The Best Boba Tea in Seattle | Eater Seattle

"Brown sugar milk tea Instagram sensation Tiger Sugar came to Downtown Seattle in summer 2021 after conquering Los Angeles and New York by a storm in 2019. Tiger Sugar stays fairly focused on its signature brown sugar milk tea drinks, with variations that come with coffee jelly, chocolate malt, and espresso. There are a few non-brown-sugar drink options, though, like mango sago, iced black tea, and iced green tea. It’s a three-minute walk from Pike Place Market." - Ryan Lee

I stopped by the Tiger Sugar location in downtown Seattle and wanted to share my quick experience. First off, be aware that parking is very limited since it’s right in the heart of downtown. I was lucky to find a spot right in front of the store and just turned on my hazard lights while grabbing my order. I got the drink in the picture — the Black Sugar Boba + Pearl + Tiger Jelly Milk with Cream Mousse. Both my friend and I ordered the large size, but just a heads-up: their cup sizes run smaller than most boba spots. The “extra-large” here is about the same as a regular size cup at other places, so keep that in mind. As for the drink itself — it was actually really flavorful. The tiger jelly had a coffee jelly vibe, which was a nice twist, and my cup came with both mini and regular boba, which made the texture pretty interesting. Overall, it was a great first-time visit and I’d definitely recommend trying it out if you’re already in the area!

Tiger Sugar delivers on taste—delicious boba drinks with great dairy-free options that didn’t disappoint. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and I appreciated the variety. The vibe inside was a bit quiet, especially for a weekend—it felt oddly empty, which took away from the usual fun boba shop energy. One of the ordering kiosks was also out of service, which was a minor inconvenience. The staff were polite but pretty reserved. On the bright side, the music was on point and added a nice touch to the overall experience. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving a quality boba fix.

My first visit to Tiger Sugar Boba was quite enjoyable. They offer a convenient self-service kiosk that makes ordering quick and easy. However, seating is limited, so it’s best for grab-and-go. I particularly liked the tiger-inspired interiors; they’re incredibly charming and add to the overall experience. I tried two drinks during my visit: the Black Sugar Boba + Pearl Milk with cream mousse and the Black Sugar Matcha Boba Milk with cream mousse. The Black Sugar Boba + Pearl Milk was a delight. The boba pearls, infused with the richness of black sugar, were perfectly cooked—soft, chewy, and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend this combination. On the other hand, the Black Sugar Matcha Boba Milk with cream mousse didn’t meet my expectations. The matcha flavor seemed muted, overshadowed by the sweetness of the black sugar. It’s a decent choice for those who prefer sweeter beverages, but if you’re seeking a robust matcha taste, you might want to explore other options on the menu.

It was just ok for me. For a boba place on a hot summer day to be just ok is not good though. The outside of the store is nondescript, no signage on the wall with its name except for an unattractive boba poster. The outside wasn't inviting at all. As for the boba drinks, the picture menu was interesting but unfortunately the sweetness level cannot be customized except for the tea and fruit series drinks. So I asked for the least sweet in the milk tea in the menu, the mango sago. For what it costs and compared to all the other boba drinks in Seattle (hello UD and CD) it was just meh. I won't give it three stars or lower because it could just be me and my spoiled with boba options hinny, but I won't be coming back here again.

I stopped here after a dental appointment as it makes hanging out in downtown and having to go to the dentist a little better. I’m usually hesitant to go to boba places where you can’t adjust the amount of sugar (most places are too sugary for me), but Tiger Tiger is really good and so far, the best boba spot in Seattle (sadly, I think most boba options in Seattle are pretty meh). I think the ice level is also not customizable, but that’s okay with me. Level of sweetness, ice, cream, milk and tea was balanced. The boba was a little soft but it was also warm and fresh. I’ve tried the brown sugar boba at other Tiger Tiger locations, and it’s pretty good, as it is their number one flavor. Here, I had the taro flavor and I think it is even better. This is a small location, and there is no seating here, as this is takeout only. You order from a kiosk and boba comes out within five minutes - staff is also friendly and fast.

Really good boba! The fruit tea was so refreshing! What a gem of a place glad we chose this spot!

Kinda disappointed with my first visit to this Seattle location. The taste is watered down compared to Tiger Sugar drinks I've tasted in Asia. Also, $20 for 2 XL drinks is hella pricey. 🥴

We ordered a black sugar boba + Pearl + tiger jelly milk boba. I wanted to try tiger milk since I heard it was good. But the boba overall was too sweet, and not that great! I wouldn’t wanna go. Plus they had limited choice on the menu. The overall ambience of the place is nice, matches up to the whole downtown scene.

Solid boba! They are known for their drinks with sugar + milk over milk tea so my favorite is the #4 with coffee latte because it's not as sweet. FYI the electronic systems they use have a convenience fee/local tax attached ( boba is 5/5 stars). The kioski near the door charges at 35 cent fee so order at the register to save some change :)

Be warned, street parking only and it was not easy. It was my first time trying Tiger Sugar in Washington (previously had it in Vancouver and California). The store is petite. I ordered on the kiosk, and got my drink in about 5 minutes. It's been a while since I had this, so I went with #1, their signature Black Sugar Boba and Pearl Milk with Cream Mousse. I gave it 4/5. I liked the idea of small and large boba in one drink (different textures), but the small boba was way to soft and didn't have much chew. The large boba was really good, the perfect texture, sweet and chewy. Next time I want to try the one with boba and pudding!

Easy self order on kiosks and drinks came out very quickly! The brown sugar boba with cream mousse and pearl milk was so sweet and the boba was soft and chewy. The taro drink was also so good! Overall prices were average (~$7)

This was the worst bubble tea I've ever had. Just syrupy and cloyingly sweet, with no redeeming value.

This place can be a little hard to find. It's like tucked in an alleyway entrance. I swear the only reason why I keep coming back to Tiger Sugar is like Starbucks, they utilize an app that you can order your drinks ahead and get reward points. Another reason why I like coming here is because this is the only boba spot that I know of that serves hot boba drinks in downtown Seattle. Also +1000 points for having so many milk substitution! As a lactose intolerant, I absolutely love it! I normally order my drinks with Lactaid. They have collaboration with Hello Kitty and all their drinks are served in these extremely cute Hello Kitty cups. They recently launched their newest addition and it's the jumbo sized boba. I've tried it and honestly its just mehhhh... cuz the boba balls are too big to be sucked from a regular boba straw so you'll have to remove the lid of the drink and eat the jumbo balls with a spoon. What's the point!? If you are new to Tiger Sugar, I suggest trying out what they are known for, their black sugar boba drinks (drinks 1-5). Everyone that I've introduced it to loved it! I personally love their Black Sugar Tea Latte with Cream Mousse drinks (T5 & T7) The whole place is decorated with cute tiger stuffed animals. Everyone who works there are super friendly and super fast in making the drinks!

Been meaning to try Tiger Sugar and finally came around to it when the Hello Kitty collab was released. My sister and I both ordered the Hello Kitty Crush (sweet strawberry flavor chip, milk cream, and boba pearls). It was good, but I have never tried Tiger Sugar beforehand. So, it is hard to say how their traditional drinks are in comparison to this special drink. There is not parking at this location given it is nearby Pike Place Market. I would not go out of my way to come here unless I plan on being around the area. The shop itself is pretty small, little to no seating inside. Definitely a place to order and take it outside or elsewhere.

My first time here was for their Hello Kitty collaboration! I wasn't the first 10 for the free gift but I was able to get their bogo Hello Kitty Crush drink! The staff did an amazing job with this promotion. It couldn't have been easy with the line wrapped around and with little space to work with but they killed it. I would definitely want to come back to try their signature brown sugar boba milk and pearl with cream mousse!

Did I get this at the wrong time? I heard a lot of hype for this place opening because I had heard it was well known internationally, and I finally had a chance to go try it. I got a "Black Sugar Boba Black Tea Latte with Cream Mousse" today (Sunday) at 3pm, and while the liquid part was fine, the famous black tea boba was mediocre at best. The boba was completely bland with no sweetness at all, and they were softer than normal boba. This means that it didn't have the nice QQ texture you would expect. I drank the milk tea and tossed the majority of the boba.

This is a small boba place you can walk to by Pike Place Market. Inside, you won't be able to sit down. The place is nicely decorated with cool designs of tigers. There is a kiosk that you can order off of or you can order from the staff. The staff was friendly. Our orders was made in a timely manner. The drinks were okay. I got the store's signature black sugar boba #1. I felt like it didn't have that much sweetness and taste to it. Unfortunately you can't adjust the sweetness level here as well.

The place is a bit small, there is no seating if you were looking for a place to sit and chat! I think I remember seeing that you can't customize sugar or ice levels on their menu but not entirely sure. I ordered T1, the Golden Oolong Tea with Cheese Mousse. Went back to the hotel to drink this so the drink was already mixed. I really like this drink, it was very light and refreshing, while not being too sweet. The cheese mousse also made the drink very creamy and a teeny bit salty.

Small bubble tea shop in the middle of downtown. There is no place for sitting. You place your order in a machine. I ordered a passion fruit with mango jelly and a brown sugar boba pudding milk with cream mousse. My friend says the brown sugar boba is legit! I would agree that it's the best brown sugar boba I had yet in Seattle. The passion fruit was good but the brown sugar boba was the star thou. Would come back. Wish they had a different location.

My friend ordered the Black Sugar Boba + Pearl Milk w/ Cream Mousse. I ordered a Black Sugar Mochi Boba w/ Cream Mousse. Boba texture was chewy but had inconsistent sizing, not sure if they make the boba themselves. Nonetheless, great boba! My friend mentioned her drink was too sweet. I found my drink to be a perfect level of sweetness, I thought the mochi boba was interesting but grew to love it. The texture reminded me of marshmallow fluff but not as sticky or sweet. Staff were nice and helpful. Ambiance and decor were very modern and clean. When you enter Tiger Sugar, there is kiosk for you to browse the menu, select your drink(s), and pay. Staff was able to answer my friend's questions with no problems! I would visit again but I would not go out of my way given it's in downtown and parking can sometimes be a challenge!

So happy Tiger Sugar is in Seattle! We got #4 - Black Sugar Boba and Pearl Coffee Latte with Cream Mousse and #T5. Black Sugar Boba Black Tea Latte with Cream Mousse. We loved both! The pearls were so chewy and nicely coated w/ the syrups!!! Definitely check them out whenever you're in downtown Seattle / visiting Pike Place :)

The Lychee Bursting Boba Black Tea was phenomenal! I typically don't enjoy tea very much but this one tasted a bit sweeter, more like juice, so I really enjoyed it. Staff here was very sweet, kind, and efficient. I'll definitely be back!

First time ordering from here, staff were really sweet and helpful. The drink I got was T8 it was good not to sweet only thing I would say to improve is the boba. It was not as fresh, the texture was not chewy tastes like a day old. Other than that I would definitely come back to try other drinks.

Pretty okay drink. I wasn't amazed or anything but it was good. We ordered what seemed to be there classic brown sugar boba drinks with one having jelly in it. It's a really good creamy drink and I had various sizes of boba balls in mine which I really liked. There's two sizes and the smaller one is around $6 but not that big and the bigger one seems like what would be a regular size at most shops. I was done with my drink quickly and left fairly underwhelmed.

Really wanted to love it but the milk tea gets weird after you drink for awhile. Looks like they drop sugar cubes and taro cubes for the drink. Instead of it melting with the tea and milk, it turned into a shredded wheats cereal texture. Just not my cup of tea. Pun intended. Place is small and quick. No inside seating or large party waiting room. Menu was decent with only two sizes: Large or XL. Half the menu does not allow adjustments to sweetness but I did not find the beverage to be that sweet compared to other places. The milk was more creamy than expected but I liked that. Boba was warm and chewy - perfection. But again, I couldn't finish it due to the shredded wheat looking stuff everywhere.

The boys needed boba, so we walked a bit to tiger sugar after seeing the good reviews on yelp. Our cousin got the brown sugar boba, so picturesque! My brother ordered the strawberry mochi. It included a mixture of pearls and jellies. He didn't know that the drink itself didn't include tapioca pearls (boba), so he wasn't particularly pleased. It was his fault that he didn't ask but ya know, what can you do now. The drink is very different than anything he has every gotten. Thankfully, Tiger Sugar offers milk alternatives. But one of the downsides is that they only provide the drinks in XL, not small, medium , or large. ^@kamibites on Instagram

The first time I ever had Tiger Sugar was in NYC, and it blew me away with how good its brown sugar boba was. When I heard the news of Tiger Sugar opening up in Seattle, I was stoked. For around $14, we had ordered the #1 and #5 drinks. We thought that both drinks were delicious, and it was hard not to keep drinking more and more. The boba and other add-ins were a perfect combination with the milk tea. The only main different between the two were the toppings. Otherwise, the taste was overall the same. With how sweet the drink was (with it being brown sugar boba and all), I thought that the cup size was a good size. I would definitely recommend all brown sugar boba lovers to try this place out!!

I love tiger sugar! All their drinks are amazingly good. From their original, matcha, to just tea, I've never been disappointed. And they are always super quick with their drinks too! Will definitely be coming back to try and try everything off their menu

Tiger Sugar is your standard boba shop offering a variety of flavors with tons of modifications. It was pretty good, but to be honest it wasn't anything special. Given that Pike Place Market is only a few blocks away, it's worth getting food from there, since you can find boba shops like Tiger Sugar all over the country.

Fast, friendly, affordable. pretty good green tea. Nice that they let you adjust sweetness and ice levels. The boba was just a bit too under-cooked for my tastes.

I enjoy the tiger theme, ordered the #1 where the slogan is "brave like a tiger". Yes, it took a lot of bravery to get to the heart of downtown Seattle and attempt to find parking alright. But I went through that hassle because I remember having Tiger Sugar in Florida for the first time and how delicious the drinks were, was excited to get our first one here in Washington. Hopefully they eventually expand somewhere on the eastside. The shop is located right across from Target, you will have to either find street parking or buy something at Target to use their garage. It is a fairly small shop, not really any seating to hang out, more to a take out place. It's also not a standard for them to shake your drinks for you so make sure you shake it well otherwise you'll drink all the sugar at the bottom. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)

FYI boba here is the larger boba and pearl is mini-boba. Been waiting for Tiger Sugar in Seattle for so long. Had one poor experience outside the state but generally the drinks here are consistent and fantastic. I left Seattle right after Tiger Sugar opened so I missed out and was a bit bummed. I was not interested in waiting over an hour for their grand opening hype. This Tiger Sugar is pretty standard, akin to other Tiger Sugars from states like California or Las Vegas. Like normal Tiger Sugars, there's not a lot of customization or thinking needed. You pick one of their specialties and usually can't customize ice or sugar because it "ruins their recipe." Snagged a number 2. Black Sugar Boba + Pearl + Tiger Jelly Milk with Cream Mousse - sweet, caramelly brown sugar milk is creamy and delicious. Boba wasn't flavorful at all though. Just chewy without being marinated in brown sugar. You'll be relying on the drink itself for sweetness. Tiger jelly is like coffee jelly. Too much ice though, nearly half the cup is full of ice after drinking.

This is THE place to go for brown sugar boba. The only issue is parking. They're located in downtown Seattle so it's a huge headache to find parking. Especially to pick up boba to go. Their store is small essentially take out only. But the delicious drinks are worth it if you're in the area. We made a stop while visiting Pike Place. I got the black sugar boba with pudding which was ah-may-zing.

Best boba I have ever had. Do try their traditional brown sugar boba. I am huge fan of boba and I am always on look out for new boba spots in town or wherever I go. When Tiger Sugar announced that they are opening one in seattle, my friend recommended me to try this out. I am definitely not disappointed, the boba itself is very well made, never came across hard boba at this place. My only minor complaint is that their brown sugar series cannot be customizable in terms of ice or sugar. Highly recommend this place

First time I tried the novelty that was Tiger Sugar was... (fun fact) in Bangkok, where it was $2.50 for the classic signature drink. The cup was filled with ice, so I asked my friend that went to a Tiger Sugar before in Flushing, NY (which was a bit over $6 back then) and he commented that even over there, they put a boat load of ice. I wasn't really impressed with the drink, so I did not intend to try it again, but I decided to give it a second try here in Seattle. This spot was grand opening this past Saturday, June 18, but I avoid crowds and cannot put up with hours of waiting just for boba (with the crowds, they may cut corners with quality / mess up orders) so I decided to not make the visit anytime soon. However, today I got peer pressured cause Tiger Sugar was on the way. Barely any line (5 min wait max), and I got the #1 signature drink (black sugar boba + pearl milk with cream mousse). The drink is aesthetic, and you need to shake it so that the sweetness is relatively even. The drink actually is not super sweet which was a nice surprise, and unlike my first experience, they only filled the cup with 20% ice! I think a loooot of people give them a hard time and complain (especially the first few days of opening) that they gave way too much ice. Especially given that it is almost $7 for a drink here. I only gave 4 stars because it was "better than I expected." The drink itself is more like 3 stars, and it is definitely overhyped. There is a nice black sugar taste, but it was not necessarily creamy - it tasted just like regular milk.

Highly highly recommend getting the Mango Strawberry oolong tea at 100% sugar!! It is so refreshing. All of my friends agreed that was the best drink and I honestly was so close to ordering another one which rarely happens and I love boba. I get boba at least once per week #streetcred

I am in love and need to stay away from this place. It's too good. I might over-indulge. These are the kinds of things I've been telling myself. Yet also, "I'm going there later tonight" is something I've been saying to myself as well. Okay with that said and out there, I appreciate they use organic milk for their teas. And their teas are super creamy-yum....the burnt sugar syrup is sublime and transports me to a Maxfield Parish painting, in my mind. It's very close to tasting like Molasses, but not in a bitter way. It's all delicious and super full of tapioca pearls which send me to heaven. I'm going there later tonight. Oh, see, I said it again. Maybe this time my will power won't be strong enough.

My favorite boba place in seattle! I've had tiger sugar in vegas, and i am so glad we have it here too in seattle! Their tea was so creamy and tasty. (Got #1) I like the fact that their cup size isn't huge, because i have no self control when it comes to food I am not sure when they will switch to a full menu, but because they just opened, they only have like 7 menu items you can pick from. (Website menu isn't available just yet!) Definitely give it a try though :)

I used to wait in 20 min lines at Tiger Sugar in HK. It was among the best in the city. I'm glad that the Tiger Sugar here kept the same quality, but perhaps the business model and location isn't the best, and the vibe is lost. This place doesn't get that much business, and it's a tiny shop along the main road where the harsh sun shines into the windows. I say Tiger Sugar is a must try for anyone who has never had it, especially their famous brown sugar boba. The servers are very friendly and I'd love to support them. I just think this place deserves a much better location.

Never tried Tiger Boba tea (apparently its a huge international chain) so was excited when I read about their launch in Seattle. I avoid opening day/weekend because I am not interested to wait in line for 3hrs for boba so decided to give them a try on a weeknight. Was still surprised to see people out there on a Tuesday evening close to closing (8PM +). We ordered the below drinks: #2: Black Sugar Boba + Pearl + Tiger Jelly Milk with Cream Mousse (Tiger Jelly) #4: Best Seller: Black Sugar Boba + Pearl Coffee Latte with Cream Mousse (Tiger Meets Coffee) Both the drinks were good and coffee based so I liked it. But like several others have mentioned half or more than half the glass has ice so its really difficult to get through all your boba in the glass. Another problem for me is they do not let you customize their sugar/ice level so thats a bummer for me. Having said that I still liked the boba coffee drinks they had to offer and the bobas were flavorful. It is also pretty expensive as compared to other boba places in Seattle area which offer much more variety in terms of boba drinks and also let you customize your drinks. Considering these are coffee based boba drinks, I will need to stay away from these in the evening so that limits me from visiting them when I have boba cravings in the second half. It is a nice small tiny place in Seattle downtown with no place to sit and I am sure this place can get pretty crowded on weekends. I will stop by this place when I am in the mood for coffee flavored boba.

I got the number 2, loved the jelly, drink was decent, middle of the line. I had higher hopes for this place, but there's better boba in Seattle. It cost around $7.30 for the large size (comes in large and XL) after tax. I think getting the XL upgrade is a better deal tbh. Not too sweet, but not watered down. No seating area, small space to order and wait for your drink. I would stop by if I'm walking around and I come upon it, but I would not go out of my way to come back.

Honestly one of the better tiger sugars I've been to. The ratios are perfect and wasn't too sweet. The mochi was soft and the mini pearls were great. I am definitely stopping by one more time before I'm leaving Seattle. Service was fast.

Tiger Sugar finally opened in Seattle! Went to try it out and waited in a small line outside the small storefront to place my order. For many drinks, the signature black sugar syrup is artfully dripped inside the cup and milk tea is added to create a swirled effect. Ordered Black Sugar Boba Green Tea Latte with Cream Mousse - which apparently is one of the drinks that does not have the swirled syrup effect. Remember to mix your drink before you drink, to make sure the sugar is evenly distributed. Enjoyed the tea, but it was a bit too sweet because of the amount of sugary syrup that was added.

I used to live near the Tiger Sugar location in NYC, so as a fan, I was excited to see it come to Seattle! This time, we ordered the #1 (signature) and #5 (pudding and cream). Unfortunately, the boba didn't live up to it's NYC counterpart -- both times I went, the consensus was that it had a fairly standard taste and presentation, similar to what you can find from brown sugar milk teas at other boba shops. The toppings are fun, but other places have also started having a bigger variety of toppings, making this place feel more overpriced for what you get. On the plus side, it doesn't have the insane down-the-block lines like the NYC location -- service was very quick. It's a small location with a counter and no seating, but nicely decorated. Overall, not a bad drink if you're in the area and have a brown sugar boba craving, but in my opinion not worth venturing out specifically for. (Photos are of the boba we got in NYC vs the ones we got in Seattle)

I've been driving with a "new driver" sticker on my car for over 3 years, because I'm so anxious when I drive. Which means that driving to Seattle is a nightmare for me. However, I would drive for Tiger Sugar boba every weekend. This stuff is the actual crack Böba for me. The best brown sugar I've had in such a long time, this place does it right! The boba was pleasantly chewy, and the drink was decadent without being too sweet. I requested the pudding boba with oat milk, and it was still creamy and rich! My husband had the chocolate malt version which was equally delightful. Next time, I'd probably request light ice and buy a second one for the road.

They have really smooth bubble tea. Probably cuz the stuff they use here is quality ingredients. We ordered #T7 which is green tea milk tea. Very tasty. Next time we will do X large size drinks!

A new-ish boba shop nestled into the heart of Downtown -- I've heard great things about this store, but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. It's important to note that it's more of a milk-based boba drink rather than one with tea. As someone who prefers a strong tea flavor, I didn't feel super strongly about the taste since it was more of a chocolate milk flavor. Which, if that's what you're looking for, is great -- but not so much for me. They have a pretty limited menu and you aren't allowed to adjust the sweetness for their core offerings, so I felt like my drink was a bit too much on the sweet side. I liked that they had the option for hot drinks, though! The boba wasn't anything impressive, and I felt like they weren't too chewy and just kind of fell apart. I'd give this place another go with the fruit drinks -- I had my eye on a mango sago one which looked tasty. For the price and the taste, though, I'm not sure this will be added to my normal rotation.

Good drinks, good service. I tried their signature 1. drink and it lived up to my expectation. Highly recommend and will be back!

It's finally here! I first had Tiger Sugar in Vegas and I fell in love with it. My fave is the number 5, which is the Tiger sugar boba and pudding milk with cream mousse. It's slightly different than the one I had in Vegas but it's still good! There's still a line but the wait is not that long. Service seems to be pretty quick.

Finally got to try Tiger Sugar for the first time and my initial reaction is that it's pretty good, not great. I ordered the signature drink Brown Sugar Boba Milk + Pearl with Cream Mousse. First off, the milk base is slightly creamy but not super rich. Basically tastes like sweet milk with no real identifying flavor. The boba was weird because they varied in size. I had some very tiny boba pearls and also some regular sized ones. I'm not sure if this is how Tiger Sugar makes their drinks or mine just happened to be like that. The most disappointing thing was the lack of brown sugar flavor. I didn't get any taste of brown sugar - the drink just tasted sweet. Perfect amount of sweetness though. They only have L and XL size. I got a L and paid $6.56 in total after taxes.

This Tiger Sugar is a small little spot--tastes just the same as the first ones in LA. There are no changes that can be made on the drinks (i.e. I tried to order double boba) but it's consistent with all other locations as well. I ordered the black sugar boba which is what they're known for. The drink it not too sweet & the boba is super chewy. Give it a try! The area is not the safest to walk around @ night, but that's pretty much all of Seattle.
