Bobalicious

This local boba shop is best for after or before shopping at target. It’s pretty cheap compared to most other places on convoy). Their drinks are only $ 2.99 for the regular. They also have chrysanthemum milk tea which is easily one of my favorite flavors. It’s like a milkier/​creamier version of chrysanthemum tea with all the great floral taste. I do wish their boba is better though. If I get a slush they freeze really quickly and become hard to chew.
Service can be iffy at times. It seems mostly run by local high school students. Probably not the best boba shop in the world, but it’s conveniently located and great for when you are shopping nearby.

I’ve been going to Bobalicious since they opened. I think I was in middle school still. Anyways, my favorites are the milk tea and coconut milk tea. I always ask for less sugar since they tend to be too sweet for me. I love that they can adjust the sweetness. Their staff is always friendly and their menu is very affordable. Definitely one of my go-​to places to get my boba fix!

Not my favorite boba place in the area, but it is good enough. Every time I come in after work or later in the evening they are always out of their spicy chicken. It is pretty popular so I don’t know why the inventory for this is low. Be sure to order what you want and speak clearly otherwise your order will be wrong and they don’t correct it for you or make a new one without charging you for it.

Drinks and boba are super tasty and seam pretty fresh. Good service, even greater prices. Being with 5 star is great, they send you buy one get one free coupons pretty often.

A great hangout with friends! Boba is really good and inexpensive unlike some other boba places in San Diego. Got plenty of seating and parking.

This is my nearby boba shop, and I occasionally come here out of convenience! There is plenty of parking! There is usually a small crowd, but they work through the line pretty fast. The service is pretty good, there have been some mistakes after multiple visits, but they mostly get everything down. The drinks also come out quite fast as well.
The variety of drinks is pretty good with a ton of teas, slushes, and even things like chamango. The prices are pretty decent as well, although the quality of the slushes and smoothies are pretty mediocre, and there are better teas elsewhere. If I am looking for a quick drink and short drive this is the place!

I love their mango ice with boba. I mean really really love it. I would make love to it if possible.
Ambiance is nice too, as are the employees. 5 Stars!

I tried both the chamango and the chrysanthemum tea with boba here. Both were immensely disappointing and I had to go down the street to Tea Station to remedy the boba fix. The chamango I’ll chalk up to it just not being my style. The chrysanthemum tea just tasted like honey water — sweet syrupy mess — not refreshing as it should be. The boba is nothing to write home about — flavorless, little «q» — definitely couldn’t stand on its own. They were out of more than half their snacks. This plaza is kind of lonely to begin with, I wouldn’t go out of my way to stop here.

I used to drive to Convoy for my Thai Tea drinks, but for the past couple years I’ve been coming here. This place is the BEST and here’s why:
#1 — Their customer service is better than the other places I’ve been to… everybody is freakin’ nice and helpful. I think it has something to do with the rap, hip/​hop music they play… it puts everybody in a good mood.
#2 — Their drinks are the bomb!!! On one occasion my drink tasted a little off, and they made a new one for me… no questions asked.
#3 — They have the best prices and an easy rewards program. Enter your phone number and you get a free drink for every 10 you order! Since I come here 3 – 6 times a week, I get free drinks all the time.
#4 — The food is awesome. My favorite is the nachos, which comes as a huge order for under $ 2.75. I love me some crack nachos!
#5 — This place is clean and well-​maintained. Thank God cuz my new girlfriend can’t stand dirty places, and I would never hear the end of it. I would either have to find me a new boba place with crack nachos or worst case scenario… I would have to replace my fine-​a$$ girlfriend. Phew… thank God the place is clean.
Life is good… crack nachos and my fine-​a$$ girlfriend!

This will definitely satisfy your sweet tooth… and might give you cavities! My friend and I came here around 10 PM on a Friday night, and the place was pretty packed. The menu was short and sweet, and we were able to order and receive our orders quickly.
I ordered:
–1 green (milk) tea with lychee jelly /​/​WAYYY too sweet! At least half the cup was syrup sugar. Green tea taste was minimal… I literally only took 2 sips and threw the rest out.
Pros:
–Simple menu. Easy to read, in and out in a few minutes if you’re in a rush.
–Great service. The girl was quick to help and recommend.
–Nice ambiance. Sketchy spot in this plaza, but a nice place to hang out with friends later at night!
Cons:
–Meh quality drinks. Not impressed at all.
Tips/​Observations:
–Parking is spacious!
–They accept 5 Stars!
Overall…not so great. I was pretty disappointed but I would definitely ask them to lower on sweetness next time!

Very disappointed. The boba is flavorless. My slush wasn’t blended enough so there was too much ice and my husband’s taro milk tea tastes like chalk. My poor husband isn’t even going to drink his tea. I expected a lot more from this place considering the high overall rating and all the other places around this area we could have tried.
The girl at the register was really nice. I would have added a star just for that but the taro milk tea was just so terrible I can’t.

One of my favorite boba place in the area along with Tea Station. I love the boba here. Made with boba that is cooked well that it gives the balance between soft and chewy. Also almost all their drinks are made with fresh fruit (something that’s rare to many boba places). Plus their menu isn’t limited to what’s on the board. They will take and mix flavors together for you, make unique drinks (as long as you bring in ingredients they don’t have), and will change things like sugar content per request. All of there drinks are good give them a try once in a while even if you have a drink you get all the time.
The snacks here are good too! But what’s most unique is their popcorn chicken. It’s freshly cut then dropped off at the store to be cooked and it taste great (to me). I hear they also might make fresh calamari in the future!
The people here are nice too. They’re friendly, listen to suggestions, and participate in small talk. The atmosphere is also nice. Music and decorations during holidays! Great place to hangout with friends too.
It’s also a great location in Mira Mesa. You can come here after doing multiple errands from Target, GameStop, Bed Bath & Beyond, Kohl’s, etc… You can just walk there from your errands. Also a great spot for a late night snack or dessert after eating from the many restaurants in the area.

Is this the best boba place in town? No way.
Is this a boba place I’d go to? If I’m in the area, sure.
Is this the cheapest/​best value boba place in SD? Most definitely lol. At $ 3 a boba, it’s hard to find anywhere cheaper, but sometimes it’s one of those «you get what you pay for» type deals.
You won’t find any actual teas here like at Tea Station, or any non-​traditional boba flavors like at Tapioca Heaven, but Bobalicious has all your standard milk tea, slush and smoothie flavors, with your basic snacks like popcorn chicken.
Depending on what you get, its obvious that they use a powder base for some of their flavors, which can lead to some weird, grainy consistencies (like in their taro and strawberry milk teas) and sometimes their slushes can be overly icy or too syrupy. If I’m craving boba I’ll probably stick with Tea Station but I won’t gripe over going to Bobalicious either.

I love coming here when I am in Mira Mesa. I am such a boba fan. The boba here is soft and delicious. I am trying to taste different flavors rather than ordering a few of my favorite flavors. I love lychee, mango and the passionfruit flavor. Those are my go to flavors. On yesterday’s visit, I got to try watermelon and apple. Both flavors were on point. So good and refreshing. I still have not tried the food here. Maybe next time.
There were tables and a couch in the business which I like and cool hip hop music was playing. It seriously made me want to dance. I love the atmosphere and the guy working the front was super nice. The line goes fairly fast and they get their busy moments.
If you join their rewards program, you get a buy one get one free boba drink. Give them your cell number and get great rewards. They sent a text asking me my birthday and you get a free gift on your birthday. I just love this place. Regular sized drinks go for $ 2.99 and some of the other drinks range up to about $ 4.25. Still not too bad for a boba drink. I highly recommend this place! Awesome boba drinks!

It’s been so long since I’ve been back to this spot. I’ve seen it go through so many changes. The drinks are good here but not something I would drive out of my way to get. It did hit the boba craving spot while I was in the area. We ordered a green milk tea and a peppermint smoothie. Both drinks were good but really sweet. A little heavy on the syrup and a little artificial tasting compared to other places I frequent.
Customer service was great we were greeted with a smile and the cashier was friendly. And the drinks were made quickly even with a packed store.
Atmosphere is relaxing, several flat screen televisions on the walls with sports and racing. The walls are painted black with white graffiti art and the bobalicous tagged on one wall. They have couches and tables. Good spot to lounge for a bit while you enjoy your boba. Oh yes they also sell snack foods. French fries, crispy chicken. Etc.

Perfect name for this place!
Boba + delicious = Bobalicious
My group came here the other night after having some carne asada fries and rolled tacos. The young lady here was very friendly and was knowledgeable about the menu. I saw a sign that said they serve chamango.
It sounded good! According to the server it is made with real mango blended with ice, diced mango pieces, chamoy, and comes with a tamarind straw. They add sugar because sometimes the mangoes they have may not be sweet enough… but in cases where the mangoes are ripe and sweet, when they add sugar, it may end up being super sweet.
My wifey ordered with ¼ sugar and I left mine regular sugar. Others in my group ordered: 1 mango slush with boba, and 1 milk tea slush. My God daughter shared my drink with me.
The drink was good. If you’ve never had chamango, it’s a blended mango drink that is a mixture of sweet and spicy. The flavors work if you like sweet and spicy. I probably could have went ½ or ¾ sugar and it would have been fine.
My wife liked her drink. I thought it was alright, but prefer a little more sweetness. The others in the group liked their drinks.
Service was great. Our drinks came out quickly. Prices were pretty good too. Place has a lot of seating. There is plenty of parking in this shopping center.
Place is not close to where I live, but I wouldn’t mind driving out here if I plan on eating in Mira Mesa area. We are fans of this place.
Next time I plan on trying: lychee slush with boba (thanks Maritess) and the popcorn chicken.

I ordered the new drink, Chamango, which I did not enjoy, but that’s personal preference. Its mango smoothie with swirls of that Mexican tamarind-​chile candy. The mango smoothie seems to be made from mango syrup/​purée which was too sweet for my liking, but there were some pieces of fresh mango on top which made the drink nice though they are too big to suck up the boba straw. Thry also give you a candy straw coated in additional lucas candy. Fun drink idea but I didn’t like it. My boyfriend enjoyed the drink but didn’t finish his either.
Great enthusiastic customer service on Sunday ⁶⁄₂₈ around 3pm.

A group of friends and I went to Bobalicious in Mira Mesa after a savory lunch, and though it wasn’t exceptionally hot outside, this treat was super refreshing and it really hit the spot.
I’m not too adventurous when it comes to boba, and I still actually prefer my teas sans boba. But I would definitely revisit this spot if I’m ever in the area because I felt that the milk tea here was especially smooth and sweet. Also, service was spot on – even though there were people ordering and sitting in the café, our drinks were ready really quickly so we could be on our way in no time.
Here’s what my friends and I ordered:
«Milk Tea»: This is pretty much my go-​to from any boba or tea place just because it tends to be a safe option. I really enjoyed the milk tea from this place in particular because it felt that it was especially smooth and silky; I finished my drink so quickly! I went with my usual and ordered my tea without the boba, but I didn’t really feel like spending extra time chewing those tapioca balls and just wanted to enjoy my cool drink instead.
«Thai Tea»: This is the drink one of my friends got, but I got to try some of his. I think the color of Thai tea always repulses me (it’s orange) but the flavor is always really good once I start sipping it. I don’t feel like this tea is as sweet as my milk tea – and my friend always gets his with boba – but I enjoyed what I tasted of it anyway and would recommend it if you want something refreshing, but not as sweet as some of the other tea options.
«Chocolate» Drinks: There are so many drink flavors to choose from on the Bobalicious menu; it was a bit overwhelming during my first visit. But, since I do love chocolate, I would want to try some kind of chocolate drink from here at some point – whether it’s hot or cold – just to see what it tastes like.
«Iced Coffee»: I definitely prefer iced coffee to hot coffee when the weather is warm outside, so I was contemplating ordering this, but I decided to save trying the iced coffee on another visit. However, based on my experience with the milk tea, I would definitely want to try this drink and I’m pretty sure I would enjoy it.
«Vietnamese Coffee»: Our other friend ordered the same milk tea as me, but she said the «Vietnamese Coffee» from here was really good as well. I would want to try the iced version of this drink sometime, since my experiences with Vietnamese coffee have always been really refreshing and the taste isn’t too strong.
«Cappuccino Milk Tea»: I really enjoyed the milk tea at this place, so I would definitely want to try this cappuccino version at some point. I’m not sure if it would taste really different – except for having a stronger coffee flavor – so if I’m in need of more caffeine, I know which drink I would order.

If your hankering for Boba Tea and your in the area this place will have pretty much any flavor or style of tea you can think of.
Group style seating with couches tables and high tops that make for a great place to study or meet up with friends.
The time I came here they served up four different types of jelly or boba. Also they had a few speciality slush drinks that’s looked a little crazy. Personally I tried the basic Thai Milk Tea with boba. Wasn’t to bad but nothing outstanding.
Overall
Drink: 3 – 5
Food: 3 – 5
Service: 3 – 5
Coming back: yes

I like this little trendy Boba shop. They play hip modern music, most of the crowd is mostly youngsters, and they make some great drinks. I wanted a Royal Milk Tea made form Earl Grey Tea, but they do not make it, so I settled for their iced coffee, which I liked very much.
The coffee was great where the stronger coffee settled at the bottom and the top had a light dairy cream. It was served with ice of course and sealed with a plastic lid. After I shook it up a bit, the coffee had a good balance between robust coffee to mild sweet cream which made the coffee enjoyable to drink. It probably carried a little more ice than it needed, so I need to remember to ask them to take it easy on the ice.
The young lady who took my order was simply adorable and knew the menu very well. I had the opportunity to speak with the girl who made my iced coffee and she was very nice and informative. They offer free WiFi but you have to ask for the password and be a paying customer. They do play their music loud so keep that in mind. They also provide snack foods such as fried chicken pieces and corn dogs.
Iced Coffee, good stuff…
