LOVEEE this place, My go to boba spot in rwc!!! They have a bunch of different options, and their onigiri is awesome! Staff is one of a kind they are all full of joy and super helpful explaining their menu and options. I would recommend 100%!! read more

Great boba! I got a mango popping boba and it was the best in bay area. The tea is fairly priced for bay area

I'm excited to have a yummy boba option closer to home now! Things I love: - The staff are great! - Lots of drink options! - A fun claw machine where you can win cute tiny stuffies. Warning that they're hard to win though (but it's possible). - Some cute little toys / keychains you can buy (and a guarantee to take them home vs. the chance of winning with the claw). Tips: - if you don't like your drinks very sweet, definitely reduce the sweetness level even down to 0%. These drinks are on the sweeter side. - You can do a big group order for your colleagues, for example, and make everyone's day! read more

My gf and I both got the Cocoa Cream Oat Wow and we got a full WOW of the taste of only Oatmilk and nothing else...also got the Cinnamon Sugar Croffle to only have ground cinnamon on my Croffle and no sugar...was excited to try a new spot but came out disappointed. Overall, they seemed a bit understaffed. During the time I went the girl behind the counter was making drinks/taking orders at the same time, felt bad she seemed overwhelmed. read more

Been to this location a few times and I absolutely love their fruit teas. However, when I came in last weekend it looked like there was a manager or unfamiliar older staff member (middle aged asian male) that caused an unpleasant experience for me. I rarely leave reviews but found this was important to share as a small business owner myself. I ordered my go-to drink at the kiosk and this manager or older staff member made my drink in a very careless manner. The usual workers I always see are so sweet and professional but this staff member made the drink while distracted (was talking to several people over the counter about business trends and other things) messed up the sugar level (ordered 0% and was given at 100%) and did not put the drink through the signature shaker. To top it off, there was no warm thank you once the drink was ready and he continued to be distracted while handing me a very poorly made drink. He left shortly after and I asked the other staff member who I've seen before if it would be possible to remake the drink. He handled the issue with care, remade the entire drink, placing it through the signature shaker and adjusted the sweetest accordingly (tasted perfect and how I always order it). I don't want to assume but this younger male appeared to be a high school or early college student. I don't think it shows good professionalism for a younger worker who may likely be paid less to have to have to remake what a manager, owner, or older staff member should be able to with even a higher level of professionalism -- especially for a business viewed well within the community :( read more

I've been wanting a boba shop in this part of town since the only other boba shops in Redwood City are clustered downtown! Welcome Kung Fu Tea! I've had Kung Fu Tea before and I like its fun colorful atmosphere. I think they have pretty good chewy boba. I do think their drinks tend to be on the sweeter side compared to other shops, so I will try other drinks next time and experiment with 0 or low sugar! I got the rose hip lemonade less sweet with boba. I thought the drink was good but definitely still very sweet even with less sweet, so when I got home I added some water and it was great! I like that this and many other drinks on the menu don't have caffeine since I shouldn't have any late at night. This place is definitely a grab and go place (no seating). I do like that there are two order kiosks so you don't have to wait long to order hopefully. Additionally, the parking lot is very small but usually has 1-2 spots open at night. read more

Kung Fu Tea in Redwood City is elite. From the moment you walk in, the staff is friendly, efficient, and genuinely happy to help you decide. Which is dangerous, because everything sounds amazing. This place is cozy and well designed, love the ambiance there. The drinks are consistently on point, perfect sweetness, strong tea flavor, and boba that's always chewy and fresh (never hard, never mushy). Shoutout to the new Prism Tower Punch, it's absolutely refreshing, fruity, and super vibrant, both in flavor and looks. Easily one of my new go-to drinks and perfect if you want something fun and not too heavy. Service is fast even when it's busy, the shop is clean, and orders come out exactly how you customize them. I've tried classic milk teas, fruit teas, and now the Prism Tower Punch, and they never miss. If you're in Redwood City and craving boba, this Kung Fu Tea is a must. Five stars, no question--already planning my next visit. read more

This was a rough Kung Fu Tea visit and I know they just opened at this Redwood City location, so I didnt give even lower stars for the visit. However, for a Saturday, they were very under staffed. I waited 45 minutes for 2 drinks. While waiting, there were folks who must have waited longer than me, because they were asking for refunds. One of the drinks that I ordered was missing the add-on boba that cost an additional 80 cents. I know they just opened this month (November 2025) and it takes time to find their rhythm, but seeing 30 people waiting for drinks inside is just unacceptable. I would have docked one more star for false advertising since the kiosk showed plush surprise keychains, but they ended up giving me small plastic keychains. Overall, I wish this visit was better, because I'm a huge fan of Kung Fu Tea. read more

Finally! Been waiting for Kung Fu Tea to open in our neighborhood - and it's great! The tea is tasty & well-mixed, and the boba tastes fresh with that classic buoyant boba texture - yes! Fun ambiance, with a Photo Booth coming, and with the service you can order via screens inside or with someone at the register. Also well-located with a free parking lot & plenty of street parking. Next to a Dunkin, Japanese curry restaurant, & Thai restaurant too! read more

Best bubble tea I had since being in Asia!!! Hands down! Love the vibe, the friendly staff, the quality of ingredients! Recommend!

We've been waiting since early summer for the new Redwood City Kung Fu Tea, so we were excited to check it out now that it's finally open! Kung Fu Tea (not just this location, but in general) has *great* drink flavors and a ton of options for kids and adults, from lemonades and slushes to tea and espresso beverages. VERY important info for your optimal tea experience: 100% sweetness here (at Kung Fu Tea in general) is ULTRA sweet-I've been to dozens of boba shops, and this has the most intense default sweetness. Most drinks do have adjustable levels, so start with 50-70%. If you prefer less in-your-face sugar levels, do NOT order anything without adjustable sweetness, like the Rosehip Milk Tea (delicious, but so SO sweet). Boba here is fantastic, both as "brown sugar wow" (I think this just means extra syrupy) and regular boba. Perfect bouncy texture and good subtle flavor and sweetness. This location was in soft opening when we went today, so they're still working out the kinks, but they were very friendly and it's clean and bright inside. You can order at the register or on screens inside the store, and they're getting their order ahead app set up this week. You can earn points to get add-ons and drinks. Between my family members, we had (I didn't note ice levels-we always get regular ice level): Espresso Thai Tea 100% sweet w/ brown sugar wow: My teen son loved it. I had a sip and it was tasty. Rosehip Milk Tea, non-adjustable sweetness, regular boba: I got this and the flavor is amazing-tart and floral-but it's so sweet I can't drink it all at once. In the future I'll stick to drinks with adjustable sweetness. I warned my teen daughter about the sweetness ahead of time, but she insisted on getting this one and found it to be too sweet to drink at all! Coconut Milk Tea 100% sweet w/ brown sugar wow: Good flavor, slightly thick, with a very sweet, but not overwhelming sugar level. My daughter tried it and also thought this one was too sweet. Provisional 4 stars, which may be adjusted depending on my next experience, during which we will plan to order our drinks at reduced sweetness levels (except my son, who liked his drink just as it was). Update: I went back and ordered an oolong tea 70% sweet today and it tasted like it had no sugar at all! I actually like a sweet drink, so now I'm not sure what to do next time! read more

I've been waiting for this place to open and the soft opening did not disappoint! The shop is super clean, bright, and welcoming, and the order process was quick and easy. I got a hot milk tea with 30% sugar and it was perfect, smooth, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. The staff were all really nice, especially Andrew, who was so friendly and helpful. So happy Kung Fu Tea is finally in Redwood City, I'll definitely be coming back! read more

It's about time we have great boba in Redwood City! This was my first time trying Kung Fu Tea, and it did not disappoint. The tea was refreshing, and the lychee jelly was fresh with the perfect texture and consistency - you can taste the quality of the ingredients. I appreciated that the store offers both self-order kiosks and the option to speak with an actual person. We had the pleasure of chatting with the owner, Drew, who was friendly, outgoing, and welcoming - it made the experience feel even more personal. A fun bonus was the gacha machine with cute toys, which added a playful touch. We ordered two drinks, and I drank most of mine during the five-minute ride home, which is a true testimony to how delicious it was. Thank you again, Drew. This truly made our Saturday night! read more

Love Kung Fu Boba! Great selections and can change sweetness to taste. Great addition to the neighborhood.

The girl who helped me seemed nice & welcoming. However, my strawberry matcha, which I ordered with less ice, was still full of ice despite reminding her. Additionally, the soup flavor I wanted wasn't available, and while I was flexible on the replacement, the chicken that came with it smelled off..almost like tuna. When I asked if it was chicken, I was assured it was. But it didn't taste right. Overall, great service, but some consistency on the food quality and preparation would really elevate the experience. The drink was good but I wish I didn't have finished it in just 3 sips because it was mainly ice. This little spot has potential bc like I said the drink was good , the employee was nice, but the ice to drink ratio makes me feel ripped off. I prefer to go to other matcha spots that aren't as stingy. read more

Hi neighbors! We discovered an awesome boba place My son went right at closing time, but the owner kindly made drinks for us anyway--and we even received a 2026 Bible verse. After we left, we realized we had forgotten our phone. Even though the store was already closed, the owner answered our call, came back from his house, reopened the store, and let us pick it up. I felt I should share this so everyone knows there's a truly special place worth checking out. Highly recommend stopping by and enjoying some of the warmest, most special boba drinks around. Enjoy! read more

The Jasmine Green Milk Tea here is absolutely delicious! The jasmine flavor is fragrant and refreshing, while the milk tea is smooth and perfectly balanced. The tea tastes fresh and not overly sweet, letting the floral jasmine notes really shine through. Definitely one of the best jasmine milk teas I've had--highly recommend giving it a try! Also, you can get the other teas unsweetened as well. Try the thai iced tea less sweet, it is amazing! Great friendly service, professionally made drinks, fun ambiance. read more

Best boba place in the area! My favorite is the passion fruit green tea! Great service!

Slowest boba place in the history of mankind..... even when there are just 2 people ahead of us, it has been over 20 mins... still waiting.

Consistently good great Gem in redwood city. Ghazal serves up a mean milk tea. Great drink great service we come back here a couple few times a week. Oh yes, the ambience really fun with Photo Booth and the claw stuffed animal machine thingy with great savory snacks. They keep adding new snacks, which is kind of cool. read more

Fantastic atmosphere. First thing I noticed were the mini claw machines on the left when you enter, then snacks in the other corner, many unique to Taiwan / Asia. My drink was delicious, and the vibe was homey and friendly. It felt like a place where you can meet folks from the neighborhood and chat without feeling rushed. Drew and family have outdone themselves in the care they've put into the shop. Awesome! Will be back. read more

Was rolling through woodside with the entire family when our thirst landed us at Kung Fu Tea! The lights were out but tried the door anyway, and it was Open! Turns out the shop was in soft opening, and the owner was just about to head home. But he welcomed us in to his shop anyway, turned on all the lights, and was ready to make us drinks! Seriously? Who does that? We ordered the rosehip lemonade, one with boba and lychee jelly and one with boba and grass jelly. No suger. Were both delish. Shop is small but clean, organized, and colorful. Everything looks brand new and inviting. Owner was very welcoming and friendly. Even introducing us to the neighboring store owners on our way out. Looking forward to return when the store is fully opened. read more
