It was my first time here and my experience was really good due to the fast service and delicious drinks. We ordered on the kiosk and got called for our drinks within 5-7 minutes. The ambiance is nice as there's seating in the back with comfy cushions and mirrors surrounding the area. The mango mochi drink was pretty good, but would probably only get that during the summer when mangos are in season. The mochi barley burst was so nutty and the popping barley topping was a really good addition. read more

Never heard about this place, but glad I got to try it! My favorite drink to look for at boba places is the White Peach Oolong Milk Tea so I knew I had to get that! My boyfriend got the version without milk and we tried both for comparison. Our order was accidentally made without ice but upon reading other reviews, we're glad we didn't. We asked for a cup of ice on the side and poured that in after. I loved how it was not too sweet and the boba was a nice touch! Definitely liked the milky version more than without milk, but on a hot day both versions were pretty good. Speaking of hot day, not sure if the ac was on or not but it was hot! With this location, you'll need to walk in to find it. read more

3CAT Handcrafted Beverage - White Peach Oolong Milk Tea (Left) and White Peach Oolong Tea (Right) with Brown Sugar Boba - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Tustin, California

LOCATION: The District in Tustin toward the AMC side PARKING: Lots of nearby parking lots WHAT WE ORDERED: * Roasted Oolong Milk Tea w/ Boba ($6.50) - Pretty solid! A little too sweet still, even with the adjusted sweetness, and that sort of took away the roasted tea taste. * Avomango Sweet Dew ($6.75) - Tasted exactly what it sounded like - an avocado/mango blended slush. Give it a good mix so you can get the perfect blend of the flavors. I thought that it did have more of an avocado taste than a mango taste. I would recommend finishing it as soon as you can so it doesn't turn into liquid. * Mochi Barley Burst ($6.50) - I didn't know what to expect from the mochi, but I appreciated the subtleness that it added to the drink. Every sip had bits of the mochi. It was a tougher texture than boba and the bits are small. * Mochi Matcha ($6.50) - A yummy blended matcha drink with the small touch of texture from the matcha. I loved their interior! Super cozy and cute with all the cat figurines scattered around the shop. Drinks came out surprisingly, really quickly despite the long wait. There is a television screen that displays the orders, and you can easily track your progress from there. I would recommend trying their mochi drinks because it's a little different from what other tea shops have to offer. It's the perfect place to grab a drink after watching a movie, eating dinner at the plethora of restaurants in the vicinity, or playing some games at the claw machine spot a few doors down. read more

Tried out this new boba shop at the Tustin District! We went for the Avomango Sweet Dew as it's their most popular item. Absolutely delicious! The smoothie consistency was thick but smooth. Loaded with mango chunks and jelly. You can taste the quality of the ingredients. We opted for less sweet which was the perfect level of sweetness for us. We loved the drinks so much that we came back today and got a second helping of the Avomango Sweet Dew! Also picked up a Mango Mochi to try. The Mango Mochi is very creamy and loaded with mango chunks. Also a very good drink! 3Cat is our newest obsession. We'll definitely be back again soon! Staff is great and the drinks are quality for about $7 per drink! Make sure to use the Snackpass App to order ahead so you can skip the line! read more

Drinks were not bad but I haven't find anything that I like from here. Cute decor. I love the cat theme

The key is to get the right itemssss. The mango avocado dew and mango mochi drinks less sweet were purrfect! I loved the mango and ?mochi bits. Mochi/ricey bits were actually softer than mochi but just as delightful. Drink was creamy and a little rich, so I may try 50% sweet next time (or not, we shall see, hehe). Service was quick and straightforward. On a separate occasion: the peach seasonal drink on the other hand (at less sweet) was just okay, a little icy, and I feel like I could have made it in my vitamix. So go for the popular drinks. My friend also liked the barley drink. read more

First time trying this place and wanted to see how it was. First impression coming in was good as it was semi-cat themed. Ordered the Grape Pear drink and it was delicious. You can taste the distinctive grape flavor and the crunchy pieces of pear. The mango dew was very creamy. The staff was busy working in the back with the large amount of orders they had. Only issue was the stupidly loud music they had playing in the store. It was very distracting and took away from the enjoyment of the drink. I would come back again for the drink, but I would not sit inside the store. read more

We went here this morning around 11:30 and there was a decent amount of people in front of us but our drinks still came out relatively quick! The staff were also very friendly! I got the Lime Explosion with Osmanthus Tea Jelly! The drink tasted great and was refreshing! One thing I would change is I would get it less sweet next time because regular sweetness was a little too sweet for me. read more

I think about the mango mochi drink way to often. hahahha TBH i'm not a boba girly but a mochi girly??? ME! I get this drink with the minimal sugar option and to me it's still sweet. It's creamy, mango vibey and the perfect combo of textures and flavors. It's also a cute spot in general but definitely can get busy. You typically order from the kiosk but I think sometimes they take orders at the register as well. read more

I rec- avomango sweet dew(normal sweet) and mochi barley burst (25 sweet) 3CAT is a fun tea shop with unique toppings like mochi, barley, and soybean mousse! Everything was yummy but was sweeter than I expected (I'll go lower sugar next time) Mochi was similar but fluffier than sunright mochi, barley was popping but chewy treat, and soybean mousse was thick and sweet and slightly nutty My experience: I went grand opening week so the line was out the door but their service was on point- I liked how there was a screen to see received order and in preparation orders and you get a text message once your orders ready! Plenty of chairs and tables inside but I feel like the vibes are better outside with the nice breeze or the lights that come on at night at the district! Note- if you haven't parked at this district before it's just big lots on both sides and you have a walk a bit to find it but it's easy :) read more

Really enjoy the drinks at 3Cat! There's plenty of parking at The District in Tustin, so it's really easy to get to. The line can be long depending on what time you go. When I visited, the line was out the door, but the wait wasn't too long. The shop is also very cute with lots of cute little cats all over the place! We ordered the Icy Peach and the Floral Black Milk Tea with boba. The Icy Peach was my favorite. The white peach flavor is really strong and really yummy (they say there's 4 whole white peaches in the drink!). It's a very refreshing drink! The Floral Black Milk Tea is also very good. The floral hint is nice and the tea flavor is good. Their boba is a bit on the harder side, so it's not my favorite in terms of boba texture. read more

Located in the movie theater side of the district so plenty of parking. There's restaraunts, a new claw machine arcade, and of course movie theater making it perfect for a simple date night or for kids. Quite popular as it's the first chain location in this area. Inside is spacious with a few tables and outlets, but limited seating for current popularity. They were having a bogo deal on opening weekend. Pricing is on the medium tier side but reasonable (similar to omomo). I got a mochi barley burst- tea flavor not too strong, there is actual barley flavored popping pearls and the mochi is a nice thicker chewy consistency. You can adjust the sweetness and ice, but no substitutions for toppings ( additional price to add topping). I got 25% sweet which was perfect to taste the flavor. Avomango sweet dew I got less sweet. They don't really tell you the ingredients, but it didn't seem like there was honeydew? Avocado flavor not too strong, but creamy. Its a smoothie drink so get 100% ice, did less sweet and it was still sweet (bearable). The bottom is super ripe Philippine mango so you get some of the fibers/ that slight tang of mango when you sip. Cashier at the moment was fluently bilingual in chinese and english ( seems popular amongst native chinese), wechat ordering is also available. Drinks for the high volume took okay time like 10-15 minutes. There's a lot of workers, so probably more d/t equipment. They have a special this week until 9/1 but unfortunately free gifts only for the first 50 guests and I'm a working woman QQ. Overall felt like the drink quality was good and they had a wide variety. Can't really say much on tea flavor as I didn't try their basic drinks. Would come back :). read more

New boba cafe has appeared in The District so I couldn't help but try. As soon as you walk in, you find yourself in a dilemma of either going with the self check-out or order at the cash register. I decided to interact with the clerk and learn more about their drinks. The clerk kindly explained their popular items and recommended based upon my preference, which was helpful. I understand that these are handcrafted beverages but I thought 20-30 minute wait was pretty excessive. They do have an area with chairs and tables. However, thankfully, this cafe is located in a mall that has lots of places to shop so I walked around The District until it is ready. Obviously, if this is your first visit, you go with their top choice so I went with Mochi Barley Burst, which came with handcrafted rice mochi and barley popping boba. I usually like fun texture in my food and this was a perfect drink for me as the barley popping boba looked exactly like barley and the pops every time you chew on the boba is pleasant. Also, the mochi was very soft and delicate, which was a great combo with the boba. read more

Recently used a $5 off coupon on the platform and ordered two drinks for pickup. Scheduled the pickup time in advance, and surprisingly, the total was under $5 -- super cost-effective! About the Environment: The store has a nice atmosphere with more seating options than many other bubble tea shops. About the Drinks: Amber Honey Golden Latte The name sounds gentle and comforting, and the price was very reasonable. The taste was impressive -- rich tea aroma with a hint of caramel, smooth milk, and just the right amount of sweetness without being overpowering. Mango Mochi Ice Blend & Mango Pomelo Sago These were ordered on separate occasions for my daughter. We've been enjoying little "deals" lately! The fruit flavor is authentic, ingredients are fresh, and the icy texture is perfect for the California summer. -- Overall, I'm quite impressed. In Irvine's competitive bubble tea scene, this place definitely deserves a spot. Looking forward to going back! read more

Stopped by while walking through The District and saw that they had some unique drinks from other boba shops. You order on a kiosk and they give you a wait time to come back. Like many other reviews, the quoted wait time is significantly longer than what we actually waited. It said about 20 minutes but the drinks were ready in about 5. I got the Mochi Barley Burst and it was really tasty and a fun drink overall. There are big chunks of mochi which adds a fun big chewy texture. However I'd recommend making them a big smaller because once you get a big piece stuck in your straw, it was very difficult to get out. I also really appreciated the barley boba pieces. Bursting each one was a fun experience and I just loved the drink overall. read more

Tried the mochi barely burst and mochi mango and both were really good! The toppings are very unique and drinks taste super fresh not overly sweet. Downside is that it just takes a while to make the drinks and it can get a bit crowded but there is searing available and cool stores to check out next door while waiting. Glad i finally got a try 3Cat and i've been back since ! The barley drink is my current go to ! read more

Tried the Avomango Sweet Dew -- kinda interesting but the mango and avocado didn't mix well for me. Loved the Golden Amber Latte, super fragrant and not too sweet. Rice Frost tasted a bit like rice wine, not my favorite. The shop's really nice and spacious though. Nice staff and drink make fast. read more

Stumbled upon this place since I went to AMC to watch a movie! The line looked so long I almost didn't want to wait but glad I did! The line went by super fast! When we got to the register the girl working was super sweet and welcoming! We ordered and it took about 10min for us to get our drinks!!!! I was thinking it would take longer since so many people were in line! The seating inside is pretty good! We were able to sit down while we waited! The drinks were very tasty as well! The Mochi Barley Burst was different than what I've had but it was good! My niece enjoyed her Mochi Mango! It was all around 5 stars! read more

Their drinks are always hitting, definitely a reason why they always pack. However they never lacking on working hard to deliver our drinks on manner time. Ambiance is always with pressure since its always pack so it make sense. read more

I visited 3Cat on a weekday night, and it wasn't busy. The cafe has a cute atmosphere, and I liked that there's a screen showing how long your drink will take. Mine initially said 23 minutes, but I actually got it in about 6 minutes, which was a nice surprise. I tried the avocado smoothie and the oolong milk tea. The avocado smoothie was creamy and supper yummy, and the oolong amber milk tea had a solid tea flavor. read more

My latest obsession!!! Obsessed with their mango mochi, less/minimal sweet. Their mochi isn't like ball mochis or solid, it has a slight chew with texture that's almost whipped. It's definitely unique and I've never seen anywhere else have it. I've also tried their avomango sweet dew and although it's good, I'm not into it like I am over the mango mochi. You can order there in store on the screen or you can order online, but they super overestimate the time it'll take to get your drinks so it's a pleasant surprise when they have your drinks ready so soon after ordering. Clean and bright store with minimal seating indoors. However there are plenty of outdoor seating and things to do surrounding The District. Friendly service when interacting with the staff. read more

Found this boba shop while walking around the shopping plaza and it is a gem. Came when they just opened and even though it wasn't busy inside but they had a lot of online/phone orders prior so there was a 10-15 mins for our drinks. The menu is pretty extensive and I love my drink because the tea was strong wish there was a bigger size read more

This place definitely gives off the vibes of a wushiland, but 10x better imo. It's very spacious, but the seating is very weird where you can really only sit on one side of the table. The drinks were pretty good imo. However, I didn't know my drink was going to be a slushie which is my fault for not asking, but it isn't explicitly said. I don't enjoy slushies too much, but if you do then the mochi drinks are good. My friends loved their drinks as well so maybe next time I'll get a tea and it'll be better for me. Overall a fantastic experience. read more

I wish this place was closer to home! This location is one of my favorites, they have a few indoor seating as well as some outdoor lounge area. There are also plenty of things to do at this plaza. The staff were helpful, and they have 2 kiosks available to place an order. Once you order, they have a screen which tells you how long is the estimated wait will be and they will text you when your order is ready. This place by far tops any boba place I've gone to that serve mango drinks. I've tried the Mango Mochi and the Avomango Sweet Dew and they're both refreshing on a summer day. The mangoes were very sweet and reminds me of Philippine mangos. It was perfectly sweet but you can also adjust the sugar level to your liking. Highly recommended and worth the drive!! read more

Wow! First time trying 3CAT and I'm already craving it again. I got the mango mochi drink. It was the perfect amount of sweetness and I loved the texture that the mochi added to the drink. Service was pretty quick (I came on a Saturday afternoon) but I heard that the line can be pretty crazy at night. There's plenty of parking in this cute plaza. Lots of other food places to try as well. Overall, I'm thrilled and hope to be back again soon!! read more

Great tea flavors and love the option of ordering online and ability to customize the type of milk in addition to the ice and sugar levels! My fav toppings here have been the agar boba, mochi, and osmanthus tea jelly. There are so many boba tea options in OC, but 3CAT stands out because of how tea forward their options taste, and because they have some unique combos and toppings. Service is usually pretty quick and efficient, and the ambiance is casual and cute (especially if you love cats). read more

I love 3CAT! I've tried many of their drinks, but nothing seems to quite hit the same as their Jade Matcha (which I highly recommend you try). The staff are get the drinks out relatively quickly, and you order on a kiosk. The shop itself has seating for you to chat with friends, but I'm not sure if this is a place to study at as there is no Wifi. Their barley popping boba is also pretty good! It has more of a firmer texture, which I enjoy as well. read more

Finally trying this place out and it was okay for me. I ordered one of the popular drinks Mochi Mango. Very sweet for me and the mochi texture was interesting but I can see why it was different. But it wasn't a wow drink for me. My husband had one of their seasonal drinks, the Ruby Biscotti, just tasted like a typical earl grey milk tea drink it did have a strong tea flavor though. read more

This place is new so that might be why there's a lot of hype. I was able to try all the top choices and here's what I think- They're all good but not amazing. I definitely feel like the drinks are more tasty in name rather than actually how it is. When we talk about value too, I'd rather go to omomo for example instead of the top choices. I'd recommend getting something off the menu instead of the top choices. The service was pretty quick and fine. The whole place was pretty clean as well so it is a good start for this business. I'll come back in a few months and try it again and maybe i'll see if my mind has changed. 3.5/5 read more

My sister said it would be life changing and it sure was! Mochi and mango slush all in one? Seriously.

3Cat is now open at The District in Tustin! This spot is well known for their thoughtfully handcrafted teas along with their awesome cat decor. There is a lot of parking spots all around the area. Inside, they have a cozy interior with about 6-7 tables for seating. They have a great selection of drink options to choose from such as milk teas, fruit teas, and lattes. Wifey and I decided to get the Icy Peach and the Avomango Sweet Dew. Both drinks were very refreshing, made with fresh fruit, and had great flavor! Overall, this spot lives up to the hype and more! All of the staff are very friendly and welcoming here. Come stop by for yourself to check out some of their seasonal drink options and their cat figurines! read more

This place is known for their mochi drinks and this is the second time I went to get it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves trying new boba since it's the only place I know of with the soft mochi topping. Drinks aren't too sweet either, and the inside of the cafe is cute with cats everywhere :). read more

Had a great experience here. We came around 5pm on a Sunday. It was pretty crowded. We got 2 drinks, the Avocado Mango & the barley tea. My drink the Avocado Mango was pretty good but when it melted it got a little too sweet. I liked the toppings in it. Next time I'd just get it less sweet. I tried my friends barley tea and it was pretty good I'd say 8/10. read more

They should allow you to sub the bobas since it's the same price. Or substitute mochi for boba, or even remove things such as mochi when you don't want it. I was willing to pay to remove mochi and add boba too since we couldn't sub. The worker Cynthia was probably following policy, however, it makes no sense. The drinks were also terrible imo, better options out there. Overall my experience with the workers/policy + drinks were horrendous. read more

My aunt told me about this place because she loves their barley tea, and I wasn't sure what to expect. Came to try it and oh man -- it's so good. I've been telling everyone about it. It's a self-service kiosk setup (sometimes a staff member helps), and you can really taste the fresh ingredients. My favorite is the avocado mango -- it's like sipping fresh mango straight through a straw. The mochi is popular here too, though it's not really my thing. Parking in this plaza is the worst, but if I'm in the area it's a must-stop. Once your order is ready, it pops up on a screen (looks like an iPad), so there isn't much customer interaction, but that's fine. There's some seating and usually a line, but it moves. Fresh, unique, and worth the wait. read more

I love ordering from here! I got the Jade matcha and it is so refreshing. I usually always order on Uber Eats and it comes in the cutest bags and my drink always comes out perfect! Looking forward to buying in the shop one day! read more

Been wanting to take my friends to this location this I've tried the one in San Diego. We came in on a Sunday evening there was no wait for the tablet to order. Our drinks probably took around 10-15 minutes to come out. My go to drinks are the mochi barely burst (solid milk tea and I love the texture/flavor of the mochi) and mango sweet dew yumm~ For my friend's order, the option to keep the cream top was unavailable so she chose to change it to cream mousse. The flavor was good but the ratio was a little off so when she was done there was just cream left haha. My other friend got the ruby biscotti~the biscoff pieces on top added a fun texture. Definitely adding this place to my boba rotation since it has pretty solid options. read more

Was driving by on a Thursday afternoon and saw that it would open in a couple minutes so came to try. Was a bit surprised to see a line already started!! Took me 30 minutes to get to the register and 20 minutes for my drink. The timer went down to 1 min on the board and then crept back up to 4 min. So don't expect it to move consistently. Had I known it would move so slowly, I don't think I would've stayed, but i had already committed. There is only one register so be prepared to wait. Hopefully the online ordering will be up and running for this location. They have a GC promo going right now for $50, you get a $100GC. Best to come later in the day and not at opening time Got the mochi barley burst. Absolutely loved the mochi in it. It was flavorful and fluffy with a slight chew. I would highly recommend any drink with their homemade mochi. read more

Checked out this place on their grand opening weekend to take advantage of their BOGO free deal! There were a good amount of people in line so we waited ~30 minutes. They had free samples of milk tea in a dispenser inside, which was cool. The interior is SO cute. There are a bunch of cat figurines around. The store itself was really clean and had a good amount of seating. They also have a screen that shows when your order is estimated to be finished, and luckily our drinks came out really fast and a lot sooner than they were supposed to. Staff were also really nice and patient. Drinks ordered: - Roasted oolong milk tea with boba: yummy and a classic! I wished I got it a bit less sweet so I could get more of the roasted tea taste (I ordered less sugar), but the taste was still there. Boba was chewy and sweet and had a good texture - Mochi matcha: the matcha flavor was perfect to me. It was sweet enough and not bitter. I wasn't sure what to expect with the mochi but it was really nice and chewy and paired really well with the matcha. I was getting mochi with almost every sip. The drink was also blended well Overall, drinks were solid and I'd recommend this place if looking for a new boba shop to try! read more

I happened to be in the area, and I was excited when I saw there was a bogo promotion until the 25th. I've never tried 3CAT though there is one nearby me, so I'm glad I finally got to try this popular spot! There was of course a line outside but we didn't wait too long (overall wait was around 20-30 minutes). I ordered the Icy Peach (which was a seasonal) while my sister got the avomango sweet dew (which was a top drink). Got my drinks pretty quickly, it was faster than I thought given the line, but it's good they are able to get the orders going. The Icy Peach was actually really good and I would get again! I was pleasantly surprised, I liked the peach bits and they use real fruits as mentioned that they use about 4 peaches for the drink. It tasted fresh and not too sweet (I got it at less sweet which was just right for me). The avomango was good too, it was on the sweeter side for the mango and as a person who likes avocado, I liked the combination. Overall, I would highly recommend trying and I will definitely come back to get more of their drinks! Very cute and spacious interior. read more
