I am not the Bubble Tea fan but my daughter is, hence why we stopped in. She's on a quest to find the best ones in MI and unfortunately this one wasn't it. She gave it a "shrug shoulder" when I asked her what she thought. That was enough to tell me we don't have to come back to this one. She rated it mid, definitely not one of the best she's ever had. I got the Chai but forgot to ask for some type of sweetener. I was expecting it to have the punch I'm used to with a good chai but it was rather mild. I did however love the packaging... read more

I'm very new to boba but boy do I want to now, try the entire menu. The coffee bobas and the flan boba is so freakin yummy I was shocked! And I like the baby boba tapioca pearls! The service was fun to me, just even the whole ordering process has its own special vibe to it! Inside the cafe was matching everything with my experience 100% will come back here. read more

Visiting Michigan and found the nearest boba spot. I've been to Tiger Sugar's in other locations and have never had the experience I had at this location. Both individuals working behind the counter seemed extremely confused and didn't know the menu. Not only confused with my questions, but with questions others were asking as well. I ordered a red bean matcha and the only thing with some flavor in the drink were the red beans. There was absolutely no matcha flavor at all. Simply tasted like the almond milk they used. Not sure I'll visit this location again. read more

Decent bubble tea store. Tired their Thai tea, strawberry mochi and mango drink. Mango is the best out of the three with no sugar added. Thai tea a little too sweet for me, unable to decrease sugar level since it's premade. Strawberry mochi is unique and overall good tasting for my son. The mochi inside tasted excellent. They were also able to decrease the sweetness level to accommodate for kids. Service is friendly. Interior is nice and clean. Good parking. Would return to try other drinks. read more

A stellar boba spot!! I think I've tried half of the menu at this point and been impressed my everything! I do love coffee so I tend to get #4 with regular ice and less sugar - so awesome that you can fully customize!! + the mini boba pearls are really fun and I haven't seen them at most other shops. Ordering is easy at the kiosks, and the staff could not be nicer. Everyone is very patient with menu questions and explaining additional info about each drink. This is a must stop if you are shopping or eating in the area for a quick treat. :) read more

I was first introduced to Tiger Sugar when I lived in NYC in 2020 (during COVID). When I seen that they opened a location in Madison Heights, I became ecstatic and needed to check it out. When I first walked in, the server greeted me and was beyond sweet asking if I need any assistance and I shared I was well aware the items. I ended up getting two of my favorite drinks, Black Sugar Boba with pudding (#5) and Brown Sugar Boba with Taro + Taro Pudding (#7). The boba was chewy and well prepared and the pudding was divined. Overall, I recommend this place to all! There is seating, so you can chill on a date, while studying, reading, or with friends. The drinks were good and the serve was quick and delightful. read more

My friend and I went to Tiger Sugar as part of a Yelp event. There are so many boba places at this point it is very hard to choose, so it was nice have a good reason to try this specific place. They are primarily a drink place, it looks like they have a couple snacks, but it is focused on boba drink options. My friend is allergic to dairy, and the staff was able to show her plenty of options, or changes, that she could have. I think their boba pearls were particularly good, I've had ones that are not. My friend wondered if they made them as they seemed fresh. They were the perfect level of chewy. I tried the pudding in mine as I'd never had it before. It was not my preference, I did not like the texture in the drink. I do not hold that against Tiger Sugar, others may really like it. They have a small seating area where we had our drinks. They either did not have a restroom or it was closed, there was a hall marked off where they may have one. This was a minor annoyance, if you are having a drink and they have seating restrooms are needed. read more

This cute spot lured me in again. It's been a while since my inaugural visit. I went for teas this time. I'm finding I'm just not a fan of boba pearls. The drinks are fabulous with that. Service was very fast and they are super friendly! Please stop in and try them out read more

My partner and I both ordered the taro/boba/taro pudding drink, which was very good! Taro is always a favorite but this was my first time trying the actual taro root in the drink, which I was intrigued by. It helps to cut the sweetness of the drink and since I don't like things tooooo sweet, it was great for me! Their boba pearls were delish as well. The staff were super friendly and they had our drinks ready FAST! Probably less than 90 seconds. The inside of the store is decorated very cute as well - appreciate the Santa hat on the tiger for the season :) There is cute seating to hang out and enjoy drinks as well! Thanks, Tiger Sugar! Will be back! read more

1st time here. I enjoyed the F5 passion fruit 3Q tea w/ oolong! I had to sub crystal since they were out of boba & pearl. The staff was really polite & helpful. The young lady really knew her stuff! My partner didn't care for his #6 black sugar boba + mochii. He said it was the consistency... The place was clean and was playing Christmas music. read more

Excellent Tiger Sugar location that might be the first in the Detroit area (hence the signage proclaiming "Tiger Sugar Detroit"). Impressive selection of milk tea beverages, from iced green tea lattes with foam, to Thai iced tea varieties, to brown sugar drinks and more. Great service although you can primarily order on a kiosk. They also have their own egg rolls (packaged), popcorn and other sweets you can buy on the side. Check it out in Madison Heights! read more

This place is so good! I loved the classic milk tea, and the mini boba pearls were so fun. The pudding was flavorful. We also tried the passion fruit green tea which was good, but the star of the show was the classic milk tea boba! Staff were super nice offering to help and answer any questions. We ordered on the large iPad so we could see pictures of everything as we decided what to get. Prices were so good. Where else can you get a 5.99 boba tea?? I definitely will be back soon! read more

Tiger Sugar is a name whose brand is reputable and the drinks are of high quality. The red bean is a personal favorite! Service was straight forward because we knew what we want and ordered quickly. The ambiance is soothing - I appreciated that there wasn't loud background music - but I didn't find the chairs the most comfortable when sitting. I'm glad Tiger Sugar has more Michigan locations! read more

I drive by a few weeks ago and said I had to go! So imagine my excitement when Yelp had an event. Cute boba spot with a couch and leonine area. They had very fast service and had several options I'll be back to try. If you don't know what you want, I recommend the #1 read more

Great ambience and friendly, quick service. This was my first time here and the employee who helped me was very welcoming and explained there were different milk alternative options: whole, 2% milk, lactose free or oat milk. I ordered #4 (Tiger Meet Coffee) and subbed oat milk for dairy with less sugar and ice. I was surprised how dark the drink looked, and it didn't have the Instagram worthy "tiger stripes" the franchise is famous for. I took a picture immediately after it was made, before shaking it up. You can clearly see it contained very little milk. I enjoyed the texture and chewiness of the boba but it lacked the creaminess of the milk. The espresso was too strong for my liking and not balanced with 1/2 espresso and 1/2 milk like a traditional latte. Next time I'll order a fruit tea or ask for more milk. The mango drink or black tea with lychee popping boba sounds delicious! I would love to come back and try those. It would be a fun place to meet up with friends over my regular coffee spot hang out. read more

I was in the area and swung by to get the #1 brown sugar milk with boba and pearls. I had the lactose free milk, and since it was a hot day I didn't make any adjustments to the ice. It was simply refreshing! The larger and smaller tapioca were the perfect, soft texture. The brown sugar flavor was still strong, but the sweetness was perfect, and probably tempered by the milk. As I walked in, I saw they had a new offering: jumbo boba. I asked what it was and apparently it's spheres of coffee jelly that are meant to break up as you sip on the drink, or else they won't fit through the straw otherwise. Intriguing, I might get this next time! read more

A nice little spot, the boba was good, the service fast and it had some hang out spots. We got a coffee boba and a malted boba - both were good but be sure to shake really well!

When they say sugar they mean it! I've driven past Tiger Sugar several times and finally decided to stop in. They're actually several Milk Tea/Boba spots nearby in Madison Heights. Parking is pretty easy here as it's location in a strip mall so you'll have no problem finding a spot. When you enter you'll notice the decor looks very nice and clean. They're small tables inside, however I understand many if not all customers will just take their drinks to go. I ended up ordering Black Sugar Boba+ Pearl Milk for around $6.00 and it was soooo tasty! Now it's super sweet in my opinion so if you are not looking for a sweet drink I'd stay away or try something else. Of course with boba you want to shake your drink to mix everything around. The staff seem nice and took had my order out very quickly (granted, I was the only one in the store) so they made my drink in like 40 seconds it seemed. I drank it so far In my car that I thought about going back in and getting another one, but I will save that for another visit. I'd highly recommend if you're craving something sweet to visit! read more

Thank you Yelp for inviting me to check out this boboa tea spot!! My daughter loves boboa tea so we had to see what they were all about. Upon arriving I was greeted promptly and the gentleman who worked there was able to answer all my questions, he was super helpful. So thanks to him I got my daughter the strawberry mochi for her which was perfect, it was sweet, fruity, and full of fresh strawberries. She loved it! I had a taro milk tea, which was pretty decent as well. It was about 8 for a drink but a fairly nice size. They have a nice variety of flavors and easy parking to their location. Overall great experience!! Thank you Yelp. read more

I've been to this Tiger Sugar 10+ times at this point and every single time the drink tastes exactly how I expected and the texture of the boba, sago, etc is remarkably consistent. This time I got the Black Sugar Chocolate Chip Milk with Less Sugar and Less Ice. It had the signature Tiger Sugar milky brown sugar taste, still on the slightly sweeter side for my preferences. The boba texture was exactly the same as every single time before. The chocolate chips were not really chocolate chips - I think they were crumbled up Oreos or some kind of other chocolate biscuit. I haven't had anything bad from this location yet. If there was one complaint I could give is that it's more expensive for the size vs. other boba places. $8+ for a large drink vs. other places nearby that are closer to $6. read more

TIGER SUGAR - Bubble Tea Near Me - Madison Heights, Michigan

Tiger Sugar may have my favorite brown sugar boba that I've had so far. The brown sugar syrup is so thick and has a depth of flavor you don't always get from brown sugar. A good brown sugar has that deep molasses, caramel-ish flavor and this one nails it. I went for the brown sugar pudding boba and it had a nice serving of a rich, eggy pudding on top of the beverage that breaks up nicely and adds some extra interest to the drink besides the tapioca pearls. My mom had the regular brown sugar boba and she also proclaimed it her favorite of all the bobas she's tried (and we try a lot together, it's our new mother/daughter activity!). I also got a couple bags of their black sugar popcorn and it was SOOO good. It's essentially caramel corn but made with their black sugar (aka Taiwanese brown sugar) and it's flavorful without being overly sweet. A drink here is definitely a splurge treat but I wish I could have it every day! Loved the whole experience. I wish there was a Tiger Sugar a little closer to me but I know any time I'm in the Madison Heights area I'll be stopping in! read more

Been wanting to try this place since I knew it was in LA. Hadn't tried it when I was there though! It opened here pretty recently, so we went to check it out. They specialize in different kinds of brown sugar milk tea. But I decided to stick with a tea drink without the milk. I chose the golden oolong tea drink with boba. It was very delicious! And at 50% sweetness, maybe just a bit too sweet but not bad! My sisters got the black sugar milk tea with mousse and the black sugar coffee latte with mousse. They didn't get to choose their sweetness, but the drinks weren't all that sweet! Definitely impressed!! The young woman at the register said that her favorite from the tea options was the black sugar black tea latte. I'd probably try that next time. Staff was nice! They offered to give us two straws each since the straws were paper. Didn't need it as I drank my bubble tea quickly! There's also a cute tiger toy sitting in the shop. Hehe! read more

Sparkling clean and chic place with super friendly and helpful employees. Came in and ordered a lychee black tea with crystal boba. Highly recommend Crystal boba, it's clear and very chewy. Super yummy. Husband got a black sugar coffee latte with creme mousse. His drink was super delicious and very smooth. I'd come back again! Accessible place with ample parking next to ramen. My only desire is that I wish i could adjust the sugar level. My lychee black tea was a tad too sweet. I'm not sure if I could adjust the sweetness or not and was not asked when I ordered. Other than that very yummy! read more

I can finally review Tiger Sugar! I have been here three times now - the first time was an influencer invite (i.e., complimentary drink) and the second time was for the Yelp Elite event (YEE). My boyfriend and I went here a week or so ago as paying customers. The first and third times I went here I got drink #4 or #5, I believe - it's a regular milk tea but with chocolate malt. What I love about Tiger Sugar is they offer soy milk or lactose-free milk options; the first time I got the drink, I got it with lactose-free milk, which was okay but did leave an aftertaste. Last time I got it with soy milk. Last time the drink was still delicious but even after shaking it the recommended 15 times, the malt was still kind of clumpy, for some reason. The second time I went here I got a vanilla black tea drink which was also fantastic. The staff here is also very caring - they ask you if you need the milk to be lactose-free, and ask if you have been in before, so they can tell you about the "15 shakes" method (ideally you shake your drink 15 times before drinking it). I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu ... it's only about a 10-minute drive from my house, too. The only thing that stops me from going like every day or week is that drinks are about $6 each - last time it was $14 for two drinks and tip. read more

My husband and I stopped in to order a drink. We chose the Black Sugar Mochi Bobo with cream mousse (#6). The menu and signs suggest shaking it 15 times to get the best flavor. The drink tasted only like milk to both of us. It was more bland than I thought it would be. However, I do love sugary drinks and I was expecting it to be more sweet. Perhaps it is because I chose this particular one. It has a natural home made taste to it. The cream mousse did not really have a taste to it, it did add texture to it though. The mochi was really good with it. The mochi was sweeter than the entire drink. If I were to come again, I would like to try a different drink. Maybe one that is more sweeter. Overall, the staff were super nice. I liked the aesthetic of the store and the look of the drinks. We will ask for the sweetest one they have next time! read more

We werent familiar with this chain but saw a new location in the area so we tried it. It is basically all Tea, Black Sugar tea thats popular. So not the fruity options you might look for. Although, I tried the Special Strawberry drink they had that was amazing. the drink didnt have a description saying it came with small tapioca, but it did. Im normally a jelly fan, but I fell in love with the small tapioca. Super cool that you got to pick small or big on the other drinks. read more

Fun name. Black and gold theme. Ordered a black sugar boba + Pearl, chocolate malt milk (soy milk) with cream mousse. Ugh. I was regretting and wishing I had gotten a cheese mousse chocolate drink after one sip. It was not good and left a bad aftertaste as well. I shook the drink 30 times to get some chocolate mixed into the drink. It tastes like oat milk only, no hint of chocolate at all. I asked if they could add more chocolate. They said no. All ingredients are standardized to make it taste the best. I said I don't like the flavor of the drink at all. The guy said that's because I chose the oat milk. I said I like oat milk, but I want to taste the chocolate some. He apologized that adding more chocolate is not possible. They said they could make me any other drink for free. I said I wanted chocolate. They asked if I wanted a refund and I said yes. The drinks are filled up top to bottom with tons of ice, mostly milk and milk and a bit of boba and pearls and maybe a few drops of chocolate for color. It felt like a lot of smoke and mirrors show here. I asked for water to clean my mouth out of the drink residue from the sip. I couldn't get rid of the taste. Tiger sugar was definitely not for me. They need to modify their rigid model some. It should be about making your customers happy, even if it means adding a dollop more or chocolate into a drink, no? read more

Okay. Tiger Sugar was the hype a few years back on both coasts and people would rave about how delicious the boba was. I've heard about how sweet and tasty brown sugar boba is and have always been curious about why it's so good. As always, Michigan is pretty late to the game. But it's better late than never, am I right?? Today was the day for me to finally try it. I got the #4 (best seller, apparently) which is the "Black Sugar Boba + Pearl Coffee Latte with Cream Mousse". Sadly, I could not adjust the sugar level for this drink, so I had to prepare myself for the amount of sugar I was about to inhale. I'm a 0% or 30% sugar kind of person, and I expected the sweetness to punch me square in the face. Boba came out like the "tiger stripes" as promised, and I gave it about 15 shakes or so to mix everything up well. Fortunately, it was not like that at all. I would say the sweetness is about 50-75% at a generic boba shop. It was a too sweet for me, but then again, I have low tolerance. I liked the brown sugar sweetness and the chewiness of the boba (which is also sweetened). Also, great coffee taste! It really came through nicely. I can see why people went nuts over tiger sugar boba but can't say I'm a huge fan myself. I could barely taste the tea in my drink (mainly just sweet milk with some coffee) and didn't like that the pearls were different sizes, which threw me off a bit. Overall, I'm glad I finally got to try tiger sugar boba and would recommend people to give it a shot if they haven't had it before! read more
