    Milk tea
    Christa M.

    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.

    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!

    Here's a more natural, human-sounding Google review (cleaned up, correct spelling, and grounded in…read morewhat's actually said about them online--strong coffee, pastries, and genuinely warm service ): Moka & Co. is hands down one of my favorite spots in Mesa right now. Everything about it just feels right -- the vibe, the people, and especially the food. You can tell they actually care. The staff is super welcoming and generous, not in a forced way, just genuinely good energy from the second you walk in. Food-wise, they don't miss. The honeycomb with cream cheese inside is insane -- sweet, rich, and something you don't really see anywhere else. The Dubai chocolate latte is a must-try too, super smooth and indulgent without being over the top. The beef samosas are perfectly crispy and packed with flavor, and the chocolate pistachio croissant is easily one of the best pastries I've had in a while. Honestly, every time I go I end up trying something new and it's always solid. You can tell they put real thought into everything they serve. Definitely one of those spots you keep coming back to.

I came across Moka & Co while searching for the best Dubai-style coffee in the area, and I'm so glad I gave it a try. Their Dubai iced coffee is really good--while it didn't quite top the one I had in New York, it definitely ranks as my second favorite. The only downside is the price. A 16 oz drink was $10, which feels a bit steep for a medium-sized coffee. Overall, though, it's a great option if you're craving a Dubai-style iced coffee without leaving Arizona.

    4/29/26- I really enjoy coming to this coffee shop and tend to save it for more special occasions…read more I ordered a Carmel Macchiato with Almond milk and extra ice. Service was quick and he made sure it was just right. It was also nice to chat about coffee with someone who really has a detailed taste for it as well. Coffee shop appears to be clean and has a nice feel to it. There are places to sit indoors or out. Thank you

    I normally don't write reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough that I felt compelled to…read moresay something. I stopped in around 6:00 pm to get some work done before a cycling class. The first thing the cashier told me was that the espresso machines were already shut down and that only hot tea was available. I asked what time the shop closed, and he said 7:00 pm. Since I still had time, I decided to stay and purchased tea. After sitting down, I was told--due to construction--that they would be "locking up soon." I assumed this still meant 7:00 pm. I received my tea around 6:10 pm, and by 6:20 pm I was told they would be locking the doors and turning off the lights. At that point, it felt passive-aggressive and misleading. If I had been told upfront that the shop was closing early, I would not have ordered anything. I specifically asked what time you were closing, and that information was not communicated clearly until after I had already paid. Additionally, if the shop is supposedly open until 7:00 pm, it's confusing why the espresso machines were already turned off at 6:00 pm. As for the tea -- 2/10. I didn't even finish it. I'm sure the coffee may be good, but this is the first time I've been to a coffee shop where the espresso machine was shut down an hour before closing. Lastly, as a study space, it's very limited: only two tables with about eight chairs total. There are outlets, but not nearly enough to support people working. Overall, the lack of clear communication and the rushed, uncomfortable atmosphere made this a disappointing experience.

    Absolutely obsessed with this bookstore café. It has everything I'm looking for in a study spot!…read moreThere's plenty of space to study both inside and outdoors on the patio, which makes it super easy to settle in for a productive session (or stay way longer than planned). The second you walk in, you're surrounded by a romance book-lover's dream. The ambiance feels like stepping into a cozy Hogwarts library. It's warm, magical, and the perfect place to get lost in a book. There is also a vintage-style Photo Booth that will print out two photo strips for $5! I also love the story behind this place starting online and growing into a physical bookstore that now carries such a fun variety of books, plus the cutest hip and trendy merch (hats, book pins, shirts, and more). The coffee is good, and their menu is surprisingly extensive. I ordered the cookie butter latte and was genuinely impressed by both the size and the taste. On top of all that, the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Whether you're looking to study, find community, or just yap with fellow book lovers, this is such a fun and inviting space!

They sell books, nicknacks, coffee, and even have a photo booth which was cool. It prints out 2 sets of three pictures for $5. The coffee I tried was the banana pudding coffee with banana milk. It sorta tasted like banana, mostly just a milk forward coffee. Just based on personal preference, it was a bit too sugary sweet for me, not as much of that coffee flavor coming through. The cashier was sweet though and even talked about a TV show with me that she noticed on my shirt, which is always nice and welcoming. Worth checking out.

The space is extremely comfortable -- cozy seating, welcoming energy, and an outdoor area that's truly remarkable. It's the kind of place where you can meet a friend, get some work done, or simply unwind with a great cup of coffee. Let's talk about the coffee -- because it's extremely well done. You can genuinely taste the flavor in every sip. I'm a nitro, cold brew girl -- always black -- and they nail it every time. Smooth, bold, and perfectly balanced. That said, I'm a total sucker for their seasonal selections. Somehow, they always make it hard not to switch things up. The seasonal flavors are thoughtfully crafted and never overpowering -- just the right touch to make your drink feel special. The pastries? Incredible. Fresh, delicious, and the perfect pairing to any drink. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or a full coffee moment, you won't be disappointed. Another major plus: the prices are reasonable, and the line moves fast. Even when it's busy, the service is efficient without ever feeling rushed. The customer service is genuinely great -- everyone is extremely nice, welcoming, and happy to help. It's such a refreshing change to experience a place where the vibe is consistently excellent. They also offer their merch, coffee to go, and other home items, which makes it easy to take a little piece of the experience with you. Overall, this coffee shop delivers on every level -- flavor, atmosphere, service, and value. It's cozy, inviting, and full of good energy. Definitely a must-try spot that you'll find yourself coming back to again and again.
