This nicely-sized boba shop is so perfect for a sweet treat after Capt Loui. The decor is cute and…read morehas great soft lighting for good vibes, and cute photos. We went about 20 minutes before closing and I believe the owner was working alone that night. Sweet old lady. We ordered a bubble milk tea, avocado tea slush, and a grapefruit tea slush. I can tell by the taste that they use quality ingredients when it comes to their fruit based drinks. Grapefruit slush was refreshing and not too sweet. The avocado tea slush was new to us because it had that distinct fresh avocado taste, but it's not creamy, rather more on the tea side. We're used to Khmer spots that have avocado smoothies with the condensed milk and all that, but it tasted very good. The milk tea was more on the creamier/milkier side, I couldn't really taste the tea. The boba was a bit hard on the inside, but it was to be expected because it's the end of the day. In all, I would definitely come back for the avocado tea slush, and also try some more new items from the menu!

Yuki Bubble Tea had their grand opening this week (March 20-21, 2026) in Stoneham, across the…read morestreet from the firehouse. They offer a variety of iced drinks including milk tea drinks, tea drinks, fruit tea drinks, cheese foam tea drinks, fresh fruit tea slushes, cheese foam fruit slushes, plus nutella crepes. They were using Hood whole milk. I stopped by Yuki Bubble Tea during the grand opening and the place was getting slammed because they were offering BOGO free drinks. The standing and seating areas were busy. I ordered the Medium Taro Bubble Tea ($6.45 plus tax) and a Medium Tiramisu Milk Tea ($6.45 plus tax/actually free). Orders were backed up and they already ran out of several ingredients. They substituted white pearls for the black pearls in the taro drink, which I okayed. My order number was called ready in 28 minutes after ordering. The taro bubble tea drink was not the light purple color I'd expected, but a light brown color iced milk tea drink. This drink was sweet and cold and the substituted white pearls did the job. The tiramisu milk tea had a bit sweeter flavor than the taro milk tea drink and topped with a cool foam. I added some of the white pearls from the other drink to this drink. Overall, both cold milk tea drinks were okay. The staff was trying to rush things due to the crowds in the store.

Love Rancatore's, a local icecream and frozen yogurt spot that I have come to since I was a kid…read more They have rotating homemade flavors so you can always enjoy something different. There's classic flavors like cookie dough, but also more unique ones like ginger snap molasses. Today I tried the cocoa joel--chocolate icecream with chocolate chips and oreo pieces. It was creamy and the oreo pieces and chocolate paired nicely together. I usually like getting a cup or cone, which sizes range from micro to large. Or if you want to get a frappe you can do that as well! They also sell pints to go and ice cream cakes which is a nice option. A little pricey but it's homemade so you pay for the quality. Sometimes there is a line but usually it moves quickly. Lots of seating inside or you can take it to go and eat outside around the center if the weathers nice. Pro tip: They have complimentary magnets you can take one as a souvenir!

Total for 2 small cups came out to approximately $15 (not including tip). What's Hot - Quality. Delicious. Wonderful flavor and not too sweet, which I definitely appreciate. The black sesame flavor I ordered was subtle, exactly how black sesame should be. The dough in the cookie dough ice cream was a good texture and not goopy. - Variety. Awesome! I was pleasantly surprised they had a black mochi flavor, which is rare. There were standard flavors like cookie dough, strawberry, cookies and cream, etc.... There were additional flavors that are not common, including kulfi, which includes pistachio and cardamom. Their staffers also told me that certain flavors, like black sesame, are seasonal, so something to be aware of. They also sell pup cups (yes, for your pet), pints, quarts, ice cream cakes of small, medium, and large sizes. - Cost. For 2 small cups at $15 is not unreasonable, especially given the quality of the ice cream. - Service. Pretty good. We were able to ask for samples before we made an order. My friends and I were there on a relatively busy evening. When my husband and I asked for specific samples, their staffers talked to each other to ensure who was helping whom, to streamline service and our orders, which I found very helpful. All the staffers I talked to were sweet and helpful. When I asked them questions about specific flavors, they had answers, including providing me contextual information. - Layout. There is indoor seating, including tables and chairs, and high bar seating area. It's spacious enough inside to accommodate customers whether they stand or sit to eat, including just looking at what they have. - Location. Fairly easy to find and conveniently located to other shops and restaurants. - Parking. There is street parking available and parking lots nearby, but availability will depend on day and time you come. What's Not - Acoustics. They play music at a relatively loud volume. Noise carries easily inside. As such, it's difficult to hear others, including having a conversation with those you are with. - Parking. There is street parking, but availability will depend on the day and time you arrive, so be prepared to not find parking; spending time looking for parking, and; walking. Final Answer Definitely a place worth returning.

Fried to a perfect crisp, the chicken was tender and juicy! The sauces come on the side so you can dip or pour the sauce over the chicken.

I did not expect a boba restaurant to have amazing fried chicken, so I will def be coming back again for it. The red bean egg puffs were good but I wish they had more red bean inside the puffs.

HeyTea at Natick Mall is a welcome addition to a suburban mall landscape that does not have many…read moreoptions at this level, and the excitement around the opening has carried over into a genuine regular following among locals who have been waiting for a closer location. We walked into a clean, modern store with a layout that is easy to navigate, situated near the Apple Store on the first floor in a spot that is straightforward to find. The drinks hold up to what the brand does well elsewhere. The coconut mango boom is the natural starting point and delivers the same generous mango chunks and light sweetness that made it popular at other locations. The cloud crisp grape is worth ordering if you want something more refreshing and fruit forward, and anything in the mango or grape family is a reliable direction to go when deciding between options. The fruit teas are consistently well made and the matcha holds up for anyone leaning in that direction. The staff is notably friendly and has been a consistent highlight even during the busier stretches that come with being a newer location building its audience. On a good visit the drinks come out quickly and the overall experience is smooth. Wait times are the main variable worth planning around. The location can run long during peak hours, and the gap between the estimated and actual wait has frustrated enough people that it is worth checking the app before heading over or ordering ahead when possible. A 30 minute estimate stretching past 60 minutes is not unheard of here, particularly on weekends. The drinks are good enough that the wait tends to feel worth it once you have the cup in hand, but managing expectations on timing makes the whole experience easier.

If you want to try them all, they sell cookie gift boxes with all of the flavors inside. The cookie box also makes for a great gift. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!
