Tea Restaurants near Milpitas, CA

“Our new happy spot. I have fallen for the Pink Panther. Highly recommended.“

“My favorite milk tea/boba place in the Bay Area. The prices of their drinks haven't risen like other chains, their tea is of high quality, and the staff make drinks in the fastest time.While there isn't much seating room inside, one can quickly order and grab and go. The staff speak Mandarin, Cantonese, and English and one can either name the drinks or provide a number, and they incredibly know which number matches each drink.My favorite drink here is the Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea with pearls; however, any milk teas from here taste delicious!“

“Have been obsessed since trying 3Cat in LA and San Diego.

We got the matcha chestnut, mochi barley burst, and mochi mango. All so good. They use straus milk so it’s naturally creamy and sweet. I got my matcha chestnut with less sugar and ice and it’s perfect.“

“Probably the best tasting tea flavor and also great chewy boba and boba ratio, main ding is just the extra $1-2 dollars per drink than even the next very expensive boba brands (like Molly Tea and Hey Tea). For that price performance it’s hard to justify going to Chi Cha instead of the fleet (Ume, TP) of delicious boba places at a cheaper price point. If they knock a dollar off it would be a 5 star offering!“

“Ten Ren is hands-down my favorite boba spot in the Cupertino area, their tea tastes like tea and the flavors added are not too overwhelming. Staff are friendly and will happily help you with your order if you find there are any problems with your drink. Prices are not bad and they have one of the more generous rewards systems that I've seen. Always happy to come and support this store. I recommend their Honeydew GMT!“

“I’ve been here a number of times and every time I’ve gone I’ve really enjoyed it. Sadly I don’t have any photos on hand but my absolute favorite and number one recommendation is the com tam (broken rice plate) trust me on this!!!! Updated from previous review on 2026-07-01“

“Drink is good allot of choice I recommend“

“I have tried the tea and it's one of the kind, price is so reasonable for a large size, you need to try when you are around the area, words can't describe until you have tasted the tea and judge for yourself.... highly recommended.“

“Got the guava matcha and the peach rice mochi yogurt (seasonal)

The matcha was nice but the recommended 50% sweetness was too sweet.

The yogurt drink was unique. Haven't seen it in other places in the area.“

“I’ve tried matcha spots all over the U.S. bc I travel a lot for work, and somehow I always end up comparing them to Izumi. Honestly, this is still my fave.

The drink I got was super creamy and almost gave matcha tiramisu vibes, but it wasn’t overly sweet or heavy. You could still taste the actual matcha, which I really appreciate because so many places cover it up with milk and sugar. This felt like the perfect mix of Japanese matcha and a fun California café drink.

Also, watching them make it, I could tell it wasn’t a quick or simple order. There were a few steps and layers, and the person making it took their time even though they were busy. Kinda felt bad for ordering something so extra lol, but it came out perfect, so thank you!

Cute spot, really good quality, and still one of the best matcha drinks I’ve had anywhere. Def worth the wait“

“We came at night and glad it’s still open. Drinks were fresh made but I would say if they added a little more cream/cheese, they would tasted much better. If you tried Choo tea, you probably will understand how the creama and ube ratio works, since the price is already more than &10.“

“This is te nicest n clean neat place I ever been ! And the drinks all fresh n taste so good I also order the Bao ribs and it's so yummy I love it! Please go n try this place I'm sure you will love it the service is great n staffs are very friendly with good smile!!😘😘😘“

“Me and my girlfriend just visited the store today on New Years to grab some tea for gifting and to taste, and the service was amazing.

The attendant was incredibly kind and she took out a lot of time to help us decide which teas would be best for our tastes and to sit down to brew and drink some tea with us. She taught us a lot about the plantation that the tea comes from, and the tea itself smelled delicious and was super fragrant. We sampled the green oolong and I took home dragonwell, silver needle, and emerald green teas.

It is very rare these days to walk into a store and meet a worker that has so much passion for tea. If you’re just walking around the store to visit, ask around for some help, I’m sure you’ll find something for yourself. There were also very pretty tea cakes, but I personally don’t drink a lot of pu-erh. I highly recommend this store if you’re visiting the area and want to take home some traditional teas.“

“Tea Top is absolutely my Go-to place when I crave for a good boba milk tea. The location is ideal - close to my work office, easy parking. The service is always great. I want to make a special mention to Jackie their lovely staff. Jackie is simply amazing - joyful, courteous, professional and she makes you want to visit the store again!“

“I went to Tapioca Express in Alhambra on Monday the 15th around noon. I ordered a Thai Tea, which is personally my favorite! I usually order Thai Tea ever where I go because I can't get enough. Haha, The two people that were helping me were Jo and Steve or Steven, I didn't quite hear the other employee name but it's somewhere along those lines. They were super nice! Right when I walked in, I was greeted with "Welcome to Tapioca Express!" It made me feel very welcomed, which is a feeling everybody should feel when they walk into a store. Since I always order Thai Tea, I just wanted to take a look at the menu and see what other options they had. They offered me other drinks but I had to stay with my usual. I liked how they were so patient with me. The Thai Tea tasted amazing! The sugar was just perfect! I will be coming back! Thank you for being patient and having a great customer service!“

“I placed an order (through 3rd party vendors) and got an exceptional customer service experience. Thank you so much! I would definitely recommend Izumi Matcha and will be returning again and again.“

“My wife and I were once just basic milk tea drinkers. We had our standard spot that we used to go to for years. We had friends that used to tell us about getting milk tea with “cheese” in it and we said “that sounds gross”. So one of our friends eventually dragged my wife to Happy Lemon and made her try the milk tea with salted cheese and….our taste buds will never be the same again.

I have now been to this Happy Lemon on multiple occasions. Parking has never been an issue. The people that take the drink orders, and serve the drinks have been consistently nice. The wait time for the drinks have been consistent with other tea places we have been.

My wife and I are now hooked on the Milk Tea with Salted Cheese and Boba Milk Tea with Cream Puff. I even bought some of the Salted Cheese ice cream for our daughters to try. They immediately tasted the cheese flavor and thought it was “yucky”. I was very happy to hear that and I sat back and enjoyed every spoonful.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had such a wonderful experience here! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming and inviting. Not only did we get to enjoy some of the best drinks we’ve had in a long time, but we also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was incredibly kind, hospitable, and passionate about what they do.

We tried a variety of drinks, and each one was fantastic in its own way—refreshing, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients and care. You can really tell that thought and creativity go into each recipe. Every sip left us impressed and already talking about which ones we want to try on our next visit.

What made the experience even more special was the genuine hospitality. The owner took the time to chat with us, share some background on the drinks, and make sure we felt right at home. It’s rare to find that level of connection and pride in both the product and the people who walk through the door, but this place has it in spades.

All in all, this was more than just grabbing a drink—it was an experience. If you’re looking for a spot that serves fantastic drinks and makes you feel like family, this is the place. We’ll definitely be coming back again and again. Highly recommend!“

“We love Brian’s Black tea! And is our to go spot.“

“If you’re looking for a place that serves refreshing, delicious drinks, this spot really stands out. From fruity juices, milkshakes, smoothies, mocktails, to cold coffees, every sip is packed with flavor and freshness. The drinks are perfectly balanced — not too sweet, not too heavy — making them enjoyable for everyone.“

“You can order regular or oreo waffles 🧇! It’s airy and sweet in all the right places. Also their boba is always on point :)“

“long line but was worth it“

“Very good 👍“

“It’s the first time to visit this place. The store looks cool with decoration. Two boys are busy with orders and delivery drinks fast, 5mins only for 2 drinks.
Prices are acceptable. I ordered taro tea $7 with 2 toppings - $0.80/each.
Generally, it’s a good place to sit with chit and chat. If it’s hot over +90degree, you definitely do not forget to come here and get sth to be cooled down.
By the way, there are also connected counters with different kind of sweeties, that you should try. It’s also good to try…“
