This place has been one of my top boba spots since I was in high school. Its perfect after get the Jazz cat meal. I always get the number 3, but sometimes they make it too sweet idk why. They dont have promotion get a free upgrade to a larger size in weekdays anymore only weekend. The shop was small but cute, service was good.

I love this place, have been going for years, the one thing I absolutely love is the boba, it's warm and soft and yummy! So fresh!!! They have such great sweet girls working there! I recommend it if you're looking for fresh boba! Oooo almost forgot about the custard pudding that they put inside the drinks, if you never been, try it at least once in your lifetime!!

One of the best fruit tea spots in RH! I got the lychee green tea with hot honey boba. And wow, the jasmine tea was really fragrant and strong. The lychee syrup wasn't overpowering the tea, and regular sweetness at this place tastes around 50% at most other shops, which is perfect for my liking. The honey boba was hot when it came out, and had a nice chewy texture to it. I came on a weekday, and they had a free supersized upgrade. The service was fast, and the store had cute traditional decorations! This place has a wide variety of drinks, and I would def be back :) Some other of my favorites here are the wintermelon green tea and the brown sugar milk tea. 10/10

This place has been one of my top boba spots since I was a kid! Half and half holds a unique flavor that I have yet to try in any other place. My go-to is always the black milk tea with boba. It's the perfect after meal "dessert" especially with the amazing food options that surround the boba shop. I have always had a positive experience at this half and half. The staff is always super helpful and they even help me venture out with giving me new flavors to try! The shop is a little small on the inside but there's plenty of outside seating space to hang out and talk while you drink your boba!

I remember coming here once a week in high school and there was always a line. But boy has it changed since then. There wasn't a line on a Saturday afternoon and the boba was terrible! Super hard and the amount of caramel they put in it is insane. Cup of diabetes. The one good thing is, they finally changed the cups so it fits in the cup holder Other than that, it's a pass. There are other places you can go to in the area and get better quality drinks

Every time I go here they always offer a free upgrade to large drink. I like the value that I get with each drink because of that. I've gotten their ice milk drink and their Thai tea drink and both were very good. They make their drinks really fast and there's a few seating areas in the spot but it wouldn't really be able to accommodate large groups of people. It feels more like a grab and go spot. This place isn't one of my top boba spots but it's still pretty good all things considered.

Truly a nostalgic blast from the past. I remember I was in high school when I first had Half & Half and taking a sip of my drink during my last visit reminded me of the simpler times. They did make changes so now the cup is taller and the bottom is narrower so it can actually fit in your cup holder. Menu has expanded immensely and there's multiple different types and flavors for drinks along with adjustments and toppings. For food they have brick toast, takoyaki, some Asian snacks and chips to purchase (shrimp chips and the like), instant noodles, dumplings etc. There's not much in terms of seating here except some chairs near the wall and the sofa, but there's tables and chairs under umbrellas outside. Service was efficient and there was no one else there except for us on a Monday night. I got the fresh almond milk tea with their honey boba and pudding at 50% sweet and less ice. Almond milk is by default a pretty sweet drink and even with the halved sweetness it was still pretty sweet and had a slight artificial taste to it. Perhaps I should have just gotten their classic milk tea or a different beverage base, but I feel like where Half & Half really shined, if my memory serves me right is through their toppings. The honey boba had a nice sweet honey taste to it and the boba was nice and warm. Chewiness was decent and the pudding wasn't too sweet either. I know there's lots of boba options now as compared to back in the day, but Half & Half is always a good place for memories.

Pretty sad to say the least, as this was one of my go to go spots for boba back in the day. The quality of the Boba has greatly declined and upon receiving my Thai milk tea with 50% sugar; the Boba was rockhard. They do a pretty cool special on the weekdays where you get a free upgrade to a large drink, but the overall taste of my beverage was subpar. With so many different other Boba shops and nearby competition as fierce as it is, I would take my money elsewhere.
Stopped by this location after having lunch at the hot pot place in the same parking lot. I had the Passion fruit green tea + Aloe Vera. The flavors were great and the aloe was a nice touch. It was the perfect palate cleansing refreshment after having spicy hot pot. The order took about 5 minutes or so. Not bad at all. I wouldn't have a problem stopping by here again.

The worst location thus far. Ordered a caramel black milk tea, less sweet, no ice, with egg pudding (had to pay almost $7 cash to avoid an extra card fee). It was a busy Sat night...and the last boba I would have on my visit home to CA. What a disappointment. It was bitter water dressed in brown.No trace of milk, caramel, no sweetness save for the pudding. The order came fast...but at what cost. They may have just wanted to avoid brewing more tea at the end of their shift. Either way, the first Half and Half miss I've had in over a decade. Don't risk coming here.

I love half and half tea. I have drank this tea for five years.
Authentic Taiwanese boba shop. Very large size. Boba is very chewy very delicious. One thing about their milk tea is that you can taste real tea leaves with strong flavor, which is really good.Various flavors to choose from. Their sugar level is adjustable (personally don’t like too sweet, always get quarter sugar)**Use cash! They charge additional fee for using card!
