It is very close to the campus. I have been here on numerous occasions and can say the quality of tea and boba used is excellent. The boba is moist and soft. The flavors and options are endless and the teas always have a good amount of sugar but to make it even better you can adjust every drink with percentages on ice, toppings and sugar levels. I would highly recommend this place for the fresh teas, the brown sugar bubble tea and jasmine milk tea all with boba.

I told them I couldn't drink coffee and they gave me coffee anyways and when I asked if I could get a refund they argued with me and said that the order is what I wanted even though they have a video proof of me saying that the order wasn't mine. And when I asked for a refund for injustice and unconsidered service, they finally wanted to give me my drink. Unless you're Asian or white - there is no good service !!!

A Sweet Surprise on Broadway…read more Thanks to Yelp for the invite to check out Bambu at 5010 N Broadway. My family and I stopped by for drinks, and it turned into a fun little discovery. The space itself is quaint and tiny, but nicely decorated. Seating for maybe six small groups, so this is really a grab-and-go spot rather than a place to settle in. I liked that they use self-service kiosks to order. It makes browsing the full menu easy and takes the pressure off when you're deciding with a group. Now, the drinks. This is where Bambu earns its stripes. Expect bold, unusual flavor combinations, and a generous helping of jelly mixed right into the drink. It's not your average boba shop. Every sip felt like a little experiment, and honestly, that's what made it memorable. A couple of things to know before you go. Prices run about 20 percent higher than similar spots nearby, so budget accordingly. And parking is genuinely tough. My advice: park a block away and walk over, or swing by if you're already strolling the neighborhood. Whatever you do, don't double park. Broadway moves fast here, and cars zoom by constantly. Would I go back? Absolutely. Bambu is worth the walk for something a little different. Give me a thumbs up if this gave you a little more insight

I 100% recommend this spot if you're looking for low-call smoothies/pre-workout teas that don't break the bank and hardly taste of protein powder at all. I'm proud to be part of this pack!

They have regular tables, and then there is a fun section where you can sit on the floor. Outdoor seating in the front and back too. The shop in the back is cool and has a nice variety of clothes, jewelry, books, and gifts. Lots of travel items to match the theme of the cafe. The desserts are homemade and so impressive! The pear Bundt cake was really moist and flavorful. I loved the peanut butter and chocolate pie that was vegan and gluten free and awesome. So delicious! The milkshakes are amazing! I had a boozy one and it was so smooth and easy to drink. They also have good cocktails. I enjoyed a margarita here. The coffees are fantastic! I loved my Thai iced coffee. The matchas are wonderful. I've had the matcha latte and the matcha freeze. I've loved everything I've had so far. Tasty bagels and eggs. The bagel and schmear hits the spot. Nice salads too.

I've been here twice total now, and both times the food has been excellent. I didn't realize this place was pescatarian the first time. I picked the mister grecco panini for the artichoke hearts: It was a little salty due to the olives, but it wasn't overwhelming.

I usually come in here for a quick healthy lunch from their lunch salad buffet or a slice of pizza from the pizza table.

I'm on this eco-friendly kick and trying to eat better (although a 17-year vegetarian), so I was…read moreecstatic to hear about Too Good To Go. As much as I hear about great, fresh food being wasted, this seemed like an obvious app to download. And by this being a smoothie place, I 100% assumed I'd get fruit in this "surprise" bag. A banana, at the very least. They go bad just by looking in their direction. Instead, I ended up paying $3.99 for seven containers of jalapeno corn and two bags of jalapeno chips. The chips were curious in itself because they don't expire until June of this year, so either they're not selling well or the restaurant was trying to add a little variety to the surprise bag. The corn made sense. They would have probably had to throw those out. But it just seemed like a peculiar bag when I could clearly see them making three or four smoothies for other customers. I got there at 7:30 p.m. They close at 8 p.m. I'm having a tough time believing that they didn't end up throwing out any remaining fruit. While I'm definitely going to give Too Good To Go Inc. another shot, it won't be here. I wish management would encourage its employees to give out the "good" stuff that's left. Why? You end up with a repeat customer regardless of the app, and I'd never been in there before. The customer service was strange, too. I walked in. There was one guy at a table and another waiting by the pickup area. The smoothie guy kept on making smoothies but never acknowledged me. You would've thought it was 30 people in there with the way he was moving. I assumed it was my fault and walked to the register instead of the pickup area. A lady came out and looked at me. I showed her my app and forgot the name of the company, but they realized what I was talking about. Then the guy just walked away for a few minutes. I didn't know if he was going home for the night or bringing me a bag. And the lady just took over with making the same shakes he was making. Then the guy popped back up. These two work awkwardly together. On an up note, however, it's convenient to park here on Sundays when Target is closed. The underground lot is not.)

It was 9 am Saturday, the place wasn't packed and the outdoor seating open. We were seated quickly. Water got brought out quickly and drink order was taking fast too. We started looking at the food menu and sadly nothing stood out to us for the prize they were asking. So we decided to not get food and just do the latte. When the waitress came ready into take our food order, we told her we will just do the latte, she visibly got mad, abruptly took our menu & walked off without a word girl relax. Is it by force that we have to order food? Anyways we got our $10 latte, which was disappointing and didn't taste great. Overall the experience started off good then the waitresses attitude at the end ruin the whole experience. We didn't try the food so maybe it's good if they're getting away with those prices y'all let me know lol Definitely will not be going back.
