25 minutes to get a coffee flight and it tasted average and cost $18. Looks good on Instagram but not worth the wait or cost.

It's good to be in Santa Clara again with so much to look at. Before we went to Korean BBQ for dinner, my brother and I went to Beastea to have ice cold bubble tea as our refresher. First off, we were anxiously waiting for someone else to show up at the counter. And it appeared we had a cute young woman to turn to for the orders. Perhaps the pandemic had reduce the amount of staff; I'm sure we hope for at least 2 to 3 staff members. The service here is just as good. If anyone likes to come to Beastea, be sure to call ahead of time to see who's available. Matcha Mango with chia seeds (picture below) if you wish for an antioxidant pick-me-up. ( ^ w ^ )b read more

I went to Beastea with a group of 4 on a Sunday about 10 minutes after opening. There was enough seating, and got pretty packed at around 1-2 pm. I had the Mango Sea Matcha boba tea and pandan waffle. Both were really good! In the boba, all of the mango is on the bottom and has a thicker texture than the matcha tea. I would recommend mixing the drink asap! The pandan waffle was also good. It was really fresh and the texture was also very crispy and the flavor was good - not too sweet. It alscomes in a bag sliced into 4. With free WiFi, I would recommend Beastea as a good spot for working/meetups besides the fact that it says "not good for working" on yelp. I'm planning to come back and try more boba flavors! :) read more

Had to check out the newest boba place in town! I tried the Beastie Special (Organic Jasmine Milk Tea w/ Cheese Crystals [$4.95]). It was definitely something different, I guess I just had different expectations because I'm used to the Salted Cheese with the drinks at Happy Lemon, so I was imagining some small jellies with the cheese inside. But when the waiter said that I would have to get a spoon to eat it, I was a little surprised. I tried one of the jellies on its own and definitely liked it much better with the tea. The tea itself has a nice flavor because it's sweet, but you can also taste the tea, so the flavor isn't masked. ~~Parking: They have a lot that they share with other stores in the same plaza. ~~Service: Good because the person taking the order didn't stare me down when I was deciding what I wanted to drink. It took about 5 minutes from order to drink in hand. ~~Return: Most likely, and will probably try the taro drink or something else! read more

Holy damn, hands down one of the nicest and probably best customer service from any boba place in the bay that I've been to. Based on other reviews it may have been the manager or owner so huge props there. Got myself a Passion My Tension(lol +1 for their unique names on a lot of their drinks) it was pretty perfect for me. Didn't have to wait too long and again, the cashier wanted to make sure I was totally satisfied with the drink when we grabbed it and again before we left. Can't really see this type of service anywhere else. They have a huge range of tea drinks as well so that's always awesome versus say some places which only serve specifically one kind which more often than not just serves to limit their audience. Would be one of my regular places if not for the distance. read more

Beastea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Beastea is a new boba shop located in the same plaza as 99 Chicken. I dragged my coworker here after we had dinner nearby at Taichi Hot Pot, since they didn't have any dessert options there. It seemed like they had a giant group of friends/family over that night for a birthday(s), so it was pretty crowded and loud around 9pm on a Tuesday. However, there was no line at the time, and I tried: [https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=eAZ7508kwDlP4sWOLBbRLA&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg -Mango Sea Matcha (Organic Japanese Matcha w/Mango, $4.25): Not that great- the matcha part was really grassy and strong, and somewhat bitter. At least the mango part seemed fresh, but a little sweet. I wouldn't get this again. -Beastea Special (Organic Jasmine Tea Milk Tea w/Crystal Cheese, $4.95): Also not that great- the tea flavor was strong but not smooth, AND they forgot my crystal cheese!! I wouldn't get this again. The staff here seems nice, but the drinks that I tried aren't up to the par with the boba chains from Taiwan (Happy Lemon, T4, Sharetea, etc). I doubt I'd come back, unless I wanted to check out their banh mi. Parking in this plaza can be difficult since it's really small, and the spots themselves are really small (watch out for door dings). read more

Beastea - Mango Sea Matcha (Matcha w/Mango, $4.25) & Beastea Special (Jasmine Tea Milk Tea w/Crystal Cheese, $4.95)- both weren't very good. 2/5 stars - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Beastea is located in Santa Clara. After my KFC excursion at 99 Chicken, I was looking for something to quench my thirst. Luckily for me, 2 store fronts down was a new Tea place. The staff were friendly and helpful as I studied the menu. I ordered the Beastea Special (Organic Jasmine Milk Tea with Cheese Crystal) and Lychee Me (Organic Jasmine Tea with Lychee Bits). While I waited, I took lots of pictures (see posted photos). After a short wait, I got my drinks. They were refreshing and tasty. I'll have to make a return trip to try out more of their drinks as well as their snacks. read more

Beastea - Waffles - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

The name itself is intriguing so it was nice that we got to stop by. It's near various restaurants so it'll be a nice stop for a snack/desserts. The menu is definitely extensive so they have lots to choose from, both from the drinks and snacks side. I got the Sea Salt Cheese Krema Organic Jasmine Tea which I thought was okay. It's was good but not something I would be intrigued to buy again. I do applaud the thought that it is organic and made with quality tea leaves. read more

I wanted to try out a new boba place so we went to this eatery today. Arrived at around 11:30am and the place was empty. Located next to 99 Chicken on El Camino Real so there's ample parking. We ordered the #17 "Passion my Tension" and #21 "Eternal Peach". Both drinks tasted decent. The mango bits in #17 were kinda sour which I liked. I'd like to come back and try their Banh Mi sandwiches and gelato. Customer service: 4 stars Ambience: 4 stars (Cute wallpaper and artsy decor) Variety: 4.5 stars (they have fruit teas, milk teas, smoothies, gelato, fried snacks, and sandwiches) read more

Don't be deceived by their over-sized portions, drinks and decor. Expect a hot dining area with absolutely no AC, a long wait and non-English speaking workers who will turn business away for any reason just because it is busy. The rowdy crowd is invited to loiter inside and outside the business as well as harass law abiding customers. They have flies and rotting fruit in the dining area as well as boxes along the walls like its a storage area. They offer a huge menu because some of the items are "not available" even when it's an online order. Definitely a beast of horrible customer service and artificially flavored beverages. read more

Great drinks and friendly service. Boba was soft and chewy. Ordered Mango Sea Matcha, Ube Latte and Thai Tea.

Lets say..... hardly any places will add a bunch of toppings for 4.50 and a size large! But here it is included with jasmine tea. So I decided to order the moonlight wintermelon 50% sweet. It still tasted very sweet. Overall, I could not finish but it still tasted good the next day. Yaaay! Service and quality was great & they will customize your drink. Ordered: Moonlight wintermelon jasmine tea Chia seeds, aloe, wintermelon read more

Came here with my friend on a hot day. Parking was pretty good for a plaza. First thing I noticed was that there weren't too many distinct drinks to order when I looked on Yelp. I saw one recommendation for the wintermelon milk tea, which didn't have any milk content strangely enough, and I found it to be rather good. Pros: Good drink, nice customer service, average wait time Cons: Shop looks pretty dated, not many stand-out drinks, they don't take Apple Pay even though Yelp said it did :(. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by this place! Honestly, no complaints. I had a thai tea and they also offered this green thai tea that had a minty taste. Super good. They also sell plants, have a crane machine, cute chairs, and a photo op. read more

4.5 stars. Today we go again! Yes, not many place worth revisit. I have #33 and a signature drink spicy fruit smoothies with gelato on top. Happy customers! Owner: Please consider have hot drinks for winter. I have no relationship and don't know the shop owner. Nor I receive any compensation writing this review. They seem really new to the business but their drinks are special! read more

Glad to find this new Vietnamese food around The Viet Sandwich is so good and tasty lots of pork and pickles I tried the Sea Salt Cheese Green tea, it's delicious, a little salty, little sweet, little creamy, next time I will add more matcha powder on top! Passion Fruit tea is popular there, so I tried that too, recommend 25% sweet because it already sweet! The service was friendly and helpful! read more

This place is really good! It's a little hole in the wall but the boba and milk teas we got were really good- not too sweet either! I like that the use cups with lids that don't need straws too. Next time I want to try some of the food they have available! The seating area is pretty large and they have fun board games you can borrow to play. Lots on their menu and they even have catering available (jug of drinks available). Parking is a little tight here but always able to find a spot. read more

Open during SIP. Since it's so hot, I wanted a refreshing fruit tea so I ordered the 'passion my tension' tea. I ordered less sweet but I still find it a bit too sweet. It's very fruity, my personal preference would be more tea so that it actually satisfies my thirst. read more

Beastea - Passion my tension - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

A cute little shop that sell hot foods, dry snacks, smoothies, and tea. They're the closest boba shop to where I work. I came in and there was only ONE worker who was prepping all the food and drinks, manning the cashier, and handling to go orders. She looked overwhelmed and she politely told me to wait as she was still neck deep in the orders ahead of me. There was a line forming behind me, too. I left shortly after because I knew I wouldn't have my order taken any time soon since a to-go order popped up and it held more priority. The shop has a lot of potential and I like their extensive menu. I wish they had more decaffeinated drinks for children to have. **There needs to be more than one worker running the shop, otherwise customers will have to wait a long time. read more

I went here on one of the hottest days this summer. Place seems poplar with the locals because after I came in there was a steady stream of people. No AC but they had an industrial fan blowing warm air around. Tried to order a ice coffee and they wwre missing 2 types so I settled. I also stuck with a classic milk tea that was good. Friendly service. Decor looked promising minus the supply boxes lined up against one wall/hallway blocking off the bathroom. read more

My son and I came to play some board games. The smoothies were very big and yummy but there's not many caffeine free items which is typical but disappointing. read more

They need to have someone that speaks english, communication is hard. The drinks are good but its hard to order or have a conversation

Beastea makes the most delicious Rose Milk Tea, 75% sweet is pretty sweet so if you like it less ask for 50-65%. The most delicious floral Rose flavor I have ever found at any Boba Shop. The service depends on the day, either it can be fast or slow. I am fine with waiting as it is worth it! read more

I looooooooove Beastea!!! I've had at least 3 or 4 different drinks here and they're all so good! My go-to drink is the black milk tea with flan and...EXTRA FLAN! Their flan is the REAL DEAL! And one of the workers there always remember me because I'm the only one who orders extra flan lol. The workers are really nice there too! If you're unhappy with your drink, they will gladly fix it for you! The only thing is that they got rid of their house special wings They were the best wings ever!! Hopefully one day they'll bring it back. I'm glad Beastea took over Honeyberry's spot, because Honeyberry was getting a little boring. read more

really good customer service, and Boba. I got the blues game. It was really creamy anyways. read more

Beastea - Ube latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Found their page on Instagram and read the reviews and people were hyping about their new coffee series. I tried the cheese coffee and flan coffee and they were both bad. Tasted water down and doesn't taste like viet coffee at all. If you had tram coffee before it taste nothing like this. Never trust people who review on Yelp because it's all a lie! The viet coffee doesn't taste creamy at all. On top of that, they didn't have egg coffee which they advertised on their IG page but had the rest of the coffee series. I took 2 sips and I would not come here to try their coffee again! read more

It's Thirsty Thursday... but here's a spot that won't leave you thirsty at all! They have quite an extensive selection of drinks: milk tea, specialty drinks, fruity tea specialty drinks, sea salt cheese kreama, fresh juice, slushies, smoothies, coffee. If you're hungry, snacks are available for you. There's something for everyone here. DRINKS: -------- My favorite drinks to read off the menu are the ones with highly entertaining names. Because I was craving something refreshing, I really had to order the **Passion My Tension** out of curiosity. The name itself is hilarious, but the drink does indeed cure one's tension (I think?). The combination of organic jasmine tea, passion fruit, mango and strawberry bits is simply divine. Other entertaining names are the Cougar Bait and Make Me High, but nothing is more perplexing than... Better Than Shark? I need to do more research and report back on these interesting concoctions. Also delicious is the **Taro Lovers** which is taro milk tea with quite a generous amount of fresh taro chunks. Yum! If you like taro, I highly recommend this. SERVICE: ---------- There are a lot of new staff in training, but they are always cheerful and do their best. Also the manager is always around to ensure quality control and to keep things running smoothly. As of today, there is not a customer loyalty program in place, but looking forward to them starting theirs up soon! DECOR: -------- Cute instagrammable wall. One couch if you feel like kicking back a little. Board games available for you to enjoy time with your friends. DATE TIP: If you need to Passion your Tension, this is the place for you. read more

I don't post many reviews but for this place I need to. Do NOT come here. My teenagers love boba tea and I love strawberry smoothies so that's what we got as we wanted to try a new place and were in the area. All of our drinks tasted like SOAP! After a few sips we had to throw them away. Wasted $22, I wanted to go back to demand my money back but I was in a hurry and we had other errands to run. The place was dirty and cheap just thrown together too. I cant believe anybody could give this place a 4 star review, it deserves zero stars. Please dont waste your time or money here. read more

Ok, I've been coming here for a few years now and it's finally time to admit that this is my favorite boba tea place in Santa Clara. The flavor of their milk tea is fresh and their expanded menu of snacks is a huge plus. Location is great and there is plenty of seating insdie to chill and enjoy your drinks. read more

Drink are so good and service is always friendly. Would definitely recommend to try this spot out.

We got the Mango Sea Matcha (50% sweetness + boba) and Passion My Tension Fruit Tea. So for the Mango Sea Matcha they blend real mango and they do give you a lot of it in the drink. I would definitely recommend getting ice if you are getting this drink or it could give you a mushy/heavy taste. Passion My Tension Fruit Tea had an interesting taste. read more

Beastea - #11. Mango Sea Matcha #17. Passion My Tension Fruit Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Beastea is my sweet getaway when I am bored of drinking items from my work place fridge... They use authentic tea leaves and their fruity drinks are always made from fresh fruits. I am obsessed with their pandan waffle whenever I am near the area - I just have to get one to munch on. I love that they not only serve tea but also snack items that you can get even though you might be full. The pricing for their drinks are reasonable (each drink is about $4-5 average) and not over the top. They have variety of toppings for you to choose from and their boba was never too hard/uncooked. Free wifi and it's a good spot for you to catch up with friends. read more

Beastea - #20. Kiss on the Lips Fruit Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Clara, California

For me, this was instantly five stars in my book because 1. they actually invited my puppy into the store and 2. they had panda waffle. Let's start with the pandan waffle: it was 3.25 and the best money that I've ever spent. It was so thick and fluffy and made right there in front of you. I mean the flavor wasn't too overpowering and there was still hints of coconut there. It was steaming hot and I just couldn't stop eating it. First off, I hadn't been able to find a place in the East Bay to recreate it since my favorite shop closed down in chinatown. The concept here is not just regular boba, but they have a great twist on different drinks. I love that their menu is so creative and they have really put some thought into crafting their drinks. Upon first appearance, you can't even tell that they serve anything besides basic boba (especially the plaza that they're in). But wow would you be surprised. I appreciate the fact that they have pictures for their drinks as well! Staff was super friendly in introducing different drinks. They have all types of drinks, smoothies and slushies, traditional milk teas, sea salt crema, fresh juice, and coffees. The names are even creative! I got the Aphrodite Strawbernada - it took a minute to make but you can tell it was fresh. They hand cut the fruit and threw in a big dollop of fresh strawberry ice cream. I also got their regular milk tea just to test the waters and that's how you know that they're legit if you can make good old fashion milk tea. I mean if you can't .... should you even be allowed to call yourself a boba shop? I was impressed by their menu and just the care and quality they put into their drinks and food. They even serve food! I saw a lot of people ordering spring rolls and banh mi. I would highly recommend anybody to stop by this local shop rather than something commercialized since we should all support our local businesses. I mean they have everything you would crave when you want boba and introduce you to something you can't get anywhere else! read more

I love this place for their fruity teas! My favorite is Passion My Tension which comes with strawberry and mango bits... almost don't need boba! Also I love their egg rolls and popcorn chicken! Egg rolls are very meaty and filling. Sweet potato fries are also great here. Open during covid, call ahead to reduce your wait time! read more

The food and drinks are great. But customer service is what makes this place not worth visiting. They take way too long to prepare orders. Over 40 minutes. When trying to call restaurant while waiting for order. They never answer the phone or call back. If the service was a great as the food/drinks this place would be 5 stars read more

I really really like their smoothies here. The texture comes out on the thicker side, but not so thick as to make it impossible to drink with a straw which is exactly how I like it. read more

Catering service- AMAZING!!! I ordered Taro lover (non- caffeinated for the kids) and Jasmine milk tea for adults. 6 gallons for ~75 guests. Everyone loved it! They can make their own and add the toppings they want. Taro lover is the best! It has fresh taro bites that you can add into the drink. My daughter's 3rd birthday was extra special with all you can drink BOBA. Joy was very professional and friendly. On time delivery and set-up. I had my own dispenser. But I am sure you can work with her to see if u can rent her dispenser. Excellent price! Definitely would cater with Beastea again for next event! read more
