Great cute place for boba or Bingsu. I got the strawberry one and it huge so definitely split it with others. The chicken was okay some of it was slightly overburnt for the smaller size so probably would not order that again. But the Bingsu was definitely worth it. Staff was super helpful and nice. read more

Awesome spot in Cary to come for some boba and sweet drinks, some delicious bites and tasty dessert! We ordered a bunch of different drinks, toasts and shaved iced dessert. I loved every item we got. My favorite thing was the signature toast, but everything we got was great. We ordered at the counter and all our items came out in about 10-15 minutes. The decor inside was also super cute :) I also like that you can find their menu online and it has all the prices listed. I'll always come here for a sweet drinks/treat. There was plenty of seating inside and some tables outside as well read more

Cute little place with cozy vibes, perfect for a casual hangout/peacefThey serve boba, ice desserts, savory chicken bites, toast, and even soup - a unique mix that works! We tried the shaved ice - went with a half mango, half strawberry combo (medium size), and added 5 toppings. It was delicious, super refreshing, and surprisingly enough for 3 people to share! Definitely planning to visit again soon to try their boba teas. Great spot for both sweet and savory cravings! read more

Love the new Chicken bites and the new Drink to celebrate the Lunar New Year. It sparkles and shine. It is Strawberry with lychee and strawberry jelly and glitters. The chicken is crunchy on the outside and tender inside. There's three flavours, Thai chili, salt and pepper, and basil. I opted for the salt and pepper since I was sharing with a toddler. read more

Cute dessert spot! I got the PB&J toast with strawberries, which they put a lot of effort into making. Presentation was really pretty. The toast itself was really good - soft and fluffy but with a crispy outside. Staff were really nice. Only issue when I was there was the wifi didn't work. read more

SweetTea Boba is my favorite boba place in Cary! I work pretty close to this shop so I'm able to stop in for a sweet treat! My favorite drink is their matcha with brown sugar boba but the other night I stopped in late so I got the A5 which is caffeine free! Im so glad they have caffeine free options so you can enjoy their boba at anytime. I also love that everything is pink and the shop is always clean. It's definitely a little on the pricey side for a sweet treat but it's delicious. read more

This weekend I went to SweeTea for the first time. I was surprised and delighted by my experience! A few of us brought our laptops for an afternoon of work while we sipped boba and had some popcorn chicken. Right away, we were greeted by a couple workers who were friendly and gave us our time to figure out what drinks we wanted. The service was consistently warm and welcoming through the time we left later in the day. I got the matcha milk tea @ 25% sweet, less ice, with mango jelly. The drink was made really well, and it wasn't too sweet, which is exactly what I wanted. We also got the popcorn chicken, and the chicken came out hot and tasty in about 10 minutes. The chicken itself was really good. Quick note about flavors! The one we got did not compare to popcorn chicken at a Taiwanese snack shop. (The seasoning is different, and there's no crispy basil if you're accustomed to that.) I believe the cafe has a few flavor options. Something to be aware of! I look forward to trying more, including the one we got, because it was great. It's a shame I didn't snap pictures because the interior is well-appointed with bright colors and tons of personality! From the colorful window lighting through the wall and bathroom decor, no spot has been forgotten! read more

[3.5 stars] Haiku: SweeTea Boba & Ice Order their shave ice. Romantic and chic inside Cute date and friend spot. --- SweeTea is such a cute and romantic boba shop. The ambiance is truly the star of this shop. It's decor is chic pink with velvety soft, scalloped edge chairs and lots of brush gold detail. The shave ice and pretty fruit drinks seems to be the popular items to order. Next time I'll come back with a small group of friends to try the shave ice. They use organic half & half and premium brewed tea leaves for their milk teas. We ordered something more traditional, Iced Grass Jelly. It came in a smaller, than expected cup. It still tasted delicious though. Don't order the Taro Milk Tea if you're expecting fresh taro. This drink is made from the purple powder and has that artificial taste. Some people like that, but I wish I knew beforehand. The service is incredibly friendly and helpful. The lady helped me with all my questions about the menu. read more

With all the boba tea places popping up all over the triangle, this is still one of our favorites. The teas are always quality brewed tea...you could taste the difference compared to other places. Service is always attentive and efficient. They did update their seating recently to offer more seating. The menu was also streamlined by doing away with the cute names and offering a more personalized approach to customizing your own boba drink. read more

What a cute little shop that has opened up next to the Fresh Market in Cary. There were a little busy when I first stopped by, so I went into Fresh Market first and decided to come back when I finished shopping. Good call. Once I came out, there was only one other customer inside. Perfect timing. The location is small but decorated nicely. It is set-up for those perfect food shots! The menu is very detailed and well laid out on the wall. You are able to understand what's within each drink and what to expect - I love it. There is a wide variety - so there is something for everyone. The staff were very friendly and inviting. I ended up ordering something that was like mango on top of milk "jelly" for my friend. She was so excited with the presentation of the dessert and stated it tasted amazing! read more

SweeTea Boba and Ice made an incredibly strong first impression on me. Upon entering the store, you're greeted with a very elegant and inviting atmosphere. The aesthetic decorations set up for some very fancy photos. Their menu offers a plethora of drinks ranging from your everyday milk teas, milk cap series, fruit teas, smoothies, and specialty combination drinks. There were so many that I had to take a moment to read all of the options before I decided on what I wanted to order. While I was looking at the menu, the staff offered to provide some suggestions to me. I rarely find staff members feeling confident enough to provide suggestions based on what I like, and even less feel confident enough to initiate the conversation and offer to help me find an order I would enjoy. This honestly just shows that they know what they are doing and are confident in their menu. I think that star of the show here was the specialty drink from their "Special Moment Series". These drinks offer some very unique combinations that I was skeptical of at first, but turned out to be amazing and flowed very well together. I was specifically hesitant about the sea salt milk cap in the BFF drink. But after drinking it, the sea salt really compliments the sweet aspects of the drink, and is never overbearing or shadowed by the other sweet ingredients. It was honestly very well-thought-out craftsmanship, and I'm excited to come back and try out the other drinks from this category. Really cool place and will be back to try out more of their menu. Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area! read more

Came for the sweets so lemme just say that it was AMAZING. We also had boba, but drank all that before we got any pics cus it was so perfect. The decorations and vibe was so chic and cute. Felt like a ice cream museum I went to in Texas. The missing star is because of the service. I like to let y'all know what to expect, not just my personal opinions. The staff was very much: take your order, go make it, and put it on the bar. Not that engagement is necessary, just would've made the experience 5 stars! read more

This pretty little shop serves delicious boba milk teas. I love the taro milk tea with boba. You can customize the sweetness and type of milk used. There are seasonal specials. They offer BOGO drinks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. read more

Atmosphere: SweeTea is playfully decorated with lots of pink! There is seating available inside to enjoy your drink. Service: The service was friendly, and we received our drinks quickly as it was pretty empty when we visited. SweeTea runs BOGO free drink promotions on Tuesdays and Wednesdays if you come with a friend, which we think is a great deal! Food: We ordered a Graduation and a Brown Sugar Milk Tea, both as is in terms of add-ons and sweetness levels. The drinks were both extremely sweet, so we'd recommend getting a reduced sweetness level based on your preference. The Graduation, consisting of a peach slush with crystal boba and mango star jelly, was refreshing. The Brown Sugar Milk Tea was sweet, toasty, and warm. Overall: For value, SweeTea has the best deal in the Triangle for their Tuesdays and Wednesdays BOGO drink promo. One point of emphasis is that their standard option is incredibly sweet, which is great if you want to dilute it and stretch out your drink for maximum value. read more

I absolutely love Sweetea. If you are a fan of traditional Taiwanese desserts/sweets like boba milk tea or shaved ice, you will fall in love with this place. If you're not familiar, you will be in for a treat. The shaved ice features a couple variations including the traditional Four in Love that has taro paste and taro balls and red beans or you can go for the more fruit forward Strawberry Kisses that is full of fresh strawberries, strawberry ice cream, and puree. Both have the traditional condensed milk added in. Great to share with a partner as you'll probably get a sugar rush if you try to finish one on your own! The store is so cutely decorated, and has a friendly staff there. The store vibe is about creating sweet moments which shines throughout. Located in a shopping center in Cary in the #Raleigh suburbs. read more

We shared the matcha shaved ice which was HUGE and could be shared with 3-4 people. Overall, tea quality is good and I love how extensive the menu is. The owner and workers are also very sweet and shared that they make all of their toppings in house except the boba pearls.

Welcome Sweetea Boba and Ice! This was such an awesome first experience. First of all, i side was so inviting and unlike other shops I've seen. It was spacioua enough to sit down with friends or to get some work done. Additionally, their employees were super nice and the owner/manager took the time to speak with the incoming customers and my friends and me. Upon ordering, she actually made a wonderful suggestion which also indicated that she was prepped and knew the menu. I told them I wanted a classic milk tea with boba and grass jelly, and they suggested I order the Sweethearts drink. She said it's almost like your order, but it also has pudding if that's something new I would like to try. I appreciated the thought in that, so I took her recommendation! It was delicious. The tea flavor didn't come out as much as I would have liked. I noticed the ice they used was crushed so maybe it melted and watered it down some?? Nonetheless, it was good overall. The toppings in the drink (boba, grass jelly, and pudding) were fantastic. The owner/manager actually told me that the grass jelly and pudding was all made in house and not from a can, which I definitely tasted something different than other places, a deeper flavor profile, more fragrant. My friends also got a shaved ice in the matcha flavor. Again, THE TOPPINGS were ON POINT. Also, this was my first time having matcha boba!! Such an exciting time. I am looking forward to visiting more in the (near) future. read more

A new gem in Cary! We were very excited to see this shop open in our neighborhood - our first visit was amazing. The store itself is gorgeous. The interior is pristine, and the decor is both cute and luxurious. The tables are a nice size and a high quality faux marble look, with really comfortable pink velvet chairs. It's a place that looks like a lot of love and care and pride went into designing it. We were planning on just grabbing drinks to go, but ended up staying because the ambiance was so happy. The menu is clearly displayed on screens that are easy to read but take a bit to digest because of the wide variety of offerings. We spent a good amount of time studying it while the cashier patiently waited and offered guidance as we asked questions. She was very cheerful and helpful, and ended up giving great advice. If you're not familiar with different boba tea options, the staff were very patient and good at explaining. Pictures of some of the drinks might have been helpful. I went with the Graduation which is a peach fruit slush with jelly - it was phenomenal and something I'll definitely order again. Fruit slushes are a less creamy version of a smoothie which I find to be really refreshing. My husband ordered a Fruit Tea which was also delicious. Both drinks were quite large - we ended up not really needing dinner afterward. I noticed afterwards that there are options to order with different levels of sweetness which I might try next time - my drink was delicious, but given the size a little less sugar might be good. I also want to try the shaved ice next time. We'll be back! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they add a honeydew melon fruit slush in the future (my all time favorite). read more

This place is so cute and cozy, and very clean! This was my first time trying this boba place. I met up with a friend and we sat for about 2 hours and it was never overly busy or crowded. When I first entered I was quietly greeted by one of the staff members. I ordered a strawberry matcha. It was decent. It was sort of bland tasting until I would get a bit of the strawberry purée in the straw. (Yes I did mix the drink). It seemed like the strawberry to milk ratio wasn't balanced enough. It was ok tasting overall, but definitely not my favorite place to get strawberry matcha. I could definitely go back if I was meeting someone, but wouldn't go back because I was desiring their drink alone. read more

The location had cute decorations and ample seatings. Service was fast and friendly. We ordered the strawberry cap and gown, classic milk tea with boba, and jasmine milk tea with grass jelly. The boba texture was slightly chewy and soft. Both milk teas tasted watery with no tea flavor. The milk cap for the strawberry cap and gown definitely stole the show. The milk cap was rich and perfectly sweetened, but the slushie component was way too sweet, and it tasted like a starburst. I'm not sure if that's what I should be expecting from a strawberry slushie. Overall, we were left disappointed because the location has raving reviews. Will not return. read more

This is a cute, local dessert store, and I'm pretty sure it's the only place in the Triangle (besides the chain Meet Fresh in Chapel Hill) where you can find Taiwanese grass jelly/taro ball desserts. The owner seemed sweet and accommodating and asked me clarifiyignwhen making my order. I got the G1 Iced Grass Jelly, which came with grass jelly, boba, taro balls, and red bean, and I was able to switch out the red bean for taro paste. All the toppings were great! Chewy boba and taro ball, flavorful grass jelly and taro paste. The toppings are sweet by themselves, so keep that in mind if you want to order a lower sweetness level. The portion was big and definitely could substitute as a meal or be shared. read more
