An absolute gem with a great location.It's always great when Southeast residents can get food without having to cross the highway. I'll be honest, though, that usually comes with some compromise. That is not the case here.This is a top-notch Boba spot with a super-friendly staff and reasonable prices. Would come here again and will recommend to anyone even remotely curious about Boba. Boba not your thing? Go for the teas, slushes, or smoothies. Let them earn your business - you won't be disappointed!

This is a clean and minimal boba place in a small area with easy parking. When we stopped by, there wasn't anybody in, so we tried the coconut taro milk tea with boba and the black milk tea with boba. The boba was some of the best-textured boba that I've had. The coconut was powerful in the taro milk tea (the taro could have been more pronounced) but it was a delicious drink nonetheless. The bobarista put in the perfect amount of light ice as requested and the drinks were the perfect sweetness at 50% for my taste. If I'm in the area I'd stop by again for a little boba milk tea treat.

The boba tea is awesome! I had a taro milk boba tea and my daughter had the black/milk tea with boba. I later wished I had ordered my husband's pick which was the Mango Lychee Smoothie with boba!! I'm so glad its close to home. Its designed really cute inside, as well. The service was great!

If you live in Southeast Austin, you already know as soon as a new business enters the ring, you're hoping it'll be something worthwhile. As far as bubble teas go, there aren't many that's 1) below the river 2) actually really good 3) not a chain. I'm big on supporting local, small businesses, so when I found out there would be a bubble teashop less than 10 mins away from my house, I anxiously waited. It's been three weeks since this business has opened and I can proudly testify, ADD THIS ONE TO YOUR LIST! Tea Cup Boba House is owned by a sweet and shy Cambodian couple who work the front and currently have no other employees. If it gets busy, be patient!Tea Cup Boba House offers a variety of teas and unique sinkers to the southeast Austin area. If you aren't a tea fan, it may not be your cup of tea (lol). However, for me, it's what I enjoyed the most. I love how strong the teas are! The cream to tea ratio is perfectly balanced, and if you add on the bobas, they add a nice touch to the drink. The bobas are tender and lightly sweetened.The decor here is clean with a modern bohemian touch, however, there isn't much seating. Definitely order and take away.

I've been here half a dozen times in the past month or so. It's fantastic every time. I didn't actually like tapioca boba pearls before until I tried them here. Now I look forward to getting them as often as possible. Theyre softer and sweeter and more pleasant than a lot of other local boba shops. Other shops have more flavor options but I'll choose here every time. There seems to be just one guy working here alone and he's polite and fast. I love that they're open till 9pm! Highly recommend.

Super simple and cute Boba place!They have a few games available to play while you wait for your drink.I ordered the Taro Coconut milk Tea at 50% sweetness and it was the perfect balance! We also order a Hot Matcha at 25% sweetness that hit the spot for this cold weather! Definitely check this place out! We usually go by Ranch 99 for boba but we're glad we found something closer to the house just as good Enjoy! The service was nice and the drinks were delicious.

I grabbed a mango green tea with strawberry popping boba. It was delicious and was more sugar customizable than the chains. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly and fast. The seating area although small wasn't too loud and quite relaxing.
