Love the boba here. I know what to expect anytime I go to a sharetea. I love that the sweetness and ice can be customized. There is a great selection of drinks! And the boba is always more flavorful than other boba spots. read more

Sharetea - Peach mojito - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Excited this authentic Taiwanese milk tea chain opened here as they are popular in many parts of Asia. We went after lunch and there was a constant long line to the door. They have a lot of options to choose from, even some unique ones I haven't seen in other stores like the Okinawa or Hokkaido milk teas. You can also choose your sugar and ice level. Unfortunately, they ran out of the regular tapioca balls and I didn't want to wait another 30 mins for it so I settled for the mini tapioca. I got the classic black milk tea with mini tapioca and pudding. Tea was good and had a distinct milk tea taste. Pudding was surprisingly good, it was actually thick and had flavor, which I like. As we were sitting there, we saw the frustration of customers who had to wait more than 30 mins for their drinks. I think right now, their still training the trainees and don't have enough staff to produce out drinks fast enough. I hope in time, this problem will be fixed, but I'll be returning to try their creama and different varieties of drinks! read more

Hands down my favorite place to come and get boba. My go to drinks are the Hawaii Fruit Tea, Okinawa Pearl Milk Tea, Coffee Milk Tea, and Mango Passion Fruit Green Tea. Their drinks are on the sweeter side so I usually ask for less sugar, but other than that I have no complaints. They have a good variety of drinks to choose from and they'll fill up 1/4 to 1/3 of your cup with whichever topping you ask for. That's a lot of boba!! read more

Sharetea - Bar - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Although I'm not a bubble tea fan. Wallet is the only thing I watch out for. Yes, I also watch my figure. I'm done searching for a better place for Bubble Tea - Milk Tea - Cold Drink in Chinatown, after I have many wonderful experiences at Sharetea. I have been looking at this location from its infancy: the moment they took over this space from eCosway. I remember the day the contractors asked me to move my car while I was shopping at L P Trading next door, so they could hang the sign. I tilt my head to read the sign while leaning on its side. It didn't make sense. Then, Sharetea started to follow me on Instagram. That's how I learned about this wonderful business from Taiwan called 歇腳亭. It literally means "to unwind at a pavilion" in Chinese. Yes, I cherish every moment that I am at Sharetea sipping my Tea - Creama - Hot Tea - Cold Drink. I have tried each category. My favorites are Mango Creama, Winter Melon Iced Tea and High Mountain Hot Tea. My tummy didn't like "milk" with iced tea. I wish I could try everything on the menu. But for now, I'll stick with what I know. read more

Sharetea - Prep area. don't come too early as they are not prepared. Another sign of long wait. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sugar water. I thought I would give this "Fresh Milk" a shot, since most tapioca joints use milk powder in their milk teas. Not only was it way too sweet, but it lacked any taste of tea. The tea was probably so watered down that my drink became just sugar water... The service was not any better at all. Orders took way too long to be placed, and drinks took at least 30 minutes to be made. There were only a decent amount of people, not even close to a full house. The 3 workers they had in the tight space behind the counter making drinks looked as if they were lost and confused half the time, the other half they were completely relaxed as if there was no rush to fulfill the insane number of orders they had. I stood there for a while watching them take their sweet time, not a hint of worry for the customers who were slowly growing more and more impatient. Lastly, while the colors and decorations of the place makes it seem bright and lively, the white floors were a huge mistake. Dark, black smudges and shoeprints could be seen all over the floor, creating an unorganized and dirty type of atmosphere. Trash was also overflowing out of the bins. Not somewhere I would sit down comfortably and enjoy a drink with friends. With the opening of Sharetea at the same time as Class 502 (next to Kung Fu), I count a total of TEN tapioca shops in this plaza ALONE. Sharetea will have to step up their game immensely if it wants to survive the crazy competition. read more

Sharetea - Thai milk tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place is overhyped. That about sums it up... I will say, their standard milk tea is pretty good, very creamy and smooth, and their boba is cooked well and has a good amount of sweetness to it, but I tried their crema drinks, and did not like it at all... I like the balance of sweet and salty, and I think it's an innovative idea to have a frothy salted topping, but I didn't really like the flavor so much. I couldn't even finish the drink. I guess it just wasn't what I expected. I actually tried 2 different crema drinks thinking maybe I just didn't pick the right flavors. I got a fruity one (which wasn't very good because it was like salty peaches...) and then an chocolate one (which wasn't as bad, sort of reminded me of a Starbucks frappacino but more salty like the beach rather than sweet). They do give this cute little knife thing to cut and sip the drink. I also was a bit disappointed because I asked for boba in my drink, and they messed it up, and all I got was a "I'm sorry". -.- I will say the atmosphere is more hipster and there are more people at this place, and the pricing is a bit pricey... But normal depending on the drinks. If I go again, I'm sticking to just the milk tea. read more

Weekdays, this is my favorite milk tea place to come to. I love their fresh milk variety (fresh milk oohlong and fresh milk wintermelon are my favorites) and their boba balls are usually the perfect consistency too. Weekends, I'd probably go to the one in front of my place because the claustrophobia is real. Sometimes I can barely even hear my friends because of everyone talking and I definitely was not able to get any studying done. Their drinks are on the sweeter side so I usually get 50% sweetness and it's perfect. read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

I used to be regular customer here before Covid19, I had visted this location every Fri, Sat & Sun. Today I came to order a drink with Creama (salted cream on top), employee shaked the creama instead of leaving it on top of the drink which I never had it happened before. So I nicely ordered another same drink, other employee gave me an attitude when I only asked her not to shake the creama. I left $tip for the first transaction + paid again for another drink but her attitude was what I got in the end. I did not ask her to re-do my drink. I paid for another same drink. Plus, she is long time employee. I guess an owner is not around so she is just disrespectful. read more

Delicious and high quality. I grew up in Chinatown I know my drinks. They are also open late which is great. Their coffee creama and their taro are great Pierre the coffee crema is extremely unique and stands way above the other places. Another way they stand out is that they let you choose your sweetness level and milk and they use roasted brown sugar which makes things very personalized and flavorful Friendly staff. Nice boba. read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Walked in. They are advertising for the Chai tea with almond milk. I ordered that but they do not have it. I ordered my regular Thai tea with tapioca. I usually like the tea with out dairy, it's delicious, but they do don't that here. They didn't put as much ice as I would have preferred. Their Thai is really good though. I come here often for it, but it's my #3 spot for Thai tea. They have great spots to play games with many people. I like this place. I'll be back. read more

Sharetea - Thai Tea w tapioca - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came here late at night and was sad to hear that they were out of boba. :( Unfortunately this is what I was craving at this time of the night but I suppose it was reasonable given that it was pretty late into the night. The wintermelon tea was tasty, and the sizes they have here are huge. Service was decent, especially given the long line that was forming this late into the night. Overall pretty good, just disappointed there was no boba at the time even though there were still tons of people waiting in line. read more

The environment was so bad as there were several guys smoking in front of the shop when I got there. Then we got in and placed the order. The server was very impatient to us. I ordered matcha milk tea and said no ice and 30% sugar but there were still a lot of ice inside and it tasted very blend on milk tea while still sweet. Even worse than Kungfu tea. read more

Sharetea is a chain of bubble tea places that are all over the place - I've seen them in so many different big cities. This is the first one I've been to and I have to say the bubble tea is pretty good - they make the milk tea out of actual tea (you can choose the type) and they have a huge selection to choose from. You can even choose the level of sweetness (I did 80% and found it still too sweet). The 80% sweet original milk tea with boba was good - the boba was cooked perfectly and was really chewy. I enjoyed my cup and will definitely be back. The shop was clean and had comfortable seating and the service was fairly quick since no one was really around on a Sunday evening. I would like to try some of the other selections as well - the passionfruit green tea drink looked fantastic and so was the selection of hokkaido milk tea! Yum yum yum if you're a boba fan! read more

Sharetea - Original Milk Tea with Boba (80% sweetness level) - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Inside Dun Huan plaza by the entrance - easy parking - good variety and reasonable prices. We liked it - highly recommend milk teas. Their taro milk tea doesn't have fresh taro, so I opted for the special tea with 6 different toppings. Highly recommended. read more

Visited Sharetea in Chinatown for the first time and loved it. I ordered the coffee creama. It had a delicious strong coffee flavor with a light cream. There is a ton of seating making this an ideal meeting spot! Staff was okay. This is definitely a high volume location at. times. Will visit again! read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

I really like this place! It was a spur of the moment decision to stop by after checking out Kamalan bakery. I knew I wanted some boba after dinner, just wasn't sure where. This place is super trendy and assumingly popular in Taiwan, like 85 bakery is. There weren't too many people and ordering was fairly easy. The guy behind the counter was helpful and gave me his recommendations. I went with a milk tea w/tapioca and I like that this place gives you the option of modifying the sweetness/coldness. He asked me if I wanted to keep the sweetness/ice and I told him I wanted it less for both! My tea came out fast, and just the right amount of sweetness, more of a tea flavor and just the right temperature. Would definitely come back for some tea/boba, etc! read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sharetea is my new favorite drink house in Chinatown! The line is always crazy long, so try to get there as close to when they open if you can (11 am) to avoid the crowd. I've had 3 drinks here so far: 1. Okinawa pearl milk tea (made with roasted brown sugar, less ice) 2. Taro pearl milk tea (80% sugar, less ice) 3. Honey boba (regular) Out of these three drinks, the Okinawa pearl was my favorite. It has a... well, roasted/nutty aroma that is absolutely delicious. I didn't think it was too sweet, either. Perfect for me! I must say that I am obsessed with the boba pearls here. Perfectly "QQ" and SO yummy! Can't wait to go back and try the Happy Family drink and Classic Milk Tea! PS Also had a great experience with service- another plus for this place in my book! read more

Sharetea - Come early so you don't have to wait forever for your drink! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place they have the best honey milk tea ever!! Add a little bit creamy and puddings to it and thanks me later!!!

This place is my new work spot. I have been coming every Saturday for the last month and really appreciate that they have a printer here in case I ever need it. The music is good. It does get noisy when the line is practically out the door but otherwise, this place is great. I don't think they serve food here but they never get mad at me for bringing outside food. I've been getting the happy family drink and am nervous to try other drinks as this one is so good! Price and portions are on point, workers are friendly and quick! read more

Sharetea - Getting work done with the UHCO crew - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

The Okinawa pearl milk tea, kiwi fruit tea with aiyu jelly, winter melon tea, and coffee creama are my favorites! If you don't like sugar drinks then ask for 50% sugar. Service here is friendly and efficient. This is one of the larger share teas I've been too compared to LA locations. The bathrooms are also quite clean. Make sure you figure out how much sugar you want ahead of time. Sometimes the workers will give attitude about remaking the drink to fit your taste. Instead, they'll just add more ice to down the sugar flavor. It's happened to me a few times here. read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

Sharetea is such a cute little place to get together, hangout, and drink boba. This place is also a cute little place to study as well! They have WiFi and a printer (probably have to pay for printer though). I like their drinks here as well. I'm not a big fan of there creme drinks but their other drinks are pretty good. I usually get cocoa lover with boba though because I'm a chocolate lover; however, I found a new drink that I love: winter melon with a spoon of matcha green tea powder with boba! It is so good that I think this will be my new go to drink here. Sharetea makes their boba just right; not to hard and not too chewy. The only thing that really bugged me this time and has never happened to me before is that the drinks that I got wasn't that cold. All the ice melted away or there wasn't much ice to begin with. So some parts of the drink was warm and not how I like my milk tea. Overall, I definitely like this place and would recommend it! read more

Sharetea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've never been to a boba shop where I had to throw away my drink. My sister and I ordered completely different things but both had the same reaction "THIS IS DISGUSTING WE HAVE TO THROW IT AWAY". She got the coffee milk tea and I got the peach mojito. We both enjoy these flavors greatly but the drinks were off. After a few sips we threw the drinks in the trash and went to TeaTop (our reliable boba shop). On top of that I didn't feel welcomed when I entered the store. The shop was empty and when I walked in all three employees stared at me instead of welcoming me. This was my first and will be my last experience at ShareTea. read more

By far best tapioca milk tea in Houston. This is my gozm-to place, and there are a lot of tapioca places out there in Houston Chinatown. This place usually has a long line but totally worth it. Link your phone number to your account and get points towards free drinks! Parking and traffic is annoying but the multi story parking garage behind Share tea is usually empty in the heights floors. read more

The one thing that I like about this place is that they're always changing up their menu and adding seasonal drinks or testing out new flavors. I saw a few new drinks online and wanted to give them a try. LEMON SMOOTHIE This drink was their july 4th drink. The jellies were red, white, and blue stars. The concept was cute, but there was nothing special about it. All it tasted was sweet and zesty. It was like you had an overly sweet lemonade. HONEY BERRY BOBA TEA- with strawberry flavored pearl This is one of those drinks that proves to you that presentation is key for business because it looked so cute and pretty on display, but in terms of flavor and how it looked in person it's lackluster. The drink was overly sweet, which I think is a standard now. I hate the fact that you have to choose your sugar level. How am I suppose to know the default is 300 scoops of sugar?! I couldn't drink it. I had to wait for the ice to water down the drink and it was so sour. I usually love sweet and sour drinks, but in this case, it was too sour and too sweet. Oh sharetea~ I wanted to like you so bad. I even found excuses to come and try you out, but I can't anymore. Bye~ read more

With the five million drink shops all concentrated in one plaza, you gotta make some pretty damn good tea to stay around, and I think Sharetea does that. I've always had really good experiences at this location as they seem slightly more efficient and smooth in their operations compared to other drink shops. They also have a good variety of drinks on their menu, so everyone should be able to find something they like, regardless if you drink tea or not. Overall drink quality is solid. I like to bounce around their menu and haven't found anything that's terrible or should be avoided. I wouldn't say the quality of tea they use is the best, but it's not the cheapest kind either. read more

I love milk tea so I had to check this place out after a friend recommended it to me! Their menu is fairly simple and categorized based on types of teas: fruit teas, milk teas, etc. What I like is that they have measurable sweetness levels from full regular sweet to 50% to unsweetened. I had the oolong milk tea with pearls (80% sweet) and my bf had the handmade taro with fresh milk and mini pearls. My oolong was amazing. It had that nutty, roasted taste and the boba was chewy, perfectly balanced in sweetness. Would definitely get again. The handmade taro was different from what we expected. First, we thought it was legit taro (the purple potato kind of like Ube) but it wasn't. It had the consistency of someone just having roughly blended the cooked root quickly as it was still chunky. The biggest mistake was adding the mini pearls in it, ruined the texture. It was almost too sweet. Definitely interesting but wouldn't recommend or get again. The size of the drinks plus the prices are what makes me wanna come back. I'm dying to try their roasted brown sugar next! Highly recommend their milk teas :) read more

Love Love love their milk tea. Its so sweet and milky. I would drive all the here for some good milk tea any day! Also their tapioca is sweet and chewy. Per COVID they have good regulations in place. No sitting as of now just pick up. read more

Called in to order 8 drinks because I was in a rush. They read the order back to me. It was correct. The drinks were ready when I came to pick it up. It was great..or so I thought. I didn't bother to think I needed to check my drinks before leaving. Upon getting to my destination, I realized I only got 7 drinks. I called them when I went to my car to head back to get the missing drink. They insisted they gave me 8 drinks. They said maybe they mislabeled. None of the drinks were labeled. I insisted I only got 7. Then they realized and said oh yea we only gave you 7. No I'm sorry. No I'll credit you for the drinks. Just simply oh we forgot to give you one. They assured me my drink will be ready when I get there to pick it up. It wasn't. read more

COFFEE CREAMA is my current fav (I used to get regular milk tea). It's sweet, a little bitter/caramely, & thick! It costs $6.22 here though w/ tapioca, 1/2 sweet (it's still sweet!), & less ice. Costs only $5.75 in Katy & they use the fivestars app over there. Some of the tapioca balls weren't as soft (mixed) & a lot were stuck together at the bottom. read more

I got the wintermelon mild tea with creama and pudding. Quick. Good service. Drink was yummy. I got 50% less sugar which was just right for me. I can't imagine how sweet 100% would be . Anyways, it was good but not mind blowing/best I had or anything like that. Then again, I am from NYC so my standards are quite high. It looks like they have wifi and good studying space here too. So I guess if you're a student, this can be a place to study in (headphones would definitely be needed). ***CREDIT ACCEPTED. read more

My standard bubble tea shop in Chinatown! Disclaimer: Sharetea is one of my favorite chains and bubble tea places in general, and this location doesn't disprove that. Lines can be a bit long on weekends but they churn out the drinks pretty quickly. There's a lot of seating and I've seen people studying here on multiple occasions, although it may be a bit loud for that on weekends. One of the best things is that this location doesn't have a card minimum! Overall, my go-to place for bubble tea that has yet to go wrong. read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars solely based on my first impression, which was the SMELL as I walked in! An intoxicating, fresh aroma of teas! But of course, I like how spacious and clean it is. And you get your drink super fast. I've had the okinawa milk tea and the mango & passion fruit green tea, both very tasty. Personally, I liked the green tea more solely based on the fact that I gravitate toward the fruity stuff as opposed to the creamy/milky stuff. The tapioca is squishy and soft--just like it's supposed to be! I like that they have a system down for how to order, including the amount of sugar, and there are a lot of yummy sinker options! read more

found rusty metal wire In my boba scratched my throat causing bleeding and infection . I will be calling the health department

Came here around 3p and it wasn't busy so the drinks came out really fast! I got the QQ Happy Family Milk Tea and it was so good that I almost came back for another one later in the day! The milk tea isn't too sweet at all, even at regular sweetness. Definitely love Milk Tea if you're looking for that nostalgic Taiwanese taste because of the toppings -- red bean, tapioca, jelly and others as well! It was definitely the perfect bit of everything. My boyfriend got the Mango Ice Blend and as an avid mango lover he definitely says that Sharetea has one of the best mango slushes! Creamy with a scoop of ice cream, he says that the proportions are perfect. Definitely recommend stopping by here if you haven't yet! read more
