Boba Corner

This boba shop is found inside a giant food court-​cum-​supermarket.
Avocado — i was not satisfied
Durian — my friend loved it
Strawberry — too sweet
Coffee Milk Tea — pretty good
Taro — not bad
A little pricey.
Not the quickest service.

They have specials like 2 for $ 4.50 with the selected drinks. Honestly not bad for a tiny place in a supermarket… reminds me of Lollicup. I get their iced coffee and grass jelly milk tea.

Green milk tea slush tasted like ice. I asked them to switch it to a regular Green milk tea and they did, but my drink still tasted like water. Sigh, the drink is so simple, yet so disgusting here. Probably should have just went down the street to BMCC or across the street to Starbucks.
Thai tea also just tasted like milk. I guess they’re skimping out on the «Tea» part?

Located inside the super market plaza this store is pretty small but they do carry a lot of different options for drinks which is a bonus.
Don’t forget to bring some cash that’s all they except. Ordered a taro ice slushy and friend got ginger milk tea.
Both enjoyed our drinks and it came out really right away. I think if you want something quick and don’t expect much this is an alright place to come.
We both didn’t add any toppings so I’m not too sure how good they are or aren’t I don’t really add toppings due to the fact that it makes the drinks even more sweet.

PROS
–inexpensive
–boba is squishy
–they also have mini boba
CONS
–should have blended the lavender milk tea more: could feel the powder in my mouth
FINAL THOUGHTS
–i come back here because it’s cheap and convenient when i go to the food court
–some things on their menu are fine, but quality isn’t very consistent

I come here almost every Saturday after work to grab some durian smoothie for me and my girlfriend. I love it. That’s basically all I drink here because it’s pretty hard to find other smoothie places that actually sell durian smoothie made from real durian and not artificial flavor.
The only reason I gave 4 stars is because it’s inconsistent. Sometimes it is sweeter than other times but it’s still good. Would’ve wish it’s just as sweet every time.

I came here for coffee and Thai tea with my dad last time and it was so watered down I could barely taste anything once we took a few sips we threw it away, its trash.

Every time that I have visited this place they have no Boba. Why call yourself the «Boba Corner» if you’re not going to have any.

hubby and i met with a friend for lunch and decided to get some drinks first since there was a 2 for $ 3.50 special. considering the price of a bubble tea drink can easily balloon to $ 4 or $ 5 (depending on what you add to your drink), $ 3.50 for two 16oz drinks was a pretty sweet deal.
hubby ordered a strawberry icy slush drink, my friend ordered a standard milk tea with tapioca balls, and i ordered their special of the day, a hot soy bean milk drink (also 16oz). i enjoyed my soy bean drink as it wasn’t too sweet and tasted very fresh. hubby and my friend enjoyed their drinks as well as they slurped them down pretty fast.
the total was about $ 7 for the 3 drinks, pretty sweet deal!
conveniently located inside the square shopping center.

I got a hot taro milk tea with mini boba. I feel like I’m drinking straight diabetes. I have a huge stomach ache. Taro flavor is alright but I mean, my taste buds are being overwhelmed by the sweetness… I’m dead inside. However, I continue to drink this because it cost 3.65 and I don’t want to waste money :(

I should have read the reviews on Unilocal before going here. I got a green milk tea with rainbow jelly and it was horrible. I told the employee that this taste nothing like green milk tea, he said that was what it was and that he doesn’t know and walked away while I stood there with a drink that I paid for that tasted like crap. It taste like pure sweet crème. The employee did not care to correct the situation. I ended up throwing it away. Absolute garbage, will never go back.

I only been here once but I agree the customer service terrible…:(the little girl behind the counter charged me at first for 2 teas… I caught it when she said $ 4.34… I was like hmmm no… Then she started saying taxes that I did not take that into account… The drink is $ 1.99…then I realized she was charging me for 2… She apologized and changed the order…
Good job to all the Unilocalers that warned about this place… They were right!
The tea is ok. Got jasmine tea no boba… It’s What I expected. very jasmine-​ee-​e…

The drinks and service are awful at this place. Drinks are powdery and overly sweet even when I asked for no sugar and half sugar. Asked for an oolong milk tea and they said they don’t have oolong… so I settled for a black milk tea. Not even twenty seconds later, this conversation happened:
Me: is the black milk tea a regular milk tea?
Guy: uh… yes.
Me: oh, can I change that to a green milk tea instead?
Guy: um… let me see.
Girl: uhhhh, sorry but you can’t change your order after paying.
Me: is there a price difference?
Guy: there is.
Me: I can pay the difference.
Girl: no, we already started making the drinks so you can’t. We have a sign back there that says all sales are final. It’s a waste of our ingredient to change your order.
Um…apparently it’s a waste of their powder mix to change my order. If they had painstakingly made the tea with tea leaves, ok fine, I wouldn’t want to waste freshly made tea. Powder though? Really? And the girl didn’t hear herself when she acknowledged that I paid. I’m the paying customer, and I’m asking for a product that I should be satisfied paying for… what the freaken ey man.
They messed up the milk tea order to boot, I asked for boba.

Packaging A+ for cuteness and I love the rippled cups.
Service was average. It wasn’t bad at all, but it wasn’t like «WOW they’re the nicest person ever!!!» The only thing I didn’t like was that they had their son sitting on the table crawling around everywhere. He not only had his dirty shoes on, crawling everywhere the drinks sit, but this is also risky incase any drinks fall over. It’s also a little bit uncomfortable as your son is just sitting on the counter where I’m supposed to order, and staring. I mean, can’t you get a stool for him to sit on behind the counter and something to do like a video game? It just made the experience uncomfortable/​awkward. Other than that, the boba is tasteless, I guess I’m used to other places like Honeyboba. The pearls here are on the softer side, but they have a plastic-​y after taste if you’ve finished your drink. The milk tea is nice, it’s a milky flavor and not over powered too much of the tea flavor. The ice portion was fine for my experience. The chocolate drink was a bit stronger than other comparisons, but after a few sips I grew on to it and liked it The location is inside the grocer of the Square, which is nice if you want to roam elsewhere in the square or get a drink before leaving. I’d come back here because its so cheap, and the drinks weren’t as bad as I expected them to be, plus I’m a sucker for cute packaging. I believe its ~cash only~. The menu has alot of varieties!

Sadly, I’ll be walking on by from now on.
When Boba Corner first opened, I was so happy with their product.
I go to the market there at least 4 times a month and usually stop by for an iced or milk tea.
The last three visits made me unhappy.
I should note that each time it was the same two gals working those days.
Look at the ice level in this cup–
Too much ice!
And…this last visit, the young lady only filled it up to the top of the ice.
Six sips worth of coffee milk tea.
The last visit, I was charged $ 2.50.
This time, she said $ 2.
I asked if that was the right price for the size I wanted and said I was charged more the last time. The menu did say $ 2.50. I wanted to be an honest customer.
She just shrugged & ignored me.
So okay, I wanted to see where this would go and only gave the $ 2 that was asked for.
Whatever.
They lost my business.

Boba Boba BOba BOBa BOBA!!! Hey We All Want Some BOOOOBAAAAA!!! Well at least the munchkin and I did… and one of the munchkins buddies…
This place is in the middle of the Square Supermarket. I hadn’t been to this little mall in about 15 years. It was kind of surreal when I realized where I was and had been there before. None the less Boba Corner hadn’t been around back then, unfortunately. The good news is that it is close to the supermarket exit and the food court! Talk about great placement.
Pro Tip: The menu in English is off to the side of the order area not on the wall. That menu is in Chinese I believe.
So this joint is on the interior corner of the concourse walkway. Making it easily accessible. When I ordered, they understood what I wanted quickly, easily and succinctly. The service was pretty attentive and they made my drink in record time.
Pro Tip #2: Cash only please =\
We got the black peach tea with Boba and it was delicious. The boba balls were delightfully slightly chewy. The tea was sweet, but not overly sweet. The peach flavor pervaded everything without being over the top. Overall both the munchkin and I really enjoyed it.
It was fairly cheap for a large boba, only about $ 3.50 + tax. I can say that I will definitely be back to get another boba if I am cruising through the area again sometime soon. Even though they didn’t have lychee tea (my favorite flavor).
Be aware that parking is sometimes ridiculously bad here! There is a lot happening in this shopping center with numerous restaurants and parking took me about 10 – 15 minutes.

Cheap, edible, quick.
They don’t screw up the taro too badly, but they don’t do a great job, either.
Sort of a typical grungy Asian supermarket food court kind of place. Describes this joint perfectly. Since a big goal of such places is cheap, edible, and quick, heeeeey it works!

TEA of the MOMENT: Lavender Milk Tea
Not too bad. Low ice, very floral. Shockingly that it wasn’t sweet to the point where you could only taste sugar.
I’m quite shocked to find a semi hole-​in-​the-​wall that makes a decent drink.

While pigging out at the nearby seafood restaurant, I needed a break from savory. I did see this place when I was in the Korean market a while back, but didn’t give it a second look because it seemed like a really bad chain store. I guess I was wrong about that.
The place was dead considering I went during the time when the center looks like it was going to close for the night, but the server behind the counter still helped me, even though she did kind of looked a little mad at the fact I ordered a drink, at least I didn’t order a blended drink.
I would come back here to try another drink, just for the heck of it.

Boba corner is like what you ask? Lollicup or tapX. It’s definitely very similar to those other boba places. This location is right inside where the square supermarket is. Apparently they have numerous locations.
I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile now since my mom comes to grocery shop here fairly often. So, the bf and I finally went one day. I ordered the coconut smoothie and he ordered the Boba milk tea. They were trying to really push the two for deal with the boba milk tea. But we kept saying no. (2 for $ 3)
Boba milk tea tastes exactly like lollicup or tapX. It was sweet even though we asked for less. Coconut smoothie was good. Got quite sweet when it started to melt. This is actually one of the few boba/​tea places that offer this drink.
Small joint. There’s a few tables. Asian staff. Cash only. Plenty of parking spots. Just hard to locate a spot when you’re there on the weekends and everyone is grocery shopping.
Overall, this place is just okay. Nothing too out of the ordinary or special. Come if you are too lazy to travel far and just need a quick fix.

September special: 2 drinks for $ 3 on select menu.
I recommend the wintermelon juice over the jasmine green tea.
