Mr Wish - South Philly

Still my favorite boba place in the world (lol even against places I've been in Cali)Oolong milk tea (30% sugar, no ice) large $6.25 - strong tea flavor. Not just soft and milk.3Q oolong soft serve ice cream $6.50 - really good flavor and texture this time. Texture is hit or miss though. Sometimes it can be too grainy or icy

My favorite drink is their Snow strawberry! So delicious if it wasn't fixed sugar and is less sweet. The boba is soft and delicious. The interior is also very clean and lovely. You can even play games inside the store which was super fun to do with my family.

Upon entering, the inside is cute and simple. There's some indoor seating, but what stuck out to me was the option of some board games. I love little additions like that, makes it seem like a fun place to come with a friend or two!For my drink, I got a large colorful fruit tea and it's one of the best fruit teas I've had! Plenty of real fruit cut up inside, super flavourful, sweet and sour, it was super refreshing, filling, and good. I think there may have been grapefruit or another kinda-bitter fruit in the tea which is my only complaint, but that's a little personal preference and certainly didn't stop me from drinking it.I for sure recommend!

Let me preface by saying that when I rate bubble tea places, I usually compare them in relation to Kung Fu Tea because Kung Fu Tea's bubble tea isn't the best but it isn't the worst. It's not my go to spot it's always a safe option when that boba craving hits. And they have a good variety when it comes to milky and fruiter options. For additional context, I usually prefer fruit teas and adjust the sugar level (typically one level below 100% sweetness).After trying a handful of their drinks, I would rank Mr.Wish as being exponentially better than Kung Fu Tea. Mr. Wish is one of my favorite places to get bubble tea in Philly. They use fresh fruit in their drinks and you can really taste the difference whenever you order any of their fruit teas or smoothies. The tapioca pearls are also the best because they are the perfect chewiness and have the perfect amount of sweetness. Additionally, I like that the drinks, even at regular sugar levels are not that sweet. My rule of thumb is to adjust the sugar level to 60% if the fruit in the fruit tea is naturally sweet (i.e. mangos, lychee, peach, etc.) or if it is a milk tea. Otherwise, the regular sugar level is perfect, especially for the fruit teas, because you don't want the drink to taste diluted or too tart. Drink Ordered:* worth trying- [Orange Grapefruit Fiber Jelly Tea with 60% Sugar*]: 60% sugar level is an acceptable level of sweetness but I think it would taste just as good if you didn't adjust the sugar level. The drink is very refreshing and I like all the toppings in the drink (basil seeds, lychee jelly, and aiyu jelly).- [3Q Milk Tea with 60% Sugar*]: Perfect sugar level. If you like milk teas, I would recommend this. The milk teas at Mr.Wish are creamier than your typical milk tea. The 3Q toppings are lychee jelly, pearls, and pudding. - [Orange Green Tea with Aloe Vera and 60% Sugar*]: The sugar level was perfect. Refreshing but just sweet enough that you could appreciate the orange flavor with an equally refreshing topping.- [Snowy Pink]: Blended milk with a strawberry puree. The blended milk tasted like icy milk and the strawberry puree was a bit too sweet. - [Mango Smoothie with Pearls and 60% Sugar*]: Perfect to enjoy on a hot day. The pearls surprisingly do not harden in this drink. - [Grapefruit Green Tea*]: I like how refreshing this drink is. - [Peach Tea w. Fresh Pulp with Pearls and 60% Sugar*]: This is a really juicy drink. I like the combination of the peach chunks and the pearls. - [Kumquat Lemon Fiber Jelly Tea*]: Compared to the Orange Grapefruit Fiber Jelly Tea, this drink is more sour but still very good. - [Apple & Lemon Babo*]: I'm usually not a fan of drinks with sparkling water/soda because I don't like the carbonation but I thought this was quite good. I barely tasted any carbonation. I didn't think the regular sugar level was too sweet. You can't add toppings to this drink. - [Apple Tea w. Fresh Pulp with 60% Sugar]: I thought the drink was alright but the flavor was very similar to the Peach Tea w. Fresh Pulp but the Peach Tea is better because I like the chunks of peach in that drink. - [Tieguanyin (Oolong) Soft Serve w Brown Sugar 3Q*]: If you like tea, I would highly recommend this. The soft serve has a slight earthy flavor but it pairs really well with the brown sugar toppings for the right amount of sweetness. - [Wish Waffle Cake*]: When they used to have the flavor, I thought the matcha flavor was the best. I would recommend eating these as soon as you get them, otherwise, the waffle cake gets a bit soggy the longer you wait. Would I go back? : Without a doubt. The nice thing about Mr.Wish is that all of the locations have been pretty consistent in the quality of their drinks. In PA, I've been to 7 of their locations and they have all been equally good.

Great oolong soft serve. First two times it was grainy. But this time it was a great texture.

Mr. Wish is my favorite chain for tea/boba. Their regular milk tea is the best compared to anywhere else. It's the perfect ratio of tea (strong) and milk. They soak the tapioca pearls in a sweet syrup, so I'm perfectly content with getting the pearl milk tea with no sugar (you can customize the sugar level and the amount of ice for almost any drink on the menu). The tapioca often taste fresh and not too hard or mushy. The other drinks on the menu are great too with many fresh fruit tea options instead of the powdered stuff at other shops. Customer service isn't always consistent but not horrible. I don't bother going anywhere else in Philly anymore since the quality is pretty consistent here.

Drinks are great, silky and rich. I recommend the Tiger Milk Tea w/ Bubble & the Oolong Milk Tea w/ Bubble.

Delicious!!! First time trying this and it was so refreshing without being too sweet! All the flavors looked so good and I can't wait to go back and try more.

My favorite place to go for milk tea. I like all their drinks, especially the red bean pudding. Their flavors are real not artificial. They use real fruits and real teas, and their bobas are made fresh everyday. I also like how you can adjust the sugar levels here. Not every boba places offers that option. Highly recommended if you like boba milk tea or fruit teas.
