I do not like matcha. It's just a taste I can't get used to. But this drink is bearable. I found the sweetness perfect and it is really creamy. I actually enjoyed it! I'll give my review on the almond milk tea later. :) Overall the drink tasted really good. I would get this again. 9/10 EDIT: I tried the almond milk tea. It's been the flavor I've been chasing for a long time. I've tried almond milk tea at every boba spot and it just doesn't have that taste. 10/10 (for me) sweetness was just right. I will be coming here again and again!

    (IG: @foodwithdeni)We ordered Japanese Brown Rice Milk Tea, Flower Green Milk Tea & Winter Melon Milk Foam They have the best selection of milk teas (and I'm normally not a milk tea person)! We ordered these drinks again and we really liked them. They have locations in LA/OC so check out a location near you! This was our customization but you can make adjustments to your liking -- 1. Winter melon milk foam 30% ice, 30% sugar & black pearl 2. Flower Green Milk Tea, 70% ice, 30% sugar, w/white crystal peal 3. Japanese Brown Rice Milk Tea , 30% ice, w/brown sugar crystal pearl, 100% sugar

    What in the world??? This drink was no good. Just not good flavoring, and even worse the boba texture. If you're a boba fanatic like I am, you know good boba from bad boba. The texture was not it. The milk tea was also not it. It was also like 90 degrees outside and all they had were fans running. That's a no no for me. Parking is available right outside shares w other establishments.

    Found this place on Yelp as I was driving SVG looking for a boba place. It caught my eye because of the cute frenchie on their cups. Upon walking in, there is a lot of seating, perfect for hanging out or studying. There were 2 kiosks for you to order. There was a variety of selections to choose from. I kind of kept if safe with my drinks and ordered roasted oolong milk tea for my friend and I got jasmine brown rice green milk tea, both with Boba. We both enjoyed the drinks. My friend especially enjoyed the texture of the boba & the cup because he has a frenchie... one of the main reasons I chose this place to try out. Whenever I am in the SGV area, I definitely would stop by and try this place out again.

    The drinks here are really refreshing & unique. I personally like the dodgers dream float, brown rice milk tea, and banana milk the best here. I love the ambiance here. Not only is it cutely decorated with lanterns, signs, and chalkboard art, the place is really beautifully lit. My friends and I can sit here and chat for hours. The service is always on point too!

    Very disappointing and misleading. I ordered a "large" hot jasmine green tea, but the cup I received was only about 10 cm tall, which is closer to a small size. This is especially misleading because the restaurant's large cold drink is significantly bigger. When placed side by side, the size difference is obvious. Labeling both as "large" is not reasonable. On top of that, the taste was poor. The tea barely had any jasmine aroma or flavor. I regularly drink jasmine green tea from "Tea Station Express" in temple city, and the difference is huge -- this tasted flat, weak, and nothing like proper jasmine tea. Between the misleading sizing and the low quality of the drink, this was not worth the price. I would not recommend ordering any tea from here.

    My first time trying boba and cream croissants. The croissant was crispy and flavored with condensed milk my fav Boba Pop has some of my favorite fresh teas including flower green tea and Japanese brown rice tea. Definitely recommend trying Boba Pop if you haven't yet, they have a few locations around the SGV area. Great service! The store has a few tables and it's pretty spacious.

    Vietnamese Egg Coffee & Pandan Cold Foam Coffee

    Haven't gone back to bobapop for months and they had some new items on the menu. The Vietnamese drip coffees ! We ordered Vietnamese Egg Coffee & Pandan Cold Foam Coffee. They were really good, reminded me Ha Noi's egg coffee from Vietnam. Highly recommend, crack coffee woke me up !

    The croissant with boba was good! It's a dessert for me! It was pretty empty when we went, and food came out fast. I think you need a code for restroom and we never asked. They have a game section where you can just grab and play. Like some small boba or dessert shops. I had a great time there with my group, playing games while waiting for food. One star off: the picture on tablet was misleading. I thought it was croissant and a boba drink for that one price but I was wrong....

    Brown Sugar Latte and Roasted Oolong Milk Tea, plus the famous boba croissant!!!
    Nancy T.

    Great place for boba! Me and my sister came here for a meetup. She ordered a brown sugar milk with boba, while I ordered a roasted oolong milk tea with boba. We both loved our drinks, as the flavor was good, not overly sweet and the boba was perfectly chewy. The service was fast, helpful and friendly. The colorful lanterns and cute decor was also a huge plus. On a whim, we decided to try the boba croissant, which wouldn't typically be something I would find appealing, but I'm glad we decided to give it a try because it was SO good! Just picture a warm fluffy and flaky croissant with cream and warm brown sugar boba. It honestly blew me away and was so good that I ended up ordering another one to bring home for my kids! I'll definitely be back if I'm in the SGV area!

    Look at the ice  now think of the ratio of you just add water
    Eduardo C.

    25% actual drink and 75% ice. Drinks are absolutely great, but this feature makes you really think about paying x amount for a basic 6oz drink that looks like 12oz drink.

The outer layer is crispy and the slag is falling off. The song itself has a rich milky fragrance, with the fragrance of rose and lychee fruit.

Hazelnut Latte With the aroma of nuts, the coffee and milk fragrance blend very smoothly. Matcha Latte The tea is rich in flavor, and the taste is silky and smooth.

We got the 4-piece set with Bischoff Crunch, Taiwan Dong Ding Oolong Tea, Marukyu Matcha, and Dark Chocolate because leaving chocolate behind feels illegal. First bite in and suddenly everyone at the table forgot manners. The puff shells were perfectly crisp and airy, while the cream inside was smooth, light, and not sugar-bomb sweet. Every flavor showed up exactly as advertised too. The matcha came in earthy and rich, the oolong tasted like tea leaves earned a pastry degree, and the Bischoff Crunch almost caused a "who had more bites" courtroom situation. Meanwhile the Dark Chocolate sat there quietly like the cool cousin at the family party before completely stealing the show. The drinks were not about to get overshadowed either. The Pistachio Cream Top Latte was ridiculous in the best way possible, especially knowing they roast the pistachios in-house before turning them into that silky nutty cloud on top. And the Lemon Breeze Espresso? Bright, citrusy, refreshing, basically summer on vacation while espresso does cartwheels in the background. Safe to say Browned did not come to play. My caffeine levels are concerning, my dessert standards are now unrealistic, and yes... I'm already planning my return like a pastry addict with a mission.

I'd still be open to coming back and giving it another try, maybe the double matcha will hit better next time.

They honestly should consider lowering the oat milk to $1.00 cuz $2.00 is higher than other places, so then you're basically paying $10+ for boba.
