50 Best Bubble Tea near San Carlos

“Very cute spot, quick service, sweet staff, and great flavor options. They have two ordering screens inside and sweetness level is adjustable now (previously wasn’t based on other reviews). I’ve been there twice and had a lovely experience both times.“

“For those like me who care about the quality of ingredients and avoid unhealthy foods this place is great! No artificial additives, real milk and zero sugar options. And the large cup is actually large . I got jasmine tea with zero sugar and zero ice, 3 portions of red beans and 1 portion of boba“

“me encanta esta muy buena y no tardan tanto con tu orden...ilove💕“

“Amazing tea with great variety! Accidentally stumbled across this place, have returned since, and am never disappointed! The milk tea boba is great, but the Super Fruit green tea with passion fruit popping boba is next level. The fresh fruit slices mixed in with the tea are a refreshing surprise and the fruit is always ripe and delicious. I tried the grapefruit fruit tea today as well which hit the spot! Would definitely recommend checking out Tea Juice!“

“We stopped by on a busy Saturday evening and ordered the coconut breeze and the mango mochi coconut pudding. I like how both items taste fresh and not too sweet. The mango is ripe and sweet. The drink had a lot of textures and is well balanced.“

“I love Tong Sui!! Glad there's one near where I usually get my car serviced. Stopped by for the first time and they got A LOTTA flavors to try!! I love jasmine flavors and this summer they have it as a Jasmine Coconut Pudding!! Hope it'll stick around all-season instead!! Servicer is super nice and attentive as well!! Will come back!!“

“Raises the Tea bar considerably!“

“came from sf for the love and deepspace collab! we got the caleb (apple oolong) and sylus (grapefruit) drinks. caleb tasted kinda sandy but there were five million people in the store, so no worries. both really tasty still. i recommend 100% sweet. good luck to the workers because there were a lot of whiny people you guys are the best 😭👍“

“The drinks are excellent. The food is all decent for the most part, but I absolutely love the fried rice for a comfort meal. It's clear they make it to order because it's so hot and fresh whenever I get it. Add an egg, you won't regret it!“

“I have been a customer there for 1 year and I love it, this is best Boba place in redwood city, I highly recommend this place if you want Boba, whoever didn't rate 5 stars, I want what your smoking“

“Black sugar milk tea ! Yummy“

“Yummy delicious and super cool 😎“

“The tea here is good compared to other tea shops in the area. The milk and sugar doesn't overwhelm the tea. The shop is decorated with anime figures but there's no seating in the shop. Ordering is through just 1 kiosk, but our tea order of 4 was prepared in a timely manner. Parking was not a problem on a Tuesday afternoon.“

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

“Tried the coconut grass jelly milk tea with 30% sugar, I don't have sweet teeth so it is still a little bit sweet, otherwise it is pretty good, the toppings are very fresh and you can taste the coconut quite a bit. There are also a lot of seats inside, clean, can hangout with friend there.“

“Enjoying my boba during this hot day👍“

“Tpumps is a great place to get boba at a decent price. Not too long ago, they raised their prices by 50 cents, which is disappointing but understandable. My go-to at Tpumps is the blackberry peach black tea with boba, and it always hits the spot. The pearl-tea ratio isn't the best, but the drink is still very worth it. I can appreciate the amount of customization this boba place offers, from the long list of flavors, to the many topping choices, to the amounts of sweetness and ice you can request, to the option to add milk. That's what makes it different from the rest. The staff at Burlingame are particularly excellent. A customer once mistook my order for their own and left, and the employees quickly noticed and remade my drink. Overall, a fine boba place, 4/5.“

“I recommend people to try all drinks their very much delicious every topping is fire I love how they close late at night decent time keep up the good work guys !!!❤️🙏🤩“

“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! 🥤 🌞 🇹🇼“

“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!“

“You never go wrong with Happy Lemon for boba. The location is in the heart of Redwood city. The parking is a bit hard, then you walk to the strip mall to get to the shop. The staff was friendly. My friend accidentally ordered the wrong item, and staff were happy to fix it. The shop is small with few tables, but it’s very neat and clean“

“Could not be more appreciative of their excellent customer service. I dropped a drink I ordered inside their store on the floor, not only did they clean it up, but also made a new one for me. I am so grateful! The drink is also very delicious, they put a lot of efforts in making it just right.“

“Pretty cool little spot for a quick Tea!!! Ice area etc.“

“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!“

“Trumps . Where do I begin, the great customer Service, Delicous samples, great options, and tasty drinks. I went here yesterday at around 1:50ish, the samples were very good. The worker that took are order was very nice and chill, it only took 5 minutes to get our drinks. I recommend coming here“

“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!“

“I had such a lovely experience here! I stopped by last week while doing laundry next door, honestly in a pretty bad mood. Kelly (I think she’s the owner?) greeted me with such kindness and even offered me a complimentary Oreo smoothie — it completely turned my day around!

When I came back this week, I was so surprised and touched that she still remembered me. The drinks are refreshing and delicious, but it’s the amazing customer service and genuine smile that really make this place special. Highly recommend!“

“I ordered three things - a oolong-peach tea, brown milk boba tea, and brown milk with boba (not tea). Of these three, two orders were wrong.

They forgot to put boba in the brown milk w/boba. This was not as bad as what they did with the oolong peach tea.

First they said they do not have oolong-peach tea, so they will make green-peach, to which I agreed. When they gave it to me they told me by mistake that it was Jasmine, while the order slip said green. When I mentioned that, they lied and said it was green tea. When I tasted it it was jasmine.

To their credit they did offer to amend all their mistakes.“

“I go here all the time for their claw machines, unique drinks, and MUCH cheaper coconut pudding than places like Tong Sui (hate to start competition but it must be said). The customer service, always very nice ladies working behind the counter! Their drinks I love too, especially the mango coconut pudding drink. Lots of lower reviews of how slow this business runs is not true. Only once did that happen to me in 3 years of going there, and it is important to understand that I always see that workers behind the counter trying to handle it the best they could! They don’t slack off!“

“Mama Go’s at SFO is such a gem! The Filipino food here is absolutely delicious and comforting, which is rare to find at an airport. I always go for the pancit sotanghon—it’s flavorful, light yet filling, and reminds me of a true homemade dish. The portions are generous, the service is quick (perfect for travelers on the go), and the food quality never disappoints. Definitely my go-to spot whenever I’m flying through San Francisco. Highly recommend if you’re craving something tasty and authentic before your flight!“

“Great food and drink♥️ I love“

“yo comiendo con un servicio para este cliente por sus seguidores y un servicio“

“Super nice and helpful staff, the drinks were ready so fast! The tea and boba are pretty good, but the menu is slightly limited. The interior of this place is not the cutest, but there's lots of chairs. Very good location, right in the downtown.“

“Mid Dec2024 Trendy bubble tea or boba store that serves drinks and food as well. Understandably the menu of mixtures is extensive.

Generally caters to young consumers and keeps up to date with the local trends and tastes.

Often a dessert or after meal spot.

Expect US size servings.“

“Their leaf quality is next level. I love the tie guan yin oolong. The boba quality is solid. Staff are friendly. Their matcha latte leaves a lot to be desired. It has an artificially too sweet honey flavor. Can't taste the matcha. It is barely green. Boba bliss has better matcha (Izumi Matcha even better though).“

“I go here all the time- since I go to the middle school down the road it’s very convenient. I ALWAYS get this drink- Strawberry lemonade, normal sweetness, no/less ice, 2x lychee jelly, 1x mango jelly. It’s always so good every time! The tofu cubes are not good but I don’t like tofu in general so that’s just me. It doesn’t take too long- but really depends on how busy it is. The staff is nice but doesn’t talk much. The atmosphere is nice too! I love the vibes of this place. I don’t get tapioca boba but the lychee and mango jelly is so good, especially if you love jello or stuff like that. It’s chewy but not too chewy, and very sweet. I recommend if you like fruity/sweet drinks.“

“太棒了，肉品沒吃多少，倒是吃了好幾磅的櫻桃🍒“

“I come to T4 so much because I can't seem to get enough of the Mango Fanactics drink.

It is coconut infused with Mango and I normally get it with lychee jelly. You can't adjust the sugar level though, but I still love it.

I will continue to come all the time, and it deserves 5 stars.“

“Great variety of any drinks.“

“I recently tried the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea from Teaspoon SM, and it did not disappoint! The tea was rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed—not too sweet, but just the right balance to highlight the creamy milk flavor. The boba pearls were soft, chewy, and fresh, adding that perfect bit of texture with every sip.“

“Best tuna melt I ever had. Thank you so much. I enjoyed my lunch.“

“really like the donuts, especially at this café. The dough is just right, with a rich flavor and an extraordinary shape that makes it easy to eat. It's also very pleasant to sit outside and have a coffee. The decor is all pink and very pleasant, and the staff greets you with a smile. I highly recommend it.“

“Olivia’s Tanghulu is available there! These candied fruits are such a fun and nostalgic treat! So crunchy and delicious! They are the perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and they bring back childhood memories with every bite. Highly recommend grabbing some when you stop by! Such a unique and tasty find! Go early before they sell out!“

“I got a taro milkshake with boba with my father along with a grape lemon slushy! I liked my drink and my Dad didn’t have to pay vey much! We had a great father-daughter outing there! We consider coming back next time.“

“Although the service can be slow at times the food was great especially the fried calamari, teas, an smoothies.���“

“Tasty vietnamese desserts. Staff are knowledgeable about how to make items vegan and many things are automatically vegan. Got the red bean trio which was really tasty, liked the different textures. The pandan jelly was good and not artificial tasting at all. The taro in it added a nice creaminess. Also got the choco banana smoothie with soymilk which was good.“

“sandwich great cookies. great friendly owners“

“The best bubble tea shop. Quality tea. Originally from Taiwan and very popular there because they use natural ingredients. Lots of non caffeinated drinks too. We love their taro milk and Aiyu jelly lemon tea (a traditional Taiwanese jelly made out of healthy Aiyu seed). My only complaint is their ordering system online. That stupid web based tool only allows for one topping. They really need to fix this.“

“Yall trippin, that oreo ice blended with pearl be too good? I recommend you get it at 100% sweetness too. Its the perfect mix between a milky, icee oreo shake and sweet milk boba drink. The consistency is perfect too and the taste is just ughh?The customer service is pretty good and my drink never takes long to be served. The longest wait was ten and that's on a busy day.“

“The boba was nice! We did order via the digital screen and the option to customize sugar/ice was not offered. Or did we miss it.
We were at the place 6:30 pm on Tuesday. The only customers. The order took a loooooong time.
It’s a peculiar thing that they still seem to have their Halloween decoration out :). It’s end of February:)

Plenty of parking at the plaza.“
