Sharetea is a chain, so I expected a pretty generic taste, but I was pleasantly surprised. I like…read morethat this location feels a bit more individual, though I think I may have ordered the wrong drink. I got the grapefruit Earl Grey seasonal drink with aloe. The first sip was refreshing with the grapefruit flavor, but the Earl Grey and bergamot quickly took over and became incredibly strong. It ended up tasting a little too bitter, yet also a bit too sweet, even though I ordered it with half sugar. The shop was a little messy, though I couldn't tell if that was because of the Halloween decorations. There's a self-service ordering kiosk at the front, and the staff were fast and friendly. The space is brightly lit with a cute backdrop for taking pictures with your drink. I'm definitely coming back to try a different flavor. If the Earl Grey is this bold, I'm curious to see how their other teas compare.

Let me preface by saying that when I rate bubble tea places, I usually compare them in relation to…read moreKung Fu Tea because Kung Fu Tea's bubble tea isn't the best but it isn't the worst. It's not my go to spot but it's always a safe option when that boba craving hits. And they have a good variety when it comes to milky and fruiter options. For additional context, I usually prefer fruit teas and adjust the sugar level (typically one level below 100% sweetness.). After trying a handful of their drinks, I would rank Sharetea as being around the same level as Kung Fu Tea. Overall, the drinks are similarly artificial with no distinct tea or fresh fruit flavor. The drinks at Sharetea are also too sweet even with an adjustment to the sugar level; even after reducing the sugar level to 80% or 50%, the drink is sometimes still too sweet. Additionally, the pearls are mediocre at best because they lack flavor and sometimes aren't fully cooked. Drink Ordered: * worth trying - [Wintermelon Lemonade with 50% Sweetness]: I didn't personally like this. The wintermelon flavor tasted a bit off. - [Passionfruit, Orange, and Grapefruit Tea with Pearls and 50% Sweetness]: Even with the sugar adjustment, I thought this was too sweet. The flavor of the drink is similar to the German Shepard, which I would choose over this drink. - [Lime Mojito with 80% Sweetness*]: My favorite drink here. Some may say the drink is too sour with the sugar adjustment but I think it's just right. -[Mango Mojito with 80% Sweetness]: Too sweet. It might taste better if I lower the sugar level further but it still isn't as good as the Lime Mojito. -[Golden Retriever with Black Tea and 80% Sweetness*]: Part of the Chubby Puppies Series. This is a milk tea with pearls, mini pearls, pudding, herb jelly, and lychee jelly. Be prepared for the large amount of toppings. -[German Shepard with 80% Sweetness*]: Part of the Chubby Puppies Series. This is a grapefruit green tea with pearls, mini pearls, aiyu jelly, aloe vera, and lychee jelly. This is probably my second go to drink. Be prepared for the large amount of toppings. I've had some of the other drinks like the Honey Lemonade with Aloe Vera and Thai Tea Ice Blended with Pearl but I felt like they were too unmemorable to mention in the list above. Would I go back? : Yes but it's mainly out of convenience. Sharetea is not my top choice when it comes to bubble tea but it's proximity to where I live, the Asian grocery store I frequent, and Ba Le make this a bubble tea place I usually find myself at. Also, certain drinks that they have like the Lime Mojito and the German Shepard and Golden Retriever give Sharetea that extra edge that results in me choosing Sharetea over Kung Fu Tea every time.

currently my favorite milk tea spot in philly!…read more molly tea is such a great milk tea chain and i was very happy that one opened in philly. i've been numerous times since opening, and have even doordashed from here when i didn't have the time to make it out to the shop. i absolutely love jasmine milk tea, so my go-to order is the premium jasmine milk tea. they share a space with nan xiang express so it's super convenient to grab a bite while there. the shop is small but efficient, and the quality is always consistent. their packaging is beautiful and high quality, the to-go orders are meticulously packed to maintain their temperature and prevent leaking. unfortunately, it looks like they just announced on their instagram that they are temporarily closed for renovations, but crossing my fingers that they will reopen soon! absolutely worth a visit if you are a fan of jasmine milk tea.

More like a 2.5 but I'll round up to a 3…read more Went here during a big Chinatown festival and was surprised it was pretty empty. Ordered a mango boba tea half sugar low ice, plus popcorn chicken and sausages to go. The boba tea was just standard boiled boba with no extra sweetness or infusion. If you like less sweet drinks this might work for you, but it felt pretty plain. They also use powdered flavoring instead of fresh fruit, which brings it down a notch. Food was better. Definitely Taiwanese street food style. The popcorn chicken had that classic crispy coating and seasoning, just a bit toned down in flavor. Same with the sausage, slightly sweet and savory but not as bold as I expected. Portions were very generous though, you get a lot for the price. Service was the main issue. The staff, who seemed like the owner, was very short and came off rude. I saw it happen to the people in front of me too, so I kept it quick and did not ask many questions. The space itself is also kind of dark and gloomy, but it is quiet if you want to sit and talk. Even though I ordered everything to go, it was not really acknowledged. When my food was ready, the owner actually came up and almost took my order away as if it was not mine. I had to stop him and point out each item line by line on my receipt to prove it was my order because he forgot. I understand food theft happens, but it made the whole interaction feel really awkward and uncomfortable. They also only give small brown paper sandwich bags for takeout, so if you have a bigger order, bring your own bag. Overall, I would come back for the food if I am craving Taiwanese street snacks, but skip the boba and definitely stick to takeout.

My apologies, when I say the sweetest, I meant their sugar level in drinks. I bought a Oolong Milk Tea with no ice tonight, and holy moly the drink is too overly sweet.

Service was a bit slow but there is only two personnel in there. The cashier was taking orders and making the drinks. She wasn't unfriendly or anything.

So fascinating. I thought I was going to have to rough it out through another green coconut drink in order to compare these two locations properly, but it turns out this location doesn't even have green coconut as an option (which is what I got at the other location- spoiler, I would not recommend)! This was the first green flag, and it only got better from there. Even though I love special, unique drinks as much as the next person, I think you gotta have that good old fashioned bubble tea staple store that just serves everything all in one place. I'm talking whatever you're craving, whatever flavors you want at any given point in time, they'll have it. And Tea Do is just that: their menu is huge and extensive, and you're bound to find something that you feel like having. We ordered (rating): Sakura Rose Milk Tea with Boba (3.7/5), The Grasshopper (3.5/5), The Hulk (4/5), Oolong Milk Tea with Boba (4.2/5), Jasmine Milk Tea with Boba (5/5) I got their sakura rose milk tea which was one of their recommended drinks. I wouldn't say I get rose milk teas a lot, but I'd say this was one of the better ones I've had because both the rose and the tea parts of the drink stood out on their own! Some years ago I compared components of boba drinks to main and side characters, so I am thrilled that we have two main characters here. On the other end, though, this tea did lean more watery rather than creamy. What did stay consistent across the two stores was the boba, which comes a bit softer than our ideal texture, but the sweetness of the sugar that they must have steeped these boba in definitely shined through. I wouldn't say they tasted like brown sugar boba, but my sister says that they did; point being that you'll get some kind of sugary taste and isn't that all you really need to know?

The grapefruit was delicious. It came with a slice of grapefruit inside to make it look nice. This is something I haven't really seen at many other places before. Location is nice for people that live or work in center city, but the traffic around here is horrendous.
