Amazing service! Nice elderly couple running the place. They have a great selection of teas, coffee (including Vietnamese coffee), and smoothies/slushes. I got the honeydew boba, which I believe comes automatically with non dairy milk. Overall, great place inside of the market to get a quick drink.

Boba Corner is inside the S. G. Superstore at the corner of San Gabriel Blvd. and Valley Blvd. The market is inside a medium to large sized strip mall. The mall is almost always very crowded. Parking can be hard to find, but you can usually get a spot if you are patient. The lot and area are not that great. Many times there are homeless people outside of the market pan handeling. As other reviewers have said, there are better tea places elsewhere in San Gabriel, but if you are shopping at this market or just happen to be in the area and want a drink, then this is not a bad place to stop. On our visit there was just one older lady working (taking orders and making drinks). However, she was trilingual (Cantonese, Mandarin, and English). She was friendly and efficient. We got a strawberry slushie and a standard boba milk tea. All the drinks were about $4.25-5.50 on our visit (see menu pics, some with prices). The slushie was not too sweet, but was a lot sweeter than the tea. The quality of both was ok. The bobas were medium cooked (not mushy and not hard), so depends on your preference for how you like these and how consistent they are making it here. Tips: (1) If they are busy and you order a drink, stay and wait for it to be prepared. On our visit, several people ordered and left and our drink was made first while we waited. Many people may order and go shopping and come back later. So if you want your drink faster, stay and wait for it. On the whole, the current 3.5 star Yelp average is about right. We gave 4 stars cause we had a good visit and their product was fine. If in the area or shopping here, then give these guys a try if you want a boba or other drink.

Literally the most average place that you can satisfy your craving. Located in the San Gabriel superstore food court. The prices are quite cheap compared to competitors outside of the establishment. They have all the basics and a few specialties of their own. I would sometimes stop by here for a quick fix if I was really craving something. They also sell some snacks like tea eggs, if you aren't looking for anything in the food court.

Soukay. Mostly came after shopping at the market and it was middle of the heat wave 100F every single day and needed a refresher. My mom got the ice milk tea w boba and I got the Super Fresh Lemon Honey Green tea which was $5.75. The lemon one was good but not something I'd come back for specifically. Nice lady behind counter. They also have Tea eggs for a quick healthy protein snack and very reasonable. I think it was two for $2.50? I overheard the price so double check.

It wasn't too sweet and it's the perfect summer drink! $3.99 without boba and with boba was, $4.50. Large is $5 and I love the flavor of this boba and price too!

First time here. Ran in to pick up some fresh veggies at SG Superstore and glad I stopped for some refreshing tea at Boba Corner. I tried the aloe honey tea it was soooo refreshing and delicious it was exactly what I wanted. Friendly service. I will come back soon!

This place isn't really that bad for how much they charge for drink. It's very old school and honestly sometimes I stop by here after grocery shopping for the nostalgia factor. It doesn't compare to other boba places in the area but it's been around for god knows how long in the same spot and the same supermarket. The only thing I don't like is that it's cash only but other than that the service is good and the drinks are fine and nothing to write home about.

DRINK:5/5 I got the fresh sugarcane drink which was great for a hot summer day! It has the perfect amount of sweetness. I also added kumquat in the drink and highly recommend for a hint of sourness. If you need a beverage to quench your thirst, I would suggest checking this local drink shop out!

This Boba Corner is okay. Boba tastes good but nothing is really special about them. They are located inside SG Superstore by the east entrance.
Today at 5:09 pm is when my Thai tea boba is done. I order a regular size Thai tea boba. The boba have iced and the way I like my boba to be! The price was a reasonable price. This is the place I like to get my boba at the supermarket outlet!

My kids were happy with their jasmine milk tea with Boba and strawberry and banana smoothie with boba. The price was fair. The couple that run/own ot are nice and so cute! It was a good find.

I come to the supermarket pretty often since they also sell a lot of Filipino products, but not once did I ever bother buying from this little boba corner. A friend of ours shared Combo 4 with us one time, and it was surprisingly really good! Very reminiscent of the Filipino dessert "halo-halo." We had to order it again the next time we did some shopping. That time, I looked at the menu more thoroughly and decided I'd try more stuff later on. I came across "Eco," fell in love, and decided it would be my usual. It was a reasonably sized bowl enough for two people to share all under $4. It had chia seeds, egg pudding, boba, and a small assortment of jelly, with just the right level of sweetness. I could not believe how cheap and good it was! I highly recommend it. I also do recommend trying out this place the next time you're shopping inside the supermarket.

Boba Corner is located in the San Gabriel Superstore. We ordered four large fresh sugar cane juice with light ice for $6.00 each. We were able to see the employee juiced the sugar cane, which was very nice. We knew we couldn't get them fresher than that. The fresh sugar cane juice was naturally sweet and very refreshing.
best taro milk tea and butter!!
