Bobapop Tea - Garden Grove

The staff were friendly, well-informed, and exceptionally accommodating. They took the time to address all my questions and customized my order to suit my tastes. When compared to other boba shops in Garden Grove, I found their tea to have a far superior flavor. I especially loved the wonderful aroma of their milk tea, which had a lovely floral note. I can’t wait to return and try more items from their menu.

The staff was incredibly rude. A girl and a boy who were working there pointed at me and insisted on knowing the size of the boba I ordered without even bothering to introduce themselves. Even after I told him twice, he persisted in asking about the boba size, sugar level, and toppings repeatedly. It was difficult to understand what they were saying, which made the whole experience quite confusing for me.

We might have picked an off day for our visit (Saturday, April 15th) because our drinks didn't live up to the high expectations set by previous reviews. I ordered my usual jasmine green milk tea with 25-30% sugar and boba, but it was overwhelmingly sweet, tasting as if it had nearly 100% sugar. The tea flavor was barely detectable; it was far too milky and left a powdery aftertaste. The classic house drink was similarly disappointing. Although the boba had a chewy texture, it felt slightly undercooked in the center. I truly wanted to enjoy it, but I could only manage a few sips before I had to discard the rest. Sadly, this experience deserves only 1 star. On a positive note, the passion fruit drink with boba was decent—nothing exceptional—so I’d rate it 3 stars.

The staff were exceptionally accommodating, and the drinks were amazing. I particularly enjoyed my Japanese brown rice tea with 30% sugar.

The service is quick, making it a perfect place to stop for a drink when you’re on the move. “I’m not strange, I’m one of a kind.”
