Ding tea is hands down one of the best, if not the best, boba destinations in Tucson (either location). The boba pearl texture is consistently on point!! I also very much love their crystal boba and yakult offerings. Today, I stopped in for something super light and non-caffeinated. Kaleb, was very patient, gave me some recommendations, and made a great drink that wasn't too sweet/sugary! (I got the passion fruit juice with 1/3 the syrup and no extra sweetener plus boba and crystal). I also appreciate that the drinks are reasonably priced (the larger option was under $7). I will certainly be back and highly recommend you check out Ding tea for the quality and value. read more

Ding Tea Foothills - Passion fruit juice (1/3 syrup) with extra boba and crystal boba! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Casas Adobes, Arizona

Great tea and comfortable spot to hang out. Came with my daughter and her 3 kids - each of us got something different and we all tried each others' drinks. Not a bad drink amongst us! I had a mango green tea, 50% sweetness with passionfruit popping boba. Perfect drink. We all sat at a table and played one of the card games in their collection. Nice way to spend half an hour. Admittedly we were all a little overwhelmed by the menu since it was our first time there. The staff didn't really offer any assistance when they saw us struggling however a very nice customer helped us out. read more

Used to love this place and came daily. Came here for crème brûlée taro and the new special matcha Thai tea. They both tasted so off. The crème brûlée I can taste the pudding edge which I never had issue before now. The matcha Thai tea has Jazmin in it. Which I wish they would have put in description. I never had a Thai tea that has Jazmin in it. The service was slow for not many people in there. They didn't even call us when order was done. If they did we didn't even hear it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Some of menu items such as the Greek yogurt section is completely discontinued. They just need to update their menu and inside a little because it seems cluttered and unprofessional with post it notes all over the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think overall it's taken a hit of when I first started going. I used to rave best place to grab a drink. I think it's becoming mid like every other tea shop. read more

Great place to work and have some good tea! I had tried another location during yelp elite week. I like their selection of tea. I ordered a fruit tea with slight sweetness but it still came out super sweet for my taste. So I need to remember to say no sweet next time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have lots of outlet which is nice for those who like to bring a laptop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However their tables( I tried two) are wobbly so I hope they fix them.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Yay for Ding Tea! I hadn't been in here yet but tonight we tried it and I'm so glad we did. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love how pretty it is inside. It's cozy and chic. The layout is cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is easy to follow. I ordered a large Taro smoothie with black boba and cheese foam. It was such a tasty drink! I always enjoy a good taro flavor and loved their unique flavors and topping choices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My friend and I hung out in a cozy booth and got to watch one of the Soccer cup games on tv![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love their TVs and overall design of the cups and establishment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was friendly too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like that they also have a bathroom.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Glad that there's such a nice tea place to go to! read more

A super refreshing stop! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful and inviting interior with seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The person who took our order was welcoming, offered a greeting and a smile and was willing to help us with drink selections. We appreciated such fine customer service. We ordered the Mangonada. It was SO delicious! Sweet, spicy and sour mango slush with fresh golden boba. Can't wait to order it again. Also ordered a pitaya refresher that had fresh chunks of pitaya dragon fruit in it. Looks like it is a seasonal drink. It was very refreshing and beautiful to look at. The Mangonada was the winner for its unique flavor. The menu is extensive, so there is something for everyone. Recommend giving it a try. read more

My kids beg for boba from Ding's almost everyday. The texture is great and love that you can adjust the sweetness. We get the slush with golden boba and it's great! If you sign up for their rewards programs, they send some deals and coupons for use regularly. Definitely recommend signing up. read more

I like how you can customize the sweetness level and ice. Good milk tea. We ordered it for pickup to avoid waiting. We did not get to see the inside of the store. Next time, I will... I want to try more of their other drinks. read more

Ambiance is great for a meeting, to study, or to have desserts with friends after dinner. Service is great! They will fix your drink if you are not satisfied. The drink quality is consistent as the Grant Rd. location. Monster Boba/Brulee Latte: 5/5 A signature of Ding's Tea and my favorite go-to drink! It is a sweet, creamy milk drink that has the cup lined with and boba toppings basked in molasses-like brown sugar syrup. The boba toppings themselves can sometimes be hard, but when you happen to have them soft, they can elevate the drink to perfection! With the Brulee Latte, it is an additional $1.25, and it's basically Monster Boba Latte with Creme Brulee mixed in; the top layer has sugar sprinkled on and torched. Kumquat-Lemon Iced Tea: 5/5 I always get this sweet and sour drink with lychee jelly, 25% Ice and 0%-25% Sugar, depending on how the day went. Tips: Besides the Monster Boba/Brulee Latte, most drinks can have their ice and sugar level adjusted on a scale of 0-100%. They also have milk substitution. read more

We decided on a whim to pop in here for an afternoon pick me up and it was a great experience! We got a passion fruit green tea with half the sugar and boba and it was still pretty sweet, next time I'd go down even further on the sugar level. The boba had a great texture and the tea was flavorful and the herbal notes really came through. It tasted more natural than artificial, which I appreciated. The shop was clean and we got our drink super quick. The prices felt a little steep for the quantity of tea, but overall typical/fair for boba. We'll add this in our rotation when a boba craving hits! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I really like the vibes here and the staff are always nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Tea is also really good but I usually get the strawberry lemonade made with sparkling water instead. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only thing I don't like is the seating. It's really not that comfortable and with a tiny table but you kind of crammed in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]But overall it's a very chill place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Delicious mid-afternoon pick-me-up after a day trip to Kartchner Caverns in Tucson. I needed a bit of caffeine so got the Oolong milk tea with boba + herb jelly. I know it's an authentic Taiwanese boba spot if there is dairy-free options. The quality of the ingredients is high and the service was quick and friendly. There are several locations all over the world and I can't wait until they have one in NYC. read more

Super cute place and tasty drinks. I got the kumquat lemon iced tea at 0% sweetness and it was sweet and tart. I wouldn't go above 0% unless you like super sweet drinks, it's surprisingly already sweet without added sugar. Reasonable prices and friendly staff. Great place to hang out and chat with a friend. They have several games to play as well. read more

I'm actually so disappointed. I ordered the dragonfruit refresher and it was basically a cup of ice with a splash of flavor. I got MAYBE 6 pieces of dragonfruit cubes and the rest was just like the drinker maker fills my cup to the brim with ice like as if the workers were personally losing money if they added more anything but ice . If I'm ordering a refresher, I expect it to look at least somewhat like the picture. They were extremely stingy with the fruit and syrup, and it felt awkward even ordering, like I was inconveniencing them. What's worse is this place USED to be good, but now every time I come in (no matter the day or time), they're out of half the menu. At this point, just take those items off the menu if you never have them. For the price and the tip, the quality just isn't there anymore. The drinks are inconsistent, the portions are like very questionable. There are way too many boba places to justify coming back her. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Classic furniture with modern tech up front making the place feel upscale and produces fast service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drinks come out very quickly and tastes as expected. I've only ever had one thing and that's Taro Slush with Boba with normal sweetness and ice, I recommend! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was nice and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was friendly. There were only two people working, but they moved fast. We ordered honey milk tea with boba and blueberry refresher with the rainbow jelly. Best place to have Boba and milk tea by far. read more

We've gotten teas several times here so far. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside is cute and always incredibly clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Haven't interacted with any employees yet as we always order online and drinks are always waiting ready for pickup. Consistently good on the drinks. Good selection available too. read more

Ordered an oolong milk tea, regular sized, 1/2 ice and NO sugar. When it was first made, the tea tasted like it was nothing but swimming in syrup. Told the clerk to please remake since I clearly said NO sugar. He said he would remake it, but tried to walk back on what was done by saying the creamer they used has some sweetness to it. Yes I get the creamer may have a little sweetness already, which is why I ordered it with NO sugar. What's worse is that when he remade the drink, he dumped a ton of ice into a small regular sized cup (please see the picture for detail). The drink order was for 50% ice. Again, now both the clerk and the guy making the drink in the back tried to cover up their act by saying that he has to shake it with plenty of ice. This I also get, but that has NOTHING to do with the full amount of ice he put in the cup that he was going to give me. After finishing the drink about 45 minutes later, I pried open the lid cover to take a pic. See the amount of ice remaining in there (see photo). Imagine how full it was when it was first made. If that were 50% ice, is 100% ice - which is the normal amount of ice - suppose to fill the entire cup up so that you only get a few drops of the actual tea drink? This is utterly ridiculous. The fact that they can't follow a simple 0% sugar 50% ice milk tea, and then when asked to rectify the order, there's all these excuses rather than just apologize and remake it correctly. Most certainly won't be returning to this ding tea location. I've had a much better experience in the other Tucson location on Speedway. I normally let these things slip and don't leave bad yelp reviews. But felt very strongly after this interaction to let the public know. read more

Help! I moved right next to Ding Tea and now I can't stop going. The first time I came in the tea-rista recommended the lemon kumquat drink with the golden boba. I had that order inn repeat for a month. I finally tried something new. The strawberry lemonade tea with aloe Vera chunks I really recommend you trying this place out. They have a great ambiance going and even better service. read more

Had a delightful time at Ding Tea! My jasmine tea was delicious; refreshing with strong floral notes. It had the perfect amount of sweetness.

First time write reviews on Yelp. It's one of my favorite place, royal customer, come here twice a week. But... Last time, one of my drink orders, they completely forget to put sugar on it. This time, I checked the time and come in before they close. Wait for couple in front of me get the drink. Then my turn, they said they closed. Even I just order for to go. Just really disappointed! I think I need to looking for a different place. read more

They used to offer organic dairy and unfortunately have switched to a highly processed and toxic non-dairy powder based creamer and regular Kirkland dairy whole milk. Their oat milk is organic but contains seed oils. So disappointing. read more

This location has beautiful decor and a great seating area. I ordered 2 drinks, both with black boba and they were the best consistency: soft with a chew. I got a brown sugar milk tea and a taro slush. My slush wasn't very slushy, i think there wasn't enough ice added but the flavor was still there. Their menu offers a wide variety so you can try a different combination each time. read more

Yelp did not recommend my last review for this place. But they currently have no reviews and it isn't right. I've been multiple times since discovering this place. The drinks are great and it turned me on to boba. The atmosphere is always very chill in there, with furniture to match. Lastly, the workers have always been very friendly and explain a lot of the menu when I've been confused. read more
