Our Story

Born on Woodward, Crafted with Purpose

Boba Bar didn't start in a boardroom. It started with a question: why can't Detroit have a boba spot that actually cares about the details?

We source our tea leaves from single-estate gardens, cook our pearls in small batches throughout the day, and treat every cup like it's for someone you love. That's not marketing — that's just how we roll.

Located right on Woodward Avenue, we're proud to be part of Detroit's ever-evolving food scene. Whether you're a boba veteran or this is your first time pulling a straw through a cloud of tapioca, there's a seat for you here.

The Topping Bar

Every drink is a canvas. Pick your base, choose your texture, and make it unmistakably yours.

Classic Tapioca Pearls

Chewy, black, and cooked fresh every few hours. The original.

Pop Boba

Bursting fruit spheres in mango, strawberry, and yuzu. A flavor pop in every bite.

Coconut Jelly

Silky, subtly sweet, and impossibly smooth. Made from real coconut milk.

Taro Balls

Purple, starchy, and delightfully chewy. A natural sweetness that pairs with everything.

Cheese Foam

Salty-sweet cloud of cultured cream cheese foam. The luxurious finish.

Aloe Vera Cubes

Crunchy, refreshing, and lightly sweet. A hydrating twist on the classic.

Brown Sugar Drizzle

Caramelized sugar swirled into the glass for those signature tiger stripes.

Red Bean Paste

Sweet, earthy azuki beans slow-cooked until silky. A comfort topping.

Open Seven Days

We're here whenever the craving hits — from morning tea to late-night sips.

Right on Woodward

Easy to find, easy to park, right in the heart of Detroit's main corridor.

Quality Guaranteed

Every ingredient selected with care. If it's not our standard, it's not your drink.

Takeout & Catering

Grab a cup on the go or let us bring the boba to your next event.
