    Only flavor on the top layer
    Janey T.

    I usually love Coffee or Tea but maybe it was just this location. The store wasn't busy but there was only 1 girl taking the orders and making the drinks. She was sweet and I felt so bad for her since she was trying to hurry. A male worker came in towards the end of the rush. When I asked him a question he responded "WHAT?" in such a rude tone. When we got in the car and started to eat the shave ice, we realized that there was only flavoring on the top layer! Even after we mixed the shave ice together there was barely any flavor since it was mostly ice without syrup! The drinks were alright. With the endless amount of boba shops on the island, there's no need to settle for somewhere that has terrible customer service, mediocre drinks and shave ice with no syrup. Very disappointed.

    Refreshing beverage in Waipio, Oahu, Hawaii... We were filling up with gasoline at Costco when we searched our Yelp app for some boba tea... We found Coffee or Tea? nearby and recognized the name. We have been to the Kailua and Honolulu locations... we haven't been to the Aiea shop yet... The prices seem lower than other brands! Coffee or Tea? has many choices! We decided to get the Mango iced green tea... it wasn't too sweet! We liked the tea flavor, mixed with the fruity essence! We'll be back for the pleasant environment, free parking, and efficient, friendly service! Thank you!

    Jumbo assam milk tea with boba 25% sweet

    It had been a long 3 days in the hospital and my wife and I needed a quick boba fix on the way home. I had to order 8 drinks for the rest of the family, too. They do a great job getting the orders done in a timely manner and they packaged it well enough for me to not need to make two trips from the store to my car. The milk tea itself is really smooth. Sometimes, in rare occasions such as this, we end up not finishing our drink in one sitting. The next day was a nice surprise as the boba was not hard as normal boba typically is the next day. So if you're looking for a good same day AND next day fix then this place does it. Inside the store is orderly. I really like the polished stone tables they have.

    Love this place!!! Staff is always friendly and it's always nice and clean. Every chance I have when I am near, I buy their milk tea, the best IMO. and the boba is perfect. Prices are really good and they have ginger milk tea, which is hard to find here. When you have a chance, go check them out!!!

    Shaved ice sweet and tart #6
    Tammy L.

    First time trying their shaved ice. I ordered #6 which had the sweet and tangy flavors. I liked the combo of sweet and sour and I'm a big fan of the plum. It was a bit too sweet for me though, and I'll ask for less of the strawberry topping next time. Service was quick and nice. There are seats inside to enjoy your goodies.

    Drinks were very tasty! They have a lot of delicious Asian snacks too! I'd recommend the potato chips

    This place is the #1 spot for that quick boba fix. This is one of the OG places that started the boba-craze and they always find ways to come up with new and refreshing drinks. A big bonus is that their drinks always taste the same and the prices are very reasonable too. Some of my favorites are the classic milk tea with boba, blended milk tea, watermelon smoothie, and avocado smoothie. Service here is very good as the workers always say welcome or greet you when you come in. And usually there are only 2-3 workers but even when they are busy making all the orders, they find a way to multi-task and get the drinks out quickly. The little cafe has some seating spots inside and ive seen a few people use it as a study spot as well. The place is always very well cleaned and up-kept. So glad that they decided to open a location in Waipio! Pro-tip, they also do party size drinks where you can bring to your next party! Just order it a day in advanced and you can get enough boba milk tea for a whole party for a reasonable price too!

    Went there a little after 5 p.m. Possibly due to the social distancing many places barely have many people in line. Today I was the only customer there. Ordered a drink for hubs from a poster outside the shop: Pineapple Passion fruit drink with lychee jelly. I told the man taking my order I was still deciding on my drink. He asked what I usually get. I told him Tiger Sugar Milk Tea but it's too sweet. He said we can adjust the sugar on any of our drinks. I asked 25% sugar? He said okay and proceeded to complete the two drink orders for me. I questioned him, really slow or people coming in slowly? He said it's not bad yet, pretty regular. That was good to hear. I'm just glad I didn't have to worry about keeping 6 feet distancing from other customers.

    Inside seating is open again :)

    tldr; 1. Anything is good but I like - Green Tea Shake, Milk Tea (any flavor), and their Peach Iced Black Tea 2. If you go to any of their locations all of their drinks are consistently good and made exactly the same 3. Good vibes to study or get some work done I have been a loyal customer of Coffee or Tea for almost a decade now (since 2011!), and I can confidently say that they have consistently delivered amazing drinks throughout the years. I have visited their McCully, Aiea, and Waipio locations, and can attest that all of their drinks taste just as good in any of their branches. One thing that I love about Coffee or Tea is that they offer a quiet and cozy environment that's perfect for getting some work done. As someone who lives on the West side, it's hard to find a coffee shop that's not too crowded and noisy, so I always appreciate the chill vibes. I have tried almost everything on their menu, but my top favorites are the Green Tea Shake (they use Dave's green tea ice cream), Milk Tea with Boba (and Cheese Foam occasionally), and Peach Iced Black Tea. Overall, Coffee or Tea is the perfect boba shop for anyone who wants to enjoy great drinks in a relaxing environment. Even though there are many new and trendy boba places popping up, I always find myself coming back to my OG 1st love Coffee or Tea. Highly recommended!

    Everything was A-OK. Parking - good. lots of stalls on a weekday. Tea - Lavender milk tea didn't taste like lavender at all. Too sweet. Price - fair. Seating - nice large table in the back, great for studying with your friends, if you don't mind the super loud blender going off. What I didn't like was the fact that the server was coughing...everywhere; without covering. I know people get sick and you can't take time off from work, but a mask would have been nice. I was worried that I was going to catch whatever was making her cough and hark because I had a very important function to attend this weekend, that I could NOT miss under any circumstances. I did not get sick and I did not miss my important function, but it added a degree of apprehension on my part.

I don't get to the Waipio location often, as I'm generally in the area only to shop at Foodland, grab a burger at Big City Diner, or a plate of lechon at Shay's, so an extravagant drink is the farthest thing from my thoughts. That changed last week when I saw a photo of the drink that called out to me, a Mango Sticky Rice Smoothie. Suddenly al other meals were put on hold, and there was only one possible way to get through my day- follow the siren's song straight into this small but sweet boba shop! Sure enough, this smoothie was completely worth the visit, and will probably bring me back again before it is gone. The smoothie was a simple mango cream with some coconut, but it sat atop a scoop of still warm Thai sticky rice and under a scoop of diced mango, which had of c ourselves been drizzled with sweetened condensed milk. The only thing it was a missing was a salty element, so I added a sprinkle of flaky salt once I made it home. I was only there for a short visit, but the employees were so very sweet to me and to the other customers there with me that day. If you find yourself wanting a sweet treat and are anywhere near Waipio, Teapresso is a fantastic choice for your time and money.

It was a good way of passing time while we waited for our order. * Service: Quick and easy ordering.
