    i've been here a few times and i will say that the tea drinks don't really have a strong tea flavor but are still good. The coffees however are amazing and strong.

    Osmanthus Oolong Tea w/ Honey Boba & Brown Sugar Crystal Boba
    Alyssa N.

    Stopped by on a Thursday afternoon and the shop was pretty empty but there's sufficient seating for those who want to hangout after work or school. Ordered an osmanthus milk tea with brown sugar boba and crystal jelly and it was pretty decent. I will say, the boba had a bit of a sour aftertaste (i noticed it when I was driving so didn't bother going back). I wouldn't say that it's from the boba going bad but I'd recommend the shop to test with different types of honey/syrups. Some react oddly to the starch of the boba and creates a sour taste. (Experienced this with a few shops before so it's not a major alarming thing for me, though I could see why other customers might flag this). Consistency of the pearls was good at least. The tea itself was floral, not too strong so for a younger audience, this is good. Service was good and employees were nice and kept the place clean. I'm a little neutral on the shop, so idk if I'd come back or not. Tbd. Overall rating: Food: 7/10 Service: 10/10 Menu: 10/10 Restaurant Vibes: 10/10 Price to Overall Dining (POD): 8/10 Update: The shop clarified that this is the natural taste from a boba brand they use. It makes sense and it's probably why other shops have the same boba after taste. I appreciate the information :)

    Double Matcha with oat milk
    Grace C.

    Teaspoon is a solid spot to get boba. Their drinks are refreshing and unique. I was excited when they announced that they would have their double matcha so I had to try it. I got it with oat milk and 25% sweet. It was a solid 3.5/5. It was on the sweeter side and the matcha flavor was not as strong as I'd like it to be. It's definitely better than a Starbucks or Better buzzed matcha but not something I would go out of my way for. Service was great and our drinks came out pretty quick. Update: Teaspoon reached out to me and let me know that I could have adjusted the matcha pour and made it stronger. That would have definitely improved the drink and make it a 5/5. I recommend trying the double matcha and requesting a heavy pour of matcha. Once again service was great and I'll definitely have to try this new adjustment!

    I came in after dinner to relax with friends, the atmosphere was very welcoming with board games to play and nonrigged claw machines. I was able to win 2 prizes for 10 dollars. The drinks themself were very refreshing and accurate especially since I make alot of modifications next time I come back to san diego I'm coming here to unwind!

    I love their taro drink, which is non-dairy. It has the perfect consistency and sweetness. I enjoyed having the taro bits in there, but they tend to clog the straw. Service was friendly and efficient, but it's not particularly noteworthy.

    Jasmine green tea with boba
    Christopher S.

    Nice spot for boba. Very nice service and clean. Ordered jasmine green tea with boba, light ice, 50% sweet. Tea was good, ice was light, and not too sweet, but also kinda light on the boba. For the volume or drink I'd expect a little more boba. The boba was good and consistent though still.

    Location is easy to find. We are not locals and just happen to be in the area. I like how their drinks are not very sweet and their portions are bigger. They look very nice on camera. Wait isn't very long and the girls making the drinks are nice and friendly. For a small store, they have a lot of tables and seats provided. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the price. They are on the pricier side. Overall, I will come back again if we are ever back in the area.

    Left: Liquid Gold Right: Classic Thai Tea
    Kaitlyn W.

    Teaspoon is one my go-tos for boba and always has the strong tea flavor that I look for in my milk tea. The liquid gold drink was very creamy and refreshing, and also had the perfect sweetness. The classic thai tea was also very good and came with boba, which was average if I'm being honest. I loved the ambience inside Teaspoon. There were many tables for people to sit and sip their drinks while doing work. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back for more!

    Decided to stop here during my vacation in Carlsbad. It's just like any other teaspoon, but open way later. They also had board games and more for their customers to enjoy with their beverages! The staff was very friendly and helpful and the store is clean. Always love teaspoon's drinks, but the only issue is the prices here are higher than the ones back home. I get it though, as there weren't many boba places in Carlsbad to begin with!

This was the first time for my mom and I and the service was excellent. My mom had the fruit parfait and I had the Cinnamon French Toast with cream cheese and cinnamon syrup. It was the best although i was not expecting the french toast and the cinnamon to be that sweet. It definitely gave me a bit of a sugar rush :) Excellent service from our waitress who was super sweet and checked on us and was very nice. Will have to come back again in the near future!

We were seated on the patio--which was fine because we had our 2 year old with us--but it was 80 degrees out and not a lot of air flow. Our server's name was Kyra or Kyla--I'm not too sure because it was hard to hear her over the music playing. She was nice enough but there must've been sort of disconnect with our toddler's meal. Either she forgot to put it in the POS system and asked the kitchen to quick fire it or the kitchen was in the weeds and we weren't made aware of the situation. Nonetheless, we purposely put the kid's burger in when we put our appetizer in. Her burger didn't come out until 45 minutes after the appetizer got to our table! I'm not exaggerating either--515 we got our fries and then at 6pm a child's hamburger...on a Tuesday! Our entrees were finished and we asked for the bill before it even came out. I shouldn't have had to check on it as a server's job is to know what your table has ordered and make sure it actually gets to the table. I'm extremely disappointed that there was no apology, no discount or comp. to our meal because of this mistake. We won't be returning.
