A build-your-own ramen counter paired with honey-sweetened boba tea is heading for the Las Vegas Strip. Bumble Tea Cafe and Ramen is expected to open its first Las Vegas shop at 3049 Las Vegas Blvd S, Suite 10N, inside the Gold Key Shops strip mall on the northern Strip.
According to WhatNow, the planned location was identified through a permit filed with Clark County, and the Gold Key Shops sit near Tacos El Gordo, Encore, and Resorts World. Co-owner Domingo Baccay Jr. confirmed the upcoming debut to the outlet, though the chain's own website keeps things vague for now, saying simply that Bumble Tea Cafe and Ramen Station is “buzzing into Las Vegas” with an “opening date coming soon,” per Bumble Tea Cafe and Ramen's site. No confirmed opening schedule has been verified beyond that.
What's on the Menu
The brand's website describes a lineup of boba milk teas, real-fruit teas, tropical smoothies, fresh pastries, and a ramen station where customers build their own bowl — all sweetened with honey and made to order, the company says. The reported ramen menu spans Japanese, Korean, and Thai styles, along with vegan and vegetable options, according to the same WhatNow report.
Per that report, the noodles are cooked in about five minutes using a Neo Cusina ramen cooker, letting customers assemble a bowl and grab a cold tea in the same stop. The site describes its self-serve setup as part cafe and part noodle lab, with customers able to cook ramen fresh on the spot alongside their drinks.
From Bakersfield to Hawaii — and Now Nevada
The Las Vegas location would mark the brand's third storefront. WhatNow reports the founders first established and popularized the concept at 5601 California Avenue in Bakersfield, California, before that original shop closed permanently in September 2025. The company then expanded its DIY ramen format westward, opening in Honolulu, Hawaii, in April 2026 under owners Maricel and Jake Rosario, according to the outlet.
That Hawaii spot took over a former King's Tea space on Kalakaua Avenue, rebranding it into the interactive self-serve ramen-and-boba concept the chain is known for. A listing for the Honolulu shop on Toast describes it as a place where handcrafted boba tea meets self-serve ramen under one roof.
Anyone curious about the status of the Las Vegas permit itself can search Clark County's own building records. The county's Citizen Access portal allows searches by site address, contractor license information, parcel number, or record information, though the specific filing details for this project have not been independently confirmed. For now, Strip-goers craving a quick bowl of ramen alongside their boba will have to keep an eye out for an official opening date.
