I love bambu!! Their drinks are so delicious . If you love Taro this is the drink to get. Its one of their newest drinks. The sight of this beverage is so CUTE! Not just the color but the adorable little Taro bear made of ice cream adds just the right touch. Great for pictures and fun for kids to enjoy.

This a drink called #Che It is the Vietnamese version which is cold and sweet. My first impressions were good, I like the taste but it’s a bit too sweet for me. It has some little meaty things in it which some may think it’s gross but it was a fun experience for me. Anyway, that’s just my impression, I think it was worth the experience.

Loved the drinks, the price wasnt bad at all, and I had the sweetest cashier. The family before me was rather difficult, and she was so well composed and polite the while time. Will definitely be coming back!

Overall great service and drinks. But every time I get the cashier named, Alexia I get my order rung up wrong. In the photo below, the coconut milk tea was supposed to be large. Last time I came here my girlfriend ordered a smoothie and she did not ring it up as a smoothie.

Always a pleasure coming to this shop. My favorite is their mango smoothie. Anywhere else just doesn’t taste the same. The wait is always short and they play awesome Korean music. The staff and friendly and knowledgeable. Some macaroons are a bit and miss because the texture seems a little stale sometimes. The viet and Thai coffee is always great to drink as well, especially when the weather is scorching. I would recommend anyone to come to this little hole in the wall.

I went to this place on SATURDAY and this drink IS THE BEST (tiger sugar milk tea) I’ve always had taro milk tea but this one is so delicious! Next time I go there I will get it again! The drink is SO good! With the brown sugar they put on the bottom. And the tapioca pearls are WONDERFUL, ALSO the strawberry yogurt is the best too! Thanks Bambu Lowell you people make the best drinks! :3

The boba is quite good. But it’s upsetting when they don’t put up the drink you would always order 😐

A bit pricey but great drinks. I love the pan Dan waffle. The strawberry mochi is good. My brother always orders the vietnamese ice coffee. I switch between strawberry or orange smoothie with boboa. The thing I like is the loyalty points that give you a free larger upgrade or free mochi ice cream. I wish more places had something like that it instills customer loyalty. The people behind the counter are always friendly and polite with you. Never had a bad experience going there.

Bambu Lowell will always be my go to place for bubble tea. If you’re wanting to try something, but not sure what the Thai Tea is always delicious here and a must have! They also have Che which is really good as well. The number 6 is my personal favorite. The inside is very clean and stylish! The staff is always friendly and kind every time I go. It’s a good place to just relax and have some bubble tea alone or with your friends, would highly recommend. 😊

When coming here for the first time, I didnt know what to order. They offered a couple samples of different things which were all great making it even more difficult to choose. We have been back a couple times since and the avocado coconut smoothie is now one of my favorites aside from the cinnamon banana 😍 also their chocolate chip mochis are a little dose of heaven 😊

I used to live in a small apt above a Chinese/Vietnamese market on Stockton St. In San Francisco. I used to love all the exotic drinks and desserts they sold there. Its been 15 yrs since I lived over there and I am SO excited to find Bambu 5 min from my home! I ordered a #1 Bambu special and my daughter ordered a #11 coconut special. They are both delicious! Not too sweet. The quality of the ingredients are also awesome. Ill be eating and drinking my way through the whole menu.

Service and atmosphere were great and the food was outstanding. We started with a Beef Carpaccio appetizer followed by a Strawberry Salad and Cheese Bread. All were excellent. We both ordered Filet Mignon cooked medium rare for dinner. The steaks were perfectly prepared and the sides were excellent, as well.

Love the che and drinks here. You can customize sweetness in some drinks, but not all. Also the Pandan and Taro waffles are delicious....crisp on the outside and chewy inside!

A little Gem in the Plaza. Owners and workers are super friendly and attentive when asked questions. They serve a Vietnamese dessert called Chè. Which is something you should try out. They also have your typical bubble tea varieties. Oh almost forgot the Macaroons. Overall its a great little dessert/drink shop. Would recommend everyone to try it out and support your local shops!

These people understand and respect the art of bubble tea. The owners are great people. Flawless, delicious, and delectable every time. My go-tos include a large thai milk tea OR an avocado smoothie, both with condensed milk and boba pearls. Be warned: Very addicting. Dont tell your girlfriend about this place unless you can plan daily stops after work.

We arrived a couple minutes after they closed, and, at the locked door, one employee kindly let us in and made us some fabulous tea!! It was a little too sweet for my taste but hey, that’s boba for you :) still giving it 5 because of how gracious he was in letting us into the shop, even after closing time. Thank you!!!

My favorite is a green tea smoothie with mango bursting boba & extra matcha. Their smoothies are thick & this is currently my favorite go to dessert drink. They have tvs often playing various popular music videos & modern looking chairs that spin. The ambient sound level is reasonable & since I have autism; sounds stand out & distract me more easily. Bathrooms are down a long hallway. Its a small place, however friendly, cozy, & stylish. The quality of their smoothies is one if not best Ive ever had. Inside access to 1 poke stop. So far, they exceed my expectations. Lots of creative & unique drinks & snacks to try. Friendly staff. I hope they expand.

Very bitter and watery match bubble tea. They use crushed iced which is easily inhaled thru the straw as well.

Smashed Avocado is a must-get. This location doesnt skimp on toppings compared to the Dorchester location, but I wish they put more avocado in it.

Review №38

The environment is sheek and modern with a cozy feeling and the employees were nice, though I got my order pretty fast and all. it wasn’t what I remembered when I went there the day they opened. The Nutella macaroons were gritty and hard. The whitechochlate wasn’t even edible I literally couldn’t bite into it was like eating rubber. The Lavender macaroons were not much of a macaroon it was two layers with perfume infused cream in the middle it truly was un-appetizing. The rose lychee wasn’t very good at all I truly just won’t ever go back to Bambu due to this unpleasant experience .
