Best boba place, so many flavors and good prices definitely recommend the fruit spritzers they come with fresh fruit and very delicious

I love Wow! I feel like the quality of ingredients is much better. If you order an avacado bubble tea, its going to be actual avacado. Something thats more unique to Wow are the smoothies. So good! They have a bunch of flavors and custom combos. My favorites are the Tropical Teaser, Black Beauty and Cookies & Taro. Now if only they werent closed everytime I happen to be in the area 😞

WOW! Bubble tea is the only place with ginger bubble tea in Seattle that actually has a serious ginger flavor. My favorite place!

Really tasty boba tea and I do recommend this shop. I knocked off a star because the customer service was a bit lacking. I had some questions about the menu, which is extensive, and I the person behind the counter wasn’t very friendly. But the tea itself was delicious and I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that they were just having a bad day and come back to try some more of the menu.

My mango drink started to separate. I told the the person that made it. Instead of making another one the right way. He told me that was normal and I need it to shake it. Which is nonsense. Im a bubble tea head and I know for a fact that shouldnt happened.

They have a plentiful selection of tea, smoothies and frozen yogurt. The mango milk tea is really amazing, either cold or hot. And the service is smooth. Fast and quick. Definitely recommend it in a cold winter night.

The best bubble tea my wife and I have had since moving to Washington. This has become our go-to. The staff are friendly, their boba and jellies are delicious, and they have a ton of options! Plus its nice to support a locally owned business. Keep it up Wow!

One of my favorite bubble tea places. They definitely make some tasty beverages here! I like the starburst or POG, but Ive tried a lot of the flavors and havent had one I havent liked. Its also a great place to hang out and relax while enjoying a drink.

This place is by far the best to get bubble tea. I built my own and it was just amazing. The guy there was super helpful and really patient. I went with my friend and we had separate orders so he kept theres In the freezer while mine was being made. Highly recommend this place A +++++++

My son got the hot black milk tea with Boba & it was yummy! I got the Brown Sugar Milk Tea but with almond milk instead because Im lactose intolerant and it tasted good but not as good as the one made with regular milk. Ill bring my lactose pills next time when we come back.

You can really feel the presence of Jesus Christ when you walk in to this establishment and especially when you take that first delicious sip of your drink. Real fruit smoothies. As real as our lord and savior.

Wow is a classic bubble tea spot for any college student. They have plenty of flavor options in both normal and blended options. Its a fun, clean place to hang out and they have board and card games to play as well.

Review №35

Very chill environment, staff are knowledgeable and very kind and helpful. Natural smoothies are prime. Caribbean dream is a must try. Texture of drink is good, but the pearls can be a bit undercooked. A bit better than the average.

Review №36

This is my favorite place for bubble tea in the U-District. Its a great place to sit and do homework, they have an exstensive collection of drinks and yogurt, and the people who work here are always so kind. I highly recommend this place

Jo
Review №37

I love a place that lets me do my thing when it comes to flavors, mixing and always getting something new without regret. Quick and clean service, the owners are friendly and welcoming when Im in. The game selection they have is massive and Ive had plenty of nights where me and my 10+ friends have had a blast till closing. Late night U-District must-go when Im in the area.

Review №38

Service a tad slow but the bubble tea was still worth it. Earl Grey lavender and mango bubble tea recommend.

Review №39

I cannot say enough good things about this place. They are friendly, helpful, and will walk you through the concept of Bubble tea. If you have never had bubble tea before, or just enjoy quality bubble tea, this is a great place to go! They have games to borrow for those who want to meet up and just hangout for a bit (Jenga seems to be the most popular), and they have very clean bathrooms. I will give a warning that they do have Christian undertones in the form of a Bible verse on the top of the Bubble tea cup (not included with hot tea) it can easily be ignored. If you are just looking for some top quality bubble tea COME HERE!

On my very first trip to Seattle, I visited Wow Bubble Tea after walking around nearby University of Washingtons campus (which is beautiful in the Spring with all the cherry blossoms). I am a huge fan of bubble tea and after experiencing Wow, I hold all other bubble tea places in the US to Wows high standard. Its a quirky small shop that sells dozens of types of bubble tea. I recommend the straight up bubble milk bubble tea and then enjoy it while relaxing on the couches inside. Its AMAZING!

I got frozen yogurt here. Its average frozen yogurt but incredibly expensive for the amount you get. Citra across the street tastes better and is cheaper. The owner is also a very nice Korean lady so recommend heading across the street

My favorite place for bubble tea/tapioca smoothies in the US! They use fresh fruit instead of powder. This is a must stop every time I am in town.

A small boba shop near UW. Theres a ton of flavors to choose from and you have lots of options to choose for toppings. Some that I hadnt seen before so it was really special.

This is the best place I know of to get bubble tea in the Seattle area. Ive been to lots of bubble tea joints in and around Seattle, and WOW is hands down the best place Ive gone so far! Also the staff is very friendly and has great menu suggestions.

Easily the best service when it comes to bubble tea joints. I dont always get my bubble tea here cause I like the way Oasis does it. But its a really nice place to hang out with other college students.

Delicious bubble teas and great service. They keep any preordered teas cold in their storage cooler already bagged and ready to go with straws already in the bag. Delicious flavors and good prices.

Great milk tea (hot and cold) that isnt too sweet and has the sweetest family that runs it. Popular/crowded in the evenings, and calm/low-peak on weekday afternoons.

The area was cozy, but the Black Milk Tea was not so good. It was watery and the tapioca was a bit too chewy.

Hot matcha milk tea with boba makes even the dreariest Seattle day more palatable. Wish this place were closer to campus! Love that sugar levels are customizable, and the music is great (usually CCM).

Review №79

I got regular milk tea with tapioca, and it was ok. nothing special, I liked how they make not too sweet on that one though. However, my friend ordered taro milk tea with tapioca, and it was pretty bad. It didnt taste like taro at all, you can taste only slightly taro flavor but its so fake and very sweet. It was just bad. and you will hear only Jesus songs in there! I dont think I will go back there again.

Review №80

Theyve got a weird emphasis on religion but they make the best bubble tea.

Jo
Review №81

Hands down best bubble tea Ive had to date. Peach papaya combo is extremely good and they dont have bits of crushed ice mixed in [like other places] leaving the consistency to actually be a smoothy. They also have boardgames and whatnot, the only downside is the couches arent the comfy-ist. I almost broke a buttcheek sitting down hard on it.

Review №82

Milk tea was grainy and bitter, no matter how much I mixed it or doctored it with sweetener. Wouldn’t recommend

My girlfriend order a bubble tea smoothy and the cashier got it wrong. We end up getting a milk tea, once we noticed we had the wrong order we went back to the cashier.Cashier blamed us for nothing checking our order and another dude that seemed to be the boss started talking to the cashier in their lenguage. They rudely refused to give us another drink even though we were going to pay for it.Horrible place... dont recommend it. Better services few blocks down.

I have only been once, it was delicious. I had what was called bold greek yogurt but it must have been mislabeled, because it was %100 without-a-doubt Booberry-flavored yogurt. Their fresh fruit selection was great, and there was a large amount of sugary toppings (which, come on, is why youre getting froyo) so all in all it was good.
