I love coming to Latea. I come here often, so I decided to get their rewards card and within two weeks, I am already 2 drinks away from the reward (I'm in uni so I have to space out my purchases). I love how you can adjust the sweetness level and the ice level. I normally get 25% sweetness and that is just enough sweetness to sweeten the drink, but not so much sweetness that the flavor of the tea is unrecognizable. I really like the boba so I normally get triple boba in a medium size drink (I'm a glutton and proud of it). I normally get either the lavander milk tea (they make the lavender tea in store) or the rose milk tea (they get the rose tea shipped in). I love the atmosphere, it's really calming and there's really good music playing 80% of the time, and the staff is really pleasant and helpful. If you're a student and need to print stuff, they have a printer, however I'm have a printer in my apartment, so I'm not sure if you have to pay for prints becuase I've never used it. Good job Lafayette for building an amazing establishment! read more

Definitely the best milk tea in town, but I have to say the tea tasted much better when it was coming out of a delivery-only service. Now, there's really only sugar and milk in the milk tea. The ratios are off and quality is no longer part of their service. Customer service is a hit or miss at this place. Some cashiers will greet you with a smile, others will just glance at you and walk over when they think you're going to order. It's okay and I'm still disappointed every time I go in thinking it'll be different. read more

Exemplary service. The vibe was magical and the people were not lacking in class. They have mastered the art of customer service. They are knowledgeable and friendly. My kids and I love this place read more

I love bubble tea!! So while I was in the West Lala area my sister found this place and im so glad she did! I got a small house green tea milk and it was so yummy. I don't like having bubbles, so I don't have an opinion on them here but my sister had a mango green tea with rainbow bubbles and it was pretty good! The menu was super easy to follow and the atmosphere is very cute and student centered. They even have a printer for students to print off homework! My only compliment is that I should've gotten more ice in my tea cause my drink was a lil warm and the ice melted quickly. I should've taken the cashiers advice and gotten extra ice but i haven't need to get extra ice in a drink before. Regardless, this place is great and next time I'll try some of their sweet treats they have available! read more

A good place to chill for a while with friends. Many deals available like movie tickets and membership. Sweeter than normal tea.

Love Latea Bubble Tea! Always kind and courteous employees and a variety of delicious drinks!

Best bubble tea in town. Awesome decorations and quick service. Even during covid this place is super popular. The yelp rating is spot on, terrific place to go! read more

Pros: Great atmosphere and style Delicious tea Friendly employees Cons On the pricier side (don't expect to find anything less than 2.50) A little busy at times read more

LaTea is pretty expensive for tea, but it is amazing with or without bubbles! I love that it's organic, and it is simply the best tea I have ever had and I have had tea all over Indiana, Canada and Hawaii! read more

Hands down the best bubble tea in town, state etc etc! I don't know how they do it but their tea and boba, especially, are amazing. I feel like I am now picky about my boba after Latea because there is no place that serves boba as good as theirs. Seriously. My experience here has always been a pleasant one. My only wish is that it would've been nice if they were located nearer campus with better parking... but I still come here anyway! read more

I have been here many times during my undergraduate years. My favorites are the grapefruit and kumquat teas. I like that they actually put bits of fruit into the teas to give flavor rather than just dousing the tea with syrup. The prices are sky high, especially if you upgrade from a small and add toppings. It's almost necessary to upgrade the size because the small size is very small. After the upgrade and boba, you're looking at close to $6 for a cup. Also, the location is not good because it is very far away from campus so you can't really pick one up when walking from one class to another. This will be a problem as more competitors pop up in better locations such as Kung Fu Tea. But overall, the quality of the tea is good. read more

I love thirsty kumquat lemonade and sweet potato fries and the cashier that I saw was funny and I like thier cheesecake

Best boba in Greater Lafayette area. The boba has a good texture and tastes like honey in the center. The tea is fresh and full-bodied too. The fries are really amazing and the staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. Go on Tuesdays for BOGO small milk tea! read more

Great bubble tea, and great place. Frequently visit and order from here as the location and store is convenient. The bubble tea itself is always great and they have a variety of option available too. read more

I usually love this place. However my house green milk tea turned out to be extremely bitter this time. Not sure why. Probably the tea is bad. read more

One of the best bubble tea places at Purdue University. Love the diversity of food offered, and how boba is homemade

So many flavors and small handmade snacks. I think it is a really good bubble tea store to go around West Lafayette area.

Yummy!!! Drinks are made with creamer. If you aren't a whole milk person, request skim instead

Just get the house milk tea with boba in the largest size. It was quite good. My personal recommendation: house milk tea, 50% sugar, less ice, with boba. Not bad at all. Being from California, this definitely satisfied my cravings while visiting Purdue. read more

I've become a big fan of bubble tea (especially taro with bubbles) and this place makes a great one. I plan to come back enough to make my way through the full menu. read more

Service is very fast, always very helpful. Not only is the service excellent but the fresh brew teas are amazing! Very pleasant atmosphere and delicious fries! read more

Great tea but major waiting time. Order milk tea with 1/2 sugar and no ice. It take freaking 15 to 20 min. Can't see anybody going here if short on time. read more

I visit Latea almost everyday if I get a chance. Highly recommend ginger brown sugar milk drink with boba. It's not on the menu but you can customize it. My only disappointment with this place is the coffee milk tea. The coffee is too strong and it takes over the taste of milk and tea parts. It just doesn't mix well with the milk tea. read more

No problems with ordering since then! Thanks for the reply and great service, and for the availability of delicious bubble tea in this town!

Decent milk tea, but unbearable waiting time. It took me 40 mins to get milk tea before the movie time.

Very solid bobba place for a small town. It gets super crowded, probably because it's the only legit bobba tea shop around here. The cashier that helped me out was extremely patient. I was here with 4 more people, and as I had to relay indecisive orders from them to the cashier, I got frustrated but the cashier patiently made each change and made sure we each had what we wanted. The place was really small as we had to fight for some seats, but then again, I don't blame them for their popularity. Will probably return! read more

Five stars! You do need to try their bubble tea and fried cheesecake (with or without bananas) if you have the chance! You can actually taste the bitterness of tea they used to make the milk tea and it doesn't taste like anything made from random flavor powder. The staff are always friendly and very efficient too. They have stamp and loyalty cards with which you can get discount. I visit this place a few times a week almost every week. read more

Friendly service and awesome fried cheesecake. Ambiance is cool and our cashier was very friendly, even though we took forever to decide! I'll definitely be back if I get the chance. read more

Drove 2 hour to Purdue just for this. Best bubble tea I have ever had in midwest. Great service too! read more

Latea Bubble Tea - Nomnomnom - Bubble Tea Near Me - West Lafayette, Indiana

It's one of those great places with good atmosphere that I will come back every week. The milk tea with bubble and their plum tea are so good that reminds me of home. The desserts there are also worth trying; really goes well with tea. The owner is very friendly and you can tell that he really puts in a lot of effort in the shop to make it great! read more

Amazing tea latte bubble teas.. Sigh- wish they could make this in chicagoland. Argo tea just doesn't cut it. This place hit the spot :)

I'm from out of town, but visiting for the week. I really enjoy bubble tea, and definitely wasn't disappointed. Friendly service, competitive prices, and yummy teas are just a few of the reasons for the five stars. read more

Latea is a good place to hang out with friends. I go to latea almost every day. I highly recommend the rose green tea with rainbow jelly and salted cream float. I like how they started to decorate the store with flowers. It makes the store even more refreshing. They have excellent service. They are able to customize the drinks for you as much as you'd like it to be. read more

Everything tastes so good here and I love the little baked goods. A good place to get work done also, it's cozy!

Favorite Boba tea place has alternative milk options like soy and almond and nice ambience

Why did it take so long for a bubble tea lounge to open up near Purdue? The only thing I'm sad about is that I'm not the one who opened this place! I could have made a fortune by now since this place is so popular! :) That aside, Latea is great, with a huge menu with tons of options, including bubble teas, fruit jelly teas, plain, and so forth. It's sort of dizzying, but I stick to the basic--milk bubble tea. You can even ask them to adjust the sweetness level of your drink, a big hurray for me, since I prefer less sweetness to my drinks. One downside is that I think it's kind of expensive--just to get a small sized bubble tea with real milk (instead of the powdered stuff), it can cost more than $4. Perhaps I'm out of the loop in terms of bubble tea pricing these days (I moved to the midwest many years ago, from that bubble tea mecca, SoCal), but it feels kinda pricey. But overall, head over to Latea to get a bubble tea fix that you cannot get anywhere else in this part of Indy. As a side note, parking can be tricky to find (there's more in the back, but it's waaay back there). read more

I had the honey lemon with lychee jelly and the green tea passion fruit OJ with lychee jelly. Both were very delicious and sweet. The drinks are very customizable (sweetness levels, bubble/jelly options) so there are tons of options. The workers were very nice and open to answering questions. The bubble teas were quickly made, but not very cold. The interior is beautiful though, if it wasn't so far away from campus, I could see myself hanging out there quite often. I hope they are here to stay! read more

This is an amazing business. Fresh organic teas from around the world. All loose leaf and made into a variety of drinks including bubble tea and an amazing salted cream tea. The French fries are unique and delicious and their desserts are great!! read more

Great bubble tea. Definitely on par with what you could get in the best shops in the various Chinatowns of the world. That being said, the price is somewhat high for drinks for Indiana. The prices are actually a bit higher than the typical, loaded Starbucks drinks. read more

I wanted to substitute green tea for my taro but they said they couldn't. Can't buy single macaroons which is unfortunate. Taro doesn't even taste like taro. It should be purple not brown. Stick with king fu tea read more
