We got the boba drinks here that the owner was super nice, described the making of the teas! It's awesome to know our teas are made with care and thought for what kind of thai tea goes into it. Drinks are a bit pricey but this is very high quality thai tea if you love it. Definitely would go again for thai tea
We were looking for boba and this place popped up on Yelp. It's in an industrial park type of area serving items from several vendors. Interesting experience. No human interaction, just a couple screens, lockers and your phone. We placed our order, waited about 20 minutes and received a text that it was ready for pickup. Scanned using the "find your order" screen and the locker popped open. We ordered the Taro Thai.. it was just ok. Didn't taste much Thai Tea.
The slice of Thai Tea Basque cheesecake was good though I found their flavor profile much less pronounced that drinking a Thai Iced Tea. You place your order online and pickup from a numbered locker box at this pickup only spot that's part of South Coast Takeout. The area is kinda dark and industrial but at least was manned. The experience was interesting but somewhat lacking in service. They have both a slice and a whole pie available on the website menu. I initially ordered the whole pie, checked out and paid for it but a few minutes later I got a text and email that my order was cancelled and refunded. There was no explanation given or call to tell me why.. and you can't call them. I then ordered just a slice hoping to get at least a taste of this interesting item. This ordered worked and I was able to pick it up. I asked the front attendant at the pickup area but he didn't know why they canceled except maybe they were out of whole pies and had not removed it from the menu availability. I would prefer less ambiguity when ordering.
This place has been on my list FOREVER but I finally had the chance to see it at - they showed up at the farmer's market in Irvine at Stonegate. A+. Glowing reviewe warranted. The Phuket tea blew my socks off. It tasted like caramel but without all the sugar. I didn't ask for any modifications and it was perfect. The sweets seem well received though I didn't get any this time.
Loved the selection of sweets and drinks. Tried the Tea Flight, tasting a bit of each drink and didnt know that theres a Phuket version of thai tea vs Bangkok, both were pretty good. The kids loved the strawberry cheesecake bingsu. Also got a thick pandan cookie, yum...!!! Service was also great. Soft opening!
More like a 3.5 but I'm rounding up and will definitely review them again if I get to try their product at an actual Farmer's Market or even they're tabling at. Don't know if being at a ghost kitchen affects any of the quality. I had to swoop into the OC real quick for some Black Friday shopping and decided to get boba from somewhere that I can't get in the 626. I know an oomfie was able to try Eastern Tales at the Lantern Art Expo (sadly they weren't vending when I went) and saw that I can order from them here. Saw from the reviews that it is a ghost kitchen locker, but whatever that's quick and easy, I was seeking that. You simply order from their website, they confirm your order, give you an estimate when it's ready and there is a link that is texted to you. You just open the link and then the locker with your order will pop open. If you want to order at the ghost kitchen, there is a kiosk touch screen where you can do that as well. Took around 10 minutes for my 3 drinks. I got the: Bangkok Thai Tea *Signature*, Phuket Thai Tea *Signature*, and their Eastern Tales Thai Tea. Their Eastern Tales Thai Tea is just their Bangkok Thai tea with some toppings, so I recommend getting one or the other so you can try more. All of their drinks are recommended at 100% sweetness, so I opted for that. BIG mistake, way too sweet for me. I would have gone half if I knew it was going to be that sweet. Had to mix in some milk at home to dilute how sweet everything was. Their Bangkok Thai Tea and by extension their Eastern Tales Thai tea have a sweeter, creamier taste, standard of many Thai tea. Their ETT comes with boba and coconut whipped cream (with some dried coconut bits in it too). I did like the dried coconut bits as it absorbed the flavor of the Thai tea and added some nice texture. Boba was standard in my opinion. I do feel like the toppings added a slightly more "tropical" or "floral" taste to the tea than their standard Bangkok Thai Tea. Of the 3, my favorite was the Phuket Thai tea as it uses a darker roast and gives a stronger Thai tea flavor if that makes sense. Gave it slight caramel/creme brulee finishing note taste that I really liked. Would have enjoyed this much more if I didn't do the recommended 100% sweet. All in all, IYKYK, there are some big dogs out there for the Thai tea market and I say Eastern Tales falls a bit short in term of tastiness and uniqueness of their teas. I don't mind giving them a try at an event, with adjusting the sweetness in mind, as well as trying some of their pastries/baked goods.
We went to their actual location in Samta Ana and it was a building with an Amazon locker. You can order online or on the tablet and it opens up like an Amazon locker delivery. Super interesting. There is one guy at the front but otherwise, it's a no-contact location. Nowhere to sit either so it's takeout only. Or you can drink in the car like my friend. Fantastic thai tea though. Really elevated and deepened the flavor. My favorite was the Phuket as it tasted like a dark roast and had a really strong tea flavor. Lychee lime thai tea was also really unique and flavorful. I recommend 50% sugar though as it is sweet. Definitely recommend for anyone who is a fan of thai tea and tea in general.
Eastern Tales was a delightful highlight of the Los Angeles Lantern Art Expo, especially since I had been eager to try their Thai tea-inspired drinks and desserts. With their unique offerings available only through online ordering and pick-up at a ghost kitchen, I was thrilled to finally experience them in person. The staff was incredibly kind, generously offering samples of all their drinks, and I loved every single one! As a Thai tea enthusiast, their creative concept resonated with me. I ultimately indulged in the Thai tea burnt basque cheesecake, Coconut Chiffon, and the refreshing Lychee Lime Thai tea--each bite and sip was simply delicious. I can't wait to explore more of their menu! Go see them at the Los Angeles Lantern Art Expo!!! I'm definitely going back and ordering online!
We stumbled upon Eastern Tales Thai Tea at the Brea Farmers Market and oh. my. god. This is hands down the BEST Thai tea I've ever had. Perfectly balanced--not too sweet, super creamy, and with such a rich, authentic flavor. You can really tell they put love into every cup. They're a pop-up, so you can catch them at different events around Orange County, and they currently have two locations--one in Santa Ana and another in Fountain Valley. Definitely worth tracking down if you're a Thai tea fan (or even if you're not... yet). So glad we found them--we're officially hooked!
OVERALL : There is no shortage of boba in OC, but I thought this place was really unique because they just specialize in thai milk /fruit teas! They've been doing pop ups at the farmer's market and night markets in the area, but I was near their ghost kitchen pick up spot one day so decided to try. I ordered online via the website and they had a BOGO deal, so I ended up getting 4 drinks. Since they are a ghost kitchen, there was no real interaction with a person, but the drinks were carefully packaged in individual bags and labeled clearly so that was a nice touch. PARKING : Ghost Kitchen pickup spot, so there was a small lot. Doesn't really get crowded since ppl just come pick up their food and go. FOOD/DRINKS : Bangkok Thai Tea - classic thai tea - Suuuuper creamy and strong! I got 75% sweet but honestly I could've gotten away with 50% bc I don't like my drinks too sweet. I feel like this was more of a dessert drink to me just bc of how decadent it was Strawberry Serenade - thai tea + milk + strawberry puree - low-key reminded me of strawberry milk from my childhood? I couldn't taste the thai tea much in this one bc the strawberry milk flavor was the most prominent. I'd get less sweet next time as well though Thai Tea Orange Creamsicle - orange tea + cream top - my fav thing that I got here! The orange tea was refreshing and the cream top did make it taste like a creamsicle when mixed in Taro Thai Milk Tea - thai tea + taro milk tea - similar to the strawberry drink, the thai tea flavor was less prominent here bc the taro milk tea was the main flavor. Not a bad thing if you like taro, but personally I'd want to taste more of the thai tea Overall all the drinks were creamy and rich, but I'd def get less sweet for everything! I think their BOGO deal is a great way to get multiple diff drinks like I did and see which one you like most!
I saw Eastern Tales Thai Tea on Instagram and had to check it out since Thai tea is always my go-to flavor at boba shops. The place itself is really cute, with bar seating and cozy wooden tables. We tried a few things: the Thai Tea & Cookie Flight, Taro Mochi Cookie, Panda Cookie, Thai Breeze, and the Biscoff Coffee Frap. The Thai Tea & Cookie Flight was really fun and unique. The pairings were: -Pocket Thai Tea + Thai ice cream -Lemon Thai Tea + Matcha brownie -Thai Breeze + Chocolate brownie -Bangkok Thai Tea + Thai brownie I never realized there were different types of Thai tea before this visit! They had Phuket Thai Tea and Bangkok Thai Tea, and they actually tasted very different. The Phuket Thai Tea was rich with a strong tea flavor, almost coffee-like. The Bangkok Thai Tea was smoother and milkier, which felt more like the classic Thai tea. My top pick was definitely the Phuket Thai Tea because I loved the bold tea flavor!!! The cookies were super fresh, soft, and chewy, and the drinks like the Lemon Thai Tea and Thai Breeze were really refreshing. The staff were very friendly and the service was quick! read more

Went to get thai tea at eastern tales and this is the outside to order thru the kiosk. Getting here was pretty sketchy and dark which was concerning. Definitely go with a partner. Other than that, the drinks were good and enjoyable. read more

We picked up their signature Thai iced tea and a cheese cake slice to try. The tea is smooth and rich with Thai tea flavor. The cheesecake is not too sweet and very tasty. Friendly service and definitely will be back again. Plenty of parking. read more

I had a great experience trying this ghost kitchen for the first time! I ordered 2 drinks for their BOGO sale and also a Thai tea cookie. I ordered online and it was complete on time. The Bangkok Thai tea is your traditional flavor when you think of Thai tea. It was perfectly sweetness with a strong tea flavor. I got Thai tea jellies which were very soft, but it was hard to taste given my drink was also Thai tea. We also tried the Phuket Thai tea which had a strong punch to it. It was slightly bitter with a sharp tea flavor which was less floral than the Bangkok. It was a little too bitter for me; I much prefer the Bangkok one. The red velvet cookie was good, not overly sweet. The Thai cheesecake was a good consistency but the Thai flavor was not very strong. The soufflé was light and fluffy with pieces of coconut in the center. Their customer service is great. The business called to tell me they had just run out of the Thai tea cookie and offered me a substitute vs a refund. I opted for a substitute cookie and she ended up offering me a free cheesecake slice too for the inconvenience! So nice! But once I got the bag, I saw she also gave me a coconut soufflé. Now that is customer service! read more
After eating a good hearty lunch at a KBBQ, we wanted something to quench our thirst! Summer is here and it's gonna be brutal. We found Eastern Tales on yelp and they had some good reviews so we decided to try it and the timing was so great because they had a BOGO!!! I had to order two for myself because why not!? It was online order only for pick up at a ghost kitchen. I didn't have to wait too long. I got the Bangkok Thai Tea with Oat Milk (super rich in flavor) and the Bangkok Breeze (it tasted like lychee juice) both with less ice and less sugar. The last thai drinks place that I tried was Cha Tra Mue and their thai tea was okay but this place was super good and I liked how they had oat milk option. I would love to try more drinks from this place. read more
I stopped by their booth which is/was at UC Irvine this week (they are here until this Friday 5/10/24) - their normal location is at the South Coast Ghost Kitchen off Broadway in Santa Ana. The co-founder was running the booth and he was very friendly/cordial/personable. Apparently, the story goes that the two co-founders met each other during a marketing class while attending UC Irvine. So it's like full circle/homecoming that they are back running a booth during UCI's quarterly vendor fair. He had so much positive energy during our chat - which was building up my anticipation for his wares. After sampling both the Bangkok Thai Tea and the Phuket Thai Tea, I settled on the Phuket Thai Tea. The Bangkok thai tea is great if you prefer the taste of thai tea, but not as strong of a tea element. The Phuket Thai Tea has a much stronger tea profile - which I love and its definitely full-bodied in this drink. The cup is sturdy - I think it's reusable too - not like your typical tea shop cups. This is literally the best thai tea I've had in ages - it is unique enough in its own flavor to leave a mark and positive impression. The booth had other goodies as well - including cookies and cheesecake. I also picked up an order of the Thai Tea Basque Cheesecake - extremely rich and is definitely a treat if you're a fan of the thai tea flavor. I'm hoping to see them more at these types of fairs/open markets, since parking looks kinda tough at their spot in the ghost kitchen. read more
Probably the best thai tea I've had in my life! Found them on instagram, then heard they were nearby (They're at UCI for the week of 5/6-5/10) and I dashed over.) There at the buildings right across university town center alongside the other tents in the area. There was already of line of students when I arrived (as i always say, if you want good eats, it's best to follow the lines) I dont go here! (The school) but I do love supporting a small business. There's the bangkok thai tea (light roast) and Phucket thai tea (dark roast) I went for the dark roast and it was DELISH, I looove looove strong tea and this one almost reminded me of how strong coffee is a bit. If you prefer the usual thai tea which is milkier, I'd probably stick to bangkok. About as authentic as it gets, wish i had time to stay to try the desserts and the lychee thai tea limeade, but maybe next time! read more
Thai tea chocolate cookie: Oh my gosh the thai tea sauce on top is absolute magic; it has the strongest thai tea flavor of all the sweets and I love it! The coconut cookie on top provides a refreshing flavor to a very rich cookie. 6/5 Young coconut chiffon cake: Sooo incredibly soft and fluffy with young coconut at the bottom. Perfectly pairs with the coconut & thai tea whipped cream! 5/5 Coconut whipped cream: My gosh this is soooo soft and fluffy. The coconut flavor is perfect and creammmy. I liked this more than the thai tea version surprisingly. 6/5 Thai tea coconut whipped cream: Also so soft and fluffy! Very light tea flavor that gets more pronounced the more you eat it. 5/5 Lychee lime thai tea w boba: Wow this was so refreshing and flavorful! The sweetness of lychee is balanced by the lime and together they mesh really well with the flavor of thai tea. The boba was more chewy and I prefer squishy soft boba. Drink is 5/5 though! Thai tea basque burnt cheesecake: Very good delicate flavor of thai tea that gets more pronounced the more you eat. Original basque burnt cheesecake: Very rich cheesecake. Great for cheesecake lovers but I prefer the thai tea version. read more

I got a box of a little bit of everything from Chef Toon and I am so impressed. The flavors, the textures, you name it. First off, the Thai tea flavor is immaculate. You can tell it's good quality Thai tea that has been freshly brewed and not any of the artificial flavoring. The Thai tea has been mixed with coconut and the quality really shines through. Most importantly, for desserts, there is enough flavor, and it's not too sweet. The young coconut, chiffon cake was one of my favorites and it impressed my Asian mom. I really enjoyed getting a little bit of everything and being able to try it. I wish I was a little bit closer because I would definitely get this all the time. I always want to support mom and pops, and I hope that more people will give them a shot. Highly recommend! read more

All things Thai tea, all in one place! Quality teas are served here. I've tried a few drinks here so far and all of them are amazing and authentic to Thailand's flavor. But what's better than their drinks are the desserts! I thought the Thai tea cheese cake was great but the Coconut chiffon deserved the crown. SO GOOD! Add extra cream to it too! I'm looking forward to have the Thai teas again as I have yet to tell apart what's the different among all of the 3 kinds of Thai teas here. Bangkok Thai Lemon Iced Tea is also really good and I highly recommend it for a refresher @tableformin read more

TLDR: A dynamic dessert spot for people who want the diverse flavors of Thailand. I'm not big on sweets, but I'll make an exception for this place. Bangkok Thai Tea w/ Salted Cheese foam: It's the perfect blend of sweetness and bitterness. You could really feel the layers within the drink and the role each plays to maintain the delicate balance of the drink. The boba is cooked well. It's chewy and it doesn't disintegrate in your mouth. Coconut Chiffon: Taste of the coconut is there and it's not too heavy. It's sweet but not overpowering. Service: I ordered via Ubereats and the order came relatively quickly. No complaints here Ambiance: N/A read more

I never really order Thai tea at boba shops and would only really order them at Thai restaurants if I feel like it. However since this is their speciality here, of course that's what we'd get. I've gone several times now and actually really like their drinks. I usually get their Eastern Tales Thai Tea, which is their speciality order. Between the Phucket Thai Tea and the Bangkok, I prefer the Bangkok because it's creamier. Phucket is more tea-y and you really taste the leaves I feel, which can be on the more bitter side, which my husband prefers. We were thoroughly impressed with the lychee lime Thai tea. It's so unique and different and works so well because we're not used to Thai tea being fruity/without milk. The only complaint is that their drinks I feel are pricey, but it's nice to have a good Thai tea when we want it. It's a ghost kitchen, so you order on a screen there and just wait or you can pre-order online. The drinks come out in the designated locker when it's done and you just grab and go. You really don't interact with anyone at all. read more

Upon arriving, my friend and I realize it's part of a ghost kitchen. Not a great sign, but we already committed. Ordered a few drinks and their dessert box. They do have a BOGO deal, so that made it worthwhile. Specializing in Thai tea, the tea itself is just slightly above average. It doesn't taste watered down, and the boba is sweet and chewy throughout. The dessert box was barely ok. I liked the cheesecake, it had a nice burnt texture at the edges. The chiffon cake is pretty good too, it's soft and had bits of coconut. Overall, nothing memorable. Safe to cross off the list. Fourtea will continue to be my go-to for Thai tea. read more

Wow, if you like Thai tea, this is the spot for you!!!! Whenever I get boba I usually don't get Thai tea. But the Thai tea here is really good and has a very strong tea flavor. We also got the dessert sample which was packaged so cute!! Our favorite was the Thai tea cheesecake and coconut chiffon cake!! I love how unique this place is with the variation in Thai tea flavored desserts and drinks! read more
tl,dr: Exciting opportunity for discount Thai teas! Likes: + Nice selection of Thai-inspired teas. Various flavors and toppings. + Interesting digital customer interface. If you already placed your order online, then when you arrive in the shop, you use the tablet (2 available) to identify your order. After the tablet finds your order for you to confirm, the locker opens up with your order inside. I think the design purpose is to exercise social distancing. + At first I was unsure about going here, because you may notice a couple Yelp reviews mentioning some confusion with the Yelp check-in. However, one review advised to give them a call, so that's what I did. The founder Draft was very nice and helpful. He explained to me over the phone that since you don't interact with an employee directly at the shop, redeeming the Yelp check-in can be tricky. However, if you order on the website, you should see something like "Buy 1 Get one free" (possibly limited time offer). + The boss was even nice enough to throw in a treat for the trouble. Thank you! If you're confused how the Yelp check-in deal works, I highly recommend giving the establishment a call. You'll be helped for sure. Non-likes: - Seemingly depressing homeless people sleeping near the store entrance. This one's not on the establishment, but worth mentioning to some guests who might be concerned. - If you order a dessert, it may come in a paper bag sealed with a staple (see photo). You may pull open the bag and carelessly reach inside, but the sharp staple may scratch your skin. I recommend the business replace the staple with a safer sealing method, like a sticker. Gripes: - I was confused how you're supposed to show the order on your phone to the tablet's camera in order for the tablet to recognize it. Do I pull up the email, the order webpage, or...? If the tablet showed an example of what my phone screen should look like to show to the tablet's camera, that would've been helpful. I tried, but the tablet's cam couldn't detect my order. Nevertheless, it had a manual option, so I was able to locate my order without needing an employee's assistance. - Located kinda in the middle of nowhere. I ordered: $7.16 Taro Thai Milk Tea + (free $6.25 Bangkok Thai Lemon Iced Tea) + tax = $7.82 read more
I previously ordered Thai tea and cheesecake from Eastern Tales when they accepted pre-orders for pick-up at a store near Thai Town in Hollywood. I've been obsessed with their Phuket-style Thai tea ever since. I also love their Thai tea cookie and cheesecake. I had a chance to visit Eastern Tales at the 626 Night Market. They just released a new cookie flavor, Coconut Pandan. The pandan aroma is so sweet! I highly recommend their Strawberry Serenade which is Thai tea with strawberry puree. For non-dairy options, I tried Bangkok Breeze, a Butterfly Pea tea with lime and lychee. Instagram: @easterntales_thaitea read more
