Super fresh delicious teas!
The boba soft serve was also amazing!!!
I wish I lived closer but then again I would probably be here everyday!
Can't wait to come back and try all the other drinks!!!
Got the soft serve with mango... Delicious. Will return again!
Nothing to say. I was so disappointed!!!!
One of my favorite boba places in the city. The boba puff waffles & guava lemon burst tea are favorites.

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!

Very bad service. I order ice cream with popping boba but he gives me with the crystal one. At that time , there was only one customer and doing my orders like a tortoise. And he even gave me a rude look. I mean why is he even working?

Just popped in for a quick dessert of soft serve with mango popping boba. Quite good, and pretty large for the price. Would try other items in the future.

A Hong Kong milk tea with no boba cost me $6.25 but the worst part is that there was no "opt out" on the tipping screen. When I picked to custom tip, they would not accept less than $1. They basically force you to tip and pay over $8 for any one drink. Service was slow as there was one worker and it took 15 min for me and my friend to get our drinks.

Stopped by to try some ice cream after lunch. The young man working by himself didn’t greet us even after we had been in the shop for a while. I feel like he could have been friendlier. The dessert was just okay, in my opinion.

I did a quick stop to grab the Oreo brulee milk tea and it’s now my favorite drink in SF so far! I only like going to shops with unique flavors and this takes the cake. I might try the regular creme brulee next time but I really loved the one I got. For a specialty milk tea with boba, the price was very reasonable! My rating is purely based on what I ordered. The shop itself is very small but clean and aesthetic enough for my tastes. The worker wasn’t the friendliest but not rude either, just mostly uninterested but good at what he does. If you want a quick grab n go, highly recommend! And would definitely come back.
Would give it 1 star but adding an extra for the single employee working there. Came by around 7pm on a Tuesday. There was a crowd outside and only one person working. I felt super bad for him and he was working really hard. He was also really apologetic about the wait.Ordered a mango shake and the mango pomelo sago. Mango shake was tiny, I expected it to be bubble tea size but it was maybe half that. The mango shake also was completely white and tasted like just a vanilla milkshake that smelled a little like mango. The mango pomelo sago was sub par. It’s advertised as having “real mango” but the “mango” tasted gummy and fake. It was also a bit icy and not super flavorful. For $8, I was definitely disappointed.

Minimum 18% tip option for Togo, can’t you tune the tip options? Do you really expect you deserve 18% tip for desert Togo?

Saw this passing by walking down the street waiting for an order from Stix down the block. Stopped in and couldn't pass it up. Got the original egg puff . So soft and yummy it was $10. They have a variety of toppings including boba

In need of an afternoon pick-me-up, I stopped by at this place and ordered the signature lemon burst with green tea and boba pearls. The tea was delicious, and the pearls were sweet and chewy. The only thing I wish they did differently was remove the lemon seeds, as I kept getting them in my mouth when I took sips and had to spit them out. Overall good option for fruit tea though.
