17 Best Bubble Tea near Highland Park

“The location is always kept clean, it is small and it is easier to take-out. The staff are SO friendly and patient! The portions are very generous and the prices speaks for it. Everything tastes fresh. I order pick up and it’s always ready before or by when I get to the location. Pick up/takeout is most common!“

“First time ordering from here. Cute little place. Employees were nice and greeted me when I walked in. I ordered the salmon obsession w/o the mandarin orange. I didn't realize that the sauce it comes with is a mayo based sauce. I'm not a big fan of mayo at all so that the me off right away. After removing the sauce from my food, I was able to eat it. the bowl was good but needed a little kick.“

“We love supporting local business in the city of Des Plaines! This was a gem that we found today and the coffee was delicious. The employees of River Woods Funeral Chapels had the LaVie En Rose and the Mocha. We loved getting to know the staff and making friends in the lobby. Parking was also very convenient. This will be our usual place to get coffee!!!!!! Des Plaines Local Guide“

“This is one of the only places in my area offering non-dairy milk as an option. The worker is super nice and friendly, she remembered I was a previous customer as well. The establishment is clean and the drinks are absolutely delicious. She also re-confirms the add ons and substitutions before she made my drink orders“

“I’m telling you guys, this store waffle are so satisfying. The taste, the texture, the crunchy. Take this from a guy who doesn’t eat waffles. I was blown away. To the point I have to write a review cause whoever is coming to try must must try there waffle. I had the salted caramel and butter and dayummmm. SPIRIT LIFTED 5/5Parking: Right in front, 5 to 10 parking spots“

“Our favorite boba tea in the area! We order 25% sweet for the adults and 50% sweet for the kids. I particularly enjoy the green tea flavor milk tea or the Thai tea flavor milk tea, both with tapiocas. Friendly staff and we love the drawings of dinosaurs all over the interior. Parking is also easy in their lot.Parking: Easy - about 20 spacesKid-friendliness: Kids love it!“

“This review is brought to you by the letter F! F: resh mochi, rice flour based donuts every time! Rotating flavors to suit every palate. F: amily friendly menu, with Korean hot dogs, donuts, bubble tea, and coffee drinks. F: ind it at the northeast corner of the Milwaukee/Golf intersection next to Fannie May.“

“It was my first time here and wow, it was so good! I need to try the other dishes, but the Beef Yakiniku Donburi was so delicious!!! The dish has butter corn and beef in a garlic bbq sauce. I also ordered the Plain Bob Ramen with Torino broth, which taste the same from Torino Restaurant. The place is small but there's one large table. It's a great place for take out as their containers are perfect. Can't wait to try this place again!“

“I think they can be better in the speed of their service. Also availability of products. They didn't have the Taro milk boba, their boba are clumpy, they only had 2 flavors of donuts left. We were told they are making new ones but had to wait at least 30 minutes. Corn dogs are pretty good. Vibe of the place is pretty chill.“

“Great hand made noodles, price was very reasonable for the dish I got, and the room was cute and well kept. It's not fancy fine dining, with all the extra fluff but it was a great place to pop in for dinner from the hotel I was staying at around the corner.“

“The atmosphere is very calm. The food tastes fresh. You can see them through the window as they are preparing so it puts your mind at ease with the cleaniness. The servers are very thorough, they came by a few times to make sure everything was good. Over all, it was a good experience. We cant wait to see more exciting items on their menu“

“Excellent staff! Accidentally ordered to the wrong store and they were so kind and understanding. Helped me fix the issue right away. The boba is always delicious. Would always recommend! Also — all their drinks are lactose free (♡ thank u from someone who hates having to pay more for alt. Dairy options) I’ve ordered here many times and will continue to order here!Dietary restrictions: Heaven for anyone who’s lactose intolerant.“

“It was a pretty decent dessert shop. Overall a 4.5. Great customer service. If you check in on Yelp, you get $1 off any size froyo bowl. Wide selection of drinks and froyo flavors. I got the strawberry mango real fruit drink with tapioca balls. 5/5. For the froyo I got a medium size with ube, lychee, and sea salt caramel pretzel. Ube flavor wasn’t very strong. Lychee was very refreshing. Sea salt caramel pretzel was very good. You can choose as many toppings as you want, as long as they can fit. I kept it simple with fresh strawberries, fresh cherries, and pomegranate boba.There is seating but be warned, kind of limited depending on how long loitering families will stay. When we got there, there were a couple Indian families hogging two tables. They were already finished eating/drinking when we arrived. They were still there after we ate. They were probably there for a couple hours. Parking lot is also very tight and small. Difficult for cars entering/exiting. No restrooms.“

“I honestly do not think I have had a significantly bad experience here the past 4-5 years since I started going. I have ordered delivery and pick up and sometimes dine-in. Food, drinks, and snacks are always good and they try to accommodate dietary stuff when possible. The one time they made a mistake the manager offered me a gift card so I could replace my meal for no charge (I think it was like $10 total back then). I definitely recommend their bento boxes! They're filling portions that are relatively healthy with veggies and are also super tasty :)“

“The interior and vibe is amazing. Ladies who took my order were very nice and friendly . They even gave me to try their sample teas, so that I can decide if I want sweet one or not. Their earl grey milk tea is yummy , best if you try it without sugar.“

“Heard about this little Mexican cantina and checked it out for some tacos and more. It's a pretty new business and the hours can be screwy, so you may have to come by a few times. Chikito Pero Picoso has Mexican cold drinks and ice cream. Lots of hot stuff of course with the street style food. There's lots of crazy flavors to get and prices aren't bad mostly.A pretty warm day called for something cold. It had some kind of street atmosphere going on. There were lots of flavors of agua fresca, which is flavored water. It's about $6 for a large. Kind of pricy but this was good quality stuff. As for the food, mostly tacos but a few other things you may not expect, like ramen. It was about $2 for tacos. The customers get to pick out toppings and watch. For dessert there's of course the ice cream. There's also açaí bowls for non dairy options.Good authentic Mexican classic and modern street food. It's a small place so you'll probably eat outside. There's cold treats including the horchata and ice cream, and hot eats such as tacos.“

“Stopped by for a late night boba run as this is one is open late. It is small but they have a wide variety of options and they have some seating but It is very popular. There were no tables available because it was packed. Parking can get tricky depending on how busy it is, you may need to park in the back. I ordered a regular size brown sugar milk tea with tapioca boba. It was on the sweeter side than I'm use to. I enjoyed the tapioca balls they had a good consistency to them. I'd be curious to try some other flavors and items on their menu.“
