Dobra Tea is my FAVORITE place to eat in Southern Oregon for many reasons: 1. The quality of the food is exceptional 2. They are consistent, which I value highly. 3. No matter what I order, it tastes absolutely delicious. And when I leave, I feel super healthy and filled with vitality. 4. The folks that work here are generally very sweet. Periodically, more training may be needed in how to serve customers properly, e.g., ensure they have utensils and follow-up after serving to make certain customers received all the ingredients in whatever they ordered, but overall their kindness and sweetness make up for any oversights. I have so many great memories of this place during the 12 years that my husband and I have lived here. I remember driving into Ashland in the middle of a snowstorm because I had an appointment with my yoga teacher and I do NOT cancel on her. After we finished yoga, I decided to pop in to Dobra tea and get a hot mushroom latte. I sat at one of the tables in the front room looking out at the snow falling. Almost no one was out and it was like being in the middle of a snow globe with a warm cup in my hand. Another time I was there with a friend for lunch. He ordered their avocado toast with egg, which I had never ordered before. He insisted I take a bite, which I graciously agreed to do. The flavors were so exquisite that it immediately became one of my many favorite things to order at Dobra. I learned they make their own English muffins, which is the "toast". Wow!!!!!! So many lovely memories here -- and I expect to co-create MANY more. Thank you for being so exceptional at what you do! read more

We had an excellent lunch here today. The peanut bowl has serval slices of lightly fried tofu, avocado, carrot and crisp broccoli with brown rice and peanut sauce. The Vietnamese green tea was very good, fixed in the traditional way but, as all their tea, and very expensive. read more

Fresh brewed loose left tea boba that tastes earthy sweet. What a treat before or after a play at the festival. They also have great salads and bowls, a special chocolate chip cookie, and a few other heathy-sweet treats to soothe you. The outdoor eating area is great when the weather cooperates. Otherwise inside is nice too. The staff here does a great job. I will be back. read more

Amazing selection & variety of tea. Delicious nutritious bites to eat for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner. Yummy smoothies, beautiful latte or chai art, and boba drink options as well. Dessert baked goods, such as the raspberry tarts go perfect with your choice of beverage. Service always helpful. Best for groups of 4 people or less. Love the peaceful atmosphere and cozy vibe. Go up to the counter to pay when done or order more. If you need further assistance, ring the very accommodating table bell. read more

Dobrá Tea is a legitimate tea shop that seems like a great place to hang out and slowly sip on tea. Usually these type of places have amazing curated teas, but are mediocre on boba. Given the great reviews, and the fact that it's one of only a couple of places that sell boba in Ashland, we decided to give it a try. Classic Milk Tea, Half & Half, 24oz ($7.50) - The cashier told it the milk tea they serve is not very sweet and I can definitely attest to that. In fact, I'd go and ahead and say that the tea is similar to no sweetness at traditional boba shops. I believe in this drink, most of the sweetness comes from the boba brown sugar soak only. The tea aroma is somewhat chocolatey and cinnamony spiced in flavor. It's a little thin on body due to lack of sweetener and doesn't really have a great creamy element to coat the mouth. The ice level is perfect so it doesn't dilute the tea further. The tea is very good quality as expected but the mix seems like more European than Asian, perhaps stirred lightly instead of aerated well. It's like the milk tea I make at home by stirring with a spoon instead of rapidly shaking in a cocktail shaker to aerate it more. This is really rare of me to say, but I think the balance of the drink is off due to lack of sugar and/or half and half. It makes the drink very watery in mouthfeel and the taste just isn't there. The boba is also not the best. The exterior is a bit mushy while the interior remains kind of grainy and firm. Meh. They barely give much boba either, only enough for maybe a third of the drink.  Milk Tea Rating: 3.5/5 Boba Rating: 3/5 Overall I think the tea is very high quality, but as a boba drink it's only average or perhaps a little above average. I'd visit Dobra again to buy tea rather than for the boba. Bathrooms - Two larger rooms with multiple stalls read more

Everything there is so yummy! I love the ambience and how it feels so relaxed to be there. It's nice to go have a chat with your friend or just be by yourself and have some tea or yummy beverage or even come with your little laptop and do a little bit of work. They baked goods are yummy as well. I highly recommend this place! read more

Very interesting tea place with a lot of tea selections! We bought different flavors to try and would like to come back to get some new ones. read more

Dobrá is a cute place to grab an afternoon tea and hang with friends. The ambiance is super cozy and everything you'd want from a tea house. I enjoy all the options for seating! There are 2-too tables with chairs, a cozy little couch area and then a traditional floor seating area with cushions. All the spaces are separate from each other giving you some privacy. The tea selection is very vast!! It is mostly more herb, garden forward teas rather than sweet, fruit teas. There is an entire page of only herbal teas without caffeine which I really appreciate as a non-caffeine drinker. They also have a few pastries that are all gluten-free options. It is pretty dark in there with the windows being covered and the "mood lighting." So it is more of a space to journal or quietly chat in with a friend. They do not have wifi, so this is not the place to come and work or study. There is free parking reserved for Dobrá tea customer in the back! Very helpful for when downtown gets really busy in the summer. read more

A must do each time I come to Southern Oregon! It's such a nice spot to just sit and enjoy a nice cup of hot or iced tea. I love the way many of their teas are served; kettle, cup, milk and honey. I've tried so many that I highly recommend to do a new one each visit. Along with the tea, I always do their hummus & veggie platter along with their pita Lebanon. I've done their bowls too and the sir food has never disappointed! Healthy and filling, easy for 2 people to share. It's busy, each time I've visited there's always some foot traffic and the back room always has guests. The front and outside are your "regular restaurant" seating, but the back room has floor seating and couch seats with tables. When it's busy, it's busy but the workers are on it with multitasking and making sure everyone has what they ordered. 10/10 recommend if you're in the area! read more

Loved the variety of teas and drinks,cool setting however can get a little loud inside.

This review is mainly for the food. Their peanut bowl is incredible. Got it like three times while visiting--just the perfect blend of healthy and tasty when you need a quick meal. I wish I lived here so that I could get food from this place all the time. It does take a while, but we were staying nearby so it didn't matter. Also love that this place is a Czech style tearoom! read more

We expected to be more impressed with Dobra Tea than was our actual result. I had to wait outside while my wife ordered for us, as I was carrying one of our puppers in a vest I was wearing (no biggie), so I was not privy to the exact details, but she reported that the girl taking our orders was not particularly friendly or helpful. She was said to have an aloof and rather unwelcoming demeanor, and that most questions were responded to with an air of impatience and mild annoyance. Compounding the experience, it took 20 minutes for our two raspberry black iced teas, and one hot Chai Masala tea to arrive. Our Goat Cheese and Tomato plate had already arrived, and been completely devoured, before they showed up, and the place wasn't particularly busy at the time. Still scratching my head on that one. The raspberry black iced teas were tasty, and I appreciated the light touch of sweetening, as most places tend to over-saccharine their brews. This ain't the deep south, people! No sweet tea here: Dobra done good on this point. No faults for the Chai Masala either, as it hit all the right notes of sweet and spice, and not over-steeped, which we expected, based on the time it took to arrive. There are things about the experience that could be improved here, but the end product is good. Not enough to make it a must-stop on a return trip to Ashland, but close enough to warrant at least mild curiosity the next time we're in the area. read more

I miss going to Dobra, it's the best, and I used to go there 3 times a week but since getting diagnosed with celiac disease I can't go because they're not a dedicated gluten free facility. :( their Reishi tonic was my favorite drink, and I've never had Matcha this good anywhere else. if you can eat gluten or be around it you MUST go to dobra. Easily the best place for tea and food in all of southern Oregon. read more

LOVE this place. Order at the counter & then get comfy! The choices of tea are endless and the employees are very patient helping you navigate them. The little area where you can take your shoes off and sit on the floor to drink your tea is our favorite. It feels so authentic to the experience. We ordered: GABA oolong, masala chai, vegan raspberry chocolate mousse, baklava, and Lebanon pita. All were delicious and reorderable except the pita, as there was very little za'atar spice so we felt it lacked flavor. I'd like to emphasis how incredible the mousse was. Drink tea, chat, play cards, study, work remotely.... Dobra is the perfect spot! read more

Great tea, food, and atmosphere! HUGE tea selection. With a whole book to read all about them. If you were here alone you could nerd out so hard. I enjoyed both the chai I got and the jasmine pearls, but thought the chai could have been a little spicier. The tea is served in super cute tea pots. Great esthetic. Although my milk pitcher, while cute, was actually not great at pouring. Good food too. I really enjoyed the dolmas and the hummus plate I got. Both were nice and fresh. Really cozy inviting atmosphere. They also have an area to seat your self on cushions at low tables which my 5 year old LOVED (and I also enjoyed). One thing that was a little weird was that there are bells on the tables that you ring for service. It just felt to me kinda like I was ringing for a servant or something which was weird - but I guess it's just their system (my daughter on the other hand loved the bells). read more

It's a nice place if you are a tea gourmet, but when I asked for milk and sugar with the tea I'd chosen I was told that wasn't allowed because "the kitchen wouldn't like it." If there's some kind of reason why that particular tea isn't served that way, I guess I would have appreciated hearing more and maybe learning something. But being shot down and dismissed because "the kitchen wouldn't like it" just means this is a place I will never feel welcome at. There are other tea houses in Ashland that will happily serve tea the way you want. I suggest you try one of them unless you already know plenty about tea and can make choices Dobrá's snooty kitchen approves of. read more

I do not know if it's because they're training somebody new, changed how they prepared it, rushed the brewing process, or just messed up my order, but the tea used to be great and now it suddenly tastes watery read more

Its okay, its summer i get it. But i expected the ac is on in here, but it said on the door the door will always be open during business hours. Boba is good, their foods are also good. The chair is uncomfortable, i stayed for about 2-3 hours. Staffs are kinda friendly? Overall, i would come back in winter so its cold time. read more

Dobra tea is one of my favorite places to eat in Ashland OR, it has a cute environment and delicious food. Probably one of my favorite things to order is the bubble tea, which is just prefect forany occasion! Dobra tea (for me) is not just about the food and tea. I've had lots of memories laughing and having fun with friends and family there. Dobra is really famous for its delicious food and it's Boba Tea. So many different flavors of tea, and many milk choices, even some lactose free! Many memories of "how many boba balls in one mouth full?" Someone got a record of 65 tapiocas balls! Another thing I love about Dobra is that the staff are always so friendly, helpful and don't mind you asking lots of questions. The location is another amazing part about the restaurant. People coming from both sides of town, or just passing through, can see Dobra and stop for a bite to eat or a tea. Dobra even has very nice outdoor seating and take out options. Also if your looking for a new gift for your family members birthday or a local friend Dobra has tea pots and cups of all shapes and sizes. Not to mention all the teas you can buy from a normal Chamomile to teas you don't even know like Dragonwell Green Tea?! They also help the environment by using (and selling) only stainless steel straws except for take out. And if your wondering about Covid-19 all employees are wearing masks and gloves, they disinfect everything after a persons use. Since we LOVE dobra we can't just go there and just observe and look at the menu we HAD to order something, so here is the review on the food we ordered. We first ordered Lavender Lemonade, and Lavender Black Iced Tea with Boba. Usually lavender overpowers but they managed to get the perfect balance of lavender and lemon, and lavender and black. Next we ordered a goat cheese and tomato plate. It had fresh local tomato's with Zaatar, an exotic spice, herb- garlic goat cheese which was very creamy and deliscious, Greek olives added a nice dash of saltiness, and also house made pita bread with a gluten free option of lavash. So all in all Dobra is a five star party in your mouth! read more

Such a delightful, relaxing and cozy place! We stopped in Ashland on our way to Portland and we're soo glad we stopped into Dobrá Tea. We thought we would be in and out in two minutes but were pleasantly surprised that this was a true and full tea experience. The menu is almost overwhelming! There are so many different teas! I ended up getting a jasmine pearls tea and it was so delicious. The service was great but it was honestly all about the ambiance. After driving all day this was such a perfect place to relax and talk. I wish I would have gotten boba to go. read more

Great spot for a tea. I got a golden latte and it was delicious. Service was fast and friendly. We sat on pillows with the short table, but they have lots of other seating too. Fun! read more

Exotic and laid back. Great selection of teas and wonderful food accompaniments - great ambiance too.

Wow, an experience in tea (and lite fare food)! Friendly, comfy, inviting. Highly recommended. Came in solo, sat in a corner wicker chair. I was greeted immediately by knowledgeable, friendly Beth. She explained the tea selection, and asked me to "ring the bell" when I was ready to order. Ordered Avocado egg toast, delicious! Tea; Jasmine pearl, tasty, my favorite. Stop in, thank me later! read more

Dobra Tea is a funky lil cafe that really takes tea seriously. The atmosphere is roughly eastern-themed, with old tea sets nestled all around. There are three seating areas: the front is basic tables and chairs, the middle has a bench all around with small tables, and the back (behind beaded curtains) are cushions on the ground with low tables. Shoes need to be removed in the back. You seat yourself, and wait for a staff member to greet you. This seemed to be a weak spot in their service. I noticed that there was a table of girlfriends there before us, but because I managed to make eye contact, my husband and I were served first. We were given menus with an EXHAUSTIVE list of tea. Now, each description has some history of the tea, and what kind of leaves, but not reliably a description of the flavors. Seemed a little odd. Because of the lack of flavor notes, my husband didn't know how to choose a tea. I chose an oolong for him since they tend to be mild and easy, and I chose a lemon since that sounded really refreshing. Now, here's where Dobra shines. Their tea service was wonderful! Beautiful sets, refillable pots, and a great teamaster in the back, pouring. It was delicious! We really enjoyed sitting, sipping, and chatting. Very soothing. We bought some looseleaf tea for a very reasonable price on our way out. We'll be back! read more

I've always loved this place. Should probably acknowledge that I worked here years ago, and get the bias admission out of the way. They have the broadest selection of teas of anywhere that doesn't have a Dobra tea, in this country (maybe of anywhere in this country if you consider their pu'erh menu). And the teas are all pretty good quality!! (Like we are talking better than any other tea house I've been to in the states, in terms of leaf quality). The cookies are to die for, and they make some decent lunchy food, as well. Only complaint is the avocado egg toast keeps coming to my table with less and less egg on it. That was the one thing I could eat for a meal on their menu but now its more like a snack--a very delicious snack that leaves me craving for more... kinda genius actually read more

I've been to Dobra so many times and love it. I've enjoyed many meetings here to enjoy their tea, and the delicious bowels. I love the ambiance, the peacefulness, I do laptop work there also. My favorite part is it's walking distance from the most beautiful large park called Lithia Park. read more

Immediate no. Pretentious attitude and holier than thou snobbery oozes and drips from this space. Tied my 6 month old puppy outside and she started barking, so asked to bring her in. The person behind the counter was already pretty rude. She barked once because a kid came running at her and he was like "yea, no" It's 81F folks. No one is leaving their dog in the car, get some humanity and come back down to earth from your pretentious pedestal. As I cannot respond to the comment below. A child ran at my dog, and the dog barked once. The attitude upon arrival was already unfavorable and pretentious anyway, so I'm not surprised. read more

Beautiful and relaxing- food and drinks were delicious. I got the iced matcha latte and loved it.

Waiting 30 minutes for a pot of tea seems excessive. Service is exceedingly slow. Be prepared to wait. Still don't know about quality. Perhaps more later. read more

I just had my first experience of Dobra Tea. I love it!

I'll definitely be back! read more
