    I heard about Asha Tea House and I can't believe this was my first time trying! I had the Matcha Strawberry Cold, and it was so good. The matcha was smooth and earthy, while the strawberry added just the right amount of sweetness and freshness. I ordered through DoorDash pickup, and the pickup process was quick and easy. My drink was ready on time, making it a convenient option. The shop itself has a cozy atmosphere, and the service was friendly and efficient. After finally trying it, I can definitely see why Asha Tea House has such a loyal following. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

    Strawberry Matcha Latte

    I actually went here pre pandemic so during my walk downtown I was excited to see that Asha is still around. I ended up getting the strawberry matcha slightly sweetened. I wouldn't say it's my favorite but I did enjoy it. I typically like matcha drinks to be a little bolder in flavor but it felt kind of light hence the once star drop. I took it to go but the interior of the shop looked cute. I could see myself getting some work done or reading a book inside.

    Excellent tea shop with many fine tea options ranging from various grades of matcha to Hojicha, masala chai, Hong Kong milk tea, to herbal teas. They sell drinks hot or cold by the cup or also you can buy loose leaf bags. Also offerings of milk, fruit sparklers and lemonade. And some baked goods as snacks. They have an iced coffee too. Very nice and serene environment. Good sized drinks for iced large matcha. Smooth and very good quality.

    Stumbled upon this with my friend, I got the regular iced matcha latte and she got the blood orange matcha latte. The iced matcha latte was perfect~ the blood orange matcha latte was interesting in a good way! You taste both the orange and the matcha, it was a perfect balance of the two. It's a super cute matcha cafe. They sell matcha here and other teas. Service was fast and they were all very helpful.

    Decent but not amazing milk tea. Does satisfy the craving, though! I got a regular black milk tea, 75% sweet, and this wasn't sweet enough. Luckily the boba was sweet and chewy, so that helped. The milk tea itself was pretty watery and lacked the tea flavor. I also got to try the hong kong milk tea with regular sweetness, which was definitely the better drink but still eh. Probably wouldn't come back as there are many other milk tea spots that I would want to try!

    Iced HK Milk Tea w Grass Jelly (~$7)

    Ordered: Iced HK Milk Tea w Grass Jelly (~$7) Aya's take: Convenient location with a few tables/chairs making this an easy spot to stop by if you need a caffeine boost. We got the Iced HK Milk Tea w Grass Jelly. It was pretty lackluster for me; it was fragrant and spiced but I wonder if it's because I asked for reduced sweetness. The Grass Jelly was also too big to comfortably sip on. There's plenty of other boba spots in the Bay, and maybe this one just wasn't for me.

    Asha, you're still one of my favorite Bay Area tea places. 5/5 every time! The only trouble I ever have is either the wait because the lines are so long, or me being unable to decide between all the good flavors. This is my favorite season (Feb-March) with Asian pear and blood orange. It's super refreshing and not like other places where they use syrup. Here they use the real fruit and it shows. Since I'm diabetic I appreciate the ability to have no added sugar in my drink, and they always do a great job of listening to me about less ice. Worth the $7, just take my $$$$$!!!

    Blood Orange Matcha Latte

    Travel days always call for a solid caffeine stop, and this one came through in a big way. While on a work trip to SF, I found Asha tea house near my hotel and was immediately taken cared of. The cashier was super kind, walked me through some popular teas, and even pointed out a few underrated seasonal options. I ended up ordering the blood orange matcha with oat milk, and wow... heavenly. Blood orange matcha is a such a fun and unexpected combo, but it worked so well. Prices were great for the matcha quality which made the experience even better. Loved it enough to come back the very next morning for the same drink, and I'd happily do it again next time I'm in the bay.

    I been here a max 3 times already. Once for Matcha and the other times for ginger honey for 5.50 currently! I like the searing it's warm inside each time I visit while it's cold outside. Today closes at 5pm. The service is wonderful and the air is pure! I love this spot near Montgomery Bart. I'm sure I'll be back to try other things!

    March 2026 Weekday 2pm: milk tea with boba did not have much tea flavor! :( It's been some time since getting from Asha, their matcha is better than the teas. Order at the one kiosk or front counter, the order came out pretty quick. There's a couple tables inside. But all tables were occupied, luckily SF has some other public table spaces. Unfortunately there is no wifi. For $6.75, the tea flavor was not present, it tasted watery. The pearls had a great chew. Given that this is tea shop, I was hoping for better tea flavor. Better to go to HeyTea

    Hong Kong Milk Tea
    Evan Z.

    I really enjoyed the Hong Kong milk tea, the flavor was more mild than a lot of other HK milk teas I've had which I thought was nice. The staff were nice and the interior is cute though it's a bit dark and small; probably not a fantastic place to work at. 4.4/5

    Stopped by here in the afternoon before checking into our hotel. The shop is small with limited seating and was pretty busy but we managed to snag a spot to sit down for a bit before leaving. Cute and modern decor inside! We ordered at the kiosk (they only had one) and the bobaristas got our drinks out in under 5 minutes! What we got: -Hong Kong Milk Tea: pretty decent drink, and very high quality tea. It was not too sweet even with 100% sweetness (from our standards anyways) -Roasted Oolong Milk Tea: I could taste the really rich roast on the tea leaves in this drink! Not watered down at all, and tasted even more roasted the next day in the fridge. They have a lot of seasonal offerings so the menu that you might see from a couple months ago might not be on the menu. Overall solid spot that emphasizes the tea in milk tea!

    Excellent tea shop. Lots of cute drinks and a tea bar. Also excellent HK iced tea with great caffeination. Seating for 12 people or so.

Parking nearby is horrendous, super busy even on the weekdays before the rush hour so I can't imagine weekends when people are out or other high traffic times. Get ready to make some rounds and pay for parking and be careful since there's very specific signage and times. The cafe itself is cute and cozy. Front area is a gift shop with lots of cat themed gifts and goodies like keychains, stickers, and such, and also some items from local and small artists too, which is neat. The cafe also has community events like movie showings ("The Cat Returns" was one of them which is a great choice) and cat yoga. If you're local, you can also get a time stamp if you are a frequent visitor. Definitely follow their socials for more information. There's reservations online and you can also do walk ins if it's not super busy. You can book for a 55 minute visit or a 30 minute visit. PRO-TIP: There's a discount for students, so if you want to be surrounded by some feline friends while you study or relax, great place to do so. You can hang your coat on the rack and there's a mini shelf area for your shoes. So you gotta walk in with socks! With each visit you can either get a hot cup of tea or a cold can or box drink from their fridge (sparking water, juices, etc.). Very refreshing and you can enjoy it in the cat area too. Sanitize your hands before and after visiting. There's lots of cats hiding around, sleeping, walking around, and some are super friendly and will go into your lap. There's toys you can play with the cats with and there's a wall of adoptable cats. Lots of seats or you can opt to sit on the floor with the cats too. There's relaxing lo-fi music throughout too. Pretty cool that they rescued 2 cats from Qatar and neat that we got to see them. As with all cats, some can be a bit spicy but it's usually just a warning teeth rub. I own cats so there's nothing new. I'm horribly allergic to the cat that specifically lives in my house, but I didn't get an allergy here, meaning that the cats are clean and well taken for. My favorite was a large sleepy orange boy, Ron (permanent non-adoptable resident) that was hanging out next to me the entire time.
