I have been here many times, usually for a quick bite or when I am craving for some boba. They serve one customer at a time, since the interior is pretty compact and that way nothing gets mixed up. They offer unique boba drinks, snacks and rice bowls. Everything is made to order which is always a plus for me since I am a very patient person and I do not mind the wait. The staffs here are very welcoming, well trained and understanding where I never encountered any issues at any of my visits. I highly recommend this place to all boba enthusiasts, if you are in need of a quick bite or to anyone willing to try something new. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.

This is in the gas station itself. It's the reason I never saw it before because I don't go to that gas station. However, it's a good place. You can choose the level of sweetness which is awesome! So if you're watching your sugar intake then this is the place to go. Also, if you're lactose intolerant you don't have to worry cause it's non dairy. Pretty big sized drinks for less than $5. Good flavors to choose from.

I've ordered online quite a few times this year and the drinks are always great! I did a huge order of 15 drinks and it was ready in less than 20 minutes. Staff is super friend and helpful! I usually bring a cooler when I have a huge order and they're very willing to help place the drinks into it for me. Prices increased slightly, but their cup size is large and definitely worth the cost! Parking can be a little tricky, but there's a good amount of spots in the back.

I've gone here so many times and love it every time. I love their milk tea with boba. I was skeptical since it was located in an ARCO, but there were high reviews, so we gave it a shot. It's been one of our favorite places since. I always order their milk tea and boba and my friend always get their original lychee peachy. We are never disappointed and love the quality of our drinks. Their boba is always perfectly chewy and fresh. We've recently tried their lumpia and popcorn chicken and were impressed. The lumpia can be a bit salty, but no salt can be requested. The lumpia is never soggy and it's freshly cooked every time. The popcorn chicken is a really good portion and super tasty. I love pit stop boba shop and love going. There's a few parking spots behind the gas station. I would recommend ordering online before coming. During SIP, they only allow one person inside to order, so it can be a bit crowded outside.

Hidden gem in the gas station. I get the Vietnamese coffee drink. I think it taste pretty good, boba I got the first time wasn't good; tasted like it was under cook cause it was little tough to chew. Also tried their pop corn chicken, thought it was okay. It taste as it's missing some sort of seasoning.

A friend told me about this place and I was super confused, like, BOBA? AT A GAS STATION? This, of course, made it all the more intriguing. Not the healthiest thing to do after a doctor appointment, but hey. (1 point for unique location and thematic decor.) Surprisingly tasty house milk tea. I get mine at 25% sweet. If I wanted a simple milk tea with boba, I'd go here before Quickly, but it isn't the caliber of tea from places like Search Tea or iTea or Super Cue. BUT! It is close to my house. Note that there are about 5 spaces behind the gas station if you want to try your luck. (1 point for good tea.) Then the most interesting snacks! I tried the flaming hot chicken. Super shareable portion. I tried the cream cheese sauce but I didn't really taste it. Maybe it made the spice hurt in my mouth?? Idk. Also got the cheeseburger egg rolls because WHAT EVEN DOES THAT MEAN. That came with a sauce too but I didn't try it. Both tasty, and the egg rolls are surprisingly filling. Both definitely worth trying if you happen to be there. (1 point for creative takes on old snacks.) If I were fueling up I would want to order as soon as I get out of the car. Frying takes a while. They packed my stuff up nicely with a drink caddy and layered the food in the bag in a way that was not precarious, which I always appreciate. (1 point for good service.)
