Cafe Boba - Kentwood

Walked in and greeted the cashier, who was immediately unfriendly and brusque. I don 't really care about this as people have bad days, etc. However, I confirmed with her that the veggie dumplings are vegan, to which she responded they were. I ordered them, received them, and started eating them. I noticed chunks of what seemed to be very clearly meat, but when I brought this up to her she said you ordered the veggie dumplings? Those are the veggie ones without taking a look at them. She told me it was tofu in them. I have not eaten meat in two and a half years and have eaten plenty of tofu; I was not convinced as this was very chewy and tough On my way back home, about a 30 minute trip, I started feeling nauseous, and threw up when I got home. Seeing the pieces again there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I was given the pork dumplings. Disappointed and furious, I will never be going here again

I ordered a boba smoothie and Korean vegetarian dumplings. The smoothie was more like slightly flavored water with boba at the bottom. No flavor at all and extremely watered down tasting and watery consistency. The dumplings I was given were the wrong ones and had meat in them. What an unpleasant surprise for a lifelong vegetarian! I will never go here again! Poor attention to detail and unimpressive colored water for a smoothie. If I could give less than one star I would.

They staff is super kind, great layout with seating, plenty of variety on the menu, and they even have board/card games! My go-to Boba spot.

I can't say enough good things about Cafe Boba! Absolutely love their milk tea and original boba. Everything tastes homemade and delicious. I especially look forward to their Sakura milk tea in the spring and wish they had it year round! Their little cakes are also sooooo good. Wish they would change out the flavors more. The dumplings are delicious also. Such a great atmosphere to enjoy a tea and/or snack with a friend! I wish they were open later during the week.

Super cute atmosphere ! As my Grandaughter put it (aesthetically great lol)Delicious drinks. Definitely a must
