I must admit, I'm very late to this whole Boba thing. Nowadays it seems to be as common as Blockbuster Video was back in my day. Because of this proliferation in the public food service retail market, it has become much more paramount that the true originators, the pioneers of the "modern trend", continue to stand out with not only a delicious quality product, but the minor additions, aesthetics, and even the cliché'd corporate mantra of "it's our people that make the difference".
Sure, people can get a Boba filled milk tea anywhere, but they come to No. 1 Boba Tea at UNLV for the atmosphere and the attitude.
Bonus points if you can identify where that reference originated.
Anyways, No. 1 Boba Tea UNLV is exceptionally clean, comfortable, a bit quaint, and definitely not on the campus proper of UNLV. It's in the Target Shopping Centre, adjacent to an AYCE Korean BBQ restaurant and a relic of modern day, GameStop.
The staff is extremely cordial, welcoming, and earnestly engage with every customer, asking the right questions, and ensuring that each of the rather complicated beverage requests are fulfilled deliciously and accurately.
I have been to several Boba places owned by many different individuals, corporations, etc, and I can unequivocally say that No. 1 Boba Tea is my favorite by a significant margin.
