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!“

“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!“

“Tasty vietnamese desserts. Staff are knowledgeable about how to make items vegan and many things are automatically vegan. Got the red bean trio which was really tasty, liked the different textures. The pandan jelly was good and not artificial tasting at all. The taro in it added a nice creaminess. Also got the choco banana smoothie with soymilk which was good.“

“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!“

“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. 😂“

“I absolutely loved this place! The milk tea was perfectly balanced — rich and creamy but not overly sweet — and the pearls were soft and chewy with just the right texture. I also tried their desserts, and they were such a pleasant surprise: fresh, beautifully presented, and delicious. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are super friendly and attentive. It’s definitely one of the best spots I’ve been to for milk tea and sweet treats. I’ll be coming back again and again!“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“came from sf for the love and deepspace collab! we got the caleb (apple oolong) and sylus (grapefruit) drinks. caleb tasted kinda sandy but there were five million people in the store, so no worries. both really tasty still. i recommend 100% sweet. good luck to the workers because there were a lot of whiny people you guys are the best 😭👍“

“The drinks are excellent. The food is all decent for the most part, but I absolutely love the fried rice for a comfort meal. It's clear they make it to order because it's so hot and fresh whenever I get it. Add an egg, you won't regret it!“

“Friendly staff and yummy tea. Thank you“

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

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

“Very cute spot, quick service, sweet staff, and great flavor options. They have two ordering screens inside and sweetness level is adjustable now (previously wasn’t based on other reviews). I’ve been there twice and had a lovely experience both times.“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

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

“Yummy 😋 and good place! And friendly staff“

“Tried the coconut grass jelly milk tea with 30% sugar, I don't have sweet teeth so it is still a little bit sweet, otherwise it is pretty good, the toppings are very fresh and you can taste the coconut quite a bit. There are also a lot of seats inside, clean, can hangout with friend there.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“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! 🥤 🌞 🇹🇼“

“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“

“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.“

“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“

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

“太棒了，肉品沒吃多少，倒是吃了好幾磅的櫻桃🍒“

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“Absolutely fantastic. Meat was super soft and flavors were on point. It looks like a small shop but everyone in the restaurant was happy with service, food and music. Chef and other workers were very kind and attentive. Couldn’t recommend this place enough to people coming to San Francisco. Most bang for your buck.“

“Mama Go’s at SFO is such a gem! The Filipino food here is absolutely delicious and comforting, which is rare to find at an airport. I always go for the pancit sotanghon—it’s flavorful, light yet filling, and reminds me of a true homemade dish. The portions are generous, the service is quick (perfect for travelers on the go), and the food quality never disappoints. Definitely my go-to spot whenever I’m flying through San Francisco. Highly recommend if you’re craving something tasty and authentic before your flight!“

“I go here all the time for their claw machines, unique drinks, and MUCH cheaper coconut pudding than places like Tong Sui (hate to start competition but it must be said). The customer service, always very nice ladies working behind the counter! Their drinks I love too, especially the mango coconut pudding drink. Lots of lower reviews of how slow this business runs is not true. Only once did that happen to me in 3 years of going there, and it is important to understand that I always see that workers behind the counter trying to handle it the best they could! They don’t slack off!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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 “

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

“Very nice spot to get a tasty fresh bite. Lots of choices and fast service.“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

“Real tea, real fruit, and fresh milk. Even the $2 boba milk tea specials are high quality. The mango for my mango sago was blended to order. Support this family owned shop, it's a total gem. The two neighboring businesses use powdered non-dairy milk substitute which is not healthy and not as good.“

“I recently tried the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea from Teaspoon SM, and it did not disappoint! The tea was rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed—not too sweet, but just the right balance to highlight the creamy milk flavor. The boba pearls were soft, chewy, and fresh, adding that perfect bit of texture with every sip.“
