Good selection of drinks and great flavour.The Honeybear Boba has a good variety of beverages and toppings to choose from. We bought taro milk tea and peach green tea with tapioca toppings and they were both good. The Honeybear Boba offers other interesting options for toppings like crema, pudding, grass jelly etc. Would definitely go back to try them too. However, the size of the boba/ tapioca balls was a bit smaller compared to other boba shops. There is no sitting here so orders are only for takeaways.The staff is lovely and they give recommendations too. It is economical as compared to some other boba shops. In all, it was a good experience.

Visited Honeybear Boba with some friends while visiting the city. The location is small but it's well organized. I ordered the strawberry matcha and it was good. Wish there was more space to have a place to sit but over all it was a good experience.

One of the few boba shops in Dogpatch! No seating inside with wood walls and some merch. Service was fast here. I ordered 4 drinks with my friends and they all came out with 5 minutes of me ordering.Passionfruit Green Tea - 3/5 This drink was very syrupy. I asked for half ice and half sugar, and I still felt that the passion fruit syrup was too sweet and artificial. Not my favorite for sure

This place is coasting on their good reviews from years ago. As a regular and local customer, their drop in quality has been astounding.The last 3 times I've been there, I've had to ask to get my drink remade since it has tasted like there's no flavor in it. I might assume that the high school aged kids that run the place just don't care. The lady that runs the store kicks people out of the store 15 minutes before closing by tell everyone to get out.I wouldn't recommend this place anymore, and it's sad that such a great local business has gone down the drain to such an extent.

Decent drinks but the ordering/pickup experience is a bit chaotic, wasn't sure when my drink was ready until I went up to the counter to check.

This place is inconsistent but consistently bad. Their fruit teas are very artificial (i’ve tried strawberry, mango, and passion fruit). The strawberry green tea tasted perfume-y. Sometimes the hong kong milk tea and honey milk tea are decent. Nothing special. I like the mango slush which has always been good (though also artificial).The boba texture is either too soft or too hard. Like today there were some that were fine, others were still small black balls that didn’t even start cooking, and others in between. The density of the jam in the strawberry milk is too heavy, so it can’t mix well and you’re constantly going back and forth taking a sip from the milk up top and then a sip from the jam even after vigorously mixing.I’ve come back several times because it’s the only boba location in the area, but this place isn’t really worth your money.

This place is mos def top 5 in the city. The flavors and boba are solid and consistently good. They've extended the menu and merch is on point.Unfortunately the other consistent factor is a minus and that's the attention to detail. I've had four online orders missing a topping. It's on the ticket and I'm definitely getting charged. So as much as I recommend Honeybear I would add CHECK YOUR ORDER. It's something that doesn't happen at a lot of the other top tier spots.

I love honeybear boba!! I'm so glad this shop is in this neighborhood! My go to drink is usually the taro milk tea with boba at 75% sweet and the boba is very chewy! I also heard the brown sugar crema drink is delicious so I'll have to try that next time. They're fast at making drinks and there's not usually a huge wait which is great if you don't like long lines. I always peruse and take a peek around the cute merchandise and decor on the wall. This store decor will be sure to perk up your day and mood! Visit this place for an afternoon treat and you won't be disappointed!

I would visit this boba shop more often if I lived closer. I've been here multiple times and tried different drinks. I've liked everything I have tried so far. The ones I like the most are Uncle Larry's Dreamsicle and Matcha Crema. I am lactose sensitive so I usually sub with oat milk. The boba is nice and chewy. This is quick service with no seating so be prepared to take your drink with you. I like supporting small businesses, and even more reason to support Mr. Larry June. Good job Larry.

This is a quaint little Dogpatch neighborhood find. The inside had a modern day vibe with bright colors and simplistic decor. The menu is very to the point & easy to read. The service is friendly, down to Earth, & knowledgeable. I ordered a strawberry matcha with oat milk, honey boba, & 25% sweetness. The flavor was mild, refreshing, & the perfect amount of sweetness for me. The best part is the honey boba which has a great texture & consistency. There's even a cute little park with great shade a block away. We will definitely be back when I'm looking for a midday boba tea pick me up.
