Bubble Tea near San Carlos

“The Tea Hut is my favorite place to get tea. It has a great selection of teas, all of which are made with fresh ingredients and premium teas. I like that they offer a variety of flavors, from classic black tea to more exotic options like jasmine green milk tea.“

“Best boba in my opinion. My drink of choice is the strawberry matcha latte (my husband prefers just the matcha latte). The other drinks are ok but nothing beats the strawberry matcha latte. My son, who is not a boba fan, loves the strawberry fields drink, which is strawberry puree in milk. The spot is small, a little sticky, and has some flies, and you get lots of kids, but the service is pretty good. In our most recent visit, my son accidentally knocked over his drink and the cashier immediately offered to remake his drink at no charge.It's located well and very walkable to others places for a good meal.“

“My favorite secret in San Carlos. Their juices are so good, super fruit, grapefruit- you can't go wrong. They make it fresh for you so it's even more delicious and the fruit is fresh so you can actually eat it after. Vietnamese coffee is also very good here! The service is good as they are operating a Chinese restaurant next door so it's a two for one really if you want food too. There is a parking lot right next door where you can park as long as you aren't there long. They redid the whole store recently and it looks good.“

“After a wonderful lunch with family, while we enjoy our walk at downtown, Tong sui catch our attention, so we decide to give it a try. The server is really nice and help us for the selection.We got Da hong pau tea latte and Osmanthus oolong tea latte. We both getting 50% sweetness (recommended) and less ice.Saw the special menu will come back again to try it.“

“I would highly recommend the black sesame with coconut filling birthday cake. It is so yummy and not sweet. Great and friendly customer service. I have ordered the same birthday cake two months in a row. This will be my Go To place for getting birthday cakes. Please support our local restaurants.“

“Easily my top 2 boba spots in the bay! Their quality is so consistent and unique flavors keep me as a loyal customer. Sunright has 2 kiosks and a counter to order from but they're never too busy and always have enough staff so there usually isn't a long wait! Milk teas in general - Super fragrant and made out of actual brewed tea so quality?? Unmatched. Their Yakult drinks can be VERY sweet so I'd personally recommend 75-50% sweetness. Their boba is also of perfect texture and perfectly drenched in honey syrup. **They used to have aged tea latte which was my fav but it hasn't been available for months now :((**“

“Glad we walked all the way to the end of the terminal to try Mama Go's Filipino Cuisine because it was delicious. They had a line but it moved relatively quick and we weren't in a rush. Service is so kind and generous. It gave off a homey vibe and they had some authentic class Filipino dishes which is a plus. Price was on the higher side but it is the airport. The garlic rice was fantastic and went well with the chicken adobo. The entree also came with a side dish, which is a great selection.“

“This is a really spacious location compared to other locations they have in the area. Many tables for seating! A few people were waiting for their drinks and socializing. Cozy little spot. This is conveneient across from Ramen Nagi and Son & Garden as well.I recommend the Mango Mochi Coconut Pudding and the Jasmine Coconut Pudding! These are my favorites, but definitely get pricey. For drinks, my go-to is the Da Hong Pao (DHP) Latte with Jelly! Very fragrant tea, but still creamy from the milk. A well balanced milk tea.“

“One of my go to Boba places in Redwood City. They have consistent quality tea drinks with chewy boba. They also have long hours of operation Great for a late night boba. I usually have the jasmine green tea. They also have good coconut milk, tea with red bean topping. There's no place to sit but it's right in front of Redwood city Hall.“

“I'm surprised by this Pink Pink. My experience in the Santa Clara location was so bad, I swore to never get it again. They sell soft serve/froyo here?! It's really yummy - totally would get again. I asked for a sample and they gave me a small cup. Peach oolong milk tea was good. Boba was chewy. Drink had a lot of creamer though...would tone it down. Overall, I would not be opposed to coming here again and trying their other drinks!“

“I've always liked happy lemon since their taste of all the happy lemon drinks in different branches have always stayed consistent. It's my first time at this particular location & I came at a slow time during mid day which is nice since the other locations I've been usually gets packed. The ambiance of this location is so nice since it's so clean inside & it's located near a lot of different food chains. Totally would go back to this location.“

“Stopped in while charging my car. Ordered the classic crepe with lemon and it was GREAT! $9.00 out the door and it was worth every dime. The woman who helped was very nice and even offered water. I ate there and the restaurant was small but clean. Next time you charge your next to Safeway try it out you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!“

“I think this place is very nice and welcoming. The food was amazing as well. There is nothing I would say is bad about this place. My mom brought me here as like a mother daughter date and I think it was a great choice. I see a lot of families eating here and celebrating. The service was great.Kid-friendliness: There are many kids that I have seen here.“

“No frills Asian drinks place. Not for sit down (although the anime posters and toys on the walls are fun) but strong mix of options. Would highly recommend preordering via Snack pass app (to avoid the wait). Only downside side is not only is there no place to sit at the site, but there's not really any place to sit outside unless you take tables/chairs allocated to the Laundromat or the Wingstop“

“Love Rare Tea, its popcorn chicken and various milk drinks! Plus the location is so perfect by not having to drive downtown to get my popcorn chicken fix! Fast friendly service with ample parking to boot! Forget driving downtown and cater to this great place instead! Highly recommend“

“Phenomenal, simply put. We tried the oolong, thai, and frozen butter beer. We all loved it. Service is great, they have great selection. They have dairy free options.Vegetarian options: Dairy free optionsParking: Some parking in the front and paid street parking.“

“I work upstairs and this cafe has everything you could possibly want and need. Breakfast foods, coffee, boba, sandwiches, and desserts. Service is always quick and the ladies who work there are extremely nice. The mochi muffins are AMAZING. The chicken pesto is my favorite. You can't go wrong with any of the smoothies, boba, or coffee. Boba is a bit on the sweet side so I always ask for less sugar and they're able to accommodate me. So happy to have them in the building!“

“My go-to drink is the pure grape, reminiscent of a creamy grape slushy. The chewy crystal boba adds a delightful texture. I highly recommend opting for no sugar--it's naturally sweet enough, believe me. This boba shop is tucked inside a Chinese restaurant, exuding a very casual, typical boba shop vibe. Service-wise, it's quick and efficient, ensuring a fast experience.“

“When Tiger Tea opened, I thought "does San Mateo really need another boba place?" I was wrong. We had a craving for Thai Tea and popped into Tiger Tea. Also saw their Avocado shake and was intrigued since I've only seen these at Viet restaurants. Both drinks were fantastic Thai tea had a strong tea flavor with just enough sweetness at 75% 5/5 Avocado shake was very refreshing, creamy and sweet 5/5“

“We tried their signature purple rice yogurt dessert and were pleasantly surprised by its delicious taste! The rice, seemingly cooked in coconut milk and brown sugar (our unconfirmed guess), adds a delicate flavor that pairs well with the plain vanilla yogurt. We loved it and will definitely return to explore more flavors!“

“TLDR: high quality tasty tea with great bobaI got the tie guan yin milk tea with boba for $6 and it came out within 2 minutes. The milk tea was silky and creamy, the boba was soft and chewy. The tea flavor was very strong and even at 50%, the sweetness was a bit strong but still very good and enhanced the flavor of the drink. Would definitely come back to try some other drinks“

“Nice and friendly staff! Got the last mochi donut. Come before 4PM on weekends if you want to have flavor options. Best mochi donut in the area. Stir-fry boba is great texture but on the sweet side. They have crystal boba as well if you don't want sweet. Great instagram photo spots inside and outside the store!“

“Looking for something different with a nice view ? girls in bikini if that is offensive I apologize but it's a reality here drinks are for the most part good but the women working are the real reason you go maybe not a place to go with kids or family.“

“Addicted to their new heniken 0% beer drink. It has a very smooth rich profile that blends the flavors of a good brew with a fine lime green tea. Very unique flavor based on about 10yr of Boba enjoyment . Love it. It's a reason it's signature. I had 2 if not 3. Great way to cool down and I'm sure the rest of the drinks are just as great.Seating is good and it can get crowded. There is online ordering and kiosk.Parking: Park a block away at the street lots. No parking on this busy street. Plus side it's very walkable.“

“Originally I came to try their Taro 2.0 drink but it seems to always be out of stock.....My second choice was the Oreo Matcha which I really liked. Boba was nice and chewy. Alterations to non-dairy milk is included, which I appreciate since most places charge extra. However I think ~$8 is a bit pricy, especially for the smaller sized cup. If they ever replenish their Taro drink I shall return.“

“We used to order a lot at boba guys in San Francisco but then we moved out from the city. We walked by this boba guys location so often and here you go the new fall winter drinks have arrived! Can’t wait to try them allDietary restrictions: You can sub with soy or oat milkParking: It’s very near by few parking lots and street parking tooKid-friendliness: They have non-caffeine drinks“

“I ordered via Snackpass so the whole process was touch-less and hassle-free. No human contacts. When they finished your orders, they would text you or Snackpass simply alerted me my order was ready before the estimated time. Quite fast considering the very long line.They were the only boba shop in Stanford shopping center, I think. Other drink shops I encountered were coffee and juices.The drinks were delicious, especially in hot days and you’re so dehydrated. They were so thirst quenching.Parking: Plenty of free parking lots in the mallKid-friendliness: Kids love milk tea and fruit teaWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair entrance and roadside“

“The boba places was great! I got the tropical delight with honey crystal boba and a few other toppings and it was delish! Highly recommend! Fresh boba, fresh ingredients, very flavorful! Server was extremely polite and even offered me to have the 32oz drink though I ordered the 24oz one since my toppings were a lot! I just got to go, the cafe was cute and small with not much room to sit around.. One feedback for the place though: I'm all fort being environment friendly, but those eco-friendly straws were breaking as I was drinking my drink so that was really annoying!“

“Boba had a good texture, though it could be chewier, and was barely sweet, which is my preference.You can get drinks without sugar and ice, and they don't give you less liquid.They have cold brew coffee and coffee milk teas.I was excited that they had drinkable mochi but it was way too sweet and a little grainy/gritty. Sadly I will have to go back to Ume for my drinkable mochi cravings.“

“Very tasty boba, well made with great portions.The employees were very nice. Not very much sitting or standing room available. Will have to sit outside somewhere around the public seating closer to parking area. You will likely need to order at the kiosk that does not take cash.“

“This review is for the drinks only. This Boba shop has mini Boba options. So far I have tried the Rose black Milk Tea. It was good. Then got the classic milk tea w sea salt cream, coco jelly & red beans with 0% sweet because I know the red bean is coated with sugar water. It was really good. How do you recommend the drinks? However, I got the popcorn chicken and it was not good, super oily, and it tasted old. Had to buy said I threw the whole thing away.“

“Self checkout menu that isn't always easy to navigate, and I thought I placed the order but it didn't process. Not their fault but had to go back in line and reorder after waiting for 10 min, oopsMatcha was decent, but didn't seem like they are focused on preparing it as some of the smaller shops do (didn't bamboo whisk for example)“

“This is a small boba milk tea place in sequoia station. You just walk in and order. There's no place to sit. I ordered the mango milk tea with 50% sweetness and light ice. It was actually better than I expected. It was under $6 (which seems about right). I think I'll go back to try other flavors.“

“As the name suggests, it's a place for quick milk tea and bubble tea options. And by quick, I do mean that they are very fast at making drinks. They do have chewy milk tea, but the flavor of their tea isn't as strong as I would have liked.They have increased the amount and types of food they serve with plenty of street snacks, rice bowls, and even ramen!“

“My family and I came here on recommendation from another friend that loves Boba. Parking sucks! My family and I were driving in three separate cars, since we just came from dim sum in Millbrae, and trying to find a spot with all of us in the same area was ridiculous on a Sunday afternoon afternoon! Nevertheless, the GPS did not tell us that half of the street on "B St. was closed for the public to walk and kind of like the Covid times, where everything is set up for businesses to eat outdoors. I really like that idea of eating outdoors, but I wish the GPS had updated their system telling us there was no parking. Lol. Once inside the café, everything was so cute and organized. I really liked it! It was a long rectangular restaurant that went all the way back and they even had an upstairs area with a loft that overlooked the register area that we were sitting in below. Since we had a rather large party, we sat outside, and there were at least four tables with chairs all the way around for everybody to sit in. The restaurant next-door seems to be under a change of ownership, so my nephews were able to ply freeze dance in a designated area without bothering anybody. Lol the Boba itself tasted delicious. I got the T8-I think it was with passionfruit and Boba and it was delicious! I always do my Boba without sugar and light ice because I really want to taste the green tea and I figure Boba is already sweet anyways. There was a little bit of a lemon/lime citrus flavor in the Boba itself, which I also loved!! My boyfriend got an easy green tea with just Boba in it and it had this cool drink carrier with a dragon around the top! It was so pretty my nephews always wish they had one too! Lol as their orders came up, each one of them had a cool dragon drink carrier, and they were so proud of their Taiwanese, Chinese, Filipino heritage! I will definitely be back here again to try more of their drinks!! Hee“
