The taste is good, but the overall experience was disappointing. They use huge ice cubes—just two of them fill up almost the entire cup. This time, we asked for no ice, which surprisingly took some convincing. In the end, we got two “no ice” boba milk teas for $13.14, which feels way overpriced given the portion and experience. If you are not fan of huge ice cubes, I recommend you go to L’moon which is close by and much better than this boba! The new owners of this place, they are really “smart” about controlling costs by “preserving flavor” with huge amounts of ice, but unfortunately, a good business should also be smart at keeping its customers satisfied.

Cute spot! I typically get 75% sweetness, but the drinks we got weren’t too sweet at 100%. It did take a little bit longer than expected to make the drinks - there were no orders ahead of us and it took about 10+ minutes lol. But! The location is cute so it’s easy to pass time by walking around or window shopping. Average to slightly higher pricing for a boba place, about $6-7 per drink.

I was craving a sweet drink after dinner. We found this cute boba shop while walking around. Parking: There's paid street parking, if you get lucky. There are also paid parking structures. Ambiance/Environment: This spot is located in an alley that reminds me of Diagon Alley. If you watch Harry Potter, you’ll know what I’m talking about. It’s very small inside with little to no seating, but there is limited outdoor seating. Service: I didn’t get his name, but there was only one male worker. Shout out to him for working by himself. There was a mini rush that came in right after me. He was quick and efficient. Drink: I ordered the Ti Kwan Yin Milk Tea with boba and 100% sugar. This was the perfect drink to satisfy my craving. It surprisingly wasn’t too sweet as I thought. There’s not much flavor. It’s a very simple milk tea. The boba was decent; not too chewy and tasted as usual. Pricing: Average $ price for a boba drink. Good sizing for the amount you pay.

Worst experience I am so mad I ordered a Creme Brûlée Latte 75% sweet with boba. They took forever to make it. It was horrible their ice was taking basically the whole cup couldn't even put the straw in right and not even sweet AT ALL it was insanely bitter, didn't even have trash cans around so had to carry out my trash to the car. Horrible messed up my whole day I was really looking forward to try it. never coming here again

I have gone to this place intermittently over the past four years, but the most recent changes to the service and menu are sorely disappointing. The largest drink sizes are no longer offered while prices have only risen to $7 for some modest 20oz milk teas, which is pricey even in comparison to other boba shops nearby. Moreover, the quality of the boba and milk tea have have depreciated considerably since my first visits here. The last time I came, the milk tea was unusually watery while the boba pearls were overly sticky without pleasant texture. This is quite disappointing considering that I would have quite easily given Oinkmoo five stars not so long ago. If you are interested in high quality milk tea with boba, I would strongly suggest other locations instead.

They've rebranded to "coffee and tea" from "tea bar" in a bid to ride the cocktails of Mandarin Coffee. It doesn't feel much like a boba shop anymore, and you'll notice that in the quality and presentation of the drinks. Additional changes I've noticed: - Drink sizes shrank substantially. They used to be bigger. - You can no longer adjust the amount of ice in your drink. It's "fixed" now. - They no longer take reusable cups. I do not recommend Oink Moo anymore. There are far better options in the area.

Ordered the four seasons milk tea with coconut jelly and vietnamese coffee. Both were delicious! Love that they open til 10pm on Saturday, perfect drinks while charging our car in the parking lot.

Very cute boba shop with nice seating area outside. Drink was pretty good. Only downside is the parking is not free.

I had a fantastic experience when I stopped by! I couldn't resist trying the Fresh Milk + Brown Sugar Boba, which did not disappoint. The service was outstanding--I got my drink in no time. Plus, the location is just perfect! I walked in to find no line, which made it even better. Overall, it was such a delightful visit!

TL;DR: waited 40 minutes for two "drinks" - only one person working - hoping management reads these reviews Stopped by on a Saturday at around 4:45 and it wasn't too busy. They have a kiosk to order and there was only one person working but I figured it might be ok. They also have screens on top that tell you when your drink might be ready. The BOGO milk tea deal was what got me to order but now I regret it deeply. After 10 minutes I realized the estimated ready times were complete bogus - they were just arbitrary times. The one kid working to get the drinks ready seemed absolutely frazzled and less and less drinks got pushed out as the lines got longer. I shouldn't have let it go 40 minutes but I asked about my drinks when I noticed that they served a man who came AFTER me. When I asked them about it they just said "oh"; when I asked to cancel my drinks they said we're working on it now. Overall, it seems I waited 40 minutes for two cups of ice chips (drinks very watered down and tasted almost of nothing). Hope management makes some changes and hires more people (and maybe someone to optimize the time estimations lol).

Stumbled across this cute little cafe in Burlington Arcade & had to try it once I saw the Harry Potter flag; 10 pts for OinkMoo! Lol. Wintermelon milk tea with brown sugar boba - 4/5. Glad it was sweet & you can taste the wintermelon because we've tried some that were bland. The boba was a little soft & could use more brown sugar. Strawberry matcha with soymilk - 1/5. I usually get this drink at a popular chain bakery & love it so much, but sadly Oinkmoo's was not good. Flavor was altogether really off. Faint matcha taste & barely any strawberry puree. Soymilk tasted weird as well. Ultimately had to throw it away after a few sips. Overall, a hit & miss. Would return to try other drinks since the service was friendly & fast :)

I was craving boba as usual. My bf wanted to try this spot, I agreed. He arrived around 7pm today Friday 2/21. They told him they were closed right when he walked in. Out of all the places in Pasadena we chose yours and that happens? Ok, they let him order he brings me home my match milk tea it looks nothing like the pictures. It tastes ok but I'd go elsewhere. Highly recommend Prolece Tea.

Good drinks! I've had the Ti Kwan Yin milk tea and the Oolong tea with cheese foam and enjoyed both. They both had that deep roasted flavor from the tea that really stands out even when mixed with milk. Even for regular sweetness, it didn't feel overly sugary - it was just the right amount of sugar where you can appreciate the sweetness without it overpowering the taste of the tea and milk. For the tea with cheese foam, I wish they had given me one of those lid caps that makes it easier to sip from the cap because the straw makes it impossible to get to the cheese foam until it's at the bottom. This place opens a lot later than most boba places (at 3pm) and the boba isn't ready if you get here close to opening. Boba is solid in that it has the qq texture but it's not sweet at all, despite being brown sugar boba.

The service was grwat, staff was so nice and pleasant. They greeted us in and while we were ordering our deink, it was already ready before i even paid. Amazing! The drinks were super delicious, i got 25% sugar and I'm glad thay i did because it would've been overly sweet. I got the milk tea latte with grass jelly XL. Worth the drink and price! The ambiance was settled and clean. Would definitely come back for more drinks!

My friends and I came midday, and there wasn't a long wait at all. The shop itself is located in a cute alleyway and is pretty small. However, they had a couple of small tables right outside that you can use. I shared a taro OinkMoo smoothie. Honestly, I think I just went with the wrong choice for myself personally. If you're a fan of taro smoothies in general, I think you'd like this drink. I think I expected a different texture/flavorful taste with the blended look. However, I feel like it pretty much a straightforward taro smoothie. The boba did have good texture to it, but I felt like the amount was pretty low in comparison to other boba spots.My other friends had enjoyed their drinks, so I think I'll come back to try again another time.

Used to be one of my fav boba spots. But they changed owners twice since I moved to the area, and each time it's gotten significantly worse. Now 1/3 of the cup is ice, and the cup size went down 40% :/

I stopped by OinkMoo several days ago for a quick drink and I loved the location that it was in! It was tucked into this vintage alleyway with several other shops next door. There's plenty of street parking as well as a lot in the back so that shouldn't be an issue! I got their Rose Green Milk Tea with 100% sugar and less ice. It was flavorful and had good tea flavor, but it was a bit sweet for me so in the future, I would probably go for 50% or 75% sweetness. I didn't wait long and the cashier who took my order made my drink promptly and I was off and on my way! The inside is well-lit and there are various screens showing the menu along with some seating available right outside the entrance. There is no seating inside!

First time swinging by this place and was only walking in cause I'm always curious about Boba Spots. This one had a very different selection which led me to getting the sugarcane lemonade which was super refreshing! I'd probably get it again but with light jelly. The worker was nice and offered us a free Boba Chocolate which was nice. This place is also located in the Burlington Arcade which is a super nice and unique area which is great for instagram posts ahaha. Definitely would recommend stopping by if you have time

Dropped by Oinkmoo today and their menu looks pretty different from what I remembered. Current concept is following the steps that's on the screen to get your drink. The matcha smoothie I liked wasn't on the menu anymore for smoothies, but they were so nice to make it for me. Drink was as good as I remembered

I was out and about in Pasadena and randomly stopped by OinkMoo. Cute small tea shop. Walked in and it was pretty empty, no wait. Large selection of drinks. I ordered a mango green tea, no add ons. The cup was massive. My only complaint was that I ordered my drink at 25% sweet and it was still pretty sweet.

I was visiting Burlington Arcade and had a craving for a drink, after looking at the ridiculous lines at the other stores for coffee, I decided to give Oinkmoo a shot. I was first (still am) very confused about the name as I'm not sure how pigs play a role in milktea, but I digress. The ambiance of the shop is hip and cool, fitting in with the rest of the shops in that street. The cashiers were all friendly and helpful. We got the four season green tea with cheese foam, flavor was decent, but nothing spectacular. The TKY milk tea was decent too, just your average milk tea. Side note: we came right at open and the boba wasn't going to be ready for another 45 minutes, and the taro balls for another 30 minutes. Make sure you give them time to make these if you really need boba and taro in your drink! I would give other shops in the area a shot next time I'm in town as there are plenty of competition.

Big plus is that this tea shop is located in the little arcade of Pasadena. It's so nice to drop in and have a walkabout the arcade with your drink. Inside is quite small, meant for you to grab your drink and run, no place to sit and enjoy inside. Menu has the classics and the drinks are tasty. I'd also say it's comparable in price to other tea shops in the area. Service was fine, not too much of a wait for my tea which was appreciated.

One of my favorite boba spots in LA. It's in the Burlington Arcade, so a cute store in a cute area. Their boba is a great texture and I like the cheese foam on top. There's a small amount of indoor seating, and some outdoor seating in the Arcade.

Boba was absolutely delicious. You could tell it was freshly prepared and our drinks were wonderful as well. Honestly, aside from the drinks being great, the location is super cute. They also had these sweet little seats in their window area to sit in which my daughter absolutely loved. The guys preparing our drinks look like they were enjoying what they were doing which is always a nice thing. We definitely recommend this place and come back when in the area.

OinkMoo - such a unique name that caught me eye Yelping for a suggestion on drinks in SGV. This boba tea bar is within a conjoining plaza between Randy's Donut and Burlington...hard to find but a small venue facing Lake Ave. The shops/boutiques along this alley-center is very, very small so be prepared to order and then wait outside to avoid feeling claustrophobic. The interior is simple and is set up to order, pick up and go. There is limited inside seating, maybe 4-6 people at most, along the window bench. There are two small tables outside to hangout. The menu is selection is solid with a wide variety of popular flavored drinks. Similar to other boba chains, customers can change the level of ice and sweetness, including topping, that they want in their drink. There are two sizes - large and extra large (for iced drinks). MATCHA COFFEE Cheese Foam (25% sweetness): I am a huge fan of both so appreciate the concoction! The lightly sweetened base really brings out the matcha... and the generous layered of whipped cheese foam that elevates the drink. ROSE MILK tea (50% sweetness): It's okay nothing stands out. The subtle hint of rose good. The staff are nice and works hard to ensure drink throughput is turned out as fast as possible. I would certainly come back to support this tea bar.

Got here on a Saturday early afternoon and there wasn't a line so we got our drinks fairly quickly. Ordered the taro smoothie with 0% sweetness and it was amazing! Taro flavor is strong but not overpowering and the milk tasted fresh! Love the fact that you can customize sweetness level.

This is a cool boba shop tucked away in a cute alley in Pasadena. You'll be able to find plenty of parking in the lot out back. Drinks are typically on the sweeter side even when you get 50% sugar so be advised! This is the only place I've seen this specialty item. Have you heard of Tie Guan Yin? It is a unique type of oolong tea that literally translates to "Iron Goddess of Mercy", originating from the Fujian province in the 19th century. This place has it and that's mind blowing on its own! Tea enthusiasts will know exactly what I am raving about.

Updated review a year later: Located in little England, where the shops and overall vibe within the small alley is reminiscent of London, lies this boba shop. There is a good amount of seating and free parking in the rear, so coming in to buy a drink shouldn't be a problem. The problem was their drink itself. After sampling a few other boba shops that offer tieguanyin, the tea just tastes like syrup. Although I'm pretty sure this places does use real tea, their tieguanyin tea flavor compared to other shops that serve it just doesn't meet the expectation. The 75% I ordered was also pretty sweet, so I suggest ordering 50% sweetness for the people that usually get 75% levels. However, I do admit the XL cup is pretty unique, but their straws that fit the XL cup barely reaches the bottom. Their boba pearls? Absolutely no. They had flavor and were chewy, but they are not fresh; at least when I went on a Sunday afternoon. How could I tell? From the fact that clumps, I'm talking CLUMPS, got stuck in my straw while trying to drink it while driving. I'm not saying it didn't happen once or twice, but possibly 3-4 times where I just saw a big clump on the bottom of my straw, and it felt like even a vacuum cleaner couldn't suck the boba pearls up. Given that my mouth is a vacuum while drinking, you could only imagine how clumped and stuck together the boba pearls are. I mean, once or twice with little clumping is tolerable, but when it's to a point where I had to pull over multiple times just to get the pearls unstuck from my straw? No thanks. Overall, this place averages to be sweeter compared to when I last went, with their tea taste dwindling in the drinks. Similar can be said for boba pearl quality, clumping multiple times, my straw was literally flattened from sucking and still being unable to get the boba pearls up. If it's one word that appears the most in this review, let it be the same as this boba place: suck(ing).

One of the closest places in Pasadena for boba! Lots of parking. Prices are average ($5.45 per milk tea and comes with 1 free topping). Got the Jasmine Milk Tea with boba to go and it was delicious!!

Came here at around noon on Wednesday, and the door was open but the light inside store was not on. Staff behind the counter told me they open at 2 pm... but their yelp page said 11:00 am to 8:00 pm. Wasted my time driving all the way here. Went again today (Sunday), and their yelp page said they're open 11:00 am to 8:00 pm. I arrived at 6:55 pm. The staff inside were cleaning up and getting ready to leave. The door was locked & they waved at me saying they're closed even though the sign on their door said close at 7:00 pm. Another wasted trip.

Looking for boba in Pasadena? Oinkmoo is a decent spot for boba with plenty of free parking in the lot. They're situated in a quiet and aesthetic plaza that's great to stop at. They have plenty of drinks to choose from, I've tried the Strawberry Smoothie and Rose Green Milk Tea. They were both delicious and satisfied my cravings. Give them a try when you're in the area!

Oinkmoo is in a great little shopping area on Lake Ave! The outside is absolutely adorable and there's some seating inside and out but can be limited. I ordered the Lemon Yogurt Four Seasons Green Tea with 25% sweet. They unfortunately ran out of boba :( the tea and lemon flavors were good! I usually order 50% sweetness at other places but 25% is more than enough for me here. Pricing is reasonable and the menu has all the classics as well as some smoothies and salted cheese foams. We love how conveniently located it is, and often come here after dinner on Lake or order for pick up. There is a free parking lot behind the building!

The tea bar is located in a quaint arcade. The tea bar is a small store front. Order inside and enjoy your drink at the tables outside. The staff are friendly and helpful. We ordered Ti Kwan Yin two ways: cheese foam version and Milk Tea version. Both are delicious! This is definitely a must try! Enjoy!

Great option for quality boba milk tea. You have so many options off Lake, why not try something a bit higher tier! You can order ahead, especially when it's busy. But tonight with unusually cold weather there were only a couple people on this weekday evening. There are tables outside but it was too cold! Got the fresh milk taro. Good option if you're trying to cut some caffeine. While there is metered street parking, you're better off parking in the 90 minutes free lot behind the store fronts.

Located on a little alley with a turn doorknob handle, inside is a small place with a bench with boba cup holders. It's nice inside and the workers are quite friendly! - Ti Kwan Yin Milk Tea 5/5 (75% sugar) OMG. THIS MILK TEA FLAVOR IS REALLY GOOD. I WAS SO SURPRISED. Definitely recommend! - Passion Fruit Green Tea 5/5 (50% sugar) This amount of sugar was PERFECT! Not too sweet, since the worker said their drinks are on the sweeter side. Definitely recommend! Parking is free in the back.

Drinks were ok. Didn't taste much matcha in the Matcha Float even though I was sold on the Matcha Ice cream in it. The boba was soft but pretty bland. My husband got the cheese foam jasmine green tea and he was disappointed as well, because he couldn't taste the cheese foam in the drink and described it as a plain green tea. Location is cute,store is clean but not much helpful insight from staff on recommendations of drinks. We were already in the area, so it was convenient. We wouldn't go out of the way though.

I'm not gonna lie: I expected the boba from OINKMOO TEA BAR to be subpar because, and I understand I'm totally stereotyping here, it's located in the Burlington Arcade replica! The boba is tasty and cooked perfectly. OREO was really good. MILK TEAS IS AWESOME.

The milk tea was not as great as the service! 5/5 for the service provided by Zephen! The drink I got was called Ti Kwan Yin Milk tea with herbal jelly. It was one of the signatures. I ordered it to be safe since I have never been to this store before. It was similar to most black milk tea/ brown sugar drinks. It was the attentiveness from our cashier: his descriptions and welcoming personality that really sold the 5/5 star establishment. He even gave a neighborly discount! Thanks Zephen!!!!

Good yummy drinks, very soggy too soft boba. The oinkmoo smoothies are a really good option and super yummy and perfect amount of sweet if you get 80% sweet. If you've ever had Filipino mango cake the mango oinkmoo smoothie sort of tastes like that! Very nostalgic tasting. I would come back but NOT get boba just lychee jelly! TLDR: Yum Drinks, Boba Soggy!

I got the Strawberry Oolong and my friend got the White Peach Four Seasons, and they were both very bad. My drink tasted extremely bitter. I think the tea was brewed for too long or something. I couldn't finish it; it tasted lowkey like tobacco I'm giving it a 2 star rating because my other friend's drink, the Mango Smoothie, was smackalicious.

My 1st time at Oinkmoo was for a cup sleeve event! It's a small location, but in an architecturally beautiful area. My party parked in the outdoor lot on Shoppers Lane, and walked to the store, which was closer on the S. Lake Ave side of The Burlington Arcade. Overall, we had a good experience. The staff were friendly and patient as we decided on what to order (& our subs/add-ons). Our drinks were made relatively quick and we were in & out in about 10 minutes. The Burlington Arcade has some low & high tables for guests to use, and luckily, we were able to snag one to enjoy the rest of the event and sip on our drinks. I got the "Lycheemolala" (white peach green tea with lychee jelly) with light ice, which was one of the limited event items. I'm unsure of what it compares to in terms of a similar item on their permanent menu, but I enjoyed it. It was a little more sweet than I anticipated, yet it was smooth, had lots of jelly, and didn't leave a sticky sensation like other fruit teas I've had in the past. My friend got another event item, the "Borahae," which was kind of like taro milk tea with boba and they enjoyed theirs as well!

Super cute location! Oinkmoo is located on lake in Pasadena in a little strip mall type of building. As you walk in you're instantly transported to Harry Potter esque hall with beautiful store fronts, plants everywhere and best of all.. tables to sit and study with your yummy drink! I got the ti kwan yin milk tea with grass jelly. Essentially it is their black milk tea and a very good one it is! 70% sweet and half ice was still on the sweeter side but the flavor of the tea was great! A very deep rich and creamy flavor that bordered the taste of tea and chocolate. Would recommend! Service is fast and friendly. There isn't much more than a bench inside so not much interaction with employees beyond ordering and sharing the wifi password. Yes they have wifi ;)

OinkMoo is an exceptionally cool place to grab some solid milk teas or fruit teas in Pasadena and I will even say just in the entire LA area in general! Located in the beautiful UK inspired Burlington Arcade, this Tea Bar has some really interesting drinks that are worth your attention. Of note is the Ti Kwan Yin Milk Tea, which like most of OinkMoo's milk teas uses a non-dairy milk base. I liked its slight floral tinge as well as it not being too sweet. The passion fruit green tea also feels like a premium drink experience and like the aforementioned drink, has the right amount of sweetness for me. I also feel with drink menu items ranging from $4.50 to $6.25 in today's economy, the prices are fair. The staff was also friendly here and I thought the indoor window seating with the built in cup holders also provided a unique touch to the interiors - OinkMoo has definitely shot up to being my favorite go-to milk tea place in Pasadena!

Boba lovers, if you're scouting for a new spot, give Oinkmoo a go. The taro milk boba is my new weakness which is super dangerous because I live about 15 min walk away from this place! A bit overpriced but the boba is good enough for me to spend $7.

I rarely write bad reviews but this has got to be the worst boba I ever tried. The 50% signature fruit tea tastes and looks like straight orange juice. Where's the tea? I honestly couldn't tell you. Also the boba was hard and absolutely unpleasant to chew through. And I didn't think it could get worse, but the oolong tea tastes burnt and syrupy. You would think if you pay $6-7 per drink, you'd get quality drinks. Won't be coming back.

The menu has changed, the flavors are different and customer service is more cold and unfriendly. I wouldn't recommend coming anymore, when I used to come here all the time when I lived in Pasadena.

OinkMoo is located in the most aesthetically pleasing outdoor shopping strip. With tall archways and shops that remind you of Diagon alley, you are sure to return just for the location. Plenty of seating, Wi-Fi, and clean restrooms! I ordered a simple Thai tea boba and asked for their milk alternatives. While I don't think they have milk alternatives to choose from the team member stated that their drinks already are lactose free. With all that said, the drink itself was underwhelming. Not sure if it was what I had ordered or the drink was just not properly made but the Thai tea flavor wasn't concentrated enough and the milk alternative they used had a noticeable after taste. Wasn't a big fan of their drink, I would still recommend people to try it and go again but just to enjoy the beautiful location.

Ambiance: this tea shop is located at the entrance of the historic Burlington Arcade on Lake Ave, and there are few tables and high stools setup right outside of the store Service: four guests max allowed indoor at the same time to place the order, the staff is very friendly and super patient with questions, their signature tea happened to ran out, and introduced other popular drinks Drink: plenty choices from their menu, seasonal new items written on the blackboard outside, and top five selections also listed inside Taro OinkMoo Smoothie - **** one of their signature smoothies, large, half sugar, very creamy and refreshing taste, recommend Price: the drink cost around $7 plus any add-ons, convenient contactless payment

The best milk tea I've had in and around Pasadena! I was in the LA area for a short visit, and usually don't frequent a place more than once to maximize places to try in one trip, but I went to OinkMoo twice in one trip. It's just that amazing. I love how nearly any part of the drink is customizable, and the drinks are beautiful too. My friends got some drinks and the layers to the drink look just like the photos they display. Wow!! I really enjoy their oolong variations with grass jelly and oat milk. So creamy and good. Another friend tried their matcha and said that was great too. I can't wait to go back to the area and try more from OinkMoo!

My go-to spot for boba! It's close to the Caltech campus and is an essential addition to the Burlington Arcade Plaza. It has something for everyone whether it's milk or fruit tea, smoothies, or coffee. They recently started providing discount cards for specials on certain days of the week! There's minimal indoor sitting but plenty right outside in front of the other shops. Suggestion for improvement: more cows

Oinkmoo Tea Bar is located in the alleyway of the the Burlington Arcade shopping center. There was plenty of parking in the big parking lot. The interior of the shop is small and modern. I tried their Jasmine Milk Tea with boba, Matcha Oinkmoo Smoothie with boba, and Strawberry Oinkmoo Smoothie with boba. The Jasmine Milk Tea had a good creaminess to it, not much tea taste to it - I felt like 75% sweet was good, but regular ice was not cold enough. The Matcha Oinkmoo was tasted like a lightly sweeten matcha soy milk tea with a light matcha taste. The Strawberry Oinkmoo had a strong strawberry taste and it reminded me of a smooth strawberry milkshake or strawberry pocky, it was on the more sweeter side. I recommend the jasmine milk tea with boba.

I got the ti kwan yin milk tea with egg pudding, and it cost $6.01 for a pretty good size. The flavor was yummy and smooth and the egg pudding was a good pairing. However, there was nothing special to distinguish this milk tea from any other of the plentiful options for boba and milk tea in the greater SGV 626 area, so I'd come to OinkMoo again if I was nearby, but not particularly drive here just for it. It is in the alley with Float and is a cute little area for a quick walk-through. I saw someone else walk out with an XL size, which is really quite a long cup that I haven't seen before, comparable to the "chubby cups" of Half & Half, but in length, not width. Currently, they ask that you order inside and then wait outside for your order to be called when ready. They have a cute sitting area with a pretty window and clever cup holding side tables.

The reviews do not lie. Great boba, friendly service and perfect location make this one of my favorite boba places in Pasadena. After reading the positive reviews, I drove to Pasadena to try Oinkmoo. Plenty of parking in the back lot (free for 90 minutes). I got the taro milk tea with boba. I loved the milk tea (it was sweet with good quality boba). Special shout out to the nice employees. Super friendly and efficient service! I will definitely be back.
