A Classmate on Boba
Virginia H., M1
Boba. Or bubble tea, depending on where you're from. As the sixth USDA-approved food group, it's a non-negotiable part of the student diet. There is a relative abundance of boba places in the city, and here are a few.
Corner 17, the Loop ($) 🔥
Handmade dumplings, hand-pulled noodles swimming in soul fortifying broth, and quality boba, to boot. The perfect lunch spot to warm you up on a chilly day.
Cube Tea Studio, Olive Boulevard ($)
A tiny place right next to Olive Supermarket. It's on the pricier side, but offers cheese tea (!) in addition to the standard boba fare.
Kung Fu Tea, the Loop ($) 🔥
The only chain that has made its way to STL. Great bubbles, good tea.
St. Louis Bubble Tea, the Loop ($)
STL's first authentic boba establishment. Affordable boba and TONS of options. Also has some food if you're hungry.
