Straw & Bubbles Tea Bar is for sure my daughter's go to when she has a taste for boba/bubble tea or ramen. She has been there with friends as well as myself multiple times. (I wish they had a loyalty program or punch card of sorts for her because of her affinity to the store!) Last night, she had a taste for bubble tea so we took her after dinner and we had some pleasant surprises in our drink choices! My boyfriend got the Cookies and Cream milkshake with oat milk ('cause dairy) and it was thick, delicious, and had a strong ratio of milk to cookie in it. Last time my parents took my daughter, I tried a Coconut Purple Berry tea and added tapioca. It is tea, coconut milk, and like, chunks of guava--delicious. I can tell you my daughter's go to is a Taro Milkshake which is milk and taro blended--very delicious! The presentation is appealing--it looks like white clouds in a purple sky. Other drinks I have tried include their galaxy lemon tea, a sort of ocean lemonade (?), etc. My daughter also lives for their croffles--I know she has had matcha, tiramisu, plain, etc. Last night's choice was matcha and there was not a crumb left in the box. Ordering is easy on the kiosk, and the staff is quiet, but friendly. I have been there with different sized groups at different times of day, and the food, drinks, and service are always consistent. Sometimes it's packed, sometimes it's not. Driving back home, I wanted to yell at all the youths in that green siren logoed coffee shop to drink something better across the parking lot, but I did not. I hope Straw & Bubbles continues to find Mount Prospect to be a good home! read more

Straw and Bubbles is a nice gem in Downtown MP. The Taro Milk tea here was really good, and they have a nice cozy sitting area where you can even make your own ramen! They have ALOT to choose from with bowls on the spot so you can enjoy there. You order through the Kiosk so it makes it easy to look at all the sweats and drinks they have. We also got a plain croffle that went perfect with our drinks but will be back to try other treats they have! read more

We are frequently in the area and so stop in often. The lady running the shop is so nice. I usually order the strawberry matcha or the coconut purple berry, depending on whether I want something milky or fruity. The croffles on offer are also tasty. I'm partial to the plain croffles - buttery and lightly sweet. On our most recent visit, we noticed a new addition to the menu (and the wall) - an assortment of instant ramen noodles. There is also a hot water station, so you can make what you buy on site. I recently noticed another storefront coming to Mount Prospect (by Algonquin and Busse) called Ramen Library, and I have a feeling this is how it might be there, too. So maybe a sneak peek in a way. Will instant ramen cafes be the next big craze? read more

We visited on a rainy afternoon and was met with a very sunny and welcoming interior! Yellow and white are the main colors and boy do they pop! We ordered at the kiosks which were modern and user friendly. A great variety of drink options and customizations. Two drinks and 2 donuts was $20 which is more then we usually like to spend on a coffee date, however the quality was fantastic. Drinks both had great presentation and flavor. Sometimes these drinks don't look as pictured but these were so visually pleasing! The strawberry donut was just OK to us. Ours was a little stale. The mango one though.....so fresh and tasty! The topping was light sweet and airy. The woman who was working there was polite and kind. We had an overall very enjoyable time! read more

Cute little place on Emerson Street in Mt. Prospect! Lots of drink options! Fruity,tea and COFFEE!!! So many options available and everything we tried was delicious! The croffles were AWESOME and DELICIOUS! Designed to be easily split in half and very affordable! The 4 of mine cost just over $12. They are SO good! I'd go back just for those! Only thing I didn't love was the seating. There's only a few tables and they're not exceptionally comfortable but it's still a nice little place to sit and chat for a bit! You can tell it's family run, which I love! They're very nice and pretty quick! I'll definitely be back! If you're looking for a fun treat definitely stop in and visit Straws and Bubbles! read more

ordered via the touch screen. loved my matcha latte! the perfect balance of milk and matcha. not overly sweet either. my husband got the dirty matcha with tapioca balls. the tapioca was delicious and the perfect texture. the tiramisu croffle was good too. i love the cream on top because it was light and not too sweet. definitely want to try the other flavors too. the total was $21 for the three items - pretty pricey compared to other bubble tea shops but it's good for whenever you want to splurge. read more

This place was overall good experience. The owners approached us right away to explain how the ramen works. I appreciate the time they took they made sure our questions are answered. The croffles was really the highlight of the night for me. This place comes with the experience you don't usually see in many places in America. read more

Uyuhaus Ice Cream & Cafe - Milk Thai Tea with tapioca and ramen - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mount Prospect, Illinois

Got this for delivery via Uber Eats for the first time. The matcha rose milk tea was really good but a bit overpriced at $7 for the amount (22 oz). Thai is the menu price not Uber Eats price that I'm referring to. The reason I ordered from here was that the Croffle sounded very intriguing. It's a crossover of a croissant and waffle but I like this so much bette Ethan either a croissant or waffle. It's not as dense and filling as a waffle and not as greasy and buttery as a croissant. It's very flaky, which is the best part of a croissant and fluffy and thick which is why I like the waffles and they can hold onto the flavor in the square pockets. I got 2 boxes of 3 croffle flavors including: the matcha cream, dark choco and cream, salted caramel and butter, strawberry cream, choco pretzel, and mango cream. My favorite was the mango cream because the fresh mango was a perfect balance of fresh and sweet followed by the dark choco cream. They are actually not that sugary as you'd imagine from looking at them. The cream is fluffy and delicious and on the sour/sweet side vs super sugary. The only thing I did not like was the cold brew. It's way too watered down and they have no options for milk. At $5 I expected it to taste better and be bigger. Overall, I'll be back for the croffles but will likely skip the drinks as I can get better for the price elsewhere. The croffles are very unique and worth every penny. I hope they come out with even more flavors to try! read more

My granddaughter found this place and suggested a mini spring break trip for the "make your own" ramen. It's a cute little restaurant with a huge drink menu and a wall of ramen packets. Since it was our first time, the owner was very helpful showing us how to order and how the ramen works. The ramen variety is unlike anything I've ever seen, and you can add things to it like kimchi, dumplings, cheese etc. It takes a few minutes to cook on a little machine they have and then you get a nice big hot bowl of delicious! I had a moderately spicy (two chili pepper on the label) chicken ramen with onions and dumplings added and the taro milk tea. Everything was great and it was a fun experience. read more

A new place in downtown Mount Prospect. They opened about one month ago. It is very modern, almost stark inside and there are kiosks to order. I am not a fan of the kiosk ordering, but it was easy. The place is not very welcoming, it does not have much personality. On a weeknight I was the only customer !. There needs to be better promotion and signage. I tried a brown sugar boba, and was able to customize the sugar and ice levels. My drink was prepared very quickly and was good. The server was nice. Nothing stood out from my experience . This is a nice addition to downtown Mt Prospect. read more

The boba itself is great, location is clean, and easy ordering. We'd stop in again while in the area.

Wonderful time at this locally owned boba/ramen/waffle bar!! Bingsu+ramen+waffles+ boba!

As someone who likes boba, they're boba is not good. Also all their lemonades just taste like lemon juice. Don't go, so expensive for such bad drinks read more

DELICIOUS! Nice folx running it. Ordered at a kiosk, wish there was a bit more info about what was in each as they have some creative looking drinks. Stuck with my go to (Taro). They did not skimp on the taro or boba. My son also got one and said it's the best he's had (and we get boba tea every where we go LOL). Looking forward to being in the area again so I can try the lavender milk tea. I tried the Thai iced tea and matcha and not a fan hence the 1 star ding. read more

Best boba tea I've ever had. Highly recommend to all. The milk teas or blended teas are really good and the strawberry dulce with tapioca boba is my absolute favorite. The fruit teas are too sweet for me, but my kids highly recommend them. 100 stars for this business! ETA: I just realized that I've reviewed this place TWICE. That's how much I love it, I guess. read more

Love Straw and Bubbles! Their drinks are so delicious and the waffles are too! You come in and order from the kiosks on the wall, then wait for your order to be made. It was nice to use the kiosk - we could see what drinks looked like since they had pictures for most items. The lady is super nice! We got a hot dog and let her know verbally that we didn't want ketchup or mustard (just plain) so it was easy to made the modification. :) We will be back! read more
