“ Its rare for a milk tea cafe to astonish me with something beyond what you can typically get from a Quickly or Kung Fu Tea, but Boba Baba was able to do that with its expertlyblended milk teas and coffee drinks, Chick FilAesque customer service, and its inviting ambiance. It had been about 3 years since we last visited Boba Baba. We frequent this area by High House Rd. in Cary because of the HMart and always see this cafe every time we pass by but since our last visit, we never really bothered to give it another try probably because I just saw Boba Baba as another generic milk tea cafe when I tried it for the first time. I remember ordering a Strawberry Matcha Latte back then, and although I enjoyed its taste, I saw it as something I can easily find from other milk tea cafes. My teen brother Jonah has been to Boba Baba more than me and tried more kinds of milk tea here, and he once told me when we were in Brecotea that Boba Babas brown sugar milk tea is the ultimate measure to compare other cafes brown sugar milk tea. I wasnt really into brown sugar milk tea when he told me that, so I thought he didnt know better. It turned out, Jonah was 100 right. I just tried the Babas Brown Sugar Boba in our visit last Saturday night. My girl got the Coffee Milk Tea. The ambiance of the cafe made us want to stay. Unlike the dreadful ambiance of Tiger Sugar in Cary just right across this cafe, Boba Babas open space looks more welcoming. The minimalistic aesthetic of the welllit and clean cafe shows that Boba Baba truly cares about customer experience. However, theres one thing that annoyed me Boba Babas overhead menu, which also looked minimalistic but in an unpleasant way The blue screens showing a list of items looked dull, with no photos of drinks it resembled an airports arrivaldeparture panel instead of what youd expect from a classy cafe. Also, the boba cups they use are nowhere close to the highquality cups of Milklab Feng Cha. The barrista who took our order was Nico he was a friendly young man who took our orders well, and explained Boba Babas Satisfaction Guaranteed policy, which gives its customers the option to get a replacement drink if they were not satisfied with the first one. Thats the first time I heard from a milk tea cafe, and I appreciate how Boba Baba truly cares about what the customers want. Babas Brown Sugar is currently my 1 most recommended milk tea in the Triangle, NC, and trust me, Ive tried a good amount in recent years. I recommend getting the large size, light ice, 75 sugar. The salted creme brulee truly sets the standard for premium brown sugar milk teas. This is the 2nd time I tried creme brulee in a brown sugar milk tea The first time was in Feng Cha in Morrisville, and although I enjoyed Feng Chas blend, Boba Baba was surprisingly more satisfying to me probably because I could taste more of its creme brulee whereas Feng Chas seemed to have less of it. The perfect texture of the tapioca pearls also made the the milk tea a blast to devour. It went well with the wellbalanced mix of salted creme brulee, brown sugar, and milk tea. I could taste the sweet brown sugar flavor and the creamy creme brulee, but it wasnt too sweet. It might be too sweet if sweetness level is set to 100. Boba Baba ay not have astonished me in my first visit 3 years ago, but the 2nd time is a charm, probably because this time, I chose what is likely the cafes best milk tea. We havent tried the cream puffs mochi donuts yet, so we might try those next time we go, which will definitely be sooner than 3 years. Boba Baba is the 6th milk tea cafe that made it to my Yelp Collection of Best Milk Tea Cafes in the Triangle NC bit.lybestmilkteaNC ”
“ This place is super cute and it was quite refreshing! They have samples of tea at the front along with cups available for purchase. I got the peach or mango Matcha latte and it was really good! Make sure you stir the drink before consuming because everything settles at the bottom. Really good drink! I also got the Matcha cream puff and OMG talk about flavor!!! The cream on the inside was smooth and light. It tastes like something you get from a french bakery. The staff members were super attentive and patient with my indecisiveness and order selection. Great place to try something new and healthy! Try them out ”
“ Great boba place, clean store. Boba drink selection and taste are great. Mochi donuts are the best so far I found in RDU. Staffs are always super friendly and helpful! ”
“ Overall Score 6.910 A creative and unique food truck experience backed by a friendly team, offering great flavor and value, reviewed here in place of their main store. Atmosphere and Service 7.210 The truck itself is eyecatching and has a fun, original vibe. The team running it was welcoming and made the experience enjoyable. The concept is unique and wellexecuted, giving it a standout feel even without a traditional storefront. Mango Rice Milk Tea 6.910 A flavorful and wellbalanced drink where no single flavor overpowered the other. The mango taste leaned slightly lighter than expected and didnt include real fruit pieces, but the blend still worked really well. The boba had a bolder flavor compared to other spots, making it stand out. The portion felt a bit limited due to the amount of ice and boba, but the value and taste were both satisfying. ”
“ Not my favorite, but decent boba tea at a fair price. I got the Boba Baba brown sugar tea. Not too sweet, tender boba and the creme brulee finish on top was cute. Bits of crunchy brown sugar here and there. Good location and service was fine. Have to try their mochi donuts next time. Ambiance could be better. Felt dull. ”
“ One of the better boba spots in the Triangle. Service is always quick and easy to get in and out. I like that you can adjust sweetness levels on the drinks too! ”
“ My wife and I love this place. It has a great atmosphere great service and we love the tea. No lie the egg rolls are the best with homemade sweet and sour sauce what. Its just great. ”
“ I absolutely LOVE boba baba. I think in terms of tea quality, they are top tier in the triangle area. So much so that I actually had boba baba cater my wedding and they were super professional and nice to work with. My go to drinks are their matcha or HK milk tea! They also have a really nice space with lots of tables to hang out at. People even bring their laptops to do some work. I dont think theres a lot of outlets though so thats my one warning. ”
