Dont Yell At Me

Don’t Yell at Me is one of my favorite boba drink shops in the area. I’ve been coming to this location since they opened, approaching five years ago. I am a purist who enjoys the milk tea above all else. In their recent menu update, they added four premium tea items to the menu, and one of them has become a favorite – Premium Da Hong Pao (second on their list). This STRONG, earthy, dark tea goes very well with the milk and sugar to become a rich, potent milk tea. I take it at 25% sugar. The recommended is 50% or higher. This drink cannot be made into a hot tea. Highly recommend if you are a tea connoisseur. The staff is still friendly and easy-going. The restaurant is still holding up well, 4.5 years since my original review. Parking is plentiful via garages and lots.

This is good place for boba, they have a good variety and the pearls are well cooked. The hot milk teas are served too hot, so you need to wait a while before you can drink. The other thing is that it can get really noisy, so having a conversation might be not as easy. Better as a take out place.

I love their drinks, they are always made so well. Even down to the cups they use (how many times babe you ordered Boba in a flimsy plastic cup and it spills everywhere), you can see the attention to quality. I tried their Premium Jasmine Milk Tea with Rose Jelly and I have to say, it's even better than the Jasmine Milk Tea at Molly Tea (Bellevue). Also they are dog-friendly, so +10000 points!

Such a great spot for boba! Everything we tried was super delicious and fresh. The drinks were flavorful, not too sweet, and the boba had the perfect texture. Can’t wait to come back and try more!

Not made for Taiwanese flavor. They use syrup for flavor. And they remove the waffle in the menu even through I saw the machine and dough just right there.

Good vibe and decent drinks. I tried the lavender milk tea with boba and asked for 50% sweet. It’s just a hint of lavender so don’t expect too much flavour or maybe it was because I asked for less sweet.

The boba milk tea was just average. The tea itself was quite diluted, even with 50% less ice, lacking the rich flavor you’d expect. However, the Uji Matcha strawberry drink was delicious.

The name is quite peculiar haha. The price is fair for the amount of tea you get. For those who don’t like sweet and prefer to taste more of the tea, 15% sweetness is perfect. It’s ideal for people who like to add brown sugar pearls. I ordered the Osmanthus tea btw🧋

I recently got a egg waffel choco chip (Wed, Oct 29, 2025 at around 1700) and brown sugar boba. I waited probably 10 minutes for the waffel to be made, only to be told that it looked sad and deflated. Its no problem tho! If it was edible, I'd still eat it. In result, the little asian girl with a black pony tail let me know how she felt about it, and offered to give me a sandwich for free in return, on too of giving me the egg waffle i paid for. Overall, I wish I got her name-shes the best!! DYAM staff are above and beyond! You guys make the ambuance inside, very calming and welcoming in such a busy area outside!

I liked their tea from the Seattle location, so i decided to visit since I haven't been to the kirkland location. Parking is easy, and the mall has a decent number of stores to shop around. The price is decent, and the ambiance is also nice and clean. (Minus the music getting disconnected and became staticky time to time) However, I didn't get a good vibe from people working. Walked up to the front desk to order and the girl was on her phone, didn't even acknowledge us arriving to order. Asked her if this is where we order and she said yes. A lot of their toppings were out (rose jelly, osmanthus jelly, etc). I ordered jasmine milk tea and it comes in a hot beverage cup, but the girl said they can't make it hot-- Only cold which I thought was weird. It also had a sign at the register that today is short staffed, but i see 4 people just chatting around at the register (and more people in the back). Jasmine tea and mango green tea was good, but not sure if i would make a separate trip to visit again.

What a catchy name for a bubble tea shop! The name definitely piqued my curiosity and I decided to stop by to check them out. The shop is bright, clean, and spacious. There's a menu stand located by the doorway which listed all of their drinks. They also have cold case filled with various types of sandwiches, custard tarts, and basque cheesecakes. I ordered the original milk tea with brown sugar pearls and an egg salad and chive sandwich. One thing I noticed about the ordering process is the option to customize my drink order. I opted for regular ice and 50% sweetness. There was a slight wait for the drink order due to the shop being short staffed. I decided to dig into the sandwich while waiting for my drink. That sandwich tasty and had a slight tang. It was a perfect snack sized portion. The original milk was perfectly made. Not too sweet and not too much ice. I was considering also ordering the bubble waffles, but was short on time. I would definitely come back and try their bubble waffles and smoothies.

A cute boba tea place. Lots of room to sit. Staff is pleasant and patient. Apparently, the rumor is that the name of this place is due to the Taiwanese owner being pressed to be a doctor by her parents, and instead opening a boba shop, hence the "Don't yell at me" response to her parents. I personally wouldn't be disappointed if I were them, but... Tried the Uji Matcha smoothie (seasonal), which comes with strawberries and cheese foam (which can be substituted for another topping). Quite good, and I'd recommend it. Prices aren't the best (about $10 per boba).

Cutest name ever for a boba place and the menu is very interesting. We just discovered it and stood in line for coffee of sorts. I needed caffeine and got sugar infusions instead. It's crowded here today on Thursday 8/21/25

Went in late on a Saturday night (love that they are open until 10p), and ordered a mango smoothie add pearls, and a strawberry smoothie no added cheese foam. We were given a sample of the cheese foam and decided against it but I'm sure it adds rich flavor to the smoothies. The very helpful gal behind the counter patiently explained flavors to us and let us know we could customize the amount if ice used, the sweetness level, and add-ins. We opted for 50% sweetness since she let us know 100% was pretty sweet. Both smoothies were light and refreshing, glad we went with her advice at 50% sweetness!

I don't drink boba too often but when I do, I go to the best boba spots in WA. Don't Yell at Me serves best quality tea. I ordered the tiramisu milk tea with cheese foam and it was so so good. The drink is very sweet so I ordered 25% sweetness level, less ice, and with rose jelly. This is the perfect amount of sweetness and the jelly paired very well with the milk tea. The jelly topping is so underrated, I prefer it over boba any day. Staff are quick and friendly. Service was face. Place was very clean and nicely decorated.

Had a great experience at Don't Yell at Me! They were so accommodating to my dietary restrictions and loved the vibe of the interior. My drink was so refreshing after I did a round of VR next door! Would definitely be stopping by again with my friends next time I'm in the Totem Lake Village.

It's been a while since I've been to this location so I decided to come here after doing some errands around the area. Upon entering, there was already a long line, which is a good sign. This time I ordered the original milk tea with cheese foam and Puer latte to-go. The drinks were so good and still consistent compared to when I first had it. The Puer latte was strong and earthy, which made it very enjoyable if you appreciate drinking tea. I really like the original milk tea which had a strong tea flavor and creamy cheese foam, topped with Oreo crumbles. This drink had a sweet and salty balance like a dessert. Will definitely order this again and try their other cheese foam drinks.

I was in the area and have been wanting to try Don't Yell at Me, so stopped in for a drink. The inside is very spacious and open with plenty of seating. They weren't busy, so after reviewing the menu I decided to get their seasonal Uji Matcha with oat milk and brown sugar boba (half sweetness level). The drink was pretty good, the matcha wasn't as strong as I like/prefer and the boba didn't have much flavor but the texture was good. They also included some fresh strawberry in the drink which was nice. The cheese foam surprised me, it's definitely an acquired taste.. it was sweet and salty at the same time - not something I'd order again. My friend got the strawberry smoothie and added honey boba, she enjoyed the drink. Overall, glad I was finally able to stop in and give them a try!

No complaints. Fast service, open late on a weekday which was nice to see, and very clean and bright. Workers were really nice. Since it was late, my friend and I wanted something without caffeine - and even though there were limited non-caffeinated options, the employees were kind enough to point out which ones we could get. Ended up with the Wintermelon Crysanthemum Tea (which apparently is one of the top 6 most popular drinks) - no ice, 15% sugar, with brown sugar boba. I'm glad they had a 15% option which I dont see often, if at all in other places, and I'm glad I got this because the brown sugar boba added more sweetness to the drink so it ended up being like a 25%-40% sweetness to me. It was good though, and lightly chilled just enough that it was perfect without ice for the already chilly winter evening. Boba was fresh and chewy. Tea was fragrant enough and light and refreshing. The added flowers were a cute, nice touch for aesthetic. Would definitely return, and try something else. I heard the most popular thing about this chain is the salted cheese foam, so I may be trying that next.

We've been to a couple of these locations and have been surprised with how consistently good it is. They have some nice unique flavors you don't get at many other boba places like tiramisu or crème brûlée. I got a strawberry smoothie with coconut lychee and it was really good. Highly recommend trying. These locations tend to be pretty minimal so on the inside there is some seating but never that much. If you come here, I would not plan on there being a ton of open space especially if you have a bigger group. The service is friendly and was willing to answer our questions and explain what the drinks were like. They also allow a decent amount of customization. We decided to remove the foam cheese, and they were happy to do that for us. Parking is not a problem because of the garage and lot nearby.

Stopped by for the first time and was really impressed with the Strawberry Smoothie. It was a bit on the sweeter side--probably my fault for going with 50% sweetness. Might try 25% next time. Prices are pretty standard for a boba spot, similar to Happy Lemon. Definitely coming back to check out more of their menu!

If you like matcha you must try the Uji matcha smoothie with cheese foam. Don't expect it to have the bitterness of ceremonial grade matcha. But it has a hint that pairs well with strawberries and cheese foam Staff is nice as well!

My partner and I decided to visit every single Don't Yell At Me shop when we visited Seattle, and boy did we achieve this task in the 3-4 days we were up there, lol. I can only comment on their chrysanthemum tea and wintermelon tea, and all I can say is: divine. If you're not a fan of milk tea and like tea, like actual tea flavors, get the chrysanthemum tea. I like how they actually include the chrysanthemum flowers in the tea. Not only is the tea pretty to drink, but visually aesthetic to the eyes. It's also wonderful to see some of the tea leaves they use for their drinks in tins to inspect and inhale the aroma before selecting a drink too! What was the selling point for my partner to visit this boba shop was their iconic clothing merch. If you ever come to CA and see some nerdy Asian guy wearing their iconic black or white "Don't Yell at Me" tee, it's 1000% my partner, lol. It was kind of whimsical that the employees informed us that the clothing sales were final. I had to tell them we had no plans to return, as it would require a plane ticket, a rental, and a drive to the store. Besides, my partner was just too in love with the hoodie and clothes. We will need to see another clothing merch before we hit WA again, lol. For the most part, the ambiance of the store was very modern and plain--a trendy place for teens and adults to gather with friends. I personally grabbed my drinks and left to explore the rest of what WA had to offer, but noticed a lot of people relaxing in the store with drinks in hand.

Reasonable bubble tea. However they seem to have lean more towards the social Norm of milk teas rather than traditional and classical teas. Due to this, it's nothing unique anymore but there's still okay. However the prices could be more reasonable and more competitive as there are better bubble tea places in Kirkland and Woodinville.

Had the mango bubble tea with cheese foam and coconut jelly. It was mostly fine, but I would have blended it a few more seconds as there were a few large pieces of ice at the bottom. Ordered online and it was done quickly. But man, this drink costs as much as a cocktail at the restaurant next door.

A friend recommended Don't Yell at Me for some good boba and we had a chance to drop by while driving through Kirkland. Ordering is at a kiosk and while the line does get pretty long at peak times, the wait isn't too bad at all since they churn through drinks quickly. Traditional Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Golden Honey Pearls ($6.25) - This is an excellent milk tea. It has a very distinct malty, roasty flavor, almost reminding me of coffee a bit. There's a bit of a caramel undertone throughout, making each sip very pleasant to drink. The milk is only included to add body and thickness to the drink, rather than adding much flavor, and the sweetness at half is quite a bit over slightly sweet, but isn't too overpowering. I got the drink with less ice which is pretty much perfect. There's just enough to cool down the drink completely leaving only a couple of small chips left in the drink. The golden boba has a very nice chew, almost perfect. It's smooth and easy to flatten on the tongue, with great mouthfeel. Compared to the brown sugar boba, I'd get this every time. I did find there were small strands of tapioca that seem to have sloughed off from the pearls. Not unpleasant to drink, but definitely noticeable. Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 5/5 Osmanthus Jasmine Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Brown Sugar Pearls ($6.70) - Another excellent drink. Great flowery jasmine taste boosted by osmanthus petals. The petals aren't strained out of the drink, so in between sipping up pearls comes small bits of flower petal. I did find this drink to be a bit sweeter than the other - if I got this again, I'd probably go with 25% sweet. But again, the drink it quite well balanced between sweetness, milk, and tea, really allowing the tea taste to shine. The brown sugar boba is a step down from the honey boba. It's not only a bit firmer and harder, but also has much more of those small pieces with even more inconsistency in size. The pearls are still nice to chew, but just can't hold a candle to the honey boba. Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 4/5 This particular DYAM location is the most inconvenient for me to reach, so while the drinks are excellent and I would revisit in a heartbeat when I'm in the area, I'm more likely to go to the other locations. For anyone living in Kirkland or adjacent, this location is an obvious recommend. Bathrooms - Two unisex rooms

I recommend the freshly made egg waffles; they make them to order and it comes out warm and crispy, a perfect snack to go with the tea. They also have a nice seating area for you to sit down and enjoy your tea/waffles. I ordered a mango green tea and a waffle, both were great. Unfortunately, they wouldn't serve the drink in the clean reusable tumbler that I brought, and used their plastic cup instead. It would be great if they were more eco friendly.

I like coming here for the tiramisu milk tea and it's the one I recommend!! Service is pretty fast too and I like this location!!

Didn't know that there was a location for Don't Yell at Me in Kirkland, so I had to stop by here to get some milk tea! There's a good bunch of seating I ordered my drinks up at the counter, though you can also order on an electronic system nearby. My drink was made pretty quickly though I had a hard time hearing my number through the speakers to get my drink, as it was very loud inside. I got the tiramisu milk tea with cream cheese foam and osmanthus tea jelly, with 50% sweetness and less ice. I got caught off guard and actually found the drink still too sweet, and wondered if I should have gone with 25% sweetness instead. Osmanthus tea jelly somehow works well with my drink and oddly didn't add too much extra sweetness. I'd come back here for a good milk tea whenever I hit up the Totem Lake area of Kirkland, they're pretty solid with their drinks if you know what to get!

Pricey drinks but I love anything with osmanthus in it, and this place offers plenty of options with it, including osmanthus jelly toppings! My go-to is the osmanthus jasmine milk tea with honey boba pearl, 15% sugar. I like that there's a 15% sugar option because I don't like my drinks to be overly sweet and this is a good balance. Seating is very sparse and the chairs are hard/uncomfortable, so not a place for long chats or working remotely from - most people seem to just grab and go. Convenient location with lots of parking in the mall area. If the prices were a bit cheaper, I'd be back way more often!

Don't yell at me is always busy! Now I know why! I tried the mango tea at 50% sweetness and it was still sweet! It really tasted like mango and I enjoyed it! I also tries lychee and the 50% was only slightly sweet! The flavor was great! I will definitely be back! The line was long but it did not take too long to get our drinks! If you order. Waffle it may double your wait time of its busy. So just be aware.

Don't yell at meeee. Simple menu but quality tea you can taste. I'm not a huge floral tea person but I will order them here just because that's what they are known for!

Right down the street from the Evergreen hospital, Don't Yell At Me has become our favorite Bubble Tea shop in the greater Seattle area, and a must-stop after every appointment in Kirkland! The shop is very black-and-white, accurately self-described as minimalist. Sometimes you order on an iPad, other times you can talk to someone, but the iPad ordering is very clear and convenient. Now to the important part, the drinks! Don't Yell At Me has our FAVORITE salted cheese foam. Their original Milk Tea w/ cheese foam is a very interesting mix of flavors: honey, Oreo (!!), tea, and the fantastic richness of the cheese foam. But I'm a sucker for anything Mango, and their Mango smoothie w/ Cheese foam is my all-time favorite! The coconut jelly goes perfectly with it. My wife is a big fan of the Tiramisu Milk Tea w/ cheese foam. We haven't had a single drink that was disappointing yet. There are plenty of customization options, including Oatmilk or Lactose free whole milk. The best boba we've tried are the Brown Sugar Pearl, it goes with a lot of their non-fruity drinks. Please check out Don't Yell At Me, they are already well known in Seattle proper, and I'm so glad we have a location on the east side!

This bubble tea cafe has modern, cool, hipster vibes. There wasn't any music playing in the background and there were Halloween decorations throughout. They sell merch with the meme face on it and I wanted to buy the dad hat that the workers were wearing but they aren't for sale. The wait was less than 5 minutes and there was only one order ahead of ours. I'm disappointed that they discontinued the taro balls; the taro milk tea with taro balls used to be my go-to. This time around I ordered the osmanthus jasmine milk tea. I prefer getting golden honey boba here over the brown sugar boba. I also like that lactose free milk is an option. 4.5 outta 5. The teas here are stronger and the drinks are less sugary. My wife prefers the sugary bubble tea places like happy lemon so she gave it a 4/5, but I give it a 5/5.

Easily one of the best milk teas I've had in Puget Sound!! A friend of mine recommended this boba spot, and this place definitely lived up to the hype. Love any tea combo with the cheese foam topper, and I also really enjoyed the osmanthus jelly topping. Will definitely stop by again soon!

First of all.. looove the name of this place lol. It's so unique. Very spacious and minimal boba spot. Tea is authentic.. not your powder milk tea. Love it! I ordered the oolong tea with cheese creama. Sooo good. It was super affordable too! I paid like $11 for two drinks. Unheard of nowadays for milk tea. I will definitely be back!

I was craving something simple after lunch, so I got Original Milk Tea (the cashier told me it's creamier and has a weaker tea taste compare to Traditional Milk Tea). The drink was good (consistent with other locations), but it did take a while (maybe 15-20 minutes) to order. It's especially busy on a weekend. I enjoy people-watching on the couch for a bit while sipping on my drink. The good thing about this location is the free parking.

My all time fav drink is the osmanthus oolong tea with 25% sweet and golden honey pearls. My husband most recently tried the Traditional milk tea and it has a stronger tea flavor than the original milk tea, which we really like! We tend to go for Boba teas with strong tea flavor. The original milk tea has a more milky & creamy taste if that's what you are into. We love love love how all the don't yell at me locations are dog friendly! We always bring our little @koda.bear.pomsky with us and he enjoys his visits. We love this location bc the village has all the best pets right around the corner! The ambiance here is very nice and modern, well lit & clean! They sell re-useable boba tea straws, merch & apparel! Service is on point and they are usually pretty knowledgeable about their tea offerings. We love this location bc there is plenty of free parking and even a parking garage, public bathrooms are also available near the parking garage. Can't wait for our next visit!

Creme brûlée is back! DYAM has a wide selection of tea drinks that aren't seen at other boba shops. I'm always happy with their drink quality.

I was looking for post-dinner bubble tea exploring this area and poked in here. Nice clean modern & bright space but a bit too simple/uninspiring in design. Vegan options are very limited; I think just 2 options (fresh taro and brown sugar, don't quote me)? Of course, made sure with oat milk (looks like they use Califia brand which worked pretty good for this). Less sweet and half ice... not bad! I'd prefer a more smooth texture so next time maybe same sweetness but no ice. Staff also felt receptive & friendly to my questions. Great central location. Worth a try.

Lied about oatmik. My husband and I both have lactose intolerance and ordered oatmik for the extra charge. When we got the drinks, both tasted like dairy milk. Just in case - I asked to clarify that they had oatmik in them.. staff confirmed they did ... but ... even after leaving we continued tasting the real milk but wanted to believe the staff was honest. Of course within 20 minutes we both started feeling sick. Keep in mind - this is my second time giving this place a try. I've had the same nauseous reaction before but dismissed it as something else. Now I know this place lies about the oatmik (and upcharge). Never coming back again.

Stopped by for bubble teas before a movie. The guy working here was SUPER nice and friendly - 5 stars for him alone. He was knowledgeable about the options and answered my questions. I ordered the taro with milk. It is puréed taro chunks swirled with milk. It got a bit too thick after a while, and it was a bit hard to get all the taro out, but overall it was tasty. I just wouldn't recommend if you're in the mood for something refreshing or lighter. Definitely a thick and heavy option. The guy also spent a lot of time hand making this taro milk, it seems like a very involved drink option, so once again - props to the people working here and thank you for the friendly service! The inside is very nice and clean, maybe a bit sterile but very trendy and there is some nice seating.

I was at Totem Lake, wanted a cold drink and decided to try Don't Yell at me. I got the Mango Smoothie Topped w/ Cheese Foam with 50% sweetness. I loved the Mango Smoothie.

Slow service. I ordered in advance by over 10 minutes. When I arrived, there was a single person taking orders AND making drinks. After I was able to finally talk to him, I found that my order was not even confirmed at that time. When he finally confirmed my order, before making my drinks he had to take more orders from other customers. This is a workday afternoon when it was not so busy. Yet I still had to wait 15 minutes in store despite of having ordered in advance.

I love this boba spot!! Whenever I'm in totem lake, I have to stop by here and get a drink! The service is always great and the drinks came out fast even when the line was long and busy! I love their strawberry smoothie with cheese foam and the golden honey pearl topping is so chewy and delicious! Their drinks are a little bit on the pricier side when you add the topping it's like $7-8 but I think it's still worth it! I wanna try all their other flavors. The drinks are so pretty too which is a plus :) definitely try if you're in the area!

Our first time here in this tea shop. I ordered a simple drink Osmanthus Jasmine tea - less ice and 25% sugar. They didn't take a long time to prepare it. I enjoyed the drink, especially after walking so much, and it was refreshing. The drink is perfect and not overly sweet. This plaza has many parking, so no need worry about it.

Super aesthetic place and A++ drinks. The staff is super friendly and will give you recommendations and offer samples. This is our go-to place for our group of friends - they handle huge groups of people very well, service is fast, and lots of seating.

REAL TALK: It was, obviously, the name of this place that had me excited and intrigued to check them out! Don't Yell at Me is a bubble tea place that has a cool, minimalistic vibe that offers beverages with sea salt cheese milk foam, drinks that are made with the 'Old Master Formula', organic milk versions, fresh milk teas, and espresso tea lattes. I tried: +the Pink Lychee Smoothie Topped with Cheese Foam +the Osmanthus Jasmine Milk Tea +and, the Roselle Honey Chrysanthemum Tea The drinks, while aesthetically pleasing (especially their logo!), were just okay - those who are being mindful of their sugar intake will appreciate this place, as they don't seem to use syrups and are not heavy handed with sugar/sweeteners. The staff here are super friendly and welcoming, but the drinks do take quite some time to make - I think I waited close to 20 to 30 minutes for mine, and I wasn't sure what the backup was. I really liked that modest collection of apparel and accessories, especially the sweaters and the hoodies! There are handful of seating inside to enjoy your drinks. Extremely limited metered parking is available. +great apparel for purchasing +friendly staff +slow service +limited metered parking

Cool vibe, fast efficient service and great drinks! I went for a classic milk tea with minimal sweetness and brown sugar pearls. Really pleasant, clean and modern place to hang out with floor to ceiling windows. Lots of great salted foam drinks to try!

I am a frequent visitor of the U district and Cap hill location so it was refreshing to try another spot. This location is just as busy as the others but it's in a very nice area in Totem lake. I got the winter melon chrysanthemum tea which was very refreshing and light. Great strong tea flavor. One of the best bubble tea spots in my opinion.

10.16.2022 I'm glad don't yell at me came to the eastside! My first time visit at Kirkland location and I ordered Lychee smoothie with golden perl. I wanted to try rose jelly (new item) but it was all sold out. Sunny Sunday and 20ppl were ahead of me and I waited about 20min to get my drink. I loved my lychee drink and I was very thirsty, so I finished soo quickly. Can't wait to try another flavor!!

Definitely need to find what you like in order to really assess if this is the spot for you. They have more traditional drinks here. I got the hot traditional milk tea with 25% sweetness and it's a little sweet but much better than my previous experience here. The drink is super yummy, creamy, warm, everything you'd need to perk you up. Service was helpful, I asked about clarification between the original and traditional (original has Ceylon black tea and creamer vs. traditional is Taiwanese black).

I got the pink lychee smoothie topped with cheese foam and it was so yummy. My friends love the pink lychee smoothie so I had to try out their favorite drink. After asking for the staff's recommendation, I adjusted the sweetness level to 50% and it was the perfect amount of sweetness for me! It was light, fruity, and creamy. It seems like a wonderful spot to catch up with some friends while sipping on delicious boba drinks.

Drinks are pretty good. One of the best things I like about this place is that it allows you to control sugar to 50% less or none. Likewise, for ice, you can request less ice. The drinks taste seems fresh vs other boba places, feels like more artificial or powdery drinks. I recommend this place!

Limited menu, pretty much all milk based. Didn't love the taste but seemed to be a popular place. Prices are quite high for bubble tea

I tried the Rose Milk Tea with boba + oat milk this afternoon and have terrible food poisoning. It hit about 2 hrs after I finished drinking it and I didn't eat or drink anything else so I'm pretty certain it was something in the drink.
