The worst place ever. I've only been here twice and both times the food was disgusting. I've never had they're wings but when I asked the waiter what's popular he said mango chicken... So that's what I got. Straight up microwave food flavour. My friend from Vancouver also did not like the place and we did not even finish our meals or bubble teas because it was just bad.
I'm assuming most people... more

My husband, family members, friends and relatives have gone twice to Bubblemania now. If you have a large group, you should try to book a reservation or you may not get a table since its often quite busy here. We love the assorted wings available and I love the bubble teas that are on the menu. My favorite is mango with passionfruit and of course - I have to have those little bubbles full of... more

Amazing place to grab a bubble tea. Mango avacado with pearls is a must try. Customer service is always top notch. Highly recommended!!!

Love this place! Have been going for bubble tea and wings at Bubblemania since they were a hole-in-the-wall around the early-mid 2000s (when they had black leather couches, playing cards and display of magazines!). I've seen them renovate 2 or 3 times now and seen their business grow! Can't go anywhere else! Their wings actually have juicy meat on them, and they have countless options for... more

We went at rush hour in Calgary in the middle of the week and so there really weren't too many people there. They did play very current music but contrary to some of the reviews I wouldn't say it was overbearingly loud. I've never been to a bubble tea restaurant, as I'm from the states and my only experience has been with bubble tea and a cafe style selection of food. I absolutely loved the... more

My favorite place for wings and bubble tea. been a fan for 10+ years. Dewdrop is the best drink hands down!

Chicken wings and bubble teas are soooo good! Other food are at an average level. Its a great place to socisl with friends. Too bad the hours of operations isn't hood as they dont open early.

Food is excellent. The only critict that I can give is that the tables are too small.

Tonight I checked bubblemania's hours while badly craving bubble tea I decide to cab. Says they close at 12.
I call to place an order, im 2 minutes away. It's 11:40.
She interupts me and says "yeahhhhhhhhhh.... Sorrrrrryyyyyy"
What?
"We're closed sorrrrrrry".
I told her the website says midnight, I am in a taxi and just want 1 bubble tea to go. Sounds like the staff are still there,
"Yeaaaa,... more

Wings were delicious, wish there were more drum sticks.

Coffee ice cream shake was yummy.

Mushroom dumplings were the best I've ever tasted... Don't burn it and everything will be ire.

Taro slush was refreshingly creamy.

Sweet toast was acceptable to my high stands.

Jack fruit shake was okay, could have been sweeter.

From the states here!! And I've have always been coming to bubble mania every time I am in town. But this place has changed a lot since I came 8 years ago. I believe it took over the business to the left of it. And the menu has changed or well the layout at least. The old menu looked like they had more variety of bobas but they still have the ones I like (shooting star and red bean) the wing... more

Once upon a time in Calgary, I was hungry. Thankfully I was in a car with my friend and he was hungry too. So we both decided to drive somewhere to eat. He thought of Peters' Drive-In and this place. We saw the line-up at Peters' - no way in hell we'd be lining up. So Bubblemania it was. My friend described it as like a chill techno club that wasn't a club but was actually a cafe where all the... more

Always busy on weekends, Bubblemania is usually the de facto spot to head for bubble tea and chat with friends.

AMBIENCE/SERVICE: A decently large establishment that can get quite stuffy and loud on busy nights. Lighting is rather dark. It's also a nightmare to park especially when it's busy. Staff is friendly and servers were quite attentive. 1.5/2.5

FOOD: When I am hungry, I will usually... more

Haven't had the food here but I have enjoyed the bubble tea. The selection is good and my favorite is the coconut milk. The pearls have always been fresh and the staff is nice. Will keep coming here!

I was invited here for wings, typically not my type of place but I was with a group of friends and this is where they wanted to go.

Service was slow, but they did have a huge selection of beverages and almost all tables were having wings.

We placed our wing and drink order and this is why I am giving them only two stars... The non Asian tables, ours, only got served the wing with the tip... more

I've always liked Bubblemania Café! The food is actually quite tasty and the BBT is good. What I always appreciate is the friendly service. They are always busy in weekends and most evenings but it never stops them from greeting you kindly and taking your order. When ordering takeout they're quite fast. Parking can be tedious at times, but walking a block isn't a huge deal. Sometimes I do find... more

Food and drinks are good here but the service is little slow to start. Come here often with my clients and family. Drinks are always consistent, the thing that I love most are their chicken wings I can eat 2 dozens of those. I like the fact that I can customize my drinks just like Starbucks.

Second time going to this place in one month. Love the wings and the drinks. Favorite Slush is Sweet Dream. The milk teas are also amazing. The staff is really quick with bringing out orders. And love the layout of the restaurant, its unique.

Bubble tea is just okay, not anything special. Better than the ones in the mall.
We also had wings, again nothing special.

The only thing that set this place apart from others is the ambience.
The restaurant is obviously catered towards kids. When I walked in everyone turned around to look, the place is filled with highschool kids screaming. I felt like I had just walked into chuck e cheese.... more

Meh.

Coming from Atlanta, I have tried a good number of bubble tea places in my time. Bubblemania is completely different from any that I have tried at home, mostly because the servers that I eyed were not Asian and the ambiance is similar to that of a disco. As someone who enjoys mellow hubbub (is that an oxymoron?!), Bubblemania Cafe was not putting me in my zen zone.

Bubble tea is... more

This place used to be good a few years ago, I'll give them that. But now, it is nothing but an overpriced place to eat with really bad service, food and atmosphere. It's almost like with every renovation they've done, the place gets worse....
For starters, everyone knows people go there for their wings. It is over rated. For $7.50 you get 10 wings or you can pay $0.50 cents per wing (order of... more

Awesome Prices and Great Atmosphere

Loved the vast options for bubble tea at Bubblemania. I had the avocado, but also tried the avocado and taro and the passion fruit. This is my favourite place for bubble tea in Calgary, the flavours are done just right and the boba itself is the perfect texture for my tastes. Our table also tried out a few of their... more

Good place for Taiwanese style BBT food. Every food item that I've ordered here has been a hit. BBT itself is of average quality; I would come for the wings, fried rice and beef brisket noodle (very hard to find a decent rendition in Calgary)

Solid bubble tea café. You can't go wrong here. This is my favorite joint for bubble tea in Calgary. The food here is good too. So you can wash down a greasy, tasty late night food with some bubbletea.

We had an amazing server who went above and beyond the typical service. Thanks man!

Must try the malaya

The malaya bubble tea is my favorite. This is one of the best bubble tea cafes in Calgary. I usually get take out. Even when they are at capacity it rarely takes longer then 5 minutes to receive my drinks after placing my order. Sometimes service seems overwhelmed/unorganized when eating in. Chicken wings are a excellent as well.

I love the wings here!! And bubble tea too of course :) I go here on a regular basis, service is friendly and place is kept clean. I

If you love bubble tea you gotta try Bubblemania!! :)

This place is not bad... The bubble tea is really good, and all other appetizers are ok... Is not fancy at all... But the ambience is ok, and the place inexpensive.. Maybe I will go back If I am driving around the area and want to have a bubble tea of different flavors... more

Not bad, not bad at all.

Bubblemania like a mix between a club and a bubbletea shop but hey, it's a party in there.

We went on Monday night around 10pm and it was packed to the rim. Always a great sign.

Food specials every day. And 35 cent wings? The wings are actual wings meaning wing + wing tip as well. Does that matter? Maybe.

The food is super reasonable and decent.

4 stars.

Tonight I went there to get takeout bubble tea for myself and 6 friends. When I went in, there was a strong humid smell in the restaurant, nobody greeted me. There were people seated left and right, and multiple lines, there didn't seem to be much of an order. I understand it can get busy, so this does not affect my score. I walked up to the counter, looked at the laminated menus provided and... more

This is my favourite bubble tea place in the city. We go at least four times a month. The bubble tea is amazing. Service is great. And the food is good! Only thing I could ask for now is some pho!

As soon as you walk in, it feels like everyone turns their head and stares at you. The food is alright, BBT is a little overpriced as you can get it Downtown for $4. The service is alright, if you're lucky, you can get an experienced server.
Had a very bad experience once (to my friend), the server asked for more tip and even said "have you parents never taught you how to tip?"

The food is... more

This is my favourite place for bubble tea hands down. Any time we are driving to Calgary I must stop here for bubble tea and chicken wings (which I love because there are no drumstick pieces!). They have original flavors, and the cost is definitely reasonable!

My husband always gets the rice which is a huge portion, full of chicken, pineapple, etc. and very delicious! This can be eaten as a... more

I very much enjoy Asian cafes because one, I love bubbletea and two, I love curry fish balls. And the foods pretty good, prices are reasonable and the staff work hard to please you. Do expect crying babies and loud teenagers when you're here.

If you're a teenager and need a date night spot because you're not allowed into the bars yet and too poor to hit up a fancy restaurant with your new girlfriend yet, then you're probably at Bubblemania Cafe. Seriously, I felt like a chaperone in the sea of teens all hangin' out and drinking bubble tea-staff included.

The selection of bubble teas and drinks is impressive, though if you're in... more

Not that great... comparing to the boba shops we have in LA. it was pretty packed but when we arrived there was not really a wait. So I hear that theirs been a change of management, remodeling, and the price of food has gone up. Chicken wings have gone up in price now at $0.75 a wing, we got them with seasoning salt and the wings themselves were not bad, they were fried perfectly, crispy on the... more

Love bubble tea but one afternoon when we went in and there was no one there we sat down with three people. Two of us were just going to have bubble tea but my wife had some dietary restrictions because of health so wasn't going to order. We were told that everyone had to order and that the bill had to come to more than 20 dollars. So we left. I've popped in for a bubble tea here and there and... more

it was kind of disappointing visiting this place after the 2 month or so renovation. the new menu, in my opinion, wasnt as good as the last one. all prices have gone up, no more breaded porkchop or chicken. the chicken wings while still good, are now more expensive except on wing day which is now only mon-wed. no more happy hour wings too. just getting a seat and trying to get out of the place... more

Food: 2.5/5
Drinks: 2.5/5
Service: 3/5
Overall experience: 2/5

(1- Terrible; 3- decent; 5- Fantastic)

Bubblemania (Bubbles) has been through about 3.. maybe 4 renos over the past 8 years. Its recent renos includes expanding into the space next to it which provides twice as many seats as before, and is more open/spacious. Its layout and decor has changed drastically; you can barely recognize... more

A wonderful place to drop by for a nice refreshing bubble tea and some very nice meals. Unfortunately the popularity of the location means you will have to wait for a table. Particularly in the evening times. With groups you are probably best to make a reservation.

Aside from the interesting renovation, the service and menu are both excellent. A great selection of great tasting bubble tea and... more

I've been going to bubbles for a really long time now. My spot of choice if I am not craving ovaltine bubble tea (which they don't carry) and want some wings. Walking in the restaurant you can see it is very simple.

Bubblemania has a baby blue, brown, white and black interior which I find is a very neat and simple theme for them. The tables and chairs are set up in a grid like manner, a total... more

This is a good review, I like Bubblemania!
HOWEVER, I must comment that in my opinion it was a much cooler joint an about 2006 and prior. They had black and white homemade checkered tabletops made out of floor tiles, a rack of free to read Asian car and fashion magazines, and you could smoke your face off. More of a "hang out" than just another restaurant if you know what I mean.

These days... more

a place with cheap wings all week long, no need to wait for wings night wednesday. drinks are really good, i like the jade special, or almond milk tea iced or hot, for wings i like the salt and pepper or plain with a side of spicy terriyaki sauce. The pineapple fried rice is good at times sometimes theres not enough pineapple flavor but its good either way and also the house special udon. open... more

I don't know what's up with Bubblemania, in my humble opinion they're going down hill for me.... but I do recall loving the bubble tea and snacks they have so I thought I would give them another chance. I called them the other day to ask about the hours of operation and found out they now serve BREAKFAST!!! I asked what kind of breakfast they serve and the gentleman said "asian fusion with a... more

I LOVED their Strawberry Pocky Bubble Tea, it tasted just like Strawberry Pocky, and if I remember correctly, it even came with a stick or two. In fact, I loved it so much I've been trying to find a place in Toronto that serves it, so if you know of a place that does, please do inform me (and NO they don't have it at Destiny's).The décor was nothing special, for some reason it almost felt like... more

This is officially now one of my favorite places to hang out, first of all its always full of peeps so there is a great energy in the air, plus its full or Asians.. Love that!!

The staff here are polite, efficient and are all hot and the wings are cheap and delicious plus there are like hundreds of exotic drinks to order.

You can have an special funky colorful drink heaped full of fresh... more

Went there on a Monday night and it was super busy as usual. The food selection seemed really good. I did take out because I was with some out-of-town friends and we wanted to go back to my place with the Bubble teas. The selection was OK. I ordered something with no bubbles and jelly instead, in which I paid for the jelly. Out of the three orders, only 2 came, and only 1 was made correctly.... more

My first time at Bubblemania was a revelation. I had never had bubble tea before, so when my fiance suggested we go with friends, I had no idea what I was getting into.

As most know, and as I quickly discovered, bubble tea is awesome! I'm partial to anything with mango in it. Most places that I've been to since offer compatible drinks. In my experience, actually, most bubble tea tastes the... more

To say I am a fan of Bubbles (as us frequent goers call it) would be an understatement. This has been my friends and my choice for bubbletea since the beginning of our driving days (that was 7 years ago - yes I am old!) Unlike other bubbletea places, Bubbles is open late and offers a great variety of food and unique drinks until the wee hours of the morning. It's a great setting for a first... more

Sometimes you just need a quiet night out with friends, or a quieter place to hang out after a rowdy night out. And for both of these occasions, Bubblemania fits the bill.

I've been up here a few times - it is located off of 16th Ave and Edmonton Trail and is quite convenient for me. It's always packed, and I like the lounge like decor and restaurant style seating. It still feels like a classy... more

I went there tonight for wings and "bubble tea". The regular and the salt and pepper wings were fresh and crispy. They have a Happy Hour special - wings for $0.25 Mon thru Thurs... and many flavours to choose from. I also tried their fresh fruit slushy (jackfruit) and it was delicious. The japanese-style deep fried scallops were alright but a little on the dry side. Overall the experience was... more
