Good boba place to try! They close at 12am which is great for a late night sweet drink. The bad part is that there is only one table for indoor seating with two seats. The pretty place is small as well. It's not greatly organized and doesn't have the best decorations. I got a brown sugar boba drink and it was good. The drink itself wasn't heavy and it wasn't too sweet. The boba itself was nice and chewy. The service was okay. I ordered through the kiosk so there wasn't any customer service other than receiving my drink. But the drink didn't take long to make. Overall, a good place to grab some boba.

There are many boba spots in the International District and this one is a good one. It's a really small spot with it being basically a counter you order at and that's it. They have plenty of drink options. I appreciate them doing what they could to make the space inviting with what they had to work with. You order through a kiosk so not a ton of service. The drinks are good though and they hit the spot. I would say that the main appeal of this spot is the fact it stays open until midnight which makes this place a great option for when you're hanging out with friends.

Tried the QQQ milk tea. The milk and tea was a good balance. The boba, grass jelly, and pudding all tasted great. Service was fast. You order at the kiosk and the drink gets made. It was a small shop so no place to sit

A great little dessert after Honeycourt. With a kiosk & 1 worker, the service went pretty fast. It wasn't busy, maybe a handful of people. The drink was delicious. I can actually taste the tea in the drink & not just powder and milk. Place is small so when it's busy, might have to wait outside. Will be back again!

I had to come back! The only time I ever get to drink Gaga Tea is on Fridays because of their hours. They're open Monday-Thursday from 5 PM-12 AM, Friday-Saturday from 12 PM-2 AM, and Sunday from 12 PM-12 AM. Since I work in Seattle during the weekdays and I'm never really in the area on weekends, Friday is literally my only chance. My friend told me to try the cheesy avocado drink and I was very skeptical at first... but it was actually really good. They leave the avocado chunks in, and the boba they use complements the drink perfectly. I was pleasantly surprised. I do wish they opened every day at 12 PM it would be way more convenient for people... but honestly, my wallet would probably suffer . As for service, it's self-ordering, and there's usually one worker there. They're helpful if you ask questions, but if you try to make small talk, they might look a little confused about why you're talking to them lol

Stumbled upon this small bubble tea shop so decided to try it. There's a variety of drinks and you order on a kiosk, the person working didn't really interact with us at all and there's little to no seating. When we went there wasn't a wait and our drinks came out pretty quickly. I ordered a green tea with cream and boba. The drink was delicious and the boba was alright, not my favorite. Overall I would go back and just not order boba.

Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #97 I finally had a chance to visit Gaga Tea recently - their hours aren't that convenient since I'm usually in the CID on weekdays for lunch when they don't open until 5PM. On the flipside, they close pretty late (Midnight or 2AM, depending on the day), so it's definitely more of a late-night boba kind of place. In terms of the shop itself, it's tiny. There are only two seats inside, a kiosk to order, and a small waiting area. Given the hours, I assumed it would be an evening hangout spot, but that's obviously incorrect. Pearl Milk Tea, Roasted Oolong Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet ($5.25) - They add so much creamer into this drink that it's very powdery, almost to the point of being gritty. The flavor of the creamer almost completely covers up the taste of the tea, relegating the tieguanying, very slightly grassy and roasty, to the very end of the aftertaste. There is definitely way too much creamer in the drink. At least less ice is appropriate and at 50% sweet, it's pleasant and not overwhelming. The boba is actually quite good. Smooth sphere, slightly sweetened, plenty of bounce and a good chew level. I would love to see the boba soaked in a stronger brown sugar or honey mixture, but I can't really complain given the price. There's not much more I can ask for from a boba shop like this. Milk Tea Rating: 3/5 Boba Rating: 4.5/5 Gaga Tea definitely has a place in the boba landscape of Seattle. While their boba is average to possibly above average, their prices really make up for the difference. Bathrooms - None customer accessible

Gaga Tea is such a cute and tiny boba shop in Seattle's Chinatown. It features an endearing duck theme, and its drinks are quite good. You can order using the kiosk right in front of the entrance or directly at the register if you'd rather pay with cash. It's definitely not a sit-down type of spot; there's only a small table to the left of the entrance. DRINK: Beat the F* Girl (4/5) - Literally only got this because of the interesting name (lol). It's a strawberry-flavored fruit tea that was really refreshing. I added lychee jelly to it, and I thought that paired nicely with the drink. A little on the sweeter side, so I would try to adjust that next time. I enjoyed this, but I must preface that I am a simple girl who enjoys most fruit teas after a heavy meal. SERVICE: Didn't really interact with the staff directly because my friends and I ordered at the kiosk. However, since the shop is really small, we had a nice view of them making our drinks behind the counter. They were super efficient, and our drinks came out almost immediately after ordering. TLDR// Cute, duck-themed tea/boba shop in Seattle's Chinatown. I would return for a fast, refreshing drink in the adorable cups (pictured) if I'm ever back in the area.

Small shop with only a couple seats and super quick service. You order at a kiosk then they call your number. Also I think the price is really good for the serving size Crema jasmine tea with boba: 4/5. The I thought the drink was good but the jasmine flavor isn't very strong. if you want a stronger jasmine flavor, the milk tea is probably a better choice

Food: got the green grape green tea slush with 50% sugar. I wish they had a 75% sugar option but it was still good and had both those flavors. Service: there's a self service screen at the front where you order. Ambiance: it's a cute place with limited seating.

The teas were really tasty and seemed to be made with good quality ingredients. I also loved the duck theme and decor, though I don't fully understand it. It's mostly grab and go with nowhere to really sit inside. The staff were great about answering questions but the drinks took maybe a little more time than expected. I mostly picked mine because it looked tasty and had an interesting name. Would come back!

Overall: B // 4 stars Stopped by this tea joint just conveniently across the street from the Seattle Pinball Museum. They got a cute cup with intriguingly refreshing flavors like Strawberry Lemon Green tea which works well given the syrups they have. These drinks could be elevated to the next level with some fresh fruit or garnish.

Pretty average boba spot on the cheaper side which balances out. There are tablets to order from but minimal seating, definitely a grab and go spot. I ordered the GAGA Milk Tea and added boba but did heard the workers clown on me since that's just the Pearl Milk Tea. They were confused if it's any different (assuming training new employees). They're the same price after all but I wanted to see what options there were. However, their hours are insane if true. Not many boba spots open past 11PM. GAGA Milk Tea w/ Boba - boba was chewy and slightly sweet but could have more flavor. Milk tea was fair, a classic black tea with creamer. At the price point of just over $5 which was normal years ago, can't complain too much.
