50 Best Bubble Tea near Richmond

“Went to satisfy a boba craving.

The service is efficient and friendly.

The store is clean and friendly. I like the color. The menu is not so large as to get lost but large enough you are sure to find something yummy.

After choosing a drink you can choose your sugar and ice levels. I love being able to do this! They offer teas, slushes and yakult. The flavor was good. My only problem is that it took forever to make. It wasn’t even that busy. 😔“

“Hidden gem inside a Chinese market.

We had:
• Vietnamese Coffee with Ube and Boba with 25% sugar. It was perfect! Perfect sweetness!
• Taro Coconut Milk Tea with Mango was interesting. Real creamy coconut milk. Felt like the one’s I had in Thailand.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“

“Closest spot from DeAnza HS for coffee. I ordered Vietnamese coffee - they should update the picture on the menu because it shows a 12oz cup. The size that came out is almost half the size but is normal when there’s less ice - people might not know this and complain. For me, I like it this way as you can taste the full flavor. Very clean space but a bit run down. I wish the employee was playing music, it was so quiet… maybe because it was the weekend and school isn’t in session/less student customers. Putting one star down because the last time I went, I got a passion fruit boba and it just tasted like sugar in water with no fruit-flavor. This Vietnamese coffee though was a good turn-around/choice and hit the spot!“

“What a delightful place to stop and grab a delicious empanada or a boba drink. I just love the chicken adobo empanadas. The pastry is fresh, flaky, and crispy. The lightly spicy chicken and potato filling is tender and savory. So good. Be sure and try the house-made sweet chili sauce as well. For dessert, try the mango cheese cake empanada. It is tangy, fruity, rich with cream cheese and topped with a sugar-glazed crust. The prices are very affordable too!“

“It's really nice in there. You occasionally get a loud & noisy large group of students in there but it's right next to the UC Berkeley campus so that's their majority of the patrons. Parking is difficult in the area, it's located at the corner of two one-way intersections.“

“i’ve come here a few times already and the drink quality is excellent: flavorful and not overly sweet. i’m very picky about the texture and chew of the boba and cha thai tea def gets it right. had their mango sticky rice too, v good as well. cant wait to try their vanilla ube toast and other beverages. highly recommend!“

“Big fan of the signature milk tea that has all of the toppings like red bean and jelly. Great texture, great tea flavor and not too sweet like some other milk teas I’ve had, even at regular sugar levels. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Chinatown- one of the better SF milk tea shops for sure“

“I’m a regular and I love the environment and drinks at Teahut so definitely five stars!!! Highly recommended:))
But dear staff if you’re reading this please be careful with your fire when making the crème brûlée milk tea cause when i got it last time the top of the plastic cup got burnt and the lid did not hold well. I almost spilled the drink all over. But the drink itself was surely good!“

“Great tea and staff is super friendly… even the music playing was great…“

“Highly recommended! Great food and friendly owner.“

“Friendly service, very clean Love the passion fruit“

“Golden Tea Shop is so so good! I have recommended this place to my family and friends and they always want to come back! It may not be the fanciest boba shop, but it is truly an underrated one.

I’ve tried several boba shops in the Bay Area and this one has really good teas and toppings that are more niche (peach gum, tea jelly, etc). My personal favorite is the peach gum milk tea with black tea. It is so creamy with a nice tea taste, and I love the toppings it comes with.

The price is great and the cup is a good size. Disclaimer: drinks take time to prepare bc it’s family owned so be
patient. Give it a try, it’s great!“

“I've been here for a long time and for whatever reason my original review is not here. Nonetheless this place is amazing. A diamond hidden in the rough, an oasis for those who need a boba fix. It's a local store filled with anime goodies and is a TCG haven for Magic, Lorcana, Yu-Gi-Oh, and of course POKEMON! This is the place to be. There are different nights for specific TCG's and they have pokemon trade nights. I recommend joining the discord. Come by and enjoy a drink made by Em, or the guys talking about all the TCG's. The owners a nice guy to boot!“

“I came here this evening and ordered a bubble tea from the kiosk. The woman working was incredibly friendly, and they have a cute little store. But I ordered a black milk tea with 25% sugar and received an incredibly sweet brown sugar milk tea instead. It was way too sweet, but probably just an oversight.“

“it is small shop which touch screen kiosk to order near Oakland Chinatown. Practically you have to wait for the person in front of you finish their order before you get it. it might fit max 4 to 5 people. There are plenty option from the menu. You can choose sweet option.
The drink is pretty good. The price is reasonable.“

“I went there to treat myself during Jury Duty. This place was great. Lots of Boba options that looked good. The Vietnamese coffee was good. I got their 5 spices / shredded chicken Bahn Mi and devoured it. Atmosphere was tidy, nice staff, competent and speedy. Definitely a sold - can’t go wrong kind of place.“

“I randomly walked in an hour before closing looking for something to warm me up. I had a surprisingly delicious mocha. One of the better mochas I’ve tried I’ve had around the bay. My recommendation is get the mocha with no whip and 30% sugar with the salt creamer, genuinely amazing. Staff was really down to earth aswell.“

“Delicious. Wonderful staff. I was visiting from out of town and made it a point to visit this place again.“

“I absolutely love this boba spot! Their strawberry matcha latte is my favorite — perfectly balanced and so refreshing. Scott is amazing — he’s always so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about customizing drinks to make them just right. You can really tell he cares about the customers. Such a kind person and great service every time! Definitely support them — they deserve it!“

“their brown sugar milk tea was the best i ever had. their boba is amazing. they have vegan options for milk tea. the boss is super nice also.

update: their taro milk tea and pina colada smoothie is delicious as well according to my dad and bf. the brown sugar milk tea is still bomb and boba is fresh“

“This is the best boba place in Berkeley. The lady working here is so nice and she even gave my friend a free drink for his birthday! If you ever pull up here make sure to get the grape sparkling or any of the Thai tea. Their sushi roll is also amazing. I swear you won’t be disappointed :)

P.S. this was the drink that my friend requested“

“Stopped in at Christmas Eve as everything nearby was closed. Unfortunately I still had last minute shopping to do and got a caffeine headache.

The coffee was surprisingly really good. I definitely recommend this place. The two women who seemed to run it were incredibly kind.“

“Friendly staff, great (and healthy) Boba and bakery items.“

“I tried to get a sandwich here on a Sunday afternoon, and again on a Wednesday afternoon and it was closed both times. I’m not sure if this location is permanently closed…there’s no signage posted, nothing on their website, and neither location answers the phone. Bummer since their sandwiches were delish!“

“BOBA DRINKS, Chicken wings, spicy noodles. Social distancing, mask required, no dine_in, meter street parking, Great area near Veteran's Hospital and its across from Mr Banh Mi...“

“Very clean and open space. I ordered the grapefruit tea with lychee jelly which was delicious but also too sweet so next time I will tweak my order to have less sugar. My daughter ordered the milk tea with boba and puff cream (I think that is what it was). She loved it! We received our drinks promptly. Located near Fenton's“

“exquisite drinks They have to make a stop here..“

“Delicious boba tea, and probably the best I've gotten while in San Francisco. They had so many different variations, bases, and flavors to choose from, so you were practically guaranteed exactly what you were looking for! This is also a women-owned and run establishment! So that's just another great reason you should go and support!“

“was planning to buy myself a glass of a refreshment but everything was just pricey in the US😭 lol im sorry im not from here so for me it costs a lot

eventually can't resist because i was really in a mood for bubble milk tea and was actually strolling through china town and found this place!

i would say this place offers a really affordable prices for what you get as the glass was huge!! (L size)🥹🥹🫶🏼 i ordered the roasted milk tea + cool balls and it tasted so good! just the perfect amount of tea and milk🫶🏼

can you imagine everything costs only $7😭🫶🏼

the place is kinda cozy too and there's one machine on the side to let you order from it“

“Loved the mango boba with red beans ❤️So delicious and comforting, what’s more is that I paid the price of 1 for 2 with their special discount that day . Too bad there’s no branch here in the L.A. area .

Dietary restrictions: With the customized ordering, you can opt to reduce the sugar in your boba drink, I only had 50% of the amount of sugar for my calorie limit. So that’s really great and my boba tasted so yummy , my hubby had one too?“

“Taste are unique and Delicious What I like most is their best & friendly customer service ever Gonna enjoy Tp boba whenever I shop at westfield 😍 I really recommend Their classic boba & strawberry milk tea. Boba r fresh and chewy Their Mango cheese Cream is extreme good“

“Dragon Fruit Tea delicious“

“I’ve only had their smoothies and tasted the ice cream . It’s pretty good haven’t been disappointed . Thai tea ice cream is fire 🔥 . They do close early , earlier than their posted hours though sometimes a half hour early so best to arrive over an hour before they close . I haven’t tried their banh mi but they do seem pricey at nearly 18 dollars each!“

“This place is bomb.com, convenient, and super fast. They have a couple different kind of boba like strawberry poping boba! It's fire lol I'm not a big fan of the normal boba( tapioca balls ) 😖🍹🧋🏆💯🍓🍒🍑🍊🍉🍒🍏🥝🍇🍒🫐🥥🍓“

“Food was really good and healthy compared to a lot of other places out there. Got like a bowl thing that was a little bit spicy but it was really good. My girlfriend got a wrap that she really liked.

Prices weren't bad either given how healthy everything was. All the veggies were fresh and delicious but the sauce was where it shined for sure.“

“The price and size were very reasonable, and employee's were super nice (although they asked if we were related to our cousin for some reason, kinda strange but friendly). The boba and teas were delicious, and they had plenty of yummy options to choose from. They also had some food options, although we didn't try the meat thing our cousin got, cause we're vegetarian. Made my day better, so glad I went. This place is so much better than Boba Guys, which is just down the street. Do not try to go there, it won't be good. great place to get boba at RareTea!“

“We were visiting San Francisco for the first time, and were looking for some tasty refreshments after walking all day, when we came upon this gem. I had the Yakult Passion Fruit Green Tea and my husband had the Strawberry Milk. Both were perfect, and the place is super cute.“

“Sizzling � with blackened sauce was highly exceptional. This Moorish Asiatic shall return.“

“Not bad, sometimes service can range from a bit rude to pretty cool. Comes out fast but can also be delayed even if the app (use Snackpass, I recommend it)says it’s ready. Best boba in Berkeley so far, because they are consistent with quality, taste, and business. I have to give boba ninja another shot, they seemed pretty okay too!Plentea and share tea dropped in quality :/“

“Mondo yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Kuya Rod“

“​Yu's Cafe is a good spot for unique treats at very reasonable prices. It is located in Chinatown, beside a park. Their Coffee Cheese is absolutely delicious.

​The warm red bean dessert is another winner, delicious whether you order it hot or cold. The cafe uses an efficient touch screen ordering service, but the friendly staff are always there to provide warm service. Great value, great flavor!“

“The drinks are great and so is the food! I hope people support because it would be horrible to lose another small business in this area. Unfortunately, the shopping center doesn’t have a lot going for it anymore and I would hate to see the entire thing go away. However, if you like Boba and snacks, this is the place to go! The customer service is top-notch and I love their milk tea.“

“Best breakfast burrito I've ever had.“

“please hire more workers if rushes are going to make the wait for ice cream more than 30 minutes …. the ice cream is so good besides that. but it’s clear that having only one person making the ice cream results in wait times that are unreasonable for even rolled ice cream …. i get that rushes happen and a lot of people can come in at once but then be honest about wait times before i pay….“

“Supporting local business in Emeryville. Note that this place is on Christie opposite to FedEx, not inside the public market.

The noodles, while not the best pho in the bay area, they are decent. Both noodles they served came with delicious broth. Unlike many pho places, these didn't leave you with a dry mouth. Wish their beef can be softer and more tendered - that's the only (but critical) place to lose shine. You know - always room for improvement. Can't wait to come back and try their banh mi.“

“Good coffee, awesome smoothies( my favorite is the strawberry and banana) real, fresh, and delicious donuts all the time. Also, try the different breakfast sandwiches. Your tummy will appreciate it. And a lucky spot to play and win California Lottery“

“The owner is a lovely woman who tastes everything in her store to recommend the best Dubai chocolates and teas and cheeses for your tastes, which I found touching. We loved finding Dutch honey drops here and porcini mushrooms, and HIGHLY recommend getting a cortado at the coffee bar.“

“It tastes better than it looks. Good gathering place!“
