“I would highly recommend the black sesame with coconut filling birthday cake. It is so yummy and not sweet. Great and friendly customer service. I have ordered the same birthday cake two months in a row. This will be my Go To place for getting birthday cakes. Please support our local restaurants.“
“I would want to award this fantastic restaurant in the SF Bay region ten stars since the superior service makes me feel extremely warm, and this is the greatest spot to get real authentic Taiwanese cuisine in the East Bay!“
“Cafe 86 opened a location in Norcal, specializing in ube desserts and drinks. I usually order an upside down halo halo to share with friends. Delicious with traditional and modern toppings like ice cream, frosted flakes, and boba, it's a nice treat to share with others (or eat it by yourself to satisfy a sweet tooth). Seating is limited in the cafe. Would recommend if you're in the area.“
“This Castro Valley bakery has the CUTEST character macarons ever! Be sure to bookmark this place for your dessert needs! These treats are also available on Doordash! I am definitely recommending this place for any upcoming baby showers, birthdays, or other special events!We tried the below and loved all of it!* Dozen Variety Box of Macarons* Half Dozen Variety Box of Character Macarons* Strawberry Mango Fruit Tea w/ Brown Sugar Honey Boba* Assam Boba Milk Tea* Oreo Cream Puff* Fruit Custard Tart* Biscoff Cheesecake“
“Very yummy boba place! We loved what we ordered. I tried a macaron and a rice krispy treat and both were very tasty! My husband ordered a silky strawberry boba and I ordered a guava sunset type flavor. We both preferred the silky one! Very delicious! We loved the honey boba! Would definitely return if in the area.There is no tables to sit at it so you have to take it to go. Parking is easy to find as there is a free parking lot adjacent to the building.Parking: Easy to find free Parking lot next to buildingKid-friendliness: Kids would love this type of drink, but there is no seating inside“
“5/5 Love boba binge. They get my business at least once week. Love the milk tea and the Thai tea Meatball and egg is my go to bahn mi. Only complaint I have is sometimes they aren't open at 11 or even 12 on Saturdays. So the schedule is just kinda when they are open. Missed out on them a couple times because I didn't know when they would be open. Great service, great staff.“
“Tasty and delicious drinks at a bit of a premium price usually. Come from 1:30-3pm Mon-Thurs for BOGO happy hour, though!It's a popular place so the wait can sometimes be a couple of minutes with just 2-3 workers behind the counter.My go-tos are the Panda Milk Tea (I love my pleasantly chewy jellies and boba pearls!) and/or the Star Jelly Grapefruit Green Tea. I like to get everything with half sugar and half ice. :) I've never tried their creme brulee waffles before, but it smells absolutely heavenly whenever someone else orders one, haha.Chairs and tables have been well-used now and a bit dented and stained. More of a take-to-go place for sure!Luckily, there's plenty of free parking in this spacious shopping lot. :)“
“Look at that fresh, PACKED & beautiful rainbow Chirashi plate . This new addition to Alameda is a must try. There’s Ramen, sushi, bento and boba here, something for everyone! The fish was fresh, they do not skimp on portions. The prices are stellar too. The ambiance is modern with beautiful Japanese touches and a tasteful art piece of the Golden Gate Bridge that somehow all fit together perfectly. Happy to see large parties, couples on a date (seemingly) and then a family came in with a small toddler, the waitress doesn’t skip a beat and brought out a night chair for the little (whom happily ate everything the parents fed her. They shared the same Donburi plate I did plus another roll.) What a great restaurant, I can’t wait to go back. There were so many other sushi choices on Park street, I’m glad I tried this one today. Please come support local and give this place a try next time you are in the area.Kid-friendliness: Has highchairs for the littles“
“We came here due to the Maplestory x Sunright Tea Studio Collaboration :) the drinks that we got here were:- Green Slime's Ellinia Kiwi- Yeti's El Nath Coconut Frostie- Strawberry Frostie- Lemon Jasmine TeaAll (4) drinks were really good! The Green Slime's Ellinia Kiwi contained real pieces of kiwi which was nice. Yeti's El Nath Coconut Frostie had a subtle coconut flavor that was just right with the creaminess of the drink and wasn't overpowering. The Lemon Jasmine Tea tasted like something perfect for a hot day with its lemonade and honey taste, and the Strawberry Frostie was really good according to my daughter There were other drinks on the menu that I would like to try the next time we visit this location“
“My favorite boba stop. Wish it was closer to me.Someone recommended rose milk tea and I was very hesitant because I've had poupuri tasting ones previously. Yokee made it one of my top drinks!Also had a few other flavors and enjoyed them all so far.You can preorder online. They have an online ordering system in store anyway. Very tiny shop but friendly staff.“
“Good Boba place. The Boba drinks and fruit tea drinks are good. Only a little too sweet (I ordered 25% sweetness but it still was a bit too sweet for my taste so if you usually order 50% sweetness somewhere else, order 25% here maybe). What I liked the most was their cakes, I bought Tiramisu treasure and sea salt pearl and they were yummy! The chiffon cakes were very soft with the yummy toppings. The staff was very helpful also.Parking: Mall parking“
“I recently moved into the Fremont area and was pleasantly surprised when I found this boba spot so close to my home. the place is small and cozy. However the boba and snacks are spot on. The boba has a soft yet still chewy texture. You can taste the tea in every drink. The store offers online orders through toast which is convenient. Highly recommend if you are in the area for an unique boba place.“
“The boba drinks are delicious but we love the mango bingsoo from here even more. It's very comparable to the ones we've had in North Shore, Oahu. The snow ice is perfectly soft and doesn't melt quickly. The mangoes are super sweet. We appreciate the evaporated milk on the side and the extra mangoes and ice cream at the bottom of the bowl. Order using a kiosk inside. Staff is very friendly and costumer service oriented. The place is clean and perfect temperature regardless of the weather outside.“
“Tasty drinks. Their lemonade is really nice and not too sweet. Milk tea isn't overly bitter. I like their lids because you can reseal them by putting the plastic back in place. This is fine since I pickup from there, although for delivery I do prefer the plastic sealed tops you see from most places.They have a rewards program, its a good idea to sign up.“
“Super cute boba shop with floral walls. Service was a little slow but that's because there was only one worker. She was super super nice, even explained the different teas. They have specialty tea that's super popular in China. It was really good and perfect amount of sweetness (even at 100% sweet). Boba pearls were decent though.“
“One of my friend celebrated her birthday and this is her blowout celebration. Everybody got their own version, I got the Lamb Hot Pot, my wife got Japanese Miso, the celebrant got All Vegetarian, a couple shared Curry Beef, the celebrants husband got Beef Sacha and our last friend got Seafood Lobster Pot. The serving is generous and very good tasting hot pot soups, lots of vegetables and condiments. Very good for a winter December dinner. Everybody enjoyed their dinner and had an excellent dinner experience. Will visit again given a chance.Vegetarian options: There is an All Vegetarian hot pot soup that every vegetarian would appreciate and enjoy.“
“From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was inviting, and the staff's warmth and friendliness were truly refreshing. The attention to customer service did not go unnoticed, and it significantly enhanced my overall visit.Now, let me talk about the star of the show - the Strawberry Fruit Tea. It was an absolute delight! The blend of flavors was perfection, and I could tell that the ingredients were of the highest quality. The freshness of the strawberries and the balance of sweetness were exactly what I was looking for in a refreshing beverage.What truly sets Boba Nation apart, in my opinion, is not just the fantastic drinks but the dedication to creating a welcoming environment. The cleanliness and organization of the space added to the overall positive impression.I must commend your team for their efficiency and attentiveness. They not only prepared my drink promptly but also took the time to ensure it met my expectations. It's evident that the staff is passionate about what they do, and it reflects in the quality of service.I believe exceptional service deserves recognition, and I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience I had at Boba Nation - Hayward. It's establishments like yours that make a lasting impact on customers, and I will certainly be recommending your place to friends and family.Thank you once again for providing a memorable visit. I look forward to many more delightful moments at Boba Nation.“
“I love this place as it offers one of the best Selections of Sizzling plates.You may choose your own type of meat (chicken-beef-fish with a side of veggies) or add on an appetizer.I also loved their hawaaiian plate with BBQ galbi,rice and macaroni.My ultimate favorite here is Beef Kimchi sizzling plate, calamari,walnut shrimp and crispy chicken,mango green tea,basic crispy french fries, etc.But im not a fan of potstickers though.Plus this place is super clean,with a clean bathroom as well.Servers are very attentive and approachable.I will definitely try other snacks and dish next time“
“A new group share food experience -- Korean bingsoo with shaved skim milk, glazed mango and strawberry, condensed milk poured on top. It had a light fine texture and taste more simple, compared to Philippine halohalo with very sweet preserved fruits and beans mixed with shaved ice, ube ice cream and milk. Family shared two bowls with a side order of wings. Well presented light and cold dessert on a warm day.“
“Grateful for this new location in the 580 marketplace. everyone who lives up the hill no longer have to go that far for boba. I love the customization on dairy options, sweetness, and ice amount. The waffles are pretty good but other locations have expanded their menus to add savory snacks. I wonder when this franchise will add some because I can't wait to try. My favorite drinks are the milk tea oreo with salted cheese, mango matcha, & mango passion fruit. the boba and jellies are great. It's a small place, surprisingly i've never encountered a long line. The workers are nice and there's a self order kiosk at the front. This has become my go-to boba shop!“
“My friends and I bike here a lot, and for a good reason! The popcorn chicken is amazing, and they've got wonderful drink customization as well. One thing I recently found out was their seating in the back, which is so cute! Very quick service and wonderful staff. They did not get annoyed by us rowdy teenagers!“
“This place has the best boba tea ever in the Bay Area. I normally go for Taro Milk tea, they are just yum and perfect consistency. Even the staff is quite friendly. It's close to my house and I am going to be their regular customer in the years to come :)“
“This place is sooooo very cute and cozy .The service is Wonderful they even offered me a discount by entering my phone # the drink selection is great as well . Come by and see for yourselves we must support our small businesses so they can be successful. I got a free tumbler as well SCORE .“
“Came here on a Friday afternoon after I picked up the boys. Boys wanted some ice cream on a hot day and I had a craving for some boba. We ordered through the window. Kids got some Thai tea ice cream and I ordered boba. Everything came out very quickly. The staff here is very nice and courteous. If you guys are around the area and need something sweet please come by here and try them out“
“Ordered through the Snackpass app, so I could just pick it up directly when I get there. Worked out since the parking lot is an extremely small lot to the side, not a big plaza. They have two designated parking spots for U Cha customers, but the first time I went, both were taken, so I parked on the other end temporarily. Their classic milk tea is pretty good, I would get it again if I was in the area! The honey boba was soft and chewy, I don't have any complaints on the pearls. However, I would not recommend getting a hot drink from here. The cups for hot drinks are not the best quality and the lid keeps falling off, so unfortunately I had spilled some of my drink on my car. The chicken katsu sando, I highly recommend!! It tasted better than I expected! Compared to katsu sandwiches you can get from like the Asian market, U Cha's is definitely better for about the same cost. It's got a nice crispy outside and juicy inside. I would definitely get it again. Their Tokyo fries were good, however spicy mayo is just not a flavor I personally like, so next time I would just get the fries by itself.“

“We were in the area and searching for a boba place when we found Smoothie and Wings on the map just off East 14th. S&W has a huge dining area with two separate rooms with tables and chairs.We ordered a couple of drinks with the matcha and mango recommended by the workers. It was tasty and we were extremely happy with the $1 upgrade to their super size. We definitely come back again when we’re back in the area.“
“staff is very friendly and efficient! love the fun concept mixed with tasty traditional noodles. I got R2 and the soup base is delicious; combined with all the toppings that come with it, it's a very filling meal and worth the price. store is clean, has different seating styles, nice lighting, and overall great atmosphere.“
“Sharetea is an old reliable when satisfying any boba craving. They have many locations and my family stopped by this store after a family outing. The server Andrew was very kind and patient in explaining some of the top drinks. He also made our drinks very quickly. I ordered their Classic Black Milk Tea and added sweet creama for extra creaminess. I would definitely come back to this location for their above average drinks and amazing service!“
“This is one of my favorite tea/boba places. They have a great variety of drinks that you don't see at many other places. It's a small place with no indoor seating. You order on a tablet and the staff make everything in a timely manner. I tried the egg pancake for the first time and it was delicious. I loved that it is shaped like a boba drink! My go to is the mango pomelo sago because it is the perfect combo of sweet and tart. I definitely recommend anything from here though.“
“Three favorable things caught my attention at this restaurant. One, I was pleasantly greeted by the owner when I walked through the door. Two, the portions were very, very generous. And three, there were NO peas in the fried rice. Don't get me wrong, I love peas, just not a fan of peas in my fried rice...I'm the one who annoyingly picks them out. There are two styles of Chow Mein, I chose the thin noodles and not because one looked better than the other...I just wanted to get my fill of the other goodies in my box.Parking: A few spaces in front; shared parking with 7-11 convenience store.“
“Visiting this spot occasionally for boba is a delight; there's always a crowd, a diverse menu, and we tried the Okinawa milk tea and crème brûlée Boba milk tea. With so many tempting choices, I'm eager to explore more options next time!They reduced seating by closing off most of their establishment, and it’s a quickIn and out experience.“
“Got an oreo cheesecake smoothie and korean bbq fries which were both delicious. Server offered boba and I said sure but they still forgot to add it lol but I didn’t mind. The music was super loud? Otherwise the atmosphere was cool. They have games to play which would make a nice hang out.“
“Shop has been open for the longest now, i used to come browse gamestop knowing that the next stop was for a frosty tapioca drink. Is usually the popcorn chicken lvl 7 for me, I really love the crispy kale. That spice has a very particular kick that sticks, but it gives it good flavor.Vegetarian options: For drinks mainlyKid-friendliness: Oh yes of courseParking: Is part of the shopping centerWheelchair accessibility: Of courseDietary restrictions: Yea“
“They have a hidden service of Chinese pancakes here, it's soft opening today and IT IS DELICIOUS!!!! I asked the staff, they said the Chinese pancake is ONLY available on Friday and Saturday!! Will definitely come back again ：)Vegetarian options: Thr Chinese pancake is vegetarian and could be customized to be egg white ONLY WHICH IS AWESOME???“
“WHEN: Sat @1:30pmWhile everyone was outside for the Wine & Arts Festival, we took cover for some refreshments to cool off. It's my first time at a Happy Lemon, so I figure I keep it simple by ordering:E10 - KUMQUAT LEMON w/LYCHEE JELLIES - $6.25Wow, so refreshing! I think the secret ingredient is the salted dry plum, which I didn't expect to be in it! I love those, and I think it enhances all the wonderful flavors! This was so good and unique!This shop is pretty cute, well air-conditioned, with a couple of chairs and tables to hang out in. Not a busy time, but perhaps because it's during a festival.“
“Deciitontet this new spot out. They have lots of options online menu and 2 kiosk to order yourself inside. They also have catering options. I tried the pizza samosa which were good and spicy. Not pizza flavored they have a nice Indian taste but spicy so not really for kids but delicious. Smaller than most Samosas about the size of pizza rolls. The lamb gyro was tasty and I enjoyed it. No fat on the meat it was thinly sliced had lots of meat. They serve drinks, smoothies,juices,bowls,salads,soups, sandwichws,gyro, really everything. The juice was refreshing and all natural veggies and fruit. No sweeteners unless upon request. I was also gifted a tiny chocolate pudding to try. It was really delicious and fresh my daughter enjoy it. I'd try something different next time lots of choices.“
“I stumbled upon this place a couple of months ago. Close to home and comparable to tasty pot. My brother likes boiling point the best but I have yet to try. I usually get the #11 with the Taiwanese spicy soup. My mom likes this place because they have stinky tofu (fried/with soup). The waitress that works there is really nice and attentive. Big portion except for the rice and vermicelli noodles. I never had to wait for a table and the price isn't too bad.“
“Only thing to complain about is the lack of a chili oil, and a fly that was just so attracted to me. I really like the cube meat they gave me, I genuinely really liked the cube meat. It's perfectly proportioned and it actually has flavor to it rather than just filler meat. This place is alright, I respect the simple sign they have for the place.“
“Ordered a chocolate Oreo mochi donut and a Crème brûlée boba milk tea.The mochi donut was decent quality and very presentable but the flavor and “mochi” parts just were not there. Top top that off, they don’t carry just a plain mochi donut, which is what I really wanted. The price at $3 is reasonable for this type of donut.The crème brûlée milk tea was quite delicious and I would definitely order it again. Keep in mind that this drink is sweet! They pre-adjust sweetness due to the cream so I could not order less sweetness. You are not allowed to make adjustments to the drink, as noted on the board. I appreciate that my receipt indicates that organic milk was used. The price at $7.25 seemed a bit expensive for a 16 ounce milk tea, but it wouldn’t stop me from ordering it again.This shopping center is typically always busy and parking can be challenging, but doable. The restaurant had several tables to sit at but the atmosphere could be more inviting. The girl that took and prepared my order was nice and professional.“
“This Ding Tea is located in Downtown Alameda. This area is pretty busy most weekends and weeknights, so parking is hit or miss - it is mostly street parking or you can park in the parking garage nearby, but you have to walk a couple of blocks over. I wished that they did not close down their other location in Newark - it was more convenient for me to go there because there was parking. There is much of a welcome or any service, but it is a boba shop, so no high expectations - plus, my drink always comes out decently quickly and it is fairly good, so no major complaints.They are usually pretty good at answering the phone for orders, but on this particular visit, they did not, so I had to order inside when I arrived. No worries though because there were only 2 other customers in the store and they already had gotten their drink, so I ordered and got my drink pretty quick. I ordered my usual - the jasmine green milk tea with boba. It has a good cream/milk to tea ratio like always with a good sweetness to it. They serve golden boba as their boba, which is not the best, but it is decent - it is not my choice of boba compared to the other shops though. I am glad that they went back to their regular see-through cup, instead of the paper cup - this may be weird, but I do like seeing my boba as I am enjoying my drink (plus, it is definitely better for photos when you can see your drink and toppings).“
“If you have a good palate you’ll like this place more than a lot of other boba places. The flavors are more fresh and natural than places that use a lot of artificial flavors and cheap mix-ins.Parking: Big lotKid-friendliness: SureWheelchair accessibility: Enough room in the lobby“
“Quick service on a late night, super spacious to hang out with friends and get some work done! I'd like to try a few more drinks before I rate how consistent they are, but I really liked my matcha with purple rice! A bit overpriced for the cup size IMO but popcorn chicken was good“
“There are lots of good options for food menu and drinks at this T4 location, but I always stick to my favorite - Takoyaki and Elegant rose royal tea. Their egg puff and Popcorn chicken are delicious as well. They tend to get busy in the afternoon but service is fast and the staff are friendly.Parking: just a minute walk from free parking lot“
“Absolutely delicious. The Calamari was amazing although I wish there was a dipping sauce. The crab app was my favorite . The chicken and salmon (main dishes) were very good. Service was excellent as our server was always replacing our water A bit odd location but when in town, I would definitely go here again“
