50 Best Bubble Tea near San Lorenzo

“Yummy food and great service!“

“it is small shop which touch screen kiosk to order near Oakland Chinatown. Practically you have to wait for the person in front of you finish their order before you get it. it might fit max 4 to 5 people. There are plenty option from the menu. You can choose sweet option.
The drink is pretty good. The price is reasonable.“

“Found this cute little cafe and decided to try it out. It did not disappoint! The interior was cutely decorated with cats and plushes. Got the Brown Sugar Crunch Latte and it was amazing! The cereal on top made it feel like I was eating cereal with milk while also drinking boba tea at the same time :)“

“Ordered Hojicha Tea Latte, really liked it. Selected less ice, still felt like a lot ice in it, but I guess that's normal for the industry now. Just would be more careful when drinking it while driving, during the dark, and/or wearing light color clothes, since I think the cup cap design is a little easy to cause spill.
Anyway, the drink itself is really good, will come back and try some more“

“I like their CM teas, haven't tried their other items yet though.“

“Came here with a friend and they had such interesting flavors! I got the plum tea with water chestnut boba and it was delicious 😋 My friend and I caught up for hours in the cafe and the owner/workers were so kind and offered us a mochinut! Delicious; so glad this place is nearby. Can't wait to come by again! :)“

“Gong Cha is always a staple of mine whenever I am looking for boba and they happened to have a convenient location near shopping and some good restaurants.

Note: Gong Cha locations use a non-dairy creamer but beware, these almost always still contain whey which is a dairy derivative. It's a common misnomer so always ask for non-dairy milk if you are vegan like myself or adverse to dairy products/have an allergy.

In order to get a non-dairy drink, I was told to order from the Fresh Milk Menu. I did so with my Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Oat Milk and it was satisfying overall. It is indeed quite sweet even with 50% sugar so I'd advise to go even less if you aren't wanting a completely sweet drink.

Staff were friendly and helpful.“

“my daughter love the shrimp lollipop 🤣🤣🤣“

“I had a great experience at Happy Lemon! While waiting for my order, I noticed a young male staff member thoughtfully washing his hands after handling money from a customer. It was such a simple gesture, but it really stood out to me and made the whole visit feel even more pleasant and hygienic. It gave me even more confidence in how they handle everything. And of course, my mango matcha smoothie was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavorful, and just the right balance of sweet and earthy. Will definitely be coming back!“

“I tried to get a sandwich here on a Sunday afternoon, and again on a Wednesday afternoon and it was closed both times. I’m not sure if this location is permanently closed…there’s no signage posted, nothing on their website, and neither location answers the phone. Bummer since their sandwiches were delish!“

“Stopped in at Christmas Eve as everything nearby was closed. Unfortunately I still had last minute shopping to do and got a caffeine headache.

The coffee was surprisingly really good. I definitely recommend this place. The two women who seemed to run it were incredibly kind.“

“I had no idea they have a MandRo Teahouse in Alameda but I'm glad it does. I normally go to the ones in Fremont and Milpitas so I know that people come here for Bingsoo (Korean shaved ice). Although it's using Korean name but I'm fairly certain the owner is actually Chinese. The shaved ice here is extremely fine and as a result super smooth and delicious. I prefer this over the coarse Hawaiian shaved ice.

My favorite is the matcha or original flavor but a lot of people seem to order the mango one.

This location seems to be much less crowded than the other places and has more seating as well. However parking can be a pain because of limited street parking and its location. You order through the kiosk and just wait for the number to be called.“

“Sunright is one of the better Boba spots in the Bay Area and it's definitely a must visit.

The quality seems to be consistent with their different locations.

I've had the opportunity to try most things on the menu but my favorite is the grape frosty, which unfortunately seems to be a seasonal item.

The menu is extensive enough to where there should be something for everyone as there are your more traditional choices, as well as, some fusion (East meets West), creative new drinks.

Sunright uses high quality ingredients, many of which are locally sourced in California. And yes, you can absolutely tell the difference! This is also because they don't cut corners and costs during the prep.

The staff is always on top of things and even when there are long lines, they always work diligently and quickly while maintaining the high quality standard.

The location itself is small, narrow, and it's pretty much a grab and go at the moment but the decor matches the theme.

If you haven't heard of Sunright, definitely give it a go and you'll be pleasantly surprised.“

“I went to Tapioca Express in Alhambra on Monday the 15th around noon. I ordered a Thai Tea, which is personally my favorite! I usually order Thai Tea ever where I go because I can't get enough. Haha, The two people that were helping me were Jo and Steve or Steven, I didn't quite hear the other employee name but it's somewhere along those lines. They were super nice! Right when I walked in, I was greeted with "Welcome to Tapioca Express!" It made me feel very welcomed, which is a feeling everybody should feel when they walk into a store. Since I always order Thai Tea, I just wanted to take a look at the menu and see what other options they had. They offered me other drinks but I had to stay with my usual. I liked how they were so patient with me. The Thai Tea tasted amazing! The sugar was just perfect! I will be coming back! Thank you for being patient and having a great customer service!“

“yo comiendo con un servicio para este cliente por sus seguidores y un servicio“

“I ordered the House Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Crystal Boba and I forgot to ask for no sugar, but to my surprise, it wasn’t overly sweet. It had just the right amount of ice, and the brown sugar crystal boba added a nice touch without being too much. There’s parking available for pick-up orders, which makes grabbing a drink quick and easy.“

“great place. got the creme brulee milk tea (25% ice, 50% sugar, +boba). one of the best i tasted, and im a boba lover so i’ve tried a lot of places. best boba place in fremont that i’ve been to. teaspoon used to be my go-to but i think i might switch to here.

only downside is the atmosphere was average, and the cushions for the seating area were kinda dirty, but i didnt stay for long so idrc lol.“

“The bingsoo is so yummy! People are so friendly.“

“SUPER DELICIOUS! :D This place is a bit hidden, but once you find it. You will love it! :D“

“If you are into Ube then this is the place.“

“Stopped by Truewin and had a really good experience. We tried two boba drinks, and both were good. We also got two desserts, and I’m not sure what they were called, but they were absolutely delicious. Overall, a nice spot and I’d definitely recommend it.“

“I like all the options, not syrup sweet - just right :) the appetizers are pretty good too. Open late too for those late night cravings.“

“It’s a Beautiful place the guys very Friendly and Nice costumer Service the Best Boba In the Bay Area. We loved and recommend ;they have a lot of flavors every fruit it’s Natural and the tapiocas so good 😊“

“Musubi Libre was a fun experience, $30 for 6 items and a coffee was a little steep for the sizes but the taste was on point. The Japanese egg was the moistest thing I've ever had. The owner greeted me personally and had a great attitude, keep on keeping on and follow them on “

“I love that Gong Cha is expanding their stores into my locality. Getting my favorite pearl milk tea had never been easier!“

“I had the pleasure of working with Natalie & Always Yours Bakery for our last wedding of the event season! Always Yours Bakery has the best tiny desserts, boba, and service! I was initially afraid that we had too many desserts for the guests; but everything was gone within minutes of Natalie setting up the dessert & boba bar!

From the beginning of the planning process, Natalie was responsive, kind, and flexible. As a wedding planner, it is so imperative that I work with vendors who are experts in their craft & get the job done, all with a smile and Natalie did just that. She kept me in the loop prior to the event, arrived on time, set everything up so beautifully, and provided delicious desserts! I especially loved her milk tea + boba; I had about 3+ cups by the end of the night. 10/10 would recommend Always Yours Bakery for a cute, unique, and delicious touch to anyones event!“

“非常好吃，超愛煉乳銀絲卷“

“I had the pleasure of trying the lox bagel sandwich at Fairway Park Donut Shop, and I must say it was absolutely fantastic! This hidden gem of a place knows how to make a memorable sandwich. The lox was fresh and flavorful, perfectly paired with a soft, toasted bagel. The combination of cream cheese, capers, and red onions added just the right balance of flavors. It's a harmonious blend that left my taste buds dancing with delight. The service was quick and friendly, and the ambiance was cozy. Whether you're stopping by for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, this place has got you covered. I can't wait to return to try more of their offerings. Fairway Park Donut Shop, you've won a fan in me with your delicious lox bagel sandwich. Highly recommended!“

“Ordering wasn’t easy. The online menu didn’t match the tablet in store. Spam musubi online is $5 but in store it’s $7.50. Online has brown sugar boba milk tea but in-store tablet didn’t have it.
We ended up ordering online, after they said to order online.

Ordering was painful but the food and drinks were great! Hopefully they can fix the ordering issues.

My son got the huge drink!! It’s a great deal if you like the same drink, $8.50 and you can share it.

Garlic fries and spam musubi were both great.

Parking can be challenging, it’s 3 hours free.“

“The cream brûlée milk tea is delicious! However, I wanted to try something new so I tried the coconut matcha drink, at first, I was nervous, but after taking a sip I was pleasantly surprised! The staff was also very friendly. 10/10 recommend.“

“standard drinks, i order the sweet potato fries, the staff is always really nice and treat me well - you can order at the counter or use the self-order kiosk for convenience (pictures, descriptions, tap to pay)

service is nice and orders come out in a timely manner thanks to the mom and pop that run this location, sometimes the cashier is a new trainee so please be understanding and patient, they’re just students

plenty of seating, ADA accessible

there is a public bathroom, please use it well and keep it clean

plenty of parking (street, garage)“

“The OG boba spot, a Union City staple. Been my favorite boba spot since high school and that hasn’t changed since. The drinks and the snacks bring a nostalgic and consistent comfort every time.

Shout out to the cashier lady who always remembers me and my order whenever I make a trip here, appreciate your service!“

“The restaurant only for the reason of speaking another language within it the employees take Gonchi out of you is Can by the hair also they steal your belongings we made a case for the police“

“Very professional and patient staff. I watched a difficult and aggressive customer try to intimidate the staff. They responded calmly, while still offering to help the difficult customer with an order.
I recommend people support this small business“

“Hay Tea is a delightful spot for a refreshing drink! Their bubble teas are perfectly crafted with fresh ingredients and a great balance of sweetness. The menu offers a wide variety, and the staff is always friendly and efficient. A perfect treat to cool down or just enjoy!“

“Great boba and croquettes. Strawberry+banana smoothie was perfect. Really pleasant and fine ice texture. The brown sugar boba was tasty and perfect texture. Also some of the pearls were cold enough to firm up perfectly, reminiscent of a frozen strawberry or other fruit. The croquette was cooked crispy and included katsu sauce, I think.“

“Delicious lychee and fruity teas served promptly in a small shop.“

“I work next door and i come in almost everyday to order a thia tea ice blended with a scoop of ice cream. Very nice kids that work there. I was getting a discount for working next door but not anymore for some reason“

“Great boba option to turn to here in Hayward that offers oat and soy milk as non-dairy milk options - a win in my book.

The shop is large with many drink options and snacks to choose from. You order from the kiosk in front but can ask the staff if you have any questions.

I ordered a Jasmine Milk Tea with Oat Milk and it was perfectly made. Highly recommend a lower sugar level since it's sweet as it is. They also did a great matcha latte that my sister ordered too.

Will definitely come back here the next time I'm in the area.“

“I live in Tracy and was craving bubble tea, my friend said that this is her favorite place to go to and she had a membership so we decided to go after church. There was somewhat of a line but it moved very quickly, a lot of people had the same ideas as us to come in for a drink. There was maybe four people in front of us but it only took about 2 minutes for us to get to the front, these workers move extremely fast and diligently. We ordered three drinks and my friend was able to get a reward which allowed her to get one free drink which was awesome. I had to take a few pictures in the store because I thought it was just so cute“

“Love this place good place for drinks“

“Great food & service. Highly recommended to all . Clean & pleasant ambiance.“

“im a brokeass student and everyday is a living hell for me because of the hotass weather plus my horrible grades😭😭

i went to QTea Bar for the first time and honestly - ITS NOT BAD FOR A PERSON WHO ONLY HAS $10 AT THE MOMENT LIKE ME.

basically, its a small place - however they offer a lot of items on their menu! the one on the picture is the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba, which costed $7 dollars (I DROPPED MY JAW AT THE PRICE, BUT ITS FINE I GUESS?)

i chose Normal sweetness level and was expecting a nice sugar level, but was instantly kicked with a flavor that felt like 10 spoons of sugar on my mouth😭💔

i suggest letting it dilute for a little bit and drinking it, because the sugar really was kicking me 🫩

im used to the “normal” amount if sugar level since im a sugar-tooth, but if youre an adult, i suggest 50-75% sugar - also the toppings (boba, etc) are $0.50 — which is an okay price

the employees are super nice, they only had 2 people working at the time i was there - so i believe its a small business run by them

overall; great service, nice menu, small place but functional!

5/5 in my opinion, if i were bias, id give 3.5/5, but they were kind :)“

“Very crafty, tasty, delicious boba drinks at a conventient Hayward plaza that has Cane's In N Out, Sprouts, Chipotle, etc...

The staff is very friendly and attentive. We were greeted right away and the cashier helped us order by answering all of our questions in detail. In the end I got a very delicious Dalgona Milk Tea Brulee with boba. I'll be coming back soon to try out more of their unique creations“

“Went here because we were in the vicinity and my daughter and her friend had an instant craving for Boba tea. So, my review of this place may not be complete having tried only a few sips I got from my daughter's boba tea (She took the Taro Milk with Boba, Popping Boba, and Coconut Jelly) but I loved the tea. Will come back to try out other stuff.“

“Polite staff, usually quick and efficient depending the time of day (they can get BUSY) but guess that shows how good they are. The cream brûlée boba is my favorite. They also have good food too if you’re trying to get a quick bite. Wish they had seats inside to eat/drink at but that doesn’t make me want to give less stars. Overall it’s one of my favorite boba spot in the east bay since I got here a couple months ago.“

“I ordered the creme brulee online for pick up. I came in and it was already ready but then I wondered why it looked different. I was just going to go with it anyway but they called me few mins later to say that it was the wrong one and they fixed it for me and even brought it outside to my car. Thank you! Appreciate it a lot“

“This place is a gem! I’ve been to Boba Nation a few times now and it’s quickly become my favorite boba spot. The variety on the menu is great there’s something for every mood, whether you’re into fruity teas or creamy milk-based drinks. Last time I got their strawberry matcha latte, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had.“

“This is my first time being in Alameda, California 94501. The drink was good. And the person who greet me and my boyfriend was nice to us. The wait wasn’t that long not to me. I like the music that they played. I ordered strawberry matcha latte with no ice due to me wearing braces. And I order strawberry shortcake for my boyfriend. And we both love it a lot. Overall it’s an A+“
