    We stopped at this little food court area as we were walking Let's Glow to grab some drinks and a bite to eat. This location calls itself Boba and Brew but they have very few options for tea. I ordered a "classic milk tea" with light ice and it was about $6. There was only one other customer and it took longer to get the tea than it did to get my food from another truck in the area. This was hands down one of the worst milk teas I've ever had. It tasted like someone had brewed a weak cup of tea and left it out until it was room temperature and then added some powdered creamer to it. I'm not sure how new this business is but they need to work on their customer service and quality of product.

    Came here for coffee at 11am (after spring forward). They use Equator coffee and they do a pour over. The coffee tastes very good -- the person was very generous with cream so if you like it light, be specific with them. It took a good few minutes to get coffee as they were just getting going and they grind the coffee after I ordered. Overall, cute spot.

    Quick Summary: - Located where the temporary bus terminal used to be I recall years ago, when I took the bus from the Bay Area to San Francisco, it drove into this large depot called the temporary bus terminal. Currently, all buses moved to the Salesforce park, so just the same I haven't gone here since its move. How I discovered this place was this app. My colleagues and I wanted boba but wanted to try something new than the ones near our office. We took a long and fun walk along the walk -- longer than our usual places -- and into this space. It still kept the physical remnants of the bus terminal, such as the cross walk and the crossing button that has no use anymore. It reminds me of Spark SF because the space was replaced as a sport activity like venue with some food trucks parked on another corner of space. Our destination today was to the boba place, so we walked past the miniature soccer fields and tennis or pickleball courts. We arrived here past 3pm, so it felt like the busy boba hours have passed. The staff there also assumed the same; there was only one person handling the order and making the drinks. The speed would be average, but unfortunately, my colleague team was large, so the orders took some time to complete. (I was relieved that there were no one after us, as expected, we did come at a slow boba hour) I ordered a Thai tea because that day. It was a refreshing drink with a creaminess of milk. Generally, I like how this space was repurposed, so I would need to visit here again.

    The fruit teas were actually very refreshing, particularly the Lychee fruit tea and the seasonal Red Guava fruit tea. They're all artificially flavored with syrups fyi. And their Classic Milk Tea is real but it's pretty bland and tastes more like milk then a milk tea.

    Thai iced tea with coconut jelly

    Location was super easy to access, we were walking and came across it. Menu is limited, but the item we did order was amazing. They ran out of boba and were in the process of making more, so we settled for coconut jelly with our Thai iced tea and it happened to be an awesome accidental combination. Prices were a little steep for the only small-ish size they offer, but it's SF, so I guess that's to be expected. There are also plenty of lunch style benches for seating, and they were all clean. The service was fast and friendly, and the drink was probably some of the best Thai tea we've had in a long while, we will likely return.

    Good service and nice ambiance Mango smoothie tasted very yummy, and the price was reasonable!

    Service is great!! I even got a sample of the boba... and their coffee is awesome. And the kind gesture of the cashier and chat we had was sweet.

    Beautiful boba and coffee bar right next to pickle ball courts. A block away from Salesforce Park and transit terminal. My Strawberry boba was perfect and my buddy loved the Ube taro boba.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

We chose this large city location thanks to easy parking and a convenient stop on our drive. It was a beautiful morning, which was easy to enjoy thanks to the high ceilings, big glass windows, and open main door. The first floor has a central counter to order food and drinks; the glass cabinet has a bunch of rotating pastries from a local bakery. They have restrooms and a merchandise area here too. At the front are counter seats along the front window, and also a horseshoe that looks into the roasting area, which is a great place to smell the beans. There's an upstairs loft that overlooks the cafe below, also with a test kitchen area and offices across to the front.

The lady that I was watching was there for the matcha and I can understand why now. We tried the Yuzu Matcha Air Cloud and a Caramel Latte because I felt like we needed to try the coffee since it's a Coffee shop though I have to say I was not a fan of the coffee. We arrived just before the line outside started to form. There's seating available inside with a couple of people that seemed to be working. We originally sat in the middle section with the small round table that can't be moved but then a table opened up. There's a gender neutral restroom available that always seemed to have a line though I guess that's what happens at coffee shops. ~~Service: Good. It was quick to order and surprisingly very quick to receive our drinks as well. ~~Best Part: The Matcha. The coffee was a bit too bitter but it could be due to the fact that I do prefer to drink dark roasts. ~~Worst Part: Nit though maybe it's just me where we were expecting there to be a trash at the entrance so that we could throw away our cups as we were leaving but I guess there's no room for the bins at the beginning so you have to walk to the back towards the restroom to throw it away. ~~Tips: Get the matcha. I wanted to get the velvet but it looked so basic compared to the Yuzu matcha air cloud. The Yuzu flavor itself was refreshing in the foam form but I'm very basic when it comes to flavors and shouldn't have mixed the foam in because it was messing with me. ~~Return: Probably not. I wanted to check the receipt because somehow 2 drinks was nearly $20 but I realized there wasn't even an option to get a receipt.

Before long, the barista pumps up the volume, increasing higher and higher every 5 minutes or so, as if to signal to us that our time was up. I asked her to turn down the volume, which she tuned down from an 11 to a 7, but minutes later it continued to creep up, like the snooze setting of an alarm clock coaxing you to wake up - except in this case, to get out. Ultimately, the volume got unbearable and we finally threw in the towel and got out of there to let the barista enjoy her music.
