Boba Guys

Used to be a 5-star spot for me, but I'm giving it a 4-star because ordering in-person has to be done at the kiosk, which somehow long allow to customize the sweetness and ice level for Hong Kong style milk tea. This is uncommon in most boba tea businesses, and also different than my previous experience at Boba Guy (or experience since 2017 to the beginning of the pandemic). So this is a little disappointing. I don't know if they can stay competitive this way, without considering the increased cost of the milk tea.

Amazing experience; so happy I live close enough to return regularly. Service was friendly, tea was delivered very quickly. - Strawberry Jasmine w/ Boba: Fragrant and refreshing, without being too sweet. - Lychee Oolong w/ Aloe Jelly: Lychee flavor was not overpowering, and aloe jelly was both jelly-ish and a bit crisp/fibrous, in the best way possible. - Korean Banana Milk w/ Aloe Jelly (ik ik): Almond milk-based. This was by far my favorite. Overall great experience, highly recommend it.

Highest quality and most authentic tea! Best boba in the Bay Area hands down. There is not one bad drink, I get the same thing every time and never get sick of it. great customer service (I've seen them put up with some pretty tough customers) personally, out of the 10 years Ive been going here, never encountered one issue.

This place is overall really good. The honey boba is fresh. The Thai tea was good. The original milk tea was good as well. Normal prices. Friendly staff. Short wait time. Definitely recommend. Skip the Thai Tea it isn’t authentic. Ask for a lot less ice than you usually do. They will water it down killing the taste. (Dirty Horchata is good) The seasonal Mango sticky rice drink is amazing!

I got this really tasty mango and sweet rice drink (I couldn’t taste the mango :(( ). The beverage was also ready 4 minutes after ordering and was moderately priced. They give you paper (?) straws which is thoughtful. It was kinda hard to eat the sticky rice, though, and I had to scoop it out using my straw. Eating this was a challenge that I didn’t expect, basically.
