Dragonfly Tea Bar

NOT CLOSED! Have always had great service here and they have expanded their menu to include more food!

I love this place… I am just sad that I didn’t here about this place until I was getting read to move away. I have tried quite a few of their milk teas, teas and the slush made with almond/​strawberry. If I come back to visit I will be sure to have a drink or too.
They also have a deal where you can but a gallon of their deliciousness. The place is really cute. I have also really enjoyed their chicken curry, zucchini, and fried tofu. However, be warned their spicy packs a punch.
I only downgraded them one star since the name still says lollicup… this place is definitely not like the forrmer chain. It now is very charming.

Another go-​to boba place for me. Drinks are just average, but the best thing about this place is they have really late hours. They close at 1 on weekdays and 2 on weekends.
Interior is kinda worn down and doesn’t give off a clean vibe, but to be perfectly fair, almost none of the boba places these days do. It’s nothing too bad, but I wouldn’t want to hang out here for extended periods of time (studying for example).
The hours alone is what gives them their 4^th star. It’s pretty freaking fantastic imo.

Now that this isn’t a Lollicup anymore (Dragonfly Tea Bar), it’s not quite the same. It still looks about the same inside save for some added decorations and even the menu appears to be the same. I love that they’re open until 2am too. Disclaimer though: that close time attracts a lot of local high schoolers and Chapman students. Had to knock off a star though because my friend got pretty size-​able pieces of red plastic in her Chocolate Smoothie. Turns out they were from the spoons the baristas use that had gotten chopped up in the blender. Mistakes like this are bound to happen but it’s still a little disconcerting since she could have choked. My Strawberry Slush with Boba was the same though and had the same Lollicup quality.

I always get the Almond Milk Tea. Good place to study.

I love this place. Granted I get the same thing every time I visit (Thai tea w/​o boba). It’s a great place that has a cozy feel to it. Great place for a conservation or to study. I come here after the gym (which is right next door) a lot. It’s very relaxing, and the late hours are awesome for night owls like myself.
Highly recommend!

This place is great if you’re in the mood for a smoothie or a milk tea. I love the fact that they have stamp cards and that the place is «study friendly».
Their drinks aren’t the best quality, but it’s tolerable. I would suggest ordering the milk tea because I feel like it’s one of their best drinks. I haven’t tried any of their smoothies because they’re a bit on the pricier side. You should have no trouble finding seating since the place isn’t usually jammed pack like starbucks.
Anyways, it’s a nice place overall.

LOve me some red bean smoothie with extra red bean chunks on the bottom instead of boba.
Gotta get my fiber! LOL

Average Lollicup.
Note: There’s a big stuffed bear u can take pictures of/​with :3

I love boba! This place has a nice menu selection and a bunch of specials. They’re also open until 1am daily for those of you who need that late night/​early morning boba fix. Get 10% off your order if you call it in. The inside is a decent size and was nice and clean during my visit. Remember your punch card so you can get your 11^th boba free. I ordered a large milk ice tea w/​boba. The drink was nicely sweetened and the tapioca balls were decent.

They have been updating the look of this place for awhile, which has improved. Nonetheless, it is their delightful drinks that keep me coming back for more!

The interior is much, much, better than the last time I visited this place. Before it was dungeon-​y and dank feeling. Now this is definitely no Riverside Lollicup (a very modern, chic, hip, bright Lollicup establishment), but it’s much better than what it was.
They had a two for one special (heads up they do have specials from time to time) and so I got two regular milk teas — one with boba and one with pudding.
Now their pudding seemed very «chunky» and I don’t know if it had anything to do with me putting my tea in the fridge. I think I may try the pudding again but if it turns out to be «chunky» then I’m not going to get it again.
The boba was ok, but it did seem a little on the hard side. Now the milk tea was on the sweeter side — almost too sweet. Usually I get my milk teas with less ice but I’m glad I forgot to tell the server to do that or otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to drink it (yes, it was really that sweet).
On the plus side this place does have its own signature drinks. So if you’re adventuresome and like to try new concoctions then this is definitely the place to go.

They have fried tofu!!! I can’t seem to find any tea shop that offers fried tofu as a snack because most of those shops are in the SGV area. Felt like a jackpot when I discovered it here! I love their tofu! Just wish the portion was a tiny bit bigger then that’d be awesomeeee! They also have combo meals too! They open late and their kitchen stays open late too so you can study all day and eat all your meals without leaving the place! Drinks are ok here. Kind of pricey. I come here for the tofu, popcorn chicken, and combo meals.

I first came here with some friends who were craving boba tea one night. They’ve changed the layout of the store 3 – 4 times but this time, it looks nice.
Their milk tea has fluctuated from being too sweet to perfect for me and I prefer it over Tastea. The boba beads are easier to chew and swallow compared to the Tastea ones which are bitter and difficult to chew once they touch ice.
I don’t come here often since the tea is probably not the healthiest beverage to consume on a daily basis but its an indulgence that I do from time to time.

Thought i’d edit this since the remodel is over and their back in business.
I love this place better than any of the other spots I’ve found. Almond yogurt slush, honeydew and coconut milk tea, are probably my favorites.
Try the egg pudding add-​on when you get tired of the boba. I think I like it better.
The food is really good too. The teryaki chicken, fried rice, and house beef are great.

I have been coming here quite often because I live so close to it. FIrst of all, this place doesn’t make very good drinks or boba, but it gets the job done. There are really no other decent boba places in orange, so i understand why it’s popular.
It is crowd and there are always people in and out. They have done a few renovation, but it still doesn’t make the place anymore inviting especially because the staffs here are really inefficient. I probably have gotten a wrong drink 30% of the time here. Mostly, from the same guy who is always there.
The place is quite loud, and sometimes, the music is really overwhelming. This is definitely a place that you come, get your drink, and leave. It isn’t a good place to sit and hangout and it is obvious that no one really sit around unless if they come in a huge group of 10 people and completely take over the entire place.
The drinks are anything special. I recommend a few slushes like mango and lychee. The other typical drinks like almond milk or taro are not very good, and you can definitely get better ones at other places.
Consider driving further to satisfy yourself.

I usually stop by here everytime I come into town to visit my mom and aunt. They literally live around the corner from here (super convenient). Try to go on a Saturday because it’s buy 2 get 1 free. If you call your order in, you can save 10%. I say call from outside the place and then come in. They also have a bunch of other deals that I can’t remember. Plus, there’s free wifi, tables, and loyalty card.
It really depends on who is behind the counter making your drinks. I had one terrible experience where they made my almond milk tea SUPER sweet. I had to take it home and water it down before I could drink it. My last experience was awesome. I forgot to catch her name, but she made my drink perfect — not too sweet. She also made the fried zucchini extra crispy and spicy! Yum!

Came here because I got a coupon for buy a popcorn chicken get one free so why not. Since we were there we also used the buy one mocha blast get another one free. Walking in there was only 2 other people there, but that is fine with me. That just means I don’t have to wait so long for my food.
What we got:
Popcorn chicken: it came in a cute little boat! I like how they give you the sauce for free unlike some other places where they make you pay like 50 cents for it. The sauce was too watery compared to other places though and it wouldn’t stick onto the chicken as much. They also have more condiments that they leave on the table for you if you want anything else. The chicken, to me, I thought it was okay. It wasn’t as crunchy as I would have wanted it to be though. My bf said it was just okay because of how much breading was on it.
Caramel mocha blast: I’m not a mocha person at all, but this actually tasted pretty good. It was super sweet which I like. You could taste the caramel too so yay!
Service:
The lady behind the counter was nice. She kept saying sure to everything we said! That made me smile =]. The wait wasn’t long like the other boba places I go too even if I was the only one in there.

Lollicup? More like LolliCRAP.
They have good deals on milk tea on Mondays ($ 1.50) and happy hour later at night, but that doesn’t make it okay for them to skimp on ice or burn their lollichicken! TSK, TSK. I used to love this place when they first opened up. Now their milk teas are powdery and their chicken burnt.
There’s a girl that works there named Nancy and she’s really nice. If you decide to go to Lollicup, just hope that she’s the one to take your order and make your drinks, because the Mexican guy there SUCKS. You can hardly understand him and he comes off as unfriendly and lacking in customer service skills.
But alas… I still find myself coming here every now and then when I’m craving a jasmine milk tea or lychee green tea since this is the only other boba place in Orange. Mehhh…

The first time I had Lollicup was for a fundraiser at my school. It was pretty decent so I decided to go in and try the «real» thing since the fundraiser boba was slightly watered down because the ice had melted. There is one in the in-​n-​out/​24 hour/​Gspoon complex on Chapman. I always thought it was CRUEL really how they put all these YUMMMY food places near 24-​hour fitness, bitches!!! The boba place itself is really small, therefore, i wouldn’t recommend coming with a big group if you plan on hanging out.
Similar to Tastea, Lollicup has those generic «syrup» tasting flavors. Their milk tea with boba isn’t too bad. I also tried the milk tea with lychee pieces which was pretty good as well. The one plus about this boba place is that they are relatively cheap (around 2.50/drink). This definitely beats the Cha for Tea prices. But I guess you pay for what you get.
Overall, I come here when I have boba cravings. Nothing really special.
