50 Best Bubble Tea near Millbrae

“The tea here is good compared to other tea shops in the area. The milk and sugar doesn't overwhelm the tea. The shop is decorated with anime figures but there's no seating in the shop. Ordering is through just 1 kiosk, but our tea order of 4 was prepared in a timely manner. Parking was not a problem on a Tuesday afternoon.“

“TeaHut in Millbrae is great for fresh, real fruit tea. The Mango Pomelo Sago is a must-try—perfectly sweet with real ingredients. The Full Cup of Strawberries & Black Grapes is refreshing, with whole, in-season grapes. Cozy spot, and parking is convenient too!“

“Grapeholic is truly hidden gem located in Millbrae's Social Eatery food hall. Grapeholic, as it's name suggests, offers grape-focused tea drinks. As part of Social Eatery, patrons can take a seat within the food hall, place their orders on the provided tablet, and a staff member will bring the food an beverages straight to your table.

Looking for something to go with our meal, we decided to try the (1) cotton candy grape slush, and the (2) grape and lemon tea. The cotton candy grape slush was amazing - true to it's name it captured the cotton candy grape flavor in a delicious slush form that was both sweet and refreshing. The grape and lemon tea was also good; however, the lemon flavor was a bit overpowering and made it difficult to truly enjoy the grape that was in the drink. If you want grape to be the star of the show, then I'd recommend getting one of their grape-centered drinks instead.

Whenever I think of grape, my mind instantly goes to those sickly sweet yet bitter cold syrups of my childhood and the inner child in me still shivers at the thought of drinking those down. With that in mind, grape is not usually a flavor that I find myself partial to; however, Grapeholic might just make me change my mind. Their grape drinks were impeccable flavor-wise - imagine biting into a sweet bunch of grapes, and Grapeholic has essentially captured that taste and feeling into a drink!

If you're ever in the Millbrae area and want a one-stop shop for all your dining and beverage needs, then Social Eatery is definitely the place to go and be sure to enjoy Grapeholic while you're at it!“

“I recently visited this place and had an amazing experience! They’ve changed the owner and upgraded the menu. It definitely deserves a five-star review. The food quality is exceptional, especially the bubble waffle-my fav item! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful~ they were promoting new product and offered me a few samples to try. The boba is simply amazing I can't get enough of their fruity matcha—it's a perfect blend of flavors that I highly recommend trying“

“Great variety of any drinks.“

“Olivia’s Tanghulu is available there! These candied fruits are such a fun and nostalgic treat! So crunchy and delicious! They are the perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and they bring back childhood memories with every bite. Highly recommend grabbing some when you stop by! Such a unique and tasty find! Go early before they sell out!“

“Drive by many times and thought that I wouldn't like something like a yogurt drink. Turned out it was very good. Delicious! Been there twice..... But the young ladies there are a little bit...... Not friendly!!
But worth trying they're drinks!“

“If u like not so sweet desserts and drinks, this is the place to be. We ordered the ube, pandon, and matcha waffles. You can really taste the tea in the matcha. All were very good and light in sweetness. I had a fruit addict drink. Very refreshing. Cute little atmosphere, friendly customer service, the parking is a bit tight. I've gone in there twice. Very low key area.“

“Love this location when I feel like having some clay pot dish. Normally we come here and we ordered various dishes and we share among our group. What honey liked the most about there’s clay pot dishes were the crunchy bottom of the rice. Nice and crispy and crunchy. We order: clay pot Lap Mei (a little bit fatty, clay pot Chicken & Mushroom (my favorite), clay pot Grilled Unagi ( my favorite), clay pot Chicken feet and Pork Ribs ( my husband favorite), clay pot Pork Patty ( not bad) and Beef Stew Noodles with wide noodles and ramen noodles ( yummy). We have also tried their Milk Tea Taro Milk( too thick for me) and taro and boba ( wasn’t as thick). Would we go back.. We have been back numerous times already. 😂“

“Their black sesame really tastes like black sesame. My friend got the hot and i got the cold bc we complement each other so well. We’re like bros for life heck yeah. Would go again, not for the drinks but to show how close our friendship bond is. 🤝“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“My favorite tea spot in the area by far. Since discovering it a year ago I have not tried anything else. Their jasmine tea is my go to. Mango jasmine or jasmine milk tea. Strawberry matcha is also pretty good. I do 50% sweet on the mango one and 75% on the other two. Their boba is always so good. Only thing I wish is that there was someone to talk to when ordering so you could bring reusable cups.“

“Drinks were tasty, good place for order pick up. The front staff is not welcoming. The owner or male cashier was talking to a woman for a while. He ignored most of his customers. Even though there is a kiosk for ordering, the place was slow, the man kept ignoring other customers that walked in.“

“I'm a mystery shopper for boba tea. This tea place is one of the best in the bay area. Itea, Purple Kow, Tea Era, Boba Lab are also quite good.“

“Mango juice tastes so good! Eggettes so soft!“

“Super fast service from the Master boba technician and awesome crew ❤️❤️❤️“

“I LOVE this place! Its so fast so much stuff to choose and have plenty of styles of tea and foods!“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

“Friendly staff and yummy tea. Thank you“

“Yummy 😋 and good place! And friendly staff“

“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 ?“

“Enjoying my boba during this hot day👍“

“My daughter looked up BTSeveents and since we were going to be I SF, we decided to have a sweet treat there. I got the lemon dragon fruit with 25%sweetened and 75%ice and it was perfect on these rare warm SF day.“

“Tpumps is a great place to get boba at a decent price. Not too long ago, they raised their prices by 50 cents, which is disappointing but understandable. My go-to at Tpumps is the blackberry peach black tea with boba, and it always hits the spot. The pearl-tea ratio isn't the best, but the drink is still very worth it. I can appreciate the amount of customization this boba place offers, from the long list of flavors, to the many topping choices, to the amounts of sweetness and ice you can request, to the option to add milk. That's what makes it different from the rest. The staff at Burlingame are particularly excellent. A customer once mistook my order for their own and left, and the employees quickly noticed and remade my drink. Overall, a fine boba place, 4/5.“

“Walked in here today to grab a boba drink with my daughter. I ordered a matcha mango latte with boba and daughter got a classic milk tea with boba. We love our drinks. staff was super friendly and asked for feedbacks or need to adjust the drink for us or not.“

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

“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“

“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.“

“Could not be more appreciative of their excellent customer service. I dropped a drink I ordered inside their store on the floor, not only did they clean it up, but also made a new one for me. I am so grateful! The drink is also very delicious, they put a lot of efforts in making it just right.“

“NEW in the Highlands: At last, our own boba tea joint and it’s awesome! RareTea took over the Hawaiian BBQ space, and it’s serving up Okinawa and Jasmine milk teas every bit as good as it is back in Taiwan 🇹🇼! Props to the owners braving COVID shutdown and having a go at their small business — from the looks on the little kids’ faces, we are glad and we will be back, often! 🥤 🌞 🇹🇼“

“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.“

“Refreshing place 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“We go there every week and have gone there since 2012 and it is always delicious. The teriyaki chicken musubi is amazing and the winter melon milk tea is super high quality and I get it every week. Everything about this place is perfect don’t listen to the bad reviews“

“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!“

“I stumbled upon this place after stopping by Salt n Straw and wow do I feel like I’ve found my new hidden gem! With the vast but not too overwhelming menu options, they have alcoholic boba drinks. It’s about time we have a boba shop that serves alcohol in the Bay Area! The service was also amazing. Alongside the owner, Tony, he has staffed his team with friendly and efficient workers. My drink was ready shortly after I ordered. I barely had time to take a seat and not to mention it tasted great. You can tell Tony really cares about his business and making sure every customer is taken care of. Definitely check this place out if you’re ever in the Burlingame area!“

“Trumps . Where do I begin, the great customer Service, Delicous samples, great options, and tasty drinks. I went here yesterday at around 1:50ish, the samples were very good. The worker that took are order was very nice and chill, it only took 5 minutes to get our drinks. I recommend coming here“

“太棒了，肉品沒吃多少，倒是吃了好幾磅的櫻桃🍒“

“Good spot, and glad it's open late. The mayo for the popcorn chicken sits on the counter for an unguessably long time... and the floors back by the bathroom could use two power-washings, but I haven't gotten sick yet and it's a cozy spot open late... so that works for me.“

“I ordered the Omnipork Spam & Vegan Egg Garlic Fried Rice Plate. It comes with rice and the spam and folded vegan egg (I believe it's Just Egg) seperate. It's made to order so expect to wait a bit longer for it compared to the dishes on their storefront menu. They even have vegan bubble tea! Both were great to bring on the plane when I know there's not in plane options.“

“customer service is beyond amazing. fast and quick. owners are very friendly and sweet.“

“I've been taking my family here for just a few months and we're always happy with our overall experience. The staff is extremely kind and patient. The food and drinks are excellent and consistent. There are so many choices in our area but we've finally found our spot for great refreshments.“

“I have been here a handful of times, and usually my pit stop for something quick when I am in the area. This location is basically a hole in the mall where you might drive past and not even notice there is a Quickly there. The shop is compact where it is strictly to go only, you can either order from the kiosk or a staff can help you at the counter. Their menu consists of milk tea, slushies, specialty drinks, snacks, etc. The staffs here are well trained and quick with orders. I typically get a milk tea and a popcorn chicken when I make my visits. I recommend this place to all boba enthusiasts, if you are on a limited time or if you just want something quick. I definitely will be back to tryout the other delicious options they have to offer.“

“Very friendly and nice the guy in the front.Cozy place, my kids and I love the drinks.I do recommended this place.

Kid-friendliness: The guy he always spread one drink for my to kids because my little one likes the smoothie but he never finish a big one, nice of him to that for my kids.“

“Boba is not the most amazing for sure, but for the price pretty good. Decent drinks nothing amazing but very no frills. Got milk tea and honey dew green tea. Also for 9$ they gave huge amount of popcorn chicken which was pretty good. It was hot fresh and crunchy and “

“I love going to Happy Lemon🍋 just for my favorite drink! I always go for the Green Milk tea + boba 🧋
Not only their drinks are phenomenal, their waffles are a must have too! Crispy on the edges soft every bite🥹!!! My favorite waffle would definitely be their Oreo🤩
In addition, all the staffs there are super friendly and nice! So definitely a place to go to when nearby!“

“Yum… Can’t get enough of P-Town Coffee n Tea.“

“I ordered the osmanthus milk tea at the kiosk, but I didn’t pay attention and ordered the wrong one, osmanthus rice milk tea instead.Luckily, the employee helped me did the refund and reorder the osmanthus milk tea. I am really appreciate it. And, it tasted so good!

Parking: It’s inside the plaza. So parking is always available.“

“Tea World is my favorite boba shop in Pacifica.“

“Located in the Ingleside neighborhood, Purtea offers a variety of tea drinks along with snacks to go with your drink. Upon entering the tea shop, patrons are greeted with a cute floral-themed interior. You can order via their kiosk or in-person with the cashier.

We decided to go with their classic milk tea and orange green tea. The classic milk tea was a true representation of milk tea, in which the sweetness and milk was not too overpowering and the tea in the drink still shined through. If you're read any of my reviews before, you know I love my fruit teas, and orange green tea is one of my absolute favorites. The orange green tea from Purtea does not disappoint and I would go back to order it again without a doubt. While I did not sample any of their appetizers and snacks this time around, I'll be sure to do so next time if I'm looking for a bite to eat.

If you're in the Ingleside - Ocean Avenue area and find yourself craving tea drinks or snacks, then Purtea is the pur-fect spot for you!“

“Best tuna melt I ever had. Thank you so much. I enjoyed my lunch.“
