    A glimpsed view of the shop
    Deon S.

    This is my first time to this shop, let's see how it went: There is no street parking, you would actually have to go around the block to the apartment building garage and temporarily park if you can. The inside of the shop has just enough lighting combined with the outside ambient light to brighten up whatever is being served to you. The service was nice and friendly and Cashless. The drink l had was the Matcha lavender tea; it was good. I will come back to try more items on the Wall menu . Nice job

    Oreo Thai ice tea
    John P.

    Brew Cha makes the ordering experience super easy since you order at a kiosk, no line pressure, and my drink was ready in about 5-7 minutes. Fast and painless. I went for the Oreo Thai Iced Tea, which is exactly what it sounds like: Thai tea topped with Oreo crumbles. It wasn't bad at all, but I found the two flavors didn't quite complement each other as they kind of just coexisted in the same cup rather than coming together into something greater. I think blending everything together might actually unlock the combination better, so that could be worth trying if you're curious about this one. One thing to note: I ordered with regular ice, and since the tea itself is served warm at the base, the ice melted pretty quickly so my drink went lukewarm within about 10 minutes. If you're ordering something similar, I'd definitely recommend asking for extra ice to keep things cold longer. Overall, a good boba spot with a fun menu worth exploring. I'll be back but I just know now to branch out and try something different next time.

    I absolutely despise matcha but this drink made me reconsider. It was absolutely delicious. And the hints of crème brûlée, wow! 10/10

    Parking: free lot in the back Service: took about 10 mins Drink: I liked the many different drink options. The matcha was not bad 4/5. I enjoyed the sesame taste added. Boba was not great. Not a top matcha spot for me, but would try a different drink if I was in the area.

    It took me a while to try this place because I know the parking is really bad in that area. But man do I regret not coming here sooner. The drinks are actually so good, very unique, and the quality is great. Definitely need to try more of their drinks. Parking tip, if there isn't any parking inside, go park in the back street by where Safeway is. There are so many different options, but their specialty drinks are the best! Service is pretty fast, you order at a kiosk. There's benches at each end inside so you can wait and chill. What I've had so far: Creme Brulee Milk Tea - So good!! I'd recommend less sweet to balance it out tho. The bruleed top is the besttt texture!! Ube Taro Milk - This was legit so good, I HATE when Ube things don't taste like ube fr. This was so ube-y and I love that it was also taro. Banana Milk Tea - For true banana fans, this was definitely real and fresh banana. Better than the cute banana milk in a box.

    Crème brûlée matcha and hojicha
    Todd N.

    My friend and I stopped by Brew Cha while we were in the area since the reviews were great, but we ended up pretty disappointed. Both drinks, even though we ordered them at 50% sweetness, were way too sweet - closer to 100% / past that. I could understand the crème brûlée drink being a little sweeter, but even my friend's hojicha leaned more toward chocolate powder than the roasted hojicha flavor we were expecting. The boba was mushy with almost no chew, which made it pretty unenjoyable. On top of that, the crème brûlée topping separated when mixed into the drink, becoming chunky instead of smooth. I've had crème brûlée-style boba drinks elsewhere, and they usually blend well and add a nice layer of flavor, so this felt like an odd experience. On the bright side, the service and space were genuinely great. The shop is bright, there's a comfy couch, and parking was easy. Overall, I really wanted to like this place, but the drinks just didn't land for us. I'm willing to give it another try and chalk this up to bad luck or end-of-day timing.

    Tiramisu
    Fiona T.

    It was really busy when I went in the middle of the day. It only took 8 minutes for my drink to come out even though there were drinks ahead of me. I got the $7.60 24 oz tiramisu milk tea. It tasted like a normal milk tea with tiramisu cream and powder on top. It was okay. I liked their banana milk drink a lot better. The space is really small. It gets a bit tight if a lot of people are waiting inside for their drinks.

    Food: - We got the Black Sesame Matcha Latte and the Red Bean Matcha Latte - I liked the Black Sesame a bit more, it was grainy but it tasted better with the matcha (7/10) - The red bean was cold and the bean was harder than I would've liked so it was kind of hard to enjoy in a drink (6/10) - Matcha in both wasn't that strong either - Lots of drinks to choose from - 6/10 Service: - Server was nice - Very few people so the drinks were served in a few minutes - 8/10 Ambiance: - Place was kind of hard to park and find, it in the middle of a couple of other businesses in one big building and Apple Maps wasn't directing us to the right place - Small, no seating - meant to grab and go - 6/10 Overall Rating: 6/10

    I checked out this new boba spot called Brew Cha and I really liked the self-service kiosk setup. They had a huge variety of drinks to choose from, which I loved. I tried the crème brûlée milk tea with boba and it was so tasty with really good flavor. Parking kinda sucks here, but overall I had a great experience. The service was nice and fast, and the workers were friendly. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their flavors.

    Black Sugar Tiramisu Coffee Latte
    Stephanie L.

    Small boba spot located next to StarBird, mostly for grab & go. There are two kiosks where you can order. I got their black sugar series: Black Sugar Tiramisu Coffee Latte, Black Sugar Matcha Latte, and Black Sugar Creme Brûlée Latte. Their Black Sugar Tiramisu Coffee Latte was really good, both strong in coffee and tiramisu. I noticed they don't have much coffee drinks, they should add more! The matcha latte was pretty good. It's actually a good combo. The crème brûlée was really sweet and milky for my liking. Their boba was really soft, which is great.

    Ube Taro Latte, Fresh Mango Tea
    Kristi I.

    The Fresh Mango Tea was exactly as advertised--fresh and mango-y. I don't mind fruit teas made with syrup, but I can also appreciate fresh fruit teas made with real fruit purée. The boba was nice and sweet, but I personally prefer my boba cooked a tad bit longer. I wouldn't say the boba was undercooked, but it was definitely more on the chewy side. The service was friendly. We were greeted when we entered, and the employee patiently waited while we took some time scrolling through the menu on the self-order kiosks. This is a takeout only place. There are two benches to sit on while you wait for your drinks, but there are no tables for hanging out.

    Ube taro latte
    Alli W.

    Tried their chestnut crème brûlée latte and wasn't a fan. Lacks the creaminess and it tastes bland, like majority of their drinks. Their ube taro latte is still their best drink I'd always come back for!

    This is Brew Cha's second location in the bay area, with their original flagship in the Mission in SF. I came here for the soft opening discount, and yes it did take half an hour to get our drinks, but that's fine as I suspect that's not the same after the initial hype. While the parking here is a lot better than SF, it's a small lot behind the shop, so you're still at the mercy of people being randomly active in the area. They happen to be next to a Starbird, if you're looking for something to eat with your drink! There is standing room only (and barely) at this location. - Roasted Oolong Tea The temperature for the hot tea is hot yet drinkable, and there's an extra charge to add any milk option. We had it with organic whole milk, and while you can taste the tea, I would have liked it to be creamier and more roasted in flavor; the mixture of tea, sugar, and milk didn't quite give us the satisfaction as a hot milk tea usually does. - Brew Cha Fruit Tea with black boba Boba was warm with a firm chewiness, flavored, and good. Tea strength was great and appropriate for 25% sweetness, and I think they were true to the less ice modification. The top was oddly foamy, but the fruits were fresh, which is what you prioritize in these combination fruit teas. It states there are strawberry, lime, apple, and oranges in here, and it tasted like a good balance between the citrus and sweet fruits. I like that every drink has the option to add free black boba (other toppings are an additional cost). They have enough variety to satisfy most people's flavor preferences, and their prices are fair for boba these days. While not many things draw me in to travel to SSF these days, if I do happen to be around, Brew Cha is a solid choice for tea.

Somewhat spicy so not entirely sure what that was. But my tastebuds were a bit confused.

Sadly the sauces were add-on charges. The Taro Espresso was a refreshing sweet drink that my wife enjoyed. This Quickly will now be one of our regular haunts for a quick bite while in the area.

And it came unseasoned, meaning you could add as much chili powder and salt & pepper as you wanted, both of which are available in shakers at the counter. Since it wasn't too busy, I took one shaker of each to my table. Most people coming in were getting drinks and food to go. There are several tables inside, as well as ample parking in the lot.

I didn't know my order was ready because the drink I ordered didn't look like what I ordered. I asked an older lady behind the counter if she had my order, she confirmed it was the drinks I was looking at. I tell her that my order is wrong, and she argues that we ordered extra sago (not the drink I was talking about) She didn't let me explain that I was referring to the mango drink with pearls until I had to raise my voice- still being polite, but wanting to address why my drink had pearls. She laughed and said I ordered them. I had selected the option for "no sago" but didn't realize it meant you get pearls instead. They didn't have an option to omit the sago. Anyhow, once we both realize the mistake, and I tell her it was an accident, she shoves the drink to me and turns around to walk away. I tell her I don't want it and she laughs and says, it's what you ordered. Didn't offer to make a new one - despite being an honest mistake (based on a crappy ordering platform). I've spent a good amount of money here and felt disrespected. I won't be coming back.
