By far my favorite and the best boba place in SF. Beats boba guys for me! Try it and judge it by yourself. I tried it, got back and bought 5 more.

My order : Freshly brewed tea, rose oolong sea salt cheese creama (C2); Topping - lychee jelly. No ice, light sweet (30%). Superb! Cute place in Parkside of SF that opened 5 mos ago. Excellent service, clean space.

A good little spot for boba! The staff was friendly and even made a custom drink. The boba balls were good and the flavors were good too!

I was walking around the sunset neighborhood today, weather was very nice. Suddenly I started craving something to drink and I know foam was nearby. Been here a few times and I got their rose oolong today. The staff helped me pick it but I didn’t like it too much. But I have had other boba here and I’ve loved those so do check them out. They’re also comparatively cheap. The boba is light and tastes just right. Do check them out! Also has a nice view of the ocean right outside so it’ll be cute to bring your date here and walk around this nice and peaceful neighborhood which has some incredible views if you go during sunset!!

Awesome boba. Must try to popping boba with your drink. We had the tarp milk tea and strawberry fruit drinks. Easy self ordering. Great service. Able to use wifi to work. Parking isn’t easy in this area.

This is a very very unique milk tea shop. It can print the picture on top of your milk tea as a milk cover. The quality of the picture is very good! You should be expecting that you can see that clearly. The shop said that the material they used is FDA approved so I trust them. The process is very simple, you connect to their wifi, scan the QR code, upload the picture from your local phone, then it is done. Quick and easy.
