Leafly Boba Bar opening new Urban Supply location in Birmingham

Inspired by their shared love of boba, Huy Vu, Keoni Evans and Minh Vu founded Leafly Boba Bar in 2022 as a tribute to their Asian heritage. Over the past three years, the company has earned a loyal following in Huntsville. Now, the owners are bringing its full lineup of authentic drinks to The Magic City.

“Opening in Birmingham feels like coming full circle for us. When I lived here, there weren’t any great boba options, and now we have the chance to bring a truly high-quality experience to the city.

We’ve built Leafly Boba Bar around real ingredients and real flavors, with no shortcuts. Our hope is that people don’t just grab a drink and go, but that they make Leafly a part of their daily routine and a space to connect with friends, study or just take a break from their day.”
Minh Vu, Co-owner, Leafly Boba Bar

The new Birmingham location will feature all the iced teas, milk teas, fruity drinks, matcha lattes, specialty drinks and mochi waffle pops that customers know and love in Huntsville—plus, they plan to introduce exclusive Birmingham-only drinks in the near future.

The new Leafly Boba Bar is located at 1227 1st Ave South, Unit 105 in Urban Supply; a new mixed-use development featuring a variety of entertainment, dining and office options connected by a pedestrian-friendly layout.

“Urban Supply is all about creating a walkable, vibrant district where people can experience the best of Birmingham, whether that’s food, culture or community.

Leafly Boba Bar fits that vision perfectly. They bring a fresh, high-quality concept to the neighborhood, and their focus on craftsmanship and authenticity aligns with the energy we’re building here.

We’re excited to see them become a part of the Urban Supply experience and a new favorite for Birmingham’s boba lovers.”
Drew Watson, Senior Development Manager, Urban Supply
