Customer Reviews

A refreshing twist at Teamo! My go-to place for Boba tea. I absolutely love the Strawberry Dalgona Coffee with Matcha at Teamo?it?s truly delightful! The blend of sweet strawberry, creamy whipped coffee, and earthy matcha creates a unique and refreshing flavor that?s both indulgent and perfectly balanced. It?s not your typical coffee drink, and that?s exactly what makes it stand out. The ambiance at Teamo is always cozy and inviting, and the staff members are friendly, attentive, and consistently enhance

The atmosphere is warm, open and inviting. Unfortunately the bartender didn't get the espresso drink that I ordered so I complained quietly to him and let him know that I would not tip him and why. He tried to offer me a drink at another time. But that won't work ?? And it's ok The dessert was absolutely the best I have ever had. So grateful I popped in.

TRY THE MOCHI DONUTS! Airy with a soft texture and just the right amount of sweetness from the glaze - Strawberry and Mango were my favs! If you're looking for a more unique flavor, the Matcha was just right with no bitterness. You order at the kiosk and it's prepared quickly by the staff. The seating area is a bit small, but it would be nice to enjoy them across the street at the park on a clear day!

Perfect location near the bean and ice skating in winter, the staff person Craig is nice, The seats are comfortable and cushy, And there's super easy public transportation here. The tease tasted good and I like the container and logo. The inside is decorated nicely and simply. And they have fun desserts. They have special flavors for the seasons plus organic milk along with soy coconut milk for some drinks. Plus they have gadget charging stations and paper boba straws along w plastic thin straws. Lastly you

i had a really strawberry milk drink here! in a cute fake can too... I dont know if it makes it better actually. but they made it really tasty! they also have a couple of seats inside to relax in

Accidentally stumbled across this place, and I'm so glad that I did! The inside of the store is small, but they do have a few tables to sit at, and it's aesthetically pleasing to look at. The drinks that my friend and I ordered were made quickly, and both tasted great. They had a lot of flavors you don't see often at other boba shops. I liked the cans that they used, too. Eliminated the use of a straw, and was easier to walk around with. When I'm back in Chicago, I'll definitely stop here again!

Place will be so good for those who want to experience the real boba?.feel? My fav boba place?

It was a nice clean place. Thai tea in the seasonal tree container was tasty and cute. The staff were in skates getting everyone's orders fulfilled. I'm very appreciative of their hard work.

This place is really cute in a great location. The bubble tea that we got tasted really good and their Boba was on point.

Ordered the dalgona strawberry matcha with tapioca and it was delicious! The strawberry was nice and tart which counteracted the sweet dalgona. The boba was also cooked perfectly and had a very chewy texture. The matcha itself isn?t too strong though which is a bit disappointing. My boyfriend ordered the mango sparkling lemonade, and would have preferred a stronger mango flavor as well. That being said, the drinks came out quickly and are very pretty. I would return to try out other flavors.

It is beautiful in there! It?s very small but there are places to sit and wait with outlets for charging if needed. You ordered from the tablets and one was down when I was there so there was a longer wait than normal. Order comes out in about 10-15 minutes from ordering. I got strawberry milk tea with cr?me br?l?e cheese foam and it was DELICIOUS! But nothing could beat the Ube cheesecake bao!!! So warm, soft, and fluffy! The filling wasn?t too sweet and velvety smooth. Would totally recommend

Really enjoyed the boba from this place. Tasted really good and sweet. I ordered online and it was ready for pickup by the time I got there.

Picked these up frozen a few months ago and finally made them. Fifteen minutes in the steamer and they were good to eat. The everything bagel bao was soft and fluffy, but was skimping on the filling. It was hard to tell the flavor with the ratio and I sprinkled on some extra everything but the bagel seasoning on to help it out. The ube one was unreal. Same exterior bao, but there was so much filling that it was oozing out. Not the strongest ube flavor which is fine with me. The cheesecake filling was pretty

Super cute boba shop with snacks and raffle for prizes! We got a mango pomelo sago panna cotta and it was so good!

We got the 6 piece donut and ube dalgona coffee and they were delicious! Ube is my favorite. Interior is super cute as well. Will come again :)

Drinks are solid and workers are nice, but the service is unbelievably slow. They just really need more help with a larger staff or need additional training, because they never meet the time estimate of their orders. The containers are also annoying to open / drink out of; an attempt to be cute at the expense of practicality.

Absolutely loved this place. So nice had to stop twice on our trip to Chicago. I loved the cute clear cans they serve their drinks in and the cutesy environment. When I come back to the city again I?ll definitely be making my first stop back here. Their Thai milk tea is amazing !

We stumbled upon Te ?Amo at Water Tower while looking for another spot and decided to give it a try. They offer a range of hot and cold beverages, as well as desserts, though we?ve only tried their drinks so far. We stopped by this location while walking to The Bean. My husband is a big fan of their hot Strawberry Dalgona coffee?he?s ordered it both times we've visited. I?ve had the cold Ube Dalgona and the pumpkin spice Dalgona, both of which were absolutely delicious. This place has quickly become our f

I?ve enjoyed this bubble tea however when I went to get my drinks (I waited 20 minutes for) the guy with brunette hair ripped it out of my hand and told me didn?t like where I was standing and then proceeded to yell at me in front of all the customers. I?m not sure if he stressed or what but that was uncalled for. Very rude and uncomfortable.

The service was amazing! I got the rose jasmine green tea with mango jelly. The rose flavor wasn?t my favorite, but I also have never had it before so that one is on me! I?ll come back and try their brown sugar next. Best boba I?ve had in Chicago so far!

Was an ok spot. Only reason I went was for the mochinuts but they were not good to me...ways too spongey. I had ones from a shop in Lincoln Park and LA that were way better. I think their version is more mochi [rice] less doughnut [wheat] where I prefer more wheat to rice ratio. Also it was way too high priced, $4 nearly $5 for one. The aesthetic is nice though, very girly. The have teas and boba as well.

Randomly found this place while walking in the city and its amazing! Love the vibe and everything looked so pretty! We tried the Tiramisu Basque Chees and it was delicious! Highly recomend??

Looks good! Hope teamo can have more sugar-free drinks

Stopped by on our visit to Chicago and it was AMAZING. Some of the best boba I?ve had by far.

Super cute boba shop! The desserts look very good but I was too full to try any! The Thai milk was good but I wish it was a little sweeter! Wish I would have gotten the brown sugar boba!

A trendy, instagrammable shop across the street from Millennium Park. They serve their bubble milk tea within these "cans" that require one to pop open the lid like it's soda. One of the gimmicks is that everyone has a chance of winning a free prize written on the lid of the can. I found their drinks to not have the strongest tea flavor and watered down with milk. I also found the taste of their pearls to be on the harder side and not as chewy.

The aesthetic is really nice. Also I enjoyed the strawberry lemonade drink! It's a good place to go with friends!

My favorite boba in all of Chicago! They also sell mochi donuts, cakes, and tea. We also bought a mystery toy box and got a cute keychain. If you?re in the loop and craving boba, this is the place to be!

This place is super cute! Everything is pink and aesthetic. You order on the kiosk and they make your drink super quickly! There?s also a surprise under ur cup lip where you can win another drink. I got the strawberry milk with coconut milk and it was very yummy.

It is a great boba tea bar near the Bean. This bar also had some lively desserts and donuts. The slush and milk tea tasted great with decent sweetness. They were doing a few discounts with toys (key chains) and free donuts.

Their brown sugar milk tea was a bit too sweet but it was tasty and their bobas were fresh. Wish they had sweetness level options for milk tea. Their original lemonade drink was really good. Overall I would recommend this place!

For starters, the shop is just the cutest! Pink is my favorite color so I was instantly drew in! The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The mochi doughnut is the highlight though! I loved it. I will be back soon ??

Te?amo is a cute little boba shop across from Millennium Park, very Grammable. I ordered a Ube Dalgona Matcha with boba and crystal boba?the price is on the high side at $8.77 but it was good. The staff were cheerful and nice and great about answering our questions about the menu. Recommend!

sweet, delicious and refreshing! love te amo at millennium park.

This place was very cute! We came to millennium park and it was so hot that we were in desperate need of a refreshing drink! I had the strawberry lemonade and it hit the spot! Definitely recommend if you are in the area and they also give you really cute prizes with your drink!!

First time here and I love it! Great staff and super cute store !

Sometimes I just want some boba without needing to go to Chicago's Chinatown ?? I first discovered te'amo when I was living in streeterville . Literally was CRAVING boba and so home sick. It was maybe 2 years after I moved to chicago. Then I found them on Google maps and it was walking distance omg ?? Now tea'mo has 4 locations downtown for bubble tea in Chicago : Millennium Park, Water Tower Place, Navy Pier, & Northbridge Mall Crazy right?! What I usually get: ??Volcano - comes with Thai tea, Oreo, cr

Really cute and affordable for the loop, and the boba was delicious!

I love this spot! It's my go-to for bubble tea in the loop. The staff is friendly and the tea is awesome! The coupons under the lid are a clever idea. Highly recommend trying the cheese foam.

While the drink was decent, the wait time was absolutely ridiculous. I?m not sure if they?re just severely understaffed or poorly managed, but waiting 40 minutes for one drink was crazy. The shop itself was a mess with an overflowing trash can and cups/spills on the floor everywhere. The online ordering system clearly has issues since multiple in person orders were prepared before an online order was, despite being ordered at least 20 mins in advance. This place has so much potential, but please learn to be

Everything was good the drinks tasted very good and refreshing. We got the Teamo O2 and the strawberry dalgona matcha. They were very good and I recommend them. Also Jenny was in the front helping us out and she was very kind and helpful

Amazing Boba! Do keep in mind that to open the canister tops you put your thumb on it and pull it BACK. I made the mistake of opening one like a pop can... ?? Good regardless though!

This was a nice spot to rest and drink a matcha latte. They don?t overstuff the glass with ice like some other places. You place your order at the kiosk and the servers get the drinks ready pretty quickly. I also like the unique cans they come in.

Cute place. Mia is so sweet and helpful gave me different options to try. Aesthetically pleasing. Would come again. The dalgona coffee and blue berry mochi donut 10/10.

I had dalgona coffee without boba and with %75 sugar, it was really nice. I would like to drink there again. I also had a chance to taste original lemonate and brown sugar milk tea. Original lemonate was good but brown sugar milk tea was too sweet for me. They gave the drinks with cute can containers.

We ordered a classic green tea with bubble and a delgona matcha with bubble. The service was very good and the people who made our bubble tea were very friendly. The green tea was very refreshing, and the delgona matcha was very rich and thick, it was a little bit too sweet but overall very nice drink. There are some seating areas but it?s not a big place. I?d recommend coming here for good bubble tea.

Flavorful and boba is cooked perfectly each time, their quality is consistent and worth the treat! Volcano thai tea is my personal favorite, but the brulee drinks might be a close second! Love that their containers are spillproof too, since I usually get a drink to go for friends or family.

M?a was very nice and sweet. There was this girl who has walked up to the kiosk and it looked like she had ordered but nothing went through. Mia made sure to walk over and check with her just in case it was a system error. The girl hadn?t ordered as she was still deciding, but it was nice to see that Mia cared.

Very cute decor! The drinks were tasty. I got the pumpkin spice dalgona matcha with boba. A bit pricy. The boba was a little hard.

cute place, very easy to access the menu, nicely decorated, music in the back fit the theme, service was amazing.

Very cute bubble tea location! Love their drinks and service is amazing. Would def recommend. The prettiest drinks too

Nice place to stop by on a hot day for a cold drink! Good photo ops

I had the strawberry cheesecake & sunrise smoothie and both were delicious. The staff was super friendly as well and I won a free Boba keychain it is so cute!!

This is suchhh a cute place! the packaging is so aesthetic and they have really cute raffle prizes that you can win if you like trinkets and blind boxes!! I really recommend coming here if you?re into cute items like that ????

I really enjoyed coming here! It wasn?t very busy on a Friday afternoon. There?s plenty of seating, and it?s a great location (next to the bean). I got a milk tea: a good drink for the winter weather.

Literally the best ube/boba drink I've ever had! I was a little iffy on the coffee one but sooooo glad I choose it!

Super tasty and great cute spot for bubble tea downtown. The atmosphere is so cute and I love getting the strawberry dalgona matcha.

Te?amo Bubble Tea ? Great Spot for Boba! Te?amo is a cozy and stylish place with a great selection of bubble tea. Their matcha latte with tapioca is smooth and well-balanced, and the mango bubble tea is super refreshing.

We got the dalgona coffee! It?s actually pretty good! They also have mochinuts ???? The store is cozy and there are seating area and tables. Used to go to their spot in suburb Chicago, but first time stepping in a dt store!

So Delicious cheesecake !

This place is adorable, friendly staff and just a wholesome warm atmosphere!! 100/10 I recommend the Dalgona coffee and matcha ??

The mango milk tea was good until unfortunately my daughter almost swallowed a staple. Not sure if the staple was already in the cup before the drink was poured or what but this is extremely dangerous! I?m grateful that she noticed it in her mouth and took it out before it was too late. First time trying this location after visiting the art institute. I?ve tried calling to let the owners know but no response.

Even tho he was by himself he did a great job with keeping up and being such a great kind person even tho it does get stressful ?? keep it up

Awesome Dalgona Matcha! Nice portion. Service was great too!

Cashiers were super nice! I got the drink at 0% sweetness and it was perfect!

The drink cups are so cute!!! Especially the tree - also the baos are very shiny. The aesthetic is also really cute - love pink. Wish the drinks came in more accessible containers.

Ordered the Mango Pomelo Sago and a Rose Green Tea. Super cute inside and drinks taste good!

Brown sugar milk tea is good. Got the 2 pc bao - ube and pizza. Love it. Ube was not too sweet

I loved the service and the place is very clean and cute!! The lemonade and mochi donut were very good as well.

We went during the opening of the new ship and we got free mochi doughnuts and squish toys. The boba teas were decent

I love coming to Te? Amo. The atmosphere is always pleasant and the staff are kind. The food and drinks are delicious. I especially love to add the strawberry jelly to my drink.

Got the strawberry lemonade, the strawberry part is tasty and the lemonade is electric ?? Aesthetic pleasing, pink everywhere ??

I like the drinks here. The drink is made quite quickly. The atmosphere is not noisy

A very lovely place with beautiful and delicious food and drinks :)

I loved the crepes dessert! So different and exquisite! I want to try all the flavors now! I will be back definitely!

yummy, boba was fresh, staff were nice, clean place although it?s small there?s still space to sit, a little pricey but that?s to be expected given that they don?t use regular cups :)?? had the strawberry lemonade and strawberry matcha latte !

Amazing boba tea, cute place , a must visit

Very fine bubble tea, not too sweet, bubbles are nice. As well, matcha cake was done really good.

The store and serving style is very cute, staff were very friendly and efficient. I tried the classic Boba milk tea, which tasted good but very sweet. Boba itself was very sweetened, with almost no tea flavor at all in between milk and cream. The drink is served cold but without ice, probably ordering through machine limited editable options. Desserts looked so edible! Will try-?em next time :D

Drink came out really fast and the place was really cute!
