    I was in search of a bubble tea spot on vacation and found this gem of a place next door to my hotel. They make an amazing lemon green tea and their boba is delicious. My boyfriend got the blended fruit smoothie which has real fruit blended into it. Refreshingly delicious drinks at a fair price!

    Loved the pearl tea. Kids as well. Loosing one star just for not having a place to sit inside ... But not really a big deal if u just want a take out.

    Old school bubble tea spot in the heart of Waikiki! It's super convenient but honestly nothing to write home about. Very standard old school milk tea that you can get pretty much anywhere nowadays. It's definitely not bad, just quite mediocre considering how far bubble tea has gotten. Have to say though, the workers were incredibly nice!

    A lot of options! You can choose bubble tea or any kind of beverages :) also have snacks too. I got peach iced tea with bubbles and it was awesome. Not too sweet and tasted great. Also can change sugar percentage of course. I really recommend :)

    Sweet soft spoken staff multiple items to pick from! Clean and well-kept environment. They also have the menu posted up on the outside of the shop so you can look before going in. It’s easier to decide outside what you want due to the store being small and it’s easily congested. They also have stands with additional items for purchase. Multiple boba options. The taro smoothie with tapioca boba was amazing and so wast the lavender milk tea

    Quick in and out about 3 blocks ago. This location is near Ross. We ordered the Taro milk tea and the tiger brown sugar milk tea. Hubby likes my taro better but we loved that they had 33oz cups which we've never got anywhere.

    Coffee or Tea? is really cute. The store is clean and the people that work there are nice. I actually found myself asking do I want coffee or tea bc they had so many choices. The green jasmine tea and black tea are good. Espresso was tasty too. And there was no line bc it's a little off the beaten path. Good choice to come here.

    Best bubble tea on the island! So many delicious looking desserts including shave ice, bubble tea, and other snacks. Definitely a must go.

    To start off when I walked in they didn’t bother to say hi or welcome they just sat there waiting for me to order. Then when I ordered he immediately threw my receipt in the trash (which I wanted). Finally they gave me a strawberry milk shake not the strawberry milk TEA I ordered. I wasn’t going to complain since they didn’t bother trying to speak to me so I left. Definitely not going back.

    My family and I discovered this boba tea shop and fell in love with it immediately. We got the tiger boba ice cream which tastes just like the ice cream bar. We also got the fresh taro boba smoothie which is our favorite as well. You will not be disappointed. Price was very reasonable for the sizes we got. The only reason I have a star off was the service took a bit. There is only one staff that takes your order and makes it. We had to wait almost 10 mins before placing our order and then another 10-15 mins before receiving our 3 boba’s. Despite the limited staffing and wait our girls went back almost every day which was a 15 mins walk from where we stayed. It was worth it.

    Not sure why this place doesn’t get more recognition. We eat the hell out of shave ice and these guys have taken another swing at it. We loved it. It’s different but if you like Asian food, we highly recommend. No line, kind service, great drinks and food.

    I saw a picture of boba and ice cream on the window and knew I had to try it. The ice cream is a nice creamy vanilla flavor. The boba is chewy and plentiful. I've only had boba with milk tea but boba and ice cream was very creative and fun. I plan to come back again.

    I had a Taro Milk tea with Boba. The taste of the boba was slightly sweet and plenty. I’ve had better. Based on the reviews, I thought it would be great. The staff really didn’t communicate much; however, there was a variety of boba options and desserts - and that was different

    I had the honeydew milk shake. I loved it! I had the lychee jelly with it but cost me additional $1. I just did not like when the paper straw melted even before I finish the whole cup.

    Became my favorite place while visiting Honolulu, they have multiple locations with. very friendly staff.

    Came here looking for this shop because we loved it so much when we came here last time. Google said they were open but it appears this location has been closed without any updates on their website or Google. It's really too bad we loved it a lot but I do wish they would have updated their page so we didn't drive over just to find a shuttered store. Just a warning for anyone looking for bubble tea or coffee here it's closed 😔

    Delicious boba tea! Surprised there aren’t more boba places in Waikiki, so glad we found this place! Fell in love with ube on this trip and so excited that they had an ube boba tea!

    Great Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and Asam Milk Tea with boba.

    Very good! My sister and I went three days in a row. I love the tiger brown sugar milk tea and the jasmine green milk tea, while my sister likes the honey iced black tea. The service is great as well.
