50 Best Bubble Tea near Buena Park

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

“We were hoping to try their tiramisu soufflé pancake but it wasn’t available. We tried the strawberry and ube instead. Flavor was decent, easy on the sugar. The pancakes were good, not too eggy. The place itself was quaint and comfortable. The service was pleasant, the food was cooked fresh.“

“Muy bien atendido y muy buenas vividas 🥰🥰🥰“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“This is the best place ever! Their quality is so good!!! My favorite is the coffee especially with the foam and different options for foams! It tastes so good and is the perfect consistency! Whatever you’re looking for in boba they have it!“

“Staff is super friendly Drinks were made well. This is a different kind of boba place.

They have a large selection of flavors and items but willing to help you narrow it down.

My boys stayed to their staple mocha with honey boba, Milk tea and coconut.

The drink was very well made. No complaints. Definitely recommend if you are in the area.“

“Visited from Rochester, NY. I had never had apple or peach boba teas before. Excellent. Great service as well.“

“I love coming by after a game of Airsoft or a shift and the drinks are amazing, refreshing, and the perfect treat to recharge. Mango lime tea or Mango yogurt smoothie top tier (Don’t forget to add mango popping boba AND mango star jelly) - ALSO big shout out to Diego, 10/10 customer service, when I wanted to get a drink and lost on something else to eat with it, he goes above and beyond on customer service and hospitality. Coming back in a week and the week after and after and after and…“

“Summary: fast service, delicious black milk tea, reasonable price.The Gong Cha near where I live closed a while ago, and to be honest, nothing would beat Gong Cha in my heart. My favorite drink is the simple black milk tea with 50% sugar.When I visited this place during the weekend, there was no line and wait. Service was fast. The cashier who took my order was super friendly and patiently responded to all my questions as it had been forever since the last time I had been at Gong Cha.“

“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!“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. Their Matcha is something I have a craving for almost every week! Mom also loved it and my sis showed me this place. 10/10 the owner is the kindest and works very hard. (Did I mention they have a massage chair for waiting)“

“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.“

“This is a wonderful family-run boba shop. The owner is always super friendly. They make their drinks to order, instead of pre-mixing them like other shops. And I appreciate that I can get my drink with regular milk, instead of non-dairy creamer being the only option.“

“I’ve been to a lot of boba shops, and this is one of the few that keeps me coming back. The drinks are consistently good, the prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes, and the staff always go out of their way to be helpful and accommodating.

What really stands out is how willing they are to customize drinks. Every time I’ve had a special request or wanted to tweak an order, they’ve been happy to help. That level of customer service is becoming harder to find and makes a big difference.

Prices are great! The Thai Tea Blossom was great and tapioca is always on par. The Vietnamese coffee with the Thai tea is my favorite. The ingredients taste fresh, the boba has great texture, and the drinks are made with care.

More than anything, this place feels like a business that genuinely values its customers. Great drinks, fair prices, and friendly people. It’s become my go-to boba spot, and I recommend it to anyone looking for a local place to support.“

“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 tried the Fluffy Matcha Milk Tea and Aiyu Honey Lemon Tea. Both drinks were delicious and the sweetness was just right to my taste. Highly recommend!! <3“

“Usually boba shops don’t stand out from other boba shops. Except this one. This Cerritos outlet of 7 Miles Tea Lab has more creative blends of toppings with different textures and tiny taste bombs. I would select lower sugar level since the ingredients being blended seem already sweet enough. Unless you are a super sugar tooth. As said these are serious dessert drinks and much less like your simple milk tea with tapioca boba balls. They only have one kiosk to order your drink sk there might be quite a wait if the customer ahead of you cannot decide what to order since the choices of drinks and toppings are varied. There is plenty of free parking in the strip mall parking lot.“

“They are awesome and even had us try different samples. Made our group feel so welcomed when we came here the very 1st time. We will definitely keep coming back when we are in this area.“

“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!“

“We mostly order the matcha storm in this location. But I personally love it. So far one of the best matcha within OC . Especially with the pudding its very nice. My kid loves the strawberry milk tea too. The spot is not too crowded and a lot of parking. They also have lots of promos so dont forget to signup.“

“Excellent milk teas and snappy service. My discount coupon was lost but they gave it to me anyway. kudos“

“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“

“Love all the bopomofo cafes, I have to go every time I visit SoCal and every friend / family member Ive brought loves it, they use the freshest ingredients and have cool seasonal items like a scallion pancake wrapped chicken supreme wrap, guava matcha. You cant go wrong with the pineapple chicken sandwich, the strawberry corn drink, the shrimp walnut sandwich, etc. I love this place so much, the chicken is always very juicy. The employees are so nice and this place has wifi and a nice work space. Its also nice for dates and has a chill vibe (saw some people having their first dates here)“

“We had Boba Bee cater our 110 people wedding in August of 2025. They were very responsive to our emails to our concerns and we were able to sample a bunch of teas at their location. They were able to adjust the sugar level to our preference on all the drinks. They did all the set up themselves and had the best price around Los Angeles. Their fruit teas and strawberry milk [for the people who can't do caffine] were very popular and they made sure we had one on our wedding day. I recommend the Tropical Fruit Tea and the Thai Twist!“

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

“Amazing, Outstanding!!! Drinks were Awesome!!!! Visitor from Colorado who drinks coffee everyday and I must say, this coffee satisfied my thirst, will Definitely be returning again.“

“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.“

“Milk foam topping on your tea ✅ Compliment your tea with a sponge cake✅. It’s all 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.“

“Ambrosia Tea is easily one of the best boba spots I’ve been to. The shop is super clean, which already sets it apart, and the overall vibe is really welcoming.

One of the coolest parts is the claw machines, they’re actually winnable. I ended up winning on my second try, which never happens, so that alone made the experience memorable.

The Thai tea was excellent, really authentic and true to how it should taste, not overly sweet or watered down like some places. You can tell they care about quality.

Also, a huge plus, they let me split my drink, which is something not every shop is willing to do. Small detail, but it makes a difference.

Overall, great drinks, fun atmosphere, and solid service. Definitely coming back.“

“Great boba! I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha and one of their signatures, the Hokkaido Milk Tea... The matcha was delicious and the brown sugar was a nice subtle twist! The hokkaido milk tea was a bit sweet for me but otherwise very enjoyable. In the end, I think the matcha was my favorite“

“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!!!“

“Cocoa cream wow 🤤 es delicioso 😋“

“On the way home so stop by this place to try it out. So impressed by the Teapresso, the aroma of the shop, the act of brewing one cup at a time. Definitely worth the money! The cup is full of tea and boba, just light ice and perfect amount of sugar! Will come back whenever I’m in OC.“

“I came here twice now, and it's been fantastic. The passion fruit cane was delicious, as was my coconut milk tea. Not too sweet as requested. And now, my matcha latte was very refreshing. Service was great! The store owners were very friendly and helpful, explaining some items I wasn't familiar with. Overall great experience, and I'll be coming back for everything else on the menu ^^“

“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.“

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

“1. The drinks were well-crafted! My favorite is the strawberry ecstasy!
2. The spot has fun casual vibes! Interior is cozy!
3. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in less than 10 mins!
Note: I do not remember seeing a restroom available for customers!

“Just tried Teaspoon and it’s fantastic!“

“butter cookie coffee 👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀“

“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!“

“Nice vibes…………………..!!!!!!!“

“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 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!“

“We recently ordered two boba drinks from Bobuzz, including their signature “PMC” with boba and “The Dark White.” While the overall flavor of the drinks was comparable to other quality boba shops, the tapioca pearls (“boba”) were unfortunately undercooked, which detracted from the experience. Additionally, offering customers the option to customize the sweetness level would be a welcome improvement. While there is potential, the overall experience left us with mixed feelings. Personally, it wouldn’t be my first choice for a dessert stop after a pleasant meal, at least not for now.“

“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...“
