Gave it a second try because the owner reached out to me and guaranteed that they would take my feedback to heart. Well, definitely the drinks were done in a timely manner and there was no sick employee making our drinks. So that's good. We got a super fruit tea and a mango frosty. Overall it was ok. Nothing to brag about and we have had better of both drinks in San Leandro iTea to be specific. So that's something this location needs to improve on. I can't pinpoint what exactly is the cause of the difference though I get it made the same way in terms of level of sugar and ice. read more

It was hot Monday afternoon. I was traveling back from a road trip with some girlfriends and we were craving some boba and popcorn chicken. What a great find on Yelp. Tons of tea, coffee and fruit boba options. Totally fresh boba and refreshing drinks. The popcorn chicken was absolutely delicious along with an extra chicken wing order. Perfectly fried and seasoned. The chicken wings came with a nice creamy dipping sauce along with other standard sauces. Again, the weather was so hot, so the shop put out a table and chairs out in the back of The shop, since the front of the shop had no shade. They went above and beyond. Great customer service! The even came to check on us. A plus is that they have a nice and clean bathroom. read more

I've been coming to QTea since it opened, and I've never been disappointed. They have a variety of drink and snack options such as milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, popcorn chicken, and takoyaki. Service is fast and efficient; they also started take out ordering via text during COVID, which has been very helpful. The staff there are very friendly as well. The quality of their tea is fantastic, and you can adjust the level of sugar and ice to suit your tastes and needs. Fruit teas can be ordered with less caffeine as well. Snacks can also have their level of spiciness adjusted (i.e. mild, spicy, not spicy). I highly recommend QTea to anyone who likes milk tea! read more

We came in on Xmas day since we were craving some boba. This was the only shop we could find open in a 15 mile radius and wow were we happy. The shop itself is pretty quaint, with limited seating. However, the menu this place offers is probably one of the most comprehensive I've seen. I personally got the Hokkaido milk tea with mango pudding at 50% sugar and regular ice. This was one of the few times that I've asked for 50% sugar and actually gotten a drink that wasn't overly sweet. The pudding was fresh and soft, and overall the quality here was pretty solid. What really put them over the top was the popcorn chicken. We got a mild popcorn chicken with white meat and the portion size was HUGE. Each nugget was juicy and well seasoned, and not overly covered in batter. This easily could have been a meal on its own! read more

I ordered the almond green tea with almond pudding. What a disappointment. I could taste the almond in the drink. The only almond I could taste is the pudding and it was a really light almond flavor. The snacks are pretty good. Love how they have the option of dark or white meat for the popcorn chicken. The fry oysters are super good. If I do come back, it would be the snacks and not so much the drinks. read more

One of my favorite Boba tea spots in the area. Love their selection of fruit teas; mango and passion fruit are on my list. Roasted Oolong is really good too. read more

We have been coming here for years. By far, they have the best teas in the nearing areas. My husband and i always get the white peach milk tea and white peach regular tea and when i noticed another yelper mentioning that the peach tea wasn't good at all i felt compelled to write a review of my own. To set the record straight, there is no peach syrup or anything in that nature. It is an actual white peach tea which is then sweetened with sweetener or honey so yes the flavor is mild since It is just the tea, but none the less it is still great and unique in comparison to what other bobs shops offer (tea variety wise). The service here is also amazing and the main woman is always very kind. We love this place and go about twice a month! read more

Came here just to grab something quick to snap on since the bf and i had a wedding to attend and couldn't wait any longer to est. We grabbed an order of popcorn chicken (breast), sweet potato fries and fried shrimp. Popcorn chicken and sweet potato taste mediocre just as you find at any other boba spot. What got under my skin was the the price of the 5 MF'n pieces of fried shrimp you get for the price of $8.50. $8.50!!! If you ask me that is waay over priced. Therr was literally nothing special about the shrimp so why the high cost?! Anyways, not a place I myself would return to since I hardly come out to the Tri-Valley. I'm sure there are more spots to try in the area. read more

QTea - $8.50!! For 5 pcs of fried shrimp!!! WTF! Any other place this would at least $5. It was decent, but definitely not worth returning for. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Dublin, California

Owner was very sweet and kind, we called in advance to ask about their hours and although they were already closed for 4th of July she reserved enough boba for our order. Our Order came out fast and was very tasty and perfect for the summer heat. Food came out hot and fresh. Would recommend checking out this spot! read more

I stay in concord and every time I come out to Dublin I always need to pass by here. The basil popcorn chicken thigh soooo good and the taro milkshake so yummy! On yelp it says it's open at 12pm but they open earlier so that's a plus ! read more

QTea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Dublin, California

I've tried the Qtea back in Newark and was wondering if it was the same chain as the one in Dublin so I had to come check it out. I had the honey brown rice milk tea with boba and I do have to say it was pretty decent. You can definitely taste the brown rice flavor infused with the tea. I do like the option of choosing your own sugar and ice level so I went with 80% on both. Sweetness was just right, and the boba was still holding up even after a 10 minute car ride. It had a pretty good texture, nice and chewy and not hard at all. However, the drink didn't leave an overall impression on me. I heard that it switched over from an iTea the overall tea flavor seemed relatively familiar to me. You can never go wrong with their popcorn chicken, nicely seasoned and crispy, just little umami grenades exploding on your palette every time you pop one into your mouth. Although I got all white meat, the chicken was still juicy and not dry at all. Good tea spot overall if you ever need to satisfy your milk tea and boba craving. read more

Gotta support the local boba tea spot! Have been a fan of QTea for years since moving to Dublin. Between the quality of their drinks and food and the friendly service, I have never been disappointed coming in when I am craving boba! read more

Wonderful Boba place; the staff is super warm ; quick service and a lot of selection; The environment is great; confit read more

QTea is my favorite boba place in the tri-valley. You can't beat the Honey Brown Rice tea w/ agar boba (30/30). Also, I have yet to find anywhere else with popcorn chicken as good as here. Highly HIGHLY recommend swinging by for at least the popcorn chicken. Lastly the owner, Cindy, is the nicest person ever and always gives the best customer service. read more

QTea - THE BEST Spicy Dark Meat Popcorn Chicken - Bubble Tea Near Me - Dublin, California

If you are looking for one place for your bubble tea, I would highly recommend QTea. Cindy is so nice and always have a smile on her face. After trying a couple of boba places, I never went anywhere other than Qtea. My favorite is simple Jasmine milk tea with leeche jelly and boba, that Cindy makes to perfection every other day when I get there. The popcorn chicken is my next favorite item. Highly recommended. Thumbs up from the regular customer! read more

Service and food never disappoints. Best popcorn chicken I have ever tried. Every time I'm in the area, I have to stop and get the chicken.

They've been rude to me for no reason multiple times now, passive aggressive or barking at me when I literally did nothing and stood at the counter. I was a regular too. I thought it was odd at first, but when it happened again I realized they just don't value my business, so I'll be taking it elsewhere. read more

Poor ventilation. The entire place is filled with oily scent from the fryer, not pleasant to sit inside, and no outdoor seating. The chicken is good but tea are not so good, quite bitter and not much aroma. read more

Great friendly service. fantastic Thai milk tea. very enjoyable.

This my new favorite boba place. My favorite drink is the mango frosty with popping boba. My son loves the oreo shake with no tea. The watermelon frosty is also good. The popcorn chicken and fried calamari is very tasty and they give you a lot they're not stingy like t4. There customer service is great there always very friendly and remember the drinks that we like to order. read more

Best popcorn chicken in the area !! They have dark or white meat. Drinks are good too.

It's convenient to text in my order. It was a busy long weekend. I called at 11:50am to try my luck and see if anyone picking up my call. The owner was busy with the walk ins and told me to text in the order. Quick and the drinks were decent, comparable with the franchise itea. They put a big chuck of glass jelly in my jasmine green milk tea. The creama on oolong tea didn't look very smooth though. read more

This is my favorite Boba tea place in the Tri Valley area. Drinks are always on point and the succulent popcorn chicken is very delicious. Friendly and inviting customer service at this cafe is also a notch above the rest. read more

My daughter and I love this place. We come here at least once a week. The staff is so nice and helpful . They already know what we want to order when we come in. In addition to excellent service, the drinks and food are delicious. The chicken is tasty and crispy. Also, the boba is nice and soft. Definitely a great place to visit. read more

One of the original tea places in East Dublin. I've been coming here since they opened and definitely one of my go-tos. Cindy and family are great and always friendly. I recommend the grass jelly and the popcorn chicken is a must try. read more

QTea - Popcorn Chicken - Bubble Tea Near Me - Dublin, California

This is without question our FAVORITE boba shop in the area, and we're super picky with our milk tea. It's consistently well made, a perfect balance between tea (from actual tea leaves!) and creamer. The boba balls are soft, chewy, with the right amount of sweetness. The owners are super friendly and always greet us with a smile. They previously were part of the i-tea chain, but have since gone out on their own. Now with covid going on, they're open for takeout several days during the week. read more

New name with this business, but the same owner. The quality and prices are about the same or better from what I can tell. So, if you enjoy good quality boba and snacks, come check out the new menu and place. The owner and employees are very friendly. read more

Love the staff here. So above and beyond friendly. They treat us like family. My kids love coming here every week after chess.

My family and I are regulars at QTea. We stop in a couple times a week. My kids love visiting Cindy and Spenser (the owners) and their favorite tea is the Mango Fruit Tea and the Mango/Strawberry Fruit Tea with Mango popping boba. My go-to is the Jasmine Milk Tea with soy milk, and egg pudding and boba as toppings. Such a treat that probably isn't helping my waist line any! (Lol!) My husband likes to rotate between all the drinks on the menu, but one of his favorites is the winter melon milk tea. Really all of their drinks are delicious, flavorful, and made fresh. I've never tasted anything I didn't like. Also they have snacks, my kids love their chicken wings and my husband and I love the crispy chicken with extra spice. For those unaware, QTea was formerly known as iTea but the owners decided to start their own business instead of limiting themselves to a franchise. It's still the same owners and top quality service! Another tip, unless a menu item states "fresh milk" their milk tea creamer is dairy free. Much easier on the belly. Do yourself a favor and become regulars at QTea too. ;) read more

It's hard to differentiate between these boba places, but QTea is as good as any. I got a black tea milk tea -- a classic. 50% ice and 30% sweetness. It was exactly as ordered. Yum! My wife's lychee frosty was a little too sweet for 30%, so I'm deducting a star. But I'll still be back. read more

I regret trying this place..... What a waste of money. I got the matcha red bean smoothie & it was EXTREMELY Bitter.. I don't think there is any type of milk tea that is suppose to be bitter. Their drinks are priced very high so I had hoped I would get what I was paying for. Out of all honesty, I would have rather gotten quickly's. I absolutely HATE trying new boba places, this place is my final try. Will stick to my creme brulee milk tea at basil with a cup of. Should've took it as a warning sign when another yelper said same drinks, same owner, NEW NAME. Probably because they were doing so poorly they had to change their name. 1 star for the nice customer service I guess. read more

This is the old iTea, and they're just as good as before! They don't have different sizes anymore and some of the drink menu is slightly different (not a bad thing), but the quality, consistency, and service are still easily the best out of the boba places in the area. Plenty of parking and some seating, though if you come at peak times (weekend afternoons) then you may have a bit of a wait. read more

Super fast service. The staff is always friendly and receptive to your needs. I have been going here to get my basil popcorn chicken fix for oh so long . Crunch on the outside and moist inside with the right amount of spice to your liking. The order is enough to satiate your taste buds. This has been a family favorite and now a regular with coworkers! read more

This is the best boba place in town! The tea flavor is strong and there are a lot of customizations to drinks for those that are dairy-free, sensitive to caffeine, etc. The service is also very personable and you can tell that Cindy, the owner, is incredibly passionate about the business and providing great service. read more

Best milk tea spot with the best popcorn chicken. Go to spot! Great customer service as well!
