Hula Boba

Visit #1: We're almost never in Kapolei and we were craving boba, and this was the nearest boba place. I'm glad it was, though, because it was a steal! $6 for a giant cup, and the topping bar offered so much, plus it was free (because we stayed under the first line). The only thing is that I was so excited that I forgot to ask for 50% sugar, and our eyes were bigger than our stomachs. A well-deserved 4.7 stars! Visit #2: We came back just for a cup of tea from here. I wanted the lavender milk tea but I wanted to drink a smoothie, so I asked if they could make a lavender tea smoothie. They did so without a problem (thanks again, guys!) and I can't see why it's not more popular. The lavender milk tea is delicious! Visit #6: The lychee smoothie tastes like they use canned lychee, which I like. I seldom order it myself but always steal sips from family members who do. Visit #9: Do not order any smoothie with the strawberry flavor. It tastes unpleasant and artificial. Visit #15: Neither the Signature nor the Thai teas are good by themselves, but the Tiger tea is a combination of both and it's great. Visit #24: If you don't know what to get, Ube Monster with tapioca pearls, grass jelly, brown sugar jelly, and/or aloe. Visit #37: The cup size has gone from huge to comparable to other boba places. Sometimes they'll make a milk tea into a smoothie, while other times they won't. Inconsistent and depends on who's serving. (I've actually lost count of how many times I've been since Visit 1. The numbers have no basis in reality.)

I love the drinks. the size for the price is just right. it would be better if they asked about preferences for the drinks, like the sweetness level, ice, etc, because I forgot and my drinks were too sweet. haha but other than that, friendly service, good drinks. they also sell bowls of noodles for $1.00 each, and various snacks, which is cool. complementary (not to be confused with complimentary) foods with your drink 👍

My kids and I love this boba cafe. They have a variety of toppings, known as "pearls", such as chewy tapioca balls, popping boba, fruit jelly, and even a coffee jelly! The option to adjust levels of sweetness in my milk tea is nice. My children also enjoy coming here because aside from boba they sale a nice variety of snacks. Overall there customer service has always been amazing and the establishment is CLEAN! 😁
