Hidden gem in the Davis area, you cannot beat the price or the service. Upon entering there's a kiosk with a detailed menu of everything they offer and their Ten principles, one about the Perfect Drink Guarantee caught my eye, emphasizing they value the quality of their drinks and customer satisfaction. Our two drinks with toppings came out to be $10 and ready within 5-7 minutes of ordering. We ordered their Teabo Signature Black Milk Tea with boba and a Custom Blended Fruit Tea with crystal boba. I wanted to try their boba for sure since all of the reviews mentioned how divine it is. And I was happily surprised with the quality of their boba so late into the night. The texture was still very soft and chewy, not too sweet, and the portion of the boba was generous!! The black milk tea was strong and silky, I changed the sweetness to 75% and it was perfect. The ambiance is dark, dimly lit, lots of pandas (paintings and decor) everywhere. It was really quiet when I visited, I saw a couple students working on homework. And a family enjoying boba and various finger food snacks they offer. Would definitely come back whenever I'm in the area!! read more

One of the few boba spots in Davis open late at night. But it's really quiet here.. lights were super dim and I couldn't tell if it was open or not, kind of like an eerie motel off the side of a road. Staff were very kind, even late at night. Orders were accurate and efficient. I like the flavor customization options, but the tea is just regular. Snack options are a plus. Note: There is no public WiFi here. Kinda defeats the purpose of being open so late IMO. Would be a nice quiet study place if there was read more

Great boba cafe! Always have a good time here and have never had a bad experience The staff is super nice and very helpful if you're ever unsure of what to get. They know all the good drink or popular drink combinations When entering it's a small shop but still plenty of seating and nice for just a little chill spot by yourself or with friends. They have games you can play, like card games and jenga for you and your group They close pretty late at this location so those late night cravings are always met here! As for the boba and drinks! Honestly one of my favorite spots for boba will happily drive out of the way for this spot The combinations are endless and has never disappointed They use quality ingredients for those more fresh drinks and you can tell! For the food! So good Have gotten a couple things off their menu and let me tell you the star of the show is the sauce they offer The spicy ranch highly recommend They have a sweet chili also and that's also amazing But the spicy ranch Must have at least once The Cajun fries are a great shareable option and as well as the popcorn chicken Very good with the sauce or by itself All in all great staff, super helpful and nice Great food And great drinks! Always highly recommend read more

Told you I come back for the shrooms. Where else can you go if you are vegan and all your friends want popcorn chicken and boba. You can tell them to go to hell. Or you can forgive them like Jesus did for all of us and tell them to go to Teabo and try their fried mushrooms instead of chicken. Ambiance was great on a Friday night! Solid A read more

Ambiance: a small cozy boba shop with a respectable amount of seating. Service: self service kiosk with paper directions on how to order drinks. Food: I got the popcorn chicken and a custom milk tea. The popcorn chicken was average. It was crunchy and flavorful but had neither surpassed what was expected. The milk tea was quite unique as they had many customizable options. I thought this concept was interesting and quite enjoyed my honey and taro combination. read more

Teabo Café - Popcorn Chicken - Cafes Near Me - Davis, California

Milk tea: 4/5 The quality is pretty good. Service: 1/5 Went in and ordered with the kiosk right near the entrance. There was no one in the store so I assumed the staff inside the kitchen was making it. Waited a bit and started to become concerned. Went up to the staff counter and realized there was a tiny paper saying that the barista is gonna be away for 30 minutes. Why did they not put the paper on the ordering kiosk?!?!?! Since I have paid, I had to wait for the barista to come back. The staff inside the kitchen was still working and making the food orders for other customers. Why can't the kitchen staff make drinks???? I do not understand the management of this store. Avoid this place if you're in a rush. I do not live in the area so idk if that's their usual practice. I truly hope not but this was my experience. Ambiance: many tables inside. Plenty of parking outside. read more

I've always liked Teabo for their drinks and food. I used to come here in college when it was the only boba place in town. I don't live in the area anymore, so I only stop by Teabo for a treat when I'm on my way home. I usually get the chotaro (chocolate and taro) green milk tea with boba and their popcorn chicken. Although their boba isn't the best, it satisfies my craving when I want something affordable. I'll always enjoy the chotaro green milk tea flavor though. I also like that they give a generous amount of popcorn chicken and that it isn't too spicy. The service was a little slow during my last visit, but it's not always like that. Sometimes I order online, and just five minutes later, I get a text saying both my drink and food are ready. Teabo Cafe has always had a chill vibe. The lighting in the cafe makes me want to relax and socialize rather than study. read more

I'm not giving this place a 5 stars because I think their drinks are the best. In fact I think their drinks are just alright. I'm giving this place a 5 star review because their portion sizes for the cajun fries are huge for the price! & I LOVE their spicy ranch sauce so much sometimes I crave this place just for the sauce. read more

Great food and drinks. The new staff is terrible. Rude and audibly talking shit in the back. When confronted they acted like I'm in the wrong for politely asking how long my food would take. The manager needs to check who they hire for customer facing positions. Apparently asking how long your food will be to see if you have time to make a stop is treating them "like it's McDonald's" Staff: thin build white woman with colorful hair read more

The Chicken Katsu was very good and it didn't take very long to get my food! Overall the place has a nice ambiance to just sit down and have a meal or drinks. read more

Kind of disappointed. Paid like $30 on DoorDash ($21 to Teabo) for a milk tea and some popcorn chicken with two sauces. Milk tea was good but they added the wrong topping, I got no star jelly (like just put lychee jelly on the menu if you don't have the star version). The popcorn chicken was good but dry to eat without any sauce. I paid 60 cents each for sweet chili and spicy ranch, but received none. Teabo put "DOUBLE CHECK THIS ITEM" on their receipt too, but they obviously don't follow their own policies. Overall the food and drinks taste good, you just don't get the items that you pay for. They really need to check orders better. read more

Service was not good. Waited for my v basic classic milk tea for at least 15 minutes. People who came in behind me got their drinks much quicker. Tea quality was just ok. Molly jasmine and teaspoon are definitely better read more

Shout out to Teabo for being open hella late and therefore being our quick stop for a pick me up on the way back to Sac from Napa. You order from the kiosk and then pick up from the counter. Pretty simple. Tons of options to choose from You might want to consider going for the full sweetness cause mine at 50% didn't taste like anything. That's what I get for trying to watch my sugar intake. Played myself. read more

The fried mushrooms are always a must have when I go here. They're absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and juicy. I also tried the chicken Katsu with rice for the first time. It's very crispy and crunchy. There's also a lot of spices covering it and it's nicely balanced by the rice. The drink was okay, as it's mostly syrup and doesn't taste as heavy as milk tea. The main star is the food. One of my favorite places in Davis. The person who got me my food was super nice so a plus for that too read more

Teabo Café - Fried Mushrooms Chicken Katsu with Rice - Cafes Near Me - Davis, California

I love that you can order online and just pick it up when you're on the fly. They have a great selection of drinks. I have not tried the food... Maybe a little too many fried things for me but that's fine. Those coyotes is next-door. I typically have a Jasmine milk tea with very little sweetener. It never fails! Service is very good. They can get crowded, but generally if you go when they open, they're very few people around. They have parking out front. It's usually pretty quiet. There are a couple of tables outside as well. read more

Found this place after I ate at a nearby restaurant so I Stopped in for a quick drink. I ordered through the kiosk. It was quick and we got our order fairly quickly. I ordered the taro with boba and didn't adjust my sweetness which I usually do because most drinks are really sweet. I'm so glad I left it at 100% because it wasn't sweet at all. I also tried the Thai tea & it was much sweeter. Think it all depends on the drink read more

came back and we got a lychee matcha milk tea, oreo blizzard & popcorn chicken. The popcorn chicken was really good and so was the milk tea the blizzard wasn't the best when we first got it there were large chunks of ice in it and I went back to ask if there is anyway they can blend it more due to the large chunks of ice and they didn't seem the happiest about me asking and after a few seconds of silence they just responded "ok". We received it back and there were still chunks of ice so we definitely are going to just stick with the milk teas. read more

Teabo Café - Milk Tea with taro and boba - Cafes Near Me - Davis, California

There is only one lady preparing the tea, causing long waiting . Taste is also bad, no real bobas.

===== [Overview] ===== Teabo is the boba of Davis. It's the perfect place to study (during the day) or hang out (night). It serves every purpose as a boba cafe and is ingrained as the one of the best places in my memories here. Whenever I come here now, it feels like I'm coming home. Sad to see my polaroid with my friends is no longer on the wall but I'm happy to see new ones. ==================== ======= [Food] ======= This boba cafe does not have the generic drinks but is more for specialty. Their boba here is honey glazed, fresh, and warm when added to your drink. It's chewy. Recommendations: - [Teabo]: Their classic and it's delicious. - [Chotaro]: I feel like this is their most well-known because of how you mix two good things together. I drink it out of nostalgia but I think it tastes more like chocolate milk. - [Oreo Blizzard]: Maybe because my favorite ice cream flavor is cookies and cream but this is good on a hot day. ==================== read more

With no hyperbole, the worst tea I've had in California and all of the western seaboard in my 20 years around here. I passed through Davis on the way to SF and stopped by for a grab and go. The tea was so bitter when I tried it while driving I even thought about driving 10 minutes back towards Davis to return it, but it wasn't worth the hassle. Given the extreme bitterness I'm guessing they oversteeped the entire batch of tea by a day, and not just mine. Maybe it was an off day, but if so they prob screwed up a buncha people's tea that day. read more

The tea is over-steeped. The workers don't know how long the tea steeps for and, according to them, their boss has it made in large condensed batches instead of making the tea to order. Sugar is the only thing that makes this palatable and even then it's soapy. When I bought a boba (green tea, soy milk, with aloe, and lychee stars, zero sugar) the same tea I normally get at any other boba place, I got home to a soapy mess that was so disgusting I washed the boba and brewed my own homemade tea to use with the boba--which was at least okay. I called Teabo and said the tea was over-steeped. The customer service script ensued and they barely wanted to do anything about it but eventually said if I came by tomorrow night during one specific employee's shift, they would make me the same tea just not over-steeped. They changed nothing. Except this time they also forgot the lychee stars, even with a printed receipt provided. The tea was disgustingly over-steeped and this time without the sweetness of the lychee stars tasted worse. I called again and found out the workers have no idea how their tea is made. Their boss has others in the back make drinks in huge batches with unknown steep times. At that point I asked for a refund which they refused to provide. If you actually like tea, not just sugar loaded milk, avoid this place and go anywhere else. It's worth the wait and it only takes 2-3 minutes to steep green tea anyway. read more

We stopped in for a quick drink for the road. The regular milk tea with boba was on the lighter side (got it 10% sweet). I preferred my passion fruit green tea, no sugar - very refreshing on a warm day. The server was super nice about making sure the boba was the right sweetness, and drinks were out quick on a weekday afternoon. Bonus: they had cute cups! read more

I went to Teabo at least once every couple of weeks when I lived in Davis for undergrad. It was great-- fast service, good boba, delicious tea! I always got jasmine milk tea, half sweet, with half boba and half lychee stars. Lychee stars are awesome because they fit up the straw instead of getting stuck like the lychee jelly strips other places sometimes use. Coming back to visit, I of course had to stop by here! Unfortunately the tea quality was way different this time. The service was still fast, and the boba and lychee stars were still good, but the tea was kind of bitter and almost burnt/oversteeped tasting. I was sad that my favorite tea place tastes so different now. I'll try it again next time I'm in Davis; hopefully it was just a one-time thing. read more

I got the matcha green tea latte with jelly stars and it tasted very powdery and thick. I'm not too much of a fan of thick matcha lattes so I didn't enjoy it as much. The cashier was very eager to serve us and was very nice! The cafe itself cute and decorated well with lights & wall decor! With COVID, they have bathrooms available for customers. read more

Stopped by here because my bird wanted tea while we were in davis. I took my embo to teabo The drink was super sweet even when it was 50% sweet. Prob wont come back read more

Drinks was pretty good for its price compared to other boba places in Davis. It's nice to have a place that open pretty late in Davis.

Nothing too spectacular about their drinks, but I usually get their Thai tea. I do enjoy the snacks here. The fried mushrooms and orange chicken is pretty decent. I think they have one of the better tasting popcorn chickens with decent portion sizes. read more

Teabo Café - Thai tea - Cafes Near Me - Davis, California

Apart from the cute panda mascot, nothing really stands out about this place. I ordered their signature drink, the teabo. The boba was really squishy and slimy, which is either a sign of old boba that had been sitting around for a while, or boba not cooked properly. Either way, if a boba place can't master the execution of boba cooking then they need to make some major adjustments in their operations. read more

Me and my boyfriend were having a cute date night and wanted to order boba as a sweet treat. So we decided to order from here because they closed at 2 am and we ordered around 12:30. Both of our drinks only consisted of 10 boba pieces. how sad is that. Do not order from here if you hate paying extra for small amounts of boba. Definitely a management issue. I can't believe they are actually allowing drinks like this to go out to delivery drivers. Actually so ridiculous I let out a laugh went looking at our drinks. Please do better it's actually insane and pathetic. read more

Waited over 30 minutes for the food because the cook in the back kept coming to the lobby to hangout with his group of friends (mind you, they were all loud and obnoxious). It was lovely getting told by the girl making drinks that the cook was "working on our food" while he was doing tricks with a mop to his friends. When we finally got our food and we asked why did it take so long, we were responded with "The cook has a lot to do back there". Sure did seem like it. Won't be returning. read more

I give this experience an A+, I ordered with no issues, easily got a table and was able to wait for our food while enjoying some awesome music with K-pop music videos playing on the tvs. seems like a well taken care of place enough. our seats were clean, board games neatly stacked in the space, available to play like apples to apples. I drink I got was #2 chocolate + taro Milk tea with boba and it was delicious. I love taro and never had this combo. it was such a refreshing mix of flavors went well with the cooked chewy boba. The drink came out soon after ordering and not long after then came the fresh rice plates. Before I thought to come here I couldn't decide where to go to get boba and a snack in Davis but IMO this was the perfect place for a late day snack and hit the spot. It was my first time trying these items but they were so good and filling we were even able to save half the plates for later which makes me happy knowing I'll have another snack for later! Will be remembering to come here for whenever I'm craving boba or some delicious rice and fried chicken bites. 10/10 experience. Although I will add I have had the Thai fries and it was not my favorite item on the menu. I would personally look to try garlic fries next but I am no where close to trying the whole menu. a decent spot! read more

Teabo is one of our go-to spots here in Davis, CA! We always love coming here to celebrate the start/end of every quarter! The reasonable pricing, welcoming environment, speed, and variety of food/drinks make our ordering a pleasant experience. Starting with the boba, there's a large variety of toppings and flavors that you can mix and match to get exactly what you're looking for! If you're unsatisfied with your drink, they'll happily remake it for you! During this visit, we ordered a taro milk tea w/ boba and customized a matcha + vanilla milk tea w/ boba. The taro milk tea w/ boba was great! If you're craving a classic boba experience, this drink will surely satisfy you. The matcha + vanilla milk tea w/ boba was sweet and we found that the vanilla flavor was stronger than the matcha. We'd recommend this drink if you're looking for something sweet! The Chicken Katsu w/ Rice is our favorite dish from their menu! It comes with chopped breaded chicken, coated in their classic seasoning. The white rice is simple, but it complements the chicken well. While we enjoy it, there seems to be an abundance of rice compared to the chicken and we always have some rice left over. Maybe a more balanced rice-to-chicken ratio would enhance our experience. Overall, we enjoy this dish and it's one you must try! read more
