I didn't get a chance to try the drinks this time, but the food alone made the visit worth it! The garlic fries were packed with flavor, and the gyoza was really good, honestly tasted even better with soy sauce than the dipping sauce provided. The macarons were a bit small, but the flavors were rich and strong. Overall, everything tasted delicious! read more

I was passing by during a Yelp Event and decided to drop by? I just ordered a Classic Boba Milk tea at 15% sugar. Taste wise it's actually fairly better than most with a floral smell? You don't often find places where the scent is noticeable from a distance? The prices are around 8 USD each, a little higher than my usual yet it can be tolerated since this is higher quality. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A cute little spot in downtown Campbell off Campbell Avenue.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A pretty good selection of milk and fresh teas to choose from. Self-serve on their kiosk, so no one greets you or asks if you need anything. And for a Saturday afternoon, they were already out of their Egg Waffles? Never heard of a place of running out of something that's pretty simple to make since you only need to make the batter. Popcorn chicken was good. The mild is already pretty spicy enough for me. And able to select to Almond milk in my hot Taro Latte with an extra cost - I think $0.75 more). [[HIGHLIGHT]]But, a lively place with music playing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Breaktime Tea - Thai Milk Tea The best (less sweet) - Bubble Tea Near Me - Campbell, California

Came here on a hot day for an icy drink to cool me down and a quick snack to fuel me up. It was around noon on a weekday but they were already out of the Thai tea that I wanted and didn't have any of the hot snacks listed on their menu. I was told they were "having problems with their kitchen." Not exactly sure what that means but it sounds kinda ominous? Almost left to give one of the other tea spots in Campbell my business but did I mention it was hot and I was thirsty? So I ordered tea anyway -- a taro-flavored one and an Okinawa brown sugar tea, both with honey boba. They were solidly made and quenched my thirst. But I'll probably check out a different tea place next time. read more

I tried the Okinawa milk tea with bubbles. The tea was yummy, it had a rich, black tea flavor. The bubbles were fantastic soft yet chewy. I wished the amount of added bubbles was a bit more. I also ordered the spicy popcorn chicken, which was just as tasty. It came with a side of sweet chili sauce. I would like there to be slightly more chicken and less breading, but overall, it was a great. I ordered online and picked it up in-store, and the service was quite quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have tables and music playing inside, and they also had the same small sweet bites upfront.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Since my last review, I've tried a few different milk teas (lots of after school meetings require pick me up drinks) and have found one that is more to my speed. This particular time, I came with my bf on a weekend as we were looking for a late afternoon snack and decided milk tea sounded good. We were around the area for something else, so we came here. Ordering was easy at the kiosk - okinawa milk tea for me, some coffee drink for the bf and popcorn chicken and mozzarella sticks to share. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was still the same - relaxed and calm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We sat in a corner and had good conversation about random topics. I liked my okinawa milk tea much more than the regular milk tea - it's similar to the brown sugar milk tea with a stronger flavor. My bf gulped down his drink, so I assume he liked his as well. The snacks were decent - I preferred the popcorn chicken over the mozzarella sticks. The chicken was nicely fried, but still tender. The sticks were a little too dry for me. read more

There are a few boba places around this area to choose from. So far this is the best one. Good amount of food items in the menu. Unlike most new boba places now. My go-to snack, popcorn chicken, was good. Drinks were pretty good. A good amount of drinks to choose from especially for a person like me, who does not drink tea. I have to note tho that the taro/ube latte does taste like anything besides milk and tad coffee. Service has been great altho not fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Few seats inside but every time I go, plenty of seats available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

While downtown at the Campbell farmers market I decided I wanted boba. [[HIGHLIGHT]]First thing in noticed when walking in was the decor and the mood lighting. The space is relatively small with just a handful of tables but clean and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was greeted with a smile when I walked in, even with a couple in front of me. They have a relatively simple menu that was easy to read. I ordered a mango green milk tea with honey boba and mango stars, along with some sweet potato fries. The milk tea was great, with just the right amount of sweetness and I throughly enjoyed my toppings. The sweet potato fries, while hot, left something to be desired. They seemed almost not cooked enough and could use a bit of salt. Over all though, I enjoyed myself and wouldn't mind going back to try out some other teas. I need to add because I just noticed! I love the cup that I received my drink in. It looks reusable. read more

TLDR: Strong tea flavor! To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from this Tea place. I have found that tea places cater to the neighborhood they are in. This place is in downtown Campbell. The other thing I look out for is any Chinese in the menu or on the walls. That's why I was very surprised that the tea here rivals some of the more traditional tea places in the Bay Area! And my HK wife agrees! We both have our "go-to" drinks. These are things you KNOW the best, so you can judge if the place is worthy to go back. For my wife, it's Black Milk Tea, 0% sugar, less ice. That's the best ice ratio to get the most tea while still being cold. I usually get either a Mango or Peach Fruit tea (no milk, as I'm lactose intolerant), 25-33% sugar, less ice. I really like my tea! It had a strong tea flavor, and the mango tasted like it normally should! (Believe me, there are some tea places where the mango tastes WEEEEEEIRRRRDDD). My wife also liked hers as well, strong tea flavor with a creamy milk. read more

Popcorn chicken was very generous and the spicy was more spicy how I liked. Taro green tea was great.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place definitely gave "east San Jose Boba joint" planted in Campbell -- teen crowd, matching themed decor, *very* loud clubby music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My buddy and I came in on a tuesday evening. We needed a cafe that was open late, served warm drinks, had friendly staff, and was along a walkable street in case the venue became packed. Good: - [[HIGHLIGHT]]The furniture was neatly arranged like in the photos[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating areas were clean. No loose wrappers/napkins[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place was brightly lit, enough to play a table top game[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - Milk Tea quality 3.5/5 - "No sweet" level had a pleasant hint of sweet Bad: - [[HIGHLIGHT]]Music was so loud we had to raise our voices to chat. We eventually headed outside. The music carried on that way for the 1.5hrs we chatted.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - Interactions with staff were brief and distant because the ordering was automated on iPad. We didn't realize this so, for a while, we stood staring at the menu, awaiting service. - No hot drinks available because steaming equipment was broken - [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bathroom was closed[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - [[HIGHLIGHT]]No outdoor seating[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thoughts: [[HIGHLIGHT]]"Open late" was great, but this place missed all other marks that evening.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The trend of iPad-automated checkout sucks. My buddy and I work from home and chose to go out so we could have a nice warm vibe-y place to sit, and service people are crucial to the vibe. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If we wanted fast service with no interaction, McDonalds would provide similar experience, a quieter place to chat, and probably have warm drinks and an open bathroom to wash our hands.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Call me old-school, but when evaluating a returnable hang out spot, my priorities are ambiance, then service, then food/drinks. Breaktime got 1 out 3.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'd give it another try if no other options are available at that hour. read more

I came in this afternoon with my daughter to grab a drink and mozzarella sticks and probably the last time. We've been coming here for over six years, but today was really disappointing. She ordered a butterfly lemonade for $6.99 and we paid an extra $0.75 for rainbow jelly. When she got her drink, she was let down by how little jelly was in it. I thought she might be overreacting, but when I looked and agreed... it was barely anything. She asked the staff nicely for more since we had paid for it, but was told she'd have to pay again. I spoke to the employee myself, and they showed me the small scoop that was added. Honestly, it didn't seem fair. We left pretty upset. It was disappointing to be treated that way, especially in front of a child. We've always loved coming here, so this experience was really disheartening. read more

Visited at 9pm on a Saturday night and there were a few people hanging out here. I'm a frequent visitor of the SJ location, but this was my first time in the Campbell location. It was a lot cleaner and quieter than the SJ location and I liked the interior decor and Christmas decorations they put up as well. I ordered a passionfruit green tea (50% sweet) and the barista made it on the spot. Parking is difficult to find in downtown Campbell, but there is a free parking garage right behind this building. Definitely a cute place to check out if you're craving boba. read more

This location is a bit smaller than the SJSU one, but it is the perfect air conditioned haven while walking around Downtown Campbell. Their tables also conveniently have wireless chargers.

Was greeted as soon as I came in. Service was fast and welcoming. Got the brown sugar milk tea and was tasty

Surprisingly good boba in DT Campbell! Tried the brown sugar boba. I got half sweet like usual and on the first few sips it was way too sweet, I think the syrup sank to the bottom, so I would mix it a little more next time. The boba was qq / just the right firmness. I also tried the popcorn chicken, comes with a sort of Polynesian sauce. Would come again! read more

My kids likee ze boba, pretty yum. My body sadly can't handle the mozzarella sticks but yum yum in my tum tum

I rarely write reviews but this place is one of my favs ! And trust me I've probably been to every bubble tea spot in NorCal. My go to is mango green milk tea but definitely will branch out next time . TIL then cheers! read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon after a long walk around Campbell park and we wanted something refreshing to drink. Breaktime Tea is conveniently located in Downtown Campbell where there are other shops to visit and a farmer's market. The menu was easy to order from and the drinks came out almost instantly! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We didn't stay but seems like it's a good work/study spot because we saw a couple people working/studying.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Rude service they have an employee there who is disrespectful to her customers and is very disrespectful and rude I used to love coming here but this place sucks now I previously had a review here but I decided to remove it from two years ago after the service I've received. This is unacceptable especially after all times I've came here this used to be my number 1 boba shop. Now it's probably the worst in Campbell. read more

Breaktime Tea - Perfect. It's an amazing boba place I come here every weeek I love it truly just love it. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Campbell, California

I have never been into boba. Shocking I know! I'm embarrassed to say it was so... noticed how I said so. I was introduced to boba late in life and since then every place I have tried has been ok but when I found this gem located in downtown campbell I am obsessed. I came in one day and asked if there was a mocha boba and the young girl who helped me said no but suggested I order a milk tea boba with mocha sauce that she would add. I tried it and it was heaven in a cup! Perfect sweetness and blend of milk tea I drank it so fast I didn't even realize it was almost gone. Since this intro day I have been there about 15 times and have brought family members to treat. I will be back again converting another family member to the boba train soon!! read more

Breaktime Tea - Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Campbell, California

Dairy free milk teas and milk alternatives(soy milk and almond milk). This is my favorite tea spot. All of their milk teas are dairy free but you can also order them with milk alternatives. Favorites include the classic, peach, and okinawa milk teas. I've also tried the chicken and fried cheese sticks, both delicious. Service is quick, and the inside has plenty of seating with a quiet study like vibe. read more

3.5 stars but rounding up for a solid new(er) boba spot! They are located in Downtown Campbell, and they weren't busy when I stopped by at 7pm on a Tuesday. I decided to stick with their Classic Milk Tea ($5.75, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=J6xdBaKXm82KEob69JmtOg&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg), and it was the perfect level of sweetness at 25%. Their black tea had good flavor, but was a tiny bit too aromatic for my preference. However, it was still good, and I would order this again with boba. I will be back to try their other drinks if in the area. Staff were still wearing masks, and they had hand sanitizer. Both indoor and outdoor seating was available. Parking can be more difficult to find during the weekend rushes, but street parking is available as well as a couple of lots. read more

Breaktime Tea - Classic Milk Tea ($5.75)- 3.5/5 stars - Bubble Tea Near Me - Campbell, California

Nice little spot for hanging out to grab a drink and a snack in downtown Campbell. We stopped by here while we were waiting for an event at Villa Ragusa. Inside is modern and has ample seating. We ordered the: - Spicy popcorn chicken- came with sweet and sour sauce. This was nicely seasoned and was not overly spicy. -Lobster balls- came with a small side of thousand island dressing. Tasted like imitation crab and is passable. -#1 Classic milk tea light sweet with no ice and honey boba. Boba is soft and chewy and the sweetness was good. -#10 Lychee Green Milk Tea with fruit bits and honey boba- this was good and refreshing. Tips: -If you get no ice, there will be a gap. Both of our drinks had "no ice", but one had a more noticeable gap at the top of the drink than the other (please see picture). They didn't mention this when we ordered, or we probably would have gotten less ice instead. - Food was warm, but not hot even though we ate it there. The food came out quickly, though, if you are in a hurry. They do have a virtual stamp card-- make sure you ask for your points! - They had a wireless charging spot on our table that worked and they wifi available. Overall, this is a nice place to stop by if you are in the area. read more

I am a boba lover. I think I have tried every single spot in the Bay Area, but Breaktime takes my #1 pick. I'm a fan of fruity drinks and their teas are so refreshing and not heavy. They are lighter especially when you adjust the sweetness and they have amazing snacks. It's a good space to study too... 10/10 for taste personally. Only down side is costumer service is a little awkward and the workers aren't the most friendly. They also sometimes run out of boba pearls but most of the time they have it! Super clean spot. Good reward program. Breaktime is my favorite spot, along with all my friends! read more

A nice and clean boba shop that's well geared up as a place to hangout and relax. Definitely the first I've seen to have built-in phone charges on their tables! Boba tea was pretty good, but a big happy note that they use non-dairy creamer by default (as the staff helpfully informed me)! I'd be happy to nab another drink from them when I'm next in the area. Parking is actually not so bad if you use the public lot behind the shop (you might think it's street only), so the nice amount of free parking helps. Interior is pretty nicely setup with wood paneling mixed with brick, though no outside seating that I could see. Their menu is somewhat simplified from other shops in the customization sense, since there's no sizing shenanigans and hot stuff is just the same price. However, they do still have quite the variety of drinks on their menu so it's hard to pick out a specialty. They also have a good amount of snacks on the side, but I wasn't in for those so can't comment on their quality. ==Rose Green Milk Tea== Nabbed this guy hot and it was a solid bubble tea and a good balance of the use of rose though less strong on the green tea part. I would have preferred it to be a decent amount hotter (I'd describe it as lukewarm), but still enjoyable. ==Strawberry Green Milk Tea== Had a bunch of blended in strawberry bits that added a more fresh touch to this drink. Boba were reasonably chewy and flavored well. The green tea tasted stronger in this one than my own drink strangely enough. read more

Stopped by here for a quick afternoon meetup with a friend. We were going over some materials on our computers so the open tables and wifi worked out great for us.

Came in to order drinks and snacks and the tablets weren't working. I let the girls behind the counter know, and they said they stopped serving food 30 minutes before closing. I held up my phone to show it was 8:27, they looked at each other with a smirk on their face and just refused to help. Not to mention I called on my way in to confirm I'd be able to order food, and they said yes. Please do better. This is basic customer service. read more

I'm not sure how Breaktime Tea has such good reviews, as my experience was underwhelming. With inflation being so real, paying around $7.50 for a boba tea without boba feels outrageous. The drinks were nothing special--I ordered a roasted oolong milk tea and a tiramisu milk tea with foam, and both were rather flavorless. The shop is located in downtown Campbell, where parking can be limited. I was visiting the nearby park and walked over from there. While the bathroom was exceptionally clean, I can't say the same with confidence about the rest of the shop. It seems most folks come here for the food rather than the beverages. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend Breaktime Tea, as there are so many better alternatives. read more

It's break time here but let's be honest - boba is good for anytime and any occasion. Breaktime Tea sits at the heart of Downtown Campbell which is a great spot for dessert after you've had a meal elsewhere. They have a variety of drinks that includes seasonal offerings, so check the entire menu. If I had seen the sign advertising their Pumpkin Spice Latte boba, I would have totally ordered that instead. Fall or not, my basic-ness comes out for a pumpkin spiced drink (as long as it's vegan friendly). I ordered an Roasted Oolong Milk Tea ($6) with less sugar/ice, which is my go-to at nearly all boba shops. Loved the tea quality and the boba was firm, just the way I like it. Drinks came out very quickly and the workers were able to answer all my questions while ordering. Love that they use non-dairy and lactose free creamer for nearly all their milk tea drinks (with a few exceptions, so be sure to ask). They do offer plant-based milks as well if you prefer to have that instead. Although we didn't stay long enough to enjoy, the tables inside all have wireless chargers attached which is fantastic. The atmosphere and setup really make for a chill working environment so I would not be surprised if more people came and stayed for a drink and to get some work done. Street parking only and may be a bit challenging when it gets busy, but so worth it for solid boba. read more

Boba pearls were decent. Taro latte was quite chalky, but strawberry green milk tea was pretty good. When our order was ready it wasn't called out aloud or sent via text for ~10 mins though we were the only ones in the shop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good ambiance though -- clean and cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] (Also confused by the sweetness options on the kiosk: is it more sweet - less sweet - half sweet? Or more sweet - half sweet - less sweet? But that's on me for not just asking) read more

Good bubble tea, great service. I ordered a dirty thai tea with coffee jelly and boba, less sweet. First one I received was thai tea with coffee grounds in it (not the kind of dirty i was looking for lol), but they happily remade it for me. They have an espresso machine, so the coffee flavor was nice and strong. Wish the thai tea and creaminess came through a bit more, but it was still delish. Boba was on the firmer side, coffee jelly was pretty standard. All the drinks use non-dairy creamer, which you can replace with a non-dairy milk too. I'd come back to break time again if I was in the area, but it's nothing I'd go out of my way for. read more
