Review for Pearl Bubble Tea & Coffee
This place is a hidden gem! I stopped by Pearl Bubble Tea & Coffee almost by accident—and now it’s my go-to spot whenever I’m in town. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with friendly staff who genuinely care about your order. You can feel that this café is more than just a business—it’s a dream brought to life by people who love what they do.
Their taro bubble tea is creamy and perfectly balanced, and the Vietnamese iced coffee packs a real punch. Everything is made fresh, and you can customize sweetness and ice levels, which is a big plus.
Story behind the cup: I learned from the owner that they started this shop as a family project during the pandemic. What began as a small idea turned into a full-blown café because they wanted to bring joy and comfort to people—one bubble tea at a time. You can taste that passion in every drink.
Tip for first-timers: Try the mango green tea with lychee popping boba—it’s a customer favorite for a reason! And if you’re staying a while, grab a seat by the window. It’s the perfect spot to...
Read moreThe worker recommended a Vietnamese coffee to me and it was fantastic! Not bitter, but strong, and rich. I also tried a Boba tea which was Terro(sp?) flavored. It was also great.

Hone in on the fact that the business is Vietnamese and bring that out into the business as much as possible. Share how tea is incorporated in the Vietnamese culture and invite people to explore the culture. The place is so beautiful and I would love to go to a tea...
Read moreEasily one of the best boba places I have been to! The drink menu is incredibly extensive without compromising on quality, and the desserts are attractive and tasty. We tried several different drinks and pastries, which were all amazing. The lavender cold foam was particularly unique and delicious. The cafe itself is gorgeous, with lots of real plants and natural light, as well as plentiful seating and free wifi. The customer service is also outstanding. The owner, Annie, as well as a few other members of the management team, checked in with us to make sure everything was good, and even brought me a complimentary dessert! Gina was very friendly as well, and made us feel welcome in the space. Pearl is truly a gem, especially to be located in Canton. It is a privilege to be able to support such a successful woman and minority-owned business, and I hope they...
