Teaspoon is always a great boba pick, they manage to make seasonal, classic, and their signature drinks incredibly well. The quality of tea along with the choice of dairy and various other additives (extracts, fruit juices, etc) always manage to complement one another very well. This location is no exception. It closes pretty late, so my friends and I came over after having dinner in the plaza to order our drinks. My friend ordered the white grape oolong tea with crystal boba, and I ordered the strawberry colada with lychee jelly. It was our first time ordering these specific drinks. Wow. The strawberry colada was so delicious! I love the coconut flavor, it stands out against the sweeter strawberry. I will say, I'd prefer for it to be less sweet, but I don't think the level was adjustable for this specific order. Lychee paired with this made for a very nice tropical tasting dessert. The white grape oolong tea with crystal boba went together very well. I love how Teaspoon always manages to add in unconventional fruits to their tea (along with their customizable make your own tea service). read more

I really like the boba here! The consistency is not too chewy and not too tough, just right. The genmaicha (japanese rice milk) tea is pretty good, although I would recommend getting less sugar. read more

Overall: 4.1/5 The interior of Teaspoon is nice and clean but small so most people just pick up their drinks and go. We went around 9 PM on a Tuesday so we got a table to chill at, with not many people coming in at that time. Teaspoon's drinks in general are on the less sweet side so I usually go for 75% instead of 50% sweetness but even for the drinks that you can't adjust sweetness, it's at a good level. Peppermint Matcha ($6.50): We got their seasonal drink and added passion fruit dolphins which was a mistake because most of the flavor came from the passion fruit. I didn't really taste the peppermint or white chocolate so it tasted like a very different drink. It's not a sweet drink so I would try it again without any toppings. Strawberry Colada ($6.50): This was actually not as sweet as I thought it would be. It tasted like a Pina colada with a stronger pineapple taste than strawberry. The smoothie is a bit more grainer though. Still, it's a great non-alcoholic substitute that will satisfy your drink craving. Taro Lover ($5.50): This is my brother's go to drink here as it never disappoints. They have real taro chunks in here too so if you're picky about your drink texture, this might not be the drink for you. I had it at other Teaspoon locations and liked it. read more

Came around 9pm and it was empty. Parking was free and easy in the huge plaza. Inside was clean with limited seating. Service was really quick. Ordered 6 drinks and came out in 10min. 10/10 Liquid Gold - tea sweetness was great. Go for 75% if you do not want too sweet. Tea flavor was strong but very similar to the jasmine. 10/10 Creamy Jasmine - same as liquid gold 7/10 Lychee on Lychee - had lychee bits as a topping so that's why it's cost extra. Drink was just fruity and not really any tea flavor. Good one to try but I'd order the other ones over this if I go again. read more

Teaspoon is probably one of my favorite boba places, and asides from Teaspoon's location in Davis, this is the only other location I've been to. The first time I went here, I came to do some work since they have wifi which is awesome! I came during a weekday in the afternoon so it was pretty empty. I ordered my favorite drink - Silky Mango. The drink was SOO GOOOD! The boba was also soft, sweet, and chewy. My bf said it was kind of sweet, but I have a bit of sweet tooth so I LOVED it! The second time I went, I came because they sent me a text saying that I could redeem a free drink (up to $6) for my birthday. Now...they explicitly stated this was from the Milpitas location. When I came in this time around, it was self-order via a virtual kiosk rather than with the cashier. I asked the worker if I could put in my rewards number, and he said that they weren't currently doing it. The only way to do it was through their Teaspoon app. I had to download the app and figure that out in the store with a low battery. It took me 5-10 minutes so that was annoying. Regardless, I was able to redeem my free drink voucher. I meant to order a Strawberry Matcha Royale but I accidentally clicked the Mango one instead. I wanted to change it, but I already saw the worker making it the LITERAL minute I sent the order request. I was both impressed and a little bummed LOL. I still enjoyed the drink since mango is like crack for me heehee. It was similar to Silky Mango except less sweet and with matcha. The boba was a teensy bit harder this time around but ehhh...it was basically free so I wasn't too upset. I would get this drink again though. Despite these little minor mishaps, I still love Teaspoon. I will be back again and hope to try new drinks in the future :) read more

I don't have enough nice things to say about this location. The people that work here are nice, and the service is quick, and the drinks taste great! My favorite is their matcha milk tea, with or without strawberry. Twice they have helped me out in a tough situation. The first time as I was going home I dropped the drink and the plastic film exploded off and my entire drink spilled. I called them and they made me a new drink on the house. Second time I wanted to try a newer drink but didn't like the taste at all. They made me my milk tea drink instead. Anyway, just know that you're in good hands! read more

I really hate writing bad reviews... but I was so disappointed in my drink here. I normally don't go to Teaspoon for boba, but was in the plaza and was craving some boba. It was a very busy day with only one person working, so maybe that is why the drink was not good? I ordered a brown sugar boba at regular sweetness. The drink was not good. It was like drinking molasses. It's possible that it was so busy and there was no love in making the drink, but I'm not sure if I would return. read more

Felt obligated to write this review based on the seasonal Honeycomb Banana Latte (their own house made banana milk!) !! It really is a perfect blend of banana milk + some undertones of coffee. You can really taste both flavor profiles without one being too overpowering. Since you're sipping this drink through a boba straw, I didn't really get to munch on any honeycomb pieces or even noticed them, but that's okay :) Im sure they added to the multilayered flavor profile! I normally build my own drink here and get either jasmine MT or rose oolong. If you're someone who doesn't like their drinks too sweet, opt for the 50% sugar, 75% was too sweet for my liking. They also offer lactose free milk as their base milk. They have other options like oat milk as well! As most boba places, adjustable sweetness and ice. Located in the same plaza as Daeho, Tong Tsui, Paris Baguette -- there's plentiful parking ! GET THE HONEYCOMB BANANA LATTE WHILE YOU CAN. I'm sure the non-caffeinated version (Honeycomb Banana Milk) is just as yummy. Two of my friends tried and they approved ! read more

Overall I love the selection and speed at which they deliver their drinks. While there weren't any stand out drinks, I'd come back and give them another go for their unique flavors. White crystal - 4/5 - drink was light and refreshing, but had barely any crystal boba. Flamingo (special) with boba - 3/5 - I loved the mixture of passion fruit and watermelon juice, but the passion fruit seeds were a mistake with the boba. If you decide to get this drink, nix the boba. read more

Warning: birthday drink redemption rant and I know it's a first world problem. I came in to redeem my birthday drink - PSA you get a $6 drink if you are signed up for their app! I had a number of issues leading up to it though. I could see the bday reward but couldn't redeem it in the app. Customer service got back to me though and said I could do it through their website. They were right, so I tried to place my order. It seemed to work, but unfortunately something wasn't right when I hit send and so it told me to re-enter my payment information. When I did that, apparently it took off my promo that had been applied, didn't show me the total, and when I hit confirm, that's my side paid the full amount! I had taken off the promo I had applied so I didn't get to redeem my birthday reward, I called the store immediately, but they were not able to do anything as far as cancel or refund since I already paid, I just went to the store and picked up my drink. I got the guava Sunset with aloe, and it was delicious! I got it less sweet, but I must say it was still pretty sweet. My kids loved it! I do wish they had some thing other than less sweet as an option. Can I do 25% sweet? I don't know what less sweet means! I like that they give samples in store, so I got to try their strawberry sangria, which I had been intrigued about. It was made full, sweet, so it was quite a bit sweeter than I would get, but it was quite tasty! I also like how clean and pretty the store is. All in all, I'm not sure if customer service will get back to me about resolving the $6 promo issue but their app could use some work, their store should be able to cancel/refund things, and I'd want other sweetness levels please! Otherwise, I've always been a fan of their teas and Boba! read more

Teaspoon has friendly wait staff, good drinks which are reasonably priced. Tried their strawberry colada, guava sunset, grapefruit garden, and mango funtime...all delicious. What sets this place apart from other boba drink shops? The toppings. They have a relatively decent amount of topping options; the popping boba is my favorite. Not only do they offer the popping boba, they offer several flavors of it. How can you go wrong with multiple flavors of popping boba? Something about the texture and how the flavorful juice explodes in your mouth when you apply pressure to each piece. The popping boba is a must-have topping. The jelly toppings are nice too. I've always been a fan of lychee jelly. This place can get crowded at times even during late night. read more

Not sure how I don't already have a review of this place. Usually when I come to this shopping plaza, this is my go-to for boba tea drinks. Though they have a couple other options in the same plaza also. Anyways my friend and I stopped in after lunch to grab a drink. Then we proceeded to hang in there, chatting for about an hour. I would say everyone else came to get their drinks and leave. Anyways I got the guava sunset. I wasn't feeling tea, so I think the guava sunset was more juice than tea. I have had their ladybug, grasshopper, silky strawberry, strawberry sangria, matcha strawberry, lychee on lychee, etc before. I do like their fruity drinks. I think most drinks you can customize the sweetness and/or ice. But they don't always ask and I don't always remember. However it clearly states if you don't like your drink, they will remake i. I personally have not sent a drink back but while we were there this most recent time., some guy came back claiming the drink was too sweet and they made him a completely different drink with less sugar for free. That's some good customer service. read more

I ordered the traveler and it's charging me $3 per Topping even if it said choice of 2 topping! How unfortunate! read more

Teaspoon is one of the more consistently good boba spots. Although I miss their Mojitos, I like the new guava Sunset and of course the classic grasshopper. I also really wanted one of their limited edition boba straws but sadly they were out. read more

2 drinks for $14 The mango smoothie with chamoy and tajin, make sure to mix it up real good before you put in the straw, otherwise you get a big gulp of straight chamoy. The guava sunset is super tangy and refreshing, perfect on a hot summer day. The boba is very chewy, pretty standard. The drinks are only one size, but they ask you how sweet you'd like the drink. The drinks came out super quick, there was only one person ahead of us. I love that they have different seasonal flavors and even coffeee drinks. You are able to order ahead with their app & earn points for free drinks! read more

Came here around 5pm at 8/15. Drinks was great. I wouldn't order fries and mochi donut ever. The fries looks burnt toasted and mochi donut was old. I can tell because its not soft anymore. read more

I've been to this Teaspoon several times over the years -- usually a standard experience compared to other locations within the Teaspoon chain family. I ordered a Lychee on Lychee today. My friend didn't want anything as she already had her morning coffee. I added grass jelly to my drink in addition to the lychee jelly the drink combo already came with as a standard. My only suggestion would be to add honey or brown sugar to the grass jelly because it always tastes so plain when I order it at a Teaspoon. The black tea infused with lychee was fine. Another thing I will note is that you can't customize a lot of the speciality drinks because they're already pre-made or pre-mixed. If you are like me and like to customize sweetness levels, you will likely have to build-your-own drink. Other than that, not a whole lot to report. It is still a order-at-the-door format for this Teaspoon (like all the others in the area), but they'll get you on your way pretty quickly. read more

Finally managed to end up at one of these Teaspoon spots. Ordered their signature Taro drink which...well...it's about the 4 star rating I'm giving the location. The drink is good. But as my friend who went with me said, the place isn't exactly mind blowing. It's satisfying when looking for a drink but compared to Boba Bliss' taro ube drink, I'd take Boba Bliss in a heart beat. As much as the taro drink at boba bliss was good, the taro itself is way too bland. Not sure if the sugar content isn't enough or if there's just too much milk. The taro drink is caffeine free as it's really just taro milk, but I do wish the taro flavor is much stronger. That said, I do appreciate the fact you can adjust/customize drinks by the amount of sugar vs ice. Though...I put mine at regular sugar and 0% ice and it was still bland. Some of their drinks seem interesting, but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way for it I guess. read more

Decent oolong tea with cream. The flavor profile was pretty good and they did as recommended with light ice and no sugar. The why the three stars? Customer service was awful. I was asking them about the black tea versus the oolong tea and the new golden honey tea and I really wanted to know the difference so that I could make an informed decision. The answer was always, "I don't know," and she would roll her eyes and ask what I wanted to buy. So much for any help. Improve on your customer service and knowledge and this would be 4 stars. read more

My roommate put me on Teaspoon, as it's been her favorite for a long time. When I finally tried it, I totally understood where she was coming from. Teaspoon, although they have a limited menu, is the mecca of all boba places. Their menu is so artfully balanced with refreshing, fruity drinks and rich, fragrant milk teas. My favorite is the Grasshopper, which is a green tea with cucumber juice. During times when you don't particularly feel like being weighed down by a heavy milk drink, the Grasshopper is a wonderful refresher. I've also tried the paradise lime, which is delicious as well. My sister's favorite is their Liquid Gold, which I believe is one of their best-sellers. It's a classic milk tea, smooth and creamy in all the right places. The boba is also always chewy, sweet, and fresh! My family has patronized Teaspoon waaayyy too often in recent days......but there's no such thing as too much boba, right? read more

Cute spot for boba tea after eating delicious Korean food at Daeho! They have such creative drinks- I had the caramel milk tea with crushed Oreo and boba, it was really good- more like a creamy caramel milk dessert, not overly too sweet. My friend got the guava sunset, it was so refreshing! She got it 0% sweet and it was still sweet with strong guava flavor. It's a cute spot, and priced reasonably well. read more

[Covid Review] We ordered gingerbread latte and milk tea through the app. We waited about 15 minutes after ordering. The drinks were good and not too sweet per our request.

As a self-acclaimed "boba snob" I can confidently say this place is one of the best!! They offer some of the best and most unique flavors - I always have a hard time deciding what to get when I come here. This particular location has great parking and fast service, even when they are busy (which is most of the time) If you love boba and are in the area, I highly recommend this or any Teaspoon location! read more

I love teaspoon and so does my daughter. One of few boba spots that offer lemonade instead of tea. She always gets strawberry lemonade with heart strawberry jelly. I always get peach tea with classic boba. I like to use the kiosk. So I don't have to explain and the order comes fast. It is small so I normally order and take to go. read more

Teaspoon is still one of my favorite boba shops. Their drink menu is a bit limited but I do like their tea. They have the best Jasmine milk tea from all the boba shops I've tried. I also like their grasshopper, grapefruit, liquid gold, and white grape. I always get my drinks 50% sweet and light ice. The one drink I would stay away from is the passionfruit line. Not a fan of them leaving the seeds in these drinks although they say the seeds are really good for you. Yesterday went for their Panda Pin promotion. Spend $25 get 1 pin, spend $40 get 2 pins. The COVID set up at this location is a bit difficult. They put a table right inside the door and have customers yell across to the workers at the register to place an order. It is really difficult to hear with a mask already, but they also want you to order from about 15 feet away from the register, but then the girl comes over to get your credit card anyways. They could have invested in plexiglass so customers don't have to yell across the shop. Also, it's a very small space near the door, this is where people are ordering and picking up their drinks. They do have the option to order online, but felt that even if you do that you may have to wait in line to pick up your drinks because it really only fits 1 or 2 people where they have the set up. The service was ok, I had to ask the girl for the gift card I bought and ask for my pins. She did know how to ring everything up though and they were pretty quick to get orders out. read more

Teaspoon has always been an easy go to for me because it is consistent. The staff has always been nice, fast, and consistent. My go to drink here is the liquid gold with boba (less ice, half sweet). I also appreciate that they use compostable bamboo straws. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because I do feel like it is on the pricier end for boba since they charge an additional 50 cents for boba. A lot of places do that but paying almost $6 for boba is a bit rough. read more

A bit surprised the store is quiet in a Sunday afternoon, maybe because there are just so many new ones around. read more

Review for my visit on 1/7/2023 Teaspoon is one of those boba chains that I really enjoy going to just for that one drink that they do so well that no where else even comes close to! I really enjoy their taro lover drink with the real taro bits at the bottom. Over the past couple of years that drink has consistently been the best thing I've ever had and its an item thats on their menu year round so theres never a worry that it will disappear. During my last visit I was adventurous and I decided to try their Dirty ube which is a Coconut infused Ube with organic coffee and organic milk. I dont know what happen but I could not taste much of the Ube coconut or coffee at all, it just tasted like a chocolate milk and I kept the drink at 100% sweetness too, but it was lacking a lot of flavor for me. My recommendation if you ever go to Teaspoon is try their taro lover, I will always support teaspoon through that drink alone haha. Maybe it was an off day or dependent on the location, but their dirty ube did me dirty that night haha. I hope my review helps you guys make a delicious decision! read more

I have a problem. I am a boba addict. 1. Stare at menu and look at pics to help decide what your tongue desires. 2. Check in with 5 stars app so you can jump for joy with free boba when you have climed that hill. 3. Order drink sweetness and ice. 4. Try samples by register while you wait. 5. Stick straw in drink. 6. Take yelp photo and enjoy. 7. LIQUID GOLD: oolong with cream. 25% sweet, I could have done 50% but i thought would be too sweet. Mild tasting tea. 8. GRAPEFRUIT TEA: this is VERY sweet!! I put this to 0 sweet because the juice is already sweet. Good for summer heat! Next up: white grape oolong! Tried a sample now I want. Tip: parking plenty.
