    Takoyaki and Taiyaki!!

    They have the best bobas!! And their snacks are amazing!! You'd better try their Japanese snacks.

    First time at Kung Fung Tea and ordered the Kung Fu Milk Tea with Crystal Boba. The Boba tasted like it had lychee in it. My friend ordered the Thai ice Tea. We then proceeded to order some appetizers: Taiyaki- red bean fish-shaped cake and something savory and Takoyaki- Octopus Balls. The fish cakes reminded me when I was stationed in Korea on a cold night and having these sweet treats. The Octopus melts in your mouth upon first bite. Kung Fu Tea makes the Boba Tea I've ever had! I encourage and recommend all to come visit Kung Fu Tea!

    We we're in the Knoxville Tennessee area and Kung Fu Tea came highly recommended to us for Boba tea. Kung Fu Tea is supposed to be the bubble tea specialist in the area, who specialize in hot and cold drinks, coffees and slushy's. This is a franchise establishment but this particular location off of I40 is extremely crowded and they are slow with making the drinks. We waited over 25 minutes for our order to be taken and there was still a wait for the tea to be made and placed in the pick up area. This wait was too long for a cup of boba tea.

    Knox has Kung Fu Tea?! What. How has this not come up on search? I kid you not, my husband and I were driving out of Lowe's (in the area) and I saw the "Kung Fu Tea" sign and I screamed.. haha. My husband tried to change lanes, someone honked and he said "sorry my wife is a huge fan of boba tea esp Kung fu tea" elite." Fun fact: When my husband and I were dating, I introduced him to boba tea and pho, it didn't take long for him to fell in love. But when he tried, Kung fu tea, he was a fan of it. Whenever we visit to Atlanta, GA or Baltimore, MD, we always pick up Kung Fu tea and that would be our "treat.." Now, I, we know there's one here..so happy! I'm beyond psyched! My favorites are Thai Tea (+tapico pearls), matcha/green tea (+tapico pearls) and the mango green tea with mango and/or lychee popping boba, I also add tapico pearls (you'll thank me). Funny thing was, I was just talking to my husband about Kung Fu tea having a location in Knoxville, thank you Jesus, you've answered my prayers! Btw this location is great! The employees are very welcoming, kind & patience. Looking forward to many more boba visits!

    Who doesn't love boba (bubble tea)? Kung Fu Tea has numerous varieties of bubble tea -- with and without the tapioca bubbles (however, the bubbles are the tastiest part!). I've never seen such variety at any bubble tea outlet. They have a huge array of regular items and clearly identify whether the teas have caffeine or allergins. In addition, you can customize the drink based on the level of sweetness. This isn't a special order sort of thing. They are used to tailoring the sweetness to your liking. Overall: I really enjoy Kung Fu Tea as a special treat. Great place for kids, dates, etc. Glad that Knoxville has it.

    I finally stopped here and now this is my forever new spot to order my Boboa Tea. I love the menu colors, I love the interior design and my drink ( Almond Tea ) was amazing. My son drink , he said it wasn't that sweet therefore hopefully if we can go back we can try something different.

    Hard to find a boba place around in this area. Taste just like any other kung fu tea - which is a good thing. Our orders came out quick. Place was clean and staff were nice.

    5 stars. Take my money. Let me start a franchise. Chefs kiss. The whole 9 yards. This place is incredible. Attached to a restaurant, quick service, extremely clean, very crowded. This place is popular and refreshing. My mango peach tea was incredible to take on our walk during a hot day.

    I love this place! Everything is so efficient! The walls are stark white and makes this place shine from the inside out! I wish there was more room while waiting for my boba tea. This place is always busy and will a great reason. Boba tea is great! If you haven't had it, go get it! It's so great!

    So my husband has mentioned bubble tea for several months. We enjoy drinking tea, but I didn't understand the concept of bubble tea. It just didn't make sense in my head. I was picturing tea with some kind of carbonated liquid. So we tried it out for the first time and it was pretty good. It is not what I expected at all. The bubbles are actually little chewy balls at the bottom of your tea. I would recommend you to stir your drink before you drink it so you can have bubbles throughout and not just at the end. My husband had tea and he really enjoyed it. There are steps that you follow that help guide you through the ordering process. The young lady at the cash register was very nice, friendly and she did a awesome job explaining our options. There is caffeinated tea, non-dairy tea, slushies and more.

    This place was a hit with my family. The Taro Tea was to die for! Haven't had good tarp bubble tea in a while and this hit the spot. I went twice in one week it was amazing!

    Covid mask policy was observed by all parties which is a 5 star rating for me! I would definitely recommend looking at the menu online if it's your first time ordering. The girls at the register taking your order are so nice and friendly aNd help you out. I love boba tea.

    With the addition of boba, Knoxville is indeed growing! Got my mom hooked cause before there was honestly no decent boba place in Knoxville. Taste wise is exactly what you would expect boba to taste like. I got a regular milk tea with bubbles, half sugar. Slightly a bit sweeter than other places at half sugar, but this is all down to preference. More importantly, they seem pretty serious about Covid precautions with all employees wearing gloves and masked. Masks are required in the store. I think it's great that Knoxville got a Kung fu Tea and my mom will definitely visit when I go back to Philly haha

Side note the walk up window was so cute. Immediately upon walking in I was in awe. The attention to detail in this shop was top tier design. The ladies working when we went were so sweet and very helpful. I also really love the swag that they have. I am kicking myself for not buying the denim hat! Now onto the coffee. I tried the Blueberry Crisp Latte. The notes of the blueberry were good. Not overpowering and just the right bit of top and bottom. I love to taste the flavor as a finishing note as well. My daughter had a Vanilla Frappe which she enjoyed. I definitely will return whenever I am in Knoxville.

It was also nice to not feel herded along like you would at a Starbucks or donut shops that happen to sell coffee. I cannot vouch for any other flavors yet, I need more time to really get into it - see you soon! Get here!

I ordered The Farmer, a chicken biscuit with cheese, bacon, and apple butter. The biscuit was warm and fresh, the bacon was crispy, and the chicken patty was quite substantial. The poor thing was drowning in apple butter though, which made it too wet (and too sweet). Even scraping some of it off it was already too soggy. A tad less sauce and it would be perfectly balanced. The smashbrowns had a nice crisp and I enjoyed the kick of the pepper jam. Also, big fan of the cute coffee bar. I could taste the hints of maple in the coffee. If I have to eat out for breakfast, Maple Street seems to be a good choice. And yes, this location is on Kingston Pike not Maple Street.

Unfortunate for me though, I had to sit right under an air conditioning duct. I bet that the gentlemen were wishing that it was my girlfriend who had that seat. (I think you get the points.) Our meals were as fresh as can be, and tasty too. We had no problem cleaning our plates. It was fairly crowded when we got there. But if you don't mind sharing a table, you'll find a spot for sure. There's outside seating if you like. Quick Tip: Get there early, or get there late, cause if you get there during prime chow down, you'll be lucky to find a seat. Even the cold zone will be occupied. You may want to wear a bra....Just in case.

They serve Counter Culture coffee, a North Carolina roaster, also found in town at Old City Java and Wild Love, but nowhere I've seen in West Knox. There's natural light in the café enhanced with cool toned ceiling lights accompanied by minimalist pink and gold accents with natural wood features and a few fake plants. The music was mainly rap and R&B. Every seat has a table, though PPC doesn't offer much in the way of comfy seating, as furnishings are ikea-style chairs and metal stools. There are a couple outdoor tables for nice weather. I hope as this the Café establishes roots, we'll see more seasonal drink menus, comfier seating options, and more (real) greenery. Looking forward to trying more of their drink offerings and seeing what lies in store for them!
