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!!“

“Literally the best boba I have ever had in a long while. The ingredients never hurt my stomach and the boba is never hard, always perfect. The matcha is a must have. The downsides are that this place is near a HS and they close pretty early.“

“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“

“very Americanized pho chain restaurant, but still overall good tasting food. I ordered #3 pho (steak and brisket I believe) and egg rolls. lots of meat and broth in the pho. my one gripe is that the pickled veg included with the egg rolls were cut very thick almost like matchsticks, not thin shreds like I typically find. it made the eating experience a little clumsy but good flavor and lots of filling inside.“

“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.“

“First time trying this place. Loved their teas and the super cute random photos on the top! ❤️🎁🎄🎅🏻“

“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.“

“I've been to this place many times and I really like it. It has a very thick tea flavor. They actually prepared a puppy cup for the puppy, with an egg yolk on top! I just love it so much!! The waiters were very friendly. Even though it was already past 9 p.m., they still faced every customer in a very good state. I will recommend it to everyone around me!“

“wonderful drinks and great service!!“

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

“New Place, not bad! Staff was helpful with good suggestions. When I got here, it wasn't super busy. Somehow, I'm normally the quiet one, but here, as low volume as my friend and I were talking, we still managed to be the loudest ones here. If you need to work or study, this isn't a bad option.“

“Price is right. They serve quick and dependable powder based boba tea drink that reminded me of college days. They have some other boba drinks too but I kinda like their non-lactose milk teas! I’ll go back and try for the other ones.

What really got me in the door were the pastries! I found the aroma, texture and flavors to have been a good quality!“

“Tenju Tea House has solid tea. A plus is they offer loyalty stamp cards! I think the 10th drink is free. There is a kiosk if you want to pay by card/tap, but you can order with the cashier too.

I thought they used to be in the 99 Ranch plaza, but I guess they moved here behind Yoshinoya. The parking lot is more tight and annoying to find parking here.

I wanted to mention that I was in communication with Peggy about catering. She showed passion and attention to detail. We ended up not booking them, but she left such an impression that I have to share it! Go hire Tenju!

-no bathroom (the one inside the nearby market is NASTY though)
-unsure about wifi
-Apple Pay accepted
-no outdoor seating
-parking lot but it sux“

“One of my favorite places for a boba drink. The shop has special events for arts and crafts, kpop fans, and holidays. I go for the delicious drinks. My faves are the orange milky way, sweet pink, and strawberry mochi. The Alaska sunset, honey lemon mint tea, and fruit tea are also very good. The service has always been great. I only wish they were open later. Sometimes my boba craving hits at 830pm and it's too late 😭“

“Their rock oolong tea is really something. Smooth, slightly earthy, and just hits the right note without feeling heavy—it’s got that vibe you want when you’re taking a pause. Tbh, the place felt pretty quiet while I was there, which worked for me. Service was chill, not overly chatty but attentive enough to make you feel sorted. Not much else caught my eye, but that tea? Would defo tell my friends to try it out if they’re into oolong.“

“Love the 開心果米麻糬,木薯粒&桃膠！I’d say I’ve tried most of the popular boba shops in SGV (ici/3CAT/motto/molly tea/cha redefine) and I can say this place’s the toppings is my current favorite. They are not too sweet or creamy and is hand made. This is def my new go to place for chewy and fresh toppings!!!“

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

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

“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.“

“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.“

“You can’t beat the price! Affordable and pretty good quality for the price you pay.
Favorite- passion fruit green tea with tea jelly and most of their fruit teas cost under 5$.
You can add a few toppings for free which includes- tea jelly, coffee jelly, boba pearls and pudding. Very popular so be prepared to wait in a line to place an order but the service otherwise quick.“

“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 lady staff is very knowledgeable about tea and patiently explained to me how the same group of black teas are different. I went at the good time, it was not too busy. Likely I will go again.
Hopefully there will be more vegetarian (snacks) menu in the near future.“

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

“tried this place for the first time! I got the strawberry matcha with boba, my bf got the strawberry peach blend with popping boba and they’re SOOOOO DELICIOUS!!!! sweetest shop owner too! she even gave us the leftover smoothie from my bfs drink!!!“

“We have been going to Boba Box since it was still doing the soft opening. We drive about 15-20 mins just to come here. My family found a new boba place that actually accommodate everybody drinking favorite. I don’t have to drive to Rowland Heights for Half And Half then go to West Covina for BYOB and OneZo. Then go to Dunkin Donuts for Matcha latte. Boba Box is amazing and drinks always comes out the same taste every time. Just the right coldness and amount of toppings. Keep it up the good work.“

“Not sure if that was a tea place for me. Firstly, it was really sweet. Even though you can choose your own preference of sweetness ( I chose 50%) my tea tasted overly sweet. I got the fruit tea. A different and distinct flavor from other fruit teas I’ve had. Both drinks tasted heavy on sweetness despite the level being 50% and other 25% . However, I would give this place another try since the flavors were distinct and the place was neat and clean.

It is a self serve and not to hang out tea place. So just order and go.“

“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.“

“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!“

📩 Boba boba! I had the chance to try out @bengong and it was super delicious!

We ordered:
1. Mango Mochi ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
2. Osmanthus Latte ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
3. Jasmine Tea Latte ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
4. Peach Latte ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I think the best Asian compliment you can get for dessert is the “not so sweet,” from your aunties, and this was definitely what it was giving.

The sweetest drink by far was the Mango Mochi which was served as a slush. It was super refreshing and a good pick me up drink for a hot day.

The tea lattes were also very good and are definitely a good option for less sweet items. My personal favorite between the lattes had to be the peach latte which was super refreshing and a good study drink!

Environment is also a good place to study and chill at, but definitely on the smaller side 📚🙇‍♀️📖

“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 was so surprised to find taro ball and mini taro balls here in the US-something I used to eat all the time growing up.the texture is perfectly chewy and not overly sweet.very authentic and nostalgic .highly recommended if you’re craving Taiwanese desserts“

“My new favorite boba spot in town! Super friendly service, drinks that are deliciously made without a long wait, and they happily take my reusable cups for my boba orders (I think they recognize me now lol)! I'm in Walnut about twice a month and have been stopping by Goomo for my boba cravings each time.

I'm still playing around with their menu to find my favorite drink. So far I've tried the orange green tea (50% sweet, no ice with grass jelly), passion fruit bomb, and green grape yakult and they're all good! Appreciate that they make the drinks with no syrups or artificial flavors and with actual pieces of fruit for the fruit drinks. Lately, I've been digging their jumbo cups of their classic milk tea and thai tea, both come with boba and is perfect for when you want a little more bang for your buck and just more drink overall!

My first time here I was more hungry than thirsty, so I tried their popcorn chicken, which was pretty solid. I need to come back and try their other food items on the menu.

Ordering is so easy here. Use the kiosk to select and customize your drink. Make sure to sign up for the rewards too, which also sends you a text when your order is ready. I found that after I place my order at the kiosk, I just grab their attention to ask if they can make my drink in my own cup.

Plenty of seating inside to enjoy your drinks and hang out with friends. Plenty of parking too. They are also one of the few boba shops that open until 10 pm so my friends and I come by after our evening Kiwanis meetings to grab some boba.“

“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.“

“I been dying to visit this boba place years. I'm not from the SG area so it took some time but the interior place was 😮 it's was like space 🌌. And I love the design of the menu. I ordered a rose and lychee fried yogurt and it's so delicious n pretty. Each has rose petals as decorations and it's sweet and tangy. Next time I need to try their jasmine yogurt and their drinks 🤤“

“South El Monte has some of the best boba in the world. South El Monte is also home to a lot of Taiwanese boba supplies companies and import so that makes people who start boba shop businesses in the South El Monte an easy access to the materials and that makes it all thrive. When I am not getting the 7Leaves down the street in South El Monte, I would come here to study Mandarin or work on software engineering projects remotely. I think South El Monte has a thriving community of Asian and boba drink lovers. Hello Boba adds another great addition to that one. Another great option is Boba Time which is also right down the same street. I love to get boba and then head to the King Taco place and drink boba with my taco.“

“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🏅🏅🏅“

“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.“

“Ming Cha is such a cozy cute cafe with lots of cute decor. The cafe is small but has some seating area and some board games to play with as well. Parking is shared with other businesses but there were enough areas for parking. The staff were super friendly and on point. Had assistance with some recommendations since we were quite indecisive with our choices since there were too many good options to choose from.

Got to try:
Roasted Black Sesame
Jasmine Matcha
Omanthus Oolong Milktea
Mango White Peach!

The drinks were light, refreshing, and wasn’t too sweet; it paired well with the cream tops. Would love to try some of their other items in the future!“

“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!“

“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...“

“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.“

“Stopped by after my service club's meeting for some boba. Very cozy setting inside with several seating options, plus the large patio outside. Make your way to the back to order first and then pick a spot to sit.

I got a delicious hot almond milk tea with boba and they were cool with using my reusable tumbler for the beverage! Solid drink. Too bad I was still full from dinner that I couldn't try any of their food items.

Another awesome thing is that they stay open pretty late, closing at 11 pm, which is a lot later than some of the other places around that close earlier at 9 or 10 pm. Though, if you're friends with the employees, they let you stay later (we were kicked out at 11 pm, while a group of 6 were allowed to stay).

Didn't have trouble getting parking on a weekday evening.“

“Delicious boba drinks. I’ve visited this location several times and the employees are always efficient, but the prices have been rising similar to other tea places in LA. Two options to order: at two self-service kiosks or with a worker at the register. I recommend the Oreo brûlée boba milk which was $6.95. They also have several kids menu options which are great for a smaller 16 oz drink instead of the normal 22 oz. They’re located at the entrance of a food court in a shared plaza with a super market and other stores, so there’s enough shared lot parking.“

“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!“

“popcorn chicken is tasty and the shaved ice is delicious. will come back“

“Everything is so fresh and yummy - all the fruits in my acai bowls and smoothies have been so sweet. And the service is friendly. There's often no parking out in front so you'll have to circle around and park in one of the Sierra Madre lots. There's some seating in the plaza across the street. AHHH I wish I lived closer so I could come several times a week! Highly recommended.“
