50 Best Bubble Tea near Monrovia

“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.“

“Not really a Boba fanatic but came here with some friends and had some refreshing and ultra delicious Taro Tea with Boba. It was so chilled and yummy that I will definitely come back as well as on Tuesdays as they have some size-up deal. They make their own Boba! Quality and taste is tops🏅🏅🏅“

“Tried this place for the first time since I was in the area. Got a brown sugar milk tea with boba. The tea was good and not too sweet. Boba was nice and chewy. I like that I was able to order online and just pick it up. Would come back here again!“

“Great environment, staff and drinks, and they help support local small businesses. Great place to be!“

“Stop the car.....this is a place you can't afford to pass by. The quality of the Boba is fantastic & yummy. The ambiance is so very quaint. The owner Kelli is very friendly. So do yourself a big favor and do not miss this place. Rene B“

“Surprisingly spacious inside! They do have a rear lot, but street parking is probably your best bet. It’s definitely more of a social hangout than a quiet study spot, but the layout works well. Despite the crowd, service was efficient, I had my two drinks in less than 10 minutes. The peach oolong was a pleasant surprise and better than expected.“

“Been here a few times and always enjoyed it. They have board games that you can play and the employee(s) are very nice and welcoming. Especially love their consistency of the boba, something I notice that some places make them way too squishy and basically mush, but here theyre perfect and chewy. Very consistent quality of drinks aswell. Love it here 💖“

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

“High quality milk green tea with one of the freshest bobas I’ve tasted in a while.
Most importantly, great value for this quality! #bangforyourbuck

Environment & vibe fun, cozy, & positive! Staff are friendly, offer free samples; I loved it all.“

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

“Awesome drinks.. everyone must try“

“Happily stumbled across this cozy boba shop on accident. The staff will treat you very friendly and you’ll receive a high quality drink. I’m just not sure if it’s always that cold in there or what the purpose of that would be, but it was definitely noticeable during my brief visit“

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

“Stopped by because they were on the SGV passport and got a watermelon drink and milk tea. Unfortunately no regular boba at opening, but they did have the crystal boba as substitute. I really liked the watermelon one as it was quite refreshing on a hot day and even had some fresh mint in it. The milk tea was enjoyable too. Prices are decent and the staff was friendly, so I'd come back again“

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

“With plenty of bakeries around SGV, I had to try Oh My Pan as I've heard some good qualities about their shop. Parking here is small to moderate as it's shared with other shops. Pretty small lot but there's underground as well, could be a bit compact but street parking is also accessible.

At first glance, this is a pretty sizeable bakery. A decent amount of tables as well since it's a cafe combo. Cakes, bread, drinks are all accessible and the drinks are fairly good for the cheaper price compared to the standard boba shops.

Breads here are restocked fairly often and from the baskets, there's plenty of unique options of breads that aren't seen in other bakeries. One that caught my eye was the boba bread and the matcha swirl bread. Both are fairly delicious but I would say it's a acquired taste. Definitely a try it once type of bread and have a verdict afterwards.

My partner and ordered a couple of the breads to try which include the signature pineapple breads, matcha, sausages, and some sweeter bread as well. All were pretty soft, fresh, and cheaper compared to other bakeries. We also ordered two drinks, the Orchid Milk Tea & the Light Oolong Milk Tea.
Both were pretty refreshing but nothing over the top as it's cheaper than the usual shops.

Overall, a nice spacious bakery/cafe combo that's good for doing some work, a small bite, or drinks for affordable price. They also have cakes so that's definitely an option whenever I have a birthday to consider.“

“Ever since this Tea Spots (Azusa/Amar) opened my 2 daughters and I have been enjoying everything this establishment has to offer. I would suggest that most people if not all should try one time n u 2 would be hooked too. Their Milk Tea with black boba / fresh fruit smoothies, ices with fruit and can’t forget their delicious menu. They have healthy food and fried food like baked sweet potatoes fries and dinner plates also ramen bowls. They have 5$ 7$ n 9$ individual plates that are delicious. We have had most of their food and it has all been very umpslish. Try it yourself u will not be disappointed. EA“

“everything made to order! i don’t mind waiting 15 min to get something absolutely delicious!!!

i recommend the meat pan fried pancakes the most :-)) everything is so affordable n homemade idk how they stay in business. i think their steam bao is okay tbh. beef noodle soup very good just add some chili oil makes it much better.

soy milk is very smooth and the millet porridge very homey. I will definitely come back and bring more friends!!“

“I had a Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea with no ice and level 1 (of 5) sweetness. I really enjoy freshly brewed milk tea (freshly brewed after order is placed) compared to milk tea prepared with tea that was brewed well in advance, had been sitting on the shelf for who knows how long, and used only after the order is placed. I definitely recommend to try their boba tea.“

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

“And they were having a promotion where if I leave a review, I get a free drink so I’m grateful for that. The tea was good. There was only a little bit of miscommunication with customizing a drink and they make you do the review before they give you the drink so other than that I will definitely come back.“

“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!!“

“My friend recommend this place and I gotta say, it was one of the best drink places I’ve been so far. It has great boba tea and has awesome customer service. It’s great on a hot day with the mild air conditioning and cold drinks. Would 100% recommend this place.“

“Love this place! Highly recommended :)“

“✨ Location
This fairly new boba spot is located in West Covina, right on the corner of Glendora Ave and E Service Ave. I believe it opened around two years ago, so it still feels pretty fresh and new to the area.

🅿️ Parking
Parking was pretty convenient. There is street parking available, and there is also a small parking lot in the back for the building’s tenants.

🏠 Interior / Atmosphere
The shop itself looks bright, clean, and inviting. It has big shop signs, sofas, and a few cute spots where you can take pictures. From what I heard, they also host K-pop gatherings from time to time, which gives the place a fun and unique vibe.

🙋 Service
The staff were friendly, interactive, and easy to talk to. They answered my questions with helpful information and made the experience feel welcoming.

🧋 Drinks
I ordered the Guanyin milk tea, which was recommended to me after I mentioned that I prefer a stronger tea flavor. It was a good recommendation, and I enjoyed that the tea taste came through well. Even though I ordered 100% sugar, the drink did not taste overly sweet, which I appreciated.

⭐ Overall
Overall, I had a good experience here. I would personally rate this place around a 4.3 to 4.7, but because the staff were so interactive and welcoming with customers, I would give them a 5. Keep it up!!“

“Taiwanese cafe in Alhambra. 2hr shaded parking within the building (unsure if it's tracked). Great wifing/study or working on laptop cafe during the day! 3 Wide Tables with outlet/plug access nearby. 1 restroom, key needed. Staff is nice. AC is not working as well when we visited, they had a fan. Most ppl seem to grab takeout on a Saturday noon to late afternoon.

$3 Wheelcake. Batter is diary free. Red bean is the only dairy free one. Not bad.

Braised Pork Minced Meat Rice in a Cup. Hefty and kind carboload. But taste is decent. For a cafe, it's a quick cheap heft meal while wifing (working on the laptop here).

$14 Rice plates like popcorn chicken, pork chop, pork belly, etc. Popcorn chicken was decent too. It came with rice, veggies (stir fry cabbage), spicy seaweed tofu soup“

“Neighbors Tea House offers the most exception beverages and sweet treats, like their Smashed Avocado and Durian and soy pudding. I’m still making my way through their menu but there hasn’t been anything I’ve ordered that I didn’t wish I ordered a large of. Their team is exceptional, especially during COVID. You can order online to expedite your experience. Be sure to say hi to Hailey, the owner, who always comes up with these amazing beverages. Will definitely be back!“

“Stopped by a small boba spot in La Puente and it turned out to be a hidden gem. The drinks were fresh, not overly sweet, and the boba had that perfect chewy texture—exactly how it should be.

What really stood out though was the service. The lady who helped us was amazing with my kids—super patient, kind, and made the whole experience even better.

The place itself is simple, clean, and has a chill vibe. Definitely one of those spots you want to come back to. If you’re in La Puente and craving boba, it’s worth checking out and supporting local.“

“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.“

“Great boba chain with consistent drink quality. I visited the store near Lunar new year time and was given red envelopes with mu purchase. I went to pick up my fav drinks with them, which are mango pomelo sago and winter melon milk tea with grass jelly!“

“This is such a great drink/dessert spot! The drinks here are unique and have great flavors with real fruit, taro, yucca, or special seasonal fruit. We loved the papaya coconut slushy with jelly and fresh papaya. The Dubai cracking chocolate with the pistachio slush is so fun to crack and a perfect sweet treat. The mango pomelo sago was fruity and creamy and taro mochi milk tea had good tea flavor. The homemade mashed taro and taro balls and popcorn chicken remind of Taiwan. They have plenty of seating and character friends too!“

“The Spring Oolong Tea Milk Tea was perfect for me with its sugar adjustment. I can taste the actual tea; no powder involved. The shop itself is small and very cute. Support your local businesses! 10/10 would recommend to a friend! The tea is good.“

“They make the best tea ever! Easy parking and friendly staff!“

“Heard good things about their drinks so finally tried it while I was in the area. I ordered through the Hungry Panda app since they had a coupon that made it cheaper or else it would be kind of pricey. I ordered the Cheesy Mango Smoothie with less sweet. They have a small storefront with only two or three tables so it's more of a grab and go boba store.

The drink was ready in around 5 minutes and it was super easy to pick up. I really liked the drink. The blended mango smoothie tasted very fresh and not artificial. And the taste of mango and cheese foam goes so well together. I can see why cheese foam is so popular with fruit smoothies.

I will be back again to try their other fruit drinks!“

“The uncaffeinated toasted grain milk tea was phenomenal. Roasted flavor that’s not too deep and pairs well with nunumochi.

I was a bit shocked that the mochi wasn’t solid gel-like but the manager kindly explained that they don’t use preservatives so it’s more of a hybrid between liquid and gel. Whatever it is, I love it. I forgot to mix it so it got a bit sweet towards the end, but will definitely order this again and mix next time!“

“Literally the best matcha I have had in a long while. The ingredients never upset my stomach and the boba is never chewy, always perfect. The matcha is a must have. The downsides are that this place is near a HS and they close pretty early.“

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

“Absolutely delicious!! Incredibly fresh and tasty. I got the Friends Bowl with Blue Majik base and added peanut butter and it was heaven on a spoon. I also got the Chia Parfait for the next day and that was perfect too. I’m only sad I didn’t find this place sooner!!“

“Really good drinks! Super fresh and well-balanced, not too sweet and not watered down. The tea flavor is strong and high quality.

Highly recommend the black tea ice cream — really fragrant and not too sweet. Definitely coming back again.“

“The best popcorn chicken in this area and the best boba milk tea for a decent price. It has been my regular over 10 years!! And shout out to shifu and fangjie(the owners) thank you for serving the neighborhood for so long and the best food as always.“

“The store is bright and fun. Staffs are young with joyful smile. Of course the drinks are great which bring the happy day.“

“best chow mein ive ever have and good service 👍 10/10“

“Whenever I'm in Arcadia, BenGong is one of my go to spots. Their menu is quite extensive and drinks never disappoint.

Parking is plentiful and free which is a nice plus.
Interior is very cute, good amount of tables as I see plenty of people sit and do work on their laptops here. To the right is a wishing tree that's decorated and perfect for photos. There's also a self ordering kiosk which is great when the shop gets busy.

The menu itself is very extensive and very unique. Ranging from brown sugar specials which is one of their signatures to one of my personal favorites, the sparkling series. They also have Yakult, cheese, and fruit series to order. Staff is friendly and quick as our drinks came out withing 5 minutes.
(Ordered on this specific occasion)

-- Peach Oolong Milk Tea ($6.00) -
Very refreshing drink, peach doesn't overpower the drink as a whole and is just a perfect drink overall. Came in their deco cups which was a plus. Mixed very well with the Oolong Milk Tea, I would recommend this drink for anyone that has trouble deciding what to get. 10/10

-- Strawberry Peach Sparkling Tea ($6.25) --
I was pretty interested in the sparkling series and this one caught my eye the most. It's pretty much as expected, sparkling tea. Similar to a soda feeling, this was a solid refresher on a warm day. Although the taste kind of went away after about an hour, it was still a decent drink to try. Definitely checking the other sparkling drinks out next time I visit. 8/10

One underrated thing about this shop is their different type of cups. Ranging from the standard size cups, to their round cups and their decorated cups. Many drinks come in the smaller round cups so watch out for that if you're expecting a standard cup. Regardless, the cups are well made and super cute and sturdy.

Overall, wonderful shop with cute designs, friendly staff, and high quality drinks. You can't really go wrong with any drink here as they're all super flavorful. Highly recommend giving BenGongs a visit.“

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

“delicious food, great customer service, drinks are also great“

“This Sunright location has been a solid spot in my boba rotation for years. It's quite a small shop with no seating, just a place to order and go. They have two self ordering kiosks at the back which is great especially when it's busy. However, I'd always prefer to order online anyways to remove any wait time at all.

Interior is pretty clean and staff is pretty quick, parking is plentiful, street parking and parking lot in the back.

My go to drinks here is always the oreo brulee and the white peach milk teas. Both are very refreshing and always delciious regardless of weather. It can get a bit sweat for the oreo brulee but a sugar adjustment does the trick. I like that their cups are one of the more higher quality feel than other shops. Simple design yet modern and classic at the same time. The bottom is sturdy but has a round outer layer, very unique as other shops don't have that style.

Overall, great drinks, extensive menu, and options for all kinds of tea lovers. They have other locations as well but this location is one that's been around for a long time, very consistent for the most part. Keep a look out for events they do on social media and also recommend downloading the Toast app to collect points.“

“A new spot in the core of SGV and it's right next to the 99 Ranch Market. Already packed with plenty of other popular tea shops in the same plaza, Guiji Tea takes it to another level. Interior is full of their green/matcha theme. It's very clean and very minimalistic.

A huge plus for having self ordering kiosk machines and a huge space for people to sit down after ordering their drinks. My wife and I visited for one of their promotions for a free sticker set, which included 3 featured drinks BOGO. My personal favorite is the pu-erh milk tea碎銀普洱奶茶. Very refreshing and light. Probably one of the more satisfying drinks to sip on during a hot day. Very much worth it!

Underrated part are their cups. Non spillable, simple design but has 2 variations to differentiate between the same drink. Cute and simple design but unique as well, very easy to hold.

Overall, a great tea shop with friendly and quick staff, definitely coming back more to try their other drinks. I have my eyes on their peach oolong tea and the King's oolong teas.“

“This place is an alternative for melo melo. Quality wise and taste wise for the jelly are as good as melo melo. One thing I don’t like is the egg waffle because it wasnt not crispy. Other than that, everything’s good. Lots of parking. Service by server are friendly and didn’t take too long to get my food.“

“Nice little spot for boba. Sunright has always been our go to place for boba. I’m just glad that this location has the taro milk tea boba that I’ve been missing since the one by house does not make them anymore. Yummy!!! Craving satisfied!!!“

“Absolutely enjoyed this hidden gem in walnut!!! As someone that loves to support local cafes, I'm super glad I came across Ming Cha. Right when you walk in, you can smell the aroma of the high quality teas they use. Service was great and drinks were very tasty. My personal favorite was the yuzu grapefruit with lychee, and their matcha was not too sweet which I enjoyed! I definitely recommend trying out this boba spot!“
