Hmm, well, in retrospect, I'm not exactly sure why I decided to pop into this boba place, seeing…read morethat 1. I'm from San Francisco (one of the boba meccas on the West Coast) and 2. I never really got into the whole boba hype when I was growing up. Still, the prospect of boba on the other side of the Atlantic piqued my interest when I was in the neighborhood... First things first: you'll definitely feel the dollar-to-pound conversion when you peruse the menu. While I am no stranger to paying extra for some of the fancier toppings (like jellies), I was a little disappointed to see that even the boba tapioca balls cost an extra £0.50. (Maybe this is normal outside of the States, where the drink is known as "milk tea" instead of "boba"? Because otherwise I find it hard to believe that boba can be sold without, well, the boba...) I went with the Assam black milk tea because I find that choosing the most basic of milk teas is the best way to evaluate a boba spot. It wasn't as sweet as the basic black milk teas that I usually can find in the U.S. (understandable, as most drinks in the U.S. are probably sugarier). The boba was fresh (to be expected, as I had pay extra for it...) At the end of the day, I had paid £4.50 for the regular size of some pretty average tasting boba. The shop itself is pretty tiny, though the seating is pretty hip-looking.

It's a welcoming little spot on Dean St which is now the quieter part of Soho due to Crossrail construction, but it's a perfect place to sugar up and chill out. The wooden benches are not the most comfy (a lil shallow maybe) but the staff are friendly and some of the desserts look stonking. I would happily come back and try loads of stuff from the menu, but this time we just got a regular bubble tea with warm hazelnut milk and mango chewy bits (decoco apparently). The cup exploded a lil when we pierced it, but that's no biggie. I'll be back!

I had never tried grapefruit tea before, and it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. They freshly squeezed the grapefruit to order, then added the juice and plenty of grapefruit pulp to the tea. The fresh citrus paired beautifully with the fragrant jasmine tea, making it light and refreshing. I especially loved the bits of grapefruit pulp, it made the drink taste even fresher. The staff were pleasant, and ordering was quick and straightforward. The only downside is that the sweetness and ice levels are fixed, so there's no option to customize them. Other than that, it's a charming little drink shop with a few indoor seats, making it a nice place to take a break and enjoy a refreshing drink.

It did get a bit cramped in here with the limited space. I ordered a salty cream green tea (I think) with boba, 30% sweet. Overall it was ok.

I would definitely come here again and try different options. As I was on a Bubble Tea escapade in London, I was trying many different places.

I stopped by a couple times trying to get a fresh grapefruit green tea. First time, they said they couldn't do it because they ran out of large cups. Was kind of bummed out.

Expect to wait, and expect them to run out of large cups. This is perhaps the only(?) bubble tea place in the area. It's worth the wait if you're looking to quench your bubble tea cravings!
