Seattle’s bubble tea scene is a vibrant one, with new shops popping up all the time. While there are many popular chains, we are picky about the unique and delicious flavors that they offer. Here are a few of our favorites:
1. Don’t Yell At Me
Don’t Yell At Me has two locations, one in Kirkland Totem Lake and one in the University District. They offer a variety of classic and creative bubble tea flavors, the milk tea is the tastiest. Their signature milk tea is a must-try, and they also have a selection of smoothies with cheese foam and bubble waffles.
📍12655 120th Ave NE Suite 190, Kirkland, WA 98034
📍4511 University way NE, Seattle, WA 98105
2. Xing Fu Tang
Xing Fu Tang is a popular Taiwanese chain that has expanded to Seattle. They have the BEST BOBA in town! The boba are cooked to perfection with a nice chewiness and infused with brown sugar flavor. The thick, chewy tapioca pearls are so addictive and go so well with either milk tea, fruit tea or smoothies!
📍1905 4th Ave, Seattle, WA 98101
3. Tea Addicts
With two locations in Seattle, Tea Addicts is a cozy shop that offers a variety of bubble tea flavors, including matcha, taro, and fruit teas. My personal favorite is the Brulee Ceylon Milk Tea which comes with a luxurious layer of Creme Brulee cream and the Rose Yakult is so refreshing! Oh, don’t forget to order the Popcorn Chicken, it is SO good!
📍1410 NE 65th St Seattle, WA 98115 (Roosevelt)
📍1527 Harvard Avenue Seattle, WA 98122 (Capitol Hill)
4. One Bite Cafe
One Bite Cafe is a Korean cafe that also offers both delicious drinks and desserts. MUST TRY: Oreo and Black Sesame Croffle, Earl Grey Cake and the the Strawberry Galaxy-Ade. I always go there for the Brown Sugar Matcha Latte with boba as I love MATCHA! They now have multiple locations in the Greater Seattle Area and the Woodinville one is our go-to.
📍14184 NE Woodinville Duvall Rd, Woodinville, WA 98072
5. Come Buy Tea
Come Buy Tea is a Taiwanese chain that is known for their freshly brewed teas in 60 seconds and hand-shaken right before they serve it to you. Our favorites are the lychee oolong tea and the signature bubble milk tea.
📍 824 E Pike St, Seattle, WA 98122
