50 Best Bubble Tea near El Monte

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

“Best Boba ever me and my parents loved the taste it was so yummy 10/10 Thank you :3“

“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.“

“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.“

“South El Monte is full of Asian foods and this place is where people come for Taiwanese items and boba. There are about 10+ other options for boba stores in South El Monte though this spot is one of the best for prices. It is affordable and give good deals, better than boba stores in cities like Monterey Park and Arcadia so people always come by and shop here.“

“Drive thru...blessing. Props to the person who thought about the design replacement of this location it is a drive-through next to a grocery store. What person hasn't woken up early to go groceries and realized OmG I need my coffee and this place is right here! Drivethru was fast and friendly.... I tried the mint Serrano and If you are not a fan of mint don't try it if you are this is delicious and I wish I wouldn't back to get a second one after I was done. It was a perfect combo of sweet savory and foam. As variant plays later when it melted and I actually could have more. Love the freshness of the mint and as I opened it I saw the fresh mint! I will come back again for a revisit

Parking: Drive thru available“

“Just went back with my family. It's open!!! We've missed this place and before they closed, they changed the cook which changed the taste. Can officially say TASTY BOWL IS BACK!!! Open and with the same taste as the beginning!!! So good!! Everybody was very happy with their food. You know it's good when no one is talking and only eating ?? SO HAPPY, 10/10. They also have a couple of new items, I believe? They have a new Takoyaki sign as well with a beverage and something else. (My picture is the beef ramen without the broth inside, the broth comes in a separate bowl for takeout to maintain the texture of the meat and ramen as you travel to your destination which is very considerate of them!)

Parking: Plenty of parking for them, usually always a couple spaces to park.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have handicap spots closer to the building and space for wheelchairs to get to the front.“

“We love the El Monte shop very friendly and vary good boba love it“

“Always get the buy two get one sandwich deals.
The 🥖 baguettes are fresh and tasty and the meats are thin and soft melts in the mouth. The teriyaki chicken with rice plate is large and very filling.
Their 🐄 Pho is pretty good too, the broth soup is really light and good flavor.
The desserts are not too sweet, all good.“

“It was my first time coming to Chapresso. I was really impressed that they used tea leafs to make the tea. The tea tasted great! They also had good service. The simple design of the place is inviting but the space is limited. However, they do have open sitting outside the shop.“

“A bit different from your traditional Boba tea shop. But I do highly recommend it to try this place if you do like something new to try. Their cheesy fruit smoothie is one of the greatest drink I ever had. Perfect sweetness, ice cold and somehow it just feels like burst of freshness and flavors melting in your mouth. One of the negative though is the long wait time, there wasn’t much people ahead of me, but I had to wait about 20-30 minutes before I could get my order.“

“Delicious 🤤 got three drinks and all amazing. Highly recommend l!“

“We love Boba Friend. We visit here frequently and I like that they have non-caffeinated drink selections for my little one who is obsessed with this place. They also have an option where you can get a mystery plush keychain with your drink. That one is always a fun one to get. We've got quite a few keychains. Highly recommend this place.“

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

“New Boba spot and I love it. Their prices are very reasonable and I love that their boba is always fresh and soft. I always order off the swirl menu. Add creme brulee to your drink. They also have fries, onion rings, and cheese sticks. Love the plain cheese sticks, only thing missing is the marinara sauce. They give ranch but I don't like their ranch. It tastes weird. I tried the plain onion rings extra crispy. They are ok but leave a grainy after taste. I'll stick to the cheese sticks. But I love their boba. I go almost every day“

“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 😭“

“Very kind and friendly staff! Everything was freshly made to order, juicy, and very flavorful. This was also very affordable. The scallion oil noodles, and beef/cilantro dumplings were our standouts but we loves everything we ordered.

We would love to revisit someday when we travel back to this area!“

“I was very impressed by the taste of the teas. The milk tea has a strong flavor and the fruit teas are very refreshing. This place has reasonable prices and also often runs promotions! The place has a cute aesthetic and has board games to borrow.“

“Yi Fang in Arcadia is my go-to spot for boba! The drinks are always great, and the quality never disappoints. Ordering is super easy now with their touchscreen kiosks, which make the process quick and efficient. There’s plenty of parking, so no stress about finding a spot. The prices are reasonable, making it an all-around great choice for boba lovers. Highly recommend!“

“有趣的音樂 打眼的綠色 好喝的果肉“

“Fourth time trying this place, I do recommend it if craving for a tea, sweet milky boba, or slushy drinks with some hotdogs/meats or cheese snacks. They added waffles snack too. It was quite tasty, with friendly, helpful staff and cute small hidden location with free parking. The price is pretty good for buying one drink and getting 50% off next item. The passion fruit or lemon black tea are so far my favorite here. It was mixed well with great favors. The original hotdogs I tired had so many dipping sauces to select from that it was delicious. It is not a healthy snack, but it was a treat. Many other foods are near this plaza. I was pretty full after for under $10. They take both cash and credit card, have both a person to help order or those order yourself monitor, everything convenient plus a restroom for customers not like some other tea places.“

“Loved it 😍 refreshing, tasty and good customer service.“

“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.“

“Pretty good experience at this Tea Shop compared to other location I went to in Rowland. They have two order yourself stations and I was able to take a look more closely this time at their selection. This is located at the front, and although there isn’t any seating, besides a bench, you could take your drink and walk inside towards the food court.

I tried and enjoyed the Sunlight Fruit Tea. Got it with less sugar and less ice.

We got our drinks really fast, it was clean, what else can you ask for at a Boba place?“

“wonderful drinks and great service!!“

“First time trying out this place; our friend Peggy recommended here. We loved the authentic favors of our drinks and fantastic service from Sarah. Very attentive and making sure our drinks were good. Will come back again when we travel back to LA!“

“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.“

“When am pm coffee won't do and you only want quality coffee then this spot will satisfy your caffeine urge“

“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!!“

“There are a lot of traditional Taiwanese breads inside, which really brings back memories of my childhood, but the two clerks felt awkward standing there... I don’t know how to describe it, but the price of the bread is very good, and I will come again.“

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

“The drinks were good. The tofu pudding was legit.
Service can be slower as there is one person manning the whole operation from making drinks to punching cash machines.
The order app does not work when we tried.

Do note there is a free 2 hours parking at the back garage“

“Service - 5 stars
Lucy patiently explained the different options to us and shared her favourites!

Osmanthus rice ferment with fresh milk - 4.5 stars

Boba - 4 stars

Jinxuan mountain tea with fresh milk, no sugar - 4 stars
Tea could've been a bit stronger.

Taro pearls - 3.5 stars
Bit too hard.“

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

“We loved stopping in after an afternoon in the gardens nearby. Had a refreshing boba on a hot day. You can even choose the level of sweetness and ice! They had a combo where you get a sandwich and a basic tea for free! Good pricing and great quality. We will be back!“

“japanese rice tea/milk tea.“

“Little shop inside the market. I always come here for the popcorn chicken! I’m always on the hunt for the perfect popcorn chicken and let me tell you this place is freshly made. The crispiness is perfect. They have different spice levels and 10 out of 10 satisfaction . If you’re more hungry, they have other food options and lots of drink options with boba too. The staff don’t speak that much English pretty much Chinese only but you can point at the menu and you’ll be fine. There is plenty of parking outside, so you will never struggle to look for that. If you have time to kill, the market is directly connected to this spot so you can take a stroll inside the market as well.“

“This place’s tea quality was phenomenal. I got one of the signature drinks, you get a cup that’s reusable too, and if you want topping they can give it on the side because there is no customization with the signature drinks. The boba was QQ and hot!“

“Love this store very much! Old customer! ! ! ! Recommend Pink Peach Planet! ! ! And their milk tea! ! ! It tastes really good! ! ! I haven’t tried the others, but my friends said they tasted delicious.

Kid-friendliness: It tastes great, feel free to eat it! ! ! Very clean, no need to worry about food safety issues“

“Certified! If it’s your first time here start with the Superior Milk Tea (50% sugar of course). The price is reasonable around $4.50-$7 and the lady was very friendly. Their art and cups are really cool too.

Parking: Big strip mall lot

Kid-friendliness: Lots of drinks“

“Friendly service... good for everyone’s and good taste drink. Love boba time drinks“

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

“It’s always the best specially serves as a desserts 🍨 after dining out in the area. It’s always my last destination for satisfaction!!! Good job Yummy ❤️💚💜💙🖤🧡“

“Awesome drinks.. everyone must try“

“Twinkle Brown is my favorite Tea spot in Alhambra, everything on the menu is a must try and must have!“

“Okay, I’m from the east coast, so my perspective will affect this.
The boba tea was absolutely amazing. I got the strawberry milk boba tea, and I loved it. It was so cheap too, especially with the toppings I added. I got it with coffee jelly, boba, pudding, and it tasted so good. It also tasted like there was actual strawberry in there and not just strawberry flavoring. Had some strawberry bits in it too. I can’t believe how cheap it was, ($6.50) for a large boba with three toppings. Was also pretty fast too.“

“Ok, so this tea place is definitely in my top 5 drink spots. I love that they have so many flavors and mix/match options. The employees are always nice and patient. They always give great recommendations if I ask. And they have a fridge with discounted pre-made drinks that I love to grab. The triple shot is my favorite!“

“Loved my mango slush with ice cream and Brown Sugar Boba. It tasted like fresh mango and then got creamy with the ice cream. I did 75% sugar but next time I'll go 50% because of the ice cream. My partner had a cheese foam matcha drink and enjoyed it. We visited with some friends and their 5yo kids tried boba for the first time and liked the strawberry slush with strawberry boba.“

“Love all the food and the drinks are great too. Just afraid it will get too busy at lunchtime and no seat for me! :)“

“butter cookie coffee 👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀“
