    Not Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea

    This was my first time at this location. I ordered a strawberry matcha with almond milk, and got this matcha filled drink. There's no strawberry and doesn't look like there is any almond milk. It tastes like straight up matcha powder and water. Disappointing.

    Straight forward menu to order from. Staff is quick to take your order and make your beverage. It is usually empty during the evening.

    98 degrees out and I was ready for a boba strawberry milk tea. Friendly and fast service with a small parking lot, close to GCC. Cost was $5 + tip for a regular size.

    Recipe as proof of our purchase.

    Service was horrible. No eye contact from the young lady or young man working at Boba Time across from GCC. The young lady standing up front never turned as I walked in with my child. Not one glance towards the entrance, not one word. The music was so loud, but I accepted the volume as I assumed the two employees were young adults . Without saying a word, the young man working in the back area walked to the counter and simply stood there. I was the first to say anything. I told the young man that I was there to pick up my drinks. I didn't finish my drink b/c it lacked the flavor profile I was expecting. My son said he felt the same. Overall, Poor customer service was provided by two young adults that shouldn't work with the public. Poor service + product preparation = lost customer. Visit occurred today 5/8 at 8:55pm (order pick up), receipt shown below.

    Ordered mobile order today. Was greeted with nice staff who saw that my order would be out shortly. My order was ready within three minutes of me arriving and it was nice and hot and ready to go. The store is very cute. Looks like everything is fresh and well kept. Will definitely go back!!!

    It's BobaTime is not a place for high quality tea lovers, but they have great smoothies and a variety of milk tea flavors. They generally get their tea flavor from tea powders or syrups so it's not as good as brewed tea. However, I still appreciate their smoothies and milk teas. In particular, I think their mango, kale green, and pistachio frappe smoothies are really tasty. This time I chose to go with a mango smoothie with boba. At this particular location, the drink felt a little watered down - not as thick and creamy - but it was still pretty good.

    Super cute spot and so close to GCC campus. A great place to stop on the way to class. Everyone is super sweet and the boba is great!

    If you are NEARBY and crave it, GO FOR IT. If you have option to go elsewhere, do so. Overall is 2.8 rating 2 This place is small so during after school hours. around 2pm to 5pm, oh dear... help! Slow service turnaround, LOUD kids (bless them), just too crowded, barely able to sit down on the benches since it will be occupied with the kiddos. 2 I ordered online today, the app said that my drinks will be ready the most at 4:08pm (I ordered around 3:50pm) around 18 minutes - and now it's 4:30pm and they still haven't done it - already 33 minutes!! I initially gave them 3 stars, but now realizing I've been waiting 33 minutes, sorry I had to take another star down for this waiting time. 3 Service. I encountered one cashier that has low energy. Not excited to greet. Answer questions in a flat tone. She probably had a rough day, but a frontline staff can't have that attitude unfortunately. 4 For the drink taste and quality. They are pretty good and they make the drinks consistently same taste. Just very unfortunate that the other factors made me not wanting to return unless I don't have option. 3 They have 3 space at the back of the building, You can park on the side as well but it gets full easily. You need to find it somewhere nearby.

    New boba spot in town!

    Yay! So glad a boba place finally opened close to my brother's house! Location is pretty good. Small interior but a good amount of outdoor seating! This was the soft opening so they were still figuring out the kinks, but overall everything turned out good. I had a lavendar milk tea and a rose macaron! Both were yummy! Milk tea texture is nice and they actually put light boba when I asked them to. Overall a nice new boba spot that I'll definitely be going to again! Stay Cheerful ;)

    I've tried many boba places in OC (the supposed "boba Mecca") and so far I really enjoy this one! I love that we can tailor the wetness and replace milk with healthier options. And on their good days the boba is warm and soft and fresh So far I like -match rose boba -taro milk boba -Thai Tea -* with almond milk, boba, and egg pudding at the lowest sweet level. 9.5/10

    Came here for the souffle pancakes and they didn't disappoint!…read more My party of 3 stopped by Saturday afternoon 2:30 pm and it wasn't crowded. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. We chose outdoor since it was such a nice day out. They have all of their desserts on display in the case, so you can peruse the options and see what looks good. So many of the desserts looked good, like the matcha yuzu chiffon crepe cake or the rose and lychee crepe cake. We ordered via the kiosk and got the mango sunshine souffle pancake ($16.50) and well as a couple drinks. My drink was the white peach lemon jasmine bliss ($6.25), with 50% sweetness and less ice. Even though there are signs everywhere saying that it takes 15-20 minutes for the souffle pancakes to be cooked, ours came out super quickly, in 5 minutes or so. We got it with the sauce on the side, but I regret doing that as I saw others getting it with the sauce on top and it was beautiful. The pancake was super fluffy and a bit eggy as well. We all really enjoyed it with the mango sauce. I made the mistake of eating the pancake first before trying a sip of my tea. The pancake was pretty sweet, so I could barely taste my drink, but I think it was good? I could taste a bit of the lemon but definitely not the white peach, which is a lighter flavor. I got a slice of their Hokkaido cheese cake roll for $7 to go and had it the next day. It was okay but definitely a bit pricy for what you get. I'd love to come back to try their other desserts and pancakes!

    Motto Tea Cafe was alright. I walked in and was greeted by 2 ordering kiosks. The pastries were…read moreyummy, but I wasn't too crazy about the drinks. I ordered a matcha coco jasmine tea and I found that the jasmine flavor completely took over. The oolong peach crepe cake was yummy! It had little peach chunks throughout. Good oolong/peach flavor was light, airy, and slightly sweet. The black sesame chiffon roll was also light and subtly sweet with a nice nutty flavor. The cafe itself was pretty small with 3 small tables, 1 big table, and bar seatings with charging ports. The bathroom was closed and it was really warm inside. I couldn't see myself studying or staying too long, which may be for the best since parking is tricky and street parking has a 2 hour limit. An okay experience, but I don't see myself coming back.

    I recently found out Bruster's Real Ice Cream has made its way to La Canada Flintridge Town Center…read morenear Descanso Gardens. Cool! I love the garden and I love ice cream. Perfect location! Got here in the evening. Parking appears limited where I was parked, but I know there are more parking at the town center. Anyway, I got lucky with a close parking spot. No inside seating. Just a couple tables and chairs outside. They weren't super busy at the time. I was the only person in line. This is my 2nd time trying Bruster's. My first time was at their Rancho Cucamonga location. Nick, the staff member who helped me, was very nice and helpful. I asked for recommendations on their best flavors. He graciously offered them. Thank you Nick! I got to sample a handful of flavors... Boston Cream Pie, Sea Salt Caramel, Death By Chocolate, Caramel Macchiato, and Cinnamon. Thanks for the samples! All the flavors were very good except for the Cinnamon which I thought was very light in taste. Since I was driving, I chose an ice cream shake instead of a cup or cone. Caramel Macchiato was my pick! It had a really nice caramel flavor with coffee bean bits. I was slightly disappointed that they didn't pile up the ice cream to the top of the lid. It stopped at the top of the cup. I felt I was shorted some ice cream unfortunately. Hence, 4 stars! Nevertheless, Nick was amazing. His service was fantastic. Wonderful conversation and experience. Ice cream shake was yummy. It was finished before I arrived home. YES, I will come back to try their other unique flavors! Thank you Bruster's!

    Thank you, 2026, for kicking off with ice cream--bold choice, no notes…read more Dog treats? Always free. As they should be. Bruster's : Rooted on the East Coast, now proudly hailed in California--coastal glow-up complete. There's no indoor seating, but who needs walls when you've got plenty of outdoor spots and good weather pretending it's effortless? It's the kind of upscale suburb where everything feels just right for a pit stop before a hike, or a slow cruise down Chevy Chase Dr. to peek at the Maison and quietly dream. One day, I will buy one. Manifesting responsibly. Until then I be capitalist, work hard, smile often, tip well, and stay far, far away from the loony. Cheers to ice cream beginnings and delusional optimism done right. Ohh yeah, with my puppy!

    Shaved ice from Oakobing on a summer night always hits, and this was no exception…read more The mango bingsu was the star of the show, hands down. Fluffy, snow-soft ice piled with real mango cubes and a milk drizzle on top - and even in the single-serving cup size, it was seriously worth it. We also tried the green tea bingsu, topped with matcha powder and mochi, which was solid but the mango stole the spotlight for me. Pro tip: the single size is pretty generous on its own, so unless you're trying to sample a few flavors, one cup does the job. We split two just to try different options and it worked out great for that! Parking along the street was hit or miss, but we went pretty late at night so it wasn't too bad. Sweet, refreshing, and exactly what a summer night calls for - will def be back to try more flavors, like the melon or strawberry!

The product is consistent and perfect every time. Portions are pretty big. Even the single serve can be shared between 2 people. Please look up the menu before arriving. Usually to order you walk in all the way to the kiosk and order from there. If the line is long there's also a QR code on the right side as you enter so you can order from your phone as well. The only thing that's been a consistent issue is there's nowhere to sit. Seating is available inside and there's even a few tables outside but this place is so popular that all the seats are always taken. Be prepared to take your desserts to go. You can walk up to the pick up area and ask for lids.
