Service here is great, very friendly and helpful counter service. The space is really big, cute, and gives customers plenty of space to hang out with their drinks. The drinks are good and prepared quick. We ordered 11 drinks and it took 15 mins to prepare them. They were bagged on drink trays of 4, with an extra drink to sitting in the middle of the tray. The downside is that each individual drinks are not labeled, makes it very difficult to figure whose drinks they belong to with a big order. I suggest the shop to label their drinks. The price point is good. I would not consider coming here if placing a large drink order, unless everyone is ordering the same drink, I've level, sweetness, and toppings. The private parking lots is a bonus. read more

I love going here!! I've gone many times and never had a drink I didn't like. The dumplings are also so good, totally recommend. This is one of the only places that I actually enjoy their boba read more

VU Tea - Thai tea and brown sugar milk tea - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

I'm sorry to leave a one star review but the tea is really bad. This is, by far, the worst tea I have ever bought. The cup is a good size for $4.95 and the employees are nice enough but the positives stop there. Only the jasmine milk tea, thai milk tea, and thai green tea are made from actual tea leaves. Everything else is fake. What I ordered: Jasmine Milk Tea - It tastes like sweetened water with a faint tea essence. Awful. Thai Milk Tea - Same as above. After drinking a quarter of the cup, I couldn't taste the barely there tea flavor anymore. Unfortunately, you are better off making milk tea at home instead of coming here. Unless you like powdered fruit drinks/slushes, then order those instead. They probably are better than what I got. :( read more

VU Tea - Jasmine Milk Tea and Thai Milk Tea - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

Probably the only boba place in Corpus Christi. The boba was really good, but the brown sugar milk tea has absolutely no flavor. The interior is really dark and a bit dirty too. read more

i usually love this place, but i just went today and my taro milk tea just tasted like an iced glass of milk..

Drinks are good but customer service is bleh. Ordered at 7:08, now 7:31 only two drinks, the person who ordered before us already got his drink 10 mins after the order. Asked about it and the excuse was "oh bc there's two orders ahead". Drove 4 hours from Houston to wait for almost an hour for 2 drinks are ridiculous. I'm so unhappy tbh. I worked in the milk tea industry for 8 years and I know what is a rush looked like. Now is 7:35. Still no drink read more

This place was surprisingly very good!! the pricing is very affordable. the cashier was very nice and patient. Our drinks came out super fast and were very yummy! I got the Thai Green Tea, Brown sugar milk, strawberry smooth, thai milk tea, and avocado smoothie. Each drink was super good and the boba was perfect consistency!! my favorite was the Thai Green Tea, least favorite was the avocado smoothie. it had a good creamy texture but it could be more avocado-y flavor read more

OK honestly idk why I gave 5 stars last time LOL I came again today because I had a strong craving for boba and yeah for sure not coming back. Its too sweet even asking for less sugar and dont even get me started on the boba the texture was so bad. Please take your boba cravings to HANAYA POKE bc so far, the best boba I had here in Corpus was from them (speaking from someone who grew up with boba + asian lol) how does this boba place not have matcha. srsly confused what state of mind i was in during my last review LOL read more

We stopped here after lunch one day. It's close to a lot of the action in Corpus: mall, D&B, restaurants, etc. It's a large stand alone building, with tons of space, power outlets and a lime green interior. They have all the usual favorites, but they also have watermelon Agua Fresca, which I've never seen at a tea house. I ordered that and it was pretty good. Other people in my group also seemed to enjoy their order, which came out fairly quickly. read more

Left to right Jasmine tea lightly sweetened with tapioca boba and lychee jelly Jasmine milk tea with tapioca boba Thai tea with tapioca boba. Easy to find location. I appreciate being able to have the drink made less sweet . Pan fried dumplings and strawberry banana crepes were enjoyed before the picture was taken read more

VU Tea - three different drinks on a table - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

- lots of seating inside and fun vibes, they have board games and stuff to play too. good for a date or hanging with friends - drinks are okay, a little mid - do not recommend the crepes--they're the only food i've had from here but when i got them before they tasted like a dish rag .. idk if the plate and silverware had been cleaned well enough.. read more

A friend recommended this place and, since we'd never tried bubble tea before, we figured, "Why not?" The parking lot is a little tight, but the interior of the store is anything but. It's open, comfortable with a friendly, relaxing vibe. "Laredo" was very friendly and patient as he explained the differences in all the teas, smoothies and drinks they make. I chose the Thai Tea (marked as a "favorite") while my wife ordered the green tea Matcha smoothie with these black pearls in it. I'm not really a big tapioca pearls fan but I tasted hers and WOW! was it ever GOOD! The large black pearls were soft and had the very slightest hint of licorice. Very tasty drink! My Thai Tea was equally delicious, with a creamy texture and iced cold. We've both become big fans in a hurry. Come to find out, while we were waiting, they also do steamed and pan-fried dumplings!! Oh, I'm definitely coming in for lunch sometime to try that! So, yeah, great flavor, selection and service - hope these folks do real well here because we'll be coming back. read more

Drinks were delicious. Nice ambience. Friendly service. What more do you need?! My kids enjoyed the Oreo smoothie. It's only one size and too huge for my kiddo so it's definitely shareable. read more

The teas here are well.. Tastea. I just don't like what I ordered. I ordered one of the popular drinks which is the Royal milk tea. I guess I'm just not a big fan of the cream stuff on top. I think they call it crema but that ishhh is a dilemma! The place is a bit run down but it does have a lot of space. They have a lot of interesting things on the wall and they also have board games you can play. If you're from corpus you should know that there aren't many bubble tea places here. I only saw maybe 2 or 3 when I was yelping but the first one we went to wasn't open. If you also get a chance to go to the bathroom you feel like you're in a jail cell. Jk, but it's because it has a caged window lol. It's not a bad thing. I think this place just needs to renovate though. It will stand out especially when their primary color is light green. Great sign pointing to the building though! read more

Best place to study for all college kids!! There is a variety of drinks plus snacks to munch on. Basically the typical bubble tea place to get your bubble tea fix. My go to is always the taro bubble tea with tapioca balls. The place is very clean and the workers are really nice. I recently saw on fb they will be opening a second location inside H-E-B plus :) read more

I could honestly rave about this place forever, but I'll try to keep it short and sweet. I took a weekend beach trip with my girl for our anniversary and was craving a late night snack and was obviously extremely lucky and found this place! I thought to myself "I could go for a bubble tea, I suppose" OMYGOD, I was not aware that I would be gifted the best bubble tea I've ever tried in my life. I've only had bubble tea a handful of times and it's generally bc either my best friend or sister ( who are both bubble tea obsessed humans) have dragged me at some point or another. I've never really gone out of my way to have bubble tea, with the exception of this particular night when my extreme case of late night cravings led me to Tastea. I am lactose intolerant / Veganish so I could only get the Slushy version of a bubble "tea" and I went with the magonada , which is generally my safe bet and added strawberry sinkers for fun. I kid you not I finished the entire drink before I even got back to our Airbnb. I honestly regret not trying a crepe or edamame but I was trying to be good and not eat anything too heavy this late at night. I will definitely be back whenever I come back to our lovely Texas coast. Thanks a million, Tastea. You have a returning customer in me. read more

VU Tea - Mango slushy with strawberry sinkers = perfect combination - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

It was fairly vacant as me and two others went it however, the vibe was fairly warm and welcoming. Not to mention the staff was very friendly and patient with us as well! It's hard to come by good milk tea, and flavored at that, but this is the real deal! They have a large variety of drinks and extras (boba, popping, etc) as well as snacks! read more

Its a pretty quaint and cute place. A nice little calm teahouse if you will. I got the Royal Milk Tea, it tasted very similar to a Hokkaido milk tea crossed with some eggnog. It was still very good. Another person with me got the Strawberry slush, which was also very good. read more

The manager gave very poor service today as she closed the door on my face and walked away as I asked if they were open. For this I did not leave tip. I addressed it to her after my food and drink was made and she refused to take responsibility for any of her actions I told her I felt that was disrespectful for her just to let the door slam and walk away as I asked if they were open. she continued on to say that she was sorry that I felt that way and that she had to make stuff but they had just opened. I was looking forward to my drink now I am regretting going there as I came home and seems like my soy sauce to my steamed dumplings is as spicy as a hot Cheetos bag. my day has now been ruined along with my food. I will not be returning to this place. read more

This is part of our last trip we decided we wanted something to drink and also a little something to eat. Wait wasn't to long but definitely recommend this place so much! We will be back. read more

Come here all the time with my friends, nice place to chill and hangout.. during school time a group of us will go study there! I love the selection so many to chose and you can mix! My top 3 would have to be Taro smoothie, matcha smooth, and jasmine milk tea slush! I also take my friends here if they have never had it and they also come back sometimes without me !!! Staff is nice and the place is clean ! They even have a board game selection if you decided on playing some games !!! read more

VU Tea - Taro Smoothie - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

Wide selection to choose from, polite and timely staff, clean, calm and overall great tasting options!

Good boba, good desserts, good service! I've always gotten my boba to-go here but it's a nice little shop.

Would've given this place 5 stars but they changed their ice. I loved coming to this place because aside from sonic they had similar ice. But honestly I feel like I can just make my own drinks at home with my own ice, for free...please bring the good ice back. read more

This place is awesome! The tea tastes amazing and they have two different types of boba the regular and the popping kind. I love that because i prefer the popping kind and don't care for the regular. They also have a really nice sitting area and games - looks like a great place to hang out or go on a date! read more

ive been going to vu tea for some time now and I really enjoy it. the drinks and food are delicious but the workers do take some time to get orders out even when it isn't that busy. sometimes I just see the workers talking and laughing and not getting the orders out on time. There also isn't a lot of space for parking. but overall the bubble teas and Japanese snacks I get are so good and I really recommend! read more

Came to visit with my family this week for spring break. Upon arrival, the exterior is dirty with plastic cups and trash. The windows look like there are old, faded stickers that were meant to cover them. They are peeling and it almost makes the place look closed. We only had drinks and they were good, I'll give them that. The staff helping us were friendly, but I don't know if I would order any food there. read more

They have Oreo!! It's so delicious!! I only know of one other place that has Oreo and it's in San Antonio!

Wi-Fi did not work on my phone or laptop. Front desk unable to assist with this. Wouldn't recommend Vietnamese coffee here but have tried other flavors that were good. Only saving grace is how soft and chewy the tapioca pearls are. Unlikely to return. read more

Always delicious! I've been several times and always get the brown sugar milk tea with boba. Definitely recommend.

I ordered the blueberry smoothie with tapioca, and it taste nothing at all like blueberry. It tastes like vanilla. It is horrible and I just wasted $6. How can you mess up a blueberry smoothie and make it vanilla? Don't go here. I've gone here once before and gotten their blueberry tea which was bitter, and complete garbage. read more

Is a really good place to get boba or if you want to try somethimg new. The only down side is that it takes a little long to get your drink so if you are in a hurry order ahead.

This is the best boba you will find in Corpus! I didn't think there would be a boba place in the area with shaved ice and crepes. I had the taro milk tea, and my girlfriend had the oolong milk tea. Both tasted great, but my girlfriend thought that the oolong milk tea was on the sweeter side. She thought the taro milk tea was just fine. During my second visit my friend thought that the milk tea was a tad sweet for his liking as well. I highly recommend getting the shaved ice! It was delicious, and they have a wide variety of toppings. I will have to try their crepes during my next visit. This place is very spacious with many tables and some couches. There are also board games available, as almost every boba place has board games. This would be a great place to study at while enjoying some boba, as it doesn't seem to get crowded and very loud. Whenever I tried to study at boba places in San Diego during college it was always very crowded and super loud... I will definitely be back! read more

VU Tea - Oolong milk tea, taro shaved ice, and taro milk tea - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Corpus Christi, Texas

The interior is painted bright green. There's a ton of seating and natural light streaming in the front windows. The service was quick and friendly. Got the Thai tea with boba, and it was above average (I've had it across the country, including in Chinatown in San Fran). My only complaint would be that this isn't a place I can see myself wanting to hang out. The furniture is thrown together and a bit beat down. But it takes a lot to be a small business owner, so I'm happy to overlook the ambiance in favor of tasty tea to go. read more
