50 Best Bubble Tea in Portland

“Cute shop, friendly service, games.“

“Great tea, great service, nice atmosphere“

“love visiting this boba place! the guy working here (Jack?) is always so kind and will go out of his way to provide excellent service. i always get the classic milk tea which is super yummy! hope this business thrives for years to come 💖“

“We ordered 2 pho orders togo. Prices are good, portions are good, pho broth is good, place is clean and friendly staff. The only thing that I really wish that was better was the brisket, it was thin, dry and tough also the tendon was a little tough compared to Pho Hung and Pho Oregon, it usually melts in your mouth. I would of gave it a 5 stars if the meat was tender. If the chef could work on not overcooking the meat then this would be my go to spot.“

“Yifang is an excellent franchise chain across North America - glad to see Portland got one.

They have probably the best quality, and best tasting steeped teas as their bases compared to any boba chain or shop.

And the fruit add-ins always taste and feel great.

Adjustable sugar and ice is a must.

The real, Taiwanese hibiscus flowers (roselle) placed in the drinks are awesome.

Highly recommend for a boba tea experience.“

“the service was excellent I ordered the Royal fruit tea ( tropical) the flavor amazing it had fresh fruit in it. My granddaughters got the strawberry milk tea with mango bubbles in it. I will definitely be going back soon . Go check them out .“

“Want out of this world bubble tea/coffee drinks? Best place to go for surprising combinations!!!!!“

“I would recommend thai food truck. It won’t disappoint you. This is thai street food style very authentic. So yummy and the owner so friendly. อรอาหารอร่อยมากครับ แนะนำให้ไปอุดหนุนกันเยอะๆ เจ้าของร้านเป็นกันเองมากๆ ขอบคุณสำหรับอาหารไทยรสชาติเยี่ยมอร่อยๆ ครับ“

“lots of toppings! nice environment, easy parking!“

“One of the easiest five star reviews. Persons who works there has been unbelievably kind each time I walk in. They not only remember me, but always ask how I am. I love smoothies and their smoothies are not only super tasty but really reasonably priced! Boba there is also fantastic, which I sometimes have with my smoothie. Highly recommend!“

“Nice little high end food court with craft beer, cocktails, ramen etc.“

“If you need a good brunch spot, Churn Cafe is your spot! I ordered the bacon kimchi hash and it was FIRE! I also tried the Ube French toast and it was literally like eating a pillow! But it was very sweet, too sweet for my liking so if you want savoury I recommend the kimchi hash!
I also tried the mango matcha and it was the best matcha I have ever tasted!
My sister in law got the Benedict which unfortunately for her was cold :( so stay away from the eggs Benedict.
But other than that it’s in a cool part of Portland and the food was DELISH!“

“Absolutely amazing shop. It’s my go to coffee shop when I’m on campus.“

“Excellent Service. Friendly staff.“

“My husband and I love grabbing their kumquat sugarcane drink! It’s refreshing and a healthier option 🌸 We live about 40 mins out and will do the drive sometimes multiple times a week. They have great customer service and are fast! I’ve also had their coconut sugarcane and their avocado w boba. Delicious! A plus, they have the best ice, pearl 😍😋“

“Definitely the cheapest Jello Shots in town but I think they might also be the best. $1.50 a pop with flavors like Strawberry Shortcake, Pink Starburst, Margarita, and Cherry. Each one made with different liquor.

A couple of tvs showing sports or whatever you ask for.

The shopping center also has some amazing food if you take a look around!“

“I love this bakery! The food is delicious, there's a huge variety, and everything is very affordable. The people who work here are really nice, too! I love coming here to get a light breakfast. Also, the hongkong milk tea is really good; not too sweet, which goes perfectly with the pastries.“

“Food was fresh and fast. Exactly as I ordered and tasty.
Service a bit distracted and impersonal but they were in lunch rush so I understand a little bit. Space is bright and clean.
I would go back and recommend to friends.“

“I recently dined at Sichuan Taste, and it was an unforgettable experience—in the best way. From the moment we walked in, the fragrant spices in the air hinted at the bold flavors to come. The restaurant had a warm, bustling atmosphere, and the staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

We started with the spicy wontons in chili oil, and they were phenomenal—delicately wrapped, perfectly cooked, and swimming in a sauce that delivered heat with flavor, not just fire. The mapo tofu was a standout: silky tofu in a rich, complex sauce with that signature numbing kick from Sichuan peppercorns. It was everything I hoped for and more.

Another favorite was the dry-fried green beans—crisp, savory, and just the right amount of salty. Every dish we tried felt thoughtfully prepared, with generous portions and vibrant ingredients.

If you’re a fan of authentic, fiery Sichuan cuisine, Sichuan Taste is a must-visit. Just be ready for some serious spice! (Pro tip: order the jasmine tea—it pairs beautifully with the heat.)

Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5)
Would definitely come back to explore more of the menu!“

“Nice place“

“These guys have the most amazing Boba Tea selection and exceptional customer service. Their drinks have the perfect balance of flavor punchiness, creaminess, crunchy surprises, and their boba pearls are made in house right in front of you. Our fave is the classic Taiwanese Boba Tea. ❤😋“

“Our first time here. Open space high ceiling and the beautiful painting. Gotta have that Hohaido Black Milk tea and surprisingly those Popping Bobas. Staff was friendly and quick service. Wonderful experience there and got some great family pictures too.“

“My favourite place for tea and coffee that I've found in Portland so far. A great little spot to grab a snack on campus between classes, and the store has some really lovely teasets, keychains, and books for sale as well! My favourite is the green tea mocha!“

“The food was amazing the prime sweet and spicy chicken is my personal favorite so far along with there taro milk tea which is absolutely amazing by the way the staff was so incredibly nice I messed up my order and they where so kind to clarify the difference between the prime and the normal sweet and spicy chicken and where just super nice and I love the whole look of the place I am definitely going to visit more often“

“What a great place for boba drinks. It is located in a newly developed area. All drinks appear to come with many slices of lime wedges. If you are a lime lover, this place is for you.

We had a custom drink with Thai green tea, lychee flavor and jellies. The other drink was from a pre-made menu. Both drinks are quite sweet but they were just right if you let the ice melt a little.“

“Delicious el pastor! Friendly and fast service!“

“IMHO this place grew way too fast and they weren't completely prepared for the onslaught on demand. Accuracy, service and cleanliness have suffered, not terribly, but noticeably. I have confidence these issues will be figured out, addressed and solved and as long as they are well capitalized, and don't try to be all things to all people, they will continue to be a great addition to the community.“

“This is best shaved ice on the west side! I love the mango since it has both fresh slices of mango and mango jelly. The staff is always friendly and helpful.“

“Food here is great! I've been to 3 different T4s and this place probably has the best fried squid out of all of them. The basil chicken was alright and the portion size was pretty big. Drinks were as expected.

What I like about this place is that it is much bigger and they offer a wide range of food options that are actual meals. My favorite is the squid. Not too small, nor too big and have a good flavor to them. The chicken was much bigger, less crunchy and a bit bland. Overall, this place is great and I am satisfied.“

“I absolutely love this place and genuinely enjoy supporting this fantastic local restaurant. The staff is incredibly friendly, the space is clean, and every dish I’ve tried has been fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. But the real standout? Their bubble tea — it’s easily the best I’ve had. Creamy, perfectly balanced, and simply addictive. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Highly recommended!“

“We love Braganza! They serve the best bubble tea and smoothies! The team members work very hard, and are always cheerful and welcoming! The chai smooth tea is fabulous, along with the milk tea and orange cream. Add-ons are included in the drink prices, and sweetness levels are adjustable. The delicious cold drinks are refreshing year-round!“

“Tried this bubble tea shop while on a day trip to Portland and was pleasantly surprised. They had a variety of drinks and some food items and sweet treats for a quick bite. My order of watermelon iced tea and iced raspberry white mocha were refreshing on a hot day“

“Excellent Pad Thai Burrito! Our daughter’s favorite version and portable in burrito form!“

“Fresh and super friendly boba shop with no extra charges that turn your boba stop into a mortgage payment (never go to @Bobacat down the street. The prices listed for some drinks are higher in their system and they just smile when confronted with the extra hidden charge 🫠) I come here 3-4 times a week and it’s solid. I just wish there was a way to tip their hard working employees when using tap payment. Minus one star for that. Shame.“

“My friend and I walked to Bobacat Tea House our first night in Portland from The Hotel Zags and fell in love with it, it’s Cat Polaroid Wall—how do I get my cats on there—and their drinks! I grabbed some milk tea and loved it! I wish I had one back in IL!“

“I've been disappointed with every other Bobablastic food truck I've come across, but this one was actually pretty good. The employee was fairly nice, got me my drink quickly, and was generous with the mix-ins. They're a bit pricey for the quality of the drink in my opinion, but they're still a good option if you're craving some bubble tea in the area.“

“Great bubble tea, great staff, mellow vibes. Next time I need to try the Banh Mi. 👍🏻“

“Ordered a couple blended honey tapioca boba teas, mango and watermelon flavor and they were both so tasty. Best tapioca I think I’ve ever had. Fresh, soft..perfect!

The service was fast and friendly. Definitely recommend a stop by.“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“We stopped by this store after having lunch at Din Tai Fung right across the way. There was only one employee working, but she was quick in making our drinks and very polite. I enjoy bubble tea a lot, and to me, they often taste pretty similar, so I especially appreciate good customer service at boba shops, and this place delivered.“

“Absolutely fire food. I got the basil fried rice, pad Thai, crab rangoon, and Thai coffee. The staff were super kind and helpful, I got great service. I honestly haven’t had pad thai, crab Rangoon, or fried rice this good in years. I don’t live in the area and options for any type of Asian food are limited at home, so I often try new places when travelling. This place is getting saved in my bookmarks so I remember where it is next time I’m in town.“

“Very yummy 😋 they have a lot of different favor n very nice service“

“Ive worked at a boba shop for over 3 years and I thought I was sick of it… but this happy lemon exceeded my expectations! Super good drinks, i know blended drinks are a pain to make but they truly are the best on the menu!! Not to mention there was only two workers when i came in and it was getting a bit busy and they handled it so well! The gentleman taking my order was very friendly and knowledgeable and the young lady was making all drink orders super efficiently. Will definitely come back whenever Im in the area“

“For my first time, this place was great.. i am definitely coming back.. its good..“

“This boba food truck hit all the spots for me. The server/maker was the nicest person in Portland that we encountered, the honey boba pearls were perfect chewy/melty consistency and our teas were so tasty without being overly sweet. I ordered a blended matcha lavender and my daught ordered a honeydew. Well done, 5 stars, highly recommend.

Parking: There is a parking lot across the street, you have to pay if you stay longer than an hour.“

“Got a small pot of Guyusa tea last time I went and read a local magazine from a table. Well-brewed teas, variety of seating, and nice view out the window. I loved the teapot and option to choose cup/mug size, too. However, it is not wheelchair or disability accessible; there is a long flight of stairs to reach the cafè.“

“This resteraunt is close to OHSU down on the water front. I was waiting for my husband while he was having a small procedure and found this place about a block away. They have a unique selection of poke bowls and other sushi and Bento selections. I had the Bbq Unagi poke bowl which was very fresh and tasty.“

“came here right before it close. but the service still very welcome. the waiter doesn't seem to might about providing service. I ate mi quang, too hungry for taking pictures but definitely recommended.“

“Review changed:
A couple years ago I gave this place 1 ⭐. Since then they've made a lot of improvements... Walled eating area with plenty of seating. Not sure if it's heated but better than other stand alone food carts. Books to read. Cables and outlets to charge devices. Plenty of parking (you just need to go up the driveway). Staff went out of their way to make my visit special. Prices are great. I ordered the shredded pork ban mí (which was filling by itself), got a free hot tea (think Lipton), and only paid $7!
There may be a language barrier but it's worth it because you'll love anything you get.
I look forward to coming back.“
