Finding the best boba in Toronto

Toronto boba is three cities in one trench coat: downtown and Chinatown for classics, Yonge-and-Finch for chain density, and Scarborough-Markham for the serious suburban competition.

Kensington Market adds hand-rolled tapioca specialists, while Queen West trades in photogenic cups that sometimes earn their hype.

Searching for the best boba in Toronto means picking a neighbourhood first. The GTA is too spread out for a single “best” answer.
