5/5 Love boba binge. They get my business at least once week. Love the milk tea and the Thai tea Meatball and egg is my go to bahn mi. Only complaint I have is sometimes they aren't open at 11 or even 12 on Saturdays. So the schedule is just kinda when they are open. Missed out on them a couple times because I didn't know when they would be open. Great service, great staff.

Great boba with lots of options and super friendly service. There's even a nice patio outside to enjoy. I like that they clearly label the caffeine free options suitable for kids. Highly recommended!

I've ordered a couple of times from this place and almost every time they've gotten my order wrong...Food is decent, but not getting what you ordered is very disappointing.

Was happy to see another boba spot in the area! Never heard of boba binge before I ran into it. We got fruity drinks with boba and the fruit flavor combinations were rlly unique! My drink had a mix of passion fruit mango and guava which was delicious! They had a lot of great options so it was hard to decide. Pros: lots of options of toppings and types of drinks Cons: seemed a little bit understaffed Value: 4.5/5 Taste: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5

I am a big fan of the original Boba Binge but didn't like how difficult parking was. Plus there was always a line during lunchtime and let's face it, I get impatient. At a time when other restaurants are closing in Oakland, I was happy to see Boba Binge expanding and opening a second location. Parking is slightly better and you don't have to deal with the Chinatown crowd. My go to is the #7 with pork loaf and pork sung, hold the onions. The ingredients are always fresh and plentiful. I like all the customizations too - you don't get that at the other banh mi shops. Well, you can but they always seem kinda annoyed ha. But these younger folks get it! Their drinks menu is great. Smoothies, Vietnamese coffees, milk teas - the quality is there AND really good pricing. If it was only a boba shop, I'd still come here just for the drinks. This place actually makes me miss our old neighborhood but luckily, we still come by from time to time. Currently sipping on their delicious jasmine milk tea as I type this - the tea is legit. Support this local business!

Came back today with a fully charged laptop ready to try the banh mi! I ordered the grilled chicken one, and I think it was by far the best banh mi I've ever had! I did remove the jalapeño on the ordering option because I like mine without. The bread was nice and crunchy, coated with creamy mayo, and the perfect amount of pickled veggies- definitely a must-try!

My first time and I'm hooked! Ordered the hot ginger milk tea with honey boba and the lemongrass tofu banh mi. The ginger came though in the hot ginger milk tea, it was so good! Boba was fresh and QQ chewy! The banh mi also deserves high praises because they used the kind of tofu you get at specialty Vietnamese vegetarian delis, the herbs were fresh, that pepper was hot, and the bread was crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside! Y'all, I don't have to go to San Jose to get a real banh mi anymore, I'll come here! Check them out! The woman taking my order was wonderful too!

I like the light sauce they use in their cold cut banh mi! Quick
Large menu and does a lot of delivery orders it seems. A few seats inside but not the most cozy vibes. Drink was solid though. Great for an afternoon pick me up.

Egg coffee is pretty sweet to me, so I think I will choose lower level sweet for the next time. However, I really love the quality of Vietnamese coffee that is strong enough to me.

Should probably stir in flavorings more. Highly doubt there's much tea in this particular drink, so you get lots of mouth feel from the sheer volume of whole milk and syrupy sweetness I attribute to taro powder.

Awesome lunch spot! I got the mango green tea and #1 banh mi dac biet. The spot is at a soft opening but already pretty popular-- I waited there and quite a few others as well! I got the tea at 25% sweet and it was perfectly balanced between the mango and team flavor. I especially appreciated the mango chunks-- not just syrup! As for the sandwich-- great balance of flavors and ratio of fillings to bread. I'd say the bread was a little on the crusty side if that's what you enjoy then great! I prefer a slightly less wreck the roof of your mouth crunch but would still come back again for the sandwich when the craving hits! Will def come back to try more
