Delicious boba, delicious food - yum! Got my boba, onigiri, popcorn chicken, and fries to go and brought them back to Dolores (a fairly quick walk) and was the envy of all my friends. I was nice and shared. Great place! Can't wait to go back! Also, the owners Cyn and Kim are lovely. read more

Came here on a weekday morning for a spontaneous brunch and I was quite impressed by the variety of great Asian food and drinks! The spam musubi had too much rice and the HK milk tea was a bit too bitter for my tastes, but the fries were good and the garlic aioli is to-die-for. I would be willing to come here again to try some of their other options but did not like what I ordered this first go-around. The staff is super friendly and helpful! District Tea is great for grab-and-go food & drinks to bring over to Mission Dolores Park for a peaceful picnic. :) read more

Small, cozy little boba shop in the Mission district. Doesn't really have seating, but there's a little nook with a ledge by the widow you can sit by and use as a table if it's available. Ordered the Twin Peaks fruit tea and the karaage and both were good. Overall I think both were good for what you spend. Owner was really nice and the employees were very accommodating. If you're in the Mission and looking for a good boba place, this place is worth your time. read more

First visit since pandemic. I visited the shop many times during pandemic. It small boba shop at mission. It was nice shop. I remember the first time I came during pandemic, they only took order and served the drink via the small front window. Beside boba milk tea, they also have fruit tea, small bites. They even have half gallon size. The drink is customizable like sweetness, ice level, milk option , size and milk choice. I was around Clarion Alley at the other side and remember this shop at the other side and I stopped by to get my favorite mangonada drink with crystal boba. I was nice to have the mangonada again. If you are at mission area , you should give it a try. read more

I decided to try the Pacific Heights: seasonal pineapple and lime fruit tea, uses jasmine tea. I set it to easy (30) sweet, easy ice, and I opted for a straw which is compostable. At the time, it would have costed $0.85 more if wanted to upgrade to large. You can order with a kiosk in the store, and it was made within 3 minutes. The drink was pretty good, refreshing, fruity, without being too sweet. I did feel it was a little on the small side relative to price though. read more

Thought they had really interesting no flavor options, but maybe I ordered wrong. We asked for half sweet and instead of telling us they couldn't they made our drinks 30% sweet. The fruit in the tea was very subtle because of this, but the mungbean tea was nice and nutty just kind of thick and grainy. read more

I ordered through DoorDash and I was so disappointed when I received my order. I've never had a Korean corn dog look like this! I wouldn't care if it tasted good but it was burnt too! Whoever made these today 07/06/26 needs more training asap. Sadly, I don't know if I'd risk ordering from here again. read more

District Tea - Korean Corn Dog, misshapen and inedible. - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

LOVE this place! We visited from San Diego and this was recommended by my local friends. It's hard to find a boba place that also has non caffeine options for the kiddos (or preggo mamas) and the mango drink we ordered wasnt too sweet for my toddler and she truly did not want to share . Their food/snack options are excellent- we got chicken karage and the egg salad sando and both were delicious. Recommend getting these! The bread on the egg salad was super soft! The menu options have something for everyone without being overwhelming, without being overpriced, and not overly sweet. We will be back for sure read more

Cute little tea place that's a short walk from Dolores Park! They have a wide variety of drinks and offerings beyond just the generic teas and milk teas, including their popular Hong Kong Milk Tea and Mung Bean Latte. I'm a huge fan of grass jelly, so their Ice Grass Jelly drink with condensed milk is a sweet treat that evokes nostalgia for my Taiwanese taste buds. Their small bites are also great, with a variety of Chinese/Taiwanese, Japanese, and Korean offerings, including popcorn chicken, takoyaki, katsu sando, and Korean corn dog. They even offer a picnic pack for 2 for $32.50, so if you want to go for a picnic (like a nice date, or even go with a friend), that's a nice option. It's a tiny place, so there's no seating in here. But it seems to be a popular choice to pick up something here if you're going to hang out in the area, especially at Dolores Park. read more

We were looking for boba shops in the are and decided to give District Tea a try. Parking is difficult to find, it's a very busy area. Luckily, I was with my siblings and they went to order the drinks while I waited in the car. I got the Hong Kong Milk Tea and thought that it was quite average. It tasted a little water down as well. My siblings also thought that their drinks were just okay. We probably won't be coming back since the drinks were just okay, but the snacks do look tasty. read more

I am on the hunt for the ultimate popcorn chicken and this place was a complete DISAPPOINTMENT!! I ordered delivery (this was the second time and I rely on it due to being disabled) and tried to call the restaurant at least 8 times (because there is no place in the DD app to request anything) but there was no answer. I asked my delivery person to ask for extra seasoning powder for the chicken and he advised me that they refused. Without the seasoning powder they put on the side, the chicken is very boring!! I also ordered the tater tots and they were boring as well. Since they don't really care about customer service, this will be my last order and wont be giving them any more of my money. UPDATE to my review: It's not cool to LIE!! I was on the phone with my delivery person when they asked you and I heard the response!!!! read more

District Tea - This is what counts for an adequate amount of seasoning powder???? - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

Tried their Popcorn Chicken and Mixed Onigiri (Salmon and Tuna Onigiri recently)! I got their food to-go as there is no seating, and I was given salt and pepper & the spicy chili pepper on the side. The chicken was not as crispy as I liked but I enjoyed the flavoring with the salt and pepper! The salmon and tuna in the onigiri was fresh, and it was quite easy to open without any sticky mess. I can't comment on their drinks, but I have to Hojicha Milk Tea in the future! The place was a bit hard to find. Great diversity in the typical Asian snacks of popcorn chicken and takoyaki along with a good selection of boba! read more

District Tea is a hidden gem in the heart of the Mission. It has a relaxed ambience, tons of drink options and truly unique offerings you don't see everywhere--like a sweet potato latte (!)--so there's really something for everyone. It was my first visit and I wasn't sure what to order, but the staff was super friendly and welcoming. They recommended the Hong Kong milk tea, which was smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. I also got the popcorn chicken and spam musubi, and everything was delicious. Grabbed everything to go and enjoyed it at Dolores Park--such a perfect Mission combo. Already feels like a new local go-to, and I'll definitely be back to try more! read more

Ammazing cookies and boba!!! Good vibes too! The staff was nice and it was great supporting local. Will definitely be back

I've been ordering their popcorn chicken for a few years now, and it's consistently solid. Always crispy, flavorful, and satisfying. I really appreciate that they include both regular and spicy pepper on the side, perfect for customizing your heat level. (I prefer spicy) Also, don't sleep on the Katsu Sando! It's definitely on the pricier side, but the taste makes it worth the splurge. Highly recommend! read more

I went here to get some boba, and was happy with the results. The tea was superb, and the honey boba was so good. It wasn't too sweet, and the chewiness of the boba was just right. Overall 9.5/10. The popcorn chicken was also awesome, with tender pieces, and no chewy cheap chicken like other places tend to do. Definitely will be back to try their other offerings! read more

I had an amazing time at District Tea. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with hospitality and quick service. I wasn't sure what I should order from their menu because they have a variety of options so I asked for a recommendation. The katsu sando and the mung bean latte were recommended to me so I ordered those two. The katsu sando was the perfect size for a quick bite and was crispy and juicy with just the right amount of filling inside. Some places stuff their katsu sando so much that the filling falls out and makes it messy to eat but this had the perfect amount for me. The mung bean latte was not too sweet and tasted amazing, like I was eating a mung bean ice cream! You could tell they used real mung beans to make the latte and not any powder or syrups. As a heads up for people visiting for the first time, there isn't a sit-down area with chairs inside but it's very clean and spacious, especially for those who would like to stand inside to wait for their drinks and food instead of waiting outside on the street in the sun. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area. There's not much free street parking but if you're nearby Dolores Park or on Valencia Street, it's definitely worth the walk to get a snack and drink from here! read more

Ok so I'm really annoyed. I ordered an egg sandwhich with my drinks. And when I walked back to work and pulled the sandwich out to eat, it felt super dry and rough. Like it's been sitting out to dry for at LEAST a day, maybe 2. I've eaten from here once before and the bread is usually really soft and moist. I couldn't walk back to complain, because I was working, so I tried to call. Nobody picks up. I called probably 3x before I decided to leave a message. I explained the issue and left my phone number for them to return my call. Nothing. By the time I was done with my day, they were already closed. You would think they would want to fix this issue- but no. Never received a call back. Never supporting this business again. Drinks were good so not a complete loss. But those sandwiches cost over $10. So I basically threw money in the trash because the sandwhich was inedible. I was not about to take a chance on a day old egg sandwhich. read more

This Boba spot has been on my list for sometime so when my friends came into the city we came here for some Boba and snacks. The popcorn chicken was on point, nice and hot. We ordered the iced Grass jelly, hot sweet potato latte, and hot Hojicha tea crema. The ice grass jelly was pretty tasty although quite sweet even with low sugar we were impressed with the sweet potato latte. It was really good, slightly sweet but not overpowering. Even though I did not get the Hojicha with milk, the salted caramel cream was strong enough to taste like milk tea. The service was quick. The place was to go only, no table nothing. It was cold outside, so we actually ate by the counter. I think it would be nice to have some standing tables available. Everything was great, but for almost 7 dollars a drink for a tiny cup was not worth it. We strongly feel like the drinks with that price should be automatically the large. read more

I would give this place a 3.5. We placed our order an hour before arriving, but when we got there, we still had to wait for it. It seemed like they had just started preparing it, which I understand since they want to serve fresh food. However, I would've appreciated it if the order was ready when I arrived, as it was placed in advance. Popcorn Chicken - must be eaten right away or else it will get soggy. Nicely fried though but wished it had more basil-y flavor. Came with pepper powder and chili powder on the side. Katsu sando - classic katsu sandwich. It was delightful! I didn't get a chance to try their drinks though so hopefully in the future I would like to try.. read more

If you're ever in the Mission District you have to stop at District Tea. I visited on an uncommon warm, sunny day in San Francisco. I orderer Jasmine Green Tea with boba and it was great. The boba had great texture and you can tell they use high quality tea. What made it better was the owner. She was incredible nice and welcoming, which added to the vibes of the shop. read more

Been to District Tea a few times now and the drinks are always incredible. The matcha drinks are great and also the Sunset District. On a side note, they might have changed their sauce in their Spam Musubi. It definitely tastes better than before. Popcorn chicken was also super crispy! Can't wait to try their other drinks and food options! read more

I highly recommend if you're in the Mission and want something a little different done really well. I'll definitely be back. Their mung bean latte deserves a moment of appreciation. Smooth, nutty, lightly sweet, and incredibly comforting without being heavy. It's unique but approachable, and you can tell it's thoughtfully crafted rather than overly sugary or trendy for the sake of it. And then there's the katsu sando--crispy, juicy, and perfectly balanced. The bread is soft and pillowy, the katsu is fried just right, and the sauce ties everything together without overpowering the sandwich. It's simple, satisfying, and executed flawlessly. Service was friendly and efficient, and the space feels intentional without trying too hard. District Tea is the kind of place you come back to because the quality is consistent and the menu feels curated with care. read more

Very solid place to to fulfill your boba or fun drink craving!  It was a cold rainy night and we wanted something warm to drink and decided to pop in and peruse the menu. A hot HK milk tea sounded like a solid choice. It turned out to be the perfect thing to warm us up while we walked around the Mission. Not too sweet and had a strong tea taste but not bitter at all.  Their in store ordering system was out of order so we ordered with the cashier. While waiting for my drink, I was surprised to see they had such an extensive drink and food menu from onigiris to Korean corn dogs! Seems like they have a little something for everyone.  Service was friendly and fast. Would 100% come back again. read more

District Tea is a very cute spot tucked in the Mission. The space is small and there is no seating inside but it's very clean, and they have an expansive menu. They also offer to remake any drink that you might not like which I found to be really nice and made it less scary to find something new to try. I got the regular Milk Tea with boba and it was very good, but not my favorite in the city. The Milk Tea was pretty flavorful and the boba was good but a little hard for my taste. I would definitely come back to try some of their more unique flavors. read more

I'm glad I got to try this place! I found there 25-30% sweet pretty good and their normal sweetness were a bit much. The drinks were great the tea wasn't too strong and it wasn't watery. The sandwiches were worth the wait a bit pricy but really good. They have some picnic bundles is would go back for as well with the park near by. FYI no sitting inside and parking is kinda hard. read more

I visited in the summer. For starters, I ordered a mason jar mug because I'm a collector for reusable boba cups and they skipped it entirely. I had to wait a few minutes to even get the attention of the worker and tell it to them, to which they simply looked at the order and said "oh you did" and handed me one. No apology, no emotion, as if I was being told "here you go, get out of here." I can understand a long, busy day or whatever, but stuff like this definitely leaves an impression. Hong Kong Milk Tea with Boba - boba was alright, a bit too soft as if overcooked. Not a lot of flavor with the boba either. Flavor wise, the boba was average and on par with a lot of boba here. Tea was pretty strong and powerful in the drink. I threw away the cup with some boba left but finished the drink so I loved the tea but would skip the boba. That being said, I can understand one-off experiences so I figure there's potential to revisit in the future and see if I was just unlucky. read more

Great spot for boba in the Mission! The service was wonderful - we felt well taken care of in the shop. The popcorn chicken was SO good and the spicy powder that came with it. The egg salad sandwich was also done well - soft bread and very flavorful. We both got lychee based teas and it came with bits of lychee which is a nice touch (you don't get this at many spots). The spot is mini and meant for To-Go. We wanted to try the spam musubi but they were out so we are very excited to return again! Highly recommend! read more

I tried their Green Thai Milk tea with crema + agar boba and it hit the spot! It had the perfect balance from the strong flavors of the green Thai tea leaves and the salty/sweetness from the crema.

This place has an unassuming exterior but is very welcoming once you walk in! Though the menu might seem a bit overwhelming, the staff were very helpful in helping me decide. Ultimately, I chose my go-to peach tea latte with boba and the boba pearls were perfection and 30% sweet was just right. My friend had the mung bean (pandan) latte and that was extremely good! I will probably go back for that. We also had the popcorn chicken and I was surprisingly satisfied with the portion. I liked the spicy dipping sauce that came with it. Can't wait to go back to try the Katsu sando and the other food items! read more

DistrictTea on Mission St. absolutely nails it with their strawberry matcha latte. The balance is spot-on--earthy, high-quality matcha paired with real strawberry flavor that's fresh and lightly sweet, not artificial or overpowering. It's creamy, refreshing, and clearly made with care. You can taste that they don't cut corners on ingredients. The drink feels indulgent but still clean and smooth, making it an easy repeat order. If you're a matcha fan or just looking to try something a little different, this one's a standout. Highly recommend. read more

Probably my favorite bubble tea place in the mission. Jasmine tea (5/5): strong flavor just like I like it. Sea salt crema topping is a must. Popcorn chicken (4/5): perfectly cooked! Very juicy but the chicken has no seasoning apart from the chili powder. They do offering dipping sauce but I wish the batter was seasoned. No seats here. Take it to go and enjoy at Dolores Park. They also have a picnic combo which is a great deal! read more

Stopped by District Tea after my sister had recommended it to me and I think it's great for tea lovers! I tried their peach oolong tea easy sweet with a few toppings and I thought it was wonderfully tea forward. The peach flavor tastes like real fruit, nothing artificial or powdery. It was super refreshing and the perfect pick me up. I ordered ahead online and my drinks were ready on time. While there's no seating, it's a great grab and go spot. Parking can be a bit tricky since the street is busy, but it's worth it. Highly recommend stopping by! read more
