50 Best Bubble Tea near Baldwin Park

“Love it ever since I found about this place. Love that the wall is filled with anime & sometimes band logos drawings & stickers on their counter. Like the mango & peach icy (slushie). Buy one & get one free!!“

“usually, this place is so good. It’s like my go to spot for banana Matcha and brown sugar Boba…. Like it’s always 10 out of 10 that’s why I’m giving it a four but today… apr 12… The Matcha was like watered down and not that sweet and the Boba was not cooked all the way through…. All I’m gonna say is stop hiring teenagers… When the older ones are working, the spot is literally a 10 out of 10.. It’s always when they have new hires. The order gets messed up.“

“X Tea Cafe is definitely my favorite tea shop lately! The brown sugar boba milk tea is rich in tea flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, and the boba is perfectly chewy and soft — absolutely delicious. The shop is clean and bright with a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and chat with friends. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who loves high-quality tea drinks!“

“delicious food, great customer service, drinks are also great“

“This place has become my jam for Hawaiian food. And it's awesome that it's a short 10 minute drive from home.

Favorites so far include their house special mix plate and the mahi musubi. The house special mix plate comes with BBQ beef, chicken, and katsu with rice and mac salad. The meats are lean and the katsu is not heavy on the breading. Try the mahi musubi for an elevated taste, as you still get the goodness of the rice and seaweed but with a slightly crisp filet of mahi!

If you're pressed for time, call ahead to place your order for pickup. If you also plan to order fried items like the katsu or fried mahi, don't order the hour before they close as they might have cleaned out the fryer already.

There's a few parking spots but since this place is really a grab and go, it's not an issue finding parking.“

“I was drawn to this boba shop because of its high ratings and very reasonable prices! Located inside Chubby Cattle, you don’t need to dine at the restaurant to order here.

Here’s what I tried:

Osmantheous Oolong Milk Tea with Boba (less sugar, less ice): This was fantastic! The tea-forward flavor was exactly how I like my milk tea, and the boba had just the right texture—not too chewy and not overly sweet. I’d definitely order this again.

Strawberry Oolong Tea (less sugar, less ice): A little on the sweeter side for my taste, but still a great deal at just $2.99.

To my surprise, they were running a buy-two-get-one-free special during Christmas week! The third drink that was part of the promotion was an Iced Strawberry Matcha, which was quite sweet but still a nice addition to the experience.

Overall, this spot offers great value and drinks—I’d happily return!“

“Surprisingly spacious inside! They do have a rear lot, but street parking is probably your best bet. It’s definitely more of a social hangout than a quiet study spot, but the layout works well. Despite the crowd, service was efficient, I had my two drinks in less than 10 minutes. The peach oolong was a pleasant surprise and better than expected.“

“Really liked this place overall. Tried their new Chinese‑style milk tea and one of the camellia tea drinks, both pretty solid. Tea flavor is strong but the finish is really clear, not that sugary mess, which I appreciate. The camellia one has this gentle floral thing going on that hangs around a bit after you sip. Staff were friendly in a low‑key way, helped me pick without pushing anything, tbh that matters. Atmosphere felt calm, soft background noise, easy to sit with my phone for a while and just zone out. Prices felt okay for what you get, works for me.“

“Love this place love the meets they host the drinks are really good and so is the tofu“

“Best Honey Green tea in all Southern CA. Actually, better than the ones in Taiwan. They spare no cost in using only the best quality tea and ingredients. Once you tried theirs, you can’t go to other places anymore. Many of their bread like the red bean bun is a must try and the birthday cakes are always freshly made daily and not too sweet. They also have full sheet part tray fruit cake that are cut into 96 slices, best for large parties or events. Highly underrated and a hidden gem!“

“Best Milk Tea spot that makes custom drinks for the rest of my crew! Very Chill Place for people who enjoy cars and Cards! 100/10
Bring your Family and Friends too while ur at it reading my Review 🫶🏼☺“

“Beautiful Design and great Boba 🧋 the best is the Hawaiian 🌺fruit drink 🍹“

“First time stoped by after getting my hair done. Beautiful inside and great customer service. Ordered there new drink a watermelon lemonade with lychee so refreshing.“

“Great boba chain with consistent drink quality. I visited the store near Lunar new year time and was given red envelopes with mu purchase. I went to pick up my fav drinks with them, which are mango pomelo sago and winter melon milk tea with grass jelly!“

“El Monte doesn’t have too many good boba spots, but Ono Tea House is a decent option. Prices here are a little lower than most places, which is nice.

The tea itself is just okay — not super strong — and the drinks can lean on the sweeter side. I usually order mine with 1/4 sugar since I don’t like them too sweet.

Overall, it’s not a spot I’d go out of my way for, but if you’re in El Monte and really craving boba, it does the job.“

“Cute coffee shop that's open late.
Was in the area and wanted some hot tea. Unfortunately, most in the area close early. They are one of the few that are open late.
There's plenty of free self parking.
The cafe is clean and has a few indoor tables and plenty of seating.
The staff is super friendly and helpful in selecting a drink from their large menus.
You can customize the tea.
I ordered a hot tea with 30% sweetness level. It was good.“

“✨ Location
This fairly new boba spot is located in West Covina, right on the corner of Glendora Ave and E Service Ave. I believe it opened around two years ago, so it still feels pretty fresh and new to the area.

🅿️ Parking
Parking was pretty convenient. There is street parking available, and there is also a small parking lot in the back for the building’s tenants.

🏠 Interior / Atmosphere
The shop itself looks bright, clean, and inviting. It has big shop signs, sofas, and a few cute spots where you can take pictures. From what I heard, they also host K-pop gatherings from time to time, which gives the place a fun and unique vibe.

🙋 Service
The staff were friendly, interactive, and easy to talk to. They answered my questions with helpful information and made the experience feel welcoming.

🧋 Drinks
I ordered the Guanyin milk tea, which was recommended to me after I mentioned that I prefer a stronger tea flavor. It was a good recommendation, and I enjoyed that the tea taste came through well. Even though I ordered 100% sugar, the drink did not taste overly sweet, which I appreciated.

⭐ Overall
Overall, I had a good experience here. I would personally rate this place around a 4.3 to 4.7, but because the staff were so interactive and welcoming with customers, I would give them a 5. Keep it up!!“

“Stopped by a small boba spot in La Puente and it turned out to be a hidden gem. The drinks were fresh, not overly sweet, and the boba had that perfect chewy texture—exactly how it should be.

What really stood out though was the service. The lady who helped us was amazing with my kids—super patient, kind, and made the whole experience even better.

The place itself is simple, clean, and has a chill vibe. Definitely one of those spots you want to come back to. If you’re in La Puente and craving boba, it’s worth checking out and supporting local.“

“Really good drinks! Super fresh and well-balanced, not too sweet and not watered down. The tea flavor is strong and high quality.

Highly recommend the black tea ice cream — really fragrant and not too sweet. Definitely coming back again.“

“Fresh fruit, handcrafted toppings, and drinks you won’t find anywhere else?🍊🥥🧋 Say less.

If you’re looking for your next boba spot, Lucky FruiTea in San Gabriel needs to be on your list. They specialize in premium tea drinks made with fresh, seasonal fruit and creative flavors that stand out from the usual menu.

Here’s what I tried:
🍫 Cracking Dubai Chocolate Slushy (Top 10) – rich, chocolatey, and topped with crunchy chocolate goodness.
🥭 Papaya Coconut Slushy (seasonal) – tropical, creamy, and super refreshing.
🍑 Creamy White Peach Milk Tea (Top 10) – smooth, fragrant, and perfectly peachy.
🫐 Fresh Lychee Slushy – packed with real lychee flavor and incredibly refreshing.

Don’t skip the snacks either! The Popcorn Chicken is crispy, juicy, and the perfect savory pairing for your drinks. And if you’re craving dessert, the Mashed Taro Oolong Milk Tea Gelato is creamy, earthy, and absolutely worth ordering.“

“Ever since this Tea Spots (Azusa/Amar) opened my 2 daughters and I have been enjoying everything this establishment has to offer. I would suggest that most people if not all should try one time n u 2 would be hooked too. Their Milk Tea with black boba / fresh fruit smoothies, ices with fruit and can’t forget their delicious menu. They have healthy food and fried food like baked sweet potatoes fries and dinner plates also ramen bowls. They have 5$ 7$ n 9$ individual plates that are delicious. We have had most of their food and it has all been very umpslish. Try it yourself u will not be disappointed. EA“

“The store is bright and fun. Staffs are young with joyful smile. Of course the drinks are great which bring the happy day.“

“Great environment, staff and drinks, and they help support local small businesses. Great place to be!“

“This Horchata boba 🧋 is delicious 🤤! The service is awesome, long lines but well worth it 🤤“

“I came into lollicup today looking for a drink, but what I didn't know is I would find is love and a hint of lust. The employee who armed the register was so delicious i got nervous and rode away on my scooter. She saw me fall on the cement and loose two of my front teeth. Don't worry my grandma is getting veneers and i'll be back for my true love.“

“lovely tea shop! their drinks are cheap and are very tasty. they have lots of seating space, so it is perfect for studying or just hanging out. staff are friendly. do be warned that on weekdays around 3-5 pm a bunch of students come from the nearby high school, so it gets really busy and crowded around that time.“

“Recommended to us by a local restaurant owner, we took a drive over to try them out. They have an amazing fresh fruit selection (including persimmon, which I hadn’t seen before) like strawberry and watermelon (which is one of my favorites).

We like them so much we’ve made the 20 minute drive several times already during our short stay. The drinks seem to run a little sweet so I make the less sugar option. They seem to automatically add a jelly to the drink (at least the several we’ve ordered).

Overall this place is great and highly recommended“

“I love the strawberry yakult with aloe Vera. They even let you adjust the sweetness level and ice amount. The night shift are so sweet. Even if you’re just looking for somewhere to just sit and finish some assignments or to sit and chat it’s very cozy.“

“I went to the shop for the first time last week to purchase the stainless steel bottle and tofu meal. The young lady that took my order was helpful by explaining to me a couple of the features on my new bottle. While I do love my new bottle I do wish I didn't have to remove the straw to close the lid and unfortunately it doesn't fit in my cup holder. The tofu is delicious and the rice with kimchi (slightly fishy), seaweed (a little sweet) and pickle is also good. Definitely looking forward to the fried tofu again and I'm using my bottle everyday!“

“We got cheesy hot Cheetos dog and mozzarella & hotdog. It was so good! Cheesy, crunchy, and such a perfect snack. I seriously wanted to get one more but somehow stopped myself lol.
Definitely recommend for anyone who is looking for good snack also with boba.“

“This is an unassuming shop from the outside, but it really surprised me. There's a good ammount of seating, having both an inside and outside that are both pleasant. We ordered the strawberry slush with boba, large shaved ice, and churros. The churros were filled with a delicious custard. All dishes had super cute presentation and attention to detail. As an example, the Lychee jellies inside slushy were star shaped. Would love to come again and highly reccomend!!“

“Ming Cha is known for teas, and I feel like their logo is very similar to that of Chagee a bit. What I really enjoyed here was the black sesame dessert. I would come back just for that!

You order from a kiosk so you don’t really interact with the server.

Parking is plentiful. No bathrooms. Credit card/Apple pay is accepted. Not much seating in here.“

“I have been trying various milk tea places in the area to find a place that would cater milk tea for my upcoming wedding. My wife could not have the wedding without having milk tea served to the guests. My wife and I tried the champ milk tea here and decided that this place was the one. Their portions are much larger than other shops, and the tea flavor is pronounced and not covered by sugar/milk. The manager, Ryan, was super helpful in preparing our bulk order for the wedding, and it was a major hit during our wedding. Definitely come here for their various milk tea flavors, and also highly recommend their Kumquat green tea! Thank you Tea Champ!“

“Tried this place for the first time since I was in the area. Got a brown sugar milk tea with boba. The tea was good and not too sweet. Boba was nice and chewy. I like that I was able to order online and just pick it up. Would come back here again!“

“Not really a Boba fanatic but came here with some friends and had some refreshing and ultra delicious Taro Tea with Boba. It was so chilled and yummy that I will definitely come back as well as on Tuesdays as they have some size-up deal. They make their own Boba! Quality and taste is tops🏅🏅🏅“

“Stopped here by chance looking for a boba shop, and I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered the Milk Tea with the taro balls and the Nutella Mochi Taiyaki. All I can say is I wish we had one of these in my area! Especially that taiyaki, it was so warm, tasty but also very light. I hope to stop by again sometime. If you're reading this and feeling unsure, just try it! You won't be disappointed.“

“After dinner nearby, we knew we wanted boba afterwards and purposely saved room for it! R&B Tea was on the opposite end of the plaza, which worked out as we worked off a little bit of dinner by walking here.

I ordered a jasmine green milk tea ($5.75) at 50% sweet with easy ice and boba ($0.75). Just the right amount of sugar with the right consistency for the boba. Would definitely order again (and also possibly try their matcha milk tea or roasted oolong milk tea). Post-dinner boba craving met! Thanks Tiffany for taking care of our large group order!

They have two small tables in the front and more table space in the back for hanging out and playing board games. We picked The Logo Game and learned new facts about products and logos and what not from the game. Did you know that Baskin Robbins had 31 flavors particular to cover each day of the month? I didn't, until the game. Fun times.

Plenty of parking spots in this large plaza.“

“Was a perfectly fine boba place. We had the coconut based drinks, osmanthus and jasmine, with cheese foam. The osmanthus is more fragrant, perfect at 75% sweet. The jasmine probably needed 100% sweetness because it was a bit lighter in taste.

Quick and efficient service.“

“Giving this a 5 star rating all around although the guy at the register wasn’t necessarily the friendliest however I can admit he seemed like a hard worker, he was at the register then the back making our order so it’s ok. Everyone there seemed to be having an amazing time hanging out. My husband and I were just in the area and decided to check out the nearest boba place and I’m glad we landed here (wink), hubby got a Thai tea, I know he’s so basic lol and I got the pink peach tea both with boba. I would definitely order my drink again, so delicious. We also got the honeydew yogurt squares and omggg I def recommend them I wish I would have gotten atleast another flavor to try.“

“Really nice service and very yummy boba! We ordered the strawberry matcha and butterfly coconut and they both were delicious. I needed mine without dairy but forgot to ask, she graciously offered to remake it for me at no extra charge. Thank you!“

“The Spring Oolong Tea Milk Tea was perfect for me with its sugar adjustment. I can taste the actual tea; no powder involved. The shop itself is small and very cute. Support your local businesses! 10/10 would recommend to a friend! The tea is good.“

“Neighbors Tea House offers the most exception beverages and sweet treats, like their Smashed Avocado and Durian and soy pudding. I’m still making my way through their menu but there hasn’t been anything I’ve ordered that I didn’t wish I ordered a large of. Their team is exceptional, especially during COVID. You can order online to expedite your experience. Be sure to say hi to Hailey, the owner, who always comes up with these amazing beverages. Will definitely be back!“

“Nice little spot for boba. Sunright has always been our go to place for boba. I’m just glad that this location has the taro milk tea boba that I’ve been missing since the one by house does not make them anymore. Yummy!!! Craving satisfied!!!“

“This is the place you want to go to if you want a boba. There’s So many options. Although, there is many options , I always get the same thing lol. I’ve been going there since 2017!
All the girls that work there are AMAZING and lovely !!! Alyssa is sincerely the best! As soon as she sees me walk in , she knows my order and is already making my order lol. The other girls know what I like as well lol. Now for the two guys that work there , they are honestly rude from time to time ,not always friendly nor welcoming. I feel a huge tension when they are there. The girls are what makes that place feel warm and nice and enjoyable. They deserve extra tips and a raise! 🖤🫶🏼🖤“

“customer service and delicious tea ! love this place!“

“our best nights here in jin teahouse great location convenient friendly staff and best place to hangout with your friends and also great best place for dates.... its actually they good selection of food most recommended place...“

“有趣的音樂 打眼的綠色 好喝的果肉“

“The new franchisee will not accept my gift card purchases from previous owner.

5/5
this gift card saga has a happy ending.
We went to the shop again and ran into a employee from the old franchisee ( still working there).
The old owner did instruct him to return the money.
Thanks!“

“Always great service. Dropped my boba when i got home so i went back for another and they replaced it no charge! Love being a regular ☺️“

“I went crazy because they have a lot of things here, but they specifically shake something 17 times here’s what you should know… Number one everything is super delicious here so it gets really easy to become addicted to it

I had to do the Matcha latte with pistachio cheese foam. I went less ice and I went crème brûlée on the flavor of the foam and it was delicious. This is way too good. The ordering is simple. It’s a touchscreen process. You’ll be issued a number and you will not regret those drinks!!“
