50 Best Bubble Tea near Seal Beach

“Coffee, Frappuccino, Milk Tea, Specialty teas, Hot chocolate, Chai, Matcha, Taro, Smoothies, Sweet or Savory Crepes served up in a smiling family owned atmosphere.

A small storefront close to the beach at the corner of Ocean and Main, my favorite moment was walking in on the previous customer, complementing them in how nice and service oriented they always are.

Walkup. Often strolling with your takeout along main Street. Two narrow tables with six seats in front of Marina Cafe.

Had a banana Nutella crepe and espresso to dine in yummy. Enjoyed it. Solid 4 getting the +1 for quaint little family owned stop in downtown Seal Beach.“

“I've tried the Fluffy Matcha Milk Tea and Aiyu Honey Lemon Tea. Both drinks were delicious and the sweetness was just right to my taste. Highly recommend!! <3“

“I’ve tried their Mystic Ube Matcha, Guava Grape Bliss, and a Peach Slush that’s no longer on the menu, and they were all delicious. I really like that they use fresh fruit, and when paired with the lowest sweetness level, the drinks turn out perfect. The staff are friendly and have recommended and fine tuned our drinks many times!

The shop itself is pretty small with no real indoor seating, so it’s definitely more of a grab-and-go spot.“

“Saw the ad on Facebook and coincidentally found the place today. I ordered the pineapple and strawberry drink which had yakult in it. It was such a pretty drink and very enjoyable. Fast service!“

“this is a shop co-founded by a Taiwanese-American (ABC) and a social media influencer, offering a variety of creative snacks. Examples include Pineapple Bun Fried Chicken Burgers, Mapo Tofu Cheesy Taro Hash, Walnut Shrimp Burgers, and Hainanese Chicken Tacos—sounds so unique!

For milk tea recommendations: Try their lactose-free oat milk series and matcha fresh milk. All ingredients are carefully selected—featuring Taiwanese tea leaves and Japanese matcha—with no artificial additives. Perfect for health-conscious crowds to give a try!“

“Excellent milk teas and snappy service. My discount coupon was lost but they gave it to me anyway. kudos“

“The lady was super sweet that helped me with my order. I got a taro milk tea before class and it is one of the best i had. The cup is also super durable and the prices are fair. I will be returning after my wisdom teeth surgery to try the popcorn chicken. Whatever was being cooked smelled really good ?“

“Being Taiwanese, I had high expectations trying Gong cha for the first time, and oh boy they delivered, no kizzy! Milk tea was authentic and on point, and the assortment of jellies and boba added that finishing touch. Really thought I was back in Taiwan for a second. Wonderful.“

“We recently ordered two boba drinks from Bobuzz, including their signature “PMC” with boba and “The Dark White.” While the overall flavor of the drinks was comparable to other quality boba shops, the tapioca pearls (“boba”) were unfortunately undercooked, which detracted from the experience. Additionally, offering customers the option to customize the sweetness level would be a welcome improvement. While there is potential, the overall experience left us with mixed feelings. Personally, it wouldn’t be my first choice for a dessert stop after a pleasant meal, at least not for now.“

“I came in on 12/27 around 2pm and there were 2 guys working ( Anthony and someone else I didn't catch his name tag)They were dealing with a crazy customer who was yelling at them, talking down at them over a small upcharge they didn't want to pay for. They took care of the rest of us in line while still handling her which I really appreciate. They didn't deserve that treatment and still kept a smile on their face. They kept a good attitude despite someone being rude and entitled!“

“First time ever been here. I love the lovely decorations for Valentines coming. I got B2 Fresh Lemon Black Tea with Mango Boba and Lychee Jello, highly recommend for this drink if you are tired of milky/creamy boba. Service is friendly and patient!“

“On the way home so stop by this place to try it out. So impressed by the Teapresso, the aroma of the shop, the act of brewing one cup at a time. Definitely worth the money! The cup is full of tea and boba, just light ice and perfect amount of sugar! Will come back whenever I’m in OC.“

“Nice vibes…………………..!!!!!!!“

“It was really nice place and had great food! Enjoyed my time there as well!“

“absolutely wonderful!! service was so great, all the workers were so kind and friendly!! went in with my little brother and we got the oreo iced w black sugar boba and i got the strawberry green tea w passion fruit popping boba and black sugar boba. SO SO YUMMY!!!! worth the price/ was not bad at all for a boba shop!! the decor inside was amazing- love the flower walls!!! it was decorated so cutely for halloween!!! thank you again for being so awesome!!!“

“Decided to try their Strawberry Ice Blended with Lychee Jelly and Ice Cream. Sweetness was not overpowering, and it was good for a hot summer day! Wait times were average with maybe a five minute wait at best. You can either order at the counter or with a self-pay kiosk. There are seats on the inside.“

“The drink wasn’t overly sweet, just the right balance that hits the spot.

The owner is awesome and the service is quick and friendly. Definitely recommend purchasing their reusable glass jar so you can get a free topping every time you bring it! 👌🏼“

“The drinks were very good healthy choice“

“Cocoa cream wow 🤤 es delicioso 😋“

“I got the Four Seasons (a white tea) milk tea, which I think is my new favorite tea base, with 75% sweetness, large boba, regular ice, and creme brûlée pudding (I thought I would get something I don’t often see as a topping). I am so happy with this drink! Service was fast and easy, I ordered on a kiosk and the drink was called out within 5 minutes! When I mixed in the pudding and boba, the drink was super sweet (which is what I wanted, but next time I should probably get 50% or 25% sweet or not get the creme brûlée pudding, to limit myself to a more reasonable sugar intake). The boba was perfectly chewy, on the softer side, which is what I prefer, with good flavor, and there was a generous amount. The creme brûlée made the milk tea taste like vanilla ice cream and caramel were mixed in. Soooo good. Thank you for a nice dessert stop! The shop is small but very cozy with a few seating options. Side note: I was happy to hear Now or Never from High School Musical 3 playing over the speakers when I walked in. It warmed my gen z heart.

After looking at other reviews, I also wanted to add: You can order using one of 2 kiosks, or with a cashier at the register. There is also a QR code for the menu, and a printed menu near the register. The employee called out our orders when they came out.“

“This was my first time here. The shop is super cute and the Passion Fruit green tea was🔥“

“1. The tea was refreshing with a good portion of fruit bits!
2. The spot has fun casual vibes with high ceilings!
3. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! It took less than 10 mins!
Note: There is a restroom available for customers!

“My favorite boba place close to where I live. I love their creme brulee drinks and the boba pearls are actually really good here. It's usually pretty empty so we get our drinks quickly and it's really calm in there. There's decent parking outside and they even have mini bahn mi sandwiches that are pretty good as well“

“The inside is really spacious and open, lots of natural light. I would get this place 4.5 stars because half of the items I wanted weren't available. That could be on me for going in on a Sunday afternoon however.
I liked the barista, friendly and she had a really good recommendation since I wanted a Vietnamese coffee and they didn't have the concentrate available. I would go back again.“

“Great boba! I ordered the Brown Sugar Matcha and one of their signatures, the Hokkaido Milk Tea... The matcha was delicious and the brown sugar was a nice subtle twist! The hokkaido milk tea was a bit sweet for me but otherwise very enjoyable. In the end, I think the matcha was my favorite“

“Very good drink- to my expected- Flavorful and not too sweet! I’m not a big fan of boba/milk tea in general, but I think I’m starting to liking it. Thanks chị Ivy @Cha2cha ❤️❤️❤️“

“Amazing donuts and coffee. We drive further than our closest donut shop to come here.“

“My favorite place for kumquat lemon iced tea with crystal boba. I love the vibe when you walk in is very peaceful and relaxing. They also use fresh fruits so you can taste it instead of too much syrup. Would recommend !“

“Such a tasty and refreshing treat! Wonderful and friendly service. I usually enjoy hot tea over cold but they have converted me! House tea and lychee hibiscus are a must try ��“

“Visited OC and was looking for a place to chill. We found this place and tried their taro and winter melon milk tea, as well as their mango fruit tea. It wasn’t bad. The only thing is I think their AC is not working.

Parking: First come first serve“

“Everything is delicious there“

“Tasty! Drank signature and jasmine on promotion occasion. Golden pearls are delicious! There are many types of tea that I have drunk in Vietnam and all find them fragrant and worth trying. There are a few tables to sit back or buy to go out. Price is also not too high. There are few employees, so during peak hours, wait about 15 minutes“

“Good service and better Boba!

I was in the area and in the mood for some boba and stopped by and I'm glad I did the girl behind the counter named Jane did an amazing job helping me . They also have a bunch of different soups and ramen meals!

Would recommend and return 👌“

“Really good milk tea and unique toppings that are made in shop. The black sesame topping so good and the first time I’ve come across it. Many of the toppings are low in sugar which is nice. If you have a good palette for tea, this is higher quality than almost all the other boba shops. The caffeine content seems higher most milk tea, in that I actually notice it.“

“it was my first time & it was amazing“

“I tried most of the drinks and they are all sooo good but my favorite is the Chamango … it’s too die for. I’ll recommend it to everybody 👍“

“Love this place customer service is great,food is great and not that pricey!I truly would recommend :)“

“Close to home - easy commute - friendly shop, weekend frenzy - good for business“

“The boba store is not really busy since I visit at lunch time. But have to say that their drinks come with love and cares. The drinks are good as I tried some of them include the teas, milk tea and slushes are unique.

The customer service is only average since they have only one server, so mostly we ordered on the self-checkout instead, so no comment on that.

But this place is a germ for sure, you guys should give it a try“

“I dig their slogans!
My car is on autopilot at this location.
I tried their milk tea & squid balls. But it's their Taro milk tea that keeps me wanting more! Can't wait to explore the rest of their food menu 😋 😊“

“Soooo delicious!! Ordered to-go & took us a little over 20mins to get home & surprisingly my Shaved Iced dessert was still frozen! Very satisfied with how everything tasted. I ordered the Green Tea Snow with Oreos, Strawberries & Popping Boba combination. I loved it. I also ordered the Pistachio & Matcha Green Tea Macarons & the Milk Tea. The Pistachio Macarons & Milk Tea was delicious. Definitely recommend. (Didn’t get to try Jesse’s Breakfast)“

“Muy bien atendido y muy buenas vividas 🥰🥰🥰“

“I swear God this is the best place to get a Smoothie with Boba omG 🥹🥹🥹 sooo good!!!! 🧋😋 The guys who serve are so kind ❤️ I will return as long as possible 🤩“

“The mango slush boba was awesome!!!Boba Time has got you covered! Whether you're looking for classic flavors, creative flavors, or just a great time, this Boba Time has got it all. Location is awesome and conveniently located next to Walmart. The boba is always top-notch, and the staff was ready to help navigate the menu. Watch out the boba is so delicious, you may never want to leave!“

“Best Apple Fritters in town hands down! They also make mini fritters with crispy goodness all the way around. Just ordered 3 dozen for a Celebration of Life to honor my father, and they were a hit. His favorite go to in the morning was a fritter and coffee.“

“Came here with my friend and the drinks were solid. I got the Osmanthus Tropic and Thai Tea for my friend. Solid Thai tea flavor and quite standard.Their fruit teas are way better though. The Osmanthus Tropic was flavorful and fruity with a deeper tea flavor. I got it with crystal boba. Id recommend this!“

“Love their tea with different flavors.“
