Not going to lie this was probably one of the worst boba drinks I've had. I got the jasmine milk tea and there was no jasmine or milk tea flavor at all! It was very watered down and tasted like water to be honest. I tried to tell the employee but they didn't say anything to me and just took the drink back and remade it but it was still really bad. And when they were giving me back the drink he was very rude and yelled jasmine milk tea even though I was right in front of him. Only giving two stars because the claw machines are a cool concept and we had fun. read more

Claw Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

I had seen this shop on social media and happened to be in the area, so decided to go check it out. The decor for the seating area is very cute and they have a back room where the claw machines are. Staff was not the friendliest but they could've had a long day. The bright neon lights of the ordering table made it a bit difficult to focus on the menu but once I ordered staff gave me my total and I paid. They charge for coins to play the claw machines and the pricing for single plays are a bit overpriced and some machines cost 4 tokens. Overall not the best coin pricing system and the prizes were not the greatest quality to be charging so much. The boba tea didn't take long to make but the flavor of the tea was not the best. Very bland and slightly bitter for the Thai tea I ordered. It was an okay experience service and pricing wise but I'm just glad I was able to win ONE prize out of the many machines they had. Fun for the one time experience but as it is very out of the way for me I don't think I will be visiting again any time soon. read more

Claw machines are ridiculously rigged. If you want to teach your kids why claw machines are a scam - that's the place to go, lol.

Best Boba in Fulton county hands down. Every other place I go is bland. They work quick and all the claw machines are cool. I'm actually drinking boba from another place while writing this and regretting not just getting some from here instead. read more

Who doesn't love throwing all their hard earned coins into a literal machine designed to take said coins? I know I do! Come ready to lose big but win in the bubble tea department. Taro, milk tea, strawberry smoothie were all solid drinks to quench our thirst during raucous rounds of not winning stuffies to the claws. read more

Parking can get tricky during rush hour. Store was very clean and tools of seating. Customer service was lacking. Didn't feel welcome just rushed and the store was not busy. We got Hong Kong Coffee with boba, Thai coffee with coconut milk and Brown sugar with cheese foam. All three were watery, syrupy sweet and tasted pretty much the same. Except for the coffee one which tasted like a light coconut water with a hint of coffee. The claw room in the back has tons of machines to play from, most take 2-3 rockets to play. The claw inside the machines worked like your standard claw...so neat of luck. What I found shady was the store guy walking around and opening the machines to reposition the plushies perfectly flat making the chances of winning nearly impossible for the kiddos. So for me this is not a do over. read more

New boba place in Alpharetta! Great location (windward pkwy) right next to Chipotle. They have a huge room with crane (claw) machines! Most of them are pokemon based and some. Really nice seating area inside to hangout with friends. They serve milk teas, fruit based teas, milk shakes, slushies (frozen drinks) and few desserts. The drink comes in two sizes (regular or large). You get to choose the 'tea base' for fruit teas (options: black, jasmine green & oolong tea). They also have diary substitutes for milk based teas at additional cost. We tried the matcha latte and the lychee tea. The drinks were refreshing. Service was good and fast . Nice plan to hangout with friends. Decent prices! Go check them out. read more

The only type of claw machine place like this in Atlanta that I know of. We actually randomly saw this location when driving past and stopped in to see what it was about since we've been to a similar concept in Houston. So far I've visited this place twice. The claw machines have a decent selection and it is not as crowded as the Houston one I've been to before. Overall not as well executed though. I've noticed that they've made the machines harder and it's very easy to spend $50 and not get a single stuffed animal. This imo disincentivizes people from coming back. Who wants to spend $50 and get nothing in return? We ended up spending over $100 each time and did go home with something but just be mindful it's not as easy as it might look. To get two stars back I'd love for the machines to be a little bit easier and for there to be more boba options. I'm a huge boba fan but haven't been impressed with the selection there. If I could have boba and play claw machines at the same time I really would probably spend more money read more

First off, the tea is pretty good here! There are some cool instagramable seating options and a photo backdrop. Parking was easy when we were there, but I know this strip mall can get crowded at peak times. When you order your drink, you can get tokens for the claw machines with your purchase. This is the only way to pay with a credit card for claw machine tokens. Otherwise, the machines are cash only and do not give change. The more tokens you buy, the less per token it is. In the back room, they have about 50 claw machines, including teeny tiny ones that have keychains as prizes. Some machines take more tokens than others, so beware. I think the rates are based on the prize potential and the highest one I saw took 3 tokens. There are some that take 1 and 2 tokens as well. We spent about 30 minutes here enjoying our drinks and living the thrill of the claw machines. For a $20 spend, we came away with 3 stuffed animals. The prizes are definitely attainable, making it fun! read more

I wanted to share feedback regarding our recent visit. I am genuinely disappointed by the business practices we experienced today and I would've called and told them this, but they have no phone number on their website! My two daughters and I spent approximately $40 on your claw machines, which appeared to be significantly rigged and did not provide a fair experience. Unfortunately, this was compounded by customer service that felt inattentive and unhelpful, which added to our frustration. We left feeling disappointed, and our overall impression of the business is not positive at this time. read more

Interesting concept for a boba place in Alpharetta! The front half is really cutely decorated and there is a good amount of seating as well. Tons of options for boba and a huge variety of claw machines in the back too. You can pay for tokens that can be used at the machines and also just pay to get the item you want from the machine as well. read more

This is a really interesting and unique business which is half boba shop and half claw machine shop. Of course, my kids love it. The boba shop offers quite a few kid-friendly (non-caffeine) fruity drinks. The boba drinks were all good, and you can customize your sugar level. The claw machine is fun, and has a reasonable difficulty level. You will likely go home with some type of stuffy toy. The place draws a good crowd on weekends, with plenty of families there for fun. read more

I got the passion fruit tea it was really good and the boba was nice and chewy. The people were nice and friendly with good customer service and my drink was done really fast. The drink was $6.54 after tax. The cup that in came in is nice, sturdy and reusable. The parking lot provides free parking to other locations in the strip also. If you're in the area looking for a good boba drink give it a taste! read more

The Boba cafe area was super cute - cute tables to sit and some regular tables ... great photo ops The claw room was amazing!!! The small Machines took one coin and the larger took two. You could get 6 coins for $5 and more ... My kids got 4 toys and spent $30 ... basic claw machine fun... but it was worth it read more

It's a really cute boba shop. You can get some cute instagram pics here. They have different kinds of milk if you're lactose. I ordered the taro slushy w boba and they forgot to put boba in there. They were really fast to correct it and add it in. But honestly it's taste like every other boba place so nothing special. The claw machines is in the back room. They have a lot of different options of stuffed animals and keychains. Each of them runs from 1-3 coins. We spent over $50 for 5 stuffed animals so I think it's worth it. They also sell them too with pretty decent prices. I would come back if I live near by. read more

Went with my kids. Couldn't find the open hours online anywhere so we winged it. I was so excited to find it open that I forgot to check the blues, and it's a bit of a drive for us, so if you go and see the hours would you mind posting them? The claw games were a good balance of fun and reward. I would say there's like a 1 in 5 or 1 in 7 probability of winning, so be ready to spend at least $5 for the tokens! The drinks were decent, but for us since it's a 25 min drive, what really makes this place worth it is the number of claw machines and the ability to actually win something! I would not have made this drive just for the teas, but it was so much fun to play the games my kids have been begging me to go back ever since. read more

Claw Boba - My 4 year old was able to win 2 of the 3 prizes on her own. Granted, this took about 15 tries. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Came here for the claw machine only and not the boba but walked away with a lot! The claw machines in the back had a good variety of actual quality stuffed animals and my favorite was from the Line friends series. They also have a lot of pokemon and sanrio themed toys. The quality was good and not knockoffs like at a lot of other places. They also have a good selection of small and regular sized animals. read more

This place is very cute and aesthetic, I'll give it that. That's about all it's got going for it though. The drinks are pretty standard ($6-7ish) for a large and nothing special. If anything I would pick Ding Tea or one of the other chains as the drink was very mid. I went with a friend and we spent $10 on about 12 (I don't remember the exact amount) tokens. Each machine was about 2-3 tokens to play minus the tiny keychain machines were 1 token. Every claw was extremely rigged (no grip, doesn't fully close, etc) and we walked away with nothing. Pretty disappointed as $10 isn't a cheap amount, we bought in the mid tier section for token prices. read more

The good- very cute decor and great idea The yummy- the boba is fine, not the best I've had but still good (overpriced for the quality) The bad- The staff is very rude and short. I asked if the thai tea was creamy as it normally will be a milkier thicker drink and the response was very rude and sarcastic and I was told "well it's a liquid". The claw machines are average priced with it being $5=6 tokens and so on. The machines themselves take 2-3 tokens for stuffed animals and 1 for keychains and are an average level of difficulty. The machines are sensitive to tap so if you accidently tap you loose your coins because the machine claw drops and goes back up without opening . I asked about this as I assumed it was an error that would be made correct but was basically shown it was my fault for accident double clicking and just lost out on the coins. I wish the service was better but unfortunately I won't be back after this experience. read more

I've been here a few times since they opened and they definitely have made it harder to win prizes on the claw machines since opening. That being said there aren't too many claw machines places besides Round One so it might be worth a try, but would not expect to win more than 1 not so great quality plushie for $20. Bubble tea quality is ok, similar to other places like Kung fu tea. read more

I had heard of this place through social media and my spouse had mentioned it. I figured it would be a pretty cool place to venture off to because I have been itching for a claw machine place and another source of boba tea for my addiction. Upon entering, I am impressed on how clean and organized it is inside the establishment. I would say that it is definitely photo taking worthy. Walking around the claw machines, you are definitely taken aback on how many they have despite how small the place looks from the outside. Experience-wise, I was not very impressed for a couple reasons. First off, when I ordered my boba, I was charged an extra dollar in comparison to the menu. Perhaps it was because I had wanted to add boba pearls to the drink but upon inspection of the receipt - nothing, just a price difference from what the menu on the board shows. The boba pearls were definitely a lot HARDER and required my entire car ride (about 30 minutes) back home to finally soften up. The beverage aside from that was pretty spot on. Now onto the main reason why I was there - the claw machines! Definitely weaker claw strength. Yeah this may be a sorry excuse, but I had a few definite grabs but it wouldn't even grasp the plush. Some other claw machines, I simply had the claws nose-dive into the back shelf and not even have a chance of winning. Giving the rating as is because of the price discrepancy, boba pearls being rock hard, and claw machine being a bit lack luster. I'd consider going back if I am in the area, but I do not think I would go out of my way to come again. read more

This place is pretty cute! My partner and I ordered bobs drinks - one strawberry and one mango. They were very tasty! Our drinks got to us fast and the staff were friendly. We then went into the claw room and whoa, I can see how someone can get addicted to using the machines. It was so much fun! My partner and I left with one plushie each -- it was a good night! We'll definitely be back. read more

We got a strawberry boba milky & a raspberry jasmine tea, both were delicious!! Of course we had to experience the claw machines and we were hooked! We got 24 tokens (12 games) and ended up winning 2 prizes. Not bad! read more

The claw machines are rigged do not go here. We spent $50 on tokens and 7 separate times my kids were able to pickup stuffed animals with the claws, only for the claws to open up and drop the animals before the claw reached the drop down bin.

Claw Boba - Strawberry fruit tea with extra boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

This review is only for the claw machine. They changed the calibration with the claw machine so the success rate is really low. First time when we went, every time was a win. But now, it has. rapid movement when it grabs at the top causing the item to be loosened and fall. No reviews on the food. read more

This place was extremely clean and nice, bathrooms included. The menu seems to have a good variety but both boba drinks my boyfriend and I got honestly were not that good. I got the taro, and he got thai tea, both with boba. The boba itself was extremely hard and the drinks were very watered down that we took about 4-5 sips and threw them away. Unfortunately I won't be coming back here read more

Went to a soft opening at @clawboba Very cool concept. Boba tea & claw machines. Giving honest review with lots of love! Aesthetically speaking, it was sooo cute. Drinks were not the best. We ordered their Taro milkshake with coconut milk & boba. It was honestly not the best boba tea we've ever tasted. It was blended without ice and felt like they blended oatmeal and dumped stevia in there and added boba. Worst texture ever. I couldn't even sip it on the 3rd try without gagging. That texture was traumatizing coming from a huge straw, lol. They kindly gave me a new drink when I told them and they were apologetic about us not liking it. I ordered their Passion Fruit Tea with Boba. That was way better and I was able to finish the whole thing but was still veryyyy sweet. Now, for the machines. I spent eleven dollars on machines and did not win one plushy. 1 token = $1 so you have perspective. That means I tried eleven times & that's that the claw grabbed a plushy every time but kept dropping it. I get the whole claw machine scheme but when you're spending money on drinks also, these machines need to be a bit easier with winning prizes. Also, the plushies were kid friendly only. It was all kiddie plushies and no anime or anything for adults. I was okay with the selection but would have liked a wider variety of plushies/ keychain options. My partner was not interested in any of the plushies. He said he would have enjoyed the experience if they had anime characters in the claw machines. This seems more like a kid environment and not for all ages. Sure, parents would enjoy a drink and the aesthetic, but other than that's there's not much for adults to do here, unless they geek over kid plushies. I left pretty sad because I wasted 11 dollars and did not win a plushy. Overall, this experience was a 4.5 out of 10 for us. Amazing concept but definitely needs to be worked on :) read more

The tea is always good and the service is great. My kids love coming here. The taro is delicious. The claw machines are always fun.

Claw Boba - Brown Sugar Boba, Mango Fruit Tea (strawberry popping pearls), Matcha Tiramisu, and Japanese Cheesecake - Bubble Tea Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

A nice place. You can tell they care about their service the way they interact with customers and set up the building. Boba tastes good from my experience. Couldn't decide between brown sugar and thai once so they offered me some secret menu "dirty thai", a mix between the two. It was good, and the fact they knew about that and stepped up to offer it to me speaks to their craft. read more
