50 Best Bubble Tea in Portland

“Cute shop, friendly service, games.“

“Move back to Cali and every time I come to through Portland I make a stop food is fire 🔥“

“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. ❤😋“

“I got the half and half corndog with rice breading. The cheese had a great pull, sausage was flavorful and didn't have that processed hot dog flavor it was delicious. The breading was like a doughnut. I also got the garlic wings. They were huge, crispy, juicy, perfectly cooked and the sauce was delicious. My hubs got the bulgogi plate and ate it all with no sample bites offered. He said it was great. The kimchi had a kick as did the pickled diakon. His cleaned plate with nothing leftover definitely said he loved it.

The staff is wonderful, prices are fair and I will be back.“

“Nice place“

“The Alley Portland is THE BEST spot to come get drinks with your friends and hang out. The interior is beautifully designed. Its a bright and a very hospitable place. The employees are very friendly and helpful. The owner puts a lot of care and thought to creating the best drinks. I had the mango purple rice yogurt during my visit there. Definitely going to keep coming here and trying out all the options.“

“Wonderful bubble tea shop with a great selection of handcrafted drinks and tasty treats. The atmosphere is cozy, clean, and inviting, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a refreshing beverage. The staff are friendly, attentive, and provide quick service. A fantastic spot for quality boba, unique flavors, and a consistently enjoyable experience.“

“The best mango sago pummelo I’ve had in the portland area! Cute shop though a bit tough to access or get out depending on where you’re coming from. Ordering ahead works really well. Drinks are always ready as predicted.“

“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.“

“Tea Social Bubble tea was such a wonderful experience! The drinks were absolutely delicious, and I loved the wide variety of options available. There was something for everyone, and it was fun trying something new.

What really made the visit special was the incredible customer service. The lady working there was so sweet, kind, and welcoming. She made us feel appreciated and took the time to make sure we had a great experience.

If you're looking for tasty drinks, lots of choices, and friendly service, I highly recommend Tea Social. I'll definitely be coming back!“

“I visit this restaurant with my family at least a couple of times a month, and every time, I leave completely satisfied with both the food and the service. The food is always delicious, the service is excellent, and the overall experience never disappoints. If you enjoy Eastern cuisine, I highly recommend this place. Definitely worth a visit!“

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

“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.“

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

“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 .“

“The boba was absolutely delicious! I ordered the Brown Sugar Swirl with matcha, and it was so refreshing and flavorful. I also tried the salmon rice ball, and it was incredibly tasty. Everything was fresh, and I really enjoyed my meal. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“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.“

“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“

“Glad to have T4 opened close to my house, it's very nice to go here with just a few blocks, the drinks and the foods here are delicious, it's also opened late than other milktea shops, which is appreciated it! Because I can go out here and hangout w my friends late at night!..“

“The boba here is so fresh and refreshing. And don’t even start on the food I’m always dying to have the yellow curry, their sticky mango rice is excellent. It’s by far my favorite place to go, for dinner and especially lunch. Highly recommended!“

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

“We come to Boba Cat Tea House pretty often since it’s close to where we live, and it’s become one of our go-to spots for boba.

I usually get matcha, which has really good flavor. Last time I tried it with strawberry compote added, and it was super yummy. My partner usually gets tea with lychee and really enjoys it as well. When we get boba, the pearls are consistently just right. Soft, chewy, and flavorful. The brown sugar milk tea is especially delicious.

I typically order 50% sweetness, which is perfect for me, while my partner prefers 100%, and both options work well depending on taste.

The shop itself is very cute inside and a great place to hang out, though we often grab and go since it’s so convenient for us.

Overall, it’s a reliable, yummy spot we keep coming back to.“

“My partner and I have been meaning to try this place out for a while. We finally made it down yesterday (1/30/26), and it was EXCELLENT. I got the staff recommended drink (chocolate rose milk tea with strawberry popping boba); it was so good! I didn't hear what my partner ordered because I was reading the wall of community-written thank you notes, but his was a blended tropical something with jelly additions. That was super good too. Like, really super good. The staff were extremely sweet and I enjoyed our brief conversation (thank you for complimenting my coat! I wanted to compliment your makeup but I got flustered). 10/10“

“Had a lovely time ordering and waiting. When I was unsure what to grab the cashier gave suggestions & was very patient. Ended up with a nice thai tea (which I went in for) and musubi (did not go in intending to but very enjoyable) while I waited for my bus outside.

Also had a little water station and cups, overall good experience after a very annoying mixup with trimet.“

“My favorite breakfast spot in NE PDX! Love the Pandan Waffle Churn Breakfast as well as their specialty drinks. I had Ube Latte, Pandan Latte & Matcha Black Sesame Latte.“

“The best tasting bubble tea drinks !“

“This place is incredible! The staff, their food and drink, the decoration and atmosphere. I love all of it. I went with a few friends and tried lots of things, but my favorites were the Butterfly Pea Limeade and the Piak Poon! You also cannot go wrong with their Chinese Donuts and Pandan Custard 😩 I will absolutely be back.“

“I love this place! They also have another location in Beaverton that I enjoy, but this one feels more spacious and has a cuter vibe. The shop is comfortable, inviting, and a great spot to grab a drink.
I still have so many drinks on the menu to try, but I always end up ordering my favorite the strawberry matcha with brown sugar boba. It's delicious every time. I also love that you can customize the sweetness level to your preference or just leave it at the standard setting.
The service is always wonderful, and the barista who helped me was the sweetest! Friendly service and great drinks keep me coming back.
Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to! 🧋💕“

“Good food, nice folks. Tofu banh mi (1 with house special sauce, 1 with bbq) were delicious and filling.
Iced oolong tea with sugar was lightly floral and sweet.

Price was better than I expected for the quality and portion.

Can't wait to come back“

“Amy was great, we came in after dinner for some cocktails, and she definitely treated us right“

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

“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.“

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

“Cute bakery! Everything is really cheap and there’s a lot of different pastries to choose from. The cocktail bun and the cream bun were delicious. Not super sweet, which I liked. My only disappointment was the ham and cheese bun which was basically filled with air. There was almost no ham and cheese inside.“

“Excellent Service. Friendly staff.“

“Delicious food ever love the honey spice sauce“

“I come everyother day if not daily for a mango smoothie with lychee.thegal who makes my drink already knows what I want when I come in.. the drink is always good jus a bonus when the one making it is smoking hot and a sweetheart also..5 across the board..!“

“Andrea (ask her about the Romantic Fantasy she is writing) and Truly are wonderful. The staffing here is great and the products a satisfying guilty pleasure. Andrea is genuinely positive, while Truly was doing an amazing job juggling a multitude of orders. Keep up the good work.“

“What an absolutely handsome gentleman who helped me out today. I could not have asked for better service. Splendid coffee and rapid service. I couldn’t ask for better servicing from another person. This individual deserves a raise. Clean store and great location. Will be coming in again to see this fine young gentleman.“

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

“It's been getting really cold here in Beaverton and I decided to try pho for the first time. I tried the combo beef pho here was amazing! I have some allergies with MSG, so here in BEP there is no MSG in the food. My experience there was really good. With great employees and great service, I could tell that there were intention and care put into this place. Will be coming back soon.“

“I love the creations they have come up with !! The Flavors are Amazing & Delicious! And Lin was very nice 🤩“

“We don’t usually go to places twice when on vacation but we did here. A super cute place to hang out at night with a nice atmosphere. We brought some small card games, lots of people chatting or working. The tea selection is a lot. I don’t drink caffeine so I loved how many noncaffienated items there were. I loved the banana bread rooibos chai and got the loose leaf to take back home. They sell all their teas by weight if you like them. And have most of them out in jars to give them a smell before you order. The coconut chair rooibos was also very good.“

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

“I ordered a Brown Sugar Bobba tea, half hotdogs half cheese corn dog and donut. Delicious! If you haven't had a Korean corndog, you should give it a try. You can order a potato, Ramen or fire cheetoe coating and an array of dipping sauces.

The place is cute and clean. Not a lot of seating, six table and window bar seating.

One strange thing to note, they will not break a $50 bill even if you're getting $10 back in change. I can understand if you're only getting something at a dollar and removing a lot from the cash drawer but as a blanket rule I thought it was short sighted. This why I knocked a star. If you don't care about weird rules, give them a try.“

“Great restaurant when it's open. It opens well after OHSU's lunch rushes, which start at 11am, it would be better if they opened earlier so they take advantage of that daily rush. Food is great, lovely father son operation owners are very nice. Service can be a bit slow on heavier days, but quality is great!“

“My tea was great but it was a bad experience as a person who is hard of hearing.
The employees were very soft spoken.
I misheard a question and instead of repeating themselves to fix the miscommunication, I got a response that made me feel like they didn't want me in there anymore. I also didn't hear when they called my name (if they did? Again, I didn't hear) and allowed my drink to just sit on the counter until I looked up to see it waiting for me. I was the only one in the store at the time.

But on the plus side the Elegant Rose Tea is my new obsession, the perfect drink I needed for a lunch break on a super hot day!“

“I was walking over to it after work and nearly missed it but I’m glad I didn’t. Now I can’t really comment on their Sichuan food as I didn’t order it but their Mongolian beef was really tender. It was in my opinion perfectly cooked and so were the onions it was cooked with. The sauce wasn’t too thick or thin, it was really well balanced with a subtle sweetness and the right amount of spice. The cucumber salad was super fresh and not mushy at all. Had I gone with a friend this would have been a really affordable although by yourself the lunch special is much cheaper. Still I had a lovely time and enjoyed the music they were playing. Staff was lovely, and I’ll be coming back.“

“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.“

“Omg I loveeeeee this place. This is the only place with wonderful Jasmine milk tea, and they also have a strong milk tea they call Classic milk tea. If you need some caffeine to start a new day, this will be the perfect place to stop by. The staff are so friendly and care about customers, even though some customers are aggressive. Definitely coming back when we're nearby.

P/s: There are some limitations about parking during lunch and dinner hours, make sure you check in with staff before you get there.“
