Top 15 Bubble Tea Stops in Malaysia You’ll Slurp to the Very Last Drop!
One afternoon, while waiting for my ride in downtown Kuala Lumpur, I spotted a group of students laughing and holding bubble teas in the most vibrant colours I’d ever seen. Some with cheese foam, others bursting with fruit jelly or glittering pearls.
Their excitement was contagious, and my curiosity kicked in hard. I wandered over to the nearest stall, ordered what they called the bestseller, and took one sip—and just like that, I was hooked.
That single drink led me to try the bubble tea spots across Malaysia. From trendy cafes in Penang to hidden places in Selangor, here are the top bubble tea spots in Malaysia you’ll slurp to the very last drop!
Chatto Tea & Coffee

Address: G-13, PV 128, Jalan Genting Kelang, Danau Kota, 53300 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60341419088
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 11:30 PM
Cost: $
Chatto feels like that reliable spot you end up going back to, especially if you’re into cleaner, more mellow bubble tea flavours. Their charcoal pearl oolong milk tea is the one I keep thinking about.
The blend is smooth, and the oolong hits just right without being overly sweet. If you’re a matcha fan, their matcha latte also deserves a mention for its creamy consistency and subtle bitterness.
Beyond tea, the store has a surprisingly decent lineup of food, and I wasn’t expecting much, but the sandwiches are fresh and filling. I appreciated how quiet and laid-back the space felt, making it an easy choice if you’re looking for a chill spot to work or catch up with a friend.
Pro tip: Try going during mid-afternoon on weekdays. You’ll have the place to yourself, and it’s a solid alternative to busier cafes if you need to get work done with a bubble tea in hand. |
Beigongcha

Address: Unit 4, 8, Gat Lebuh Gereja, George Town
Contact details: +601124320199
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 11 AM to 10:30 PM
Cost: $
Beigoncha is that underrated spot that quietly surprises you with how balanced and refreshing their drinks are. Their Grape Smootea is a standout—icy, naturally sweet, and served in a generous cup that feels worth every cent.
If you’re into something floral and citrusy, the perfume lemon green tea is the one to go for. The space itself leans minimal but has a chill vibe, with both indoor and outdoor seating to suit your mood.
While it’s mainly known for its tea, don’t skip the soft pandan cake if you see it on the counter!
Pro tip: If you’re sensitive to sweetness, always go for 50% or less. Some of their fruit teas tend to lean sweet, even when you ask for less sugar. |
Chagee

Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 11 PM
Cost: $$
Chagee isn’t trying to win you over with gimmicks—it wins on pure tea quality. Their white peach oolong milk tea is a bestseller, which is fruity but not artificial and comes with just the right amount of floral notes layered over smooth milk.
You’ll notice right away that this place treats its tea like something serious. From the sleek space to the calm service, it’s clear they’re not going for chaotic bubble tea hype.
Staff made it easy to find your go-to drink, whether it’s the earthy tie guan yin milk tea or a classic Ceylon black milk tea that’s brewed just right.
Pro tip: If you like stronger tea flavour, go for the da hong pao or tie guan yin with minimal sugar. It brings out the natural depth of the brew without masking it. |

Contact details: +60192331868
Operating hours:
- Monday to Friday, Sunday – 11 AM to 11 PM
- Saturday – 11 AM to 11:55 PM
Cost: $$
Ben Gong’s is one of those spots that quietly nails everything it does—from the tea itself to the vibe you get while sipping it. Their gold oolong milk tea is one of the best around if you like a richer, slightly roasted note that still works well with boba and a light cheese foam.
What makes this place even more fun is their dessert selection. If you’ve never tried kakigori (Japanese shaved ice), their mango and strawberry options are worth diving into, especially after walking around LaLaport.
And if you’re into something a little floral, the osmanthus oolong milk tea is subtle but smells incredible. The store has a relaxing interior, and the staff can help you pick a drink that suits your taste.
Pro tip: On rainy days, grab a hot milk tea with cheese foam and pair it with the chocolate kakigori. The cosy combo hits differently when it’s gloomy outside. |
HEYTEA

Address: 167, Jalan Radin Bagus, Bandar Baru Sri Petaling, 57000 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60383099683
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 11 AM to 11 PM
Cost: $$
HEYTEA brings a creative twist to your bubble tea routine without overcomplicating things. If you’re into fruity flavours, their coconut mango boom is a total crowd-pleaser—creamy, tropical, and just sweet enough to not be overwhelming.
Their strength lies in balancing tea quality with playful ingredients. You’ll find options like cheese tea, seasonal fruits, and oolong blends that taste fresh without being too sweet.
This branch is also one of the better chains if you like customising sugar and ice levels to your liking. The vibe in most HEYTEA outlets is sleek and minimalist, which makes it a chill place to catch up or just hang out with your drink.
Pro tip: Skip the straw and ask for the cheese tea lid. Sipping directly lets you enjoy both foam and tea in every mouthful, which really changes the balance of flavours. |
Love Corner

Contact details: +60164636688
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 11 AM to 12 AM
Cost: $$
Love Corner isn’t just another bubble tea spot—it’s a hybrid tea and gadget cafe with cosy vibes and personality. If you’re into roasted milk teas or matcha lattes, this place might quietly become your go-to.
Their drinks come in generous portions with thoughtful packaging, even when ordered via delivery apps. What stands out is the playful environment—think cute toys, meaningful quotes on the walls, and board games that make you want to stay longer than planned.
The service is relaxed, and the menu isn’t overstuffed with choices, which helps you focus on a few solid favourites. Prices are budget-friendly, especially given the experience you get alongside your drink.
Pro tip: If you’re sensitive about ingredients, you might want to double-check with the staff about the drink components. And if you’re visiting in person, grab a seat near the window for the best light and most relaxed corner. |

Operating hours:

Cost: $
Hercaa doesn’t follow the bubble tea crowd—they’ve carved out their own flavour lane, especially with their avocado and Belgian chocolate combos. The premium avocado kurma and dark chocolate series stand out if you’re after something creamy, rich, and not overly sweet.
The watermelon lychee drink is a solid option when you want something light and fruity, and you’ll appreciate that you can customise the sugar level for most drinks. The shop’s setup inside Village Grocer at Central I-City means it’s easy to grab a drink mid-grocery run, with decent promos popping up from time to time.
They also have some low-key great coffee and wintermelon cheese teas, and if you’re not in the mood for the boba. While prices can vary between walk-in and delivery, it’s still worth heading there if you’re nearby.
Pro tip: If you’re sensitive to sweetness or richness, go for the bursty strawberry or lemon tea. Both give a lighter finish and won’t leave you overly full. |
Booba Bubble Tea

Booba Bubble Tea at Plaza Merdeka is the kind of place you stumble into once and keep returning for. Their teaspire booba boo is a local favourite because it’s sweet, creamy, with a generous layer of brown sugar pearls that don’t taste overly chewy.
If you’re into coconut, the temptation coco latte hits that balance between rich and refreshing, and the brewsplash coco Vietnamese coffee packs a strong punch for a very affordable price.
The vibe here is super casual and the team behind the counter is friendly, no pretence, just good bubble tea. Plus, it’s right inside Plaza Merdeka, so you can sip while you shop or hang out!

Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 10 PM
Cost: $$
If you’re after Singapore’s take on bubble, LiHo TEA delivers with a twist that’s bold and refreshing. Their coconut avocado and golden avocado drinks are creamy, thick, and surprisingly light, especially if you go for 30% sugar or less ice.
It’s the perfect pick if you like your drinks a bit more filling but not overly sweet. What makes LiHO TEA unique is how flexible they are with customisation—whether you’re dairy-free, low-sugar, or just picky about texture, the staff here genuinely try to get your drink exactly how you like it.
That extra effort is what keeps regulars coming back for drinks like mango delight or the brown sugar lover fresh milk. The spot itself isn’t flashy, but there’s a quiet seating area behind the counter if you want to hang around for a bit.
Pro tip: If you’re curious about their coconut avocado, try it with white pearls for a smoother chew. It adds just enough texture without messing with the drink’s creamy balance. |

Mixue is one of those spots that always delivers when you’re after a solid milk tea fix without draining your wallet. Their supreme milk tea is creamy, well-balanced, and just sweet enough to keep things interesting—easily one of the best milk teas at that price point.
If you’re more into icy desserts, their mango sundae is a fruity bombshell that cools you down fast, especially in Malaysia’s heat. The store itself feels refreshing and clean, with decent seating and cold aircon—the right spot if you’re just looking to sit and chill with your drink.
Plus, everything is super affordable. You have to try their lemon teas and large milk teas, which make this store budget-friendly.

Luini Tea might be new in town, but it’s already creating buzz with its bold flavours and surprisingly refreshing twists. Their barley tea is very unique—chewy, lightly sweet, and just the kind of texture that keeps your drink interesting.
It’s not overloaded with sugar like others out there, which makes it great if you’re after something a bit more balanced. Located in Sunway Velocity, this spot isn’t just about good drinks; it’s also about energy.
The staff are friendly and helpful, especially when it comes to recommending their signature blends. If you happen to visit during one of their frequent promos or events, you’re in for a good deal and a lively crowd.

Contact details: +60361502635
Operating hours:

Cost: $$
Moiitea offers a different kind of bubble tea fix, one that leans into traditional Chinese herbs while still tasting refreshingly modern. The concept is pretty cool—herbal blends reimagined with familiar milk tea textures, so you’re not just sipping for taste but also for a little wellness boost.
You’ll find the cafe’s interior warm and minimal, and it’s the kind of place where you’ll feel comfortable hanging out without rushing.
Their hot and cold drinks both work well, depending on your mood, but the highlight for us was their beauty teas, which are sweet, slightly tangy, and not overly sugary like typical bubble tea options.
They often roll out promotions, which makes it easier to try a few variations without overspending.
Pro tip: Try their Sekawan Box if you’re not sure what to order. It gives you a curated combo of house specials that pair well with their herbal blends, perfect for sharing. |
