I had really high hopes for this place. I actually did my research beforehand and saw several Instagram reels, which made me really excited to try it. I even told my mom about it, and she drove all the way from Aurora to come check it out with me because we both love tea, unique drinks, and fun food experiences. Unfortunately, the experience fell pretty flat—mostly because of the service. One of the employees (a white guy with mid-length light-colored hair) gave off very off-putting vibes. He was condescending, inserted himself into a conversation I was having with my mom, and overall made the interaction feel uncomfortable and rude. It was honestly awkward enough that I wouldn’t return because of it. The female working with him (darker hair) however, was very kind. As for the drink itself, it was just okay. There wasn’t much of a distinct flavor, and it wasn’t very sweet. I’ve had similar drinks before where you can really taste the ube, taro root, and sweetness, but this one felt bland and fell flat. Not necessarily because of the ingredients, but I truly feel that it wasn’t made properly. We were both so thrown off by the Vibe that we decided we weren’t even going to eat there and went to pho real Littleton instead. I really wish this had been a better experience, especially since we were genuinely excited to try it. I also feel bad for the owner because they clearly work hard, and it’s unfortunate when an interaction like this overshadows the effort that goes into running a small business. If you compare the six popular tease photo to my photo, you can see a huge difference with the amount of obey and tarot that is put. It’s almost like I was just drinking plain milk with Boba.

Excellent service when they got a huge rush of customers all at once! The boba itself was a pretty good standard and the space is nice, bright, and clean. It’s nice that they have Vietnamese food options as well. Would come back when in the area.
