staff was rude, plus long wait at the counter with no attending
Rushed to get here before they close at 10:00PM. I arrive at 9:40PM, the chairs are put up and the female employee tells me they are closed… with the lights on and doors open. Then I ask what time they close, and she says “well, we close at 10:00, but like ,we are sold out of all of our inventory”. Wow, that is unheard of, I thought. They should close up if they are all out!??
Ordered a passion fruit green tea at 30% sweetness and got a drink that tasted like it was 100% sweet.. very frustrating bc why is low sweetness even an option if it's not going to be made less sweet
I was actually very excited to try this place because the location is great, was planning on coming regularly if the drinks were good but the sweetness is enough to make me sick
So good, thanks!
This was my first time having RareTea, and to me, it was just alright. There’s nothing too special about it in comparison to other boba places, at least to me. They had a few fruit teas, but I was pretty disappointed they didn’t have any strawberry fruit teas. In general, their selection was a bit limited. They had some other strawberry drink that was more like a smoothie, with a lot of blended strawberries in it. I ordered that with boba, and it was just okay. I’m not sure if I would order it again, I couldn’t finish it. At least it wasn’t busy, and it was easy using the self-serve kiosks. Overall, 3/5.
Less pricey than other nearby boba places!
Bought a boba, got an extra for free
Im a fan of their strawberry smootea! Im excited to try their other flavors!

extremely disappointed by the matcha here--it tasted grassy and weak for some reason.
