    Milk tea with boba
    Sydni K.

    I got the regular milk tea with boba 50% sweet, and this hit the spot! I liked how the milk and sugar wasn't overpowering the tea flavor, and the boba was the perfect chewy texture. They only have one size for their drinks, which was equivalent to a large at most other boba shops I've been. Parking in the area is a little challenging, as it's mainly street parking. We were lucky enough to get a stall right in front of the store. We placed an online order and hopped out of the car to pick it up.

    Sunright after dinner always HITS! No matter what location I go to, I can also trust that my drink will taste the same. The self-order kiosks make it very convenient to order. The drinks came out in less than 10 minutes. Mango Milk Tea w/ Agar Boba, 5/5: After the topping, the total came down to $6.75. 50% sweetness was perfect and the mango flavor was so delicious. No other boba place has a drink like this, so I'm always coming back here!

    This place is almost never busy. You can go right in and out. The inside is very spacious, there are benches inside but not really great for hanging around. The service is usually pretty quick and the drinks are always made well. My family and I like to stop by here after having lunch in Pasadena! 10/10 would recommend this location

    Been here a few times whenever I'm in the Pasadena area and this place never disappoints. I've had multiple things and their options are so good, the boba bouncy not hard, and you can adjust sweetness as needed. You order on a screen so you really don't have much interaction with staff. Not a place to sit and hang around but doesn't bother me as it's right in the middle of Colorado street so taking it to walk around is very enjoyable

    I normally get a matcha whenever I get boba, but this place had a popular Oreo Brûlée so I tried it. It's very good. Service is quick, and you order at a kiosk.

    I've been able to enjoy coming here a few times when visiting Old Town Pasadena. It's funny how it integrates so well at times you can easily slip by. But similar to a wizard's tent in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the insides are much bigger than the exterior showcases. Inside, the height of the ceilings give an openness to the space. Indeed, no tables or chairs are inside. Instead, a long bench runs from one end of the wall to the counter. Across it are the touchscreens utilized for ordering your drinks. As the menu isn't massive in selections it means you can enjoy the pretty pictures and possible fruity drinks associated with them. In fact, the whole color scheme of this place falls in line with the sun: yellows and oranges. The drinks also run the gamut of sweetness. When ordering a drink it gives you the option of how sweet you want it to be. If you like very sweet drinks keep it at 100%. If you like yours somewhat sweet, the 50%-75% is probably best. If you like it sweet, but not too sweet than 25% is your jam. I'm a big fan of mango and they use a sweet puree style for their slushes and though their mango jasmine tea might not have mango bits, at 100% you are tasting the sweetest mango there ever was slapping you across the mouth with intensity. There are several different places to grab drinks and walk around Colorado Blvd in Old Town but I think few are quite as easy and affordable than Sunright Tea Studio. So grab yourself a sweet tea, fall into the California sunset, and enjoy your stroll through Old Town.

    Easy to order and wide selection of tea, boba, smoothies. Everyone will have something to choose from.

    Sunright is a MUST after dinner. Especially after we eat something hot or it's a hot day.

    What's up: We were at the Apple Store nearby and wanted to grab some boba. We were walking and saw that Sunright was nearby and decided to go there. Parking: We parked at the De Lacey parking structure. It's $1 for the first 2 hours but they also have free EV charging if you are able to grab a spot. Environment: The place was bright and well lit. You can place your order at the self serve kiosks located on the right wall; the menu is displayed overhead. When ready, pick up your drinks at the main counter; they will call your name. There's also a small corner area for merch. Along the left wall, there's a sitting area. What was ordered: - Matcha Oolong Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Boba (extremely watered down. The only taste was from the boba) Yay/Nay/Meh: Meh. I was disappointed. The drink didn't have much flavor and the only saving grace was the boba. My brother got a coffee and his tasted great. I think I was just unlucky. Credit cards and Apple Pay accepted.

    We make a trip to old town Pasadena to grab drinks from Sunright Tea and Food from Mama Lu's Dumpling House. Parking is a pain there, but once you get parking figured out then it is easy. We walk along Colorado street and follow the shop. The place was filled with people waiting for drinks. Thank goodness for online orders, we placed ours. The shop was clean and welcoming, but not one staff member to be seen. OMG, I did not see the sign ring for service. HAHAHA! I dinged and then someone came out from the back. I told them my order and pow he was back with it. Their signature fruit tea is made with four seasons tea, freshly squeezed orange juice, passionfruit and served with lemon & orange slices was so so good.

    Panda milk tea
    Siao Z.

    Very amazing drink! Boba not comparable to wushiiland but still amazing! One of my top list for boba places. The panda milk tea is delicious. I had it half sugar and everything was perfect. Would definitely buy again when I'm not on a diet.

    Cheese foam jasmine green tea, mango jasmine green tea.

    Is it a good place to study?

    No indoor seating to casually study from. I would say its a great place to grab a quick drink and head over to a local library or park nearby! Hope this helps.

    Are you guys on any delivery apps?

    Hi John, yes we are currently on Uber Eats and will soon be on DoorDash. We also do not mark up prices for delivery, they are the same as in store. You can also order online for quick in-store pickup at the link below. Thanks!… 

    Can we bring our own tumblers/cups?

    Unfortunately due to Covid we are not able to accept outside cups or containers at this time, thank you for your understanding.

    I've seen this business on my socials & had it saved for a potential visit. It was everything I…read moreexpected it to be. I drove all the way from Long Beach to visit my discount hobby mechanic Bobby; and yes it was worth the one hour drive. One because I had an amazing ice cream and two; I by passed a tune up at Fletcher Jones Toyota of Carson who for some reason didn't honor the previous warranty, because "Fletcher-Jones is now the new owner of the Carson location." In a sense, I am thankful for the grifting, because it lead me here. If you're indecisive Kinrose Creamery does offer samples. I ended up ordering two scoops of Saffron Pistachio Rose, & Orange Flower Pistachio. I definitely savored this unique frozen dessert in this unforgivable heat. Loved my choices and I will be coming back through the summer. The customer service is excellent, the establishment is very clean, & nicely decorated as well. It appears they have local art on the walls, and it's also well air conditioned. Additional information: parking is a bit of a hassle in this area. I ended up paying for a one day parking pass, which is ten bucks and having to walk about two blocks. I did not mind the short stroll but do recommend to look up neighboring businesses to get the best out of the one day pass. There's a pottery painting workshop near by, a spa, furniture shops, and also an amazing tea place adjacently across the street.

I noticed they had a lot of great flavors and some popular ones I'm excited to try next go round. The place is small with few seats inside but they had additional seating outside. Staff were friendly and I loved the vibe. You do have to pay for parking, but there's aplenty of spaces to park. Cannot wait to be in Pasadena again to try this place again.

Not only was the flavor amazing (which made me want to return and try them all) but the presentation was definitely instagram worthy.

    A Little Cheat Night Never Hurt Nobody!…read more After eating the juiciest chicken ever at Loli Farms, I've been eyeing this dessert spot for a while, and luckily it was only 1.6 miles away. So obviously... dessert was happening. Perfect excuse for a little cheat-night treat! Parking Hack: Don't pay $5 for parking! We parked about 7 minutes away in a parking structure for only $1 for 2 hours. After all the delicious food I inhaled, I definitely didn't mind getting a little extra cardio in. Pasadena parking is definitely doing the most, so parking structure it was! Mango Melon Shaved Ice -- $8.50 | 7.8/10 Mango-flavored shaved ice topped with melon balls and served with a side of milk drizzle. The shaved ice itself was SO soft and fluffy, and the milk drizzle gave it just the right amount of sweetness. The only thing was... I really couldn't taste much mango in the shaved ice. It was pretty subtle, so I wouldn't say this one completely blew me away, but it was still a refreshing treat on a hot summer night. Definitely not the best I've had, but certainly not the worst! Injeolmi Shaved Ice -- $7.50 | 7.7/10 Milk-flavored shaved ice topped with mochi, layers of Injeolmi powder, and more milk drizzle. This was actually our first time trying Injeolmi, so we were curious! The combination of the soft shaved ice, milk drizzle, and nutty Injeolmi powder was really good and made for a fun flavor combination. My only complaint? THE MOCHI. They were soooo tiny! I wanted that satisfying chewy squish, but these little guys basically tasted like mini boba that disappeared the second I bit into them. The shaved ice itself was perfectly soft and honestly the star of both desserts. Inside, there aren't a ton of tables, but luckily we snagged one right when we walked in. And let me tell you... this place had a constant flow of customers the entire hour we were there! People were coming in and out left and right, with only one ordering machine, so expect a little patience if it gets busy. Overall, both shaved ices were pretty decent and made for the perfect little "I already ate too much but I'm still getting dessert" moment. Definitely a nice way to break the diet after our chicken feast! Would I come back? Absolutely, especially to try some of their other shaved ice flavors. Happy desserts!

The Egg Heaven was honestly one of the best egg sandwiches I've ever had. The flavors were light but still incredibly satisfying. The bread was perfectly toasted, and the egg salad was seasoned so well that every bite was delicious. It was also definitely worth the price, it came with three pieces, which was more than enough to share between two people. The Iced Honeycomb Latte was just as good. It doesn't come sweetened at first, but as the dalgona slowly melts into the coffee, it adds the perfect amount of sweetness. If you prefer your coffee less sweet, you can always ask for less dalgona. On top of the great food and drinks, the staff was incredibly friendly.

They seem to share the storefront with some other businesses, but there were some empty spaces. They had some limited high tops along the front window and one table. However it was really hot where we were sitting for an ice cream shop. Noah helped us with our order and she was super friendly. She was very gracious about offering us samples and telling us about the ice cream shop. So Wanderlust is inspired by global flavors, so you'll see unique flavors here. My cousin and I were pretty full from dinner so we decided to get the Tasting Trio ($6.50). We were told that these would be smaller scoops of each but you get to enjoy the variety, which was perfect for us. We opted for the Kinder, Ube Malted Crunch, and Japanese Neapolitan. This in itself was a nice mix of matcha, Sakura or Japanese cherry blossoms, and Hokkaido milk. All of the flavors were mild and not too sweet. I think my favorite was the Japanese Neapolitan. To be honest I was less excited by my experience with the Irvine location, but the flavors I tried here were much better. My cousin and I had a nice treat. It would have been a tad more enjoyable if it wasn't so hot here.
