Yum! My new favorite boba place in the area. Not too expensive. Drinks are good! Easily customizable with sugar and ice but it comes good as it is already. I always get the same thing; lychee black tea with rainbow jelly. Both times that I've been the employees has been very polite and nice. This is definitely my new favorite spot for boba! Tasty AF. read more

Palgong Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

I was looking around on the Snackpass app and saw that Palgong had a promotion for new customers. I couldn't resist. Large oolong milk tea with boba (regular ice, half sweet) - I saw another recommendation to get the normal ice level since if you get light ice the drink can still be a bit warm with all the ice melted. I'm glad I did, since the regular ice here is like the light ice at other shops. The oolong tea is delicious and high quality, and the fragrant qualities balance with the creamer. The boba is a touch on the harder side, but nothing too egregious. There's a good ratio of boba to drink. I would come here again and try out their other drinks and food offerings (their bingsoo looks so good for a hot summer day!) Also note that their prices are lower in store compared to on Snackpass (a large drink in store was roughly the same as a medium drink in the app). With the promotion, it was still a discount and it was a good way to put the shop on my radar. I'll be ordering in store going forward since there's no real need to order in the app as there's minimal wait due to their efficiency. read more

As an Asian who loves Bubble tea, it's hard to find good authentic Bubble tea places in Ann Arbor. Palgong Tea is a must go place if you are looking for authentic Bubble tea. My goto is usually matcha Bubble tea with red bean. Today, I'm trying taro with red bean and chocolate. When I came today, 50% of their customers were Asian. Keep up the good Bubble tea & good service! read more

Note: increasing to 4.5 stars- the business has tried to make it right after hearing my concern about my last drink (it was possibly made with the wrong type of tea) :) I have found they can sometimes be inconsistent and their drink quality can be uneven, depending on who is making the boba tea. It also seems to me like there's more ice scooped into each drink now (like each size cup is 3/4 full of ice) but I am not sure if it truly increased. I will update more as I go there over time. I'm sure some of it is growing pains with new staff. read more

Palgong Tea - Matcha milk tea with red bean (I added red bean, and it comes with boba), large size - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

I am always interested in checking out bubble tea shops in other cities because where I now reside, they are ubiquitous, and the bar is high when it comes to drink quality. This location at the Woodland Plaza south of the city is far from the university campus so you won't have much student foot traffic, only those with access to vehicles or public transportation. The inside of the suite was bright and clean. The only thing missing would be sofa seating and the availability of board games to make the environment even more hang out friendly. What makes Palgong Tea stand out from the local competition was the availability of bingsoo (shaved ice) and Korean style corn dogs. The latter is usually sold at food court vendor stands in my hometown and is not part of a boba tea shop menu. The variety of drinks was pretty standard with milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, coffee (iced/hot), and original teas (iced/hot). For my preferred category of fruit teas, the prices were dare I say, inexpensive at $4.25 for a regular and $4.85 for a large. Toppings cost a reasonable $0.55 for each one. My choice was a large Green Grape Green Tea which is not a common flavor that I have seen. Less sugar, less ice, and tapioca pearls were my standard modifications. The end product was okay as a regular sweetness level would have been the way to go. The pearls could have also been boiled longer to soften their consistency. The service was fine although at the time of my visit, only one other party was present so I expected no less because the staff was not busy. read more

I've been to Palgong Tea five or six times at this point and have found them to be among the most consistent boba shops in the Ann Arbor area. Combined with the fact that they are also one of the cheapest places to get boba, it's been part of my regular rotation whenever I'm in A2. On my most recent visit, I went right when they opened and ordered my standard drink: Black Milk Tea, Large ($5.46) - This drink comes with boba. I have no idea how they keep drink costs so low; most other places are at least a dollar or two more. The milk tea is pretty good quality too, with a black tea taste that isn't overpowered by sweeteners, and a creaminess added by the milk powder. The black tea is pretty strong here - I was really feeling the caffeine an hour or two afterwards. The drink comes default at 50% sweetness which I find to be pretty much on the dot. For the ice - this is the only place among the hundreds of boba shops I've visited where I recommend sticking to normal ice levels. If you get less ice, it all completely melts within a couple of minutes and the drink ends up being a little on the warmer side. The only negative is that the boba is consistently just a tad too firm. It gets firmer the longer you let it sit and within 20 minutes or so, the boba starts being unpleasantly hard. The drinks at Palgong Tea are pretty solid for the area and this shop is the only one in Ann Arbor I go to with any sort of regularity. I recommend it over most of the other places nearby. read more

My friend and I stopped by this past Tuesday afternoon after a workout, so a refreshing tea was the perfect treat. I heard the tapioca here isn't great, so I opted with what a friend had recommended. UME PLUM TEA I asked for no sugar since the tea is already sweetened with honey and it was still on the sweeter end. The plum flavor was noticeable but I also am not too familiar with what an ume plum is, so I can't tell you if it's the real thing or not. Overall, enjoyable, but I'd try something else. Good amount of space indoors, which allowed my friend and I to enjoy our drinks and catch up. The interior is clean and spacious and it's very bright. read more

Place: This is a new bubble place and it is in a plaza. The ambience is very bright and white. There is seating areas/tables that is perfect to catch up with someone or study. Service: The service was good and they recommended the bingsoo (yes omg they have that option) and K-dogs. Food $: The food and drinks were 10/10. So good and worth trying. I got the mango bingsoo and I was skeptical about if it would mainly taste like ice but after trying it was so sweet and had the perfect milky ice to syrup ratio (yes, I am getting it again). Audience: Solo Trip [X] 21+ [ ] Family Friendly [X] Friends [X] Date Spot [X] Recommendations/tips: I would recommend this place and it is in my saved places to go again! read more

Palgong Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

This is the newest bubble tea place in town and they are still working out some bugs. The first time that I went there the two women who were working seemed a bit overwhelmed even though it wasn't that busy. The second time that I went I used there online ordering and they never saw the order so it wasn't ready when I got there. I did get my drink quickly though once they realized the mistake. Their menu is a bit confusing and it isn't clear if you can customize your drink when you look at the menu board. And in the online ordering, I could see customization choices that didn't apply to my drink (e.g., choice of milk was given but my drink was made with a non-dairy milk powder). Their drinks are also very sweet even though I requested a "less sweet " drink. The decor is pleasant and they have a few tables though fewer than the old Espresso Royale. I hope they get the bugs worked out because a coffee/tea place has been needed in this area since the closing of Espresso Royale. read more

Stopped in with my wife and son, nice atmosphere. I got the combo for a corn dog and ade drink for $9.50, I choose the green grape ade and tasted like a green grape soda absolutely loved can't wait to try this in other flavors. My wife enjoyed her green tea, however, there are many other tea places in AA that serve this, I would stick to their Korean offerings as this is what differentiates this tea place from others. The strawberry Bingsoo is a popular Korean dessert consisting of shaved ice milk with a fruit of your choice in our case we choose strawberry, which came topped with fruity pebbles, very refreshing the fruit dominates the flavor definitely not as rich as ice cream, my kid really enjoyed this along with the chocolate croffle which he loved. Definitely looking forward to trying other flavors. read more

Got their mango bingsu which was good but could've used more mango flavoring on top and less on the bottom. It came with fruity pebbles on top which I initially found odd but came to enjoy them. Nice quiet cafe with wifi for a Saturday evening to do some work. read more

I returned to try 2 more options: the Korean corn dog and the matcha tea with boba. Both were excellent. The corn dog was new to me . I ordered it with half sausage and half cheese with spicy Mayo. This is a Unique experience and very rich and indulgent. Perfect upscale fast food, with a modern. Cool ambiance and great service. It is deep fried, full of perfectly melted cheese, yet crunchy on the outside and drizzled with condiments of your choice. Try it! read more

The people were nice, but the tea tasted nasty, like a mix of diesel fumes and dog $#!+. Sorry but it's true. I have no idea why - maybe some tea pot or machine needs cleaning? They were less nice when I came back to ask about a refund but they did do it. Too bad. read more

This little cafe was everything I wanted and more! Places to get Korean corn dogs are few and far between so I was pleased to discover Palgong Tea! I ended up getting the combo of a corn dog and an "Ade", a fizzy drink with a multitude of flavors available. I went with the all cheese corn dog with sugar and ketchup for toppings and the lemon "ade". The corn dog was extremely fresh and hot and the cheese pull was ridiculous. The drink was super refreshing and paired well with the savory item. Overall, my meal was delicious and I will 100% be back to try more items and revisit the corn dogs! read more

This is the first place in Ann Arbor that I've seen that sells Korean corn dogs! I was so excited to try this place out because I haven't had Korean corn dogs since I left Texas to come to college. The corn dogs are very good; I got the cheese dog. They're a bit small for the price but that may be because I'm from Texas and everything is bigger in Texas. You only get to choose 2 sauces for free; after that, each sauce if 10 cents. That's actually pretty expensive but again, it might be because I'm from Texas and back there the sauces are all free and you can get as much as you want. You can also put potato pieces on your corn dog for an extra cost. I got the hot plum tea, which was delicious. The staff is very polite and bought cups of water for us to go with our corn dogs. Looking forward to coming here again! read more

This place is my favorite restaurant, if your trying to find a place that is quiet and relaxing to study/work or even just hangout.

Tried the brown sugar milk tea and one of the green grape Bingsoo. Both delicious. Will come here all the time.

The staff here is really funny and sweet. The environment is clean and cute. Those corndog things are THE BEST. We got cheese sticks crusted in potatoes topped with sugar. 10/10. The green grape ade was really interesting too. Added lychee popping boba. I'll for sure go back. read more

When I am in Ann Arbor, "corn dog" is not the first thing that comes to mind, but the Korean gamja hot dog I ate here is possibly one of the most decadent, delicious things I have ever eaten. So long Zingermans, hello Palgong! I have no idea what the nutritional breakdown is, so how about "not healthy"? I chose the half cheese/half sausage version covered with basically small french fry cubes. My topping was honey mustard, my daughter chose spicy mayo. It was fresh, hot, crispy and surprisingly not greasy. A flavor explosion. For convenience, the paperboard box that it is served in has a slot at one end so that as you eat down the stick you can push the corn dog up to the top. No messy fingers. The shop itself is bright and airy, exceptionally clean. Very friendly and efficient staff. Thank goodness I live 45 miles away. read more

this was my first time trying the Korean corn dog & I loved it I suggested so many friends to come here I will definitely be back !

I ordered 2 drinks and when the first one came out 5 minutes later, the person said "here you go" and just stood there. I realized he must have forgotten my second drink so I told him I ordered 2 drinks and so I had to wait for that one to be made. When the worker was making my drink, he was talking about steaming the tea to make it hot? but then right after he made it, he looked at the order and asked "wait is this iced or hot?" to his coworker and since I overheard, I said I ordered it with ice....shouldn't you ask that before you make the drink? So now the drink is really hot but instead of making a new one, he just added ice in the cup. The ice kept melting so he kept adding more ice. My cup then overflowed and he was taking his time wiping my cup down a bunch of times before deciding to pour some of my drink out to stop the overflowing. 10 minutes later, I finally got my lemon green tea but all of the extra ice was melted and my drink was still really warm. It also now tasted very watered down because of all the ice that was added but kept melting. I waited 15 minutes for 2 drinks (1 that really didn't taste good and wasn't cold even though I wanted it iced) when there was only one person that was originally in front of me. I wish I had just cancelled my order and asked for a refund instead of waiting all that time for this drink. I would rather go to other boba shops in Ann Arbor. read more
