Tea Restaurants near Alameda, CA

“Afternoon tea. Interesting experience. Recommend reservations. We went here recently (brother recommended this place). The place was quaint. We selected the tea for one. Each of us chose 2 sandwich flavors and a pot of tea. I got the flowering tea, it has a mild flowery taste and is visually pleasing. Sandwiches were an interesting experience. The coconut jam was surprisingly good. I personally got the meatfloss and the turkey with Brie and fig jam. The turkey was somewhat sweet. The scone was good too, along with the savory canapé. Dessert was good. I’ll have to come back again with my spouse and friends next time.“

“A very friendly, lovely people who are ready to engage and talk about tea. I’ve always loved to have Monk’s Blend as a nostalgic choice in the morning, but their puers and oolongs are also quite nice. I’ve been away from the Bay Area for a while, but recently dropped by their location to discover a very pleasant and tranquil place. If you get a chance, do check them out.“

“A beautiful tea shop with excellent tea and tea accessories. The staff were extremely friendly and showed me how to do gong fu style brewing for my yellow tea! In just one visit this has quickly become one of my favorite tea houses in the bay.“

“This place is a gem! I’ve been to Boba Nation a few times now and it’s quickly become my favorite boba spot. The variety on the menu is great there’s something for every mood, whether you’re into fruity teas or creamy milk-based drinks. Last time I got their strawberry matcha latte, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had.“

“Great food and we will definitely visit again“

“The tea here is nothing short of magical. Absolutely everything I’ve tried and look forward to finally making it into their shop one of these days!“

“Finally got to try this spot and can say that the matcha quality is very good! The hojicha as well was toasty and nutty (aside from the sesame that blended with it so well). The service was also very pleasant and helpful. Definitely will stop by to try other matcha and hojicha types.“

“It's really nice in there. You occasionally get a loud & noisy large group of students in there but it's right next to the UC Berkeley campus so that's their majority of the patrons. Parking is difficult in the area, it's located at the corner of two one-way intersections.“

“I feel that Heytea's quality is really consistent, even though its price are a bit higher than other boba shops.

This time I tried their Coconut Matcha Bbo, which has cloud, macha, coconut milk and boba. It tasted great, the flavor was on point. I ordered on their app, which makes it easy to customize your drink. Highly recommended!“

“Warm, Friendly & Comforting“
