    We love The Burrow!! Been to this location multiple times. Parking is fairly easy. I wanted to write a review just to say you need to check out their seasonal menu!!! My partner's favorite is Mango Sago, so I asked if they have something similar to that, and the guy recommended Mango Fields, which is amazing and even better than Mango Sago. I usually get Lychee Oolong, which is also amazing. Also sign up for the Boba Guys rewards program to get cool rewards like a free topping!

    Took out all the ice, this was what was left

    I placed an order online for pickup and ordered the horchata with boba. I took a sip of my drink when I was already in my car and drove off realizing how watered down my drink was. It had absolutely no flavor, basically like water and a hint of cinnamon. When I got home which was not that far, I took out all the ice and saw that I was left with only half a cup of liquid and some boba. You're telling me I ordered half a cup of ice?! There was also no less ice or no ice option. After taking out all the ice i took a few more sips. Boba was rock hard I had to spit it out and a lot of them were in clusters. Horchata was still watery. Taking out all the ice didn't help. I used to come here often and order the same drink but never had this issue. there are so many other places down in SSF, Burlingame and millbrae for better quality drinks and boba

    Black Sugar Hojicha Latte
    angela n.

    My order took WAY less than a minutes to be ready!! I got the brown sugar hojicha, and it was super good! It's a pretty small spot, but the staff are friendly and the service is sosososo fast!

    Wish we had these in San Diego:(
    Shelly M.

    The nicest people work here, especially the gentleman with the best service, the most positive attitude and the kindest heart in the business! Bonus...I only come in once a year (because sadly, I don't live here anymore), but that doesn't stop this guy from remembering my order down to the detail! He is definitely an asset to the company! Lol...did I mention that they have the best drinks and I drove up from San Diego and headed straight here first, to make sure I got my fix before they closed!

    Sapin sapin and strawberry matcha (left to right)

    I did realize this was a boba guys. It was a nice cause it's in a convenient location! Boba guys is always a good move! The strawberry matcha is a classic. Great matcha and great fresh strawberries. I tried their seasonal drink, the sapin sapin. It was pretty good. The jack fruit was a little too over powering. Definitely not a chuggable drink. Regardless, boba is based on preferences. The Burrow is a great place for boba!

    Strictly for customer service today or complete lack of it... Came with my team (17 people) after lunch for more treats and about half of us ended up ordering drinks. One person on my team never heard her name called and when she went to the counter to ask, they claimed that they had called her name "at least twice" and with no reply, they dumped it. What?! There is no way that 16 other people did not hear her name. But even if we did, why would you toss the drink so soon? Yeah, sure, quality of the drink is a reason but I don't actually think their cited reason is valid or true this time. The reason why I feel so strongly about this is that multiple teammates placed and received his/her order after this teammate. If they had saw an additional drink waiting on the counter, I'm quite certain they would have also pointed it out. By far, the most egregious thing was that Burrow REFUSED to remake the drink or refund the drink. My teammate was SOL and Burrow seemed perfectly content with this resolution. Remarkable! At no point was she rude or making a scene and yet she was essentially being told this whole situation was her fault. She was genuinely sad and was about to just walk away. We ended up buying the drink for her again but yes, that also means this drink was about $16 at the end of the day. Ridiculous.

    Ube latte with aloe jelly
    Wincy Y.

    The Burrow is basically one of many Boba Guys locations they have. I ordered online for pickup, and got the ube latte with aloe jelly. The ube latte was very light, with unique hints of cinnamon and coconut. The aloe jelly was a good pairing, adding a slight crunch to the drink. I do wish that they would let you adjust the ice and sugar levels for this drink, just like with other drinks they have. Although the price is a bit high, I would recommend a try!

    OG boba guys!
    Sam W.

    FINALLY was able to try the famous OG Boba Guys (The Burrow) which doesn't help that it's about 7 mins away from our hotel :) Tried one of their top 5 favorites: Strawberry Matcha Latte with boba. I loved how it wasn't super sweet and the matcha added was just right. The strawberry puree that was added, was the right amount of sweet balance to go along with the almond milk based drink. Friendly window service, and pretty quick turn around, about less than 5 mins at most. Parking: street parking, but fairly easy to find. Payments: they take G Pay/Apple Pay, cards, etc... I'll definitely will be back to try another drink before I leave back to so. cal. Thanks for the amazing boba!

    black sesame latte
    Elena W.

    First impressions aren't always accurate. When I first tried Boba Guys in 2018, I didn't think their drinks were all that special. At the time I was judging solely on their black milk tea. Their boba pearls were just okay and their grass jelly was a laughable attempt. I couldn't understand what the hype was about. Fast forward to recent months and I grew curious about the brand again. Whoever is their marketing or design person deserves a raise because I saw their special cups for sakura season with the cute little cherry blossoms and it was enough to make me decide to give them a second chance. My experience this time around was MUCH different than three years ago. A couple key differences is that their only topping is boba now (no grass jelly) and that they don't allow for ice/sugar adjustments. I was a little apprehensive about the latter because I'm the type of person to get no ice and 25% sugar in my boba drinks. But to my surprise, the drinks aren't overly sweet! I really enjoyed their strawberry matcha latte and strawberry tea fresca! I got the black sesame latte for my mom who really enjoyed it. I did taste it as well, but it's not my cup of tea (pun intended). Their boba pearls are honestly like just alright like 8/10. But their drinks! Delicious and good quality!!! Happy to share that Boba Guys is one of my favorite boba places now.

    Brown Sugar Hojicha Latte
    Rani Z.

    Time & Date: 1pm Thursday, 4/22/21 Order by: Walk in Payment: Apple Pay Items Ordered: Brown Sugar Hojicha Latte ($6.90) I ordered the 24 oz brown sugar hojicha latte with whole milk + boba and this is probably the best drink I've ever had from Boba Guys. The hojicha taste is very in your face -- super toasty & nutty with some grainy texture. I'm a matcha person but I think this drink just put me on hojicha lol! You can't customize sugar level for this drink, but the level was okay for me (I'm someone who usually orders 50% sugar)! I notice that the pearls were smaller than usual today, and more tough. It was pretty hard actually, not like the super soft pearls you usually get. Perhaps the pearls weren't cooked long enough today... but the drink compensated for that! Will be back! 10/10~

    Jack R.

    How did I not know about this place? It's certainly closer than Burlingame and easier to find parking than their SF Boba Guys location so bravo for that! Came here for two drinks...my go to favorite Horchata and my second favorite Strawberry Matcha Latte. Both tasted great and had their signature flavor and quality. Online ordering made this quick and efficient, everyone wore masks and I was in and out of there like Superman!

    Can someone tell me If they are open on Sunday? I thought i saw somewhere that they are.

    They are closed on Sunday's, but are open on Saturday's! (:

    The burrow? They broke away from Boba Guys?

    Incorrect! The burrow was Boba Guys first initial store they ever opened up before branching out into what is now known as "Boba Guys". This is from what I've been told.

    Why does it called Burrow and not boba guy?

    What are you taking about? Shhhh!! 🤫 They aren't boba guys! 😉 I think it's because it is their distribution location, and not a full store carrying all menu items. The burrow appears to be where their catering orders originate from as well. I… Read more

    Did the hours change? Are they open past 4pm now?

    Yes! They are open until 6:00 now.

    Are they open today (Memorial Day)?

Coffee, tea, smoothies, Banh Mi sandwiches, rice plates, etc. It's a tiny store for order pickups. Menu is decent. All credit cards are accepted here. There's only one self service kiosk inside. No tables or chairs, but you can place your order on the bar countertop by the window. Staffs don't interact much with customers, but are busy preparing the beverages and foods. Wait time to get the order can be anywhere from 12-20 minutes sometimes. Note, prices are similar to what you can expect in the South Bay/San Jose area. We had the Coconut Water with Matcha Cloud $6.50 & the Biscoff Jasmine Milk Tea Cheese Mousse $6.50. Both tasted decent and not too heavy even at 50% sweetness with 50% ice. Cup size is good. It's a popular spot for locals in the area and public street metered parking is in front. There's only one huge window to look outside. Not bad at all.

But through the years, I would see a crowd of people every time I'd pass by. I often wondered what the hype was and what these people were ordering?! My daughter was drinking a Coco3 drink the other day and it wasn't your typical boba drink, so I asked what it was. She told me it was a Coco Crave ~ one of her favorite drinks! So last night after dinner, I decided to check out this fav drink of hers! The shop is clean, well kept, and actually pretty new since they moved into another unit in the same outdoor mall/plaza. In front, there are 2 kiosks to take your order. Pretty convenient since the staff are usually in the back making drinks. *** M Y P I C K *** COCO CRAVE ~ (coconut juice, coco cube, jade jelly, coconut meat, jelly boba, basil seed) at 25% sweetness level. This drink reminded me of the Vietnamese 3 color dessert drink! Yummy and perfectly sweetened at 25%. I realized after ordering, I could get crushed ice. For sure there will be a next time! 5/5 There are tables for those who would like to relax and have a seat while drinking their drinks. I sat down for about 5 minutes and my order was ready! Quick service! Looking over the menu, you can customize your drink and make all kinds of concoctions! Or you can pick a specialty drink with already set items. Either way, you can't go wrong! Haha I guess I've been missing out all these years. Can't wait to go back and try another drink at Coco3!
