What Diners Are Saying
Diners loved
This is my favorite local spot for bubble tea.
I've had the boba tea here many times. Very delicious, fabulous. Coconut and almond milk are an alternative options here.
Surprisingly hot & crispy popcorn chicken (with a togarashi sprinkle).
Ordered a taro milk tea with boba and jelly, mango green tea with boba and jelly, and veggie gyozas. Superb.
Some noted
Overpriced in my opinion and they say close at 8:30 but they were closed by 8:15 when I arrived... Was unfortunate..
Pearls are decent and teas are good, food is not that good..
I got the strawberry milk tea and it tasted like watered down strawberry cough medicine.

My siblings and I have been going here for years, it’s always been such a great spot for both boba and the chill vibes, it’s only gotten even better with the little figurine machines now! I love this place!

“Stopped by here because my friends had Boba so I had to get some too.”
Stopped by here because my friends had Boba so I had to get some too! They have a good menu and it’s all customizable, the mango with popping mango was tasty and creamy! They have gatcha machines there with so many cute little figurines. They have some small plates too!

Delicious ice cream flavors, presented well and with awesome toppings. The rolling process was fun to watch for kids. Set up is fun. The store has boba and food options as well.

“The cafe is cute and clean.”
The cafe is cute and clean. The rolled ice cream came with cookies and marshmallow, worth trying. Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken is good too.

“Ten Cafe is located off of Western Avenue and Roscoe (Roscoe Village) in the strip plaza; watch out...”
Ten Cafe is located off of Western Avenue and Roscoe (Roscoe Village) in the strip plaza; watch out for google maps giving iffy directions to this destination. Ten Cafe is super cute and aesthetically put together with their friendly staff who know their stuff. Customers that I experienced in my short visit are a mixed bag, however; laid back and casual but there were also some suburban Karen vibes present but that’s neither here nor there. 🫠 Our order for a party of three consisted of seaweed salad, Taiwanese popcorn chicken, chocolate rolled ice cream with boba topping and two types of boba; taro milk cloud w coconut milk and passion fruit popping boba and Brown Sugar Boba Tea with Tapioca boba. I would love to see a kids menu option here (it would help immensely by helping to avoid decision fatigue ) as well as caffeine free boba drink options for those who don’t love tea but enjoy boba.

“This place is so cute and yummy.”
This place is so cute and yummy! We got the Tao milk cloud, the pot stickers, and grape oolong tea with lychee popping boba. The inside is really clean and vibey. The music was kinda bumpin, but not overwhelmingly loud. There’s a self serve robot thing you can order on or go to the counter. Definitely will be back!

“Can't say much for the atmosphere since I ordered for delivery.”
Can't say much for the atmosphere since I ordered for delivery. The thai milk tea is good, not the best I've had but not the worst either. The dumplings tho were very good, I don't like mines crispy so the fact that they were more like steamed ones was good for me. I ordered the shake shake fries and the fries them selves are good. They traveled a long way to get to me and were still great when they arrived.
