I got thirsty while grocery shopping and thought I would give Royaltea a try. The line was super short, and the ordering process was really fast. Service was nice and everyone was fairly friendly. I got the blended fresh taro with pudding, no modifications. It was rather grainy. Which fresh taro definitely can be, but I'm still skeptical if it's really fresh taro. The egg pudding was rather bland (I usually want to eat a whole cup of pudding at other places and alone it usually has its own flavor). I got the same drink for my mom and she loved hers so it might have been a me or my cup situation. I'm interested in their other fresh blended drinks, I'd definitely go back to try them, but next time I think I'll opt for the brown sugar boba. read more

Gonna miss the royaltea in Beaverton when it closes. Came here and got my usual the super-C. I got 125% sugar and it tasted more milder than I imagine. Also the color was lighter and more yellow so that was interesting. Overall still good but the portland location is so far now. read more

A reliable spot for good, consistent milk tea. I always make it a point to come here when I'm picking up groceries at SF market. At a lot of boba shops I find the drinks can be hit or miss as I'll be given something oversteeped or watered down every so often, but I've never had those issues here. Staff is friendly enough and keeps the place looking clean. Overall, no complaints! read more

I appreciate the consistency, topping choices and tea flavor. While they won't split milk-tea or fruit-tea, they're split cup blended cold options are perfect for my kids. Ordering is easy and they make the drinks pretty fast considering the steady stream of customers. read more

Conveniently built into the Shun Fat Market. A small shop with a couple seats but nothing aesthetically to look at, dingy for lack of cleaning and upkeep management. Service was so-so. When asking for recommendations the response was a plain faced IDK :/ Be sure to ask for half sweet for the drink to be somewhat balanced otherwise the flavors will get lost. read more

Royaltea Portland - Brown sugar boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

For the final boba of my recent trip to Portland, I chose to go to Royaltea and I'm glad I did. This turned out to be the best drink of the 3 places I went. I found the store a bit hard to find, but that was probably my own fault. Since it's located right next to the entrance of the SF Supermarket Mall, I thought it was inside the mall instead of being on the outside. Anyways, after walking around a bit, I found the real entrance and got one drink. Royal King (Original Milk Tea), 50% Sweet w/ Boba ($6.50) - As soon as I had my first sip, I knew this was going to be a 5. They use a pre-brewed black tea from a tea dispenser, but the tea is quite strong in this drink. It definitely felt and tasted quite a bit more concentrated in tea flavor vs. a lot of other places. Half sweet was nice - it's a good sweetness level that didn't overwhelm the tea. The boba had a great soft chew - maybe just a bit overcooked, but not by much. I thought it would get harder while sitting in the cold drink, but the texture barely budged. Additionally, the boba is soaked in brown sugar, which helps sweeten the drink further. The drinks at Royaltea are not perfect, but way better than most other places. If they opened a shop near me, I would definitely be a regular. read more

Hands down our favorite boba place. Their egg creme brulee is THE BEST TOPPING IN THE WORLD and we can't find it anywhere else!! Not even the Beaverton location has it; only this branch. It does make your milk tea sweeter though if you mix it instead of sip it, so lessen your sweetness level accordingly. They use a torch to toast the top, and I ask for it extra toasted cuz I love the roasty flavor. Their boba is also the best we've found; always fresh and great texture and not too sweet. They make a new batch every 2 hours. They recently started offering popcorn chicken, but DON'T BUY IT. It's dry and the pieces are tiny, like the size of a peanut m&m, so you're basically only getting fried breading with no chicken. I wish I took a photo cuz it was crazy. They also offer other snacks but I haven't tried them. read more

Royaltea Portland - Royal King milk tea with boba and egg creme brulee topping. THE BEST!! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I remember trying royaltea when they first opened and found it to be too sweet but it was typical coming from any bubble tea shop that just opened. I hadn't been back for a while until recently. I have tried the following drinks and I really do give them a solid 5! - red dragon strawberry (dragonfruit when it's in season) with aloe vera at 100% sweet - roasted oolong brewed tea with boba at 100% sweet - jasmine green tea brewed tea with grass jelly at 100% - taro milk tea with egg pudding at 100% (has real taro!!) It's baffling to me because I always get my drinks at 30% sweet due to the dominant taste of sugar vs tea and I did not have that problem here. I enjoy their aloe vera because it gives it a good crisp and doesn't taste so jello like. Their boba is so soft and perfect amount of honey ratio. The grass jelly really compliments the brewed tea to enhance that tea taste if you aren't big on sweetness. And the taro milk tea with REAL taro??? That's crazy because the only place I've gotten that is in LA. Real taro is game changer. The service is good and we were greeted right away without feeling rushed to order when we were picking from the menu. read more

I've been here at least 3 times and what I enjoy about it is that the boba is consistent. I don't love that they rely on things like non dairy creamer, but that seems to be the standard at most places. The rating is for the texture and taste of the boba, which is perfectly cooked and doesn't have the overly chewy taste when you can tell it's been sitting in water all day. Plus, their staff is friendly and the cost is what I expect for boba. I do wish they were able to make more modifications for their drinks, but that can be hard anywhere. I'm glad they have non dairy/vegan options and hope we can find more in the future! (Like a vegan milk tea would be super rad) read more

Royaltea Portland - From left to right: roasted oolong milk tea with jelly, oolong tea with cheese foam, and roasted oolong milk tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I've never really tried Royaltea so this chain was a very new experience for me. There are many milk tea options. My favorite is the taro milk tea. At standard sugar and ice levels it is not that sweet and has an excellent taro fragrance. If milk tea is not your jam then you might consider the Oolong tea with some boba. This combo is refreshing, with just that tad bit of caffeine to get you going and some boba for chewy goodness. I wish they had tea options with fruit flavors, like mango green tea. But their fruit tea options replace the need for flavors and make up a large part of the appeal here. You have the best of both worlds: milk tea and fruit based teas. In short, it's worth visiting Royal and seeing for yourself if it is a one time thing or a place you will continue to visit. read more

I found this place while going to the Asian supermarket on 82nd ave and this was the first boba place I hit up when I moved to Portland. This place did not disappoint! I spent a year in North Carolina after I left home in Hawaii and have been on a boba deficiency which made me sad. It's hard to find brown sugar milk around here (just the milk, not the tea) and when I saw the brown sugar milk on their menu I was stoked! There is a drink here called boba bomb brulee which has the brown sugar milk, boba, pudding and a sugar cap that gets toasted. So good! The boba balls here are amazing. They are very fresh and are still warm when you get your drink. If you have tried boba balls and didn't like the texture, you should try the boba here. They are very soft and tasty. The workers here are always super sweet and the shop is clean. I always stop by when I'm passing through 82nd ave read more

After this place was my favorite for its drinks for years I now have to put in this low score review for the horrible customer service. They made my drink wrong when I told them it's wrong she argued with me and offered to remake the drink with no boba since now they were out of it at discount?!!!! Like what!!!! No thank you. I was a regular here and I did not like that they did not take that in consideration. There are many other boba locations around save your self a bad experience and go to another location. My advice. I left the drink and Im out the $7 but most of all they lost me as a customer. read more

Wow!! I just realized it was my friends' first boba run after being a married couple!! How cute :) My friends had just gotten married the night before in Hood River. The Bridal Party helped them transport their wedding decor and gifts back to the Portland area. The Bride wanted boba!! Yayyyy!! You don't have to convince me!! So we all made a quick boba run before we said our goodbyes. Royaltea is a new boba spot in the area so The Bride wanted to check it out. The Bride gets what the Bride wants!! Royaltea is located in the plaza with SF Supermarket, aka Sieu Thi Thuan Phat. It is next door to the right. It was easy to find for us since they had a large 40% off grand opening special sign. The Groom was kind enough to treat us all for our love... and slave labor. If they ever come across this review, I hope they forgive me for my bad jokes. I really can't help it. Their menu is pretty standard with brewed teas, fruit teas, milk teas, matcha, blended and coffee options. There was something for everyone. Medium drinks ranged from $3.75-4.50. Large drinks ranged from $4.25-5.50. The 40% off only applied to large drinks so I hadddd to get a large :) I had their Royal Queen, which is their special take on the Jasmine Milk Tea, with egg pudding and adjusted it to a 75% sweet. My drink was perfect!! Everyone else enjoyed their selections as well!! I would definitely consider coming back to Royaltea if I am ever back in the Portland-area visiting my friends. If the business ever considers opening a location in California I would be a regular. read more

This place gives me hella southern cali vibes in a good way. Located right next to sf market and a pho restaurant, it's definitely one of those places to hit up as you make your rounds in the plaza. No seating was available inside because of covid but they have social distance markers on the floor that were kind of confusingly placed. Very few people actually followed the markers because of that but it was spacious enough inside that people were standing far apart. I ordered the osmanthus milk tea, 50% sweetness, regular ice, with brown sugar boba. The tea flavor really shined through and they didn't go heavy on the milk which is perfect for my taste. Normally I feel so full after drinking milk tea but this was refreshing and light. I really wanted to try the fresh taro milk tea but they're currently out due to covid and shipping issues. Will definitely come back once that's available. read more

Found my goto spot for Oolong tea/milk tea! Rich in flavor and very smooth. Overall good affordable pricing and plenty flavors and toppings. Ample parking inside the old Fred Meyer on 92nd and it's next to SF market. Can see their menu expanding if they want to be competitive with Ding Tea or other bubble tea places in Portland. Pricing is competitive and a wee bit cheaper than Ding Tea. They ran out of aloe vera jelly and taro (really wanted fresh taro milk tea). They did explain it'll take several weeks for delivery to come. read more

Royaltea has the best taro boba in all the land. They use real taro and they even add taro chunks whereas everywhere else usually uses powder. They always ask if you're ok with the chunks and it's like OF COURSE, I'm not at m-fing Jamba juice. The more chunks the better. Some are even too big for the straw which is a big plus for me. I am a fast drinker and will usually finish before driving home, so any kind of leftovers to fish out are much appreciated. read more

Where do I even start? The only thing saving them from a 1 star review is their brown sugar pearl. I came here during their soft opening, the weekend of 7/25th. I tried the Royal King (classic milk tea) with brown sugar pearls, Roasted oolong milk tea with cream cheese and Lychee oolong tea. I liked how the brown sugar pearls were warm and chewy! The cream cheese was average, not bad but not to spectacular either. There wasn't any additional lychee flavor in the lychee oolong tea besides the lychee pieces at the bottom. The tea flavors in all of the drinks were not strong at all. I thought it may have been because it's a soft opening and the employees were still getting used to the measurements. Fast forward to a week later, they had their grand opening with a 2 day special of 40% off large size milk teas, not including topping. I thought it was a great opportunity to give them a chance redeem themselves to convince me to be their frequent customer. This time i still ordered the Royal King (classic milk tea) with brown sugar pearls, a Royal Queen (jasmine milk tea) and a Osmathus oolong milk tea with no ice. I could not believe my eyes when I saw my drinks. The Osmathus oolong milk tea with no ice was 1/5th empty!!! I showed them the drink and asked if this is really how the drink should be. The lady responded "yes, this is the one with no ice". BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. The only reason why I ordered the drink with no ice was to prevent the drink from getting diluted for the next day. I've ordered drinks without ice at other bubble tea places before and never had them give me a partly empty cup. Besides this disappointment, the tea flavors were not strong in any of the drinks for a second time. Unless I hear about better experiences and improvements, this place that just opened has lost me as a customer forever. For those of you who would like to give this place a try, be sure you're okay with what you order because all purchases are final, you will not get a refund or exchange. read more

Today was their grand opening and their service was quite fast for the amount of people that showed up. The store interior looks like it would be a really comfortable place to hang out if indoor seating was available, but there was one table in the back that looked really messy and acted like a storage table for their personal food and drinks. They should clean that part up and not make that table full of stuff visible in the shop. Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk (75% sugar): This one was really good but I feel like it would have been better with 100% sugar because I tasted more milk than brown sugar flavor. The bubbles were also slightly overcooked so it was soft and not as chewy as I'd like. Fresh Taro Milk tea (50% sugar, less ice): I really liked this drink! The taro chunks at the bottom tasted good and only having 50% sugar was perfect for me, so it wasn't too sweet. The drink itself had a good flavor and it tasted like black tea. I would order this one again. Royal Fruit Tea: I added egg pudding to this one and the drink had a nice fruity flavor to it. I like how this drink had real fruit in it since other tea shops that sell their "top fruit teas" don't add real fruit in their drink. This drink had some apples, watermelon, strawberry, and orange slices. I added less sugar and ice and the sweetness level was perfect for me! I would definitely come back to this shop and try their other fruit teas and a matcha drink. It's a nice place to get some bubble tea if you're in the area! read more

I'm glad that Portland has some great boba places! I come from SoCal and when you get boba tea drinks from the right areas, you get used to that delicious taste. I ordered a Wintermelon Tea and Royaltea Portland delivered! I enjoyed the drink throughout and it was great that they also have you the option for how sweet you'd like the drink. Due to COVID-19, you must have a mask on and also there will be signs on how to enter etc. The staff were really nice and we didn't have long to wait for our drinks. There's definitely ample parking as this is next to an Asian marketplace. Although I only tried the Wintermelon Tea, I still this place is something to try while in the area as I had a great experience here. read more

I think they are currently having a Soft-Opening! I was at SF Supermarket, and I walked to see if they were open and luckily, I saw that their door was open, so I decided to check them out! They had a whole bunch of items on their menu, such as Brown Sugar Fresh Milk, Fresh Fruit Tea, Matcha and many more drinks. All drinks were standard price - not too expensive nor not too cheap. Even though, it is a soft-opening, their employees were super kind and well trained! My drinks came out super quick too! I ordered the Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk with Cream Cheese and a Royal Fruit Tea! - Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk with Cream Cheese : First off, mix your drink or it's just going to taste like milk! It was pretty standard for a Brown Sugar Milk drink. It had all the elements. BUT, I am so glad you can adjust your sweetness on this drink! I ordered 75% and it was still a little too sweet for me! The drink itself was rich and smooth. The Cream Cheese tastes like cheesecake, like it's soo good. It has such a nice flavor and it made my drink more creamy and have a more deep rich flavor. It works super great with the Brown Sugar, because it cuts down some of the sweetness! - Royal Fruit Tea : Super refreshing! It contains Passionfruit, Kiwi, Watermelon, Strawberries, Apples and Oranges. If you ever had Yifang's Fruit Tea, it is super similar. I'm so thankful that I have a place to get fruit tea that isn't all the way in Beaverton. The tea flavor is super light though, and honestly it tastes like juice. All the fruits and flavors work super well together - no fruit was more powerful then the other. - Fresh Taro Milk Tea : MAKE SURE TO MIX BEFORE YOU TAKE A SIP. You can definitely taste the freshness of the taro and you get bits of taro throughout your drink. Super refreshing and a lot different then most Taro Milk Tea's. You can also taste the tea! Not as creamy tho. - Royal King Milk Tea : Personally my favorite! Super good, when I added Cheese Foam and Brown Sugar Boba - it made it taste like a Brown Sugar Milk Tea. It was super good, and I think that's what my go-to order might be. I definitely thought 75% was too sweet for me. The boba always comes out warm and melts my ice super fast - so i recommend getting more ice or getting a larger size. read more

Came in on a slow Wednesday afternoon and ordered two classic milk teas (Royal King) with boba. After I got my drinks, I tried one and I didn't taste any tea flavor. I thought it was odd but my boyfriend thought it tasted good. I wasn't expecting to write a review; however, after coming across their Yelp page, it looks like the employees gave me two brown sugar boba milk drinks instead of the two classics I ordered? I'm not sure if their milk teas just have brown sugar syrup on the side, though. The drinks I ordered looked very similar to the other brown sugar boba picture reviews I've seen. I'll be sure to clarify with the cashier next time- maybe I didn't speak loud enough? On the other hand, the service was quick and the cashier was nice. Clean interior and cute decorations inside the store itself. They're located next to a supermarket so parking is easy to access right off of Foster Rd. read more
