Squishies has quickly become a Lake Highlands community favorite since opening in September 2021. Located in the Lakeridge Village alongside Vector Brewing and Soco Coffeehouse, the bubble tea shop has carved out its own niche in the neighborhood.
“After being open a year, and with fully trained workers, it was time to expand the menu,” says owner Frankie Nuccio.
Nuccio is a career restauranter, who also owns Pizza Gianna in University Park. With the success of Squishies, that career will only continue. The menu expansion includes new fruit tea flavors like blueberry and raspberry, and a plethora of new drink and slush recipes.
“Very soon, Squishies will have daily specials, and community contests that’ll be promoted through Instagram and TikTok.” Nuccio says.
Some of his ideas include a photo sharing contest and a boba-shooting tournament through the shop’s colorful plastic straws. The future of Squishies is brighter than ever, stop by for a drink and meet Nuccio and the familiar faces that frequent the shop.
