“Honey milk tea w/ mini boba & mango popping boba (left), Rose milk tea w/ mini boba (right) and sweet potato fries. Loved both drinks!This has been my go to place for boba drinks but for the fried snack options, I wish they were less greasy.Highly recommend the additional topping of mango popping boba for a fun little kick to the drink. They also have the option for a strawberry popping boba.“

“Refreshing place 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Good Boba place in the area. There are a lot of options and many add-ons and flavors to make your drink taste wonderful. Workers are friendly and patient. Wish this place is closer to my home.“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“I've been here multiple times now and drive out of my way to get boba from here. Everything I've gotten so far has been amazing, including the taro milk tea, the matcha milk tea, and the jasmine milk tea. The Thai milk tea is good but similar to any other place. The service has been quick every single time that I've been. I come here for the great quality taste and for the reliable, fast service. And it is super reasonably priced.“

“I love Yoma cafe, the food is amazing, great price, the owner is always so welcoming and nice to everyone.“

“I visited Dots few times before and tried their HK Lemon Tea in my last visit. The taste was incredibly authentic and brought back fond memories of Hong Kong. I’ve tried other drinks here before as well, and they have all been fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone craving a genuine drink!“

“One of my top go to spots for milk tea, sugar cane, mango pomelo, and their jelly toppings in the Bay. Quality tea and owner provided great service. The drinks are consistent and similar to what I had in Taiwan. I’d recommend to anyone looking for Taiwanese quality tea“

“Drinks were tasty, good place for order pick up. The front staff is not welcoming. The owner or male cashier was talking to a woman for a while. He ignored most of his customers. Even though there is a kiosk for ordering, the place was slow, the man kept ignoring other customers that walked in.“

“great boba in a cute area by the beach! we got the brown sugar milk tea and the hojicha milk tea and they were both incredible! the hojicha milk tea is worth the wait and the area is perfect to check out the local shops while waiting!

Dietary restrictions: they have multiple dairy free options as well as fresh fruit teas“

“Yummy 😋 and good place! And friendly staff“

“The Longan Lime Green Tea is what you want :) It’s not a common combination I see which is why I ordered it - was pleasantly surprised! It’s slightly sweet yet refreshing.

Quiet for a Friday evening around 6pm but don’t let that turn you away! Staff is friendly. Cash and card accepted both at the kiosk and the counter register. Limited seating inside and no bathroom.“

“Best Dang Gone Place To Afford Milk 🥛 Tea 🍵 In San Francisco & A Few But Great Varieties to choose from. My Personal Favorite Is The Alien Tonic 👽. Mmmm Taste just like Sprite. In Fact it is Sprite. But a with a Sweet & Bursting Kick Of Refreshing Taste 😋

Kid-friendliness: Nice Little Kids section over in the corner of the Milk Tea store where the children can color in the whiteboard & etc little toys and such“

“Enjoying my boba during this hot day👍“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

“This place is a must for boba lovers and matcha lovers. It is a excellent location for a afternoon snack. It is a little bit of a wait because there are so many other people who want some of that good boba. I would highly recommend getting the Ice-cream Boba Egg Puff Waffle because it has the choice for cookies and cream which had a very nice flavour. The Egglet was the best part because it was crispy and tasted extremely better than most places. I would definitely recommend coming here to get a snack!“

“Wonderfully authentic milk teas etc..boba perfect..always remember you but now Yvonne is down in financial district shop..have not been there but here on Geary..it’s the best tea around..try the salty whip cream as well..very well done! Recc. highly..“

“Friendly staff and yummy tea. Thank you“

“I’ve always heard good things about Yifang but honestly I’m quite disappointed at this store. As a boba place they were out of boba and mini taro boba which made things much less appealing; also the red bean coconut latte tasted just like coconut milk, the amount of red bean is much less than what their ads picture looks like. Maybe I should’ve gotten something else“

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

“Fancy and beautifully decorated. Not your average boba/desert restaurant. This used to be another boba shop, but that one went defunct. The weird thing is, Fate Tea uses the same cups as the defunct boba shop. Popcorn chicken was not available as I walked in right when they were closing at 7pm. I usually get a popcorn chicken when I get a milk tea. Their iced milk tea $6 can be described as lacking good tea flavor with too much milk. I couldn't tell if it was black tea or jasmine tea. The redeeming factor was, it did hit the spot and quite refreshing. Lady cashier/barista was fast and cool. Good job.“

“Tpumps is always quick, and offers a large amount of taster tea that is appreciated during the line. Unfortunately there isn’t any sit down area, but their prices make up for it - esp on Tpumps Tuesday where you get a free upgrade. My favorite drink is the green tea - peach rose lemon w honey boba and light ice and sweetness

Without light sweet the drink could be too sugary since the boba is honey boba which adds to the sugar content“

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

“5 stars when the hardworking short girl is working! My drinks always come out quickly and PERFECT!

When it’s just the guys working, my drink is always cooked (sugar/tea ratio not right, wrong size, takes longer)

Pls give the girl a raise ?“

“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!“

“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.“

“Handmade boba is a real gamechanger. I was so glad to find refuge after walking blocks and blocks of boba-less streets. The menu looks almost exactly like the Daly City location which is my top 3. Glad to see this place did not disappoint.I typically order the plain drinks. Nothing overly sweet, like the HK Milk Tea. This time I tried the Matcha Latte. Much yum.“

“I always get their matcha it’s pretty good most of the time

Except there have been a few occasions where the boba seemed like not done and had a tough texture which isn’t great

Service is usually super quick and friendly as well

Also they say the boba isn’t ready til 11:30 just a heads up if ur headed there when they open, although I’ve still ordered it as soon as they open and they’ve had it“

“Love this place the wait and drive is worth it“

“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! 🥤 🌞 🇹🇼“

“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“

“The boba was okay and the indomie was very much fancy instant noodles, but the place is very cute and very suited for studying or working! There's plenty of tables and very cute decor. Will try some more snacks off their menu when I go a second time; they seem to have pretty interesting choices.“

“ATMOSPHERE IS INTENSE ONLY BECAUSE IT'S REALLY REALLY BUSY. STAFF IS VERY EFFICIENT IN TIME MANAGEMENT AND HUNDREDS OF ORDERS PER HOUR.

All the Tea choices I have tried so far have been amazing. Lucky I get to come here once per week hopefully I will have a favorite within a month or two.

Kid-friendliness: kids are busy waiting with friends for an order to go.

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance is street level which makes it easy to pick up your order in a wheelchair.“

“Tea was delicious and they had various unique flavors. Will return!“

“I love the passion fruit tea! You have to try it!!!!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Located in the Parkside neighborhood, Milktopia is a small unassuming storefront; however, once you step inside you're greeted with a wide array of tea beverages, snacks and soft serve options - something for everyone!

Inside Milktopia, ordering can be done either with one of their employees or at the kiosk. Seating isn't plentiful in the store, which makes sense given the size; however, there are four bar stool style seating available for those of you wanting to enjoy your selections. Otherwise, most patrons often take their goodies to-go and enjoy them while strolling around the area.

I ordered their mango pomelo sago, the HK silky milk tea, and the salty egg puff. Mango pomelo sago is a personal go-to drink of mine, and I'm happy to share that the one crafted by Milktopia tastes just as good as any of my favorites. The HK silky milk tea was authentic, although I will note they use evaporated milk (as opposed to the usual condensed milk) so the drink is a little less sweet than it normally is, which could be a bonus to some. Their egg puffs are freshly made and take about 10 or so minutes to prepare. Their salty egg puff was a delicious mix of savory and sweet flavors, and they also have other unique egg puff flavors including oreo, boba, and meat floss (which I'll definitely be back to try in the future).

If you're in the Parkside area and are looking for your next best boba stop, then I highly recommend giving Milktopia a try!“

“great hours
sometimes long lines
makes trying
to grab and go from
daily specials pre made
stored in fridge
behind crash wrap counter
a slow process.
still worth it only other stores open after 9 p.m.
in that shopping veneer are cvs next door and Safeway further on other side.“

“I just moved to Monrovia! tpumps and it is one of my newest obsessions!!! Its so refreshing and perfect for any day 10/10 would recommend!!!“

“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.“

“This is a solid place to get coconut pudding when the craving hits. They have a wide variety of flavors, each packed in a cute reusable glass jar. I’m really glad this place exists in SF, so I don’t have to leave the city for this treat.“

“Congratulations, the best te i've ever tried i love boba milk tea! :)“

“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.“

“My son and sister ordered some drinks. It is a very small place and it took about 20 minutes to get the drinks. I thought that was little long, considering we had to pay for patking.

Kid-friendliness: The staff were busy talking to a customer instead of making our drinks.“

“High recommend this spot! I was rly disappointed when I found out that boba guys closed down, but I’m also glad bc it helped me find this place! I was initially skeptical of Lilikoi Boba but I’m glad that I gave it chance! I tried the horchata smoothie with boba and it was really refreshing and the boba was great! The boba was freshly made and had the perfect amount of chew.

Lilikoi is now my go to boba shop in the Burlingame area. I’ve been twice now and I can confidently say that I highly recommend it! It also has a little nice sitting area in the back if you want to hang out with your friends.“

“Wonderful tea, boba, and coffee! District Tea has a wide selection of snacks and beverages that are delicious. I really enjoy the twin peaks drink (lychee and mango fruit tea) with lychee jelly. The price for the drinks are reasonable especially compared to other boba tea spots.“

“FRESH, organic, has quite a few milk options (even lactose free) and a large selection of drinks! I loved that they used real taro for their drink. Friendly staff. Worth it!

Vegetarian options: Milk options+ oat milk for vegans

Parking: Street parking was difficult to find. We got lucky.“
