Elizabeth M.

Loved this place. So many options to choose from we couldn't decide. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No line but we did go on a Friday around 11am

Drinks are good, but boba topping needs work. They have a pretty wide menu with lots of options to choose from. I highly recommend their Punches or Flavored Green Teas. Their boba topping, however, is a bit too hard and isn't chewy like it should be. * Jasmine Green Tea: 6/10 - strong sugar powder flavor but can't taste the tea * Passion Fruit Green Tea: 8/10 - good flavor * Boba (Topping): 3/10 - way harder than it should be * Red Bean (Topping): 7/10 - average The people there were really nice though. We also didn't have to wait too long for our drinks. The place itself is rather small, but decorated really cute with plushies. Not the best, but also not the worst.

I have been here a few times. I ordered a limited time S'mores slush. They have toppings and add-ons you can add but I had it plain. [[HIGHLIGHT]]No seating inside but they do some games like Jenga you can play.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is outside seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were quick to make my order.

This Boba spot is, by far, the best I've tried in the entire IE. Stop by and check it out for yourself. Ray, the manager, is always super cool and helpful with recommendations.

If you're looking to spend your money on good boba.. this is not the place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sadly I took my 2 teens to check out KungFu Tea in Riverside and the tiny place was overcrowded with young employees just hanging out talking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Once I placed my order, they all quickly went to work. Unfortunately they were not trained on making the drinks. They were all asking for help and the recipe. Unfortunately our milk teas tasted like water. We won't be returning to this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's small and dirty and the drinks were awful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Sorry, but this place looks like abandoned. Was empty when I got there. Looked like Kung Fu Tea was the only store that's open in the area. However, it was kinda hard to find the store; especially the sign is not visible enough and their open sign was not even turn on. Since I was in the area, I decided to try other drinks on their menu. I picked Caribbean Breeze and it's not the taste I was expecting; not my favorite for sure. Maybe I should just try the most populars on their menu: Taro Slush Kung Fu Milk Tea Honey Oolong Tea Strawberry Milk Mango Snow Slush Strawberry Lemonade Passionfruit Green Tea

Cute little boba spot! The employees working Friday night were nice and attentive! They have outdoor seating in front and even have board games to check out! Paid around $15 for 2 large drinks.

The chocolate was good but I was VERY disappointed to see that there was NO crunch in the kataifi & it tasted like coconut also was soggy and felt it had been refrigerated for days.

I ordered a Matcha Milk Cap earlier in the evening and I personally was satisfied! I know some shop's takes on matcha might not be for everyone but for me, I liked it. It was consistent with the other locations so that's fine by me. I've always enjoyed the salt milk cap items too. The boba was nice and service was pretty quick at the time I arrived. There's also a cool place to chill outside and around the spot. I'll definitely come again, especially since it's closer to me now. read more

I like this chain a lot but this location gets the recipes off a little sometimes. They're usually fast when it comes to making your drink. I did feel very uncomfortable and unsafe because they allowed a whole family to be in there without masks and not distanced from the counter as I got my drink today. read more

Don't be fooled by the biased positive reviews! THEY ARE ALL FROM FRIENDS AND FAMILY!! TODAY was advertised as their first day opening BOGO and the OWNER HIMSELF REFUSED TO SERVE ANYONE EXCEPT FRIENDS AND FAMILY. As for a new business starting during pandemic is poor business practice to start this way, however this will be the last time I will come here. It appears they were only serving ASIAN people, and no signs were posted stating they were not open to public or anything about a private opening. Super rude and it was really hot in there. This place is off to a bad start. Do not be fooled by the phony positive reviews added to boost ratings. You can't treat customers rudely and start a successful business. read more

I'm so shocked with the negative comments. This place is the best boba spot in Riverside! We've made it a tradition to stop by for a drink after going climbing. Every drink I've tried so far has been delicious! I make sure to ask about the sweetness of each drink because I don't like things to be too sweet. The employees are super helpful to recommend and inform on the sweetness. It's a A++ for me! read more

The boba tea is great, when they get your order right! This is the 3rd occasion I have ordered in person from here and it's just as If they are not listened. I'll usually request no boba, they still add it! Sometimes I'll say add milk cap...none added to my drink. Today I said milk cap and light Ice and all they got right was no boba. Think this is a hard pass for me as they never try to make it right after waiting as long as I do for one drink. read more

This location is new in a uniquely located outdoor food court with more shops coming soon. Staff is nice and helpful to explain the menu which can be quite confusing for a first-timer. Maybe we didn't order the right drinks, but out of the 3 teas ordered we didn't like any of them. Seemed a little flavorless/watered down. I really wanted to like it as Kung Fu Tea comes with good reputation, but sadly I probably won't be returning. read more

Came in during their soft opening and was glad to have their KF Milk Tea with pudding as well as their KF green milk tea. It's was perfect on this hot day. Just the right amount of flavor and sugar that pleased my taste buds. Friendly customer service and didn't mind waiting for it since it was packed with people. Cool hip spot to just chill and have a sip. They have a great outdoor seating area to just chill out and catch up with friends. Plenty of parking in the back. Nice customer service and Covid safe.

This place is great! I've been slowly venturing into the Boba world with my younger siblings, and this place was one of our new stops. Super delicious drinks and the store itself was adorbs. The staff were super great too and really accommodating and the quality of our drinks was awesome. Buuuut...the straws...Were teeny tiny and made it impossible to actually enjoy the boba. Every sip just meant a clogged straw, and by the time we reached the end of our drinks, we had a ton of boba at the bottom of our cups that were left behind. Maybe update the straws, y'all? read more

I don't I ever thrown out a tea drink before but the king fu tea had a weird taste to it like maybe some of the other syrup got cross contaminated but I had to get rid of it. Also to note the tea itself and boba lack flavor. Even the 99 ranch grocery store make better black milk tea than this for a much cheaper price too. The positive review brought my attention here but now I think the positive reviews are the typical people that enjoys sugary flavor drinks rather than tea enthusiasts. read more

I went to the soft opening for this Kung Fu Tea and had a good experience. I got the Caribbean Breeze Slush, which was recommended by the cashier and it was really good, especially for someone that isn't a big tropical fruit drink guy! The customer service was great, they were very attentive and made sure I was satisfied with my order. They did let me know upfront that their boba was a bit hard because one of their machines wasn't working properly. Since it was only their soft opening, I'm sure they will have a fix soon enough.

I'm a huge fan of Kungfu Tea, and I used to like this location when they first opened. But within the last year, their quality has gone way downhill. Their boba often taste old and isn't chewy. Today I got a Winter Melon green milk tea with boba, and while the drink is okay, they added brown sugar boba that is used for their "wow" ice milk drinks (aka really really extremely sweet boba). My drink is extremely sweet, boba is hard and too sweet, I'm very disappointed. I was so excited when this location first opened. I've given this location so many tries and I keep getting disappointed time and time again read more

Best boba in the riverside area! I always get the Kung fu black milk tea, basic, but it's just so good! Drinks can run on the sweet side so I would suggest ordering less sugar. The boba has typically been consistently soft and has a nice chew, except this past time it was a little bit harder than normal, but still tasty. I'm giving it 4 stars because service always takes forever if you order in person. They seem to always be understaffed each time I go. Pro tip: get the app, it'll make your life so much easier and you can collect points and a free drink every couple of visits! Although the service is slow, the staff is always really friendly. My sister ended up getting the cocoa cream wow and said her drink was good, but was literally milk and brown sugar. Maybe she should've gotten the black tea wow milk cap instead? Side note, I really like how KF tea offers lactaid for all the lactose intolerant people that don't like alternative milk! read more

I ordered a hot fig latte and it was honestly incredible. You can tell they really care about their craft--the espresso shot was smooth and rich, and the flavor of the fig was perfectly balanced, not too sweet but still super satisfying. The fact that they make all their syrups in-house really shows in the quality. I loved it so much I ended up buying a bag of their coffee beans to take home, which says a lot.

Arcade Coffee Roasters

Arcade Coffee Roasters is a place for coffee enthusiasts and non-coffee enthusiasts alike--they…read morehave options for all ages and tastes. This is a very unique shop. I must say I was hesitant to go here for a few reasons (none of them great, to be honest). First, the name--I didn't get the connection between "arcade" and "coffee" (then again what does that matter). Second, the location: it's in an odd building that doesn't scream typical coffee shop, with restricted and unusual parking. After overcoming these nonsensical, self-created mental barriers, we walked inside and saw that this is a sophisticated operation with wonderful products, employees, and a truly unique experience. When we entered, we saw a very nice menu with pictures showcasing the drinks and highlighting what makes each one special. The barista was super casual and friendly. She asked over the counter if we had any questions and told us to let her know when we were ready. Her welcoming approach was perfect for first-time visitors. We ordered the Mango Sticky Rice matcha and the Cherry Glaze matcha. Both were delicious, and it was clear that quality is a major focus here. The matchas weren't overloaded with syrup like some places; instead, they tasted naturally infused--subtle, balanced, and perfect. For snacks, we tried the salmon bagel and the blueberry scone. Both were excellent. The bagel was fresh and packed with flavor, again showcasing quality ingredients. The scone was one of the best I've had from a coffee shop--it tasted like it came straight from a bakery. The blueberries were large and bursting with flavor, and the texture was ideal: not too hard, not too soft. It was just right. (They should name it "Goldilocks"!) In addition to coffee, matcha, and chai tea, they also offer craft sodas and other choices for any mood. We decided to enjoy our drinks and snacks inside. As we sat, we noticed they have their own bean-roasting machine (totally unique!). I've never seen one in person, but for coffee lovers who enjoy fresh roasts, this means they bring in green coffee beans, roast them on-site, and produce the freshest, highest-quality product possible. (You could say "they have the beans" -- a little Curb Your Enthusiasm reference for fans of the show.) Aside from having "the beans," they also had a projector showing the World Cup. There are plenty of seating options: tables with chairs, standing desks, sofas, and benches. We will definitely be returning to this little slice of heaven on Earth.

I originally wanted to try just the orange blossom syrup, but the baristas suggested that vanilla bean syrup be added to tone down the potency of the orange blossom syrup while complementing it at the same time. This was a great rec since it was an enjoyable combo that didn't lose flavor after all the ice was diluted. Chocolate Chip Cookie: 5/5. A satisfying cookie that tasted better than it looks. I say this cuz I didn't see chocolate chips or chunks breaking through the dough, and the dough color was pretty pale, but looks can be deceiving, as this was a yummy treat. S'mores Brownie: 4/5. Super sweet and chocolatey and fudgy. Kinda sticky and messy due to the marshmallow topping and high sugar content, but they provide utensils for easy eating. Parking in the attached lot was quite small and cramped, but apparently there was additional parking behind the plaza.

The watermelon juice with matcha cold foam was so refreshing and had a light earthy taste. The bagel was served warm and nicely toasted. They were also generous with the blueberry cream cheese, which I appreciated. As for the cafe itself, the restroom trash was overflowing, but the restroom was otherwise clean. A couple of the tables needed to be wiped down; however, the cafe was busy when we visited and people had just gotten up from those tables, so it was understandable. :) Since this was my first Yelp Elite experience, I wasn't really sure what to fully expect. The cashier was friendly and greeted us as soon as we checked in, but he only mentioned the blueberry and sesame bagels and that they were out of regular cream cheese. Later, I seen they had a pizza bagel and I would have loved the option to try that instead. It would have been nice if all of the available choices had been mentioned during check in. Not sure if they were out or if it just wasn't mentioned. Another staff checked in on us after receiving our order and he was very nice. Overall, I had a great first Elite Experience.

This boba shop is a great place to grab a refreshing drink. They offer a nice variety, including boba, lemonade, and slushies, so there's something for everyone.

Hmm I don't know what to say. The last thing I expect when walking into a boba shop on a Thursday is for them to sell something like caneles and actually be baking them inside. Also when I stopped by the manager and a worker were experimenting making a pie called milk bar pie (apparently might be on the menu) they gave me a sample of and it was just phenomenal. Aside from that, I tried their boba and was cooked perfectly. The drinks were good. We got the mango snow, strawberry lemon green tea and the peach lemonade yogart drink. Looks like I found my new boba and pastry spot. read more

Unfortunately, my experience at this establishment today was disappointing, which was surprising given that I have always had positive experiences here in the past. I was excited to try some of their new drinks that were listed on their app, but was extremely disappointed to find that they were not actually available (coffee and their new Thai teas). To make matters worse, the employee who was working there lacked social skills and was quite rude, which only added to my frustration. While I have enjoyed this business in the past, today's experience was definitely a letdown. read more
