    Not overhyped. The drinks are sooo yummy. The customer service was also super helpful. Pretty spacious with some chairs to sit inside. Very vibey. Both the Peach Oolong Lemon Tea and Roasted Black Tea Latte were delicious. The peach oolong definitely needs to be drank right away because the lemon can make it a bit bitter. Plenty of parking in lots around and through the street!

    10/10 Roasted Black Tea - This is definitely high quality tea, but damn, this drink is tiny for that hefty price tag!! Cost - $8.23

    An excellent alternative for caffeine lovers and possibly a purer substitute. The interior is stunning, with a sleek, modern aesthetic that feels reminiscent of a contemporary Asian coffee house. A standout feature is the curated timeline of tea history in China, which adds a cultural layer to the experience. What truly sets this teahouse apart is its custom, espresso-style tea machine, where cutting-edge technology meets centuries-old tradition. I tried the BOYA Tea Latte (Jasmine Green), and it was DELICIOUS. The taste was nutty, subtly sweet, and beautifully extracted. However, the only drawback is the price, which runs higher than a typical Americano. They also offer a small souvenir section, including elegant porcelain cups for around $25.

    I've been wanting to try Chagee tea house for a while so decided to visit this location on 2nd street in Long Beach. Definitely worth it. I tried their peach latte tea over ice. It was delicious, very fragrant and tasty. I wish they had more dairy options other than whole milk. Would prefer a fat free or 2%. They did have oat milk for nondairy option. Service was great, everyone was very friendly and helpful. Ambiance is very nice. Peaceful ambiance and the decor was very pretty.

    This location is beautiful! Was able to find ample street parking in the neighborhood on a weekday afternoon. There was no wait. There is plenty of small seating and the inside/outside set up lifts up the mood (large windows out onto the street). Although there are plenty of nooks, every table was taken by someone so you have to be lucky to grab a workspace. Staff were really friendly. I signed up for the app and saw they have 10% off Wednesdays for members. I'm a fan of the roasted oolong, and my friends are huge fans of the Ceylon. Feels great to come here :)

    Interior ambiance -- so much green!

    I strolled in on Wednesday night at around 9:15 pm. I was like chagee? I've seen this on social media and thought we had to travel far to LA to experience this greatness. Much to my surprise, the Yelp review on this page are all high quality. As an elite, that is rare to see. Unfortunately as it was late night, I couldn't try any of the drinks due to the caffeine content but I was surprised to see that the menu was so simple. Additionally, the baristas there are amazing! The he gave great customer service as Justin took his time in explaining the WHOLE menu to me even though he knew I couldn't buy anything as there aren't any decaf. I promised I would soon return. All the tea have amazing sounding name like peach jasmine (I think) or oolong with latte milk. It all looks reasonably priced as well. But I'm also here for the ambiance! It is very nice and modern inside with plenty of nice seating arrangements and greenery. It's like a picture out of a magazine. I would love to chat with others here as every corner had someone talking. I can't wait to come back and update the review with the drinks but going off the other reviews which I trust, it seems like I won't regret it. Update: the following day (which is today), I visited early in the morning and ordered a large BOYA jasmine green tea latte with everything at the default setting. To my surprise I received 2 jasmine green tea sachets for free due to their promotion. I also noticed when I walked in the morning, Phillip greeted me from inside even before I walked into the store from the outside! Now that's customer service! Inside smelt like a delicious fragrance, I thought it was nice cologne or perfume but it was just tea as the baristas pointed it out!! Another patron who was sitting down, said thanks for the compliment, I'll take it! But he was kidding haha. Chagee should definitely make their own scent collection of fragrances, I would buy them! The Boya jasmine green tea latte tasted amazing the moment I sipped on the unique stir straw. It's a perfect blend of milk and tea that reminded me of 7 leaves but some tastefully! I was sipping it all day! The caffeine content is as much as a coffee but thankfully, I ordered the tea at around 9:45 am so it shouldn't affect my sleep schedule too much. I would definitely come back to this hidden gem on 2nd street.

    Peach Oolong Tea Latte (less ice, less sugar) is my go-to! Strong peachy notes, fragrant, and refreshing

    High quality and super aromatic tea! Of the three I've tried (Amber Oolong Tea, Boya Jasmine Green Tea, Peach Oolong Tea), the Peach Oolong Tea Latte (less ice, less sugar) easily stood out! Strong peachy notes, fragrant, and refreshing without being overly sugary. This place is warm, minimalist, and beautifully zen. Perfect for slowing down, sipping your drink, maybe cracking open a book, or catching up with a friend. Also worth noting: the staff here are incredibly patient and friendly. They happily took time to help us pick something we'd actually enjoy. Overall, this spot is a peaceful little escape with great tea! Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I need a reset.

    The modern chic decor transports all visitors to a tranquil mental retreat. The vibe here is so relaxing that it invites people to slow down and really allow the tea to do its magic. It's replenishment for the soul. It helps that the tea is freshly brewed and tastes amazing, but your brain drinks the entire experience, not just the tea. I am also a huge fan of Laufey, so seeing her sponsorship and listening to her music in the background makes me even happier.

    Tried Chagee for the first time and it was at this location in LB. The shop is super fancy and not sure because it was still their soft opening, or this is how it will be, but their menu is super simple and there is NO boba... I embarrassed myself and asked for boba even though I didn't see anything about boba on the menu either and I usually DON'T even like boba.. not sure what possessed me to ask for it, maybe I just wanted to try asking it at a place like this for the sake of it. I got a Ceylon black tea latte, with oatmilk. Basically you can get any of their loose leaf tea with milk and it becomes a latte or "milk tea". Can adjust sweetness to your liking. The whole shop is super fancy and posh and so were the staff. I think tea-wise, it is okay, didn't really wow me. Very similar to other similar concept tea shop like T2 or Teavana. Super fancy take-out cups and straw. I have some friends who are obsessed with them and I can't quite figure out WHY. But, they were willing to stand in line for hours at their store grand-openings for free bag, mug, and other cool items. South Coast Plaza is opening a location soon in the summer, or so, not sure when, but my friends already told me to plan for it to go with them to get the free stuff. I think the draw is their free canvas bag is a Dior dupe, so people love to get their hands on them. I have to admit they are so cute and adorable, (my friend showed me). So, verdict is, would I come back? Yes, if I'm in the mood for expensive tea and in the area and if I have time to sip and enjoy the tea. Would I go out of my way to get Chagee? No.

    Tea: 8/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10 This spot is for true tea lovers who also appreciate a calm, well-designed ambiance. The team in you is sparse but has the variety of teas that most true tea lovers: black tea, green tea and oolong tea. You can enjoy any of their teas in pure form or latte form (I highly recommend trying their peach oolong tea pure or with minimal sugar). The interior design Is elevated and designed with impeccable taste. There are a lot of organic shapes, soft, warm lighting, and ample seating and outlets for those. Looking for a place to work outside of home. The service is excellent too! The young lady at the register was kind enough to discreetly. Tell me my fly was down when I walked in. And I am so grateful to her. My only constructive feedback is I wish they offered something complimentary to the teas, some type of food or snack item. I wanted to sit for a long period of time to do some reading with my tea but I got hungry it had to leave.

    We went on a wednesday around 4 PM. I got the BOYA jasmine latte and peach oolong milk tea. They were both really good. The service was amazing and the staff even informed us of a 10% off promotion. It wasn't busy when we went during that time. They have a lot of seating area for people to chat and do some work. The parking situation is a bit difficult. There is a lot of paid parking but free parking on the street is really hard to find. The parking on the street was all filled up. Definitely a place to check out!

    Amber oolong tea latte iced
    Norma S.

    Came here on a saunday around 1pm small wait to order. Got the amber oolong tea latte with oat milk. It was good sweetness and size was big for a regular. Taste was smooth. Seating inside. Back parkinglot is 15 minutes free. All in all good tea.

    Love this spot!! The quality is great. I always go for the BOYA Jasmine. Actually just flew to China for a business trip and tried various milk teas there only to realize that what we have here in LA slaps and is just as good. You don't have to fly halfway across the world to get great tea from the source. My only recommendation is do not order the oat milk version. Try to drinks AS-IS. Luckily the first time I ordered a few drinks, I tried oat milk versions as well as regular default milk versions. The default milk works MUCH better with the drinks. Although I'm lactose intolerant, I just suck it up and take a lactaid and it's worth it

It felt like I was being singled out for no reason, and the repeated attention was embarrassing and unnecessary. This is a coffee shop. We're not trying to budge the line just because we're brown people. I've never been to a coffee shop where employees were so focused on making a customer feel uncomfortable instead of simply serving people. It completely devastated my peace and made what should have been a quick coffee stop feel awkward and hostile. Customer service isn't just about making drinks--it's about making people feel welcome. Unfortunately, this experience did the exact opposite. I won't be returning, and I certainly can't recommend this location to anyone looking for a relaxed atmosphere.
