Crema's Take
“Tucked in Capitola, this charming cafe surprises visitors with genuinely excellent Taiwanese boba that strikes that elusive perfect balance between chewy and tender—a detail that even the most discerning boba enthusiasts appreciate. Beyond the stellar boba drinks, the welcoming staff and Instagram-worthy aesthetic create a relaxed family-friendly spot where both specialty creations and traditional drinks land well, making it worth a random stop-by.”

Milk tea boba drink with no tea..and I've got popping biba mixed with milk that doesn't form one liquid. How mad or stupid can it be????
Surprisingly delicious boba drinks can be found here. Their name didn't give me that impression about anything about boba drinks. I stopped by just randomly and found boba drinks to be so good. Enjoy!
Nice decor, good vibes, and aesthetically pleasing. The young lady behind the counter was polite & speedy about taking my order and making my drink. The boba was delicious, though the tea was too watery in my opinion.
They said their boba is from Taiwan. I am extremely picky about boba. I can say it’s well done. It is chewy and not too hard. I am was too thirsty so no pictures of my boba tea .
A nice little cafe that was cutely decorated. Owner was very sweet and friendly. I got the mango smoothie + boba and my mom and brother got a tropical smoothie and black milk tea with boba. All were solid options but the mango smoothie was the winner! The smoothies were made with fresh fruit and the tapioca was well made and a good pairing. Especially, for boba in Santa Cruz/Capitola hard to ask for anything better!
