Ding Tea McKinney

Whoever was working when I ordered my drink took 25 minutes to make 3 of my drinks. PLSSSSS

This place has a wide variety of options. They also put rotating seasonal drinks on the menu. You order on 1 of 2 kiosks, which is cool, because you can learn all your options and may find new things to try that you didn't know they had. I love that!!! This was my 1st visit on 3/10/25. The place is very clean and they have a nice atmosphere. They even have plush toys for kids to play with! I ordered the signature milk tea with aloe vera and crystal boba. You can choose your sugar level. I did 30% and it's absolutely delicious! However, the aloe and crystal boba are sweet and the tea would have also been delicious without any sugar. I am very happy with my purchase and will be back!

One the best set of selections and quality for the small boba and tea shop I've seen.

Great drinks but they are understaffed, the wait time is ridiculous.

Love coming here and getting my boba tea or coffee boba ❤️ Staff is always kind and helpful to their customers.

One of our favorite boba stops! Everything we’ve had is delicious, and the staff is very friendly.

My family and I love Ding Tea! The staff are always friendly and courteous, and their drinks and taiyaki waffles are sooooo good! Can never go wrong with brown sugar milk tea. I love that they support Girl Scouts too. I was able to get cookies and boba, which are a great combo!

This was my second time. My hubby and I wanted a place to hang out and play card games and spent about 1.5 hours here. We brought our own deck bc they didn't have cards. The decor is nice but a very strong smell of cleaning chemicals hit us when we first walked in and I had a coughing fit for a bit trying to adjust to the intense smell. If you are sensitive to smells, be forewarned. In fact, we tolerated it bc it is so close to our house and we only had a short amount of time for a little date, but when I went home and got ready for a shower, I smelled the cleaning chemicals on my bra as I removed it. That's how deep the smell penetrated. That's so unhealthy to be breathing in. I hope management reads this and is willing to change to nontoxic fragrance-free chemicals to clean with.

3 stars instead of 2 is bc the milk tea tasted good. They said the taro milk tea did not have caffeine and they use dairy free milk, but I did get diarrhea a couple hours after which is weird because I have had Boba milk teas for decades (and I have not eaten new foods for a few days). The last time I was here back in July, I actually had food poisoning a few hours after trying a Boba drink here for the first time, but was hoping it was an anomaly. But maybe I should just avoid this place. It has good reviews so I trusted them... But I figured I'd leave this to balance them out for others that might feel similarly or in case this helps someone else.

Very good! Plenty of options and beautiful holiday decorations!

I love getting the taro here!

We love going to Ding Tea McKinney whenever we're in the area. Great, friendly service. Cozy atmosphere! Delicious drinks! Some of my favorites are: brown sugar milk tea, Hokkaido black milk tea, and taro slush! I want to try some of the Yakult drinks next time!
