The only thing I don't like is it super packed no clear system of what line is for what.. Today they didn't have a customer service so you can speak one on one to order with an employee. Only ordering through kiosk or online. Wait is another 20-30 mins. Drinks are super good and refreshing I love the coconut mango boom and grapefruit mango boom. Ambiance is small but nice and aesthetic read more

okay updating this review because I feel like I've had better experiences now that heytea is more established. I still think there are better spots out there with more premium quality but I would come to heytea for their specialities which are more dessert like drinks such as smoothies. Coconut mango boom and it's mango sago is yummy yummy! 10/10. I prefer more pure tea lattes personally when it comes to drinks, ifl those are slightly above avg here. Also in terms of price, every boba spot is almost the same when it comes to price lol inflation but heytea is most definitely premium tea which is reflective of their quality. Solid spot in Irvine! Would def keep coming back. Also u can order on the app, it's quick and pretty accurate on wait time ;) read more

The place doesn't have a ton of options so be sure to do your homework before coming here. It's def not a regular bubble tea spot but moreso just a specialty tea spot that has a somewhat limited menu with seasonal items. Their most popular drink is a mango drink with coconut thats pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. Teenagers love to hangout in the parking lot so it's likely going to be crowded. We waited for about 25 minutes to place an order on a KIOSK and another 25mins to get our drinks. Granted the place was booming and the lady handing out the drinks seemed to be overwhelmed but they really do not have a system down thats efficient.. They also ask to take a photo of your order number instead of giving you a receipt. Whats more annoying is that you have to constantly ask if your order is ready because they do not call them out.. It's a skip for me. read more

I always order on the HeyTea app and it's super convenient. There's usually a lot of people outside the store, so having online ordering as an option is really nice, especially since the store is on the smaller side. The drinks are pretty good, but I do think that they haven't been as consistent with making the drinks. The Mango Coconut Boom used to be so good, but lately it's been too much coconut in the drink and it completely overpowers the mango. It used to be the perfect blend of both flavors. It's still enjoyable, but I hope they can be more consistent. It was also my first time trying the Kale Boost Tea, and it was nice and refreshing so I would consider getting it again next time. read more

Heytea - Jasmine Tea Latte, Mango Coconut Boom, and Kale Boost Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

If this place didn't go viral because of Lisa, I don't think I would've stopped by. Compared to other boba places in the area, the boba was just average, but the drinks are definitely pricier. Their menu offers a decent variety of drink types, but not many fruit teas, which is what my sister tends to lean towards. A majority of the drinks were quite heavy with real fruit, but they didn't have many light and refreshing options. * Coconut Mango Blue: 7/10 - couldn't really taste the spirulina * Cloud Jasmine Tea (Original): 8/10 - good but nothing mind-blowing * Cloud Mango: 6/10 - basically a mango mash -- could barely taste the tea at all since it was so thick * Brown Sugar Bobo (Topping): 8/10 - nice texture but overly sweet Very rarely do I see boba shops charge $1 for a topping, but when they do, I'm expecting top-tier boba flavor and a decent portion as well. They're located in the corner of a plaza, so finding a parking spot shouldn't be too difficult. The overall setup of the shop was a bit too unorganized and hectic for my taste. There was a kiosk inside the shop to place orders, but the interior is so tiny that it felt very overcrowded. My friends and I just ended up looking up the menu and ordering through the app. We were surprised to learn that it would take over 10 minutes for our drinks to be finished since we only ordered 4 of them and there were tons of workers in the back. Overall, nothing mind-blowing or worth spending your money on. read more

It took me a while to finally try Heytea. I had to wait until the lines were shorter because this place is really that popular and I do not want to stand that long in line. I have ordered my drinks for pick up to avoid the lines, but I have encountered times where my order said it is ready for pick up and I still had to wait for my drinks to be made when I got there. There are no seats inside. It is intended for customers to order their drinks, get their drinks, and go. I have only tried a few of the drinks: triple supreme matcha latte, matcha cloud coconut blue, kale boost tea, and cloud matcha latte. My favorites are the matcha cloud coconut blue and kale boost tea. Most of the drinks do use milk (contain dairy). read more

Heytea has been getting a lot of hype recently, and I happened to be near one while having lunch in the area. This location is small and pick-up only; we ordered on the kiosk and got our drinks within 10 min. I got the triple matcha, which comes with matcha cream top, matcha latte, and matcha mochi (there was also matcha jelly, but I opted out of that). Portion was generous, and while the matcha drink itself could've been stronger, I appreciated the strong, earthy hit of the mochi; the mochi was also strangely liquid, not the usual harder, chewier kind, but I quite liked it! Decent drink, and I'm glad to have tried Heytea read more

Even though we live nearby, we didn't hear too much good things about this place, but when we finally decided to try it after, we can see the hype. We haven't tried much but the coconut mango boom is a hit, especially with the sago in the drink. It's fairly priced as well so pretty satisfied. We also tried the supreme brown sugar bobo milk tea, which was just okay compared to some other places. Parking can be but crowded but you can order online and get it quick. read more

Heytea - Coconut mango boom - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

Here we go again. Bogo coconut mango boom. This time more prepared, remember no online order or kiosk when they have these specials with high volume so yes you gotta wait in line. The line moves fast because everyone is here for the same thing and the staff is efficient in conveyer belt drink making. Please get the staff a megaphone for number callouts lol. I think the thing with heytea and me is that the teas here dont have much "body" they end up being a bit on the watery side ( but then again its "fresh ". The coconut mango boom is better than the other drinks I had, so it seems their fruity blended drinks are the key. I had a good mix of mango puree and coconut jelly, but it can be not always consistent. Overall I see it more as a 4-5$ quality drink place, but I guess cuz fresh ingredients. Chill staff read more

I don't even like boba tea drinks but I was very pleasantly surprised here. We got the grapefruit boom and the simple jasmine latte but both exceeded my expectations. Order ahead online via the app because the line is INSANE and people crowd in like sardines hahaha. The grapefruit boom had a thin layer of grapefruit slush and pieces of the flesh and then had fresh tea. It was refreshing and balanced. We enjoyed the jasmine latte as well, it had a strong tea flavor that wasn't masked by the milk/cream/sugar. The tea was good enough that it could hold its own. I'm annoyed at how much I like it read more

Heytea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I've been so excited to try Heytea and finally went with my sister. Unfortunately, the experience didn't quite live up to the hype. When we arrived, the store was crowded with people waiting around. It took me a moment to realize there wasn't an actual line--just groups standing around waiting for their orders. Ordering is self-serve: you can scan a barcode to order on your phone, use a touchscreen kiosk, or try to catch a team member at the front. We used the self-service machine. The inside of the store was warm and cramped, which already felt a bit uncomfortable. On top of that, there was a strong bleach smell in the air, which was off-putting. After placing our order, we waited about 30 minutes for our drinks. Triple Supreme Matcha: I was really looking forward to trying this one, but it ended up being incredibly disappointing. When I picked it up, it was completely room temperature, with no ice. It either melted while sitting on the counter due to the inside temperature or melted while being made--either way, it wasn't how the drink was meant to be served. I had high hopes for Heytea, but the combination of the uncomfortable atmosphere, long wait, and disappointing drink left a bad impression. Sadly, I probably won't be returning. read more

I always see a line of people outside of this place in Irvine so when I visited this plaza I decided to give Heytea a try. Looking at the menu, it was obvious to me that they really are pushing people to drink things outside of tea? I decided to order... Coconut Mango Blue - 3 / 5 The drink itself has a heavy coconut and mango taste along with slices to it. I wasn't sure what the blue piece of the drink was, food coloring perhaps? There was a little bit of tea at the very bottom but I felt like I was drinking a blend of desert in my drink rather then a beverage. I didn't feel my thirst quenched and actually felt a little thirsty afterward. The tea was minimum and the contents inside my drink was pretty heavy. I was a little full from it as a result. I'm not sure I would recommend it to someone that's thirsty. There was no where to sit inside and you will be paying premium at $6.99 for the drink with some up to $7.99. The service is unfortunately quite slow despite them having like 4-5 people behind the counter. For me personally, I waited for 15 minutes with 3 parties in front of me before I got my drink. If you see this store, I'm sure it'll strike your curiosity but once you have your drink and you come to your senses....you'll realize to yourself that at $7.99, this is at peak pricing even for premium boba and there are plenty of alternatives at this price point. read more

I don't usually leave negative reviews, but this was frustrating. Ordered two drinks and asked for a bag to carry them--staff refused, even when I said I was happy to pay. It's such a basic convenience, and the lack of flexibility left a really poor impression. read more

Heytea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

Avoid ordering in-store! Save yourself the headache and use the app. I had a rough time at the counter because of a language barrier regarding the drink names, and the tech was a mess, both the ordering screen and the card reader turned off while I was trying to pay. On top of that, there's always things on the menu that was sold out. Great tea, but the in-person service and inventory management need a lot of work. read more

Heytea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

The drinks are pretty dang good here. Only problem is the droves of people constantly piling in the tiny store front only to pour out onto the sidewalk and parking spaces preventing anyone else from getting within 20 feet of the front doors let alone enter the store. Their online app is easy to use for ordering and tracks your order which is convenient. The last time I ordered using the app there were 88 drink ahead of my order (no joke) so I just wandered around the 99 ranch market in the same plaza for about 20 mins only to return to an app that said my drink was ready but it actually wasn't. Had to wait an additional 5 mins to get my drinks. IF you ever show up and there isn't a crowd in front, count your lucky stars and get your order in ASAP. Even though this location is so busy, the coconut mango boom is worth every penny and the 20+ minute wait. Even so, the sheer amount of people in attendance make the whole experience an exercise in "hurry up and wait" so I can only justify four stars. read more

Heytea - Triple matcha and mango grapefruit boom - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

You can tell that this place is good by the amount of people waiting outside. For such a long line, the wait was actually not too bad (at least on the day I went). The store is small but there are 2 kiosks for self-order and a QR code for online ordering. There is also a screen that displays the status of your order, which I appreciate. I got a coconut mango boom. It reminds me of the mango sago dessert, but in a cup. Delicious, flavorful, and indulgent, but not overly sweet. My only critique is that the temperature of the drink varies - some parts are colder, but others are room-temperature/warm-ish. It would be a lot more enjoyable if the drink is evenly cold, especially on a hot summer evening. Would love to come back to try their other drinks. :) read more

Love heytea! Just be prepared for a long line up or order ahead on the app!! Sometimes if it's super busy the app ordering system would be unavailable... Love most of their drinks! Especially the Mango Boom! Perfectly not too sweet and refreshing! Quite pricey for a boba but I say it's worth for a sweet treat! Just wish it wasn't so pricey and lines aren't so long but definitely super tasty! Small but minimal interior, no seating inside. read more

Heytea - Mango Grapefruit Boom - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I really liked the sago and I thought the mango had great flavor. Side note, the room smelled of a strong jasmine walking in and it was delightful. read more

Heytea - Coconut Mango Bloom and Brown Suger Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

have yet to have a poor experience at any heytea. this was my first time trying this location since the other irvine one was out of mango. we ordered online and drinks were ready within 15-20 minutes despite lots of other orders at the time (full store). we all got the same drink, the coconut mango boom, a fan favorite. the only minor upset i had was that they had chunkier/firmer coconut pieces (in addition to the normal pieces) than i've had at any other location i've ever tried and i can't say it was very desirable compared to the alternative. i like this location's interior, especially with the seating. all previous ones have had either seating for waiting, but not really for lingering and working like this one did. otherwise, other locations tend to have none at all. parking is not a huge issue due to the parking lot, but we went on a weds at around 4p so I doubt that's a typical busy time. read more

I've always stolen sips from my siblings so I knew heytea was good but never went out of my way to get my own. I finally got my own and i inhaled my grapefruit mango boom. it's just like mango pomelo sago (my fav hong kong dessert) but in drink form! I also love the option to get it with 0 cal sweetener (it tastes exactly the same and has zero additional charge) its definitely better to have the app and order from there so you can pick up when its ready and not wait in that huge line or loiter around the store. cant say much about service since i just went inside to pick up my drink but it seems a little chaotic as for the ambiance, most people are just waiting outside for their drinks. youre only inside if you want to order read more

Heytea - Grapefruit mango - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

This tea shop has been poppin for a reason, so I had to see what the hype was about--and it did not disappoint. I ordered the Mango Grapefruit Boom with minimal sugar (one of their popular drinks), and wow. It comes with sago, and to me it tastes like a Thai mango sticky rice dessert blended with ice--super refreshing but also comforting at the same time. Just a heads up: this drink will definitely fill you up. It's on the heavier side with coconut milk, so it feels more like a dessert drink than just a regular tea, which I loved. The flavors were balanced and not overly sweet, even with minimal sugar. Their menu is really unique, with lots of interesting drink options you don't see everywhere. I'll for sure be back to try more of their popular drinks. Highly recommend if you're into bold, creative flavors! read more

I initially came for the one-day BOGO pistachio jasmine tea promotion and waited in line for about an hour. Near the front, a staff member came out and told us the pistachio tea was completely sold out and the promotion was no longer available. For a limited, one-day event, there really should have been a firm cutoff earlier to avoid having customers wait that long with no chance of getting the drink. It was extremely disappointing and a big waste of time. That said, I want to update this review because the store manager, Hyde, reached out afterward and handled the situation thoughtfully and professionally. He acknowledged the issue and invited me back to try the pistachio drinks on the house, which I appreciated. Customer service after the fact was handled well, and I respect the effort to make things right. After returning, I tried the pistachio jasmine tea with bobo. The pistachio flavor was rich but well-balanced, not overly sweet, and the jasmine tea was fragrant and smooth. The boba had a great chewy texture and tasted fresh, which really elevated the drink. The other two drinks I ordered were the brown sugar bobo and the jasmine cloud tea with bobo. I know Heytea is known for their fruit slushes, but definitely give their teas a try! read more

Heytea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I've seen ads everywhere on social media as well as long lines at both locations. Never had I ever waited more than 30 minutes for a drink, but that was just me with bad timing. Small place with no seating. Most of the times I went, they ran out of certain drinks because of how busy they get, though the staff is still very nice and patient. Got myself a Green Grape Boom and Coconut Mango Boom. The green grape was expected to be sour and refreshing, in my case it was sweet, a bit sour, with bitter aftertaste. Probably because of the grape skin itself, but it wouldn't be as bitter. Coconut Mango Boom was good, not too sweet. Reminds me of taiwanese mango sago dessert. read more

I came here around 8 pm for their BOGO deal on the new guava drink. The line was down the block and stopped right around the parking lot. I waited about one hour total for my drink. They only had one person taking orders and online order and kiosk was unavailable. But once you order your drink, it comes out super fast. For the amount of traffic they have on deal days, they manage the crowd really well and it is not chaotic at all. The guava drink was amazing but I also tried to order the mochi drink but they said it was sold out! The employees were super nice and patient considering how hard they have to work during bogo days. read more

I did not know this was such a popular spot when I walked by to try it out. It just happened to be in the same plaza as my dinner spot, so I checked it out. They are known for their Triple Matcha, which was popularized by K-Pop star LALISA. I got the Coconut Mango Sago, which was good, I wish that the coconut milk was either made more of like a slushy or made with some thicker coconut cream to be able to stand against the fruitiness of the mango. I would definitely come back to try a few more of their items, especially the matcha. Be careful, the lines here can get really long! You order off a kiosk and I waited 15 minutes after I ordered to receive my drink. read more

We came here after having dinner at a nearby restaurant in the same center. The space was filled with a lot of people waiting outside and inside for their drinks. It also appeared they were just friends hanging out outside of this little shop as there is no indoor or outdoor seating. You can order through the kiosk inside to the left of the front counter or you can order at the register with the staff. I ordered the coconut mango boom. I've never had a drink like this. Instead of Boba, it comes with sago. It was creamy and delicious. After you place your order, be sure to keep an eye out on the screen located inside to the right of the counter up above to look out for your number to be called. Enjoy! read more

I love their drinks, but the service/staff is terrible. I had wanted to order at the front with a worker because the kiosk wasn't showing an option to take off the foam, and she denied me and told me to try it again. So I went back and tried again and it didn't work. After that I had confronted her and she finally took my order, but once I got my order it was totally wrong. It was very disappointing, and since they're a growing business, they shouldn't have incompetent people working the front who can't handle customer service correctly. Edit: This was back in March 9th, 2026, when Hey Tea had a kiosk in the front next to the counter. read more

LOVE Heytea - my new favorite boba place. It smells amazing inside because the Jasmine tea is so fragrant. I love the longjing milk tea that most boba shops here don't have - a deeper kind of tea flavor. I also tried the Tiramisu Milk Tea for the Twinkle twinkle Collab. I don't usually go for dessert teas but this one was surprisingly good! The only downside is that the wait often takes a long time because it's a very popular business. But every time I've been the service was good and you can tell they're working as fast as they can. read more

Swung by at 8pm and still there was a long line. I don't drink caffeinated drinks in the evening but I happen to be visiting so I had to try HeyTea simply because my friend highly recommended it. The tea was good. Be prepared to wait for a while though. Is it good enough for the wait? Probably not. A lot of the drinks on the menu were fruity drinks. I wanted to try their tea so I opted for the Red Blossom Milk tea which was a simple milk tea. I gotta say the flavor was quite unique and I enjoyed it. My son had the surprise matcha lattes which was also delicious. There's a lot some matcha jelly thingy on the bottom. I'll be back if the lines are shorter which I highly doubt. read more

Heytea is wildly popular in China and had been proliferating in the US. I first had it in NYC and was hooked. I could have an endless supply of coconut mango booms and never get tired of that drink. I never really cared about the esthetic, although it was nice to escape the heat in the various Heytea locations all over the city, plus it always strongly smelled of jasmine tea, so I did enjoy actually drinking my drink in store every once in awhile. Mostly, I'm grabbing it to go and scarfing it down within minutes. I'm sad there's not as many locations in SoCal where I live but hope that changes soon. The demand is there! I had 52+ drinks ahead of me at the Irvine location. I'm so addicted I now need to order two Coconut Mango Booms! read more

I'm so happy there is a Hey Tea in Irvine! I used to frequent the Rowland Heights one but it shows "closed" on Yelp now, sad. The parking is challenging to find and the plaza is always busy, so be ready for that! We used their app to order ahead of time. It can get a little busy so we love the option of ordering ahead of time. Right when you enter the shop, you can smell the fragrance of the tea. From this store, I've gotten the matcha supreme, cloud coconut blue, and coconut mango boom tea. I love them all!!! They're so good and flavorful. I highly recommend the coconut mango boom tea on a hot day. It's very refreshing and the sago is the perfect touch. Their matcha is delicious and strong, not watered downed or too sweetened.
