    Bubble tea here is more on the milky or creamy side. Still tasty though! I usually get the regular milk tea with pearls. The sizes are big and the prices are pretty low for the size you're getting.

    Peach milk tea with small boba is amazing, boba pearls are wildly inconsistent in hardness though. Fried chicken and fried yam & sweet potato are both decent, fried cuttlefish is great.

    My favorite boba milk tea. The place is small but I always find an empty table. Reasonably priced.

    The fried chicken in a bag is so good. I like it even more than their bubble teas.

    Honey and Earl Grey Milk Teas with (regular or small) pearls are my favorites. Food isn't bad but there are a bunch of great places around that are much better so go to one of them!

    Verde's crema is nothing to write home about. Look elsewhere if you want a really good crema and are willing to travel.

    If you're looking for actual taro for your taro milktea or taro slush then look elsewhere since they use the standard powder stuff.

    Ask for no additional sugar syrup if you don't want a super sweet drink (it will still be pretty sweet though!)

    Try asking for small pearls, they have them sometimes and they're an interesting variation.

    They use powdered milk here so it's extra frothy. Try the Pearl Green Milk Tea. If you order "for here" they might give you a glass mug that's bigger.
