Boba Catering Services We Bring to Park Ridge

Guests choose from classic milk teas, refreshing fruit teas, and smooth matcha lattes, all made with real ingredients and premium tapioca pearls.The truck is made for Park Ridge’s busy outdoor season: Taste of Park Ridge at Hodges Park in Uptown every July, the Park Ridge Farmers Market on Saturday mornings, the Fourth of July parade and fireworks, and summer concerts in the park.
