First of all, there aren't many places you can find boba-tea so we're already fortunate they're here! Second, you won't find friendlier people that run the store. Third, the drinks are great! Go enjoy the drinks and feel good about supporting our community.

Their stay woke milkshakes by the best. We came in with eight children and they patiently served us all. If I'm ever in the area again I will stop by.

Super delicious boba and great people and service! I'm a bit of a boba obsessive and love that they have something different from the usual tapioca balls (which I also love but variety is always fun). The boba reminds me of raindrop "cake". Very chewy and fresh. Tea was great too. I had the classic with almond milk. Will definitely be stopping again. If you love boba and especially if you are lgbtqia+, I'd really recommend you give it a try.

Its nice what this family is doing for a community that probably has no idea what boba is, but this has got to be the worst boba I have ever had. Also, the most expensive. This place is more expensive than downtown Seattle and San Francisco. There was so much sugar we couldn't finish our smalls. I'm glad other people are liking it. but it couldn't be farther from traditional tasting. The black boba is so not normal.

Glad there are options for drinks and food around town now (have been coming to Topsail for decades) but this one was a bust. I give 3 stars because it was clean, people were nice, the fruit drink was acceptable and dip n dots was nice. But the namesake of the shop- Boba, was not good at all. They do not serve tapioca boba. They are very clear about this once you arrive. They serve alternatives that are not as satisfying or chewy or even tasty (personal opinion, clearly). I’m thankful they had milk alternatives but the tea itself tasted like 90% water, 10% milk, 0% flavor or tea. Other members of our group also had bad experiences with their “boba”/milk tea. The cost is outrageous as well. I really hope the residents don’t have to pay these tourist prices. Edit: thanks for you reply! My displeasure of the boba is more about the watery nature of my drink and not the unusual type of boba (I love agar, red bean, and other strange additions in drinks). Maybe the worker was overwhelmed or not doing their best that day, maybe the milk alternative was almost out and water was added to get more life, or maybe it wasn’t shaken and I got all water. Would like to give it another try before I leave. I love that you are an inclusive and LGBTQ+ supporting company, and I want to support more businesses like yours. Again, everything besides the Boba tea was great. Hopefully our watery boba was a fluke. I’ll give an updated review after trying it again. ✌🏻 Oh, also- price wise where we are from, and every where I’ve traveled, a boba tea runs ~3-5$. I am almost certain we were charged 8$ for ours here but I could be totally wrong as I can’t find the prices listed online. If I’m totally wrong about the price of the boba I need to figure out how our order ended up being sooo dang expensive for 3 people getting 2 bobas, 1 fruit drink, and 1 small dipndots.

This is a wonderful family owned and operated place for boba tea and other great drinks! My girls had to stop in twice while we were vacationing here. The staff are some of the kindest people I’ve met. Wonderful smiles and great conversation along with some really great drinks!

It was okay, but the pics on Google aren't accurate, and the webpage doesn't accurately reflect what they have. They no longer offer scooped ice cream which was what we came for, nor do they offer the mocktails pictured. It is basically a few milkshakes and then boba teas, as well as dippin' dots. I liked my boba tea, but the rest of our crew left with nothing.

Fantastic refreshing treats. The boba was great— get the Mojito Mint with dragonfruit boba bubbles. 10/10! The couple that runs the place was super nice and keep a nice clean little shop.

Stopped on our way out of town. Great service. Fabulous flavors, and options. Clean, bright and inviting. My husband asked about food on our route home and we got amazing suggestions along our route. Definitely going to make a point to come back on next trip down.

The staff is fantastic! You can tell they truly care and they really love what they do. My kids enjoyed their shakes but I enjoyed mine even more! I ordered a coffee shake, hands down it was the best coffee shake I have ever had. It actually tasted like real coffee and was well balanced on sweetness. New favorite ice cream shop - we will be back!!!!
