At 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 21, Magic Cup was nearly empty and had only two employees working behind the counter. The shop itself was very inviting. There was a clean seating area that consisted of tables with regular chairs, cushioned chairs and a booth, as well as a small outdoor seating area. The interior was comfortably lit by both overhead lighting fixtures and large glass windows that let in lots of natural light. Inside, plants were placed throughout the shop, adding a little extra flair to the decorations. Overall, it had a very calm atmosphere, and if not for the loud noise of the blenders while the drinks are being made, Magic Cup could be a good study spot.

Unlike many other boba shops, Magic Cup has a drive thru. Furthermore, they offer online ordering and Uber delivery services. These services may make Magic Cup a great option for anyone in a rush wanting to make a quick stop.

I ordered a pineapple strawberry green tea with mango jelly for a cost of $6.45. It took a few minutes to get my drink, but the wait wasn’t too long and the staff was very friendly. My drink was smooth and delicious. Most importantly, it had a good balance between the fruit flavors and the flavor of the green tea. The mango jelly topping also provided a nice touch to the drink as it was chewy and mixed well with the pineapple and strawberry flavors. Magic Cup offers different levels of sweetness to their drinks such as regular, reduced and no sugar. While I ordered mine regular, I thought that it was very helpful to provide customers with the option of picking the sweetness of their drink.

Overall, I was impressed by Magic Cup. Their menu is very diverse, so it has something for everyone. The interior was nicely decorated, had a pleasant atmosphere and I really enjoyed the drink that I ordered. For anyone in need of a quick boba stop and a relaxing atmosphere, Magic Cup is the place to go!
