    Brown T5 black sugar boba tea latte with cream mousseXL
    Susie R.

    Reminds me of NYC. I'm so happy this is here in the Midwest. I love this place so much compared to other boba places. I really love their selection of drinks. The flavor is def there unlike other places. The brown sugar drink is soooo good. The service is always so nice and place is pretty quiet. The only downside for me would be the location. So difficult to find a parking. I hope they can open more locations sometime in the future!! :)

    First time to Tiger Sugar. It was strange that they would have a self ordering stand and I was a little confused at first about ordering at the counter since the self ordering was at the front of the line. We did the self ordering. There's not much modification for the drink. The taro drink I had seemed like there's chunks of taro but after a few sips it just taste like powder. The mango drink was a little tart and not very sweet. I like the little chunks of mango. The paper straws are a little hard to drink from for little kids because they suck on the straw and then it doesn't keep its shape to drink through anymore.

    Brown sugar boba

    Stopped at Tiger Sugar on a weekday afternoon. Fortunately got there right before a big rush of people. It was a little tough to understand the differences in the drinks and options from the signs, but the staff answered our questions. Ordered the original and it was only OK. Sweet and creamy, but it lacked any flavor depth - pretty much just tasted like milky brown sugar. I was hoping it would taste like what I tried in Taipei, but it was definitely missing something. And, there was an odd combination of larger boba and smaller pearls, which didn't go that well together. Not sure if I'll go back, but if so, I will be sure to ask for the boba only.

    YES!! Honestly, I never understood why this place got so much recognition and hype when I've had other comparable brands! Heck, I even stood in line for 2 hours once for a different shop. This place really does a great job with their brown sugar boba! When I think of brown sugar milk all I can think of is the amount of sugar and sweetness that I am about to consume, but Tiger Sugar, while still sweet, I felt like they aren't reminding me to schedule a dentist appointment. I really enjoyed the mini boba mixed within the regular boba, there seems to be some sort of boba variation with every sip. They use horizon whole milk as their standard (my favorite milk), but you can definitely get a dairy alternative! If you aren't someone that likes milk products, they do have tea drinks as well! With tax they come to be about $6 a cup, which is pricey for the size, but it is worth every sip (even though I completely smashed this in like 5 minutes). I would definitely come back to try their other brown sugar drinks!

    Best boba in town. They have good boba; trust me coming from somebody who calls LA my second home. I hope they can stay open (pretty empty for Saturday afternoon hours) although it is summertime and being at UofM area, I would think they have better traffic during school time.

    This boba place is a treat! It's relatively new and my sister turned me on to it. It was delicious and the perfect cool drink for a warm afternoon! We got the No. 1 and it was pretty sweet, but otherwise the flavor of the drink and texture of the boba were both phenomenal! They didn't appear to have seating, but this was a great stop since we were in Dinkytown and wanted something cool to sip on as we walked around.

    Tiger mango sago

    The flavors here seem really limiting but if you like coffee flavored and cream boba teas then this is a cool spot to check out. We tried the mango sago and black sugar boba w tiger jelly and cream mousse. I didn't find the mango sweet enough, but could be nice if you like your mango not as ripe and less sweet. You also get a larger drink going with mango. The black sugar one was definitely up my alley, so I enjoyed that. I think the tiger jelly's were too hard tho esp mixed with the soft pearls. Threw the textures off for me. Overall I would go back and try something else. Price is comparable to about anywhere else in the area. The one with pudding mixed in seems intriguing.

    I've been wanting to try this place for so long but don't have one where I live. When I heard Minneapolis has one, I knew I had to try it. It definitely did not disappoint and was one of the best boba drinks I've ever had. I wish I could have gone back and got more! Highly highly recommend if you love boba.

    I'm normally not a brown sugar of person. Honestly? I've been pretty let down by it. I like the nuttiness and caramel taste of it, but often times, I feel like I'm one drink away from developing some Type II diabetes based on how sweet it is. Or, it doesn't even taste any different from regular boba that I'm confused as to whether I even ordered brown sugar boba. No more. Not with Tiger Sugar here. Not gonna lie, I did struggle a little deciphering the menu. Basically, it boils down to this. If you're going for brown sugar boba, there are an assortment of different options, that have slightly different variations - do you want pearls? Coffee? Pudding? Jelly? Chocolate? Pick whatever you like. There are some options that don't have brown sugar boba, but if you're coming here in the first place, why? Ordered just the classic brown sugar boba with creme mousse and pearls, and let me tell you - the hype lived up. The boba are actually in different sizes, which was kind of a textural delight, and the taste itself? I could actually taste brown sugar without it being overwhelmingly sweet. I would 100% go again.

    Do you like sugar? Do you like dessert of any kind? Then make sure to visit Tiger Sugar!!! While the interior won't wow you, the drinks will! The flavors packs a punch that you'll beyond enjoy. You won't regret a visit here.

    This is a global chain but so glad to have this option in MN! Top two best bubble tea places in the area. I usually have gotten the classic brown sugar drink but opted for a black tea with cheese foam cap and no regrets! Utterly delicious and simple bliss- highly recommend! If you are looking for authentic Taiwanese/Asian flavors instead of watered down and overly sugary "gentrified" bubble tea - this is the place for you!

    Matcha boba missing the cream mousse
    Sophie Y.

    Surprised to see Tiger Sugar in Minneapolis and it was a hot day. I first had Tiger Sugar in Taichung, Taiwan in 2018 and then in Hong Kong in 2019. Also had it in Houston, TX in 2021 and now in MN. Every Tiger Sugar should share the same formula and there is no adjustment to ice and sugar levels. Today, I had the matcha milk tea XL for $8.29. I usually get the #1 the signature brown sugar boba milk with cream mousse. The matcha isn't as creamy as #1 and the sweetness is definitely toned down. Bobas and pearls are sweet and chewy but the cream mousse was missing. While I'm an eco conscious individual, I'd hope they change the paper straw vendor because the straw was too short for an XL cup to stir to begin with. I had the drink for 5 minutes and the top of the straw got really soft on the top where it was hard to suck up the bobas. Poor material and design, IMO. Glad to see a familiar brand in MN.

    The best bobba tea franchise yet to arrive in Twin City . Bravo ! It's about time , the real Taiwanese brand Bobba Tea Franchise comes to the city. Frankly it's the best so far. The tapioca Pearl is the best quality. The drinks are very very good , does not taste like some chemicals in it .

    Best bubble tea shop in Dinkytown. Not too sweet, not too creamy, but also not lacking in either. Exactly what I was craving.

    First, I love the pastries you can buy to-go. This review though is for their cooking class. Be…read moreaware that you will be seated with a group of 6 and you'll have to work with them to decide who does what tasks, since not everyone will get to try making everything. I attended solo but luckily really liked the group I was assigned to. We wanted everyone to work on things they enjoy and allowed everyone to try some parts of the important tasks (making pasta and pastry dough). Your enjoyment might really depend on what your group is like. You can buy wine and beer to drink while you take the class, and those were reasonably priced I thought! $9 for a glass of wine and I think $8 for beer. The class was chaotic since we were making three courses and things needed to be done at different times, but the chaos felt like how it really is in a kitchen making multi course menus, so that didn't bother me! The assistants were great and helped us stay on track and helped if we were struggling with anything. I can't say I learned much from the class (which is why I only gave 4 stars), but I sure had a lot of fun!

    Living in the North Loop, Cooks Bellecour was hands-down our most visited spot--and for good…read morereason! This place is a slice of French heaven right in Minneapolis. Their pastries? Pure magic. The chocolate almond croissant is next level--flaky, buttery, and packed with rich, decadent flavor. And don't even get me started on the breakfast sandwiches--they're gourmet-level masterpieces. Every bite is perfection. The vibe & service here is warm and inviting, with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries filling the air. Whether you're grabbing a coffee, treating yourself to a pastry, or diving into one of their soups or salads, this place nails it every time. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. Cooks Bellecour is an absolute gem!
