I ordered a coconut milk with pearls. It was a very good drink, but the next day when I finished the leftover, I realized the straw was plastic.I don't plan to patronize this business again until they switch to paper straw.Parking: parking is on the street along the curb.

Really good place! We had the signature lemonade with pineapple jelly, lemonade tea berry bliss and strawberry mango lemonade with pineapple jelly. All of them were absolutely fantastic. If you’re in the area give it a try. Recommended 100%

We came here for a break after failing to find a place to park at Lanikai beach. We'd just circled that neighborhood like 5 times and were tired, hot, and frustrated. We really just needed something cold, caffeinated, and we happened to be craving bubble tea. This place is located at the center of Kailua. There's plenty of street parking right across the street and there's a parking lot across the way as well if you tend to shy away from parallel parking. There were two reasons why I chose Bee & Tea - their boba and the novelty lightbulb-shaped drink containers. Unfortunately I only managed to get one of them because I couldn't figure out how to make the lightbulb fit in my luggage without crushing it. We ordered an original cold brew with boba and a coco taro milk tea with boba (both iced). Honestly I don't really remember much about the drinks themselves because I was too busy eating the boba which was really delicious. It was chewy and not overly sweet. It's hard to get boba just right but they definitely did a good job here. The cold brew wasn't very strongly caffeinated compared to most places. However, I did like how the boba's sweetness was good without it overpowering the bitterness of the cold brew. The coco taro milk tea was good. The taro flavor was strong and the honey flavor from the boba was very distinct in this drink. This place definitely has one of the best boba I've ever tried but, unfortunately, their drinks don't seem up to par in comparison.

The best BOBA tea on island with great service. This place was our favorite! Definitely a place to come back too

The Açaí Bowls are the best! So hard to find açaí that doesn’t have cheap fillers like banana in Kailua! So happy to finally find a place that has quality açaí with no fillers and so many awesome topping choices!

Stopped by here after a relaxing morning at Lanikai Beach. Expect to park on the street and if you need a restroom, there's a public one that all the businesses share at the back of the building. Don't forget to ask for the code to the door. There were a few tables inside if you want to relax, socialize, and drink your milk teas. I was not expecting great milk tea because I feel like they're not that common here. Or maybe I just don't know where to look as a tourist. We got the Queen Bee and Strawberries & Creme with Honey Boba. You have the option of green or black tea. The drinks were a good balance of sweet. Sometimes, drinks are still very sweet even with the adjustments made. Worth a try if you're in the area!

Absolutely adore this tea shop. I got a jessamine green tea with coconut. It tastes De-licious!! This gotta be my top milk tea flavor ever. The tea was floral and full bodied. You can taste the note clearly. The milk was creamy and carries the tea really well.Service was 10 star. They customer my tea for me since I wanted something specific that afternoon. No fuss at all. Very pleasant experience!

I was not expecting good boba but here we are! I'm so glad I stumbled upon Bee & Tea, because my drink was great! I got a lavender milk tea, and this hit the spot. The drink was perfect, the boba was perfect... *chefs kiss

Workers were friendly and service was fairly quick considering it was a little busy when we got there.

We tried the pinkerton and it was good! There are a lot of options - however, the only downfall was that every fruit tea included jasmine tea which sometimes can be a bit overwhelming with the floral notes. The honey boba was very delicious, I liked the honey taste to it! Would love to go back and try some of their milk teas!It was about $5.75 for a regular (24 oz) which I think was fairly priced - and the staff was very friendly!
