The Alley - Cedar Park

To start off, I don't like to drink too much milk tea(what kind of Asian am I??!?) but I do like regular tea drinks. Especially the black tea here. The tea was floral and wasn't too sweet for me. Definitely top of my list for black tea in Austin and surrounding. Highly recommend getting this tea, if you like regular tea. The interior is good. There isn't too much seating but the place is nice and big. So you get space to move around. They have anime cross promotions if you're into thatYou can order your drink at the cashier or the machine. And the drink comes pretty fast. I'll come back here when I'm in the neighborhood.

As I walked into the store, I fell for their modern and minimalist decor and love the fact that they also have a kiosk to take orders!We have been here a few times and the drinks were consistent which is a plus. Staff are okay as we always put our order through the kiosk so didn't really have to interact with them much. We tried their milktea with pearls, Royal No. 9 milk tea in a can, taro brown sugar deerioca, Ube taro brown sugar deerioca so far and they were all delicious. The balance between the strength of tea and milk is perfect and their pearls have the right amount of chew yet are still soft. The Ube taro brown sugar deerioca is my favorite as it tastes like a Thai dessert in a cup (so you know it's sweet), instead of using a spoon to eat, you just straight-up suck it from the straw...how convenient We had a chance to try their croffles and boy... I'm addicted! I went back to get more the following weekend By the way, you have to eat it right away for it to be good (crispy exterior and soft with some pull of a croissant texture inside) otherwise if the cream on top melts, the croffle itself gets soggy. The only complaint I have was, they have 3 different flavors but all of them taste the same which is cream brûlée! I'm not sure it was a one time-off thing or not since the advertising photos of each flavor shows the color of the cream match each flavor. But the cream on all three flavors of my croffles looked the same with just some sprinkles of chocolate and matcha on them. Just a sprinkle of matcha on top of the cream doesn't make it matcha flavor or matcha forward at all, and the same goes for the chocolate flavor.All in all, I'm a return customer and happy with their drinks & food.

I love that there is a high quality boba option in Cedar Park! I love their milk and fruit teas. Service is quick and they have an option to order through a kiosk. Plenty of seating.

Service was great and the cashier was very friendly. Got my boba fix. Highly recommend

The Alley has several reserved parking spots right in front of the store!The front window and inside is clean, simple, and minimal. Inside there are many SpyxFamily posters and of course deer!We ordered at the little kiosk, which has about half of the pictures of the items. It was easy to place the order. The croffle was made to order and so very delicious!!! The Okinawa tea we ordered was very delicious as well. Staff were polite and friendly. I will be back to try out the other two croffle flavors and some more of the drinks!

Yes yes and yes I got the Ube Brown Sugar Deerioca Creme Brulee Milk Boba ($0.70) * Crystal Boba ($0.95) * Extra Boba ($0.80) * No Ice * Organic Milk * Slight SugarAbsolutely amazing

This famous boba shop has opened in the Austin area! I had the Ube Brown Sugar Deerioca Creme Brulee Milk, which comes with brown sugar boba. The milk options were dairy, oat, and soy. I opted for the soy milk. This drink was phenomenal! The flavours mixed so well together. I got it with no sugar, which was perfect as the drink is naturally very sweet. My friend, however, tragically got a drink that neither of us liked. She got the Matcha Purple Rice Yogurt, which comes with green tea jelly. This drink was so sour and unpleasant. The sourness came from the yogurt, which did not blend well with the bitterness of the purple rice and grass jelly. The yogurt tasted like non-fat plain Greek yogurt. She got it with less sugar (50%), and we couldn't taste any sweetness at all. We came here to study on a Sunday afternoon, and luckily it wasn't very busy. There is wifi, and we were able to get two small tables. The booth side bench was unnaturally high for the short table, so it was impossible to sit without being hunched over the table.

Soft opening today. Grand opening on Saturday. So glad they're here in Cedar Park now!!! We can get our fix faster than waiting to drive far or fly to a different city! First time we had them was in Honolulu then in Paris, France. We are so lucky to have this here in Cedar Park! We got their brown sugar Deerioca creme brûlée milk and ube taro brown sugar Deerioca milk drinks in the brown sugar deerioca menu. These are tealess & so yummy! Will come back for more tea based drinks soon. They will gradually have everything on the menu as the days progress so come Saturday- you can get everything on their menu. Welcome to CP!

Decided to visit this boba shop one evening to give it a try. Being their first week, all orders were processed through their self service machine, unless you were among the first 100 to sign up on their website before their soft opening and had a coupon.Inside there are multiple tables to hang out and relax with your friends and family or to just study. The drinks are priced around 8-9 dollars before tax and any additional toppings. Opted for the Snow Strawberry Smoothie, although it turned out more like juice with a milk cap on top rather than a traditional smoothie. This deviation from expectations left me somewhat disappointed, especially considering the discrepancy in the name compared to other locations I've visited.Additionally, I noticed they charge a 3% fee for credit card payments, which seems odd given that they don't accept cash. Overall, while it's another boba option in the area, I'll likely choose other establishments before returning to this one.

Amazing place, Very Clean, and very well organized. I love the different types of drinks you can get. The Service is always friendly and invaluable.
