8 Degrees Cafe Boba - Des Moines

Without doubt this place is my absolute favorite Boba place. I don't know why, but 8 degrees is just elite when it comes to their boba quality. I usually get the signature milk tea with 50% sweet and black pearls and it always manages to make my day better. the opposite is perhaps not the best, but 8 degrees is an absolute gem! the inner and inside is clean and well maintained and it has a great atmosphere. they have self-service kiosks with a large selection and pictures of all drinks, so they don't have to talk to a server unless they want what is a plus. overall, about the many paints I've never been here in quality, and they stay my favorite Boba joint all the time.

It has a neat atmosphere. My first time eating matcha ice cream and red beans. It was interesting but realized it's not my cup of tea. That's just me. But they have different varieties of Boba teas and other caffeinated drinks. We sat out on the patio in the front. All in all a good experience.

It was pretty fake/chemically/plasticky-smelling. And you had to order on a machine so you couldn't ask specific questions. And it was $6.41!!! And the boba was a weird texture, like, it just fell apart in your mouth. I liked the thriving mint plants and bench outside though. And the guy handing out drinks was nice.

Ive had my eye on this place for awhile since its a few blocks from my place. I finally got the chance to try it Saturday, and I absolutely loved it! I got a strawberry smoothie with strawberry jellies and strawberry poppings, it was so good! Cant wait to try something new next time!

Friendly staff and delicious drinks!Love the new checkout option to place your own drink!i recommend the Thai milk tea with strawberry jellyand Taro Milk Tea with coffee pearls.
