Our Story

Gravitea Boba is more than just a boba tea shop — it’s a creative, community-centered space born in the heart of Schaumburg, Illinois.

Our journey began in 2018 under the name Gravitea Cafe, but in April 2022, entrepreneur and business developer Humza Razzak acquired the location and breathed new life into the concept. With a bold vision, complete renovation, and reimagined menu, Gravitea Boba officially launched — introducing a fresh take on bubble tea and cafe culture to Chicagoland.

From day one, our goal has been to deliver not only delicious, handcrafted drinks and food but also a unique, welcoming experience that makes every guest feel at home. Whether you're here to study, chill with friends, or just grab your favorite milk tea, we’ve designed our cafes to be your go-to hangout spot. Our space-themed brand reflects that same creative energy — fun, futuristic, and full of flavor.

What We Serve
We specialize in handcrafted boba teas, fruit tea refreshers, smoothies, and flavored milk teas made with real ingredients and brewed fresh daily. But that’s just the beginning. Our menu also includes crispy boneless wings, golden waffle fries, melty grilled cheese, and a rotating selection of desserts and cakes — all made to satisfy your cravings.

Each Gravitea Boba location is committed to quality and consistency, with a team that’s passionate about great service and even better drinks.

Our Growth
Thanks to our amazing customers, Gravitea Boba quickly became a hotspot for bubble tea lovers in Schaumburg. In less than a year, we began expanding across the region, opening new locations in Chicago (Six Corners), Lake Zurich, Batavia, and Lombard. Every store has its own personality, but they all stay true to the Gravitea mission: bold flavors, cozy vibes, and friendly service.

And we’re not stopping there. With multiple new locations in development and a growing fanbase, Gravitea Boba is on track to become a nationally recognized brand.

Our Future
We're building more than just a business — we’re creating a community. Whether it’s collaborating with local artists, hosting themed events, or supporting youth organizations, we believe in using our platform to uplift the neighborhoods we serve.

As we continue to grow, we remain committed to the same values we started with: quality, creativity, and connection.

So come grab a drink, try something new, and stay awhile. At Gravitea Boba, you're always part of the family.
