Frequently asked questions about It's Boba Time
It's Boba Time Fullerton Reviews
Love this place! They always have my order ready to be picked up. The only thing I don't like I'd their app..it doesn't have an option for extra sweet if you want it on your order.
My drinks always taste great. This location consistently maintains good quality.
Always a treat to come here. Also just discovered the add-ons list which makes it probably my favorite place to stop in for a drink.
It was an absolute blast being in this store, the worker there Erica was a delight. We had the most engaging and enjoyable conversation that ran smoothly, not to mention the picture perfect customer service and the best interaction I've ever had. Erica you deserve a raise and more, 10/10 can't wait to engage more, if anyone disagrees they are nothing short of a buffoon. I think a lot of people out there will agree with me when I say that Erica is a chill and charming person. Will be recommending this location to all my friends in the area 🤭🫶
I have been there 4 times and will continue to go to them. The lady up front is so sweet and very helpful and their drinks are so good, the boba is always fresh and has a great taste. My car broke down in their parking lot and they offered me help which was incredibly sweet of them. Cant wait to go back!
So many variety of flavors. I like the taro milk tea and my daughter likes the sunset. The place is always clean and the staff is friendly and helpful and knowledgeable about their drinks.
They have avocado smoothie! Not a lot of boba places have that. It's so creamy, hard to try new things. Taro is the O.G favorite and their watermelon is refreshing! *now serving fries & chicken*
Is a great place with great selection. Waiting time to order is about 10 min. Drink flavors are exquisite! I will recomend this place It would be nice if they add a cashier 100% taking orders to speed up the waiting time ordering!
My favorite location. I love their jalapeno poppers! Although the last time I went they were out of stock... But I hope I can get some next time ☺️
The pasta here has been my go to for years, it’s never too oily or dry, the sauce is amazing and the chicken was delicious
Came here for an office pick me up and the drinks were good. Ordered ahead so it was easy to go in and out.
They have good variety of teas and smoothies. I ordered Peach Fruit Tea. It cane with bits of fruit in it. Boba is not too chewy either. Very good preparation 👍. Download their app for rewards.
I stopped here because I was early to the Amtrak Train station across the street. I ordered the pistachio frappe which doesn't have caffeine. There were baked, candied pistachios to mix throughout. They stayed crunchy through the 20 minutes it took to me to drink. I also ordered a 6 pack of fresh macaroons to go. They were packaged so well, they made the train, bus and car ride in a backpack to my destination pretty well. I have not eaten many macaroons before, but these were very sweet and fluffy in texture. The outside was light and crispy. They are the best ones I have had so far. There is someone with a peanut allergy on my trip who was able to eat the chocolate maccaroon. Thanks for the super quick 3 minute ticket time and friendly service!
I was craving boba milk tea and It’s Boba Time did not let me down! I ended up ordering myself lavender milk tea with boba which was the right ratio of the floral and milk. Most importantly, the boba was chewy which means it is FRESH!
Great place to hangout, work, and study. Boba is affordable and good, also, snacks are pretty cheap too. Expect to spend around 4 dollars for a drink and around 10 for a snack and drink combo. Clean place with great hosts! Parking is also available right by the shop. This place often gets busy after 5. So, I would recommend to be there a bit before to get your spot!
The Matcha green tea smoothie was really great! The Thai tea smoothie was also great! Not many places will blend Thai teas. Thank you for that! The lady who worked on Sunday, was also super nice-9-7-19. It's nice when people are pleasant.
Is Boba just Boba? While one might think so, BobaTime takes the taste and service to the next level. Besides the color being bright, the flavors are top end! If you are looking to explore a bit with your choice, I highly recommend giving the honeydew flavor a chance. It is not too overpowering but also recognizable enough that you are satisfied; likely wanting to go back for a bigger size. The location is super convenient if you are in the Downtown Fullerton area, as you have access from a big parking lot or street friendly parking. Staff is very friendly and polite as well:)
I really love my Favorite Strawberry banana smoothie they never Disappoint me. My sister adore the yogurt she love it so much she was mad each time I try take a bite. Service was fantastic they make sure They got everything. 100% Recommend
The blue sky milk tea is so good. :) And I love how they have strawberry boba. The egg pudding is pretty good as well. My order was made within several minutes.
Came here with my daughter. I got the strawberry matcha tea with boba...my daughter got the peach strawberry fruit tea with boba .. They do not charge extra for the boba. The staff is very friendly. The drink was so good and refreshing. The strawberry was so good and I love matcha...we both got a large. 4.95 each. I would for sure go again.

Good tea. Got the earl gray and it was just the type of flavor I was in the mood for
Friendly & helpful staff. Great taro milk tea with perfectly made boba. Honestly, it's probably the best boba I've had in my time drinking milk tea. They weren't too hard or too soft, perfect amount of chewiness.
10/10! A must try. Love the selection and options. Their service is amazing and the staff is super friendly. The drinks aren’t overwhelmingly sweet and the boba is so good! Definitely and highly recommend this place to anyone wants to chill or just grab a boba in the area. I am a customer for life!
Probably the best BobaTime I've ever been to. Boba was perfect, drink was great, and service was fast. There's a register and a digital ordering system, and it's wheelchair accessible and both large and cozy. Definitely worth going to, even if you've been to a BobaTime before.
This Boba Time is top notch, and I mean Incredibly top notch. Not only are their drinks consistent and delicious, but they never make mistakes…NEVER! I ordered DoorDash from this location for myself and my coworkers in which our order had 11 drinks (I know a large order for boba right). I fully expected it to take longer than normal considering the size of the order. OH but this was not the case. 11 drinks 11 minutes. That’s all it took. It’s like they knew what we were going to order before we even placed it. It really doesn’t get better than this. 1 drink per minute is other-worldly, and the workers responsible for this are going far in life I can garuntee it. Thank you boba time Fullerton for your dedication to the boba craft.
Ximena was seriously the sweetest!! Her customer service was the best I've ever had at this location. Grateful for her service!! 2/9/26 7:11pm

I recently visited BobaTime and was really impressed by the friendly staff and delicious boba drinks. The only issue I had was with the tight parking lot - if you drive an SUV, it can be a bit of a squeeze to get in and out of your car. My tip for other customers is to order ahead of time and just do a pick-up to avoid any parking hassles. Overall, I had a great experience at BobaTime and will definitely be returning for more tasty boba drinks!
Really cute place to go and grab a Boba drink. My daughter loved it. 4 stars for having the wrong order and we had to wait longer, but over all great drinks. They have a large variety here too and they have alot of flavor blends.
Great service today! Bina was prepared well, not perfection but still better than average. Honey green milk tea was great with a splash of milk instead of creamer. Strawberry Peach Green tea had pieces of mango which was delicious. Thai tea was fresh brewed, strong and rich with a nice touch of sweet. The girl who took my order was especially friendly and appreciative of the business.
Came in for the BOGO deal and ordered 2 matcha milk teas for the price of 1. A steal for $4.75 and the staff are pretty friendly. Plenty of seating and yeah, it’s their Grand Opening in Fullerton. I believe they have a location in Buena Park too.

Boba tastes really watered down. Visited twice and got different drinks each time thinking we were unlucky the first time. Nope.
Ordered a Mocha Frappe and Caramel Frappe, both had no flavor and ended up throwing them away. Never again to this place
Smoothie base not vegan Drink plastic cover not placed properly, cause a spill Boba pearls were flavourless, actually it did have a flavour, bitter water. Came here bc Ding Tea was closed already and Cha2o is still closed. Hope next time I come things go better.
Order via post mates - didn’t get half of the order we ordered. The stuff we did get was just your typical fake syrup, over sweetened mediocre tea. Competition for boba is hot in this area - go down the street and you’ll find way better tea.
It was my first time to come to this location & I was very disappointed. When we got at the counter, I only saw 2 staff working, & yes, they were busy... BUT none of them greeted us, nor told us that "they will be with us in a moment!" Instead I had to asked one of them if it was a self-service counter, because there was a self check-in computer on the counter. Since we were not really that tech-savy, that's why we asked. One of the staff answered that they were busy (we already knew they were busy because I could see them with my own 2 eyes)! Again, the least they could have done was to tell us that "they will be with us in a moment!" This is called CUSTOMER SERVICE! I guess these staff were not trained in Customer Service. I love the Boba of this place but not the staff of this location. Will never come back to this location!
do not come if you want to study because you will get interrogated by an employee who will interrogates you whether or whether or not you've had a drink or an order this has happened to me twice by the same employee when I had no evidence of my order because I've threw the order away a minute or two prior. Could do without the Sass and or attitude..

I can't believe I even half to give these people a star so I'm going to write a bad review, on Wednesday night, February 8th when they were closing, I was forced to by something I didn't even want to use the restroom by some rookie that works there, after paying for the worst coffee, they give me the wrong code to open it and had to get another employee to open the door, and when I was leaving the manager said there was no sugar or creamer for the coffee... Who runs a place like that, literally the worst service I've ever seen
Last week I came to get some boba with my partner. He had asked one of the women if she could get water since he wasn't allowed to bring his water cup back behind the counter and she said he could only have one cup of water and so he agreed and as we waited she, not even a second later was mocking him about asking to fill up his water jug??? They are just laughing basically in our faces about some water. Ridiculous. He had got a pistachio matcha and when he had told me it didn't taste like either pistachio or matcha I went back to tell them the issue and was met with a very RUDE employee saying "what do you mean" as if I didn't just say that it didn't taste like anything. So she told me if she remakes it and it still tastes like that then it's "just the drink" and so the new drink tasted fine according to my partner but I just found the service here to be very rude and immature.
the space is great and employees are friendly, but the service is in need of improvement. They cashier explained to me how the drinks are made and proceeded to explain to me that I cant pay for a syrup or change the flavor of a latte that isnt premade. Then I somehow got less than what I asked for even though I spoke clearly and confirmed. A little more management in the front maybe, or more concentration on what customer service really means. Kinda lost on how a lot of these branches would rather lose customers than do a little more than the basics. I really loved this place too
I am forced to give a star when they actually lost points Wednesday the 8th of February closing time should never be allowed to work all together unsupervised without an adult. They pick and chose who they want to serve sugar, sweet&low, creamer and they are a boba place which means they serve coffee. So me and my bf have never been so disrespected by a bunch of kids. They wouldn’t allow us to use the restroom when we asked and offered them the only cash we had a dollar and so we had to go outside and beg for change. So we witnessed them let some other couple right in front of us use the restrooms without purchasing anything and once we paid for something they still wouldn’t give us the correct code for the restroom we had to wait for one of them to open it with a key
the workers here have horrible attitude for absolutely no reason at all.
Workers were fine until they messed up our order. We kindly let them know after we got our drinks that it was the wrong one, but they refused to replace it/refund it with the right one due to policy. The workers antagonized us and blamed us for being at fault for not properly checking the order or the receipt (which we did not get.) I hope anyone who comes here never has to deal with the three workers on staff like we did.
PLEASE DO NOT BUY DRINKS HERE! We were enjoying boba time as a FAMILY until a METAL WIRE got stuck in my mouth (gums) that needed to be removed. We are sincerely disgusted and horrified that we have been drinking this toxic drink. Especially given that fact kids were also drinking your highly hazardous drink, I am more than furious and disappointed.

I came here in the evening on July 23rd and the worker on register with the pale orange/yellow beanie was very rude to my friend who was still looking at the menu. After being all haughty and hounding her about ordering, he tried to call over the customers behind her and they were still looking at the menu so he rolls his eyes and doesn’t come back to the register at all. Just so much attitude and so unfriendly from the start and for no reason. Then he made my drink and instead of pushing it to the edge of the hand off station like I saw the other employee was doing so that customers could actually reach it, he places the drink and my straw right next to the machine and walks away, leaving me to reach for it. I ordered on the kiosk so I didn’t even have a personal interaction with him but I’m sure he saw me with my friend. But I still don’t even know why he was so mad from the get go. Just so unnecessarily rude and as someone who works in food service, it literally costs nothing to be kind and to be, not only a decent employee, but a decent human being.
