it's no surprise to those who know me.. but i live laugh love for banana matcha! the interior was cute and offered plenty of seating. they even had a photo receipt machine by the counter you can take photos on and hang along their window! the banana matcha was SO good! so creamy and paired nicely with the matcha. can we also appreciate the color?!? the default sweetness is set at 50% and is just the right amount without one overpowering the other. didn't try the double matcha nor the silky strawberry but my friends seemed to enjoy it as it was their second return read more

banana matcha: 6/10 flavor and taste was great but too much ice :( it was 80% ice and i finished it very quickly because there wasn't that much. the banana pudding on top tastes great and the texture is good but i wouldn't get again. i requested less ice but they said they couldn't because they need the pudding to stay afloat unfortunately. i would be open to getting another drink but with much less ice. overall, service was friendly and quick! there's a really cute photo booth that's free and you can also put it on the wall! read more

Teaspoon - Banana Matcha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Brea, California

I walked in on a Thursday morning and nobody was at the front so I stood around just waiting for somebody to come out from the back while they were chitchatting. The cashier ended up being nice but the two drinks I ordered... I hate to say this but was literally the worst boba/milk tea I've ever had. I got the matcha mango sticky rice and the regular mango sticky rice. The matcha one just tasted like watered down matcha, you cannot taste and mango (or mango puree) and the rice tasted old with no flavor. The regular mango sticky rice was very milky and had no texture. I could not taste any rice, the ratio of whole milk to everything else was overpowering. Maybe some of the other drinks are better but unfortunately, I cannot suggest these two drinks to my friends. read more

Taro lover 2/5 - the only good thing about this was the taro chunks. But I thought they would use only fresh taro and not taro powder for their milk. After getting fresh taro frostie at other boba places, I can't do taro powder anymore. It tastes super artificial Starlight black sesame 3/5 - this was okay but not the best black sesame milk tea that I've had. The Hojicha makes the flavor nutty but it was overpowering with the black sesame. Overall I wouldn't get these two drinks again but customer service was good. I asked to switch my taro milk tea for the starlight and they said if I didn't like the starlight either they can also switch it out but I felt bad to ask them to switch again. Maybe I should've stuck with a classic drink like brown sugar boba milk tea. read more

I went to Teaspoon on a Thursday at 2 PM. I ordered immediately and got my drink quickly. I got the double matcha with oat milk. The drink had more of a lighter and floral matcha flavor, but I prefer something more nutty. The size of the drink was also on the smaller side. The service was friendly and quick. The inside is very nicely decorated and I enjoyed how they had a photo op. read more

Teaspoon is pretty good comparing the other boba places around the area. I would definitely try it out if in the area and looking for a fruit or milk tea and just want to grab a bubble tea since it's quite well known. The prices are decent and service is pretty okay. Ambiance is pretty chill as well which fits the downtown brew vibe read more

I've wanted to check this place out since they open and just never got around to it. Friendly service, the guy who took my order was very pleasant. My order was completed right away, though they were fairly empty so may be why. I ordered the strawberry sangria tea, less sweet, since the person who took my order said the drinks were fairly sweet. Glad I opted for less sweet, I felt like it was the perfect amount of sweetness. The shop inside is a good size, plenty of tables and chairs , and a small patio outside too. My drink was $6.50 with no extras added. A little pricey but also a pretty large size. read more

What's super cute is they have their own photobooth. The owner actually customizes and changes up the design on the prints every one in a while. It was my first time coming here and I got their "lychee on lychee drink" and it was refreshing and delicious. My friend let me try some of her matcha drink and it was also yummy! Looking forward to trying out their other wide selection of smoothies, matcha, and coffees read more

Wow sooo good and well priced! I wish I lived closer to come back but this is one of the best matcha places I've had and in the fullerton/ brea location. I will say the matcha is VERRRRRYY sweet lol I got the reg matcha without knowing how sweet it was and I was shot with a boost of energy at 4 pm. My friend got the double matcha at like 25% sweetness and it was like the perfect amount of sweetness (thank you to the worker who suggested that). My friends and I also rly liked to play with the photo booth thing they had it was so fun. Pls give this place a try :3 I also heard they have good boba which I have yet to try read more

Came in on May 4th @ 9:45 pm. Me and my family ordered on the kiosk and when i stepped away near the front counter to let my boyfriend order, I hear the worker sigh and say to her coworker "(coworker's name) Wow I can't wait to close right now!" Clearly she was being sarcastic and rude, and I'm sure she meant for us to hear that. However given I came in at 9:45 pm i gave her the benfit of the doubt and I understand how closing is considering I've also worked in food service. But there were already 3 other parties in there. Other than that, I am giving 3 stars because the drinks/quality were good and ALSO I've come in on Christmas and met the owners, so I know the owners are kind but their workers and their service isnt. I've come in before and when I've asked workers questions about their menu they didnt know how to answer me or somewhat dismissed me. But moving on, when it was 10 PM, the worker came to the seating area to let us know we are closed. The people left inside were my family, another group of 3. So we all get up and leave and start throwing our trash by the trash can. And the worker was starting to take out the trash, my family was able to throw ours out. But for the party 3, one of the ladies throws her drink out and the worker replies "Oh?" and the other 2 were trying to throw out theirs and the worker goes "Can you throw your trash outside?" and the 2 ladies were like "Oh." and the worker closed the trash bag in front of their faces. I just thought that was incredibly rude and this experienced probably will have me and my family not return. read more

It's called teaspoon because that is the amount of liquid they put in your cup of ice. Trash. Couldn't understand the server. Broken hearted. Drink is all ice. I didn't say light ice but man, the entire drink was ice. For nearly $7.00, I could have just gotten a bag of ice. I don't remember the drink. It was three sips then gone. Place seems like a giant Instagram photo op. Update: my wife talked to the manager and we were informed that corporate mandates the liquid to ice ratio. Sure, it's understandable that corporate wants to maximize profits. I just wanted a drink that isn't finished in two sips. They remade my drink, so additional star. Still, would never come back unless I needed to post on Instagram. read more

What a hot day! I got their Ladybug drink (passionfruit green tea), sweetness 75% and it was perfectly refreshing. They are doing a collab with Hapa Bakery across the street and have their banana pudding - if you'd like to catch two birds with one stone just come straight here! Service was quick, the drinks came out shortly after I ordered. They also have a new drink - a watermelon passionfruit juice type of tea :) also a solid choice if you're feeling in need of hydration! Cute corner: They got a spot you can take "receipt" black and white photos! Stick it on the wall with their cutesy teaspoon decor tape, or take them home for memories! read more

We tried two different teas at Teaspoon and liked both of them. The grasshopper is lychee green tea with cucumber juice, and the guava sunset (uncaffeinated) is made with guava and pineapple marmalade. The grasshopper is very refreshing and I thought it was slightly better than the guava sunset, which was still good. Warning: The drinks must come really sweet by default, because we got ours at 25% sweetness and still found it to be plenty sweet. The menu of signature drinks has some unique offerings (like the grasshopper and strawberry pina colada smoothie) and some classic ones (strawberry/mango milk, matcha, etc.). At $6.50 each, it's on the slightly higher end of standard for boba prices. Anyways, I can't believe Brea has good boba spots now. How times have changed. read more

I got the Strawberry Matcha Latte and it was better tasting than expected! the drinks at teaspoon are on the pricier side, unfortunately. there's a handful of seating available along with pastries. They also sell keychains, stickers, & more from small businesses (?). Not sure who makes them but they are displayed right above the pastry fridge! It's definitely a good place to meet up with friends! read more

I stopped by on a Friday afternoon. The shop wasn't busy inside, though it was clear they had a steady flow of online orders, with multiple drinks lined up behind the counter. I waited patiently to order and was told it would take a moment, which was completely fine, I wasn't in a rush. What wasn't fine was paying extra for add-ons on an already $6.00 drink, only to receive my drink without the boba I paid for. I double-checked the sticker to make sure I hadn't ordered incorrectly, but it was clearly listed. While I acknowledge I probably should have checked the drink before leaving, it's frustrating when something so basic is missed. If the core of the job is assembling the drink, accuracy should be a given. Overall, the experience was disappointing, especially considering the price point. I hope this was just an off moment, but attention to detail would go a long way. read more

Had Teaspoon catering at my wedding and ordered only the drinks and toppings (no baristas though they do offer that service). Guests loved the creamy jasmine and mango green tea options with fresh toppings! Communication was great with BJ the owner who answered all my questions and even provided containers bigger than their standard tea traveler so I can pour into the drink dispensers I planned to use. Delivery was on time and drinks were tasty. I highly recommend Teaspoon if you're looking for boba catering! read more

First thing I really like about this place: really generous drink portions! Second thing I really like about this place: the drinks taste amazing! I say this as someone who normally prefers a lot of adjustments on my boba drinks, especially in regards to sweetness. The black sugar assam that I got was just the right level of sweetness for me. This was an incredible place to sit down and study for a while after an incredible dinner. Outlets, amazing music, and a nice drink to sip on made this an amazing experience! Would recommend. read more

Located in Downtown Brea with a modern aesthetic. The cashier was very friendly and offered helpful suggestions on the drinks. Not many bubble tea places have guava-flavored drinks, so I was thrilled to find the Guava Sunset. It was nice and refreshing, with perfectly chewy boba. The house milk tea tasted just as it should, so no complaints there. I'll definitely come back. read more

Not bad if you had a raging craving for boba. It's ultra sweet and has the standard flavors along with some seasonal flavors as well (albeit outdated lol) I got the seasonal green monster (Halloween drink during a time when it was almost December) which tasted like Thai tea mashed with matcha so that was strong enough to keep me up for a million years. Meanwhile my cousin got hooked onto their brown sugar milk tea that made her go back in the near future to grab another lol! Overall cute place with good service and decent boba. read more

Drinks are good many options they also will remake your drink if your not happy with it there is lots of seating and it's right next to food

The drinks are a bit pricey but worth trying. You can order at the counter or the self-service kiosk. There is a decent amount of seating inside. - Liquid Gold was good. I didn't make any adjustments but the drink wasn't too sweet and the oolong tea taste was noticeable - Silky Strawberry is a pass for me. It tasted more like milk with a hint of strawberry. Not worth the price. read more

Lawrence was such an amazing bobarista! I appreciate his fast service and kindness. He is very quick and attentive.

This boba shop has good quality matcha and great drinks!! Their collab with the bakery for the banana pudding was THE BEST EVER!! I also tried the strawberry piña colada, GREAT. And some other fruity drinks that are GREATTTTT! read more

Heard about this place online and knew it was a popular chain so I wanted to try it. I got Liquid Gold, half sweet with honey boba. So completely watered down, and didn't taste like either milk or oolong tea. I couldn't even salvage it by adding oolong tea bags at home. Boba didn't taste at all like honey. My sister got the house milk tea, 75 percent sweet. Literally just the basic milk tea. It was way too sweet for her, and she's a sweet tooth! No tea flavor. Brother-in-law got brown sugar boba assam. Guess what? No assam flavor. No brown sugar flavor. Just tasted like sugary water. You got three people with three different drinks and we ALL tossed our drinks? That's not a coincidence, that's a problem. Service itself was mid. Asked what the calorie counts on the menu mean (cuz every drink had a range). The male worker guessed it was for the sugar levels, he wasn't sure. Definitely had the vibe that he just worked there for the check. That's it. Yes, I AM upset and felt like it was a total waste of money. I genuinely can't recommend anyone go here. read more

1/9/24 - I ordered 5 drinks, each of which had a base price of $6 or $6.50. I got the Creamy Jasmine, the Black Sugar Assam for my partner, and the Caramel Cream, Strawberry Sangria, and Grasshopper for my family. You can order what you want at the counter up front of at the kiosk to the right side when you walk in. The creamy jasmine was good and I liked it! The boba pearls were okay; I've definitely had better at other places. In regards to the ice level, at some places, the "light ice" option leaves the drink not as cold as I'd like. Here, however, the drink was still rather cold which I appreciated. Everyone else really enjoyed their drinks. The lady working there at the time was nice and answered the questions I had about some of the drinks. I even got to try their free sample of the creamy jasmine which is what I ended up ordering. There weren't that many people in side, and I noticed that there was a section of their shop where it looked like people were studying. It's a clean, quiet environment which definitely makes this a good study spot. There's also free wifi! Additionally, make sure to download their app and make an account, so you can get rewards for your purchases. Aside from drinks, you can buy pins, stickers, and bottles from their merchandise. read more

I saw this place trending on Tiktok so my best friend and I decided to stop by. We walked in and instantly started looking at their "photo booth" wall because it had a lot of funny pictures on it! I think they let you take pics and hang them up, sadly while we were there they weren't doing them. The workers were friendly and welcoming. They explained a lot of the menu to everyone. The lady infront of us seemed a little difficult and kept asking for hot drink that they didn't have. The worker ended up going out of his way to try to make those hot drinks and asked us to give them a few minutes. I ended up getting their limited edition matcha pudding because it looks soooo yummy. AND IT WAS! They did a collaboration with Hapa cupcakes and they use Hapas banana pudding on top of their matcha. They recommend eating it with a spoon because it won't mix well in the drink. The spoonfuls of pudding and matcha paired very well with each other. I downed the whole drink almost instantly. 10/10 I will for-sure be back soon!! read more

I can't say I was impressed with the drinks at Teaspoon. Decided to come by on a Sunday afternoon to try a few drinks. Ordered the Creamy Jasmine ($6), Taro Lover($6), and Silky Strawberry ($6.50). I usually opt for jasmine milk tea at every boba shop I visit but the creamy jasmine here lacked jasmine flavor and was quite watered down IMO. The taro is another staple if caffeine isn't preferred - though I liked the real taro chunks within the drink, the taro based drink seemed powdered rather than fresh. The winner of the bunch was the silly strawberry, earning Teaspoon the 3 stars. There was a decent amount of strawberry marmalade included that paired well with the milk and honey boba. A refreshing drink any time of the day that I'd definitely come back for. Located in Downtown Brea, across from Bath & Body Works. Free structure parking available. read more

Teaspoon - Creamy Jasmine, Taro Lover, Silky Strawberry - Bubble Tea Near Me - Brea, California

Teaspoon is a boba shop located in Downtown Brea next to Bruxie. It's right across from the parking structure. They have a variety of milk teas, signature drinks, coffee, and lemonade. You can also customize your lemonade with a variety of different flavors. I ordered the Caramel Cream. It consists of hand roasted caramel and organic milk. I ordered it without the honey boba. The drink was wonderful. Great balance of milk and caramel. Nice caramel flavor with it not being overbearing. It wasn't overly sweet and thankfully did not give me a migraine or stomach ache which usually happens when I have these milky drinks. The service was pretty good. Cashier was friendly and drinks arrived within a few minutes. Shop was well-ventilated and somewhat spacious. It wasnt crowded at the time we went. There was a couple sitting side by side at the far end and a party of three that sat only for a couple of minutes before leaving. There was also another party of two near the entrance of the shop. Luckily there was no sitting next to us otherwise there would be absolutely no privacy in terms of conversing. After a while, we saw that there was an employee mopping the floor. The cleaner smell was so strong and incredibly distracting. We left and sat outside across the way. I enjoyed the Caramel Cream and would definitely order it again and possibly try more of their drinks. Could have been 5 stars but had to drop because of the horrible cleaner smell. Hopefully there will be no cleaner smell next time. I'd be back for another visit! read more
