A casual spot where you can easily grab boba. The avocado smoothie is delicious! Since it's a chain store, the atmosphere is pretty standard. I got it to go, so I can't really comment on the service. read more

I most likely would not return or recommend this boba shop given my standards on cleanliness. Every time I witnessed someone washing their hands, they would just use water and would put their hands in the actual blender to clean it out as well. Also, multiple employees were eating while they were making food. I gave three stars because with all that said the employees were friendly and the drink I chose, which was passionfruit was good. The person I came with God, an avocado drink, and they did not enjoy it. The avocados they use were old, but they were willing to remake her drink and the pineapple lemon, she got instead was better read more

My friend and I were heading home from the game and we have our traditional Milk Tea craving. Wanting to try a new spot, we opted for T4 on our way home. I haven't been to T4 in a long time, but I know their standard tea is Earl Grey. So I have my usual expectations for what I would want out of my drink. Earl Grey MT: As expected, it has the essence and flavor of earl grey. The grass jelly always brings its texture for me and I truly enjoyed this drink. Nothing special otherwise for me, just a solid tea. Overall, not a bad tea spot still to have a cool refreshing drink. read more

The boba was a bit hard, drink wasn't sweet enough. Maybe I came on a bad day? I usually like T4 but this location definitely isn't the best. read more

This is strictly for the customer service. I come here often. Usually service is good. Today they decided to leave my drinks and food sitting for 30 mins. I listened to every number after me get called. Finally went up and saw that my order was just sitting there. I asked and 2 of the girls decided to look at me like I was dumb. Then turned around and started to talk shit in chinese. I loudly told them I understand exactly what you guys are saying. They thought walking further toward the back I wouldn't hear them. One of the girls finally apologized but the guy continued to talk shit. "Look at her standing there like she a hot shot" If you mess up own up. Don't talk shit while the customer is still standing there and can fully understand the entire conversation all 3 of you were saying read more

The Basil Popcorn chicken is goated! My go to! The wife and I love this! Been getting the basil popcorn for years! Reasonable prices and a huge portion of popcorn chicken! Never tried the drinks which I've heard are amazing! read more

This is a good place if you're looking to hit your Boba fix and you're in the area. I don't think there's a lot of Boba spots in this general vicinity, so this is great. Parking is not too bad to find since it is located in a plaza. Prices are reasonable, and they do have snacks, which I love. I usually get the lobster bowl and the popcorn chicken. Service is okay--nothing spectacular, but nothing terrible either. The ambiance is pretty casual, I would say. Great for just grabbing something to go. read more

Green tea boba milk tea is my favorite drink here. Nice staff, i would come back. For drinks times to times.

My drink tasted really good, but I found a piece of a metal scrubber in the drink. It would be good if they were more careful and check their equipment before making drinks. read more

Great little baba shop. I love their basil popcorn chicken and the bubble waffle! The boba is nice and refreshing. Staff are friendly and helpful when asking questions. It's my neighborhood baba shop so I go often and is definitely worth a try when craving boba. read more

Food and drinks are always amazing. Calamari is well seasoned and boba is always a great idea

3.5 Parking is limited, front area is dirty and messy due to trash and homeless hanging around the area. There's a store and a Chinese food next to this location. I wanted milk tea and was around the area, it was good here. Had the jasmine milk tea 30% sweetness and 30% ice. Service was slow even though there was 3 people, they didn't greet or assisted people in the store so people were assuming we could only order from the machine, until one of the employee looked at me and asked if I was ready after waiting for the customer ahead of me that was working on the machine and was confused. I saw on their wall that they had crawfish which other locations did not have. I actually really like the taste of it here. It was like a Chinese sauté? Not Cajun and not overwhelming in flavor. I actually crave it. Would come back if I am in the area, but wishing it was in a better location. read more

Great food, the people there are really nice, the place is nice and quiet and has a lot of table space.

I used to come by here a lot in high school because I thought that they made the best popcorn chicken and oolong milk teas. It's been a while since I've had boba here but I got a large oolong milk tea with grass jelly. I felt like their grass jelly quality was downgraded compared to the last time I came by here. However, the oolong milk tea quality didn't change which was great! Parking in the plaza where T4 is directly at is tough so I never bother parking there. Instead, I park more towards the parking lot at Citi Bank because it's a lot more spacious and easier to get out. It's also a very short walk to T4 so I don't mind it. They now have kiosks which is cool. There's no place to sit down still. Being honest, this place is my next best boba spot if I don't want to drive to Berkeley so I am glad this place is still around! read more

T4 is so yummy I go here all the time they have such good customer service and great employee!And the stores decorations are so cool!

It was a nice warmer-than-usual weather in the East Bay and after hitting a couple of stores nearby, Mom and I decided a nice cold drink with boba would be a great way to quench a thirst and cool off at the same time. It's a pretty small place where social distancing could be a bit of a challenge, but it was enforced, nonetheless. Masks were mandated. Every customer who placed their order immediately stepped outside after to wait for their number to be called. We, of course, followed suit. Mom went for Thai iced tea with boba. I went for the wintermelon tea. There were only a couple of people ahead of us, so we got our drinks pretty quickly. VERDICT: can't speak about Mom's drink but mine was EXCELLENT. There's a place in SoCal who set the bar for my particular drink and T4's comes pretty close. I'm so glad to have finally found a place who makes it within my standards! Staff were great - I can see their efficiency while watching from outside. A great discovery. Would love to try their eats as well, so yes: I would go out of my way to stop by and score that drink again in the near future! read more

Not in the best plaza in the Richmond area tbh. My bf grew up near by and has seen the area change but the plaza remains as congested so def keep that in mind for parking. We came in, made our order on their iPad so there's no type of contact with the workers other than when they call your order out. Can't really comment on the customer service but the milk teas were real good! Unfortunately when I made my order I didn't realize you could choose a larger size so I went with their smaller one. I must have missed that option when I was making the order. Pretty average boba milk tea so I was pretty content with it! read more

Saw him make my drink with whole milk when I asked for almond. When my number was called I told him I need almond as I am allergic to whole milk. He kept telling me it is almond milk. I told him to ask the guy who actually made it. When he asked he felt embarrassed that the guy actually said he did put whole milk in it. I would think they take allergies seriously when I tell him I'm allergic to double check. The drink itself was re made, mediocre, bland, not great. Would not come back again. read more

I came here yesterday with the kiddo. She wanted to try boba but I knew she probably wouldn't want a milk tea. I searched yelp and came across this place. I liked the variety of teas available and decided on this location. Walking in, we were not greeted and the workers looked angry. I had read the customer service was lacking a bit, so it wasn't too off putting. However, like I said, we've never had the teas and didn't quite know how to start. So it would've been nice to be greeted and maybe asked if assistance could be provided. Babygirl ordered a small mango royal tea with pearls. I tried it. It was crazy sweet. Too sweet for me, but the little one loved it. She is ready to go back today. It's nice that you can customize the teas, so I could try here again with less sweetener added. They also had snacks available like fries and a lobster roll. read more

Prices are good. Overall good quality. Avocado smoothie with boba is my go-to. Went here because I specifically searched for "Basil popcorn chicken." It delivered. Fresh, hot, and tasty. I'll be back! read more

Parking lot is a hot mess during commute hours/after school hours (3-4pm was when I was there on a weekday). Place is pretty small and line can go to the door but it goes fast. FYI - I was not asked how much ice or the level of sweetness for my drink so if you do not mention it yourself you get it as is. I'm used to the cashier asking me if I want to modify my drink so it didn't occur to me until I was waiting for my drink. ALSO, he (cashier) didn't ask if I wanted pearl or jellies in my drink so I failed to get that in my drink too. For some reason I thought the drinks already come with the tapioca balls - it doesn't - you have to ask to add.. I love me some basil popcorn chicken but unfortunately when I got my order it didn't live up to the ones I had at other boba spots - I have had better. Aside from my order taking longer than I expected, the chicken was not as crispy and was a tad on the oily side. It wasn't as flavorful and I didn't have much basil in my order. Portion size was good though. The portion size and price were the only thing that's consistent with the other locations. read more

T4 - $2.95 wish I had pearls/jellies in my drink. I would modify this to 50% less sweet if I were to order again. Otherwise, quite refreshing! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Pablo, California

Overall: 7/10 Elegant Rose Royal Tea: 7.5/10 Apparently this is their signature drink. This tea reminded me of the Taiwanese restaurant I liked back in high school.

Great prices, great boba, and a big menu! Their customer service isn't the best... which is why I knocked down a point. But their drinks are why I keep coming back.. I remember when drinks used to be 4-5$ with boba.. the good times. Anyways, if you're around (it's really close to CCC campus too!) definitely come try it out. I think it's my favorite boba shop that's not that far of a drive. There's a lot of space to wait for your drinks, and they provide seats and two tables. They're comfortable plush seats too! They also added a kiosk which is great when you don't want to have that face-to-face interaction! read more

I placed an order on the phone for one large milk tea and one large earl grey milk tea. When i asked for the lady to repeat the order back to me, she said that i got two large milk teas. I corrected her and told her that i got one large EARL grey milk tea. she tells me that they're the same thing. At this point, i'm over it so i hang up and plan on telling her in person. When i get to the store to pick up, she says that I ordered two large milk teas. I told her no i got one earl grey. she tells me that they're the same thing since they're both black milk teas. I understand that... but one is earl grey?? I don't understand how they're working there and they don't even understand the difference between some of the teas. I knew there was no way that she was going to fix it because she had no comprehension of what the menu actually entails. I visit this store every time i'm in town with my little sister and this is the last time i'll be supporting them. Hire better and smarter people please!! read more

Great milk tea. Mediocre service. Staff doesn't make you feel welcome each time that I go.

This place was great wish i took pictures but I got Matcha milk tea, oreo smoothie and passion tea w/lychee Jelly all which were good. I came at a good time though no line which they usually have but there were like 6 ppl and they got everyones drinks pretty fast. read more

I came here with my mom the other day because we were in the area and craving boba. They were able to make our drinks super fast which is always good. However, the location is a bit sketchy and not the best. If you park in the front, it's sometimes hard to get out due to traffic. There is an area nearby where you can park, you just have to walk a bit. I got the French Pudding Milk Tea while my mom got the Avocado Smoothie with boba. We both thought that are drinks were okay, nothing extraordinary. I did have their popcorn chicken before and it was really good! I would probably come back here only if I was craving the popcorn chicken, but I would rather drive a bit further to get better boba. read more

Drinks and food here are extremely good! But I hate the area, No parking, A bunch of cracks heads walking around and sometimes it's a bit ghetto, I wish this place was in a better plaza read more

Review #220 - 2018 After spending a few hours out in the heat at Six Flags, I decided to take the kids out to grab some drinks to cool us down. We showed up around 5:15 PM on Tuesday, July 24th. There was only one person ahead of us so we were able to place our orders pretty quickly. We got a total of seven drinks and the kids were able to get all of our drinks made within ten minutes or so. I've actually been here on many occasions, but this was my first time coming in to place the orders myself so I was able to experience the service first hand. The drinks were made according to our likings and service was friendly & efficient. Unfortunately, this location is not in the best neighborhood, but I'm grateful that they are here since it's one of the best milk tea places in this area. read more

Service is never friendly but I love their milk tea. I usually always order the regular milk tea with boba and I'm never disappointed. However, I'm thinking of going out of my comfort zone and trying different flavors. I recently tried the red bean milk tea and I liked it as well. I usually order to-go because I find the area to be sketchy. read more
