This is actually a Lollicup Fresh location. The only thing I get here is papaya milk because it's made with fresh papaya. I've had 2 of my friends try it and they loved it. I also got unsweetened green tea here and it was fine. Definitely recommend if you love papaya milk as well! I came back with a friend during quarantine 6/11/2020 to get brown sugar boba milk, papaya milk, and popcorn chicken. The owner is super friendly and talked about how they make their brown sugar boba drinks and popcorn chicken. I love that everything is fresh! I really hope they stay open. The brown sugar boba milk is really good with egg pudding. Will try bentos next time I come here. read more

Lollicup Fresh, a spin on Lollicup with more fruity flavors, serves some nice delish mill tea varieties. Currently only for take out orders, with one party inside at a time. I went with a peach milk tea which had a good balance of fruit, sweetness, and milk tea flavors (I got 50% sugar). There is a $5 min to use credit card. read more

I loveee the popcorn chicken especially when it's mild! Best boba place I would definitely recommend!

My go to local tea shop. I prefer drinks simple drinks with no frills. My favorite drinks are the green tea and the watermelon juice! Although the juice is advertised as seasonal, I seem to be able to order it year round which is a plus. I've tried most their food dishes and haven't been disappointed yet. For snacks, I'd recommend the green beans, tofu, and tea eggs. For the bowls/meals, I'd recommend the minced pork rice, Taiwanese sausage, and the pork belly rice. Love the fact that the bowls are well balanced and comes with an egg and veggies. I especially love the picked veggies and radishes. Also, they now accept cards. read more

They take credit card. The workers here are really nice. The other day we went, there was something wrong with the register so they were taking orders by hand. She kept apologizing. We ordered Taiwanese sausage bowl and a cutlet bowl. Both were delicious and steamy. The popcorn chicken was delicious. Drinks were pretty good. Not overly sweet. Just right. If you're looking for fresh boba or real fruit juice, this isn't the place. Lollicup is more of a fast food franchise for boba. read more

Good food lowkey, the food and service was good, overall it was a 10/10 experience, would go again, w snacks and food and drinks.

Horrible service today!! I've been coming here for a while and the lady with the short hair might be the owner was really rude to me and my family member. My family showed her the drink she wanted and denied her the drink and gave her something else. I went back in to the store and showered her this is not the drink I showed her what drink I wanted and she said my family member didn't show her anything so now she's lying. She grab the drink and and threw it in the trash with so much aggression. I called her out on it and she said she wasn't being rude and my family member was the one who ordered wrong. I believe if we were the same culture I wouldn't have been treated this way. Last time I come here. read more

Came to the area for some lunch and decided to get some boba in the area. Sis decided she wanted to come here since Lollicup is one of the first og boba places.m, & there's not many where we live. It was about 1:30 when we got there on a Tuesday & wasn't super busy. The shop was clean and abiding by covid standards. Masks, 6 feet apart, no sitting inside. First time getting boba here and I got the Peach Dragonfruit and sis got the White peach green milk tea. The boba itself was actually pretty good. Not too hard, but not squishy in an over cooked way. And had a nice brown sugar taste to it. The Peach dragonfruit was SUPER sweet. It really felt like I was drinking syrup. Beside the sweetness the taste of the dragonfruit was good, but the aftertaste was more peachy and that wasn't as enjoyable as the dragonfruit unfortunately. I was only able to get through a third of it before it becoming toooo sweet for me to drink. The white peach green milk tea was all around weird. I don't even really know how to describe it, but I wouldn't recommend it. Sis & I both tried to drink it but ended up throwing both drinks out and going to a different boba place. read more

#6 Popcorn Chicken ~ Very generous portions: Filled my to-go container: Half rice with some brown crumbs on top (house rice); silken tofu and green beans and boiled egg -- plate was heavy. To my surprise the popcorn chicken gets its own bucket ~ there were over 50 little nuggets there. That's a big meal yo! The chicken smells so good and hot (I got the top spicy) ~ it was amazing! I got sweet sauce on the side because they don't stick hot sauce. The fragrance of the chicken could odorize your clothing or car ~ so, I would store away fast. I paired it with grapefruit green tea, no sugar. The meal purchase put me in bonus round by discounting the tea by half (bonus is for regular size only). The taste for the tea was just ok but super refreshing. I made sure this meal only counted for 500 calories: -7 nuggets - entire egg - all the string beans - half the silken tofu - brown stuff topping rice - couple spoons of rice - green tea grapefruit- no sugar At this rate I could eat a whole week with the plate as served. Service was efficient and caring ~ nice professional staff. Parking in behind lot. 2-hour green striped parking at front. Eat in your car or take out. Amex accepted. Chop sticks and one plastic spoon included. Total about $12 read more

For years I have tried many boba milk tea places looking for a milk tea with very strong tea taste, but disappointedly, to no avail. I was so frustrated that I decided to brew my own. But that was too much work. Miraculously, I found Lollicup. They have a new product called White Peach Milk Tea. It has a very strong tea taste and smell really good, peachy. I'm now a fan unconditionally! I have found my gem. No further searches are needed. Another good thing about Lollicup as opposed to other boba milk tea places is that you can buy just the milk tea without boba. Other places included the cost of the boba in their milk tea and sell them as one. I have driven by this Lollicup for years, but didn't think much of it. So didn't bother trying them out. It was my loss. Go figure! Purchase a food dish (about $7.99) with the drink and get 50% off on the price of the regular size drink. I bought the Rice Noodle ($7.49) with the White Peach Milk Tea with mini boba, large size, 16 oz and got $2 off. The Rice Noodle was very tasty. I will definitely try their other dishes with my next boba milk tea purchase. Services are superb. I have come here about 6 times and each of these times, I ran into different friendly & accommodating cashiers. They even happily re-make my tea when I mistakenly thought they gave me the wrong flavor. I'm impressed with the customer services considered that this is just a fast food place. Besides the cashiers, I give credit to the manager of this place; it is a testament to his or her amazing management skills! Prices are comparable to Tapioca Express and cheaper than other boba milk tea places. This will be my go to boba milk tea hence on. Credit cards are accepted with minimum $5 purchases. I will be back! read more

Lollicup Fresh - White Peach Milk Tea with mini boba, large 16 oz ($5.09).  Rice Noodle ($7.49).  $2 off (50% discount). - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Alhambra, California

As one of the originators of this chain of Taiwanese bubble tea, Lollicup has a variety that many other have tried to imitate. They do enough volume to keep the tapioca fresh and often is a favorite for refreshing flavors. The only thing lacking is their tea quality, but fruit flavors and sweet fixes is what they do best. Open late, and with available parking makes this still a old school favorite. read more

Good drinks and food. Been coming here for years and have always liked the food and drinks from this place. Service is always friendly and prices are reasonable especially when you buy the combos. The only complaint I have about this location is the cash-only policy. You'd think I'd remember after all the visits but I literally had to collect every coin in my car yesterday just to come up with enough to pay for the meal. Not making that mistake again. read more

Amaxing service always , the best fried calamari!! Love their drink option & customer service. definitely recommend !! read more

You'd never assume this, but surprisingly this joint has the best popcorn chicken in all of Monterey Park / Alhambra. It's just the perfect blend of crispy and moist. I used to come here all the time and work on my laptop for hours on their free wifi, getting tea and refills whenever I felt the itch. Pre-pandemic, after hours this spot is full of middle/high school kids getting their afternoon snacks and Yu Gu Oh duels on. Very nice owners too. read more

I have been coming here for so long. Yes, Lollicup is a chain, but I love this specific boba location because they have such good popcorn chicken-- and they still give you deep-fried basil. Made to order, perfectly seasoned and lightly coated into a crispy, delicious, warm, juicy delight. Because there is a little wait for it and minimal seating, I like to call ahead to put my order in (at least the popcorn chicken, you can order the drinks in person if you are indecisive) and then roll up to pick up everything. The drinks are perfectly standard/fine Lollicup drinks, but the popcorn chicken is perfect. read more

This place was absolutely delicious and cheap compared to other businesses of its type. We got shaved ice, popcorn chicken and a white peach green milk tea with boba less iced, 30% sugar -- and it still tasted sweetish but the right amount! The popcorn chicken was on the saltier side but very fresh and chewy, they made it after I ordered so it was hot. The shaved ice allows five different toppings -- super generous for the price and was out in a good sized to-go bowl. It was slightly on the sweeter side so if you don't want it sweet tell them to make it less sugary!! Overall it was pretty awesome and tasty. I recommend going if you're wanting popcorn chicken or a snack!! read more

This used to be my favorite study spot during my undergrad years, & it still continues to be one of my favorite spots to grab a simple iced green tea. They have a variety of drinks which are very tasty, but their snacks & meal items are also very good. Our go-to are the popcorn chicken rice plate, string beans, & fried tofu. Though the prices have gone up over the years, the food still remains good & the portions are so large!! The service is always consistent, friendly, and welcoming. :) read more

Probably the best Lollicup you can ever stop at (unless someone can recommend me a better one). For studying -- Plenty of outlets across the tall tables! Wifi available. The only problem is the noise level: overplayed music from the radio station, students that hang out in groups, and sometimes the employees talking. Also take note of parking, it's 2 hours maximum in the lot so you might have to either park upstairs or along the small street. Drinks -- Matcha milk smoothie: has a slight banana flavor and a bit chalky. 5/10 Milk tea: not bad for price and size of cup. I'd get a topping with it. 7/10 Sea salt green tea: didn't pass for me, especially after having 85's ssgt so 3/10 Sea salt coffee: a little better than the green tea one. it's sea salt cream over black coffee. 4/10 Iced coffee: this is ok and I would get this if I'm not feeling the milk tea 6.5/10 Food -- String beans: the snack fried ones aren't as good as the cooked ones that come in the entrees (but they don't always serve in with the entrees. sometimes it's just assorted veggies in the entrees) Popcorn chicken: comes with a sweet chili sauce which is sweet and tangy. Chicken itself isn't as crisp or doesn't have that extra crispy layer outside but still ok. read more

The lychee jelly tasted like soap. Don't get lychee jelly. Also they were rude when confronted about the soap flavored lychee jelly.

Came by for a milk tea the other day and the experience left much to be desired. So it turns out that the most popular beverage is the Boba Milk Tea at $2.6. They also had a Royal Milk Tea for $1.25...after adding boba for a surcharge, the Royal Milk Tea w/ Boba was $1.6! ;) ...the milk tea was watered down...tasted more like tea flavored water...in a 12 oz size. Cash only. read more

Lollicup Fresh - Milk Tea w/ Tapioca - $1.6 - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Alhambra, California

I love the boba here it always taste better every time I come. The service here is also really good

This place is pretty spacious and welcoming. There's also plenty of parking in the garage and on the street. In the cafe, they advertise lots of deals beyond the menu, and there's free wifi here! Lots of options when you eat here! I got to use my LivingSocial voucher here (where I paid $5 for $10 to spend), so I got a passion fruit black tea with boba and my boyfriend got the barley milk tea with jelly. Both were good. The barley milk tea uses real barley, unlike other boba places that use powder, so here, you can taste the ground barley seeds. We also got the fried combo, which included fried fish cakes, squid balls, and salt and pepper chicken, for about $4.25. While the staff were friendly and the food/drinks came within 5 minutes, the girl assumed I wanted a large drink after my boyfriend ordered a large as well. It's just a 70 cent difference, but I wanted regular and they shouldn't have assumed that we both wanted the same sized drinks; I would've appreciated if she asked/confirmed the size with me. It was after we got the drinks that I noticed my boyfriend and my drinks were the same size. so much sugar, especially for my drink!! :O oh well. Overall, really great lollicup location. I'm definitely coming back again! read more

The best Popcorn Chicken Rice in LA. Most consistent quality. Very reasonable price. A must try

Wow, did not know they had beef noodle stew here so I decided to be adventurous and take a risk even though they are known for drinks. The beef was actually good, not tough, had little fat in some parts, and was plentiful. The soup was also good surprisingly tasted legit like Taiwanese broth. The noodles were not so special because it was spaghetti noodles and not Asian at all. Overall still satisfied to know they have decent food and in the one dollar sign category. read more

3 stars for the lackluster customer service. 4 stars for the cleanliness, and great boba! Parking is available on the street, not sure if they have a lot or not. The young girl working the cashier was nice to us in the beginning, she took our drink orders, but beware the woman with the short pixie cut hair wearing a hoodie to work. My cousin forgot to add boba to her drink, and when the boba was ready to pick up, she felt bad and asked the woman if she could add boba to it (of course we were going to pay for it)... She aggressively picked up the drink, and seemed sooo bothered to add boba and make a customer happy. She did this all in disgust, while repeating to us loudly that it was 30 cents, over and over again. In the end she added only 4 to 5 pieces and didn't even smile or say thank you or anything. You don't have to be so rude to your customers!! We won't be back!! Next time try to make your one time customers happy, instead of being bothered to fix an issue, so they'll return to your business. Also CASH ONLY! read more

Their $1 menu is awesome! Reg & taro milk tea, strawberry slush, tea eggs (2) and cuttlefish balls (4)...all for $1, what a deal! It's only available M-Th from 11am-4pm. Everything on the $1 menu was delish. Next time I'll get the cuttlefish balls with mild spice because the medium was way too SPICY! If you like to feel the burn then by all means get the medium. The drinks are a lil smaller but what do you expect for a buck. They also offer other specials throughout the day, posted on the windows and walls. 20% off Drinks w/ Yelp Check-in! read more

Open during COVID-19 This is the best boba shop for drinks and popcorn chicken! The chicken has actual meat, not cartilage or fat. I've been coming here since they open their shop (20 years ago). I would suggest calling in your food order or even your drink, so they have it ready when you get there during COVID-19. read more

Came here twice so far - mainly for birthday drinks: Free small 16oz drink (Must be a Fivestars Rewards member). Both times, I've been pleased with the service and drinks. Parking: 1 Hour Street parking in front or parking lot in the back (can be hella packed since they share it with other restaurants and stores). *****CASH ONLY JOINT***** Located near Tasty Garden Restaurant and Tapioca Express, I like this Lollicup Fresh location. It's bright and colorful, spacious, clean, plenty of seating, free WiFi and tons of outlets for your electronics' hearts content. Furthermore, the service here is always nice and friendly. I get my drinks ordered in, and within 5mins, it's ready. As long as your phone number is current and active, they won't have a problem honoring your Fivestars Rewards points. My favorite to go drink: Grapefruit Iced Green Tea. Refreshing and cool, makes for an awesome fat burning, antioxidants drink, hehe! I also like that it's not overly sweet, semi tangy, and the grapefruit pulps provide a tasty little nibble in between sips. Overall, this location makes an awesome Grapefruit Iced Green Tea, which is why I keep coming back here for it. At some point, I'll try out other drinks, but for now, long live Grapefruit Iced Green Tea!!!! read more

Taro smoothie with boba is one of the best available. I do like strawberry but have yet to try the strawberry smoothie from this place. I do remember ordering something else like mango smoothie or was it a slushie? I didn't like how the mango tasted but it is not Lollicup 's fault. I am just not used to the taste of the ripe mango here in the United States. I would normally request multiple add-ons like red beans, flan or custard (not sure if they have that), but opted out this time. Same is true every time I want a strawberry smoothie but from places. When it comes to popcorn chicken, as I remember it way back then, pretty much the same taste as other similar places that offers popcorn chicken. The place is clean. It's one of those "modern" cafe that plays modern music in the background. The staff is friendly. The parking is street curbside as well as inside the parking structure of the plaza. I have not used the restroom on this place so no review on that. Taro and Strawberry smoothies for the win! read more

They have a huge selection of drinks available like most boba stores. Most people come here for the boba, but I come for my honey green tea with aloe. I like coming to this place because it is a nice little place to relax. A lot of people come here to study/ hangout, but the parking at this plaza is somewhat difficult to find. I hate parking at the upper lot because the spaces are super small. They have free Wi-Fi at this location, but I had a hard time connecting. So I basically just come here to curl up with my book and sip on my drink. read more

Been on this location for 3x already & really love their food and drinks. We usually park inside the plaza & its a little bit full especially at night. The staff are friendly & will provide you extra things (utensils & plates) without any complain. We ordered Popcorn chicken rice (has a big portion of serving which I like) & the any drinks are 50% off ordered with a meal. Their taro drinks with boba & pudding are good, even the other drinks (brown sugar milk with boba & pudding) are good as well. We are thinking of trying their other drinks & food on the menu next time. Their restaurant is spacious but sometimes crowded at night. Their restroom is clean as well. Still planning to come back to this location again next time read more

Oldie but goodie. Important stuff: - Free parking lot behind and spots also available in front of the store building as well - Drinks are made with fresh ingredients and fruits! - Free wifi - Great friendly service + the owner woman is super nice :) - CASH ONLY Lollicup used to be my go-to boba joint back in highschool and my early college days. My bestie and I would always come to Lollicup for their boba milk teas and popcorn chicken... #basic. lols However, as more and more of these hip, new and trendy boba stores starting popping up, we kind of stopped coming here for awhile. BUT, recently I finally had a chance to stop by and I'm so happy that I did :) A couple years back, Lollicup did this whole rebranding, hence their new name, Lollicup Fresh. And I am loving the new get up. Basically they have all of their classics but a whole bunch of new and fresh choices as well. Everything is really great here whether you're looking for some yummy fried snacks to munch on or some refreshing drinks to sip on. My personal faves: - Honey grapefruit green tea - The regular grapefruit green tea - Strawberry Lychee black tea with lychee jelly and real strawberries and lychee. I also swap out the black tea for green tea and the popping boba with regular mini boba. - Classic boba milk tea (with mini boba) - Mango green tea with real mango bits - French fries :) Enjoy! read more

My go to boba place, with a majority of places charging $6-7 for one large drink, Lollicup is much more affordable. They offer a lot of variety with their toppings for the drinks, and have a great assortment of hot foods. Their popcorn chicken is amazing! And you can choose how spicy you'd like it to be. The pork chop rice is great and also super affordable. read more

I came here to use the deal I got with LivingSocial. Since I go to Diamond Jamboree's Lollicup in Irvine so much more often than this one, I automatically compare the two. The place was packed around 10 PM on a Friday night, and there were a bunch of people crowding around the register/front door. The menu was pretty basic, but they didn't have the drinks that I usually order at Irvine. (But after reading some reviews from Yelp, I saw that they had the Royal Milk Tea Slush? Maybe I didn't see it, but I usually get that in a snow at Irvine.) Anyway, I ordered a regular boba milk tea, almond milk tea with boba and pudding (had to pay an extra dollar for both items) and a strawberry yogurt snow with boba ... and popcorn chicken. The boba milk tea was decent. Not too bad, and the boba was chewy enough. I liked the almond milk tea as well. It had a strong almond flavor. I felt that the pudding and the boba given were very little especially since I paid full price for both of the add-ins. The strawberry yogurt snow was okay. It was too sweet and reminded me of those strawberry cookies found in the Asian supermarkets. The popcorn chicken was all right. If I didn't have the LivingSocial deal, I probably would have considered the drinks to be too expensive for my liking, especially for the quality of the drinks. read more

The food tastes nice but the old lady with short hair was really rude to us. And now I have go see my psychological counselor again because of her bad attitudes with a horrible eyes contact.
