50 Best Bubble Tea near Seal Beach

“Was visiting California for the weekend and thought I would stop by this nest little cafe. I order the Vietnamese Hot coffee which was absolutely delicious. First time having it and I was blown out of my mind. The lady working was very nice and informative. Found now new coded spot in Seal Beach. Thank you so much for great cup Joe!!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 ?“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Cute + Tasty + Instagrammable Japanese Donuts 🍩

This little shop is in the same plaza as BCD Tofu House. It’s a small chain that specializes in Japanese mochi donuts and milk tea/coffee drinks.

The donuts are really good, and the pink gift box packaging is super pretty, perfect for gifting! The inside is also cute, with a full wall of fake flowers and grass, plus a pink carousel 🎠 that makes it great for photos.

The staff were really friendly too and they even asked if we wanted some water and offered to help take our pictures. Restaurant is clean, too. Big bonus points!

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

“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 is a cute little place to bring friends and enjoy a drink. The beverages are delicious and are very refreshing. The prices are reasonable and the drinks come in a variety of flavors and sizes. There is plenty of parking and is accessible to all. There is a small space to enjoy a drink with a friend.“

“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!

“Nice vibes…………………..!!!!!!!“

“The drinks were very good healthy choice“

“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“

“1st time, but not the last!“

“Their menu was quite lengthy with tons of options including for the toppings. I got their Daydream Milk Tea, which was their version of milk tea with bold smokey tea with hint of caramel. I went for soy milk, which I thought went well as it let the tea flavor stood out strong. 30% ice and 4 out of 5 sweetness level turned impressive for me. I knew people loved their rich options of toppings including peculiar ones like black sesame jelly and black tea jelly, but I went for neither as I was in the boat of toppingless milk tea.“

“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“

“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 👌“

“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 ❤️❤️❤️“

“it was my first time & it was amazing“

“Great service and even better drinks! Crystal boba was amazing!!“

“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 !“

“I was in California for the Punishing Gray Raven x Boba Guys collaboration event. Altough I really enjoyed my time in CA overall in that only few days I could be there, my favourite place I visited was Boba Guys on Long Beach. Everyone was so nice, glad they had a bit of time to chat with me as well. Thank you for the memories, also the special drinks were the most delicious drinks I have ever tasted, I'm really sad that they were limited. Anyways, definietly a worth to visit place if anyone travels around Long Beach!

Greetings from Hungary!

“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“

“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“

“Tapioca Express is a solid spot for a quick and satisfying bubble tea fix, and more! They offer a huge selection of milk teas, snow bubbles (blended icy drinks), and fruit teas, so there's truly something for everyone. Beyond the drinks, they're well-known for their crispy popcorn chicken and other savory snacks like French fries and potstickers, making it a great place for a combo meal. It's a popular choice for a casual hangout or a study break, with generous portions and a wide variety of flavors to explore.“

“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 🥰🥰🥰“

“The best boba tea shop in OC❤️“

“Must stop by and visit now! They’re currently offering up to 50% off almost their entire menu! Limited time only!

Parking: This is Huntington Beach .. parking can be difficult. We got lucky with a spot right in front of the restaurant. It was metered parking with the first 2 hours being free. I noticed there was also other street metered parking across the way.

Ambiance/Environment: Very warm and welcoming. It’s very spacious with plenty of indoor seating and limited outdoor seating. Great for large groups.

Service: Shout out to our server Abril! She was amazing! She was very knowledgeable about the menu, refilled our waters when needed, and checked on us while eating.

Food & Drinks:

1) Burning Titan - This was recommended to us since this was their “must try” entrees. I had the choice of substituting the meat and noodles, but I decided to leave everything as is. This only came in one size, and I’d consider it a large bowl. They were very generous with the brisket beef and amount of ramen. The soup was definitely spicy and flavorful.

2) Kung Pao Chicken - My partner wanted a rice dish. I tried his dish, and this is definitely better than Panda Express! It wasn’t too spicy though, nor was it salty. There wasn’t as many peanuts as we thought. There was a good amount of chicken to rice ratio.

3) Crispy Wonton - I like their twist on the wontons because not only did it have cream cheese, but it also had avocado! The wonton was crispppyyy with a beautiful brown color. Though, I wish it had more filling of cream cheese and avocado. Don’t forget to dip it in the sweet sauce!

4) Thai Tea with boba - This wasn’t too sweet. The boba was decently chewy. The tea had a weird aftertaste, so I think they could work on this item.

5) Vietnamese Ice Coffee - I’m a crackhead for caffeine, so of course I ordered a Viet coffee in the evening. You know it’s concentrated when they don’t fill the cup up all the way. This is what I call a Viet coffee!

Pricing: I’d say it’s definitely worth its price. We visited while they were still offering their deals. Can’t deny a bowl of pho starting at $9.99. Especially in this inflation, that’s a steal.“

“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!“

“Everything is delicious there“

“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.“

“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.“
