BoBaPOP Tea Bar — Restaurant in San Gabriel

Good variety of choices in drink, ice ratio, sweetness, and toppings. Prices were fair for the cup sizes, toppings tend to be a bit more on the higher end. Somewhat cozy interior with beautiful light arrangements. Interior design leans more to the contemporary cafe shop.

Came here twice: Once for matcha milk tea with white pearls. Second time for matcha milk tea with white pearls and winter melon tea.

I found that the matcha milk tea had a bit of a powdery texture on the tongue. Either they didn't shake it well or the milk was already saturated with matcha. Bf also noted that it was hard for him to get the pearls despite it being smaller than the straw. He did like how it tasted and went back for it the second time.

For the winter melon tea, I found it too sweet for my taste. I could have opted for lower sweetness but Bf's sweet tooth favored it. I should have added in some white pearls into it. At home, I like my winter melon tea on the more dilute side to savor the mellow sweetness.

Overall experience was good, fairly fast service and a good...

One of my favorite hangout spots to grab boba with friends! Super cute shop with colorful lantern decorations, and there are quite a few tables and seats. They have additional stools stacked on the side as well. Good spot to catch up with a friend or bring your laptop and study/work while enjoying boba, since they also have wifi here.

My go-to is the BobaPOP Milk Tea Bobapop, which is the #1 customer favorite here. If you like a good classic milk tea with boba (which is my preference whenever I go to boba shops), this is a great option. But they have tons of other great options here like foam teas, milk teas, fruit teas, lattes, etc. My friend's favorite drink here is the Mango Slush, which I also really enjoy since it's nice and refreshing.

Service is always wonderful! The servers have been very nice and friendly while taking my order. Definitely a great spot that I always look forward...

This Boba shop has been featured in LA eats recommendation. So today, after having our dim sum, we decided to come to find out if they are worthy of the recommendation.

We asked the shop people to recommend the most popular boba tea. With high expectation, we gushed the tea down once we got the order.

The tea was so sweet even though we asked for half sugar. The tea itself was very diluted to point that we can only taste the milk and the sugar. On the other hand, they did a good job on the boba. The bobas were tender and chewy.

Another complaint I had was the size of the order. The cup we got was very small compared to the boba teas from other shops. The prices are not cheap. Definitely not a good value.

With the bad experience on the tea, we probably wouldn't come back as there are many good boba tea places in the SGV. With so much hype, this shop doemeet our...
