Good boba tea is so, so, so hard to find in SA so this place earns extra stars for doing it right! The only downside for me is that it is so far from the medical center so I would really need to be craving it for the tea to be worth the drive. WHAT TO ORDER: Tapioca Cream Tea, Tapioca Green Tea with Cream WHY IT'S GOOD: First of all, the boba tastes very fresh and isn't chewy and cooked right - not over or under cooked on the inside! Secondly, the flavor is always very refreshing and floral! There are other sinker options here too if you're tired of boba - my favorite sinker will always be the popping jelly. Also big stars for the friendly service here! For those of you who crave a good CLASSIC MILK TEA (which for some reason has been hard to find at boba shops in SA), you can find it here disguised under the Tapioca Cream Tea but please be aware that this is a sweeter version of the classic milk tea! They have so many flavors on their menu here so I'm excited to always come back and try something new! read more

Great boba tea with incredible variety! One of the few places we can get boba tea and Vietnamese coffee. read more

My favorite place for bubble tea in San Antonio so far!! Fast service , staff is friendly , place is clean and they have few table games to entertain you. They have about 140 different bubble teas. read more

Tealicious Cafe - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I love this tealicious place, especially the one out in Helotes/1604 area! Can't go back for the next 3 months but you best believe I'm going to get my sip on when my time's up ;) read more

Tealicious Cafe - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

There wasn't too much of a real fruit smoothie section which was disappointing. Also, the prices were a bit steep than what I'm used to. And c'mon ... who charges for extra boba when your drink is already $4.50 .... ? Overall, I had an ok experience, but I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Why would I put effort into this. My local Tea shop. Fantastic coffee and games the end

I love Tealicious! The boba smoothies and milk teas are on par with the boba places I've been to in California. My favorite tea is the jasmine green cream milk tea hot. Very light and floral tasting. Great for a mid-day pick me up. My favorite cream smoothie is the mango cream blend smoothie without boba. The mango smoothie tastes like real fruit and I'm pretty sure they use real ingredients/fruit here. The popping boba is yummy and the jellies are pretty decent. I get the mango jelly often. The ambiance is that of your typical boba shop and the prices are pretty standard for boba drinks. The store is clean and new and parking is never really an issue. Definitely the best and most authentic boba shop in San Antonio! Only negative: I tried the mango pudding recently. To be honest it was kind of weird and tasted like paper, so I hope they do something to fix this. I don't know if it was expired or what. read more

Hands down, the BEST boba served in San Antonio. The fresh tapioca pearls provide excellent texture, unlike the overcooked tapioca at other boba places (no names shall be mentioned) that ends up too chewy or too mushy. The ambience is cute and relaxing with board games and couches, pretty standard for most boba places. The price is also very reasonable, ranging from 3-4 for the teas. FAVORITES: -Jasmine green tea with cream (floral and light) -Tapioca green tea with cream HONORABLE MENTIONS: -Tapioca cream tea (slightly sweeter version of the classic milk tea) -Taro cream shake. I bring this one up because Taro tea is usually pretty hit or miss. I've had it at a restaurant in Dallas and it was excessively sweet, so I just dismissed the idea of Taro tea all together, until my friend ordered it at Tealicious. I was actually pretty impressed, although I would still probably order it with half sugar because I'm overly sensitive to sweet flavors. I've heard many boba places mess up Taro, so I think it says a lot about Tealicious for pulling it off so well. read more

I didn't know the depth of my love for tapioca until I came to this place. A friend turned me on to this place after describing to me how she didn't understand the appeal. Clearly she is crazy because tapioca is healthy, delicious, and Tealicious mixes flavors and blends that you could go every day and treat your tastebuds to a different masterpiece every day of the year. Try: Avocado and chocolate Coconut chocolate Taro Root Peach Everything!!! read more

It's been far too long since I've been back here...3 yrs to be exact. It's still a fantastic place to enjoy a huge variety of drinks. They have over 100 drink options to choose from, so you can't get bored easily. They have a menu behind the register and on the walls. It's very bright and family friendly. My fave drink is the Pina Colada with extra boba...or tapioca pearls as the they are also called. Make your way over. You won't be disappointed! read more

Tealicious Cafe - Pina Colada with Extra Boba! - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Been hear at least 50 times. Their service has gone down, they don't care for their customers anymore very very arrogant. To be honest, their teas are very diluted nowadays. Their tapioca are mushy and have I had another choice I would have never chosen them. No more boba tea's until a new place comes up.:( read more

Bubble tea is one of my favorite drinks in the entire world. Taro runs through my boba clotted blood vessels. That being said, I was delighted to find this gem in San Antonio while I was on my road trip across the country! If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this spot! Thai Tea w/ Tapioca: Thai tea has always been my favorite drink but it's often plagued by too much sugar--Tealicious does it right! The Thai Tea Boba was super refreshing, not too sweet, and just great for the god-forsaken Taxas heat. Other than this particular flavor, Tealicious has a huge variety of flavors/smoothies/teas so I'm sure something will pique your interest. Service: Service was great--it's always nice to be greeted with a smile, of course. Only waited maybe 4 or 5 minutes before my order came out and I was on my way. Price: I will admit that the price was a little high at $4.50, but if you love boba, it's worth a Lincoln. read more

Went late on a Monday night for bubble shake. Strawberry banana was what I chose. Very clean and nice people. Their seating arrangements are also very colorful and cozy. They do close promptly at 9 during the week. It was delicious. I plan on coming back. read more

My family comes here almost each week we go grocery shopping. We've had some good drinks and some bad drinks here, but we'll still come back. It's more we ordered a flavor and it wasn't quite what we were expecting so next we come we try a new flavor. I usually love avocado smoothie anywhere I go, but this place was not my favorite when it came to avocado. Their lychee is great though. I also enjoy their Vietnamese coffee there. Orange cream tasted a little strange. Watermelon was pretty good. My husband enjoyed the Durian. Mango is pretty decent. We've tried a few other flavors too but I can't remember what flavors and what I thought of it, haha. But we'll be back because it's still a great place and boba tea places are so limited here in San Antonio. read more

I have been frequenting Tealicious on average about once a week since they opened! One of my favorite traits about this establishment is that they are so close to my house. Parking is ample and has never been a problem. The atmosphere is clean and modern. Like most bubble tea places, their selection is overwhelmingly large! The menu posted behind the counter is hard to see, but they also have it posted at eye-level on a wall for easier viewing. I prefer a black tea base (on the rocks). I have had the rose, lavender, and strawberry black teas with aloe vera sinkers. I request less sugar usually, as well. The staff here is very nice and one of the big reasons I keep returning. Also be sure to sign up for their Frequent Drinker program! read more

I had this place bookmarked for a month now and finally went in today. The employee was super helpful when I asked what drink might be good for my husband (he can't have sugar) ... She explained how they made their drinks (ingredients) and that each one is made to order. She also then suggested which ones to choose from. I got the vanilla coffee frozen drink with tapioca and my husband got the hazelnut coffee frozen drink (bonus: they have Stevia!) with tapioca. Drinks were made fast and only $10... Not bad for the size. The flavors were really good and the texture was smooth. Not a chunky shake. About half way through our drinks we started to feel ill... We thought maybe from the tapioca. Only because we've had plenty of frozen coffee drinks and never gotten sick, we haven't had tapioca in a while and the one time we do- we get upset tummies. I'd like to go back and order a non tapioca drink and see how that goes. The store was clean and had plenty of seating/tables. read more

I love this place. I can't have dairy or caffeine but basically all of their drinks are made with a non-dairy creamer so I can have whatever I want. I think a lot of boba places use a nondairy creamer but they just don't say it with confidence so I am always scared to try something made with milk. Tealicious uses this creamer for so many drinks, so I'm not just limited to fruity beverages. I can even have their egg pudding / custard. My favorite drink to buy is the taro milkshake 25 to 50% (depending on my mood) sugar with egg custard and boba. It's delicious and I recommend it to anyone who loves creamy taro treats. Being dairy free, i rarely get to experience the fun cozy feeling of a milkshake or creamy smoothie, so I love going to Tealicious. The only thing I wish they would change is later hours, I can't tell you how many times I've wanted boba at at 9:00 pm and they are closed. Maybe one day! read more

This was one of the first authentic boba tea places that I visited near UTSA. They carry a very wide range of flavors and sinkers (tapioca, jelly, poppers, etc.) They're very fast with their orders, and with accuracy too! They now carry more aesthetic drinks such as milk caps and gradient drinks. I have only been able to try the milk cap so far. For those who do not know about this tea trend, it is basically a slightly salty foam cap. Their milk cap is only lightly salty compared to other tea places, perfect for those who are feeling a bit adventurous. The only downside is that you have to peel off the lid, so careful with it when you drive. Another favorite of mine is the crazy drink. It's very refreshing and the multiple sinkers give the drink a great variation in texture. It's a fun drink that'll freshen up your hot day. I also recommend the almond coffee, it gives the coffee a nice refreshing flavor. The flavor is very similar to the amaretto liquor flavor, for those who have tried it. read more

Tealicious Cafe - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Hands down my favorite place to get boba! I always get the #7 (coconut cream black tea) with extra boba, ice, and soy instead of half and half at a quarter level sweetness! It's the PERFECT drink for me! I'm literally there every other day getting this tea! I've tried the crazy drink....not a big fan their is to much going on in that drink (sinkers) to actually enjoy the drink itself...just my opinion. It's a top seller so give it a shot! I've tried the Thai cream tea! Very delicious. I always go back to my number 7 though, my point is drinks are great and their is a HUGE variety of drinks to choose from. They have like a retro feel colorful inside. Booths and comfortable lounging chairs. The service is very friendly! They give you a punch card for every 10 drinks you get 1 free! read more

I think I have a problem.... Since I first had my first a few weeks a go, I have to stop by every few days. Im sure thats not good for my waist line but damn I cant stop drinking them. My favorite have to be the strawberry & banana w/tapioca - so good. The mango is always a good one to start with. Had the avocado but that was okay, creamy but really no flavor. Sometimes the tapioca is a little underdone, but when it is cooked perfectly- yumm-O!!!! As others have mentioned, they do have frequent card- you use your phone number before you pay & you get a free drink once you hit $40. read more

Went here later in the evening looking for good boba tea. They were out of boba first off and second they got my order wrong and didn't even put any of the other sinkers in my drink that I had asked for. There are better boba spots in SATX. Only went cause it was open. read more

I want to go here everyday! Sometimes all I can think about are their delicious cream tapioca matcha drinks. If I'm not thinking about the matcha drink then I'm thinking of one of the other hundreds of flavors they have. With their large selection of drinks, you are sure to find the flavor you are looking for. Red Bean, Matcha Green Tea, Durian, Banana, Avocado, Taro.. so many tasty choices! The consistency of the tapioca balls are perfect and the drinks are the perfect amount of sweetness. This place has got down the calculations for each ingredient needed. They have even perfected the swirl methods of the whip cream. The staff here are the friendliest people. You can tell they enjoy working here and love the drinks themselves. This is a great place to hang out with friends and family. The prices are great, ranging from $3-$4. I can't believe I'm writing this down, I should be at Tealicious right now! If you have never tried bubble tea before or are a fan of bubble tea then I recommend you give Tealicious a try! read more

They have amazing cold brews and other teas! My personal favorite is the Caramel Frappuccino and the Mango milk tea!

Yuuuuuuuuummmmm! By far, my favorite bubble tea spot in SATX. Finally a spot on the northwest side. Love the kiwi and taro flavors. And they have couches and tables for you to stay and mingle while you sip. read more

I absolutely love the cookies and cream smoothie that they have. It's my favorite to order

I love this place! It's down the street from me and I never ever have to wait a long line. All the employees are super sweet as well. I always order the almond milk tea while I was pregnant I would crave it so much but because it had way too much sugar one of the employee recommended the brown sugar milk tea it's new! And it's super good too just less sugar! read more

I'm from San Francisco where there's a boba place on every street corner. I am a little bit of a boba snob. I ordered the milk tea with boba (#1). The milk tea tasted good. However, the boba was not cooked as good as I would have liked. They were not very soft and did not have any sweetness. But with that said I will go back if I am in the area since there are not a lot of boba options in San Antonio read more

Yummy bubble tea!!! Finally found a cute tea place in San Antonio! They also have some munchies and wi-if :) also they have a ton of board games , it's a nice place for friends to hang! read more

Definitely a great location to get some refreshing boba tea and more! I've never had any issues with this location and everything has always tasted great and consistent. My go to drink is the taro cream blend! I planned on taking pictures but the drink never lasts long enough! I believe they only have one size now, the larger cups, so just a heads up if you planned on getting a smaller drink. It can get a little loud inside from the blenders and what not, if you have little ones. We always get them to-go just because of the noise, the kids don't like it but it isn't a huge issues and it isn't the locations fault, so definitely don't hold it against them. read more

Never really been to any other bubble tea places but gawd dam let me just say the taro is the BEST I will forever not stop going there and getting me something to drink until it shuts down read more

This is one of the best bubble tea joints I have ever been to. They have an extensive menu with hot tea, cream tea, black tea, green tea - I feel like Dr. Seuss listing all these kinds of teas and I'm not even done. They have an impressive array of flavors and add-ins, including a couple kinds of boba and pudding. I got green tea with lychee and boba, and was pleasantly surprised with a drink that was sweet but not too sweet, pleasantly flavored, and with the smallest boba I had ever encountered. Everything was well-balanced and pleasant. The seating is charming with a couple of different options including squooshy couches, chairs to sink into, chairs to perch on, and chairs for lounging in a relaxed but still alert state. I found the atmosphere relaxing and there's free wifi for all of my needs to look at cats or argue with strangers. Overall this was a very positive and relaxing experience, and the tea is delicious. read more

A VERY solid bubble tea location in San Antonio. The fruit drinks are made with actual fruit and taste super delicious. Discovered this place after a meal and it's my go-to place for dessert or a nice cool drink. My de facto drink is the Almond Green Tea w/cream and tapioca though after a friend of mine tried the taro I might have to try that also. If you are looking to try bubble tea this is a great place to do it as I've never had a bad one and everyone I've been with here has enjoyed it. The price is also quite reasonable around 4-5USD a drink. Taste the Tealicious rainbow!!! read more

I'm excited to have a new bubble tea place in San Antonio that really steps up to the plate! Every time I get boba somewhere in Austin or Houston and come back to SA's bubble tea offerings I feel a bit disappointed, but not anymore. Every drink I've had so far is delicious but my favorite at the moment is lavender green tea with cream and tapioca. The place itself is very clean and has quite a bit of seating as well as free wifi! The menu lends itself to endless combinations of drinks and they have some prepackaged snacks for sale as well. The frequent buyer program is also nice and, unlike a lot of places with such programs, they will actually remember to mention it to you and input your purchase every time. The employees have always been friendly and are very quick about getting drinks out regardless of how many customers are there. I'm so glad this new place seems to be doing very well and I know I'm going to be a regular! read more

Giving one star because they were out of tapioca!!! How can a Tapioca shop be out if tapioca?!? When I asked for it the girl showed me the sign with an attitude. When I was given the receipt she showed me where the tip line was as if I can't read obviously hunting for a tip. read more

Been to a few locations in town and still our number choice for Boba drinks! Have brought out of town family here too and they wish they had one in their town. Must try if you enjoy a variety of Boba drinks. read more

This is my go-to place for Boba drinks. With so many to choose from, it's hard not to find a drink you'll love. Tapioca cream tea, taro cream tea/blend, fresh taro cream blend, green tea frap, cantaloupe cream tea and avocado cream blend are my favorites. Their selection of green and black teas are okay. I say that because I don't really go here for teas. I've tried it and it's ok. I just prefer the cream teas/blends. Their boba taste really good too. I normally only get this with cream teas because they tend to freeze fast with cream blends. If you're feeling adventurous, try their crazy drink. It's basically winter melon juice with all the add-ons they have. It's pretty good and refreshing. They also offer free wifi if you intend on hanging out for a bit. Don't worry about parking. There's tons to choose from. read more

Tealicious Cafe - Beat the heat with this :) - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

THE BEST BUBBLE TEA I HAVE EVER HAD. It's delicious from the tapioca balls to the actual drink itself. What makes this bubble tea better than the rest is the how iced smooth and creamy it is. Also I love the fact that I have she option of getting it with soy milk. The options are endless. It's overwhelming in the best way possible. I absolutely love all the crazy combinations they come up with. I can't wait to go back and try something new. The juices look fantastic as well. I've only gotten a creamy bubble tea. I had taro with coconut and it was to die for. Literally didn't want my drink to ever end. I wanted to savor it but wanted to drink it at the right pace because the smoothness of the ice was just too awesome. I sound crazy right? But it really was just that kind of experience! Tealicious really does have something special going on! If you haven't guessed it by now, I HIGHLY recommend this place!!!! read more

Boba tea heaven!! I'm obsessed. SO many flavors, so many possibilities! The selection is great and everything tastes great too. The tapioca is the right texture and the right flavor! Other places have had sub-par tapioca which ruin the point/experience of your boba drink. You can also add tapioca to anything, your iced coffe, smoothie, tea drink and on and on. Flavors range from traditional cream tea to chocolate/avocado something blend. Everyone's tastes are covered. They also have what they call "sinkers" which are jellyed flavored add ins, like coffee, strawberry, lychee. So if you don't want the typical tapioca, there are options there too. I have never had bad service here. My drink almost always come out in a reasonable amount of time, very busy times included. They have a punch card, 10 drinks=1 free! The store has a good amount of seating. It's clean and looks nice. If you don't like your flavor just say so and they will make you something else! Anytime you want boba keep this place at the top of your list! read more

I heart this place! Feels like I'm back home in Atlanta waiting for my delicious bubble teas!!!! I've been here once a week so far! read more
