"We had a great experience at EM Boba & Coffee! A very clean, tidy place that's not overloaded with decor. They have an easy to understand drink menu. They also have some food. Both their drink menu and lunch menu have just enough items to not be at all overwhelming which is refreshing. I am bringing a few people with me and coming back for sure!"

"I have seen their Instagram advertising that they were open and followed them to try it out. We finally got the chance to do so and we went to grab some refreshing drinks. They had samples of their black sesame rice Krispy treat and it was really good, not too sweet and very nostalgic of a classic childhood treat. We just had a meal next door so we didn't need a snack so we'll order that next time. My boyfriend got the ube coffee while I got a summer special drink (can't remember which one) and it was what we were looking for: refreshing and not too sweet. Now the biggest issue that I came across is when I asked for no ice in my drink, the employee gave me an apologetic smile and said she would try her best. As you see in the picture, it isn't completely full. Now I saw a review that complained about a similar issue and the business owner said that you can just let staff know that you want the cup to be filled and they would do their best to accommodate. Not sure if that is just miscommunication or just something the owner said to seem like they are solving the issue but it seems really unprofessional. I understand that it can alter the drink's intended flavor but I ask for no ice all the time and am always happy with how it turns out. You check my photos of drinks from other places and I always ask for no ice as I have sensitive teeth and I don't like the condensation it causes. Other than that issue, it's good to see Lakewood have a nice boba and coffee spot. Additionally, they have two crane machines and board games to enjoy too. They are also dog friendly as long as they are well-behaved and don't cause any messes."

"Fantastic!!! Was recommended by co workers and they definitely didnt disappoint. I love the way they make their Thai Tea (red) its absolutely yummy. Not made like other places. Samantha was the girl working when I ordered and she was super friendly and kind. Definitely coming back! I already came back after work too! Cups are reusable too!"

"Came in for the Velvet Taro but they were out! Nooooo! Taro has gotten popular these days...and rightfully so! The friendly lady behind the counter recommended the Matcha Brulee Slushie. And it didn't disappoint! Creamy and smooth, a lovely way to finish off a Monday afternoon while waiting on your dog to finish his groom. The place is super clean including their bathroom and the atmosphere was quite nice as I was the only one in there. Nice addition to the plaza! IBB."

"I work in the same shopping center and I go in pretty often for my lunch breaks or for an after work pick me up. No matter how busy they are, even if they are running around, they are always extremely sweet and kind. The drinks are always absolutely delicious. Highly reccomend the Mango Dragon with Strawberry Jelly!"
