About Tea House Boba

Tea House Boba stands as the UK and Ireland’s premier brand for authentic bubble tea and Asian street food. Founded in Belfast in 2019, the brand was born from a passion for the vibrant flavours and cultural joy of traditional Chinese tea culture. Since its inception, Tea House Boba has successfully bridged the gap between traditional Asian beverages and the modern UK high street, creating a "people-first" brand with a loyal customer base.

As a franchisee, you will be joining a rapidly expanding network that prides itself on quality, innovation, and community. Unlike standard beverage outlets, Tea House Boba offers a comprehensive Asian café experience, combining handcrafted drinks with curated food items to drive multiple revenue streams.

The Franchise Opportunity

With established trading locations and a proven operational system, Tea House Boba is now searching for motivated partners to expand across the UK. Whether you are looking for a compact retail presence or a flagship café, the brand offers three distinct investment tiers to suit your goals and local market demand.

  • Kiosk: Ideal for high-footfall shopping centres (Under 100 sq ft).
  • Shop Counter: A versatile format for busy high streets (100–200 sq ft).
  • Full Asian Café: A complete lifestyle destination offering both tea and street food (200–300 sq ft).

Your Role as a Franchisee

As a Tea House Boba franchisee, you will be the face of your local business. Your role involves managing daily operations, leading and motivating your team, and engaging with your local community to build brand loyalty. You will follow our established brand standards to ensure every "bubble" served meets our premium quality expectations. While no prior experience in Asian cuisine is required, a passion for hospitality and customer service is essential.
