Drink was one of the best strawberry smoothies I've ever had! Fast service, didn't wait for too long. Limited seating only, but not really their fault cause this is Japantown we're talking about. read more

I wished the mango pomelo came with a topping like sago. The store is across from the Anderson bakery. There's two kiosk on the side of the store or order at the front counter. The store is pretty small and can be busy since it is at 3 way intersection. Order a peach oolong ($6.50) and a mango pomelo ($6.50). The boba had great chew. The mango pomelo was more of mango slushie with some bits of pomelo. The peach oolong had great flavor, so I suggest getting their milk tea drinks. The order is somewhat quick and it is more of a to go place. Overall, a solid option for tea in Japantown. read more

This has to be the worst boba shop I have ever been to. Just because this location is in a tourist spot doesn't mean that it will be good. Me and a friend ordered two drinks one of them being a slushie and a milk tea. The milk tea did not taste fresh the milk tasted bad and artificially flavored. This isn't milk tea it's poison. The slushie was not blended correctly with huge ice chunks and half the drink being melted. Service here is terrible for making disgusting drinks. We just left the drinks outside not finished so people know to avoid this spot. read more

My daughter loves coming here. She always gets the Oreo Shake a fun get a brown sugar milk tea with boba. Both are amazing. You can order at the kiosk which is faster than the cashier as she is making the drinks as well. It's a small place. They have a few tables that they share with other businesses. read more

I come to Japantown very often and Pink Pink always has fast service. It's in the middle of the mall, perfect location to stop by while we shop. The boba was a little too chewy, but it can't always be perfect since it sits there for a while. But, the drinks were fresh and delicious. I love coming here for a quick drink! read more

One of my favorite spots in japantown for drinks and soft serve. I always order the soft serve when I'm here. They now have 2 kiosks for self order and drinks were ready really quick. I decided to try a new drink this time and it was a new item: green apple grape. Unfortunately this drink did not meet my expectations. It was really artificial in my opinion so will not order again. However the other drinks that Ive tried before were all really good! read more

For caffeinated, the peach oolong, for non-caff, the taro ube milk. Both with the lychee bits. And half sweet. Love them flow, ordering kiosks just around the corner from the pick up. Quick and easy. Don't depend on the phone/text when busy. Just look for your order on the counter/the people who ordered before you. read more

I wanted some boba while in Japantown, so I decided to give this place a shot. You can order at kiosks on the side or at the front. I got the peach oolong milk tea with boba, no sugar (the honey boba is sweetened) and that was perfect for me. I wish I got more ice since less ice was actually too little. The peach flavor actually didn't taste artificial tasting and came through nicely. Wouldn't mind getting again! read more

My mom got the matcha tomado and I got a milk tea. Overall my mom really liked her tea a lot, it was very sweet and creamy. I thought mine was good. If you are looking for the fresh boba tea with non powder flavors this might not be for you. If you're craving a boba tea, this might hit the spot for sure! Located right in a center food area in Japantown malls, it's nice to grab a drink here. It takes a while to get a drink and there are benches to sit. It was the weekend, so I understand the line. I felt like it was toooo big! I felt bad wasting half of it, but it was huge and very sweet. I will say you cannot bring drinks into other stores, so try to get the tea on the way out! read more

It was September 3rd 2023 when I flew up to visit my dear friend in SF for the first time. She took me to Japantown to show me around her new stomping grounds, and during our visit, we decided to find a sweet treat. I initially wanted boba, so we stopped by Pink Pink. We were probably drawn in by the name (we love the color pink), but ended up getting the peach ice cream to try something together. From the very first spoonful, our lives were changed. We were so delightfully surprised by how good it was. We were taken aback and wonderfully happy with our selection. It was PHENOMENAL! We became instant fans. Now, everytime I come up to the Bay to visit her, we stop by for the peach ice cream. She never gets it without me (she wouldn't dare) and we look forward to it every time. It's just as good every time we get it and it's a treat that we will alway look back fondly on. IT'S AWESOME!!! We love you Pink Pink Peach Ice Cream. During this specific trip we stopped by on my first day in, but THEY WERE OUT We were both so sad when we saw the out of stock image on the kiosk and immediately went up to the workers and asked when they would have it again. Thank god, they explained to us the machine was done but it would be up again the next day. So of course we came back as soon as it was back. There was no way I'd leave SF without a bite of peach ice cream. Please enjoy all my photos of the times we've had it. Thanks. read more

Came here for the Cherry Blossom festival since it was the last day. We used the kiosks as it was packed and efficiency seemed best this way. We ordered the black pink swirl which is peach and coconut ice cream swirled together. And we also ordered the Lychee Grape with salted cheese foam, lychee jelly, half sweet. The order came pretty quickly and I will say the swirl was tasty! I was hesitant on the lychee grape my wife ordered but it was actually pretty refreshing. The lychee jelly is something I really like. All in all, a busy day today here but the service was quick and the satisfaction was met! read more

This shop is in the Japan Town Center in Downtown SF. It's been here for awhile and this match delivered. It was creamy and very matcha concentrated. The service is fast especially ordered from kiosk only. Noise level is a bit high because it's a very tight small area where there's not much places to sit. There's restaurants, bakeries, anime shops and Pokémon card kiosk around also. read more

Love Pink Pink Tea Shoppe. Glad that they are now inside the Japantown West mall. Always love their drinks and used to go to the downtown one until they closed.

Pink Pink Tea Shoppe - Black milk tea fromage topping - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Francisco, California

This is located in a busy section of Japantown and gets plenty of traffic. It's a cute shop decorated with daruma dolls and lots of ads for their drinks. My friends and I have passed by this shop countless times, but today was the first day we actually tried it. Both of us opted for the black sugar milk tea as I've been on a kick with this for a few weeks. I decided to go with all the recommended levels of ice/sugar and toppings (boba pearls) and my friend decided to not get any toppings. We ordered at a kiosk and the drinks came pretty quickly. They came in cute black cups with the shop logo and we were excited to try them. After taking some pictures, we finally tried the drinks. My friend said hers tasted like it had a hint of fruitiness to it - I didn't taste that, and I thought there was a slight caramel flavor to mine. We decided that since it never specified which tea was used, it very well could be a fruit tea. The drink was not to my taste preference, but it wasn't bad. I wouldn't personally get it again, but I would like to try some of the other drinks/offerings. They all look very cute and delicious - definitely picture worthy! read more

It's been a while since I've stopped here. After finding time for lunch on a holiday week Friday, I decided to get drinks for my coworkers and me to bring to the office. After having a big bowl of Janpong across the street, I walked through the mall and studied their iPad menu selection. After ordering my coworker's chosen drink, I clicked the "Specials" category and saw an interesting option. I clicked it, getting two for my other coworker and me. I was intrigued by the packaging for my coworker's and my drink, the Pink Peach Smile (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=24&select=TQH7ZNRpn3msfZFW8yXvrw); the iPad didn't offer a description nor did it give any option for ice or sweetness. My guess of the description is a peach milk tea with peach flavored boba. My 1st sip brought back childhood flavors, remember those powdered strawberry milk from Nesquick? The peach boba was difficult to make out until the last 1/4 of the drink. Do be cautious in sucking the boba through the straw as a couple went straight to my throat that prompted me to gasp. Still, this drink certainly made me smile. I would not hesitate to have this again. I really like that they have a good variety of fruit drinks though it would be nice to know the descriptions more clearly before ordering. I am looking forward to seeing what they have next time I dine in J Town. read more

The tea is nice, though you can definitely taste some artificial flavoring in certain drinks. Their fruit teas though always hit the spot and are refreshing. Plus, the drink sizes are generous, so you definitely get your money's worth. No place to sit though in front of the store but you can find a seat anywhere in the japantown plaza so that's no problem. read more

Went during a BUSY cherry blossom festival day with 4 other friends. I honestly forgot what we all ordered, but I remember that we all enjoyed our different drinks which speaks to the consistency and quality of Pink Pink's drinks! Although the service was (understandably) slow that day, they usually finish their drinks within a reasonable time. We ordered through one of their kiosks, very straightforward. Just remember to print a receipt or text the receipt to your phone so you know what number you are. The daruma-inspired statue in front and the traditional Japanese-inspired storefront are a fun touch! read more

An unassuming portal to unique crafted tea drinks! As a local who has lived in the Bay Area my entire life, it's a bonus when really good and trendy eats is paired with a local woman-owned small business. Ever since my trip to Japan pre-covid I've embraced all things matcha and Pink-Pink tea really hits the spot. Tried the Matcha Milk and Coconut Pinko-Nut and got a special treat. They are constantly testing hundreds of recipes to come up with only the best-looking, best-tasting and best-for-you drinks (per their website) and I believe it. Passing by this hole-in-the-wall in Japantown you wouldn't think that it is actually a portal to delicious and unique low sugar organic drinks that will make your Instagram pop! To be honest with you, approaching the shop from the walkway I always focused more on the Japanese-ish statue and the Pink-Pink signage rather than the Tea Shop sign above the small counter. I've passed by it many times and previously had the wrongful impression that it was selling "Hello Kitty" kitsch rather than drinks! read more

......... Is this what I deserve for resorting to boba in tourist central? For SF's cutthroat Yelp scene, I would expect boba shops to be torn to shreds for any middling. Pink Pink is a far cry from decent, yet still somehow maintains 4 stars........... My bf offered to grab Yifang but I decided to be daring and bold and venture into unfamiliar territory :') The kiosk was wide open, no line in sight. As I was ordering, lots of items were marked as sold out, including their regular boba pearls (!!!!). PEACH OOLONG BOBA MILK TEA: Plasticky, artificial flavor... Kind of tastes like peach milky candy? The sweetness was overwhelming... I added crystal boba which broke up the sugar a bit, but the flavor remained sickly sweet. This is their most popular drink? Behind the noren, there appeared to be only one employee flitting in and out sporadically. I waited at the nearby bench, and saw not a single other order pass through the curtain. It was just me. And took 15 mins...? Not sure why I bother with food in Japan Center, it's almost always a miss... read more

Ordered the Cheese Foam Peach drink at the location in Japantown indoor shopping center. Love Pink Pink, each location is so aesthetically decorated and has a unique theme/concept! This one had lots of black decor with unique Asian inspired elements. The Peach drink was yummy, and the Cheese Foam changes the flavor profile significantly to change from fresh and fruity to more savory and heavier. The taste isn't that unique among boba shops, but still so enjoyable! Service is automated checkout kiosks and pickup counter. Overall enjoyed my experience and would come back! read more

Came by Pink Pink for a quick boba run. I got the peach oolong milk tea, my friend got the taro ube. Both drinks came out in under a minute -- crazy fast.

This tea shop is specialized in comparison to other tea places in the way that their menu is smaller with unique flavors. Other places sometimes have way too many options. The Cheesefo Very Mango (mango coconut slush with salted cheese foam topping) is my go-to, but I also enjoy Matcha Tornado. They have what looks like delicious ice cream, though I have not tried it yet. I have tried Pinko-nut which is their coconut pudding in large, cute jars and I like it a lot. I've had the mango which has fresh mango and coconut pudding. At this location (Japantown), I order on the kiosk. It's simple, quick, and our orders come out quickly as well. read more

We stopped here to fix our tea craving. We haven't had the tea here before, so we decided to give it a chance. You order from the kiosk app and pay with an app or by card. I ordered the milk tea without any toppings. Once it's ready, they call your number to pick it up. First, I do have to say that I love the black cups. My milk tea tasted like more of a peach/strawberry milk tea rather than a regular milk tea. There was no option or name of what type of tea leaves they were using. It didn't say oolong tea or other types of teas. So, if you are particular about teas, I don't know if this is the right option for you. The tea taste was very faint. This place is also located in the mall. There is no ambiance, just people walking around and looking at things. This is in front of Andersen's bakery. read more

They may have to take my Asian card away (...it's yellow, of course) because I wasn't drawn to this little shop for the boba. It was for the pudding. Yes, pudding in a jar reminds me of Jell-O pudding cups. I still buy them just in case I have a weak moment and need something creamy and cold as an emotional salve for whatever disappointment life has handed me. I can get a four-pack of the chocolate-vanilla swirl for $2.79 at Target. So it was with trepidation that I was willing to pay $10.99 for a jar of the Cocoa Milk & Coconut (photo: https://yelp.to/LQKf6Rt1WL). Little did I know I was paying for the jar. When I tried to return it in a bid for recycling, the staff person refused. The pudding was tasty enough for me to return a few months later and try the Mango Milk & Coconut which had nice chunks of mango (photo: https://yelp.to/bFJbHI4CLa). That jar now holds my pushpins. FOOD - 4 stars...I like the pudding, what can I say...even if it was pricey AMBIANCE - 3 stars...not much to see in front of the computer screen SERVICE - 3 stars...little interaction TOTAL - 4 stars...pudding in a jar is something I just need sometimes RELATED - Exploring J-Town?

Very easy to understand the online order system even for someone who is not very familiar (very visual) . I ordered the passion fruit with lemon tea and it was delicious.

I also tried their Matcha Tornado drink. Very creamy. This place could take a little while to prepare your drinks. read more

Finding this place was a happy accident and turned out to be one of the best stops of our day trip! My husband pointed out their peach soft serve and I love anything and everything peach. It was super easy to order on their kiosk. I wish they would ask for a name or give you an order number on screen though, because I chose "no receipt" and then had no idea what order number I was when they called out orders. I ordered the Blackpink soft serve. I was trying to find out what flavor the black soft serve was online but couldn't find it anywhere so the soft serve must be brand new to the menu! They did have a sign stating they would offer free topping in place of the ice cream cone. That worked for me since I wanted it in a cup anyway! The ice cream swirl was super pretty. It tasted delicious too! My husband isn't a big peach fan but he loved the ice cream so I guess that saying something! Their drinks looked delicious too, especially the ones with cheese foam. We were definitely regretting not getting one! read more

Easy ordering, efficient, cute and tasty drinks! What more can you ask for? It's a fairly recent chain that I haven't heard of until now and all of their locations are exclusively in the Bay Area with one that will be opening up in Las Vegas. Ordering is through 2 touch screen kiosks. There's options for adjusting ice, sweetness, and toppings as with all other boba places and they also have coconut pudding here too (looks like the trend caught up north too). We got the: 1) Pink Pink: -This is one of their top 10 drinks, if not the most popular drink that is one the menu and I can see why. -It's a nice sweet and yummy tea slush type drink with salty foam cheese at the top. Tastes like a candy and I INHALED this. I'm usually not one for sweet drinks but this was so perfectly peachy and tasty that I LOVED it. If I ever get a chance to go back here or to another Pink Pink, I'm definitely reordering this. 2) Lapsang Souchong Milk Tea: -Of the many, many years of my boba drinking time I have never seen a "lapsang souchong" milk tea before and if I have had something like this, I'm sure it was given a different name. -Apparently it's a smoked black tea from the Fujian province in China and you can definitely tasted the nice smoky flavor of the tea leaves in this drink. -Despite being at 0% sweetness, the tea was very enjoyable with the milk acting as a natural sweetener that made the drink itself very smooth and creamy. -Another reorder here for us 100% Definitely a great boba place to grab a drink as you trek through Japantown and I'm crossing my fingers that they open a Pink Pink one day in the 626. read more
