I ordered a Mocha with the tapioca boba. It was delicious but nothing special, specifically with the boba which is why I gave it 4 stars. The store is a nice size and a good amount of tables for seating. I also took a picture of the little claw machines they have. Whenever I have ordered from here it has been quick and the staff is nice. read more

Decent prices compared to some other places. Some are lower some are higher priced, this is right in the middle. Many options from fruit teas to milk teas. Taste was good. Only missing a star because I love lychee jellies and they didn't have them. read more

Woah, for once an actually legitimately good Kung Fu Tea franchise post-Covid. I had almost written off this chain but decided give this location another try for the St. Patrick's Day special. I actually have in my history that I visited here on three separate occasions, once in 2019 (pre-pandemic), and twice in 2020 (post-pandemic), with some scathing notes stating that the boba was rock hard all three times and giving the place a tentative 1/5 score. I remember back on my very first visit the place was completely full with customers sipping on drinks and hanging out in store. If I remember correctly, this was the only second wave-type chain boba shop in the entirety of Metro Detroit at that point in time, so it kind of made sense. For my most recent visit over the weekend, this Kung Fu Tea location, now with way more competition, seems to be primarily a takeout shop. I ordered via the app, expecting that the drink would be ready by the time I reached the store. When I got there, I found out that apparently at this store you still have to notify them before they start making the drinks. It only adds an additional 5 minutes or so, so it's not really an issue. Regular Pistachio Almond Slush ($5.95) - We just got this to try it out since I had to buy two drinks for the deal. The strong artificial almond flavor really punches you in the face, while the pistachio quietly dances in the background. Otherwise, it's a pretty normal slush texture. The sweetness is on point at 100%. I personally wouldn't get this again because there are other drinks I prefer, but I think it's a perfectly drinkable cold treat. (3/5) Regular Matcha Milk Strike, Large, 50% Sweet, Less Ice w/ Brown Sugar Wow Boba ($7.40) - I originally ordered the sesame matcha, but the store was out of sesame mix so I had to change it to the normal matcha. The matcha here has the distinctive kind of grassy and earthy flavor of a culinary matcha, which is appreciated given that some other places use an almost flavorless green powder in their matcha drinks. The drink feels thick and creamy even though there's no milk cap on it. Again the sweetness is perfect at 50% (I'm surprised that the app didn't allow me to adjust from 100%, but I asked the owner to tone it down the 50%). The boba, which is very inconsistent between locations, is actually pretty good here. It's soaked in a brown sugar syrup, giving it the characteristic brown sugar taste, and allowing the exterior to generate a bit of a sticky texture. The chew is just a bit too hard, but overall it's the best I've had from KFT since the pandemic began. (4/5) Bathrooms - One unisex, pretty spacious, bathroom in the back. This was the only good experience I've had at a KFT since 2019. To be honest, I don't think I would go here again, but that's because there are other newer boba shops in the area I prefer. It's still a solid, albeit not outstanding, shop to visit to quench any boba craving. read more

Decent boba spot! I've been here multiple times with friends and family. The service and vibes are good. My favorite drinks are the Cocoa Cream Wow Milk Cap and Thai Milk tea. I've also had other drinks like the Mango slush, Mango Green tea, and so on. read more

I'm so glad I found this place. I'm a huge milk tea with boba fan and I really miss all the shops back in California. Upon entering the place is cute with plenty of tables to sit and relax. There is a huge menu available upon entering the shop. There are so many different options you can pick and choose from. Overall, the shop was clean and inviting. I decided to try the WOW Oreo per the cashier's recommendation since I can't have caffeine while I'm pregnant. There was a huge order ahead of mine and I thought I was going to be waiting for my one drink for a little while they accommodate the large order, but I was wrong. We probably waited no less than 5 minutes until my number was called to pick up. I could feel the warm dark sugary boba at the bottom of the cup. It was so good. I love that the chunks of Oreo weren't too big that couldn't get through the straw. Bonus for me at least, the milk wasn't too sweet which was perfect because the brown sugar boba was incredibly sweet already. The boba was cooked perfectly, not too chewy, or undercooked. I can't wait to go back and order more from their menu. The options are endless. read more

This Kung Fu Tea is one of the better locations out there. They are consistent, friendly, and their mobile orders are always ready on time! I definitely recommend using their app for rewards. It's also easy to use and you can view the menu at your own leisure...no more panic ordering at the counter. My new favorite is their Black Tea Wow Milk Cap (earl grey black tea with brown sugar bubbles and a creamy milk cap) - medium for $5.17 read more

Great spot for boba! I visited Kung Fu Tea several times during my stay in Sterling Heights. The drinks were ready in less than 10 minutes of ordering, and so far all the ones I've had here tasted great! Kung Fu has a vast selection of drinks. I mainly order the Thai Tea but most recently, I tried the Longan Jujube Tea. It was flavorful! read more

Came here with my brother during their Peach special. I ordered the leading lady and peach showstopping milk tea. If you irder two of peachs drinks you could receive the little peach bag and the atraw cap but you have to ask for it. When we ordered they were trainig a new employee and our drinks came out quickly. The atmosphere is casual and a hang out spot for everyone. Theres two swing chairs, tables, and window seating. They do have some games to play as well. The leading lady was good and slushy/icy drink. read more

I've been going to this location ever since they opened. I take all my kids there all the time ordering the same thing every time. I took the kids up there on Sunday and the Asian girl with the mole on her lower neck refuse to sell me a side of popping boba. I explained to her that I've been buying/ordering the same thing ever since day one. She was very rude and let me walk out the door refusing my service buying the popping boba as a side for the kids. My thing is this regardless if it goes in a drink or not I'm purchasing the same amount that goes into the drink for a couple of dollars more. What's the difference?? It's a sale that you definitely wouldn't take a loss on making kids happy wanting them yo return. read more

First time ordering online. I was able to walk-in and pickup my order early. They wore masks and hand sanitizer was available on the counter. It was a great experience as the staff were friendly and patient in answering questions about the different menu items. I ordered a large original Kung Fu tea with Boba, 70% sugar, & light ice. Totaled about $6.36. It was refreshing on a hot sunny day! Thanks Kung Fu Tea! read more

Time for some kung fu passion fruit slushy, medium, added bubbles and mango popping bubbles. It's busy here. It's next to the Korean Chung Ki Wa. These places do well next to Asian restaurants it seems. Thirsty after a MSG heavy Sichuan meal at Trizest. They have these shaking machines do all of the work and shake up the drinks thoroughly. They have a deal today, if you buy two, get 1 for free, but download the app. It's pretty good and the bubbles are soft and chewy, just the way they should be. It's arctic cold and refreshing too. They have these fun and cozy hammock chairs, 3 of them. 2 chairs by the front door and lots of seating and tables. A long felt backed bench along the wall. I like the bright red wall, it's perfect color and goes well with the kung fu tea theme. read more

This is by far the best bubble tea I've had. As always, I test it out by ordering Taro and Thai tea. It tasted amazing; fresh and full of flavor. I really only like the tapioca boba so I got them both with that and the regular amount of sweetness. Man this was so good. I hate that it's not very close to me, but I'm signed up for the rewards so I'll have to make my way back here occasionally. If I had to pick a winner, I'm going with Taro all day. read more

This joint is instagram famous. Yea, I've seen their chain from the east to the west coast. Trust me, I have friends all over the world. Not just the states. So instead of doing cakes or pastries for desert. We chose these fashionable drinks. I went with the Taro Milk Green Tea + Kung Fu Technique = Awesome! This place isn't just straight up gimmicky. It's got the gusto to back it up too. My beverage was totally mind blasting!! I'd totally order it over and over and over again. Thank you so much for reading my review. I hope this helps with your decision making experience. Enjoy your awesome yelptastic day!! read more

KFT was the first big boba chain that opened up in the Metro Detroit. My friends and I went nuts with excitement when this place first opened several years ago. I'd say this KFT location is probably the best KFT I've tried, but it's still not great for boba, in my opinion. For quality boba, I'd definitely go somewhere else, but overall, the drinks here are solid for KFT. I come here for the location and interior. It's big and spacious, great place for meeting with friends. There's also games you can play and it's also opened later than other boba/dessert locations. Today, I got the sesame original milk tea with boba with 0% sugar. I'm not a huge sweet tooth, and KFT soaks their boba with honey. However, I found this drink much too sweet. The sesame probably has sugar in it, so RIP. This drink felt more like 50% at most generic boba places. Overall, I give this place a 4/5 because it's the best KFT I've gone to. Good memories made here and it's very convenient. read more

Best bubble tea in Detroit area beside Tao & Mai. The place is clean and comfortable. Many selection of flavor and they also serve macaroons. I only had the normal milk tea with aloe jelly. It's not just sugar and milk, you actually can taste the tea in it. Tao& Mai has stronger tea flavor but whatever, this is Detroit. It is not too sweet either. I also try the macaroons, I don't know if they are handmade or not, probably not. $2.50 a piece but they do have extra creme than regular. The green one I got starting to get dry already so it may not be as fresh as a bakery. So it's up to you. Key thing is their milk tea is good read more

LOVE Kung Fu Tea. If you're looking for variety in tea combination and jelly/boba combinations, this is your place. One of my coworkers comes by here almost every day and he's always raving about this place. So I knew i had to come try it out. I ordered the lychee jasmine green tea which comes with lychee jellies. It was absolutely delicious. The second trip I tried the mango jasmine green tea with mango jellies and it was even better! This place has been packed both times I've came and I can see why. It's hip, got a good vibe and the drinks are delish! read more

Overwhelming amount of choices for the bubble tea lover. Great space to meet some friends or to get some studying done. It can be a little loud though- bring some ear plugs if it bothers you. The tea is pretty good - its known to be on the sweet side so a friend told me to get it less sweet. But honestly I would have added a little more to my thai tea. The bubbles were fresh and soft. Would definitely come back again to try another flavor. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Thai tea and mango green tea. Both were tea strong because we got it 50%sweet - Bubble Tea Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

Wow, at last an authentic bubble tea place this side of Michigan! Hidden away in a small strip mall, easy to miss. However it's clear that word had gotten out as a steady flow of customers were coming and going to Kung Fu tea. They have a pretty large menu and plenty of topping choices, including red bean and green bean. Also love that they have seasonal specials. I tried the pumpkin oolong milk tea and it tasted better than I had hoped. The bubbles were sweetened with a fragrant type of honey syrup and nice and chewy. Speed wise they could use some improvement though, as it took over 10 minutes for my one tea, even though there didn't appear to be big orders before me. Price-wise, perhaps because I'm used to Cali prices, $4.25 for a medium bubble tea feels rather pricey. Worth it to splurge for a good tea though. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Mango slush - Bubble Tea Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

I've tried several of the bubble tea places around town and I'd have to say this is probably the best so far. The teas are just right, not bitter or too strong, and they are generous with the add-ins. The prices may be slightly higher but worth the consistency and quality of the drink. Unlike all the other nearby tea places, this place also has seating, kind of like a coffee house feel inside with a few comfy chairs along with regular chairs and tables. The cushioned bench seating against the wall however needs some serious steam cleaning as there are visible stains all over the seats. Other than this it's a place to hangout comfortably and even has a bunch of board games from which you can choose. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Milk strike with Wow milk- red bean with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Sterling Heights, Michigan

I wanted to take off my pants, but I didn't, because then it would've been Hung Fu Tea. What to get: Lemon Black Tea, Any other fruit tea with black tea, Hot Milk Teas. I didn't smell any cow poop while in here. Otherwise it'd be Dung Fu Tea. But my drink did fall in the toilet, so there's that. This is a delightful and brand new Kung Fu Tea location which was originally supposed to be the very first KFT in the state of Michigan. Due to various holdups a different KFT opened up in East Lansing, but this is the first in the entire Detroit metro area, and it has been packed out the door on all of its opening days. I was able to visit three times during my week in Detroit and I really like this location. I stopped pretending to be a turtle when ordering here. Otherwise it'd be Kowabunga Fu Tea. The plus side is that they make a good lemon black tea with good tapioca. They do not have a credit card minimum and it's a very comfortable place to hang out with a lot of friendly people working here. I didn't need major surgery while in here. If I had, it might've been Collapsed Lung Fu Tea. A few issues to iron out which is part of the learning curve such as running out of tapioca and not taking credit cards but I'm sure that will be solved very quickly. I don't perform music in the bathroom anymore. Otherwise it'd be "Sung Fu Tea." The only issue I would see being a reason why I would not give it 5 stars is that they are one of the many locations (about 50%) that will not give me black tea instead of green tea with the fruit drinks such as Orange, Very Berry, and Pineapple. I prefer black tea and I love the Very Berry or the Orange made with black tea. It's very easy for them to do but they're not supposed to do it due to head office regulations (pathetic decision by head office, they've gotten so many low-star ratings from me because of this). Roughly half of the KFT locations will gladly do it. The other half will not. This is one of the ones that told me very definitively that they will not. I hope they will change this policy. Because it's a policy that gets them less business. I was asking what kind of beans they had one time. The girl was like "what is this, Mung Fu Tea?" Also, the owner told me the scores of the World Cup games that I had DVR'd (lol) so then I didn't bother watching them. But he was a super friendly guy and had no idea he was messing it up for me. It's my fault for mentioning soccer when he asked how I stay in shape (flips hair). I asked them both "what is the past tense of I Bring Kung Fu Tea?" They incorrectly responded "Brung Fu Tea." I will still give 5 stars because I really like the products and the owner is awesome. And everybody working here was really friendly. But if they're still unwilling to adjust my drink next time I come in, it may end up having a lower star rating. They should read this and think about that policy. Half the KFTs in the country will do it for me, and they're not getting in trouble over it. Some rules are meant to be broken. I asked one of the many server girls that I love, here, on a date. But then I found out how old she is, or isn't, I should say. So we had to cancel. So it's "Young Fu Tea." And I keep seeing girls (and boys) (older than legal age) in miniskirts in this location. Now I know why they call it "Sprung Fu Tea." read more

YAS. I am a fan of Kung Fu Tea because they have various locations throughout the midwest & they're reliably tasty. The last time I had boba (or bubbles, whatever) milk tea was during my trip to Taiwan in May. I usually come back a boba snob because it's hard to complete with BMT from the source, the motherland. But, I opted for the Oolong Milk Tea with Mini Bubz. If mini boba is an option, always get the mini boba! It's a little less overwhelming from a chewy texture perspective than the normal sized boba. Also, it's less likely to be "stale." If you haven't had it before, it's kind of like the tapioca you find in tapioca pudding. Even though I got half sugar, it was still a little too sweet for my liking so 25% sugar next time. Regardless, Kung Fu Tea is a fantastic place to get your BMT fix! 189/365 read more

One of the best boba places in Michigan! Yes, I said "boba" and not "bubble tea." I'm from SoCal, that's how we roll. There are some pretty good boba places in SoCal, but Kung Fu Tea is the best. The boba here is always fresh, soft, and just a little bit chewy. The boba even has a bit of that green tea taste to it as well. Honestly the best boba I've ever had. I usually don't like too much boba in my drinks, but I want as much boba as I can get at this place. Best drink I've had in this place is the Wow Milk Oreo. The milk they use is Lactaid. I'm lactose intolerant, so this drink is perfect for me. I can just chug down this drink without having to worry about my stomach hurting. As far as customer service, they're friendly, and they crank out drinks really fast. I like the shaker they have in back, the machine moves really fast in a circular motion, ensuring the flavor is evenly distributed through the drinks. When pouring the drinks, they also put the liquid through a strainer so you get more liquid in your drink, and less foam. When I get drinks at Starbucks they always have too much foam in the drinks, so you're not getting much liquid in your drinks. Anyway, I strongly recommend this place, as their drinks are top notch! read more

We stopped by here tonight kind of spur of the moment, I saw they were open until 10pm and we were already out seeing a movie that got out around 9:30pm. Definitely download the app - I downloaded it a few weeks ago to check it out, and you get a $4 credit towards your first drink. I got a large Kung Fu milk tea with mango jelly (which ended up being similar to lychee jellies) and my boyfriend got a large Taro milk tea, with boba. They have a huge menu and it was hard to decide what to get; I originally wanted a Thai milk tea but they were out of it. You can add your credit card to the app and the $4 credit will apply to your first drink, mine ended up being about 80 cents after that which is an awesome deal. The place was super crowded at 9:30pm on a Saturday, but it looked like they had lots of board games and other games like Jenga. I'd like to go back during the afternoon when hopefully it's not as crowded and maybe stay and play games - this time we got our drinks to go. I'm excited to finally have a good bubble tea place in this neighborhood, though! Bubble Island in Ann Arbor is my all-time favorite, and the tea here was similar to theirs - and a lot closer to my house. I know Kung Fu Tea has locations all over the U.S. but I believe this is the first Michigan location, as well. read more

I've had Kung fu tea many times in New York and Ohio. Also once as the east Lansing location. So so so happy there is one right in metro Detroit now! I feel like staff still needs to improve a lot. They're super nice but the overall workshop needs to be better. They seem to still be in training. But they did just recently open. My friend got me bubble tea here very recently and they ran out of their own bubble tea straws so they used the basic bubble tea straws from the Asian mart. I was a little sad bc I got mini boba and didn't want to use the normal bubble tea straw. The drinks are all the same. They do service shaved ice it seems like. Since they have a poster of it. Will need to get that one day! I also feel like advertising needs to be better. Overall I will be a regular customer. I always stick with my trusty almond milk tea with 70% sugar hehe. read more

Kung Fu Tea is finally here. This is a huge "milestone" for Michigan's asian desserts to come around. I have been waiting for this. QUICK history... Kung Fu Tea was only seen in cities like Chicago, New York, or Toronto but FINALLY it is here! WHOO Service: The service is good but don't take it personally if they seem busy bc they have to make the drinks and serve to a huge line ! Food/price: I feel the demand for bubble tea is big so the price is the typical 5 dollars. For newbies it is worth and there are 'addictions' to these drinks but sometimes it can be a hit or miss :) Audience: FOR EVERYONE Recommend/tips? Go early or morning if you do not want a long line. It gets​ busy later in the night. PRO TIP...caution you can choke on a bubble! read more

So yummy that I'm already craving more!! This is by far the best and most authentic boba place that I have found so far in MI. I heard that it was good, but I didn't realize that it was amazing! I was craving boba after my workout. From the moment that I walked in, I could already tell that it would good based on the fact that I had to ask for an English menu. I'm guessing that the one they had out was in Chinese. The workers clearly knew what they were doing and all of the customers at the time didn't speak English so I knew that it would be good! I ordered the Kung Fu Milk Tea with bubbles. A really nice older man gave me my drink and I took one sip and fell in love (with the drink). I didn't adjust the sweetness and it was the perfect amount. Not too sweet. Also, you could watch them create it in front of you (unlike some other boba places that have it pre-made in a fridge and it tastes like condensed milk.. this place is actually nearby.. lol) I would definitely return. I wish I didn't like it so much because I'm craving it already and I will probably crave it daily, but I'm sure it has too much sugar (although it didn't taste like it). Super kind and helpful staff, amazing amazing bubble tea. I'd really like to try some of their other items. They have soo many and so many different flavors. I love it! I want more!!! read more

Thank goodness this opened!! I was beginning to lose hope in having great boba in Michigan! I've been to their location in Chicago and have always liked their drinks. Is it the best boba I've had in my life? No, a couple of places in the Bay Area will forever have my heart! But it is by far the best I've had in Michigan! My friend and I came here after dinner. There was a bit of a line but it went by pretty fast. I was so happy to be able to customize the sweetness and ice in my drink. I ordered an oolong milk tea with boba and my friend just ordered an oolong tea. When we got our drinks both of them were oolong without milk. I told one of the staff members and she immediately took it back and made me the correct drink. They were very very nice about it and super friendly!
