50 Best Bubble Tea near Menlo Park

“I go here all the time- since I go to the middle school down the road it’s very convenient. I ALWAYS get this drink- Strawberry lemonade, normal sweetness, no/less ice, 2x lychee jelly, 1x mango jelly. It’s always so good every time! The tofu cubes are not good but I don’t like tofu in general so that’s just me. It doesn’t take too long- but really depends on how busy it is. The staff is nice but doesn’t talk much. The atmosphere is nice too! I love the vibes of this place. I don’t get tapioca boba but the lychee and mango jelly is so good, especially if you love jello or stuff like that. It’s chewy but not too chewy, and very sweet. I recommend if you like fruity/sweet drinks.“

“I actually love this place albeit I order the same milk tea with no boba everytime lol but the place is cute, it’s next to mami Cheli’s that has great pupusas and even next to downtown Menlo. I’m not much of a boba drinker so in terms of the drinkw can only say what I liked and their milk teas are great imo but I feel like the area and the aesthetic is quite nice (music would be nice though).“

“I probably ordered the wrong thing. I got their matcha drink with coconut milk since they seem to be known for coconut, but. I don't think those two flavors mix together at all. Also tried the mango mochi pudding which was okay, and the mango drink which was good. Probably my fault since I don't like coconut that much. If you love coconut, you'll like this place.“

“Wide variety of drink options. Drinks taste great! Place was busy Saturday night. Only con was one of the workers had trouble understanding me but they got another person to translate. Good service.
Drinks - pistachio jasmine delight, crème brûlée Thai tea, strawberry rose“

“This place is stuck in time. The boba price and food price is the same price boba used to cost years ago. The coconut smoothie is a good recommendation! The teas are also tasty and doesn’t taste nasty. 100% would highly recommend everyone here if they’re in the area.“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“My favorite boba place anywhere! Anytime I'm visiting the Bay Area, I make a point to stop by to complete my trip. The ingredients are fresh, and it always tastes homemade. I'm a creme brulee fan and their creme brulee boba is almost worth the cross-country flight itself.“

“I love Tong Sui!! Glad there's one near where I usually get my car serviced. Stopped by for the first time and they got A LOTTA flavors to try!! I love jasmine flavors and this summer they have it as a Jasmine Coconut Pudding!! Hope it'll stick around all-season instead!! Servicer is super nice and attentive as well!! Will come back!!“

“I have been a customer there for 1 year and I love it, this is best Boba place in redwood city, I highly recommend this place if you want Boba, whoever didn't rate 5 stars, I want what your smoking“

“I stopped in after grabbing a meal nearby, looking for any boba in the recent heatwave.
Let me tell you, I was in for a surprise and I didn't even know it.
Upon entering I was greeted by a comfortable and clean atmosphere and good music. To my surprise, just behind the glass on the counter was a worker actively making the fresh boba pearls!
Ordering the drinks went nicely and they had a very good selection of teas and flavors.
I opted for the simple and classic Brown Sugar Boba w/Fresh Milk, and it was one of cleanest, smoothest boba drinks I've ever had.
The owner was on site and she was very kind and generous by answering any questions and letting us sample her freshly made boba. She showed such passion for her craft and the business and it shows in the quality of the product provided.
The fresh boba she let me sample was absolutely delightful and had a flavor unlike any of the typical tapioca boba pearls you would find at your average boba shop.

Definitely suggest coming to Mr. Sun Tea and trying out their boba. A simple review can't begin to show the difference in taste and quality.

They have six locations in total and I will be visiting them regularly from now on. Officially my go-to boba spot.“

“A delightful find in Mountain View - local favorite boba place that has won Best of Mountain View awards several years in a row. Bobas are super soft and chewy! I would like my Hazelnut milk tea with stronger tea flavor and my husband’s Dark Plum smoothie to be slightly sweeter at 50% sweet. Not too many sweetness levels in some drinks - it’s either 100% or 50%, prices more reasonable than other boba places.“

“Excellent food and drinks“

“The bingsoo is so yummy! People are so friendly.“

“Enjoying my boba during this hot day👍“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

“You never go wrong with Happy Lemon for boba. The location is in the heart of Redwood city. The parking is a bit hard, then you walk to the strip mall to get to the shop. The staff was friendly. My friend accidentally ordered the wrong item, and staff were happy to fix it. The shop is small with few tables, but it’s very neat and clean“

“For those like me who care about the quality of ingredients and avoid unhealthy foods this place is great! No artificial additives, real milk and zero sugar options. And the large cup is actually large . I got jasmine tea with zero sugar and zero ice, 3 portions of red beans and 1 portion of boba“

“5 stars when the hardworking short girl is working! My drinks always come out quickly and PERFECT!

When it’s just the guys working, my drink is always cooked (sugar/tea ratio not right, wrong size, takes longer)

Pls give the girl a raise ?“

“Really small interior with two ordering kiosks - definitely a place for take-out only and they put up signs stating that. Their Black Milk Tea w/ boba was surprisingly solid for a place that doesn't appear to focus on milk tea boba. Their pandan mochi-waffle was not bad - had a hint of sweetness and pandan flavor. Great light crunchy exterior followed by the chewy mochi texture. Will def come back here for their milk tea and to try their other mochi-waffle flavors.“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“The boba was okay and the indomie was very much fancy instant noodles, but the place is very cute and very suited for studying or working! There's plenty of tables and very cute decor. Will try some more snacks off their menu when I go a second time; they seem to have pretty interesting choices.“

“ATMOSPHERE IS INTENSE ONLY BECAUSE IT'S REALLY REALLY BUSY. STAFF IS VERY EFFICIENT IN TIME MANAGEMENT AND HUNDREDS OF ORDERS PER HOUR.

All the Tea choices I have tried so far have been amazing. Lucky I get to come here once per week hopefully I will have a favorite within a month or two.

Kid-friendliness: kids are busy waiting with friends for an order to go.

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance is street level which makes it easy to pick up your order in a wheelchair.“

“really like the donuts, especially at this café. The dough is just right, with a rich flavor and an extraordinary shape that makes it easy to eat. It's also very pleasant to sit outside and have a coffee. The decor is all pink and very pleasant, and the staff greets you with a smile. I highly recommend it.“

“Good jasmine milk tea (I usually get 50% sweetness).
5 stars for friendly service and clear communication yesterday and for having bathrooms available; it's a pet peeve of mine how many tea places don't have bathrooms for customers.“

“It was great! Clean, cute, great service, and most importantly tasty boba! I was able to adjust the drink to my liking—including sugar level— and I feel like every detail was considered from presentation to menu. I think it’s cool that San Carlos got a swanky new addition to their food and dining scene with Bober. I’ll definitely be going back with friends.“

“Favorite boba spot!! My go to drink is the Grass Jelly Almond Latte with mochi cake. Yifang is the only boba place with this type of traditional drink and it’s awesome. Tried some of the other drinks like the Yifang Fruit Tea and that was good too, had a lot of fruit and quite refreshing. Would def recommend to anyone looking for traditional Taiwanese drinks/smoothies!“

“great hours
sometimes long lines
makes trying
to grab and go from
daily specials pre made
stored in fridge
behind crash wrap counter
a slow process.
still worth it only other stores open after 9 p.m.
in that shopping veneer are cvs next door and Safeway further on other side.“

“I tried the signature "Yifang Fruit Tea" with 30% sweetness as they recommend though I took no-ice instead of less-ice. The tea itself tastes fruity, not too sweet and overall well balanced. The bountiful passion fruit seeds are a great touch. The fruit slices float above it all but I'm not sure if they have a real effect. I do really like this tea but I also have to say I prefer the moomo (Sunnyvale) fruit drink because it has more of a diverse set of fruit and bits in it. Still this is top notch and worth the 5⭐. I'll try more from the menu when I'm in the area.“

“I love the passion fruit tea! You have to try it!!!!“

“炸物、餐點都很有水準，非常有台灣味！極力推薦“

“Yummy delicious and super cool 😎“

“I absolutely love this Happy Lemon location! The staff are always friendly, efficient, and great at making the perfect drink. The drinks are delicious and refreshing every time I visit, especially the classic Lemon Green Tea and their signature Salted Cheese drinks which are so unique and flavorful! The store is clean, organized, and has a welcoming vibe. I appreciate how customizable the drinks are and how you can adjust sweetness and toppings to suit your taste perfectly. This Happy Lemon truly sets the bar high for quality and service. Highly recommend!“

“Pretty cool little spot for a quick Tea!!! Ice area etc.“

“Great food and drink♥️ I love“

“I recommend people to try all drinks their very much delicious every topping is fire I love how they close late at night decent time keep up the good work guys !!!❤️🙏🤩“

“yo comiendo con un servicio para este cliente por sus seguidores y un servicio“

“Like everything else, prices have gone WAY up.
It's almost $12.00 for just the popcorn chicken.
Be warned that the last time I was there, the prices online did not reflect the actual prices.
I also really hope that they fixed the problem with the phone number. I had to Google it to place an order. It was not correct.

The kids behind the counter can not be bothered to take an order or even acknowledge your presence when you walk in.“

“I love brown sugar milk tea“

“Tofu pudding (豆花) was awesome. Fruit tea had fresh strawberry and mango cubes. Ai-yu (愛玉) went well with fruit tea.“

“Their leaf quality is next level. I love the tie guan yin oolong. The boba quality is solid. Staff are friendly. Their matcha latte leaves a lot to be desired. It has an artificially too sweet honey flavor. Can't taste the matcha. It is barely green. Boba bliss has better matcha (Izumi Matcha even better though).“

“Mid Dec2024 Trendy bubble tea or boba store that serves drinks and food as well. Understandably the menu of mixtures is extensive.

Generally caters to young consumers and keeps up to date with the local trends and tastes.

Often a dessert or after meal spot.

Expect US size servings.“

“Great vibe for working/studying or gaming if you'd like. The calibear tea is one of the best boba teas I've had. I've seen a lot of people taking dates here on the later hours 7pm-10pm or just general chatting. It's a bit hot during the day but cools off during the evening. The place is also family owned, the owners children help run the place or actively studying on one of the computers. Overall very nice place and one of my favorite to go to!“

“太棒了，肉品沒吃多少，倒是吃了好幾磅的櫻桃🍒“

“Egg coffee 10/10 , must try!“

“A few weeks ago I discovered the restaurant. I really liked the food, the tacos and their sauce. I have visited it more than three times
I give it an A+. It is a family restaurant. A week ago I left my wallet, I called and they returned it to me, I am very grateful.“

“Amazing tea with great variety! Accidentally stumbled across this place, have returned since, and am never disappointed! The milk tea boba is great, but the Super Fruit green tea with passion fruit popping boba is next level. The fresh fruit slices mixed in with the tea are a refreshing surprise and the fruit is always ripe and delicious. I tried the grapefruit fruit tea today as well which hit the spot! Would definitely recommend checking out Tea Juice!“

“Fresh and inventive boba teas. They seem to be at least moderately busy (sometimes very busy) most of the time, so you may want to order online on your way there. There's no indoor seating, but there are a couple of tables out front. Popular with students from the nearby Middle and High schools.“

“me encanta esta muy buena y no tardan tanto con tu orden...ilove💕“

“T4 is fine. It’s your basic boba. All the ingredients are there. It does the job. It’s close to Stanford. It’s available on door dash. The tea isn’t great. The ingredients are paint by numbers. The pearls are mid. But in a pinch, it absolutely does the job it needs to do. You can do better but you can also do w-a-y worse.“

“Queen Boba is a fantastic boba shop! My favorites are the green and black teas with 1/4 sugar and 1/2 ice, and it has to be a large with two orders of large tapioca. Every time we get boba from here, it's cooked to perfection. We've also tried some small bites like the calamari and the popcorn chicken, which always come out piping hot. They also let you choose your spice level; I'm a wimp, so mild to medium for me, but the flavor is solid. If you're unsure how to use the touch screen, you can order from the menu on the wall while talking to the server. However, the best experience is using the touch screen to order and pay; it's quick and convenient. Looking forward to my next Queen Boba order!“
