Bopanda: Our Favorite Bubble Tea Spot in Beirut!

Bopanda has quickly earned its place as one of the most vibrant spots in Beirut, adding a fresh and playful vibe to the city’s bustling streets. It’s a delight to see that the bubble tea craze has become more than just a passing trend, with places like Bopanda turning into must-visit destinations for those craving delicious drinks and cheerful vibes.

Here’s a rundown on everything you need to know about this bubble tea spot, and why it should be your new favorite place to be in the city.

What We Tried (And Loved!)

We decided to taste-test two very different options: the Peach Juicy Bo and the Chocolate Lava Latte. Watching their barista prepare your drink is oddly satisfying (seriously, if you’ve never seen how bubble tea is made, it’s kind of cool).

The Peach Juicy Bo was super refreshing, with just the right mix of sweet and fruity. The Chocolate Lava Latte was rich and creamy—basically a chocolate lover’s dream. Highly recommended!

Feel-Good Vibes Galore

You can’t help but smile as soon as you step into Bopanda, whether it’s because of its vibrant decor or their charming staff. You’ll go from browsing their collection of anime collectibles and adorable plushies to cracking jokes with their baristas.

This is a comfort spot in every sense of the word. From the delicious offerings to the friendly faces behind the counter, it’s the perfect place to kick back, relax, and make new friends.

And for the anime lovers, they’re always playing episodes from random animes on the TV screen above the counter. You’ll probably end up binging Spy x Family while you’re there.
