Neighborhood Bubble Tea & Coffee

I saw this place last time I had to take a flight out of this weird terminal part, but didn't have time to get one. I did this time! It's located in the D21+ terminals (which if you're here, you're going to take a bus to the plane, fyi. I didn't know that last time), which is luckily not after D19, it's actually just across from D5.I ordered the Biko pandan with boba, total comes out to $9.80. the drink came out strongly layered (boba, sesame/tea, cream), personal opinion about whether or not it looks nice heh. Sadly despite using coconut milk, the drink is not dairy free because the pandan cream is milk based. I'd recommend opening the lid to mix the drink entirely. Without doing that, the drink tasted nothing of pandan (the cream is pretty light anyway), and the sesame tasted burnt. Together, the burned edge is taken off (although in my opinion still not much pandan, but more a creamy sesame flavor). There's still an odd sour note in my drink somewhere, and I'm wondering if the black tea they use has citrus notes or something- whatever it is, it's not a plus.Also disappointingly the boba was flavorless, so I wouldn't bother adding it. (The chew is dece though, so if you want to chew plastic go for it.)The women running the shop were friendly enough and patient, and my drink did come out quite quickly. (That said, I'm also the only one here, so that probably helps.)Overall, I probably wouldn't buy here again any time too soon, mostly due to the price and my personal distaste for the drink (and the fact that I want milkless milk teas), but if you're in the area, extremely desperate for boba, or standards for boba are less tea aligned and more fun drink inspired, or you want like, actual coffee/food, this place is a quick stop that's just hidden enough to not get too much traffic.

We specifically came here because we saw on tiktok the Asian latte flavors. And they have a lot! Pandan, ube, black sesame, etc. we ended up getting the black sesame latte and the pandan latte. One thing to note is that the cream definitely does not have milk alternatives - which sucks for a lactose intolerant person like me. BUT you can adjust the amount of cream like I did. The black sesame came out layered and looked nice - the cream foam isn't very cheesy like it is in other boba shops - for example cheese foam that boba shops have - more of a whipped texture and cream flavor which is more subtle but complements the coffee flavor well! For the pandan latte- I couldn't taste the pandan as much - maybe because I asked for less cream and more alternative milk. I think next time I would ask for more pandan syrup for sure to get that flavor. Overall, vibes were peaceful. This place is a bit more hidden, going down a hall at the D5 gate, but it opens up to a lot of open seating, tables, and obviously that classic jazzy airplane music!

I was pleasantly surprised to see a boba spot inside the Sea-Tac airport. It is located by the stairs at the Gate D area. I got the Turon Turon and Ube Latte. I liked the Ube Latte, but mix the Turon Turon well, otherwise the syrup is at the bottom and it becomes overwhelming.

Look, it's awesome they have a boba place in the airport. I sometimes want a boba fix and obviously you can't bring one from the outside so you rely on places like this. BUT, first off, it's tucked far away right before you go down the stairs for Gates D21 and D26. So it's not close. Second, the drinks are SUPER sweet. I got the Thai green iced tea so I knew it would be sweet. And maybe that was my mistake because I don't love sweet drinks so maybe this is normal but it was nearly undrinkable. Also, the boba is overcooked so it has that smushy texture when something is basically collapsing in your mouth. Not great. The people are nice and service was quick but I think I'll just deal with it if I ever have a hankering for boba in the airport.

It is great that now I can get boba tea even at the airport. This place is by D21 gate so it is secluded from crowdiness, and you can actually enjoy some peace and quiet.The customer service was good. I ordered a regular milk tea and it came out fast as well. The tea itself was not really good. Very watery and not an enough aroma and taste. Price is not bad for an airport in Seattle area. If they can make the tea quality bit better, this could be a really cool place.

Small kiosk located in the D terminal between D21 - 26. There wasn't a line, but the service was not super fast. The order was accurate, and perhaps this barista was relatively inexperienced at making specialty drinks fast. It's the only food and drink place in the newer gates that flyers now board transit busses and go to an alternate location for departure at SeaTac Airport.

Lovely kiosk tucked away on your way down to D21-D26! They have a plethora of teas, boba and coffee. I have been missing Calamansi after visiting the Philippines so I was thrilled to see they had calamansi iced tea at Neighborhoods. Bacon croissant was really good too! They kept the croissants in a heated container in the front so it was super quick to get food/drinks before heading to my gate.

The service was so friendly however the bubble tea left a lot to be desired. As I'm deathly allergic to passion fruit the fact that all the flavored teas had that in there was a disappointment. There's not a lot of room for customization like there normally is with boba. I ended up getting a flavored water with boba add ins but it was underwhelming.I wish I stopped at Starbucks or Stumptown before heading into the terminal.

Neighborhood Bubble Tea & Coffee was such a wonderful addition to Seatac airport. I loved that they opened early (6am!!) so you can grab something from there to satisfy your morning wakeup rituals!I also particularly loved that they also offered some Asian flair to their menu items as well. For example, you can have ube or pandan as part of the drink flavors..and add things like boba or grass jelly as toppings for your drink. But, hey, if you like plain coffee, you can get that as well. In addition, they had some small selection of bakery (in this case though I got their musubi, which was a good size that satisfied me enough for the morning!).My flight actually was located completely different areas of the airport..but because I was so early at the airport..I purposely walked over to this area that they were in (Gate D20-28) to get their drink/snack! The place wasn't so busy (probably because it was somewhat hidden in a corner)..but you'll be pleasantly surprised like I did with their drink+asian-flaired snacks they offered.I definitely plan on stopping by here again the next time I find myself in SEATAC! Thanks neighborhood!

Not your typical airport service! The girls here are so sweet, breakfast sandwich and Thai iced tea were delicious. Thanks for making my morning
