Boba King: Reviews & Ratings

This is hands down the best boba shop I have ever been to. The boba is soooo chewy and delicious. I absolutely love how the warm boba and cold milk tea mix in your mouth like a warm apple pie with a scoop of ice cream. The atmosphere is super cozy and the little ears on the cups are such a cute detail. The only downside I can possibly think of is if you come in right before closing they might be out of Boba but even then their milk tea is fantastic. Everywhere I go I get just a taro milk tea with Boba and this is the best one I've ever had. With the Marshmallow foam on to of the drinks and hand made tapioca pearls they really live up to the title of premium boba.

Boba king is a good boba stop near Drexel's campus. Their drinks aren't cheap but are about on par with other boba places (yi fang is the next closest and is way more expensive). They also offer sweet snacks like croffles which I've never tried but always look good. None of the drinks come with tapioca or any other topping which some other reviews were upset about. However, I've found that this is standard for most boba places, and if not, the drinks with boba are marked up to compensate. There's a nice seating area upstairs to work or chat with friends and it's decorated to be very instagramable if you're looking for cute cafe pics.

Lovely boba shop!!! The service was quick and easy. The store is super super adorable! And the drinks were good! The boba was a bit hard for me though.

Really cute little shop with lots of Boba options. I got the Mango Tango with strawberry puree and it was delicious! They use real fruit as I could tell by all of the fruit chunks in my cup! Each one is made fresh. You just order on the touch screen and your order will be done in minutes. A lot of people came in for the banana pudding -- I didn't try it this time but I might have to get it next time I'm in town.

Such a cute spot! It's got flowers and cute lights with a 2nd floor where you can sit, study, or catch up with friends. Lots of big bears to hug and have pictures with. def will come back Boba : chewy, not to sweet A++ I like. It's brown and kinda like gems. Cup design: cup is stupid cute with a bear lid. Didn't need that plastic covering but very clean but I prefer to be a little less plastic waste if possible. Price: not horribly pricy but can get quite pricy for the size you're getting.

*HIGHLY RECOMMEND* Literally one of the cutest boba shop in the city. Right at the heart of UCity, Boba Kings knows how to get to the hearts of students. The shop has an upstair dining area that has a flower wall and a neon light wall with a quote from The Little Prince "If you come at 4, I shall begin to be happy at 3", very instagramable. Also, their bathroom has a smart mirror that you can adjust the lights to get that perfect bathroom selfie. Their drinks come in this cute bear cup. Their menu may be small but there are so many unique drinks with dry toppings in addition to classic milk teas and fruit teas. I got their Muddy Matcha Bear and the matcha flavor is very present, strong. They also have honey toast, which was really good. Overall, the drinks and food and aesthetics of this place is A+. *VERDICT* Definitely would come back again.
