pretty standard boba shop, but unfortunately sawtelle has higher standards which is why it has such low ratings! surprisingly, it was still pretty busy when i went and i had to wait. i thought the salty thai bliss was really yummy! i thought the boba was also done well, not too chewy or soft. read more

Noble Tea - Salty Thai Bliss (Boba Included) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Teas were good but the wait was long. We walked there after dinner and ordered on the tablet. They were busy and just have had a lot of online orders. After ordering, the estimated ready time was 10 minutes but it ended up being 20 minutes. There is no indoors seating but they do have some outdoor benches and tables. Somi somi is next door and was very busy and they took some of the noble tea seats even though there are signs tables are for Noble teas read more

Such good boba the portions here are great Lots of variety and you're able to adjust the sugar levels and tea used in the milk teas. They give a lot for what you pay for. They also have great popcorn chicken You order online which can be tricky at first but after a while you get used to it. The system is pretty easy to navigate. I usually get my drinks within five minutes. read more

Great spot for boba tea with a wide variety of drinks and toppings to choose from. The service is attentive, and fast, and the shop is clean and well maintained. I especially love the self-order kiosks, which make the process quick and easy. You can customize everything from your sugar level to toppings and add-ons, making it easy to get your drink exactly the way you like it. read more

Parking was a bit hard to find but I did go on a Friday night. There are parking structures nearby and some street parkkng but those get taken quickly. You can order ahead or on the kiosk. We ordered there and the order came out faster than the estimated time we got. Aside from the many drink options they also had food. The staff was friendly and the drinks were so tasty and refreshing. We got the Taro Milk Tea with Lychee, Brown Sugar with fresh milk boba Tea, Strawberry milk tea. P.S. they charge an extra $1 for no ice and the smallest size was 24oz. read more

Solid boba shop in Sawtelle. Slightly above some standard chains. I ordered the Salty Thai Bliss and it was enjoyable. I prefer creamier drinks so this was right up my alley. The Thai tea flavor was good and I liked the milky flavor of the cream. Mixed together it was tasty. The boba pearls were also a great consistency, soft but not too soft. They weren't too sweetened, but that's okay since the drink itself was already sweet. I also liked how there wasn't too much ice in it. Just the perfect amount to avoid the drink becoming too watery. This was on the pricier side, but the large size made up for it. Overall, I was surprised that this was pretty good. The store is just a small room with no chairs or tables. You order on a tablet and the bobarista will call your order out. They also have food options. The service was interesting, I couldn't tell if the bobarista was being rude to me or that's how she genuinely is. She asked the entire room what's your order and didn't lookup so I was confused. I asked her if she was asking me and she replied 'yeah' in a way that wasn't friendly, so I was taken aback. Overall, an okay experience here. I would put this spot in rotation with other boba spots in the area. read more

The Baseline: For bubble tea cafes the drinks must have the proper temperature for the drink, suitably firm tapioca pearls, and the drink must be quality. Food: I ordered a large White Peach Tea with boba and it was a large, tall drink. Had a good amount of sugar but I would opt to go lower on your sugar count. Service: I felt sorry for the employee the day I went because she was handling every aspect of the drink prep to the customers. She was a work horse. Ambiance: The cafe is a little cluttered with storage near the front. The order kiosk is easy enough to use and is easy to customize. No bathroom available. read more

This location is on Sawtelle next to the somisomi. Small shop, no seating, kiosk ordering (super quick and efficient). I ordered the brown sugar milk with boba and it came out super quick. The boba is so soft and chewy. This brown sugar is very unique, tastes almost salty. Not my favorite but not bad. I would probably skip this and get another drink next time read more

Issue -- (Order #162) Boba was far too mushy. Drinks were not mixed prior to selling, so I was literally suckling up passion fruit syrup! Inexcusable prep work... no, it was not busy. It was simply not caring what is being served. read more

The waffle here is not chewy but still good because it came out warm. The ordering is convenient with the kiosks but unfortunately there's no indoor seating so you have to go to the outdoor seats on the street. read more

I tried Noble Tea's vintage house special black milk tea. It was great at the first few sips but the more I drank, the sweeter it started to taste. At the half way mark, it tasted like cereal milk. I only got 30% sweetness. It's good to try but I wouldn't get it again. read more

No cash accepted; kiosk only, fast service. Salty Thai tea has boba included. Highly recommend. Parking is easy to find behind the store. read more

Slowly becoming one of the spots I go to for boba and snacks, Noble tea serves up standard bubble tea drinks and traditional Taiwanese street food (like popcorn chicken). Because of this combo, unique to the area as far as I can tell, they have become a solid spot on my boba list. If I ever am craving both a snack and a drink, I visit Noble Tea! read more

Just had a pretty crappy encounter with the guy who I think is the owner. My 5-year old daughter accidentally broke a dispenser in his bathroom and he was a jerk about it to both of us. I told him about it and was fine to pay him something (and did pay) for it but he was really rude. Funny thing is I've been there a bunch for coffee over the years and now I won't go there anymore. Coffee is fine but the vibe isn't. read more

Tried this place out and the black milk teas were pretty good!!! I took off one star bc the crystal boba was a tad small and hard. Service was fast. It's located in a very small space so don't expect to sit down and chit chat with your friends. Will come back to give them another shot. Check them out! read more

Tip: The Mega size comes with a handle, but make sure it can fit in the cup holder (if driving out) before committing! Otherwise, you'll need to have a friend / carrier hold it if you want to enjoy it to avoid risking any spills on the drive home. - - - - - - Noble Tea's been on my sights for a while, but there wasn't an opportunity to try it until recently! I had their Thai Tea (25% sweet) with crystal boba, aloe vera, and egg pudding - why? I have no idea; the temptations of foregone free toppings and the avoidance of more calorie heavy options were difficult. I enjoyed ordering the mega because it also means that I have a drink for the next day. Since I didn't get boba, I didn't have to risk it getting hard in the fridge. The 25% sweet option was good, but still a tad too sweet or me. Next time I return, I may get no sugar. I will admit, though, these toppings did not mix well with Thai Tea (what was I thinking?) but for the best bang for your buck, I admit Noble Tea is probably the best option around Sawtelle / Westwood! read more

I stopped by Noble Tea on Sawtelle and tried the lychee black tea with lychee bits. It was super refreshing, especially for the summer--light, fruity, and not overly sweet. I'd definitely come back just for that drink. That said, I've tried a few of their milk teas in the past, and I have to say, they're a bit mid. I have pretty high standards for milk tea, and especially when it comes to matcha, this one doesn't deliver. The matcha tastes like the cheaper powder kind--not very smooth, a bit chalky, and not really worth the price. As for the location, there are no tables inside. There are a few outdoor tables, but since it's Sawtelle, it's usually packed and they're shared with nearby restaurants. So even if you do find a spot, it's not exactly the most comfortable or relaxing place to sit and hang out. Also, parking is pretty bad in the area, so be prepared to circle around or park a bit far and walk. Overall, 3 out of 5 stars. I'll come back for the lychee tea, but not much else. read more

Taiyaki was delish, would get again. Boba milk tea is great but the place is a bit inconsistent with the sweetness levels. The second time I got it was crazy sweet although I chose the same sweetness level as the first time. First time was delish. Would be back for taiyaki. read more

This place's fruit tea taste like sugar water even at 50% sugar level. I don't taste the fruit at all. The Kiwi tea had no tanginess to it. There were kiwi seeds at the bottom of the drink though. I'll say their pink jelly addon was very good though. But their fruit tea needs more work. maybe put more real fruit in it? read more

Came here since we were looking for tea while being around the area. The ordering machine decided to break on us when we arrived and was forced to order via the app which was far from ideal. After ordering through the app the order didn't go through so the host had to personally retake our order from the receipt we got on the app which was pretty much a waste of time. In terms of the drink, it was okay. Paid $5 for a standard milk tea 25% sweetness. Nothing bad but nothing spectacular but I didn't really like the ordering processes especially since everything was automated via kiosk or app, we couldn't order through someone when the services went down. Below average experience. read more

Came here with my daughter after dinner for some dessert. We got some custard & red bean taiyaki and the original mochi egg waffle. Our number was 275 & 276~ we were sitting outside in the cold waiting for our numbers to be called. More than 10 minutes later, we saw that it was at 277, what happened to our orders? A few more minutes past, I decided to walk in to ask (thank god I did), the worker was like oh, maybe their still making it- checks all the ready orders in front of him and handed me my 2 bags- no apology, nothing. My daughter said the egg waffle was doughy & tasteless. The taiyaki was not good- possibly the worse I've ever had. There was hardly any filling- the red bean pieces were hard, the batter was also tasteless, soggy & not crispy. This place was disappointing :( read more

Noble Tea had some positives--the Thai milk tea was pretty good, and I liked that you can customize the sweetness level (0%, 25%, 50%, 100%), which is a nice touch. But everything else was kind of a letdown. The Taiyaki I ordered was completely undercooked inside, just raw dough. The service was cold--no smiles, no greeting, just a general vibe that the staff didn't want to be there. You place your order on an iPad, so there's zero interaction, which isn't ideal, especially for a first visit. There's absolutely no parking around, and the shop itself is tiny and messy, with boxes stacked all over. Nowhere to sit and enjoy your drink--maybe one table outside, but that's about it. Honestly, not a place I'd go back to. read more

First time at noble tea. I tried the grapefruit with black tea and pulp, the taro waffle with condensed milk! Sooo good! Will be going back to try other snacks they have! Try it! You'll like them! read more

No messing around with this place. You get what you want and it's favorable. I got the mango slush with coconut jelly. It's just the right sweetness and coolness in the starting to get warm Cali weather in April. Self service console so it be a little annoying to scroll through especially for the senior crowd. The server really call out your drinks so have to watch carefully on your order what you get. I almost got someone else's drink but I was patient to wait these days. Go get one of these. It's refreshing for the long hot drive. read more

Not gonna be a go to for me sadly. I ordered a boba slush and popcorn chicken (double size). The boba slush was fine but not notably good and it was a little skimpy on the boba addon. The popcorn chicken was lackluster in my opinion -- the size felt more like 1.5X than 2X and the flavor was just alright, not super crispy or flavorful and the pieces were too chunky/large to enjoy the "popcorn" aspect. read more

I wanted some fish balls with boba so I went here. Upon getting there, no one greeted bc she was very busy working alone making drinks and food. Then I had to wait literally 15 minutes after 3 ladies together to pick a drink on only 'one' kiosk to order. After I finally ordered, the seats are outside so I waited out there. Mosquitoes were everywhere and I hate them bc they love me. Finally I get a text my order is ready and I couldn't wait to get out of there. She didn't even give me a straw and I had to ask for it and she went back to working without even saying sorry or thank you. I thought ok maybe the fish balls will make me feel better. I ordered the spice as mild. Well it was spicy! She doubled up on the spice seasonings. The fish balls were good but the spice was just too much for me. Never returning here. read more
