So... I'm not sure if they allow double the amount of boba, but Chowbus lets us order double the amount so I did that, but I only ordered that for one of the drinks I got and I ended up getting like a third of the amount of boba compared to the other two drinks I got. So I ended up paying for boba twice but didn't even get a decent amount.

Food: I got deerioca creme brulee with boba, and it didn't impress me.Service: The staff didn't bother to explain the difference or answer when i asked what the most popular drink was. I felt very unwelcomed.Atmosphere: it's a cute shop with a deer painting and decorations. They also have some merch but they were a bit pricey.

What shocked me the most was that a fat woman was actually running around the store. She might be their boss, but the store clerk didn't stop her. Oh my God, it was disturbing the customers! Talking about drinks, the brown sugar pearl milk tea is recommended to be renamed as brown sugar sauce milk tea, and your white peach oolong has a rancid taste, and there is even tea dirt in it!

I got two bobas. The original one I wanted came with boba and when I asked them to leave it out as I couldn’t digest tapioca pearls well, they said no. Which was fine on its own but the cashier looked me up and down when I asked and sneered, answering while looking at me as if I was dumb. Since I couldn’t get what I wanted, I asked for a regular milk tea. She proceeded to stare at me and ask which flavor so I just chose any random one I saw. After everything I said she just kept saying is that all? Is that all? As if she didn’t want to get my order at all. I finally got my milk tea and my sister got some strawberry yogurt drink. The milk tea just tasted like watered down milk with ice. There was no tea flavor or sweetness at all. Just bland all the way. The strawberry yogurt shake drink was just strawberry syrup and ice. Not even mixed together and did not taste like yogurt at all. Overall such a bad experience. Won’t ever be coming again.

I went to get the Jujutsu Kaisen drinks, and I really loved Gojo and Geto drinks!! I also got Riko, but since it was just milk tea, I did not love it since I am not a really big fan of milk tea. Anyway everything else was great!

Absolute favorite boba spot! Great service and it’s always so clean. My fav is the Brown Sugar Deerioca Crème brûlée with Taro! They use real taro!

Went for the JJK Collab, and immediately fell in love with this place! The drinks were nice and the atmosphere was great to vibe in. Also it’s in a really good area to walk around/eat!

Was shooed away when it wasn't even 10pm. Cashier was extremely rude but served other customers. I felt we were being judged by our race.

I ordered brown sugar boba and got few boba with cold milk. No flavor or sweetness, total garbage, two high school kids running the shop without prior experience.

Buying something to drink. The front desk looked unhappy. I bought a 6-yuan milk tea and drank it as if we had a life-and-death feud. The taste of the drink was extremely bland. After changing the boss, I no longer have the same feeling I had when I was in high school two or three years ago. The air conditioning is not turned on in the summer, but in the winter the door is left open to let in cold air. The sofa has not been cleaned for an unknown period of time and is full of dirt. If you really don’t have money and don’t know how to run a business, then don’t lose your brand. A lot of shit.

Returned to one of my favorite boba places for their Jujutsu Kaisen x The Alley collaboration!! TIP: If you're coming for the JJK collab, be sure to call beforehand to ensure supplies are still there for the day! This is a very popular event hahah The merch that comes with their special edition drinks are sooo good! Limitless Coconut (Gojo) and Strong Mango (Geto) smoothies took about 10 minutes but so worth it! My favorite was the coconut Gojo smoothie (love the blue colors!) and my partner loved the mango Geto smoothieCute and fun collab and much needed for a pick me up after JJK's most recent season lol :'( (ifykyk)

Ordered Brown Sugar boba and Creme Brulee with Organic Milk, Strawberry Green Tea with Pineapple Jelly, and Snow Strawberry Smoothie.The cups are the worse to use since I prefer my drinks to be SUPER cold!Snow Strawberry smoothie was gross. The texture was thick and all I can taste seems like yogurt milk. The Strawberry Green wasn't good.Last but not least, the brown sugar w milk was nasty. We didn't finished our drink cuz it was that bad!Service was okay and the ambiance was chill and great for hanging out.Definitely won't be coming back!
