Purple Kow

My FAVE boba in the Sacramento area. I loved them when I lived in San Francisco years ago, I'm so glad they're here now! Try the chocolate pudding in your drink, we used to line up out the door in SF for it and were so sad whenever they ran out! Their drinks taste high quality and authentic. They have the BEST boba shop chicken, nice big pieces of thigh, hot and fresh, big helping, and I recommend ordering an extra sauce because that's super good too. The staff at the counter are always very nice and will bag your order with great care, and also have good recommendations. They have new/seasonal drinks all the time too, but I've found a favorite drink from the Valentine's menu this year which they thankfully still have available. I am loyal forever!! 💜

I came here with my bestie and wanted to try something new. Jordan was our “boba-rista” and walked us through the menu as well as provided samples and recommendations. I let him know I was nervous to step out my comfort zone and he stated just try it and if you don’t like it I will make you a new drink. Which he did cause my first choice was not too my liking he recommended to make me a drink that would suit my sweetness level and it was amazing !!! 20/10. Would re visit!

Wonderful boba spot! The staff is always kind and their drinks are delicious! You cannot go wrong with anything! They strive for the best quality in all their food and drinks. I love the chill & peaceful vibe in the restaurant that the owner tries to provide. AND THEY DO CATERING! My husband & I only recommend Purple Kow!

Top quality boba shops, clean and simple decor. Came here because they take Bitcoin, and can confirm in Nov 2025 that they do!

Finally, got to try this place. My kid & I visited for an afternoon snack around 4:30pm on Tuesday and ordered immediately. The cashier was patient to wait for us to choose our food. The service was quite fast as we were the only one there. - QQ Twins: the milk tea was good. The pudding was sweet and silky smooth. The grass jelly was less sweet but good compliment to the drink. I asked for 25% sugar and it was perfect for my liking. - Salt & pepper chicken nugget: the nugget pieces were big! They were still piping hot when I got them. The coating was crispy and the meat was juicy. It was well seasoned (not too salty) and delicious! - Garlic fries: the fries were also piping hot when I got it. They were super crispy and good but garlic taste was subtle.

I ordered the Purple Kow Ice Milk Drink with caramel pudding and boba (D3), and it was fantastic! I recommend 0% sugar, because it was still pretty sweet without being too overpowering. The balance was perfect. The caramel added a rich, smooth flavor, the pudding was silky, and the boba had just the right chew. Overall, it’s a super satisfying and well-rounded drink.

The boba and drinks are consistently good here, so when I'm in the area I always stop by! Their sweetness levels are adjusted well to order which is great. My favorite drinks are their black sesame ones, a flavor I don't usually find at other boba places. And! If you need a dairy free option, the staff are very helpful and accommodating to help you make substitutions for your drink, or let you know what drinks can be made dairy free. Also a nice place to hang out with free wifi, and a variety of snack options!

Would recommend. I would have to go to the bay but luckily they have one in Roseville now. Staff is great, always friendly, and their iced milk coffee is the best around. Also if your hungry grab the salt and pepper chicken w/spicy sauce.

Love this place! It's hard to find a yakult green tea and theirs is delicious. Finally tried the pho today too and it was SO yummy!

Amazing boba that’s super fresh and tasty. Great menu with tons of variety. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. The seating and dining area is clean and inviting. After trying most of the other boba places in the area, Purple Kow is our family’s hands down favorite.

I've been to many boba places and this is my favorite one by far! Whenever I am in the Roseville area, I stop here! Love their iced milk with Taro and boba! The boba is amazing and fresh tasting. You can tell they use fresh ingredients at Purple Kow :)

My kids and I have gone to this place about 3 times now and every single time have had such a great experience. The customer service is amazing 👏🏼. Ive only ever seen one person working there, and I wish I caught his name. Because he deserves to be acknowledged. He's always willing to help, greets regular customers by name, engages in conversation and is very knowledgeable about their food & drink. Highly recommend Purple Kow 💜!!

We absolutely love Purple Kow! The atmosphere and the people that work there are so incredibly sweet and down to earth. We love grabbing a drink or food from there and always value their recommendations on new menu items! Thanks for being a neighborhood staple for us, Purple Kow!

Service on a Saturday was kinda slow unfortunately. I feel bad cos there were only 2 workers and they were a bit swamped. I got the toffee black tea tea crema drink and was a bit disappointed. The cream was pretty much unsweetened whipped cream so it didn't taste like much. The tea was also just ok. Had tea flavor but not super strong. I probably would've gotten a fruit tea next time. The chicken nuggets were huge and the spicy was pretty spicy.

Welcome to Roseville!! We always have purple kow when we in the Bay Area and glad your guys open here at Roseville. Popcorn chicken was super delicious and super soft boba today, not too sure about the milk tea today, different than what I always had but will give another try. Recommend this location will come back for more chicken!

Purple know was and still our favorite place to get D3 (iykyk we old now lol) and popcorn chicken back in SF to Berkeley so surprised to find them in this region. Staff are always friendly and we still love their spicy noodles. We will now go here also after we visit family in the next holiday lol

Purple Kow has really good drinks — flavorful and refreshing. Their milk teas are definitely worth trying! The customer service is also friendly and attentive, which makes the experience enjoyable. The food (chicken nugget), however, tends to be a bit too salty for my taste, and the interior design isn’t particularly impressive — it’s simple and functional but nothing that stands out. Suggested drinks: moomoo strawberry (like Gunther freeze) and taro ice milk (real taro)

I went to Purple Kow today for the first time. I was in the area running errands and really wanted something to drink. Unfortunately, I didn't do any research before I arrived. I ordered a mango smoothie, and it arrived in a massive bowl type cup. It's not something that will fit in any car cup holder to be able to enjoy while running errands. While it does taste good, it's best to have the time to drink it in the shop as opposed to grab and go.
