Boba Tea Lab

The sea salt ube milk tea is ahhhmazing! I highly recommend if you're into ube. I added boba and pudding and it was so delicious. I requested for 50% sweet and regular ice and it was a match made in heaven. Boba Tea Lab is located in the great wall shopping plaza, right across from Mama Dough. There is a tablet next to the register, which I think is a good idea when they only have one person working at the moment. You can order your drinks the way you want them, and the person behind the counter will have it out for you as quickly as they can. They have lots of specialty drinks with cool names, plus traditional boba flavors. Worth a try!

I got an Ube Boba and my husband had a jasmine smoothie boba. I give this place a 4 star because the ube was absolutely delicious. The creamy and not overly sweet taste of ube mixed as a velvety addition to your traditional boba. They ask you how sweet you want it. The only downside is that you can't just ask for any drink to be made into a smoothie. My husband loves true green tea, not the flavored green powder and I think because there's milk in it, they won't blend it. No big deal because he loved the one he got. If you're looking for a place to sit, this isn't the place. There's a hard wooden bench and that's about it. The staff is friendly and kind. Willing to explain the different types of drinks they have. Another bonus is that they have some fried snack foods that you can get if you're just looking for a very light meal.

Not bad! I got the popcorn chicken ($6.50) and strawberry creama ($5.50) drink. I ordered online.The popcorn chicken was the Taiwanese style kind, where it's not a thick flour coating on the outside but cornstarch. I got the no spicy version (there's spicy and very spicy too) but I should've gotten spicy. It honestly lacked flavor and salt and I thought it'd come with at least a ketchup packet but nope. If they were gonna do the Taiwanese style popcorn chicken, it would've been nice to get some Thai basil in there as well. It was very hot and juicy and freshly fried so that was good.As for the drink, it wasn't too sweet and you could taste the green tea. The cheese foam made it taste like a strawberry yogurt drink. We didn't get a topping (extra 50 cents if you do) but I think lychee jelly would've been good. I'd come back but only for the drinks

I was supposed to grab boba for my friend and I but ended up asking my friend to get it for us LOL. Luckily this place was nearby for him to put up the drinks!It's located next to Bambu in the Great Wall Mall in Kent. There's a parking lot with ample stalls that won't ever be a problem. I got the Life is Peachy which contained butterfly pea and peach syrup. Super different compared to what I usually get. The drink looked beautiful! And it tasted even better. The butterfly pea wasn't too sweet so the peach syrup mixed with it gave it a sweeter kick. The balance was delicious! My friend got the Strawberry Fresh Milk Tea which was suuuper sweet. There was a lot of strawberry syrup that didn't really balance out nicely with the drink itself.Great place to check out if you want some unique flavors that you don't really see elsewhere!

I was excited to see that DIY Tea Lab/Boba Tea Lab had a sea salt ube milk tea, which I hadn't tried before when visiting a DIY Tea Lab. And when I saw that Boba Tea Lab was the same company/menu, I had to give it a shot while in the area. Sadly, my ube dreams fell short after visiting Boba Tea Lab. Located in the Great Wall Mall, Boba Tea Lab is one of the retailers here in Kent. I visited on a Saturday in the late afternoon and the staff couldn't be more bored to work there. They were chatting with each other even when I was standing at the counter waiting to order. I finally just had to say that I was ready to order, which they looked annoyed having to stop talking and help me. Even when I got my order and thanked them, they didn't acknowledge me and kept chatting with one another. Such friendly customer service and a welcoming environment, geez. Anyway, the sea salt ube milk tea was a bust. I love all things ube, so liked that it had ube with this drink, but the milk tea was sooo milky. There was hardly any tea in it, so it tasted like I was drinking ube-flavored milk. And then when I drank all the ube, it tasted like milk. Bleh! I eventually had to just toss out most of the drink. Unfortunately, this wasn't what I was anticipating. I can't say I'd visit again after the unfriendly employees and milky tea. Maybe I'll have better luck at the DIY Tea Lab locations.

good drink, just way too sweet even at 50%. will try less sugar next time. the coffee black tea that my friend got however was perfect at 25% sweetness.

Ok so this place is becoming my goto for......POPCORN CHICKEN!! I mean $6 for moist, crunchy and hot popcorn chicken?!?! You can't beat that! Also I'm obsessed with the mango smoothie with cheese foam topping. When I first came here I thought this place is just ok but I admit I WAS WRONG. Wrong wrong wrong. I've slowly become dependent on my mango smoothies and popcorn chicken combo as my way of dealing with daily pandemic life. Spend $6 try the chicken, get spicy if you wanna burn and question your life. Get not spicy if you've accepted the outcome and just wanna lay in calm tranquility haha. Dude just do it.

This is a good bubble tea place. Someone said it's a sister store of the Tea Lab in Newcastle, but in my opinion, it's way much better than the one in Newcastle.The drinks are good. I normally order 75% of sugar, which is just the right sweetness for me. The staff are very friendly and nice. Once my son dropped his drink right after he walked out of the store. The store employee immediately gave him another drink. Very good service!They also sell Taiwanese popcorn chicken. It's so good! I always buy at least 2 packs of Taiwanese popcorn chicken whenever I visit. I highly recommend their Taiwanese popcorn chicken along with their bubble tea.

Always excited to try out new boba places. There are multiple places in Great Wall in Kent and my friends and I chose to try Boba Tea Lab. I ordered the Cupid tea and it was pretty good. The syrup wasn't too overbearing and the drink overall tasted refreshing. Each drink comes with a free topping too, and most places don't do that so that was a nice surprise. The employees were nice too. My group came in super last minute (and I felt terrible for doing that) but they still served us with great customer service.

Service was quick. This is an order for take out shop; there are no chairs/ tables etc but you can sit in the mall benches.So happy they got the new menu since I'm not a big fan of fruity flavored tea so my options have been limited.The ube latte is creamy and yummy but a little bit too sweet as I drink more. I got the full sugar; next time definitely going to get 75% sugar Pudding was an additional 75 cent.
