Second time giving this spot a chance and tried some new food options! Popcorn chicken is delicious, and the fried tofu was a secret delight with two side sauces that pair perfectly with the crispness of the tofu. The loco moco personally fell flat for me as the burger patties were dry and overcooked. The gravy was yummy though, and I loved the side salad despite the patties. My brother also got a burger that I didn't get the chance to snap a picture of, and he also said the patty was pretty dry. Despite that though, I would still recommend their food options just probably not any of their beef options!

Located in the Ingleside neighborhood, Purtea offers a variety of tea drinks along with snacks to go with your drink. Upon entering the tea shop, patrons are greeted with a cute floral-themed interior. You can order via their kiosk or in-person with the cashier. We decided to go with their classic milk tea and orange green tea. The classic milk tea was a true representation of milk tea, in which the sweetness and milk was not too overpowering and the tea in the drink still shined through. If you're read any of my reviews before, you know I love my fruit teas, and orange green tea is one of my absolute favorites. The orange green tea from Purtea does not disappoint and I would go back to order it again without a doubt. While I did not sample any of their appetizers and snacks this time around, I'll be sure to do so next time if I'm looking for a bite to eat. If you're in the Ingleside - Ocean Avenue area and find yourself craving tea drinks or snacks, then Purtea is the pur-fect spot for you!

I've had my eye on this spot for a couple of months and I'm so glad I gave it a try. What caught my attention was their fried pork chop over rice. Pretty huge portion for $13.95. I got it with curry sauce and it did not disappoint. The curry didn't taste like the typical Japanese curry with a lot of spices.. it's more like the HK style cafe curries.. idk man but I loved it. I do wish it came with a little more sauce because I'm a sauce drinker LOL. The pork chop had the perfect amount of batter and it was perfectly crispy and seasoned. So tender. Came with a bed of white rice and cabbage/salad. Once you walk in, you can order from the kiosk or online. Then they'll call your order when it's ready. Basically you can choose to dine in or dine out because it comes in a to go container for convenience. Overall, solid spot. 4.5/5. Would come back! 03.06.2024 | Wednesday @12:40pm

The Green fruit tea here is delicious and the place has a nice cool/homey vibe. I got the Mixed Fruit tea with Boba and my husband got the Passionfruit. The flavor of mine was boldly fruity. My husband's was not as strong as mine, but still very enjoyable. We also got an order of Popcorn Chicken. The flavor was good. But the pieces were smaller without much actual chicken. And they were a little dry. I'd go back for the tea, but pass on the chicken.

The only reason that this place is getting 2 stars is because of their great service otherwise this place is really low bar to me in terms of Boba places. When you walk into this cute little Boba shop, you are nicely treated by one of the servers. I had a hard time choosing a drink and the server gave me some recommendations and decided to get the Ube Iced Milk and the Popcorn Chicken. The Ube Iced Milk was very disappointing. I was basically purple Milk because I could not for the life of me taste any Ube in it. As for the Popcorn Chicken that was a little better being that it was nice and crunchy, but that was it. It really lacked any flavor. Overall, the food and drinks were meh but the service was great.

Take out table (with the only outlet beneath)

Ambience 5/5 Super cute café randomly open in the ocean area. The area has plentiful, meter parking in front, or there are places you can residentially park/parking lots nearby. Not too difficult to find parking :) Now, when I look at cafés, I always think about how good they are to do work (reading, busting out a laptop to get work done, calls, etc.). Overall a super cute café with about seven tables that you can sit at. Along with some bar seating. We came during a Saturday afternoon and it was pretty empty. So there were plenty of seats. Only downside is that there is one outlet in the whole public area and it is under the take-out table. That also is pretty inconvenient since it would have to span across the walkway... I would highly recommend bringing a power strip or a well-charged laptop! The music is also a little bit loud if you wanted to make calls. Overall super cute! Service 5/5 The gal who helped us out was so kind :) they have been open since mid October 2023. Drink included brew time so it was pretty good Tea 4/5 We got a hot tea since it was chilly out, it was the oolong sweetened with half French vanilla and half honey. Overall it tasted like a brewed tea sweetened - nothin too special and a tad watery. Kinda like a homemade tea. But maybe it's cause we made the alteration of full French vanilla to part honey?? But maybe the cold drinks are better! I'll be back to try the popcorn chicken next time!

Amazing drinks and food, the quality of milk tea is excellent, everything's fresh, not the chemical powder stuff at all ! The owner is extremely nice and sweet, this is the type of people make food with care, she makes food the way she would cook for her family. What a delightful spot to have some boba and snacks ! 5 stars !

Grilled Pork Chops Over Rice w/ black pepper gravy & Loco Moco w/ two beef patties, over easy egg | $13.95 each

4.5 STARS ANOTHER boba shop in the city?! I can virtually hear the *scoffs* and see the *eye rolls*. I feel you! I do. But, hear me out. Purtea is not just any boba shop, they have a full kitchen and are serving budget-friendly rice plates for $13.95...with enough food for two meals. Softly opened last month, Purtea (FKA Not Latte in Inner Richmond) has merged with Mealtime Cafe. They're open for takeout, delivery, and indoor dining. I hope proper signage is the works. Unless someone is walking by and/or actively looking for Purtea, it's easily missed. Had I not seen a yelp ad, I wouldn't have known they were there. O R D E R I N G There's one kiosk or order ahead via Muncho. Note: For special requests, e.g. meat temperature, you'll have to alert the staff. There's no tip option on the kiosk. Hope the owner(s) consider adding one for those who don't carry cash. Delivery available via 3rd party apps with no markups. M E N U DRINKS * Fruit teas, milk teas, fruit latte, milk teas, lattes, coffee, etc. Prices: $3.50-$6.95. --Toppings: Housemade boba, crystal boba, lychee jelly, mango jelly, etc (+50 cents each). No grass jelly. --Sweetness: Regular, less sugar, no sugar, extra sugar --Dairy alternatives: Soy, almond, oat (+50 cents) FOOD * Snacks: Fries, mozzarella sticks, popcorn chicken, egg rolls, fried potstickers, wings, etc. ($5.75-$12.50) * Burgers & Sandwiches w/ fries ($12) * Rice plates: Loco moco, teriyaki chicken, grilled pork chop/chicken steak, fried pork chop/chicken steak, etc. ($13.95) O U R O R D E R * Grilled Pork Chops w/ black pepper gravy ($13.95): https://tinyurl.com/6veva8n6 A HK cafe type dish - a heaping bed of hot, fluffy rice crowned with two slabs of grilled pork chops. The pork chops (2) were tender with a nice seared crust, tho aggressively seasoned for my preference. Since it's served with a side of rich, savory gravy, there wasn't need for much salt. The accompanying crisp cabbage + corn slaw with a creamy dressing helped balanced the meaty dish. * Loco Moco w/ two beef patties, over easy egg ($13.95) --Requested medium rare but was told they can only do medium. This wasn't my dish but I had several bites and it was my fav of the two rice plates. While thin, the angus beef patties had a beautifully seared, deep mahogany crust with a slightly pink center. Moist and flavorful. The accompanying gravy had this commercial taste/feel about it but with the beef patties and perfectly cooked rice, there was something just so simple and satisfying about it. The over easy egg is over hard so I would request a sunny side up egg to ensure a runny yolk. We could only finish half our plates and had enough for a second meal. S E R V I C E Even it's contactless ordering, the staff is very kind. Asked if we had questions and offered a sample of their pineapple green tea (skipped it since it was too late to have caffeine). With no line, our order was ready in 10 minutes. A M B I A N C E Low-key, modern with 5 tables and counter seating. P A R K I N G Street and residential parking; easy during non-peak hours. Overall, Purtea is serving up tasty rice plates that's easy on the wallet. If you're looking for a filling Asian comfort meal, give them a try!

Popcorn chicken, dirty mango fruit, dark roast oolong

Carolyn M.

Affordable milk teas and a good sized food menu along with a cute indoor area and a lot of seats available for a boba shop! The worker was very nice, but our drinks took a while to come out on a calm Friday afternoon. I wanted to like the drinks more than I did, but I'm willing to keep trying a couple more. Dark roast oolong latte: not very sweet at regular sweetness, which was good! And the flavor of the tea was also good! But it was watery, so that was disappointing. Dirty mango fruit drink: tastes like what you would expect for a drink made of fresh mango, brown sugar, and milk. Not very sweet either. The popcorn chicken was too salty and had the smallest popcorn pieces of any popcorn chicken I've ever ordered. There was more popcorn than chicken, tbh. It also comes with a sauce, which surprised me. For basically 10 dollars, I don't think it's worth it.

Purtea took over where the Mayflower Restaurant once was, nearby the karate/music place. They're a new boba shop on Ocean, but they're not new really a new business. They recently moved here from 6th Ave and just celebrated their grand opening this past weekend. To celebrate their grand opening this week, their promo is buy TWO drinks and get a free drumstick (kinda random). I awkwardly came in on grand opening day, on grand opening time. They open 1p-9p, which is a little late in my opinion. Kinda wished they opened around 11:30a. The place was empty with a couple people but family & friends started to trickle in to celebrate this new beginning for them. I almost thought the owner was someone I knew cause the design of the place and the menu are almost EXACTLY the same as the After Hours Bar (before they changed ownership and it became a boba shop too) - I had to do a double take on yelp! One of the family members was talking to me and pointed out who the owner was, but it wasn't someone I know. The family member told me their family history where they were freedom swimmers escaping from China and they're so proud their niece opened up this place. It was very interesting! For first day, they did not have honey boba or jasmine milk tea available. The menu is a little overwhelming, as they have all sorts of drinks (lattes/coffee, smoothies, milk tea, etc) and bar-style finger foods. There's a little something for everyone like when you want boba tea and your partner wants a coffee. I ordered the Mixed Fruit Green Tea (passionfruit, orange, mango) w/ crystal boba. The drinks are competitively priced and it was good. It was sweet and refreshing. I also ordered popcorn chicken w/ a sriracha mayo dipping sauce and the popcorn chicken pieces were 'bite-sized' and tinier compared to other places I've been, but it was good and hit the spot. I'd definitely come back again, as the food/drinks are good and the place is aesthetically pleasing. Glad to have a good boba spot in the neighborhood and hope to see them stay.

Hot Ube Latte 10/10 I wish it was a little hotter though.

First time dropping into Purtea. One associate gave out free samples to us as we walked in and made us feel welcomed. They were very helpful and generous. We also got popcorn chicken and the flavor and crispiness was unexpected from this small boba shop. 10/10 would get again. The store had cute decor and the ambiance was nice. Definitely would come back here to hangout or study.

This place is cute and the drinks are pretty. The drinks aren't the best; a bit watered down and barely tastes like tea. The service is great, drinks come out pretty fast. I won't be coming back.

I enjoy doing work on my laptop here. Wifi connection is good and there's enough seating in here. PLUS, they're open until 9pm. The drinks are good. Food is good for what it is, nothing too exciting. The corn dog tasted like a corn dog, but the honey mustard sauce made it fire. My drink was a hot jasmine milk tea. Perfect piping hot temperature but still able to drink as soon as I got it! This my go to spot for when I need to be productive after work.

I love the vibe of this place, but definitely bring a jacket it can get quite chilly! It's a nice place to study with plenty of seating and free wifi, they just didn't have accessible outlets so come fully charged. I love shops with both a full menu and drinks, so that was nice. I had a mango espresso drink with lychee, it was unique, I loved the mango and lychee but next time I will probably go without the espresso. I also had the Loco Moco and curly fries. Fries...delicious, can't go wrong with fries. The Loco Moco was okay, but I wouldn't get it again. I will definitely come back and try other menu items though. read more

Love this place because the people are nice and the quality is good. they also play light music instead of blasting it like at other places. So far I've only had the taro milk tea bc it's so good that I keep coming back for it. I like to get the fries too bc they're perfectly seasoned, crispy, and come with a good dipping sauce. They actually put effort into a simple snack and I appreciate it. Can't wait to come back next time! read more

A decent boba shop on Ocean Avenue with beautiful decorations! A friend of mine bought me boba from this place last Saturday. She ordered me the mixed fruit green tea which consists of passionfruit, orange, and mango. Since they ran out of the honey boba, she substituted it with crystal (agar) boba. That drink was pretty tasty and refreshing. The agar boba was chewy too. I enjoyed the drink so much, my husband, toddler, and I came here on Monday (two days later). My husband got the strawbana which was a fresh strawberry banana smoothie with oatmeal. Our toddler was able to try that too since it was healthy. That drink was good but since I was craving for that mixed fruit green tea, I ordered the same drink this time with honey boba. It was still good but I actually prefer their agar boba here, which would be the first. I ordered the yogurt green tea drink for my sister and she really enjoyed it. All the drinks were not very sweet and decent price for the size (starting around $5.5) and being located in SF. Service was quick and you order through the kiosk machine. Definitely would come back here to try the other drinks and food! read more

This was my first time coming here with my boyfriend. Food and drinks were sub-par. The store was very stingy about giving bags for takeout. We ordered 2 rice plates and 2 drinks, but when we asked for a bag to help us carry it out. The guy did not give us a bag and that made it difficult to bring the food home. We also saw another customer before us experiencing the same thing. The overall quality of everything was Sub-par. The service was disappointing and unpleasant. It was not worth the wait. read more

We came for boba and got dinner also. The boba was really good and the ambiance was so nice. But the food wasn't good. My son got the fried pork chops n I got the teriyaki chicken. The pork was super salty from the piece I tried. The chicken was kinda gross. The portions were large but the taste wasn't there. It tasted like low quality meat.

Saw this place recently opened on ocean and was excited to try but was somewhat disappointed in the options. I understand it was the soft opening but I didn't expect them to be out of boba so quick (I ordered around 3pm on a Saturday). I got the matcha latte and it was more watery than I would've liked. I also found a piece of the match whisk in my drink so that was an unpleasant surprise. Also for $7 I was expecting a higher quality drink so I felt a bit robbed. Hopefully they stock more boba before they officially open but will not visit again any time soon. read more

A cute gem in SF. Came in on a weekday so there were plenty of street metered parking in front of the store. However, street parking will be sparse during commute hours. There's plenty of seats and tables inside for people to hang out in. Drink: Ordered a Paradise. Regular sweetness. Has a good balance of sweet and sour (citrus). Good: Ordered popcorn chicken. I like how it comes with a side of ranch. The popcorn chicken tastes like other popcorn chicken; the difference is the size. It's a lot smaller. You can adjust the spice level. read more

I absolutely love this place! I've been going here every week or two since their soft opening and I still can't find a menu item that misses. Highly recommend the fried chicken/popcorn chicken sandwich or over rice, curly fries, and all of the fruit teas! The milk drinks are also very comforting. All the rice plates are definitely worth it after a long day at work. The staff are so nice and helpful! I've taken food out, eaten in, and even munched on things while doing work on my laptop inside (free wifi). Very down to earth staff and space. I haven't felt this cozy in a milk tea place in a long time. I always love their playlist. I only wished that they had a stamp card of sorts. Either way, I plan to continue being a frequent customer. Hope they stick around for a long time! read more

One of the best modern and exquisite-tasting boba shops I've ever been to. Greeted upon arrival was the ambiance of an establishment, being immersed in their cute decor and breathtaking sight of the vibrant yet subtle atmosphere this place gives out. The teriyaki chicken is to die for--the most aromatic and juiciest chicken I've had indeed--laid upon a bed of white rice with a side of shredded cabbage, which was finely drizzled in sauce. The wide selection of boba really stands out to its highest degree by far. I personally like the strawberry iced milk if you're having one of those sweet tooth moments. Overall, I recommend coming here if you haven't already, because it's a great hangout spot for friends and family! read more

On walking in, you'll be impressed by the tastefully designed interior. The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between cozy and modern, making it an ideal place to catch up with friends or enjoy a moment of solitude. Tracy is also exceptionally welcoming and ready to assist with the extensive menu. The taro milk tea and popcorn chicken stand out for me as personal favorites so far. In a city saturated with boba options, this new shop shines. Whether you're a seasoned boba enthusiast or a newcomer, this spot is guaranteed to impress. I'm excited to see how this place evolves, and I will certainly be a frequent visitor. Overall, pretty good! read more

Soft opening right next to sweet cupz, sounds like competition but it has a really nice interior to sit down in, has wifi but no power outlets so come with a full battery or charge in the library nearby. Street parking in residential is recommended! I got the holy howl to experiment but it was alright, the coconut milk did not really add flavor to the avocados make a splash of condensed milk would have been nice. Also had some pieces of the pit in my drink too (hence the 4 stars) I'll still come back as they had food I wanted to try as well! read more

ordered the popcorn chicken, classic mt, and strawberry yogurt green tea. the popcorn chicken tasted okay but they gave the samllest portion with the chicken being the tiniest little things ive ever seen. it was such a big difference from the pictures they advertise and i felt scammed for sure. the black milk tea tasted like straight water with the only flavor being the lychee jelly i added. the strawberry yogurt was okay, not good but not bad, but it tasted like when you eat too many smarties in a sitting. the overall order was around $20 which i thought was more than it was actually worth. would not recommend coming here. read more

Ballast…read moreCoffee was the perfect place to go to because it is less than 10 minutes away and has a lot of street parking available (which is rare in SF lol). Like everywhere else in SF, you have to pay for street parking but it's free after 6pm! The vibes inside are of a typical coffee shop and there is a good amount of tables and seats! The barista makes each drink one at a time, so it could take a while to order and get your drinks, but it just shows that they are very intentional with their drinks! I was super excited to find out that Ballast Coffee is actually a Filipino coffee shop that serves Barako Coffee, which I believe they source from the Philippines. They also sell barako bean roast blends for $20 in case you wanted to make it at home! Since they use Filipino barako beans, I had to order their Ube iced latte and Ube hot chocolate! The coffee had a slightly fruity yet chocolatey undertone that made it really delicious with the Ube! I do think that the coffee had a lighter taste to it, so it let the ube taste stand out more. My favorite was the Ube hot chocolate because it was super decadent and warming! I'll definitely be back at Ballast Coffee to study more and to also try their Ube Mocha as well as other drinks!

I've introduced so many friends to the hojicha einspanner and everyone loves it too! Even though Diamond has multiple locations, this is the only one that serves hojicha. I hope the other locations will add hojicha to their menus too. But what stands out the most to me is the einspanner. It's unbelievably yummy; it's thick, fluffy, and tastes like marshmallows! I could honestly eat a whole bucket of it! The hojicha itself is a little on the lighter side, but it still has a delicious nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with the einspanner. Once it's all mixed together, the balance of nuttiness and sweetness is perfect. The space is super cute and has a cozy camping theme. Most of the seating consists of camping chairs and tables that really tie into the aesthetic, so there are only a few tables that are ideal for studying or getting work done. It's definitely a fun spot to hang out and catch up with friends. I also love all the little tributes to the owners' dog, Diamond. You'll find little touches of Diamond everywhere--from the napkins and cup holders to the free stickers. I highly recommend stopping by and trying the hojicha eispanner.

The pastries are all flaky and crispy, and you can tell they were crafted by a true craftsman. I think what makes Juniper so special is the selection of unique flavors they have. My favorite being their award-winning Cubano croissant, their black sesame kouign amann, and their choux pastries. I do want to call out how much I appreciate the amount of savory pastries they have since I don't always want a sweet treat the moment I wake up. To note, Juniper is typically busy, but I have never waited in line for more than 10 minutes, even on weekends. They also have a lot of tables for seating, but because of the flow of people, it might be difficult to find a spot. Stop by here if you're around the area! They are also a sister shop of Saint Frank, so you can get some coffee while you're here as well.

Even though…read morethere was what looked to be a pretty long line out the door we were able to order and get our pastries, find a seat in the collection of somewhat crowded indoor tables and stools and enjoy a few pastries in less than an hour. The workers are quick and efficient and it's clear that despite having a robust menu and being quite busy they've got an excellent system going to make sure fresh pastries are coming out reasonably fast. The interior is more industrial and small and definitely more of a grab and go, or sit down for a quick few bites type of vibe. My friend and i got a few things to try, but the standouts were the mulberry danish, and the kimchi bacon Danish. All the pastries were crisp, with many buttery layers and were clearly well made but these two had the most flavor and stood out as offerings that are a bit more unique compared to other bakeries in the city. We also tried the black sesame kouign amann, which was more reminiscent of a morning bun type pastry, and the cubano and the ham and cheese croissants, which were good but just lacking a little in flavor. Overall, Juniper has excellent pastries, and I'll definitely be sure to grab a plain croissant next time to try it out as well - some pastries pack a bit more flavor than others but given how quickly the like moves I'll definitely be back again to try some of their othering offerings soon!

I usually don't drink/like coffee, but the guava cold brew sounded so interesting I couldn't resist. The fruity jasmine tea somehow paired so well with the coffee and made it a nice refreshing drink. I was also lucky enough to try the matcha crepe cake, which I believe they get from Lady M. It had really nice layers and was light, but unfortunately it was a little too sweet for me. Overall a very solid matcha/coffee option in SF. They have a beautiful interior too, perfect for catching up with friends. Servers were sweet as well!

Purtea recently opened and is a great local cafe for drinks and food. They are located on Ocean Ave and the cafe is cozy and great for dining at. The workers are friendly and quick with completing your order. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich, Durian Latte, and Lady Luck (Thai Green Tea). The Fried Chicken Sandwich was delicious! The fried chicken is crispy and made for a great bite. The portions are also big, so this is definitely a fulfilling meal. I was looking for something with caffeine, so I went with the Durian Latte, which was tasty and satisfied my caffeine fix. You can also taste the Durian chunks in the drink! The Thai Green Tea was a good drink to sip on as well. Overall, Purtea is a great local spot option for drinks and food. They also host a cozy ambience for guests.
