Gluten-Free at Kung Fu Tea

Kung fu tea is my go to place for gluten free Boba tea. They have items that contain wheat clearly marked on the menu. There are many options that don’t contain wheat. Tea drinks are prepared in the cup that you drink from, so we don’t have to worry about cross contamination of shared equipment. If you order a blended drink, be sure to ask about cross contamination as they do have a shared blender.

Great classic bubble tea. Staff is still pretty new, but tries to answer questions. We’ve been to other locations in this chain, so we know what to order (classic KF milk tea and the honey milk tea are safe).

This is a bubble tea place. They have some snacks but I only ordered bubble tea. The menu is marked with the items and toppings that contain gluten. Almost all of the drinks are gluten free.

I ordered a Taro Milk Tea with bubbles, tasted great

They have clearly marked on the menu what is/isn’t gluten-free with the majority of options being gluten free. Most teas are safe, but of course I would be careful about ordering anything blended or that type of thing if you’re celiac, even if the tea itself is gluten-free. Great option if u want to get boba!

I drank bubble tea from here for two years straight and assumed it was safe because it was marked so on the menu and website. I was very sick and couldn’t figure out where it was from. One day the staff told me that their boba was not gluten free in a very certain tone. I’m still not sure if there is gluten or not but I would recommend avoiding to be safe.

Bubble tea specialist with a selection of other hot & cold drinks, including coffee & slushes. Gluten free options are indicated on the main menu. The staff were friendly, understanding and willing to clean the blender and utensils before preparing the gluten free drink to avoid cross contamination. I would definitely visit again and will be my regular go to for drinks.

They only really serve Boba and it’s more often than not gluten free. They clearly mark which drinks have gluten on the menu. This is my favorite spot back home so I was excited to find it here!

Excellent service from the staff! They helped my daughter and I who have celiac disease review the drink ingredients and made sure to use all clean containers. We had the Oolong Tea and the limited edition Kirby bubble tea! They were both fun and delicious.

Was going to order from here, because I've had good experiences at other locations, but they were swamped and only rinsing out their equipment between orders. The order which would have been before mine was an Oreo slush. Did not trust them to take preventative measures. Fortunately there's a Bibibop (dedicated GF) down the street. Not what I wanted, but avoided the hanger.

Gluten free bubble tea is clearly labeled on the menu. This place is inside an Asian food court type place. Love it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Kung Fu tea is a chain with many locations around Houston. They label which drinks are GF.

The menu lists GF options (most things are, except the Taro drinks and anything with cookies or certain sauces). I find it to be pretty safe, just let them know you are gf and ask them to rinse out the shaker if you are sensitive.

Teas that contain gluten or dairy are clearly marked on the menu. Any of the non-gluten containing teas that can be made directly in the tea are totally safe. Some of the teas that are shaken (milk teas) are made in shared shakers but they will clean out the shakers for you! The boba is gluten free :) passion fruit green tea with boba is my fave!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Excellent! Their boba tea pearls are gluten free. They have a menu listing which drinks are not gluten free. I believe it’s the Taro Tea and one other type that is not gluten free. The tapioca pearls are very filling and I use it as a meal. They will happily change their gloves and rinse things off if you ask. I have not, and have never gotten sick.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great boba tea spot, as well as many other tea/drink options. Their menu is very clearly marked with gluten free options, and includes most of the menu. The tea had great flavor and was very refreshing after a hot day with lots of walking. There is a lot of seating set up for people that need to study or work on their computer.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
