After they closed down Diho the grocery store next to it and after so many other boba places opened up I'd have thought Quickly would be gone too. I used to go here about 10 years ago so this place hits home. Back then the milk tea, mango (or strawberry) slush were 99 cents. Nowadays it's about $1.10-$1.20 something. If you add boba or a jelly it'll be about $1.25-1.50. The milk tea doesn't taste like milk teas from other places around the area. It's more bitter as if it's iced coffee or they brew their tea stronger or have less milk. The milk teas and other places around the area are sweeter and milkier. It's just different. They use powder for most of their standard flavors from the menu. The only time I've witnessed them making drinks from fresh ingredients are when I've ordered one of the handwritten seasonal specials on the makeshift signs at the cash register. Quickly is one of the cheaper alternatives for boba in the area. I don't prefer it because I like the milkier sweeter versions at other places but that's a matter of preference that'll vary between people. read more

Quickly's has become my go to stop when I need a drink on a hot day running around. This is a great location, clean, nice staff and huge selection. I love the flavored teas as well as the slush and switch off depending on my mood. The prices are cheap, best value on a huge refreshing drink anywhere, lasts me through the rest of the day for less than $4, I'll be back! read more

There is only a few ways you can arrive to this place. You would have to be really lost to arrive at this destination. It is in a bad location where there is hardly any foot traffic that passes by. There is no way anyone can see that place unless they stop by Vietnam Garden... hahaha.. good luck with that too. I can see why everyone avoided this place and why it's so deserted when I came in. It was so filthy and unkempt. I don't need to wonder why nobody wants to come in. Looking at this place will tell why it's so hazardous. Some of those tables are not even cleaned... and no one is in there! The disappointing part of me ordering a milk tea was that I had a feeling it's was mixed with powder that was not dissolved completely. Then it is added with tap water. Oh, I had witnessed it and can testify to that. Believe me.. I almost wanted to throw up when I had seen how they are making my drink. Needless to say I didn't finished my drink and just tossed it with 80% full. I will never go back there again. Not even a typhoon can blow me into this joint. Once you walk in, you'll change your mind ordering any drink from this place. read more

Update: They accept credit cards! I come here for the beef noodle soup and strawberry slush and it's good for a cheap price! Can't go wrong! read more

Came here with my friend a couple of weeks ago, and the while the milk tea with boba has gone up a little bit, its still way cheaper than tapioca express. The current cost is $1.09 with tax it ended up being $1.19. Still cheap, and I would still come here to just drink milk tea. By the way when are they going to redo this plaza? read more

After eating in the Cerritos area, my friend wanted Boba so she took me to this place. She was like, "CHEAP BOBA IS THE BEST BOBA!" No, it's not. This place is pretty creepy to me because it's in the corner of a very unappealing plaza, and there are creepy men sitting out front. We ordered milk tea, which was like $1...Watching them make the boba, I was expecting freshly made boba, but nope it was premade in their fridge thing and they just poured it in. The pitcher looked pretty gross and unclean too. I did not like it at all. Regular boba like at Lollicup which is like a few streets down Pioneer is like a dollar ish more. Yes, it costs more, but it's better quality!!! read more

I stumbled on to Quickly when visiting Littlie India Grill that is located in the same plaza, saw the advertised 99c Tapioca Milk Tea special ordered it and have been a semi-regular customer ever since. True to its name Quickly has most of its milk tea's pre-made and when you order it is quickly poured it into a cup, sealed and you are on your way. Of-course its cash only considering the miniscule ticket size of their typical orders. The milk tea itself is pretty good. It is definitely on the sweeter side but its not too sweet, the boba is a little hard and not the soft chewy types that you get at more upscale boba joints but it is manageable. Truthfully I have not tried any other drink or food item apart from their 99c Tapioca Milk (which by the way is now $1.10), so I cant comment on them but the special is good enough to keep me coming back for a post lunch drink. read more

I highly recommend this Quickly! I have tried almost all of their Slushys and I've enjoyed them all. Thank you for staying open through this pandemic and the quick service. I will be back soon. read more

My go-to cheap boba place when the craving for milk tea hits. It's nothing fancy and doesn't try to be, but it hits the spot without emptying the wallet. Recent gripe: My $1 boba tea went up to $1.10. Grr. Recent(er) gripe: Now it's $1.29 and .65¢ extra to swap egg pudding. Grrrrrr. :( read more

Quick Lee That will be the name of my bf and I future child b/c his last name is Lee. Hahaha! Now back to why this place is da bomb! Have you noticed all the local boba shops in the area, the drinks are like $2.99+ ???? That is like crazy! No one should pay $2.99 for boba drinks. Over here at Quickly, all drinks are like $1.99 or cheaper! The regular milk tea with boba is only 99 cents. During this heatwave, everyone needs a local cheap boba place. Please do not go to tea station down the street because paying like $3-4 for boba is total rip off and boba places should really stop doing that. read more

Their boba is good Their fried tofu is sooo good and you get plenty popcorn chicken sucks though read more

Awesome finger food! The fried tofu is so yummy. The fried combination is what I usually get. For sure try the popcorn chicken! If you are in a hurry call in your food order. It is not quick for fried things. Drinks are very quick to come out. Slush is a kid favorite! read more

I come here sometimes after eating dinner at Kim Tar in the same center and I'm frugal and too lazy to drive to Lollicup or Teastation. I always get the $1 tapioca milk tea, not expecting much. It always tastes like I'm drinkin watered down milk and hard, cold boba but sometimes the drink is actually decent. I probably would never come here if I wasn't eating at one of the restaurants in that center - I usually just come here for a (hopefully) sweet drink fix after dinner. Honestly, if you're looking for good, cheap tapioca milk tea, you should just drive down pioneer and pay the extra 50 centers for a much better drink. read more

Menu posted here on Yelp is not accurate. This establishments menu is maybe half of what is advertised here.

Love this little spot. So far I've tried the Coconut Milk Tea with boba, and Mango slush. The coconut milk tea is good, not too sweet or overbearing. The boba is a bit soft, but pairs well with the tea...so good! read more

Talk about 99cents Tapioca Milk! It's not bad for the price and the quality! It goes with their yummy fried snacks! :) Ordered the Fried combination and it was seasoned mild spicy. It was good & and a plate is also good for two people to share! Everything on their menu is not expensive and it's a good place to get snacks and chill with your college friends! Located in the India Town and close by a lot of Boba shops but I bet nothing beats a 99c boba from Quickly! Parking is not an issue at all but maybe if you come out here lunch or in the afternoon, it might be a little packed. Coming back in the future! :) read more

Pretty good for its price! I got the Strawberry Mango Smoothie with boba. It was delicious!

I'm addicted to the spicy popcorn chicken. I had the extra spicy popcorn chicken which was really good and extremely spicy, and I have a pretty high spice tolerance. They give you a lot of chicken and not too much breading like other places. read more

Zero stars if I could...the lady that was at the cashier was rude to the point where my kids and I left the place. Very disappointing with the customer service :( the only quickly place where they only had one selection of boba too read more

Quick and easy boba spot and very reasonably priced. I got their milk tea and it was great.

Very reasonably priced and a good value. They have a lot of specials here like the lemon tea and aloe drink but unfortunately you don't get stamps with the specials. I usually get the boba milk tea which is good. It has a great flavor and isn't watered down. The boba is average Quickly boba. The people who work here are friendly enough and the eating area and bathroom are always clean. When I'm in the area I always make a point to stop by. read more

Bought two large honey milk teas and both were extremely watered down. Mentioned this to the worker Karina and she was very rude and said she just followed the recipe. No acknowledgment of our experience and no attempt to make it right. I kindly mentioned that I've been here multiple times and it never tasted this way. She did not care. We will never be back and we'll be sure to tell everyone we know not to come back either. I should have known better when the last time I came here, they messed my order up by giving me a smaller size. They fixed this by adding more ice and water. Never again. read more

Update: I found a verbose register person and got the scoop. Tapioca Milk 0.99 (boba included-aka milk tea) To add boba to any other drink 0.50 extra each. We will now return you to your normal programming. Like a shooting star, one disappeared tonight. During the day I can get a tapioca milk for $1.09 (after tax) but tonight I got 2 of the 0.99 drinks and it came to $2.77. Sometimes I have heard they charge 0.50 extra for boba, but the time I got the tapioca milk the boba was included for the total price. I'm feeling the russian roulette pricing change is going to stop me from coming here too often. But, even as iffy as pricing has been, each of these were still $1.385 each. And it seems that the boba was a 0.25 extra. Still cheaper, but consistent would be better. read more

never disappoints, always a good spot to have a snack or dessert with friends & family, boba is always well priced and food is made when you order. 10/10. read more

Ghetto cheap gangstah-ness is always a quality I look for when it comes to snacks! For $6, I got a big ol bag of spicy chicken bites, milk boba tea and mulberry slushy. Was here at around 10:00PM on a weeknight and apparently I ran into the new owner. Him and this other guy were looking like they were looking at fixing the new stove. The staff must of gone home b/c the owner was trying to help me out and boy did he NOT know what he was doing! haha That was a good thing btw! SPICY CHICKEN BITES: My spicy chicken bites were crispy and hella spicy. He gave me about 3x the amount you normally get at other Quickly joints or any other boba places. SCORE!!! I got a boba milk tea but he was outta boba so he asked if he could give me lychee jelly instead. Did he really have to ask? Hell yeah I wanted it! Especially for $1.18, he filled me up pretty good too! My friend liked the Mulberry slush ($0.99!) I haven't had spicy chicken bites for a while since most places make it pretty mild, but I admit, my mouth was pretty tingly. I told him SUPER DUPER UPER SPICY and he delivered! GOOD JOB NEW OWNER~! In this recession, I ain't looking for gourmet snacks with fun cozy ambiance. Just don't make me sick and don't rap3 my wallet! I'll just eat it in the car if I have to! read more

Don't we all get boba cravings occasionally? With mixed reviews on Yelp and my friends, you get what you pay for here at Quickly. It's not the best milk tea you've had and the boba might get too hard and not chewy after dark, but it's 99 cents and it satisfies the craving. They also have mini boba sometimes and my favorite, lychee jelly. There's usually parking available right out front you really do get it quickly. read more

Love their fries and popcorn chicken, which is always hot and crispy. Their milk tea is so good, sweet and refreshing, which is a popular special of this place for only $1.08. read more

I love the beef noodle soup from this place. Green tea no sugar with lychee jelly is bomb drink!

Quickly's is a tiny and hidden boba place in the midsts of Artesia, bordering Cerritos. My friend and I come here when we need to get away from the city but need Asian food at the same time. I know, what a contradiction since we live in AsiaLand. Anyway, the people that work here don't speak English very well, but they understand everything you're saying. The food is mediocre but cheap so it's worth it for the price you're paying for it. The beef noodle soup is what we always get but I wanted to try something different time time. I decided to order the peking noodles because I wanted something dry and it turned out to be delicious [plus cheap]! It was about 3-4 dollars for food I couldn't finish. It also made a great lunch. Anyway, the milk tea is 99 cents here so I think that pretty much cancels out everything I said since that's the most important thing about this place. P.S. They don't accept credit cards and the bank next door rapes you on service charges. There's a B of A and WAMU in the area so be prepared because you're going to need that dollar for the milk tea. read more

10/10 recommend !! I love love loveeee this place so much. This is my go to boba place. Every single time I want boba, this is the place I'll hit up all the mf time. They have so many different drinks and food to choose from. The great thing about this place is that it is so mf cheapppp. It's basically a win-win situation. You can have great boba for a great price. read more

I absolutely love this place especially because they let you order in bulk so you can sell the boba for fundraisers for different organizations. Their milk tea is perfect too not sweet or any thing. read more

Very cheap, my favorite! when I'm around that area. I like their milk tea, almond milk tea. They have really good taro... milk tea? which isn't SUPER sweet and doesn't taste powdery at all. Quality seems good to me, it's cheap - what do you REALLY expect? They'd lose lots of money if it was cheap and extravagant. Never tried the food but I love their cheap drinks [[: mmm cheap, tasty boba. read more

This review is only for the milk tea, since that's the only thing I ever get.. Since leaving Cerritos nearly two years ago, I still miss and crave this place on a regular basis. Only $1.63 for a large milk tea with boba! You just can't find that in South County.. Trust me! :( Their milk tea is the best tasting, imo. Not too sweet, not too strong and just lightly flowery. The boba is always on point; never gooey, never undercooked. And the fact they're open late, always means I can stop by for one of my favorite treats before hopping back on the 5 and going home :) A must have every time I'm in the area! read more

I gotta be honest, my friend took me here to eat dinner cuz they have "the best beef noodles soup!". When i realized she was taking me to a Quickly I was instantly skeptical. Then I read the reviews on yelp and was grabbing for my keys to go home, pick up some chipotle on the way and never look back. But then i got distracted by the stuffed animal claw game and forgot what I was doing. Next thing you know I'm there's a bowl of noodles in front of me and MAN those noodles pack some flavor in them. We also got the pork chop noodles and I was blown away by the melt in your mouth deliciousness that ensued. The first bite was only surpassed by the last savory gnaw off the bone I took before blasting my taste buds with my favorite: taiwanese sausage. Now by no means is this the best food I EVER had but the surprise ninja attack on my flavor cortex these dishes gave me was definitely worth the $6 a bowl I paid for them. Okay I didn't pay, she did. But that's just how I roll. Give the food a try here, the boba is aight too. read more

How can you beat 99 c boba and delicious deep-friend tofu! YUM. The deep-fried tofu was a vegetarian's dream. Tastes like popcorn chicken, but its tofu. Awesome. read more

My #1 spot for popcorn chicken and cheap boba. I've been coming here since high school and they have not disappointed me yet. The shop is quite small and the cashiers are very nice. I usually call ahead for my order and pick it up. Service is fast and efficient and I never have to wait. Their popcorn chicken does get really spicy even when I order mild. But it's ok, they're yummy drinks make up for the heat. You seriously can't beat cheap and delicious food. A great little shop for quick snacks and refreshing drinks!! read more

I probably shouldn't have ordered their chocolate milk boba, it was by far the worst I've ever had

Taste for food good drinks and best of all really good prices I will definitely return. I got a slushy, Thai tea ,popcorn chicken.The total was under $9 something and you have to spend at least $10 to use a debit card so I added another slushy and it barely went over $10 read more

Cheap and delicious. Just the way my milk tea & boba should be. Service isn't always "quickly" especially when it gets hectic and busy, but they do crank the drinks out as fast as they can. And like most Quickly locations -- cash only. My only complaint was their portable AC wasn't cranking nearly enough cold air when we went. Minor gripe. I just love my polar air! read more
