Machi Boba
Machi Boba is Clearwater's gold standard for authentic Taiwanese bubble tea, founded by Wayne Ma and his wife — native Taiwanese — who saw a glaring gap in the local market and filled it with over 70 tea and drink combinations brewed fresh throughout the day. The menu spans durian and honeydew milk teas to taro and strawberry slushies, backed by a full Asian street-food kitchen featuring Vietnamese banh mi, ramen, Korean corn dogs, and 10 Yen pancakes. This independently owned Clearwater boba shop is the rare spot where cultural authenticity and culinary breadth coexist without compromising either. Two Clearwater locations mean shorter waits, but the Missouri Ave flagship remains the original.
