    This place is da bomb!! I have always been a great fan of boba teas. I find them so addictive! But the amount of sugar and additives have always put me off. How I wished for somebody to make quality boba teas. I never found an exclusive place to buy boba teas wherever I lived before. I always would buy them from Asian restaurants or food places. When I got a notification from Yelp about an event at Leafly, I immediately signed up. The reviews here hyped up my expectations. I was still skeptical until I tried their Jasmine green tea. It was so delicious with cream cheese topping. Their Mandarin boba tea was so refreshing with mandarin puree and lychee jelly. Black sugar boba and matcha teas are also a must try. They have a few caffeine free options too. I feel that Gen z kids are getting a lot of things right. Breaking norms and always finding ways to improve. May be it is the sugar that's talking!

    You have got to try the matcha! I had only had matcha one time before (at home) and I apparently did not make it right. Because i said i would never have it. But this matcha was delicious! I had the Uji matcha which appeared to be a favorite. I have also had the Black sugar boba milk tea and the mandarin tea with Lyche jelly. All of the drinks are amazing. You can order online, at the tablets or at the counter. You can choose how sweet you want your drink, which I love. I'm a sugar free girly, so that is a nice option. It's a great place to hang out with your friends. The music playing over the speakers was soothing and the staff is super nice. It isn't a big place, which makes it cozy. I will be bringing my girls back here to hang out for a bit.

    Never really tried tea/boba. Super excited HSV has this right off of University. Loved the unique flavors and super friendly/helpful staff. The inside is very clean and they have an extensive menu. The boba wasn't mushy and had a nice bite. The drinks came out quickly, and there was a lot of seating inside or a quick drink to-go. Menu ranges from sparkling limeades to mochi waffle pops for a quick snack!! Can't wait to come back and try more.

    The service was fast and the ladies behind the counter were so sweet. I ordered the mandarin green tea & it was refreshing!

    Wanted to try some boba in Huntsville as I've never been and this place is great! The cashier was super nice and definitely will go back if I'm back in Huntsville.

    I stopped in here today because I was close by and have been wanting to try it. They don't exactly have a build-your-own type bubble tea bar, but they do try and work with you if you want something. For example, my go to is always oolong milk tea. They didn't have it. But they had an oolong salt cap version (I don't like the salt cap) so they just let me get the oolong tea with tapioca. I added almond milk to it when I got home. They were very pleasant and nice. I hope they can get a good following. The place is very clean. They did have some great looking seasonal drinks that I'd be open to try. I'd definitely come back, but I wish you could do more of a customization with the drinks.

    Really big fan of this new spot for boba. Tucked in near the old Atlanta Bread location, it's definitely worth seeking out! Leafly offers a variety of drinks: simple, refreshing teas, milk teas, fruit teas, and their crema series, which is a tea drink (often milk tea, but not always) with a cap of salted crema on top. Lately, they've also had a build your own ramen bar going on -- packages of fancier ramen than your standard Maruchan with toppings available to add. They also usually have a selection of snacks like Pocky. So far, I've tried the coffee milk tea, cookie butter milk tea, and their earl grey milk tea with salted crema brûlée. I've enjoyed all of them very much! I will say if you're used to reaaaaally sweet boba tea you may not find it here, BUT the staff is kind and helpful and would almost certainly gas the sweetness for you, AND since the drinks are not as sweet, you have more room to enjoy the lovely and clearly freshly brewed tea taste! You can taste that difference in all their drinks and I really love it. The boba is fresh, chewy, and slightly sweet. I think they put just the right amount in each drink, too. The interior has a fun, bright, modern vibe and it is CLEAN in there! Not once have I visited and seen a singular smudge or stain on any table or countertop or floor. Additionally, the staff is charming, polite, helpful, and friendly. They remembered my name after only two visits and are more than happy to make recommendations. They rule! I'm excited to continue trying their new specialty creations. I'll also be back for more of my favorites. Try this place out if you like boba at all! It's well worth it.

    I believe this to be a ?"healthy boba alternative. They didn't offer my fav "poppers" and my fruit drink wasn't syrupy I guess it's great if you want healthy, ?no additives, but I don't have to return I like my sugary slurpy boba w poppers

    Bottom Line Up Front: GET IT!!! VERY LIGHT AND REFRESHING! First let me mention that I'd be proud to call myself a Boba Tea Jr. Connoisseur lol. I absolutely love this place! It definitely gives LA Cali vibes which I'm all for and the staff are super sweet(not to mention everyone on the staff is gorgeous and there's definitely eye candy there, just saying)... The tea is definitely delicious! So if you're in the area, you know there are a few other places that offer boba. What makes this place special, in my opinion, is that their tea flavors aren't doused in a ton of syrup. They taste refreshing and the boba is always fresh. Everyone doesn't always want extremely sweet boba tea, although I know a lot of places offer the option to change the sweetness, this place just seems to get it just right! I will be back of course and will continue to try out different drinks.

    Oh. My. God. I came back for another try at this place, and ended up getting the Earl Grey Crème Brûlée Milk Tea with Boba. I don't think I can ever get something different. I went a third time after and I got the same exact thing. It would be great if they offered a no ice option; I don't mind paying a little extra. It's so good, and I've recommended this place to a couple of friends because of that experience. I've found that I'm more fond of an actual tea base rather than a fruit tea base so I do have to say that there are a few seasonal drinks I'd be willing to try.

    We went out of our way to make sure we came to Leafly when we came in town on Black Friday; like on the way to the family dinner, if you don't stop here, mama's going to be mad energy. I'm not going to bury the lede--this stuff is fantastic! They put in their work to make by far the best milk tea I've had in years. It was not the slightly watery, somewhat indistinct-tasting milk tea of others. This was next-level creamy goodness. And of course, we had to add the boba! For an everyday flavor, try the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea for a little extra rich sweetness. They also had a new seasonal flavor of Mint Chocolate Milk Tea which was a nice holiday flavor. Not only was it pretty in the cup, but it was smooth and tasty, too. It's a cute little shop with parking right out front. It's in a shopping area, so it would be a great place to stop in while running errands or a retail therapy break. They had already decorated for Christmas, so there were lots of cute decorations around. (I loved the Santa hat chair covers.) Wish we were local, but we'll make the stop every time we can!

    Paul M.

    Gave this great new place a try. It was all decorated for Christmas so it bright and cheery. Staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions and they even let us taste test a new flavor when we weren't sure what to get. The signature Leafly Milk Tea was a solid choice that will be available year round. Quick and easy checkout, too.

    Mark P.

    Every time I visit Huntsville, Leafly is a must! This is the best quality boba bar in the area. The quality is top tier down to the cups! Huge shout out to Minh for the awesome service! The ambiance itself is also great and welcoming. They have tons of board games you can play with a group of friends and also comfortable booths for date nights. Support this place, you wont regret it!

They have lots of options and the boba tea is just the way we like it not overly sweet like we have ran into at other places.

The family and…read morestaff are so so nice and I'm incredibly happy to see them enjoying this level of deserved success in their new brick and mortar! I've been missing their yummy products for a while; before they went brick and mortar, I was only ever able to catch them on Thursdays off University Drive, and they stopped doing that a few months prior to launching their full store. The full store is way out in Madison, which is pretty far out of the way for me, so it's been a long time since I last had any of their drinks. Luckily, I was passing through Madison about a week or two ago and had the time to stop in to see their new spot. It's really not far at all from where they'd park the trailer during their days in Madison; find it in the same shopping center as 2nd and Charles. Ample parking is available. Inside, you'll find a very adorably decorated, cozy, instagrammable boba shop. They have a loooot of drink choices (milk teas, fruit teas, coffees, etc), lots of types of boba, and their newest addition: soft serve ice cream! The ice cream comes in a lot of flavors that are pretty unique to this area: taro, Thai tea, mango, green tea, etc. Exact flavors vary from day to day but they have a small freezer with cups full you can also order. They also have a selection of fun snacks like Calbee chips, spicy rice crackers, and Pocky. I feel lucky we have two fabulous dedicated boba spots in the Huntsville area. ShakeiT Boba is my preferred spot if you want a more dessert or coffee-centric boba drink. Their Thai milk tea and their S'mores milk tea are delightful treats, although my most common order is a brown sugar or Thai coffee with coffee jelly. So so good and a great caffeine/happiness/energy boost! Their cups are gorgeous and the decorations and merch are so fun. I've noticed lots of familiar staff faces over the years too. I think it's a good sign that they can retain employees. And of course the family who owns the place is also often working hard behind the counter. :) Give this lovely business a try when you get the chance!

This Filipino-inspired coffee shop offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere, excellent service, and drinks that stand apart from the typical chain coffee experience. Our family sampled three beverages: the Salted Caramel Kape, a Kape Kape with added caramel, and an Ube Kape. Every drink was smooth, flavorful, and expertly prepared. For food, my wife and I ordered the pork siopao while Bethany chose the chicken siopao. Both arrived piping hot, with soft, pillowy buns and savory fillings that paired perfectly with the coffee. The service was friendly, the ambiance inviting, and every item we ordered exceeded expectations. It's refreshing to find a local café that executes both beverages and light bites so well. Best of all, this was one of the places Bethany most wanted to experience during our trip to Huntsville, and it did not disappoint. Kape Tayo delivered memorable coffee, delicious siopao, and an experience that left all three of us wanting to come back.

I paid $8.51 (before tip) for a large Buko Pandan, and for the price point expected a lot more to drink. Most of the coconut jellies and tapioca pearls fell to the bottom of the drink underneath the ice. In addition, I'm not sure if there's just a lot of Pandan dye that was used but the interior of my mouth was pretty green after finishing the drink. If there's a way to get less ice, I'd prefer that.

And I highly recommend them always), a chardonnary, lemongrass chicken, and chicken fried rice to go for the Hubs. First off, they now serve Sutter home wine in airplane plastic bottles. YUCK. Even their wine previously, which was poured from a bottle, was nargial but it was better than this, which was awful! Again the rolls were delish, as always! Thanks for that! The peanut dipping sauce was delicious also! So there's that. On to the main, the lemongrass chicken. It should have been called sauteed bell pepper and onions with white rice. The chicken was finely chopped for the most part and I left hungry. All this was 40.00 with a tip and again it was not the standard Viet Huong used to have with hearty meals that constantly made a nice leftover lunch for me. They have gotten stingy on their protein at least in the lemongrass. I noticed it last time I came here and chocked it up to being an off night. Well it's apparantly the new norn. This is one of mybdwarrst friend/Sorority Sister's favorite places to eat as she typically gets their Pho. I'll go back if I get to enjoy her company, I just don't plan to visit solo again. It's too expensive to get awful "wine" and skimpy proteins. The last next to me was another soko diner and complained about her (I think) vegan or vegetarian meal she called in advance about and then showed up and it wasn't available per her request. There was no manager working the floor and I didn't complain, and likely that's why I didn't see a manager. I do hope your experience at this long-standing locallwd owned and opened by a high school classmate is much better than my last two visits were.
