46 Best Bubble Tea in San Jose

“The drink is good, but the boba is a bit tougher than I prefer. The main reason it loses a star is that there is absolutely nowhere to sit and enjoy your drink. There is a bar to stand by while waiting for your drink, but there are no chairs or tables. Pretty much you can get your drink and then leave. The surrounding area is also pretty bad to hang out in, it's just a parking lot and then a road that constantly has cars passing by at high speed, though that goes for all the stores in this area. However, the lack of seating makes this much more evident for this place in particular.“

“If you like Asian-style milk teas, boba, etc. this place is pretty good! My family and my brother’s family were at Home Depot across the street and wanted something to drink besides soda. Tpumps was across the street. There were sooo many flavors to choose from and the boba were prepared just right (not too firm or mushy). Good to know as I was visiting the area and past milk tea places I visited were just so-so. I’ll def go there again!“

“The place is Charming, the food is excellent, and the service is great.“

“Great local boba shop! The honey boba is incredibly tasty and the shop is quick to get out orders. They have a very cute rewards system set up if you're a frequent customer.

Super reliable, delicious, and a great mid-afternoon stop or post-dinner drink!“

“Drink is good allot of choice I recommend“

“This place is so amazing! The owner is here working and she is super friendly and definitely generous when severing ice cream from Marianne’s Ice cream! The root beer is the best flavor and I have came here a few times now and the place is always very clean and looks great inside! The sugar cane drinks are my favorite!“

“A pretty nice milk tea place with complementary Wi-Fi! It's pretty nice too How they're also open late night as well. Their milk teas are also reasonably priced and good quantity around $5 which for some reason it feels like the lower end as of recently... They got complimentary Jenga and you can also order stuff via fantuan or the iPad around, or you can talk to a cashier.“

“The drinks here are definitely on the sweeter side, but you can adjust for that. This place definitely saved me on a couple days when it was 100+ degrees outside. The frozen drinks with a scoop of ice cream are a nice treat, but most things on the menu are pretty solid here.“

“The cashier was kind and the place is nice and the drinks were really delicious and from the snacks I tried was also really delicious and better than most places I been to and I have been to a lot of popular places to eat and also other countries food and I prefer this than the fancy food I ate“

“Great place and very nice! I wanted to grab the Fruits Basket drinks and get my sticker! I would definitely visit again! 💜“

“This is te nicest n clean neat place I ever been ! And the drinks all fresh n taste so good I also order the Bao ribs and it's so yummy I love it! Please go n try this place I'm sure you will love it the service is great n staffs are very friendly with good smile!!😘😘😘“

“I asked for a coconut smoothie even though it wasn't on the menu. He said he would try and make it for me - he made a sample and let me try it and then adjusted the sugar level accordingly. Great customer service! Good price! I'll gladly come here again“

“I love the organic drinks from this place with no taste of artificial flavors like other locations. Their fresh boba pearls is so good and bouncy fresh taste.“

“The Croffles were delicious (we tried chocolate, Oreo, and ube). I got the kumquat green tea which was also delicious. The regular sweetness was perfect (not overly sweet) and had great floral notes. The person working also was really nice. I'll be swinging by again!“

“Tea Top is absolutely my Go-to place when I crave for a good boba milk tea. The location is ideal - close to my work office, easy parking. The service is always great. I want to make a special mention to Jackie their lovely staff. Jackie is simply amazing - joyful, courteous, professional and she makes you want to visit the store again!“

“Overall really good. Authentic boba tea, would definitely come again.

I got the Jasmine mango tea at 25% with boba. The boba was ultra soft. I really like that you could taste the tea but I think 25% was a little low because the Jasmine was pretty strong.. I would go up a % next time.

The menu had a lot of options, along with unique seasonal items.

Pretty decent parking in the back, inside was clean and they had two kiosks that were pretty easy to navigate.“

“Cozy little place with lots of options. Very clean“

“Most tasty avocado smoothies! They use legit avocados, which can be rare sometimes. Other places throw all ice in their avocado drink and smoothies so there is nothing to taste.

Macu staff take their time to make your drink and never rush with a messy job. They take care and time with putting your drink together, and you can taste it!! Staff are very sweet and friendly so supporting makes the experience better. I need to try more of their wide variety of boba and beverages.“

“Underrated place. Tried the patty melt sandwich here was an absolute banger. The taste and texture both were on point. The portion size was just perfect - left me satiated without feeling like I overate. Prices were great too! Definitely recommend the place.“

“The jasmine milk tea and watermelon slush are my fav! I love our smooth and fragrant their tea is!

Also the workers are friendly. The girlie working today was especially sweet! So attentive and had such sunny vibes ☀️ made my jasmine milk tea perfectly“

“I love this place so much I been going here everyday just to get away from my home lol ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ everyone that works here is very nice and very kind“

“We usually eat here and it is very good. The meat are fresh and the soup base is tasty unlike others“

“Great customer service and yummy“

“This milk tea place is really cute and welcoming. The drinks are good and refreshing, and the menu has solid options if you’re in the mood for something quick. It’s a nice spot to stop by for a grab-and-go drink or a short hangout with friends. Simple, easy, and worth checking out if you’re nearby“

“Oh my goodness! I just LOVE this establishment, alongside with the most attentive, hardworking and highly regarded staff that I have ever had the pleasure of being served by! I literally come out of my way during my work breaks for my tea fix, and that is saying something as I have been a tea entrepreneur most of my life. The quality of the tea, taste and balance are just wonderful while the above 5-star service adds to experience of enjoying my tea even more so! I am always served with a smile and the utmost care each time I am able to come! I am so grateful and joyful upon my arrival that not only am I aware that I will be greeted warmly, yet I get excited that even when a surge of business occurs, I am treated with high honors and even recommended other options to further expand my tea adventures! Thank you so much for all you do and know you are deeply appreciated for your hard work and patience in this line of work! ^·^/ A++...always good to the VERY last drop...heehee x3 !“

“The Newark location has great atmosphere, very friendly people, and boba always taste great! The Dirty Boba is fire....LITERALLY!!!“

“IMO Macu Tea is so underrated! I love the avocado smoothie they have here and that additional touch of tea jelly and mango chunks in the drink makes it so unique and tasty!

Another drink that’s good is the king mango, fresh mangos blended with nicely cut up fruits in it.

Great spot!“

“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.“

“I came here with my teen son for the first time...

This tea place is close to the Kaiser hospital which I'm grateful for..we can get our milk bobba teas down the street :-)

Staff were kind and patient with our orders..I ordered the strawberry rose matcha tea..its an odd mix but delicious..dont knock it til you try it :-)“

“The staff at this Tisane location really went above and beyond to embrace the spooky season!

I admit that I’m easily scared, so when I opened the door and was a bit spooked by the skeleton on the floor— Thankfully, nothing scary about the drinks! Those were refreshing & tasty as always.

We got the Blush, Matcha Vibe, & the Black Panther. The Matcha Vibe was just a touch too sweet, so I’ll definitely ask to lower the sweetness next time. But the bitter matcha did help to cut the sweetness a bit which was nice.

I appreciate how well kept this shop is & love the creativity they put into their menu items!“

“Good spot. I come here because the Sharetea in the area always had homeless people loitering around and this was a great spot during the Covid-19 pandemic that took care of business and customer and employee. I just stopped going after the business partnership with Bobatalks since the Bobatalks community was not really nice, friendly, or real. The Bobatalks leader was too ingenuine and it gave me slight trauma thinking about it when drinking from Teaspoon. I think that was a bad business deal partnership but otherwise the generous employees and drinks are all very good.“

“Knowledgeable staff helped me find a new favorite tea. Prices are a bit steep, but worth it.“

“I love Ding Tea House’s drinks because they are cheap and delicious. Moreover, the store’s view looks so nice.“

“Very delicious food and nice place“

“I recently got the Insomnia Latte and it tastes really good. The coffee flavor was nice and strong and I liked the sweetness of the coffee and matcha.

The cafe has nice vibes and they also had free lactaid when I was here, which was a nice touch.“

“Perfect weather to get boba today.
We also wanted somewhere cheap.
This place was suggested of having a deal:
Buy 2 and you get one free.
I called to make sure the deal was still happening and the lady on the phone said, Yes!

We got thai milk teas, brown sugar, and taro for the free deal, $16.95 for 3 drinks.

Taro milk tea was perfect. It wasn't too sweet even when i ordered 100% sugar.“

“Visiting from Vancouver and on the hunt for some good matcha! This place is amazing!! We got the earl grey and strawberry matcha. 10/10😋 the strawberry purée wasn’t overpowering and the perfect sweetness, early grey gave such a nice sweet kick to the matcha & the matcha itself is great quality. Highly recommend! Everyone at the cafe are so nice and welcoming too🥰“

“The coffee had a layered flavor that unfolded gradually, with smooth texture and inviting aroma. The bitterness was subtle, making each sip enjoyable. The staff was attentive and quick, adding comfort to the visit. The finish carried a pleasant sweetness that stayed briefly. Overall, a satisfying cup.“

“I love Teaspoon. There has been a couple new places with tea popping up around my house and I try them but always end up going back to Teaspoon since nowhere else seems to live up to them. They have a nice selection and they're fast and the people are nice. If you find yourself around the area and craving some boba...this is the place!“

“I had their unique matcha with salted cheese which was quite subtle but quite tasty. Great way to satisfy my matcha cravings on Christmas Eve. I also ordered the chocolate bubble waffle which was quite tasty although it wasn't quite cooked to perfection and did start to split in half from where the molds were pressed together. I was able to use my DoorDash credit for pickup here although everything is priced 50 cents more than ordering in person.“

“It taste good I would come back again“

“Good place to hang out with friends“

“fast and friendly service“

“Very easy ordering online. I picked up dinner at 7:30pm on a Sunday night, and there were still many families eating. Warm and convivial atmosphere. I've tried and enjoyed the pork vermicelli and the grilled pork plate. My friend had chicken pho. We were both super happy with our orders. Fresh ingredients and the perfect proportion of veggies to come w the dish. I find some other restaurants skimp here, but I really love how the pickled carrots and radish and lettuce balance out the grilled meat.“

“love thier smothies and teas“
