Some of the best boba i’ve ever had. I loved being able to smell the little jars of tea leaves before choosing which one i wanted as a drink

It was my first time coming to Chapresso. I was really impressed that they used tea leafs to make the tea. The tea tasted great! They also had good service. The simple design of the place is inviting but the space is limited. However, they do have open sitting outside the shop.

In a region saturated with tea shops, Chapresso manages stands out. Make no mistake, they do not serve coffee or espresso, but their Matcha is among the best I've tasted so far, and I've had plenty. Perhaps a tad bit pricier than the average matcha tea (what's a few cents?) it is well worth it in a strong and robust green tea flavor and a smooth clean finish.
The shop's interior is smart and elegant, yet the staff is warm and welcoming. They recommended the Matcha Americano which has a deep matcha profile. I watched them gently sifting the powder, carefully pouring the water, and skillfully whisking the mixture into a dark green liquid, which they poured over ice water. They handed me an elixir that I will have to return for. Do yourself a courtesy and check this place out.

The jasmine green tea is high quality. I ordered it without sugar, but with honey boba.
I enjoyed their honey boba also.

Awesome spot to get tea. I got a milk tea, and it was so good even with less sugar. I didn't get any boba this time.

Not an ideal spot for working because there are no indoor tables. They have some outdoor seats with some umbrellas though. No bathrooms either.

The guy who brought out our drinks told us to let them know if we didn't like our drinks. They can make it better. Wonderful service! I didn't have to send my drink back though!

Parking is free on the street. You might have to circle around a bit or park farther.

Excllent service! The server was well-versed in tea. It's a relaxed place to meet freinds and explore various teas.

Tea forward milk tea. Iron goddess oolong milk tea is my favorite here and more roasty. Phoenix oolong is more floral.

Tea is fragrant and balanced but also strong. Chewy boba. Not too sweet! New favorite local boba place.

Whenever I visit this area, I cannot miss visiting Chapresso. Although it is a small neighborhood store, the taste of the milk tea at this store is truly on a different level from other milk tea chain stores. Instead of brewing the tea in the morning and the drinks are made after customer orders throughout the day; Here at Chapresso, after the each customer orders, the tea is made on the spot using their tea-expresso machine, making hot tea, milk tea (w or w/o boba0, and fruit tea. The customer can choose the ice level or sweetness. I personally like their Barley black milk tea with honey boba, regular ice level, 25% sweetness, so creamy and has strong tea flavor. I also enjoy their fruit infused tea. I personally prefer blueberry hibiscus fruit tea than strawberry. Ah, their Grapefruit fruit tea is so refreshing it is made from only 100% fresh fruit purees with no added sugars or syrups per Josh at the counter. I wasn't familiar with Corn starch-based straws but Chapresso uses it and it's work the same way as a traditional plastic straw. I quickly learned that when inserting a straw into boba tea, you need to insert it a little harder and faster, if it's for the environment, it's something worth putting up with. Everyone's tastes are different, and it is truly a very enjoyable luxury to order a cup of tea according to your taste and drink it yourself. I wish there was a Chapresso in my neighborhood.

First time trying this place this afternoon.The staff was friendly and provided some of the best customer service I could ask for. They offered to adjust my drink or make me an entirely new one if I found something wrong with mine. When I had a small spill, they were understanding and quick to help me clean up. I especially appreciate the little conversation we had while they were making my drinks. Great employees and people in general!For reference, I got two drinks. The first was their Blueberry Fruit Tea with light ice, regular sugar, and boba. It was definitely an interesting drink; it wasn't exactly to my liking. The second was their Mango Green Tea, with lychee jelly. I liked that one a little more, but next time I think I'll ask for more sugar.Overall, 9/10 experience! I will definitely come back.

I am so happy to have Chapresso so close to home! Their milk tea has so much tea flavor, you can definitely taste the quality! My go to is the iron goddess and my husband is obsessed with the grapefruit green tea. We have recommended this place to our boba loving friends and every single one of them has approved of this place!
