50 Best Bubble Tea near Brea

“Randomly found this gem while looking for after school snacks. What a find!!! They have a tropical smoothie thats actually a halo halo smoothie! The owner and cashier were also super friendly. I know where to get my halo halo fix in the area.“

“Friendly staff, great deal, fresh drinks made to order, and honestly the best Taro Milk Tea I’ve had!

Thank you for the great experience and I’ll hopefully be back to visit family and return for more!

PS: your cups have been the talk of the evening, after surviving a fall in the car and not spill… don’t change them if you don’t have to“

“I don’t even know what to say other than you gottaaa be kiddinnnng me with how delicious the King Brulee on ice is…. Like wooooowwwww.. sweetest and best drink I’ve had in a long time. The quality of their boba itself.. chefs kiss 😙 too good“

“Just tried Teaspoon and it’s fantastic!“

“I’ve enjoyed all the drinks I’ve grown here. Staff has always been friendly and nice whenever I’ve gone too. Even when it’s busy, the line is still much shorter than the Irvine location. Only con is that the parking lot gets a little chaotic.“

“Pretty good! ??

We're always super wary of food court shops, but this place is way better than we expected. They offer a decent menu and the drinks are pretty well made. Compared to other boba shops, the price is adequate and the flavor is similar.

- Passionfruit Green Tea: 9/10 - nice flavor but a bit watered down
- Boba (Topping): 9/10 - good but not a full scoop

The workers were quick and the place is located in the food court of Brea Mall. I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and will definitely come back! Highly recommend!

Not bad for a place in the food court ?“

“Love the quality and quantity! Fresh and delicious ingredients!“

“吃台灣的平民美食，有回家的感覺。“

“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!“

“The spot is super cute and the gal who made my tea was so friendly and helpful. Quick too I swear she made my drink in like a minute. I got the matcha blueberry latte slightly less sweet with oat milk instead of dairy and with boba. It's really good matcha and the blueberry is a sweet pairing for it. 🫐 There was plenty of parking and plenty of seating inside. They have some cute t-shirts and bags and claw machines which is fun and a sweet little photo op but this looks like a nice place to hang out for a bit with your matcha and get some work done. I will definitely be back.“

“You leave Disneyland tired with your kids and all you think about is a quick and delicious dinner that won't break the bank. This is the perfect place! Excellent service from the owner, great prices, villas, and tables outside the establishment to relax your feet after a fun-filled day. What better way to end the day than with a delicious pizza 🍕? They even provide plates, napkins, cheese, and chili so you can just enjoy.“

“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!“

“Went to this place and was surprised at how clean and organized the place was. Staff was friendly and made the drinks super fast. I got the Peace Lychee drink with Boba and it tasted amazing. The boba was soft and chewy (in a good way). I went to other places and the boba was not good at all.

Overall this place is a great place to get your boba kick, the price was VERY reasonable. Would recommend!“

“really great milk tea along of choices and Vietnamese food“

“Perfect spot for a girls’ hangout! The atmosphere was beautiful, clean, and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks were great too.

I ordered the Biscoff cake (10/10)—a must-try if you have a sweet tooth—and the Mango Mint Refresher without the mint (8/10), which was refreshing. Overall, a wonderful experience!“

“If I hadn’t parked to walk over to Lux Spa, I probably would’ve never noticed there’s a Happy Lemon in the same plaza.

We kept it simple and ordered the E3 Lemon Aloe Yakult ($6) and E1 Green Tea Yakult ($6). I make lemon and green tea Yakult drinks at home sometimes, but somehow the ones from a shop just taste better. It honestly brought me right back to the drink stands in Taiwan. Same nostalgic flavor. I guess I just don’t buy boba and specialty drinks that often anymore because there are way too many new Asian chains opening in the U.S., and I can’t keep up.

They’re actually known for their salted cheese foam drinks and egg waffles. If we hadn’t just eaten, I definitely would’ve added one.

Service was quick and the staff was friendly. I think I just found my go-to spot when I’m craving an authentic Taiwan-style drink.

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“This is my favorite go-to boba spot. The owner is very friendly, and most importantly, the boba is always fresh because it’s carefully managed by the owner. They’re generous with the fruit, and you can really feel their genuine passion for boba.
I’ve moved to a different area so I can’t come as often, but whenever I’m nearby, this is always a place I make sure to stop by.“

“Friendly staff + gr8 service! Funky decor + atmosphere.BUT issues which owners can consider: 1. Where’s the recycle bin? Everything is single use plastics, but there was only 1 bin for general trash for landfill.
2. Why are syrups full of artificial flavors? e.g RED40 in the strawberry!? That stuff needs a warning label in Europe but here we lap it up like a pig plunging into slop. Probably a supplier issue- but surely spend a little more and get some better quality ingredients?
I ended up with a tea, and sure enough it was sweetened… can’t get away from all the sugar. I’ll try the black tea next time- maybe that’ll be sugar free!

Keep it classy Anaheim“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“Saw the ad on Facebook and coincidentally found the place today. I ordered the pineapple and strawberry drink which had yakult in it. It was such a pretty drink and very enjoyable. Fast service!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Friendly staff. Summer time on a Friday afternoon is quiet. He said they get busy after school since there is a high school nearby. Drinks all good. I got my regular jasmine milk tea with boba and Crystal boba half sweet. Good size and great drink. Lots of parking. It’s not a big place. Just a few seats. Would come back. Put your number in for rewards. Buy 9 get 1 free.Pricing is awesome. 4 big drinks for $25. And 2 of us got 2 toppings!!“

“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...“

“It’s an overall clean, neat and welcoming place. The set up and interior is modern and unique, the employees are always nice and friendly. Best black milk tea I have ever had for a great price! My absolute favorite boba place!“

“Very delicious drink, my family really love brown sugar boba milk and classic milk tea here“

“Plenty of parking in a big parking lot. Clean, spacious and cool vibe. I was there early when they just opened and mid afternoon so only one or two folks there enjoying drinks and waffles. Great, friendly service for sure. The place is cute and very selfies for sure with every corner or wall with different unique setup. The drinks are good, nothing special about it but just good. They do have table and chairs outside too.“

“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.“

“Don’t always believe what you see and that goes for me too! I totally misjudged this place from the outside but once you step in you’ll be pleasantly surprised to the decor and aesthetic of this eye pleasing place. The back patio is equally as gorgeous with it being so lush with plenty of seating for large parties. The drinks are pretty good but i personally think it would be a better experience if they offered dine in mugs or cups but that’s just my opinion. We ordered one of their Croffles with mixed fruit or berries I should say. It was good but a little bit chewy but still flavorful with an eye pleasing presentation. Overall the drinks and food were good and the service really good. So that there made it a great experience. So if if you’re in the area and want a nice place to hang out at with plenty of seating for a party of four or more than definitely check this place out.“

“Accidentally stumbled upon this cute place when I was lost looking for something else, lol. The interior is so cute and their menu has lots of options. The staff was very nice and patient with me and trying to figure out my adjustments.

Their boba is chewy and yummy and their lemon white peach is very refreshing! I'll definitely be back to try the bowls next time as well.“

“I had the bugolgi rice bowl and it was so delicious. I love all the veggies they add to it. Portions are good too which is nice. Way better than waba grill or other similar places. Definitely worth coming back. I will be trying more items on the menu!“

“My fave place to write and edit and have a little mom's escape for an hour from work and family work. Get a cookie! I usually order an Iced Matcha with Coconut milk - creature of habit. Sometimes they make recs for me to add a flavor or something fun and I always love it!“

“My favorite place for kumquat lemon iced tea with crystal boba. I love the vibe when you walk in is very peaceful and relaxing. They also use fresh fruits so you can taste it instead of too much syrup. Would recommend !“

“Very good drink- to my expected- Flavorful and not too sweet! I’m not a big fan of boba/milk tea in general, but I think I’m starting to liking it. Thanks chị Ivy @Cha2cha ❤️❤️❤️“

“Great place and great service.. my boys were playing jenga and uno that’s a real treat to have games at places like these“

“🍩 𝐌𝐨𝐜𝐡𝐢 𝐝𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐧𝐮𝐭 𝐱 𝐁𝐨𝐛𝐚 🧋 𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐭

And the Mochi donut I got was a butterfly I don’t know what’s it called but I got that donut and it’s so good!! I would definitely come back here (≧◡≦) 🧋“

“I went with my kids today. They have the cutest containers for the bobas. I got a milk carton and my daughter got a kitty. So cute!“

“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 ☺️“

“Close to home - easy commute - friendly shop, weekend frenzy - good for business“

“The boba is soo good! All the drinks we got were awesome except for the milk tea. The milk tea was not bad, but the flavor was just really strong in weird way? Like it was burnt or something. Either way their slushes are heavenly and the wide variety of flavors is so wonderful! I come here whenever im in the area.“

“small store with cheap, good quality teas! i had the boba milk tea, and it was pretty decent. the tea itself wasn’t necessarily mind-blowing but it was really good for the price and good quality. the tea wasn’t watered down and the flavor was quite nice and the boba was nice and perfectly chewy.

inside there is not much seating, but there are lots of tables and chairs outside. the staff were very friendly and they were quick.“

“yi fang will always be my #1 boba chain. I'm so glad that yi fang returned to this location, I was devastated when I found out they were closing but extremely happy that they're back. my favorite is their lychee fruit tea- super refreshing and yummy.

the staff here are always so sweet!“
