Boba Binge Uptown — Restaurant in Oakland

This place is incredible! Not only is the boba amazing they offer three different non-dairy options, including lactose free, which is my favorite because it doesn’t change the flavor of the milk tea! Most boba places do not offer this option.

This is my fourth time coming, and my partner is hooked on it and she never liked Boba before! (She hated it) They are that good.

I usually get the Thai tea or the honeydew with honey Boba and the cheese milk foam - don’t knock it till you try it💯

If you’re unfamiliar with Boba, this is the place to go. The guy who is usually at the cash register (with the cute blonde highlights) is really great, super kind, patient, knowledgeable and doesn’t treat you like you are supposed to know how to order Boba cause that’s BS (And honestly, typical of most Boba places). The menu is extensive and there are many different options and it might feel like a labyrinth, but take your time and ask questions because they answer them all. You can also order from the kiosk and they have pictures doesn’t get easier than that.

This is a fantastic place for first timer‘s who are new to Boba as well as people who been drinking it long before it got hype (like me).

The food is bomb. I usually get the meatball sandwich with egg and the char sui banh mi. I can get two drinks and two sandwiches for under 40 bucks. They’re not trying to rob you here - they just serve great food.

Also, the restrooms are clean, and my dog can chill in there while I down a sandwich.

So go see them, but don’t blow up the spot because they’re already...

I was sad when we lost the Thai cafe due to covid on this little plaza. The places that were here are pretty heavy and not suitable for lunch, especially for people that are vegetarian. I walked by this little Boba cafe a ton before realizing that they offer Banh Mi sandwiches! Yeah! While not total health food, it's a reasonable treat. Thankfully there are alternatives to pork and chicken, and more than one veggie banh mi. I think there's something about the name that makes people think it's only about Boba. I was ordering and the other lady I was with thought it was boba only too until recently. Maybe if they renamed it "Boba and Banh Mi?" Totally unsure. The Banh Mi is great, and has crunchy fresh vegetables so it's a nice alternative to the explosion of deep fried meat takeout...

The Grilled chicken banh mi's are a favorite of ours, All the drinks are incredible , butttttt.... you messed up our pick up order, ordered 4 of the above sandwiches for 4 of us, but you only got 3 out of 4 correct, got another customer's! labeled sandwich for our 4th. And it was not to our liking, you all need to slow down, calm down, and double check your orders, that Combination banh mi wasn't appreciated, y'all always seem stressed and hectic, accuracy is everything, sorely...
