50 Best Bubble Tea in San Jose

“They have delicious boba drinks.“

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

“The seasonal flavours are great! I love coming here because the drinks are not only good but the staff are nice and let me bring my own cup !

Parking: Parking lot is a little small but we are always able to get a spot in the evenings“

“The only thought--holy heck is the large size large. It's not just large, it's gigantic--they're generous with the boba too AND it's literally always a custom drink where you pick the flavors you want, all for a bit over $6??? The exterior of the store itself threw me off a bit, but the interior (and the menu board) are pretty cool.“

“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 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.“

“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!“

“Great customer service and yummy“

“Cozy Tea Loft is a cute tea shop in West San Jose with a lot to offer. As a chocoholic, I'm especially pleased with the variety of cocoa drinks and with the fact that black (chocolate) cloud foam is an option. The crème brûlée in the Torched Series is also good. As far as toppings, I've only tried the Black Boba, and it was nice & chewy. A side note: as someone with a sweeter tooth, I found 80% to be optimal, so you might want to order a bit less than your usual for starting out.

As far as the interior, it is nicely decorated with some fun touches (how many tea shops have a claw machine?) But I think it could be made "cozier." I don't have issues or complaints with the service.

Overall, I hope to return to try many more of their delicious drinks.“

“Place has comfortable sofas, so it's a nice place to relax but not an ideal place to get your work done. Go in order 2 Oolong teas from the Kiosk. Yes, they have a kiosk. The Oolong bamboo is refreshing but lacks sweetness. The Peach Oolong was nice, definitely order that one next time.“

“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“

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

“I love this franchise, Either I've just been lucky or they're
actually consistent, because my usual drink is always amazing. For it being a smoothie, the employees are surprisingly quick. Every Macu location I've been to has the same great vibe.

My family's go-to is the King of Mango Smoothie, and it never disappoints. I've also tried the Chocolate Tiramisu, and that one is best when it's slightly melted. Trust me, mix in the cream topping well, be a little patient, and let the chocolate work its magic.

I can't vouch for their other
drinks, but my motto is why fix something that isn't broken. My usual is so good that I'Il literally go out of my way for it whenever I'm craving that mango kick or chocolatey goodness.“

“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!“

“Stopped by Tea Top after dim sum.

I ordered the strawberry green tea with boba. Tea flavor was ok, but boba was a bit inconsistent.

Overall, ok spot. Would be open to trying it again to see if it was a one-off issue.

Parking in the plaza can get busy during peak hours.“

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

“Used to go to the other TPTea location that’s much further away. I’m glad they opened this location, I love the drinks here. The milk teas have a strong tea flavor and the fruit teas are so perfectly tart and sweet! I recommend this boba stop, for sure!“

“Place is great, very clean. Owner is super friendly and he has the most cutest well behaved dog🐕The drinks are 💣🔥 and the names are as good as the quality 👌🏻 🗣🚧ONCE YOU TRY IT, YOU WILL BE HOOKED!!!
🤯 Never in my lifeeeee have I told a lie 🤥 this is the spoooootttt😭🫠🙏❤️‍🔥🕊️🔥🤯💨🥶🫡 always 🙏🙏🙏🦾🦿“

“Nice friendly top service, you could play board games with friends or family, students can do homework here to study, cold water is free, great milk teas, snacks & smoothies.

Five star; Thai Tea Smoothie, Berry Mix Smoothie, Avocado Smoothie, Watermelon Delight, & Mango Smoothie

Highly recommend

Kid-friendliness: This place is kid-friendliness you can watch cartoon movies here“

“I ordered the iced Jasmin oolong milk tea which came with cubes of tea jelly. I loved it!!! Not too sweet and the tea taste was perfect- not too strong. I love Boba tea and this place is in my Top 5. The iced matcha matcha green tea is amazing too. Very good quality matcha. You have to try it!!“

“most boba shops get horchata so terribly wrong i swore off trying one ever again but reviews here looked promising and it was actually pretty good! it has a very light flavor and they dont over do the sweetness like other places. if you want a drink thats not too sweet or heavy i def recommend the horchata smoothies (i got the coffee one)“

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

“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.“

“My favorite Jasmine Milk Tea 🧋 is here. I wish they had a punch card, because we got our whole house addicted to their simple Jasmine Milk Tea.

We can now order with the QR code they provide and get our drinks fast. I love the service and the team, they are always friendly, smiling and consistent with flavor for the Jasmine Milk Tea.

Thank you so much for continuing to provide quality service. Let us know if you get T-Shirts or other merch, we would definitely buy to support this local tea shop.

We even bought the loose tea to make at home. It's amazing!“

“My favorite is Salted Cheese Winter Melon with either Oolong or Black tea. They are so delicious.“

“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!!😘😘😘“

“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!“

“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“

“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 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.“

“Drink is good allot of choice I recommend“

“WOW!!!?? This is Definitely my New Boba Love Spot! This Boba Love is Hidden next to Huong Lan Sandwich in San Jose off of King and Tully Road. Plenty of Parking here. Definitely enjoyed the great Drinks, Milk Teas, Smoothies, Fresh Fruit Teas, and Yogurt Drinks! They are currently offering buy 2 get 1 free promotion so come check this place out!! I absolutely recommend Boba Love!
I love the unique flavors, Mouthwatering Snacks, Simple Decors, and The food here!!! I cannot wait to try some of these Snacks and food on my next visit back with my friends!!!?? “

“The chocolate vegan cake was delicious! Wouldn’t have guessed it’s vegan. Very light and fluffy. The “fish” sandwich was light and had good flavor, a few more fish pieces would have been good. The smoothie was fresh and creamy and the kumquat drink was goood and not too sweet. I’d come back for sure , it’s a nice cozy spot with seating inside and out. Fresh made vegan food“

“There are such mixed reviews for this place, but I needed to try it for myself and I was pleasantly surprised.

They serve quality tea with punny names, but their Roasted Oolong (Roast is History) was some of the best I've had in the Bay. Their fruit teas are on the sweeter side so would recommend 50%, but the Melon Rouge is quite good.

The interior is really nice with black leather couches in three separate sections, perfect for larger groups.

You mostly order on kiosks and they do offer DoorDash“

“This specific location is THEE best boba in the whole Bay Area ! When I go anywhere else to ask for a Taro and Ube boba drink I’m always told they “don’t “ mix the two or “can’t “ when I first came across this place I fell in love because they do the two flavors together and it’s just so perfect and refreshing and SOooo good ! The staff is always friendly and it’s so nice and clean in there . I still need to try more things on the menu but I stick to my go-to I reallllyyy want to try the ice cream !“

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

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

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😂🔥“

“Got the passion fruit slushy with strawberry heart jelly. Was delicious. Jelly was chewy and great and the slushy was flavorful and tasty. The claw machine was rigged, but what’s new. We ordered mobile but they only started making the once we got there.

Very hot ?“

“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.“

“Came today, love the popcorn chicken“

“It taste good I would come back again“

“Egg coffee 10/10 , must try!“

“I’m delighted they opened this new location! it’s super convenient. The workers are super quick and the drinks taste great LOL. I’ve tried a fair share of drinks and my favorites are still the classics heehee, Tropical Special (passion fruit green tea with coconut jelly and boba) and all the milk teas! Coco is one of my favorite boba chains! it’s definitely worth checking out 😆😆 i’m sure any drink you try will be good!“

“The drinks are delicious and the staff is amazing!“

“Quick, easy to order, you can order ahead. But since covid, only accepting debit or credit card 💳 but its okay“

“Very delicious food and nice place“

“I love Boba drink I recommend this to everyone so please visit Simpletea at Berryessa and also they have food to go only“

“Absolutely fantastic! Broth is rich and flavorful, the meat in the beef stew literally melts when you bite it. The spring rolls are spring rolls and super savory egg rolls. The noodles are cooked perfectly! The staff are attentive and friendly, and the restaurant itself is clean, inviting, and homie. I cannot suggest this place enough. Plus being just across from the hospital makes it a super accessible location. My wife REQUIRES we stop here before every obgyn appointment.“
