    Watermelon Pineapple Slush and Dragonfruit Smoothie
    Lisa L.

    It's our first time in the Cannon Beach area of Mesa, and we found all these new restaurants and shops. Have to try the Boba place. The decor is simple, the drink selection is endless. We just ordered at the Dragonfruit smoothie and Watermelon Pineapple Slushy. I really liked the Dragonfruit smoothie, so very refreshing, not too sweet. The Watermelon Pineapple Slushy is the perfect tropical drink, almost like a margarita. So this new Boba shop is a 5 Star for me.

    Strawberry matcha

    Stopped by here since we were already in the area. They were fairly busy when we got in but it didn't take that long to get our drinks. I appreciated the actual bits of strawberry in my strawberry matcha drink and that they offered milk alternatives. The only downside was the matcha to milk to strawberry ratio wasn't quite to my taste. It was heavily on the matcha side and overwhelmed the strawberry, so when I got home I added more oat milk and ice which helped a lot. My son said the same about his. After I added more milk and some sugar, he enjoyed his much more. So, just keep that in mind if you want to try this option. Again, that's to our taste. Some might really enjoy how far it leans with the matcha than us. It's a little small inside but has some seating. Would probably recommend it as a grab and go spot.

    Earl Grey milk tea

    I wish I could have given more stars...we got here at 4:00pm on Sunday, after a long day at revel surf. We ordered 4 drinks- 2 milk teas and 2 slushes with boba. The drinks were pretty good. The boba was pretty good....but the poor girl working was by herself! We waited 40 min for our drinks, didn't walk out of there until 4:42....poor thing was alone and probably had about 8 orders she had to make by herself. I don't know what management was thinking but get some more help if you're gonna have a boba place next to a surf park. I'm not sure I'll be back based on this...

    Tons of drink options here!! My friend and I stopped by here to get a lil sweet treat and chat for a bit.

    Employee wasn't friendly and only came out from the back when he put our drinks on the counter. We ordered on the kiosk and it was easy to use. The inside was clean and the drinks were good. Customer service couldve been a lot better.

    This place looks very fairly new and its nicely decorated inside. We stopped by during the week and it seemed that only one employee was working. He was towards the back making drinks when we walked in and didn't say anything to us. We placed our orders on the kiosk and we sat down. After a few minutes, our order was called. There was practically no interaction with the employee as he went back to making more drinks after setting our drinks on the counter. My milk tea was ok - nothing special. The thai tea was also pretty basic but it was also just ok. The menu selection is pretty big and they do have some good looking drinks. The inside was clean. There are a few spots to sit down and they have a bathroom as well.

    This is a cute little boba shop! The drinks were great and refreshing, not too sweet- even the smoothies or slushes. The cashier was so smiley the entire time and fast.

    Regular Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and Large Classic Black Milk Tea with boba
    Daniel H.

    This boba place was closer to us than majority of boba places in the valley and we found out about this since we also went to Hi5 Nails and Moku Hawaiian Grill next to this place. The first time we came here, I asked them when the grand opening was and they said they don't have one or planned to have one (but maybe that might change). They were all nice and definitely were trying to train which was fine. There was an app you can download and order online to pick up. It was clean and new inside and their menu has a lot of choices. We ordered the regular Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and large Classic Black Milk Tea with boba the first time we went here. They both tasted good to me and I would recommend either one. I tried the House Milk Tea on my most recent visit and I definitely would choose the Classic Black Milk Tea over the House Milk Tea. The boba was chewy and it was good to me. We definitely found a go-to boba place since this was probably like less than 10 minutes away from us. We'll be back for more boba in the future.

    First time at Bobatime, I wish I could rave about it but nothing exceptional about it. I got the Taro milk tea and the mango peach smoothie. The taro milk tea was okay, I just didn't think the taro flavor was strong. I have to say the tapioca were actually decent. Maybe I need to try other boba options to determine if they are better.

    Soft Opening in East Mesa! We drove by this lovely shop and had to check it out because it's BOBA! I saw the cutest drink that has star shaped mango jelly and fun colors called Galaxy Iced Tea, it had to be mine. The drink is so flavorful and fun to drink, I recommend. They also have large 32oz drink sizes too which is great to see. We got the Peach Strawberry tea in this size. Go check them out during their soft opening and show them some love.

    Other than tasting like the tea was a little watered down it was really good. this area looks like it's about to take off and after a good day at Revel I would swing by here for a drink

    S. Coups decoration area!

    Self serve kiosk was quick and easy to order and customize my order! The workers were friendly and the place was not too busy and had enough seating for small hang outs! They prepared my drink quickly! They had the Seventeen promotion and it was so nicely decorated the drink was yummy and not too sweet!

    It's really hard to find boba with good texture in Arizona and boba time does it really well. Based in California, I'm glad they are here to show AZ boba shop how boba texture should really taste and feel like.

    Love my Strawbetty Matcha milk tea, extra strawberry boba!

I was glad to see it wasn't busy so I was in and out in minutes. I couldn't decide what I wanted, so I got 2 drinks because you can Uber go wrong with that! The Mango Frappe was excellent! Nice and smooth, creamy and refreshing. I love that you can customize the sweetness level and amount of ice, too. The Roasted Brown Sugar Fresh Milk is a classic that's always a winner. The restaurant is clean and well-lit inside. They also offer some snack items including mango with sticky rice which I haven't seen at other Daboba locations. Prices are average and there's lots of parking outside. I'm glad I don't live too far away from this one because you know I'll be back sooner or later!

That said, I also understand this is a boba shop first, so I wasn't expecting the matcha to be absolutely immaculate or prepared like a specialty matcha café. On the positive side, the boba was actually really good -- chewy, fresh, and had a great texture. The Lychee Seasons Tea was refreshing and enjoyable, especially if you like fruity drinks. Overall, I'd come back for their tea drinks and boba. If you're a matcha purist, the roasted matcha may not be the standout item on the menu, but the shop still delivered a solid boba experience.

I got the Triple Kill, mainly cause I was a bit tired, it has Thai tea, coffee, milk and dark chocolate. I substitute for oat milk (+$0.50) and added Brown sugar boba (don't remember the cost). I thought the pricing was average cost, and the wait time was extremely bare minimum. What caught my eye was the cool claw machine. I wish I had single $1.00 to play it. It costs $1/attempt. The place was clean and so was the restroom. In my boba picture it looks watery, but it's not after you mix the dark chocolate in the drink at the bottom of the drink. Now I usually drive home while drinking boba and have leftover to enjoy while home, but not here. The drink was so good I practically inhaled it in the parking lot! I wanted to buy another, but I didn't want to go overboard on the caffeine. The Triple Kill definitely did the trick, woke me up, I was up all night! lol I think the card benefit is really cool, giving you a 50% off on your 6th drink, and it still counts towards the 10. I'll be back to explore the other options and checkout their specials menu! FYI.. I see my receipt is on the drink, my total was $7 and some change, I just like to tip extra for people, that's why the total is $11+
