When owner Jackie Zhou moved to Durham, she... quickly started her search for great boba in the Bull City and decided to open her own shop. In addition to boba, you can get snacks like popcorn chicken and gyoza.
A couple of years ago I began searching for the best boba tea spots in Durham and I finally found one. This is by far the best in Durham! I’ve tried several others and I always come back to Quickly. My family and I love it, the staff is great, and they always exceed our expectations.

I come here all the time, I love their tea and the food is amazing! I love when they have the cafe music, just something a little different than the K-pop which is fun but can get a little repetitive. Super cute shop and perfect for studying and date nights with my girlfriend. Very affordable prices, highly recommend but I would love to hear some different genres of music.

Literally love this place, friendly workers and nice vibe! Kpop is playing a lot which i personally dont love but that would be my only complaint. Other than that its wonderful!

The Hong Kong egg puff is to die for. Fried tofu is also excellent, interesting spices. I love the purple cookie monster snow.

Quickly is my favorite bubble tea shop! They're less frills than some other places, but they have the essentials down pat. They're also so much more affordable than anywhere else, and they have a great punch card system where every 10th drink is free. They're the only place you can still get a bubble tea for like $4! And their boba is sweet and just the right chewiness. They know what they're doing here, and their shop is really cute on top of that. Highly recommend!

The tea is great and the boba is usually perfectly chewy, the popcorn chicken is by far the best thing there and they're not even a fried chicken place. It's a must Everytime I order 😸

I love the maid cafe events they sometimes have! Otherwise the tea is fine, the snacks are pretty good, and the atmosphere is fun if a little loud
I really like sitting outside when the weather is nice

Best boba tea in North Carolina that I've had! Coming from the West Coast, it's been difficult to find quality tea shops around the state and I can happily say that Quickly is just fantastic. They absolutely nail the coffee milk tea that I love. The Okinawa (brown sugar) is excellent too. They have a rewards program to get free drinks, and an incredible variety of teas and flavors. There's something for everyone here! You won't regret stopping in!

Great, wide selection of teas (and other items like slushies). But black tea was very weak, almost to the point of watery. Boba was perfectly firm and chewy. Limited selection in this area so probably explains the higher reviews than one would expect.

We go there often during the weekend. Absolutely love their chicken popcorn and mozzarella stocks. Their fried tofu also tastes amazing! Give a try!
