50 Best Bubble Tea near Pico Rivera

“This is the place you want to go to if you want a boba. There’s So many options. Although, there is many options , I always get the same thing lol. I’ve been going there since 2017!
All the girls that work there are AMAZING and lovely !!! Alyssa is sincerely the best! As soon as she sees me walk in , she knows my order and is already making my order lol. The other girls know what I like as well lol. Now for the two guys that work there , they are honestly rude from time to time ,not always friendly nor welcoming. I feel a huge tension when they are there. The girls are what makes that place feel warm and nice and enjoyable. They deserve extra tips and a raise! 🖤🫶🏼🖤“

“I love this place! I always get their banana matcha and it always hits! I’ve been going here for about 4 months and throughout these 4 months they have been consistently giving great service and great matcha. I try different matcha spots but I always end up back here because no other place beats it. I wish more people knew about this place because it genuinely needs the recognition it deserves!“

“As someone who likes creative and colorful drinks I can say that It’s Boba Time
doesn’t disappoint. Every once and a while I like to get boba with my friends or
usually by myself after a walk around the town center so I usually go to It’s Boba Time
because they have one of my favorite drinks there the galaxy iced tea. The galaxy
iced tea is a really colorful iced tea made with butterfly pea tea, strawberry
lemonade, and small star-shaped mango jelly which helps give off the galaxy vibes.
They also have the sunset iced tea which looks similar to the galaxy iced tea but has
a different yet tasty flavor. The sunset iced tea contains butterfly pea tea, hibiscus
tea, and passion fruit juice. These two drinks are just a few of all the delicious and
beautiful drinks that It’s Boba Time has. I guarantee it’s definitely worth checking out.“

“Tropical fruit tea was BomB! Lots of fruit, 75% is perfect, and my stomach didnt feel bloated! The male cashier was very nice and the woman who made my drink hooked it up with more toppings inside (which was a little too much bc i couldn't suck up fruit with the juice bc it was too crowded in the cup), but good service, humble workers and a good first impression so I will def be back for more! 😋. Oh its a plus if you like anime. They have mini gatherings. I taped a few of their future events.“

“Very cute shop with pleasant ambiance and a lot of seating. The staff was super helpful going over the menu items. A highlight for me was the mini taiyaki filled with vanilla cream (served piping hot). The boba pearls were fresh and chewy too.“

“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.“

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

“Loved the homemade ice cream and cookies! The attendant was super sweet as well. Highly recommend this place.“

“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.“

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

“Hey I went here the other day with my nina and they happily swapped out my Boba for a better one that I had wished I chose before buying the one I already had. You dont get that type of customer service without getting charged again, nice little place to go and enjoy some bobas !“

“In a popular plaza with various well known shops, 7 Miles Tea Lab is in the pack of it. Free parking is always nice here, with a cute interior, 7 Miles has one of the cutest cup designs I've seen so far. There's a self order kiosk which is very nice to speed up the ordering process.

Love that they have plentiful of variety and some creative drinks as well that's rare to find in other boba shops.

Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea
As expected, osmanthus is over the top on this drink which is great for a refreshing drink. I added Agar boba which adds to the taste but it's not needed. Overall a great drink, very well made and not too sweet with 50% sugar adjustment.

Cookie Milk Tea
My wife ordered this drink and this was a pretty standout drink. The cookie crumbs is a nice touch to it. Each sip had some of the crumbs which added to the experience. Not very sweet as well, a nice simple drink similar to Oreo milk tea.

Overall, a very nice boba shop with cute design, cute cups, and decent drinks. Love the cute + simplicity combo, definitely checking this spot out whenever in the area again.“

“I love their bobas. I haven't tried their foods but it does look delicious, their food menu keeps growing, im not mad at that :)
The only thing i hate about this place is that for some reason, it ALWAYS stinks bad!!! This place must have rotten pipes or a rotten mop !!! This place needs to be scrubbed down or knock down the store“

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

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

“Really nice service and very yummy boba! We ordered the strawberry matcha and butterfly coconut and they both were delicious. I needed mine without dairy but forgot to ask, she graciously offered to remake it for me at no extra charge. Thank you!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“Located inside LAX-C's plaza is ChaTraMue. It's the quintessential Thai tea joint from Thailand. It was established in 1945 and has been trusted for over 80 years.

They have a variety drinks, but they're famous for the very popular Thai iced tea. I opted for the Thai Tea Slushee, my wife the Original Thai Tea and my daughter the Sala Milk.

For the Thai tea, we opted for 70% sweetness and it was still very sweet. We'll have to try the next one down which is 30% next time we're in the area. The Original Thai Tea would've been perfect if it wasn't so sweet and same goes for the slushee. I felt that if it was less sweet, it would be perfect. Ill have to ask if I can bring down the sweetness of the slushee the next time I'm there. As for the Sala Milk, it was a hard no for everyone. I've never had this before - even in Thailand. Unfortunately, my daughter took a sip and was done with it.

Definitely will come back to try other flavors and adjust the sweetness levels of our drinks. Don't forget to grab yourself some tins of tea to take home and make in the comfort of your home!“

“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“

“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.“

“I have one word...tasty!!!“

“We were a family of 5 and we all got a milk tea boba. Everyone loved their drinks and food. The portions were generous and delicious. The beef bologa and orange chicken were so great. I'm so glad to we checked this place out. It was the perfect ending to our vacation.“

“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!!“

“The Earl Grey milk tea with boba is the best!!! 😍“

“Hidden gem, great for lunch and they do catering. I ordered multiple items for catering for a party, and my guest kept telling me how amazing the food was. Three of my guests went to eat at the restaurant the next week and again told me how amazing it was.“

“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.“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“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!“

“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.“

“I randomly stopped here last night, I never noticed place. Thank God, I got a house tea, (bomb)that already set up good vibes for my food. Chicken Chow Mein, and shrimp Fred rice.both good but chow mein was delicious tasted fresh flavorful I really enjoyed it my lil ones loved it. The woman in the counter was excellent she had such a beautiful persona they could have turned me away since it was close to closing , I took it to go. Great customer service I’d return for that alone it feels good spend your money were it’s appreciated.“

“The 3 of us came here for lunch. We always order the Honey Walnut Shrimp Burger which is delicious (5/5). The Taro Sweet Milk is good (4/5) and the Black Sesame Matcha is just average (3/5). It could get busy during lunch rush hour, kitty might take 10-15 minutes you wait for your burger, although the drinks are much faster. The ambiance is airy with high ceiling, the Chinese decor is quite interesting.“

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

“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!“

“If you're looking for boba in Huntington Park, I highly recommend this place. The drinks are consistently great, and the service is incredibly friendly. The staff were so kind that it made me want to come back again. Whenever I'm in Huntington Park, this will definitely be my go to spot for boba!“

“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.“

“ICI Tea Drinks is a unique drinks shop, mostly containing fruit type drinks, very popular especially on hotter days.

They also have milk tea options but not as much variety as their signature fruit drinks. Ordering here is pretty simple, either on a self ordering kiosks or with a cashier.

Parking here can be tough because of a shared plaza with plentiful of popular shops, street parking is accessible and an underground parking lot as well, all free parking.

Lot the variety of options here, it's pretty much endless. As stated, ICI Tea is majority fruit teas and my wife and I decided on two drinks.

1. Quarter Pound Mango ($7.50)
Great drink option, if you like mango sago drinks, this is very similar, maybe even better. Mangoes were fresh and this drink is definitely a recommendation on my end. Super refreshing and just can't go wrong with the drink

2. Cheesy Watermelon Smoothie ($7.60)
Usually I don't put cheese atop of my drinks, but I wanted to try it to see how I would feel about it, this drinks is definitely a surprise to me. The drink itself is just a watermelon juice drink with cheese. Mixes pretty well with the watermelon, although you don't really taste the cheese mix until later (or swirl it a good amount.) I would recommend this drink if you're feeling creative, very delicious.

Overall, a wonderful drinks shop, it's a nice change of pace from my usual milk tea based drinks and ICI Tea didn't disappoint at all. Might be one of my favorite drinks shops around with their high quality drinks, fresh fruits, and fast service. Highly recommend joining their points program if you visit often.“

“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.“

“it was my first time & it was amazing“

“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 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!“

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

“This is my favorite go-to boba spot. The owner is very friendly, and most importantly, the boba is always fresh because it’s carefully managed by the owner. They’re generous with the fruit, and you can really feel their genuine passion for boba.
I’ve moved to a different area so I can’t come as often, but whenever I’m nearby, this is always a place I make sure to stop by.“

“I’ve been here a couple times and Jason is a real stand up guy who is very friendly and courteous. His shop is clean and he’s got tons of choices! It takes awhile just to figure out what you want out of all the choices. The location is in a shopping center I go to for other things so it is in a convenient location for me. Will keep coming!“

“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.“

“butter cookie coffee 👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀“

“Se ve muy limpio y el personal amable“

“Got a large Thai Tea during happy hour which was nice. Perfect amount of sweetness for me. It was nice, clean, fast service. The stacked bench seating with no tables was weird. Also no ranch with my store bought popcorn chicken was also not what Im used to but overall was still a nice place, I would go again and would recommend.“

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