TNL Boba is a very fun and uplifting place to be in. As soon as you enter TNL Boba the enthusiasm of the shop owner is contagious. The lively music just add to the experience. He was great at directing us in which drinks would be best and the speed with which he made them was impressive. We were lucky enough to get here right when they opened at 10 and a crowd quickly followed after us. Can't recommend this place enough. You don't just get a drink you get a small work of art. Drink worthy mango smoothie, Horchata with Boba, Vietnamese coffee with Boba, Matcha with Boba and oat milk blended. If you're looking for something refreshing and uplifting during your hot summer days TNL Boba is the place to go.

I've been the biggest fan of TNL boba for years now and i haven't came here in a while since it's a little further from my home. Usually I get the tasty beautiful smoothies with boba but today i got the milk tea with boba for the first time. Unfortunately, my drink tasted more like Tea than the "horchata" flavor I ordered. Sadly, my boba was a little hard as well / hard to chew. Although my drink wasn't as expected though , I'm still going to give them another chance because not only are their prices more affordable or the owner there is super sweet but they really pay attention to detail when it comes to the quality of their drinks and the fresh fruit they use for their drinks. As well as the beautiful presentation of what they sell showing they put effort into what they make. Only thing I really wish is that they either made seating inside or outdoor seating because the sun was beaming on us while we were waiting outside for our drinks.

I stopped by this spot and ordered an Horchata milk tea with 50% sweetness and boba. I liked that it wasn't overly sweet and had just a hint of horchata. However, today's (06/18/2024) boba had the texture of day old boba -- not soft and chewy, but more on the hard side, kind of chalky center with a gel like exterior. I thought the cup was adorable and sturdy! The lid is pretty resilient too! It took a couple of tries to puncture the lid with my straw. This is great so that your drink doesn't spill. Just be sure to puncture a large enough opening or you'll deal with vacuum suctioning.

Headed home from a mini vacation and was looking for milk tea. Saw this place and was glad they offered sea salt cream as a topping. Its a tiny place - to go only - but the guy helping us was sooo nice. We ended up getting the rose milk tea with salt cream & pudding and brown sugar milk tea with boba. The pudding is super tasty its more like a flan texture. Our drinks came out fast and were so flavorful. They have a wide range of drinks. Currently they sell hello kitty tumblers which are VERY cute so stop by if youre in the area!

Stumbled across this gem as we were on our way to CarMax visiting from LA. The gentleman in the front exuded top notch customer service. It was a delightful visit at TNL. We ordered the Lychee slush with boba, Mango slush with boba and the Passionfruit Ice Tea with boba. All bursting with delicious flavors. I wish we took photos. Gives us a reason to drive to TNL in the near future. Thank you TNL!

I should've taken a picture, but I got the Butterfly Thai sea cream drink (Instead of sea cream, I opted for whipped cream) omg DELICIOUS!!! I was in the area and I really wanted to try a new place and saw this drink picture which really caught my eye. And it did not disappoint! What probably made the drink even better was that I added pandan flan as the topping instead of boba (best decision ever!) It added another element to the milk tea flavor. The drink tasted like a fruit loops cereal. Every slurp had some pandan flan and it was sooo well balanced. The only strange part was that I ordered the drink with 'no ice' but the drink came out kinda hot. However, they accommodated and put ice cubes in the drink which turned out ok. Overall, I'd give this drink a 8.5 with potential 9.5/10 and I rarely give any boba drink over 8.5 so it's saying a lot! This particular drink could potentially be in my top 5 boba type drinks ever if I order it correctly next time. If I'm ever in the area, I would totally get it again but with 100% sugar (their sweetness levels are on point unlike most other places where 100% is waaaay too sweet) and I would get it much earlier in the day cuz the caffeine level is pretty strong! It's 2:30am and I'm still wired. Wooo! And I also wanted to say that as I was waiting for my order, I got to see what other people ordered and I saw very unique drinks I've never seen at a boba shop. Everything looked so good and I was very impressed by the creativity and variety of selections of REAL fruit slushees. This place is legit!
