    Thai Green Milk Tea, Hokkaido Milk Tea
    Vivian T.

    I came here with my sister to try out the local boba shop! They have a wide variety of drinks as well as cake selections. As an avid Boba drinker I would recommend getting less sugar since the 100% is fairly sweet. Today when I went into the store they were also having a buy one get one free deal for select drinks on Thursdays!

    Tiramasu, Cold Earl gray with Tiramasu foam
    Callista O.

    This place popped up in my grubhub options today and I just had to try. I ordered a cold earl gray tea with tiramasu foam as well as a slice of their tiramasu cake. Both are really good and not too sweet, just right. The only negative for me is that the drink is not cold enough so I'll have to put it in the fridge for a little bit. But order arrived fast, no spills, the drink container is really cute and made of hard plastic (i think it's reusable). Will definitely order again and try other items in their menu.

    Came to this spot because I was craving boba and cake. Small cute shop! The drink I got was good and the slice of Oreo chocolate cake hit the spot. There's a good variety of drink options to choose from. Hokkaido milk tea with boba - I could have cut the sugar a tiny bit but flavor was on point. Boba was perfectly cooked as well! Oreo chocolate cake - perfect sweetness for me! Soft and fluffy. I devoured that piece and could have had more.

    Such a cute shop and all her drinks are Gram worthy to post!!! As well as being cute they are delicious. I am all about supporting small businesses. So come through and get you a fancy tea.. and hen in doubt pinkies out

    Outdoor seating area has about 6 seats. Indoor seating area is kinda small/narrow. Street parking. We got the cake balls - very rich however not overly sweet. They're all red velvet with different decorations/toppings. It comes in a set of 4 for $5. We also got 2 matcha lattes ($5 each) - not bad. Cozy little spot we ended up checking out while at the La Verne car show today 11/20/21.

    People who work there are super sweet, always work very quickly and will give you recommendations! Sometimes can be too sweet but I just found out you can adjust the sweetness if you ask.

    Cinnamon Milk Tea
    Ericka B.

    I believe this is one of the only few good food places open in Old Town La Verne, there's a small variety of drinks and desserts to select from. However, I believe it's too pricey. The boba deserves to be at least $4.50-5.00, NOT almost $7. The Cinnamon Milk Tea is pretty good though, it reminds me of an Auntie Anne's Cinnamon Pretzel. Yeah, there are plenty of cinnamon drinks out there like horchata, but this tastes like they literally blended the pretzel into the drink. All I wish is that they could give the option to choose what size, because I can never finish my boba drinks and end up wasting it. Last time I was here, I bought tiramisu but I felt like I was going to choke from the amount of cocoa powder on the top layer. That's probably just me LOL, but I would be down to go here again for sweet tooth craves if I ever visit Old Town La Verne.

    Green tea w/ honey and bunny butter cookie
    Britny C.

    So delicious! My family and I stopped in and ordered 2 green tea w/ honey and 1 almond milk tea w/boba... both very good perfect sweetness and flavor, The boba also tasted good. The cafe was cute and clean and the service was also wonderful. The case of small baked goods looked fresh and beautiful, We will definitely be returning customers!

    Potted Plant Milk Tea
    Daniele P.

    I've been here twice and the drinks are delicious. I ordered the succulent strawberry foam drink that had tasty jellies in it. It had buttery foam that was unique and flavorful. My son ordered a galaxy tea which was the best tea we've tried thus far. You can taste the peach and a fusion of other flavors. We also got the potted plant milk tea which made things convenient if you are vegan. Plus, they always have excellent customer service. We look forward to returning.

    Hot chocolate & Red Velvet Cake
    Lady O.

    Delicious red velvet cake. Moist and sweetened just enough. Beautiful art on the hot chocolate.

    Kitty W.

    Super cute! :-) I had the matcha raw chocolate cake, which was rich and flavorful without being too sweet. The portion sizes for all of the cake slices in the window were generous; definitely coming back soon to try other flavors!

    Disappointing Oreo Milk Shake

    Stopped in after having dinner in downtown, thought it would be good since all the photos online look appetizing. Wrong. I carefully watched as my Oreo milkshake was being made and was disappointed to see a cup full of ice and milk go into the blender and scoop of Oreo dust thrown in. What? That's it? By the time I made it to my car I already had watered down milk.

    Sea salt oreo cream cake!
    todd r.

    this cake was perfect to cap our night off. the cake was light and fluffy. we can't wait to come back and try the Boba and coffees! don't sleep on this place!

    I love the jellies at ToroTea. I think it tastes better than boba…read more The popcorn milk tea is a popular drink here, and I do think the buttery flavor is so interesting. But I think I prefer their teas. I like that the specialty ones include toppings already. Mulberry was a bit too sweet for me even though I got zero sugar. I prefer their roasted barley iced tea with osmanthus jelly. Drinks can be easily close to $10. Service is great! Queues can be long. Parking is easy. Bathroom available. Credit card/tap is accepted with no surcharge. I like to stop by when I'm in the area.

The drink is super smooth and creamy with really strong jasmine and oolong flavors. And the brown sugar mochi jelly??? Boba WHO? It's soft, chewy, and honestly so much better than boba. The best part is that you can even save your drink for the next day and the mochi jelly stays soft instead of getting hard like boba does. I cannot recommend this specific order enough. There's a reason Torotea has expanded so much! I'm not the biggest fan of the Diamond Bar location purely because of the line, so I'd recommend trying one of their other locations if you don't want to wait as long. You can also order online on weekdays to avoid the line, but there is a small online fee. Also shoutout to whoever designed their shops because they absolutely killed the boho vibes. Super cute inside and the perfect place to wait for your drink. There isn't much of a seating area to chat given the line and large volume of traffic. Overall, as I can't emphasize any further, JASMINE OOLING WITH MOCHI JELLY.

Parking is a bit interesting and it's a tight reverse, so be careful when exiting and entering. We came in, and the step by aroma of freshly brew tea encircled us. We didn't wait in line for too long, but it gave us enough time to decide on what to get. Their menu isn't huge, but an amount good enough not to get overwhelmed. When we arrived at the front of the line, the cashier automatically handed us samples of their summer tea offering. It was quite aromatic and refreshing. We didn't opt to get that, but I did order their Dong Ding Oolong Tea with boba. We waited for about five minutes before receiving our drinks. It's always nice to see their boba drinks come with a cup sleeve and string! When tasting my drink, you can taste the oolong perfectly and it's a subtle type of sweetness. Their boba is very chewy, but sweet, too. The workers here were kind and it was a very clean environment. Just like their tea, their shop is clean and to utter perfection. Their workers were trained well. I'd come back again for good tea!

I've been wanting to try Omomo in Irvine but never had the chance and was in this area, so I thought why not! I've heard good things. There was no line. Staff was friendly and patient answering my questions. I always like to see if boba shops have unique drinks that stores typically don't have and if not, usually go with the original milk tea. But the Magnolia tea caught my eye. I got the magnolia milk tea and the boba was fresh, soft, but with the right perfect amount of chew! The staff did tell me it's "very floral" and I was a bit worried because I'm not a big fan of floral drink, but honestly, it wasn't that floral. There was a pretty subtle hint of floral-ness, but I can't make the distinction of the "magnolia" flavor. It's similar to maybe camelia? The boba and tea definitely were more prominent. I appreciated that I can taste a stronger tea flavor though. Service was really fast! They are well staffed. I didn't get to do what I came for, but at least the drink did not disappoint! I would come back to try other drinks!
