Local Chicago chain and I had to give them a try while I was here. We choose the Navy Pier location. I thought it was pretty unique to get my jasmine soy milk latte in a can. Neat! Enjoy outside and watch the sightseeing boats leave for Lake Michigan. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

I tried the Everything Bagel Bao and it was good. The girl who helped me was very nice. She helped me decide to get the everything bagel Bao, it just had cream cheese in it so it kinda tasted like a super soft bagel with cream cheese. It's a cute shop in Navy Pier. The only reason I knocked off a star was because of the price, it was almost $7 for one Bao. If it was bigger then that price would be more justified. read more

This was an AWESOME spot in Navy Pier! We were getting food and noticed this place, and it was even on the InKind app so we get a welcome offer to use. Between the two of us, we split the Mango Coco Bliss and Ube Dalgona Coffee W/Boba. The mango drink was super refreshing and not overly sweet. The Ube Coffee was AWESOME - the coffee itself was super smooth and tasty, and I loved the boba balls. One thing I didn't love was how wasteful the single use plastic was - definitely not great on the environment. Besides that, really liked the drinks! read more

Such a refreshing stop at Navy Pier, especially during peak summer! Out of all the eateries in the area, we gravitated here to satisfy my friend's sweet tooth. I was already stuffed from dinner, but thought, "Hey, a little boba can't hurt right?" Side note: as a non-local, I found the name endearing... but is it pronounced the English or the Spanish way? The line itself made it clear this spot was a hit with both locals and tourists alike. Location: Nestled inside Navy Pier in a generic (but heavenly) air conditioned food court. Getting there/parking: Drive, Uber/Lyft, bike, walk, scoot... take your pick. Parking? No clue, I happily skipped that struggle. Atmosphere: It's a food court on a weekend at dinnertime. Translation - loud, busy, and packed with hungry humans. Drinks: The main attraction! Their menu was like taking a quiz with too many right answers, and I mentally deliberated my options like I was on a game show. I settled on the banana dalgona matcha with boba. The verdict? Tasty! Though the banana came through loud and clear, the matcha was more of a quiet sidekick. Food: A colorful spread of desserts with an Asian twist - mochi donuts, mille crepe cakes, coconut panna cotta... a girl can dream. A few items already sold out (not sure if they restock), so it seems the early birds really do get the sweetest picks. Service: Orders go through a kiosk touchscreen, then the crew behind the counter works their magic. My drink was ready in about 5-10 minutes, which was pretty quick given the line. Price: Under $10, which feels pretty standard in the boba world. Being a sucker for discounts, promo codes, and freebies, I was delighted to snag a first-timer discount through their app. Would I return? Absolutely - solid boba and a perfect pit stop whenever I'm back in Chi-Town. read more

We got a quick snack at navy pier at Te'amo and I would say the drink is good but the matcha bao and the blueberry cheese cake mochi donut were not good. The egg shaped drink is very cute but the drink tag was hard to remove. The service was decent. You order off a kiosk then they call out your order. They were near food court seating and it's on a busy Saturday so it was pretty packed and hard to find a table. read more

This is a strong 4.5. we self ordered our drinks one matcha and one Ube/dalonga (sp?). We both enjoyed. I especially love it was lightly iced. The packaging was awesome. My friend did comment on not liking the bamboo straw but as a person who carries her own straw I appreciate it. I also thought it held up relatively well. My biggest thoughts were around the self order. I loved that I could modify drinks to have hot/iced, sweet level, foams, and both milk and jelly varieties. I did love the flavors on the menu; there were even seasonal flavors. For me boba is still infrequent and new enough that I have questions and would have preferred to speak with some one. But they do attempt to educate while still offering the self order (i.e. there was a little cheat sheet explaining some of lesser known jelly options.) pricing was fair except for the non dairy upcharge which was $2. read more

Excellent experience and a great add-on to your meal or just as a refreshing snack while at navy pier. I have yet to try the bubble tea, but have had their mochi donuts and cheesecake baos. And good lord their cheesecake baos are amazing!!! I loved the ube one. Not overly sweet, creamy inside and soft and chewy on the outside. It was heavenly. The mochi donuts are great too but I like the baos better (not sure about that pizza one though). I LOVE mille crepe cakes and must try these next time. The fact they're on InKind app helps a lot and service is really friendly and quick. This says a lot as they are constantly busy. Will definitely be going to other locations and wouldn't hesitate to go again soon! read more

Super convenient and quick turn around for all boba drinks. Order and pay at the kiosk and I waited maybe 3 minutes before my drink was made and ready to go which was outstanding. Ordered the creme brûlée ube milk tea with under 50% sugar--incredible flavor, the ube had a beautiful color to it, and the creme brûlée top was nicely salted. Highly recommend! read more

Located inside Navy Pier next to SALT Burgers + Fries. Ordering is through kiosks, which is a bit impersonal. We ordered a Sunrise smoothie, which has strawberry and mango. We added some crystal boba as well. It's interesting - I've never had a drink like this freshly canned before. I'm still not sure how I feel about it. On the one hand, transporting it is super easy since it's sealed. On the other hand, personally I think it's too much since I like my cold drinks right away before the ice and everything dilutes the drink. But I appreciate them not using the thin plastic seal that boba places normally use. So...not sure about it yet. Anyway, drink was made pretty quickly (it wasn't busy at all on a Sunday during lunchtime. Overall, it tasted pretty good! I liked the flavors - the strawberry was really prominent with the mango a little more subtle. Nice texture on the boba. The ice could have been blended a little more since there were some sizeable ice chunks still inside the drink. read more

It was like 7 bucks for a cup. Taste average. The price tag is probably for the vibe, gold and cute can/cup, pink napkins. A very girly store. And most of the customers are girls. This place sells like all asian/boba things. The boba drinks for one. They also sell boba plushy. Mochi donut (don't know if they're good tho). Coconut pudding- we were gonna get it but they're like 7-10 bucks, yikes. And fresh thai coconut. We had to give this place a try cuz they keep showing up wherever we go in chicago. read more

Delicious! I got the passion fruit yogurt green tea with boba & rose matcha latte with boba - fresh flavors and the passion fruit wasn't too strong nor was the green tea. Just a perfect mixture which is what I was wanting. Wish there was a little stronger yogurt flavor but I enjoyed this mixture. You're not able to change the sweetness but that's fine. It actually was perfectly sweet. - the rose matcha latte was delicious! Not very sweet but has the stronger earthy flavors. And the Rose is strong which is great and fragrant. Beautiful colors and great flavors - boba had a great texture to it. Con: there really isn't a size option. You get one size. Oh well. I'm glad I stopped by this location. It's right on the pier and didn't close early which was great. OH and you can also buy mochi donuts at one piece each - the ones I've seen in socal are mostly needing to buy a set at a time. They look delicious too. read more

Loveeee Te'Amo Boba Bar, so I was so happy to see it located inside Navy Pier's little mall/food court! Te'Amo is located deeper into the food court, so if you use the front entrance by the Children's Museum, you keep walking straight all the way down until you see it on the left side. If you enter from a different side it would be more easier to get to. Their spot is not small or big, but you can't miss it with its pink wall and menu. You order from the 2 kiosks they have on display and then an employee makes your drink and/or gathers your sweets. The employee was super personable and funny. I got the strawberry milk tea for the first time ever and it was DELICIOUS. Easily the best drink I've gotten at Te'Amo Boba Bar. I also added boba because like how could I not? I got a 6-pack mochi doughnuts, as well. I got one of each doughnut - my favorite is still the ube, but I truly love all. The matcha, strawberry, Oreo, and chocolate are all absolutely killer, too. There's plenty of seating since the seating is all general seating for all the food kiosks and stands in the food court. If I'm ever at Navy Pier and itching for a boba tea or sweet treat, Te'Amo will be my first stop! read more

Teamo Boba Bar is a women owned establishment, located inside the food court on Navy Pier. According to the locals, and my daughter too, this place serves very good boba. So we had to get some! Line was very busy when we arrived, but looked fast moving, so we got in the line. I ordered the Mango Lemonade boba with added Lychee. After ordering on the IPad on the counter, and paying for it on the same time, employees started working on it immediately and received it very quickly. The container was completely closed on the top. The straw was large enough for the boba and the chopped lychee in it. It made it very easy to enjoy the drink! I absolutely loved my Boba drink! read more

Cute spot in the navy pier food court. Needed something refreshing because the temps were in the 90s so we stopped here. Service is pretty non existant bc you ordered on a screen and they just hand it to you but I don't really mind bc at least I know my order was put in correctly. Unfortunately the green tea jasmine with lychee jelly wasn't great. The tea was over steeped so it had a strong bitter taste and the lychee jelly was overly floral. I honestly was fine with it bc it was still drinkable the can it came in was so freaking cute. Just wouldn't get it again. read more

A hidden gem at the Navy pier. A little difficult to navigate since they only have screens to order from but it's difficult to understand how the drinks are made because they come in a can top, but apparently the employee makes the drink and then screws on the can top, which was not clear. The drink themselves were awesome and I highly recommend them if you enjoy Boba. read more

Great quality boba! We ordered a tornado tea latte which is a Thai tea with cheese foam and Oreo. We could taste the Thai tea, and it was creamy and not too sweet. The Te'amo 02 was surprisingly pretty good. It is lemonade with butterfly pea tea and comes with the crystal boba and strawberry jelly which goes very well together. It does taste slightly artificial but I thought it was good nonetheless. The drinks come in a can which is cute for pictures and the drinks are a little high, but they use organic tea and good quality ingredients. Drinks came out fairly fast. I will definitely come back as they had a good selection of drinks. read more

We stopped by because my daughter HAD to try the boba that comes in a can that she'd saw in the window of another location. Being served in a can adds to the portability, but when you're drinking it immediately it's more just a cute cup. The mango lemonade was tasty but had a surprisingly fizzy tart taste that we did like, but were not immediately prepared. I think it was actually a nice change and would be refreshing on a hot day. The dalgona is delicious, particularly with added boba. The service was friendly and the product is fresh. We didn't try the desserts but they look nicely packaged to take home. read more

As much as I want to like Te'amo, the drinks and desserts are consistently below average. The coconut desserts are way took jelly-like, rather than being smooth and light, with a mix between jelly and liquid. The drinks are way over-priced for the quantity of beverage that you get. I have tried the cheesecake bao buns, but the bottoms are burnt. Maybe their other drink/dessert options are good, but it is hard to bring myself to go there again after consistently being disappointed. read more

I've been trying to find a local spot in VA that compares: not too sweet, quality ingredients nicely layered with almond butter as an option.

You have to try their Scandinavian-style flatbread sandwiches pressed in a panini. The Tunacado is one of my all-time favorites and never disappoints.

It's one of those spots I'll keep coming back to anytime I get the chance.

The shake was icy and had a strange after taste. It was drinkable but I would not recommend and will not get it again. I have had other drinks Joe & The Juice that I like but this is not one of them. I do appreciate them trying to incorporate higher protein options in their menu!

Deep Purpl

It was a totally random night. I had the munchies and I was stuck deciding between being an adult…read moreand waiting for delivery or being a child with zero patience and just placing a pick-up order. Sometimes when you're stoned you do the weirdest things and crave the weirdest stuff. I was scrolling on DoorDash for what felt like 67 years when I stumbled on Deep Purpl. Their menu literally screamed exactly what my munchies were demanding, so obviously I ordered everything. First up the Acai Bowl 20oz with banana, strawberry, kiwi, granola, organic honey, extra strawberries, and chia seeds. I am telling you this bowl changed me as a human. I had never had an Acai Bowl before and now I'm obsessed. Every fruit was fresher than fresh, the granola was a spiritual experience, and the balance of flavors was ridiculous. Then I got the PB Toast and I'm still asking myself why I hesitated to pay $6.99 for it. GAWD it was amazing. Crispy bread, peanut butter, banana, strawberries, blueberries, honey drizzle. The best $6.99 piece of toast I have ever had in my life. Because I clearly have no self-control I also grabbed the spinach and cheese empanada and malbec and beef empanada. No words. Everything was fantastic. Every single item was a joy to inhale and I will absolutely do it again. The DoorDash pick-up was super easy and the staff was incredibly friendly. The only minor gripe is they don't provide bags so I had to carry everything individually walking home, which was slightly annoying. But honestly the food, the vibes, and the experience? 10 out of 10. Will be back.

Tasty, healthy, reasonable price. 24 oz was a meal along with a slice of the PB toast- sturdy piece of a whole grain bread topped with bananas, berries, and a touch of honey that was good (not too sweet). Recommend!

Originally on a mission for a smoothie, I was greeted by a friendly staff member and a much larger menu than expected. There is a slew of inventive food that all looked amazing, ranging from sandwiches to noodles and sushi. I opted for the Maca Picchu smoothie, a mini cranberry muffin, and an empanada. I was blown away by how flavorful everything was! The smoothie was creamy, lightly sweet, and very refreshing. The mini muffin tasted like a firmer version of edible cookie dough and was a perfect sweet treat. The empanada was not crunchy, but it was flavorful and the vegan cashew cream was incredibly smooth. I was really impressed not only by the taste of the food, but the texture and presentation as well. There is a level of detail and care that is apparent and really exceptional. Consider me a fan- I'm already looking forward to not only the next visit, but to bring more plant-based meals into my kitchen as well!

I ordered me a sandwich and a "Feel Good" juice which includes Carrot, Turmeric, Ginger, Lemon, Apple, Olive Oil. Super yummy and very delicious. The female at the register was new and still learning the system so I was very patient with her as she was patient with me trying to figure what I'd like to order. She mentioned a few of the popular drinks and I ended up choosing the "feel good". She did make my drink and let me tell you she did not disappoint! She did make a bit extra and offered to pour the remaining juice in a different cup which I thought was very nice of her. This is a mellow, laid back juice bar where once can simply study or simply people watch like I did. I ended up sitting here solo for about 30 - 40 minutes people watching lol! I thought the restroom sign was very unique and had to take a picture of it! Definitely recommend to those in the area or simply visiting.
