    Milk Bread

    Bruu Cafe is my new favorite Boba place in Kansas City area. I've been trying many Boba places around the greater KC area and I like Bruu the best because of their selection, freshness, taste, and seasonal menu items. Bruu is located at a nice environment with relaxing chairs and a fun swing too. We ordered at a Kiosk and received our drinks 5 minutes later. They usually have something new like Butterbeer or Mangos. Favorites so far are the Crème Brûlée Milk Tea and Butterbeer with Crystal Boba. The Butterbeer is just as good as the one at Universal's Wizarding World. Their Milk Bread and Mochi Donut Ball went well with the drinks, we usually order one of their desserts.

    Cute shop. Fast service. Very sweet drinks. I would go again and try something else and lower the sugar a lot :)

    Nasty Matcha Green Tea Cheese Macchiato
    Christine L.

    I came here because of the high Yelp ratings, but honestly, I have no idea how this place earned them. If you're expecting real, quality boba drink--this isn't it. I ordered the matcha green tea cheese macchiato drink, exactly as described on the menu. It came out lukewarm, extremely bitter, and totally unpleasant. I asked if they could add more sugar--it helped a little, but it still tasted nasty. I can taste matcha powder. When I asked if they could remake it or let me switch to another drink, they refused. We also got a Thai tea, and it was little better but that was another letdown. It lacked sweetness and had barely any Thai tea flavor--just a weak, watered-down version of what it should be. Disappointing experience all around. I don't recommend this place if you know what good boba is supposed to taste like.

    It was my first time visiting this location. It looked small from the outside but it was quite spacious on the inside. I love this location specially because of the ambiance and atmosphere. Upon entering, you order on a kiosk up front. Next, after placing your order you'll receive a receipt with your order along with a number. Then, you're welcome to find a seat at any of the open seating options which are always nice and clean. After that, they'll either call your number or they'll come find you in the dining area and bring you your order! It was a super nice and convenient process and I enjoyed sitting down in the open area and using their free wifi to browse on my laptop and work on some work related projects. In addition, the Taiwan Toast was super delicious and exactly the kind of sweet treat I needed that day to help me focus on my work. Would definitely recommend this place and location specifically if you're looking for a nice treat and good place to hangout.

    Pine Berry Earl Grey Bliss with crystal bubbles

    Bruu is a pretty great experience overall! The menu offers a wide variety of drink options, from classic milk teas to creative fruit blends, and there were plenty of toppings to customize your order. All drinks can have their sugar levels adjusted as well. Upon entering, there is a kiosk at the front to order your drinks. The space itself is very open and inviting, with a descent amount of seating. I tried their Pine Berry Earl Grey Bliss and the Thai Iced Coffee. The tea was refreshing and had a good balance of the earl grey and berry flavor. The Thai iced coffee was not bad. Service was fast and friendly!

    The royal premium milk tea just ok. Boba has no flavor. And the sakura milk tea is not really pleasant flavor.

    Royal Milk Tea with Boba
    Sarah M.

    Located in Overland Park's outdoor plaza, Park's Place, Bruu offers the PERFECT cup of milky goodness. Their royal milk tea with light boba (bubbles) is still my all time favorite. It's been a few since my last review of their grand opening, and I can say after numerous visits, this boba place is still byfar the best in town!

    Signature Royal Milk Tea

    Bruù Cafe is so good! I stop by this location whenever I'm near the Leawood Town Center. You order at a kiosk. There are pictures included to give you a better idea on what you're getting if you're not as familiar. The service is always quick. The interior is nicely decorated and well kept. I usually find a spot to sit and sip on my tea for a little while before heading out and taking the rest to go. There's plenty of variety and also seasonal options. I love the Signature Royal Milk Tea. It's amazing and the boba are perfectly soft and chewy!

    Bruú has become one of my favorite boba spots! It's definitely grown on me over time, and now it's one of my go to's. Their Italian soda options and fruit tea options under "refreshing me" are probably my favorite. I also appreciate how they have a few kid-friendly options that are a smaller size + caffeine free, which I sometimes get if it's later in the evening. All the drinks hit the spot when I need a refreshing, sweet drink. There's only one self-serve kiosk to order from, but the employees are super helpful if there any questions. Love the interior, especially the fun swing and boba plushies. There is a decent amount of seating both indoor and outdoor, and Park Place itself has plenty of benches/seating throughout the area. Really nice location for Bruú!

    Best boba I've had in the Midwest! My daughter got the signature milk tea and I got the pumpkin brûlée. Both were delicious! There was only one person at the location. The cashier went super friendly but she was fast. They have a cute Instagramable swing in there.

    Service: they prompt you to order at the kiosk. Drink: I love how they had so many options and seasonal menus to try! I got the matcha latte with 75% sweetness for $7 (pricey for a drink). The drink was grainy and was not mixed thoroughly. I was a bit disappointed with the texture of the boba as it tasted old and not fresh. Ambiance: cute and aesthetic boba cafe. I would come back for the vibe of the cafe to meet with friends, but not for the drinks.

    In terms of location and ambiance this place is very cute. It's located in a strip of busy restaurants but is sufficient to find parking easily as there is a parking garage close by too. I got the taro milk tea and got it at 50 percent sweetness. Even at that it was pretty sweet but so good. This place is new and I'd recommend it.

    Good service by teenagers. Could improve on tempurature control for sauce like condensed milk and…read morehoney on ice cream speciality. Would make it easier to enjoy if similar or colder to icecream. Honey & teddy graham was a nice light treat even with the mess of honey dripping off. Was very open for the late night around 9pm ish

    First off, let's split this into a couple of different areas that make up the Bae 'experience':…read more Ice cream: 4/5 stars; good, just not...great Venue: 2/5 stars; small but it's more of a grab & go Personnel: 5/5 stars; one - ONE - sweet kid working Staffing: 0/5 stars; Ice Cream Bae - you stink! Summertime & ice cream pretty much go hand-in-hand, so it's no surprise that people flock into this shop. With great eats nearby or a soft area for littles to play just outside, this is a good spot to grab a sweet treat. Aye, but that's the rub. The menu, littered with 'specialities', calls for lots of prep work to serve the ice cream. It ain't just scooping from tubs, no, these are more 'artisanal' than they might need to be. When staffing is, ahem, 'challenged', then the line really backs up as people order these items off the menu. Our last visit had just one young lady working, and she was working her heart out. But there wasn't any help, and because there wasn't any help, everything was affected. BOOOOOOO!! So if you're more interested in sharing your treat on Insta or other socials, then knock yerself silly. But who gives two toots about ice cream that is expensive and delivered verrryyyy slowly? Take a pic and make it a still life, because Ice Cream Bae can be more 'still life' than quality experience.

    Mixed experience overall, mostly due to inconsistent execution on a couple of dishes…read more The chicken pizza was a letdown texture-wise -- it wasn't crispy the way it should have been. Sent it back, and the remake came out right. Jambalaya balls were a good concept but overloaded on rice and light on meat. That said, the crispy coating on them was well done. Asian chicken nachos were a toss-up. Chips held a decent crisp, but nothing about the dish stood out enough to win me over. Missed out on a free birthday dessert -- apparently you have to register with them in advance for that, which isn't obvious if you're not already in their system. The space itself is large and open, which made it surprising how busy it was for a Monday at 5:30pm. Staff seemed stretched thin for a restaurant that size -- service was slower than it should've been. The menu is enormous. Between the regular menu, a summer menu, and a special menu, it was more than I could reasonably parse. I stuck with the regular one. This tracks with my past visits -- always been a lot to wade through. Bottom line: Hit-or-miss on the food, service needs more staffing for the volume they get, and the menu could stand to be trimmed down.

    We brought our daughter here for her birthday lunch, and unfortunately, the experience was…read moredisappointing from the moment we walked through the door. The entryway had an overwhelming sewer gas odor that carried throughout the restaurant. We nearly turned around and left, but we had promised our kids the food would make it worthwhile. Sadly, it did not. We were seated with dirty silverware, waited approximately 20 minutes for our server to take our order, and then another 35 minutes for our food. The restaurant was nearly empty--we arrived around 2:30 on a Tuesday--so the delays were especially difficult to understand. We could see our food sitting in the window for at least 15 minutes while our server chatted with another employee. By the time the food arrived, it had clearly been sitting under the warmer too long. The plates were unbelievably hot, while the food itself was dried out and unappetizing. We decided not to risk another long wait for cheesecake, so I went to the counter and purchased a few slices while my husband waited for the check. I was able to order and receive the cheesecake before our server returned to the table with our bill. As we walked out, my daughter looked at me and said, "Remind me why you liked this place again?" Not exactly the birthday memory we were hoping to make.
