I stopped by this place to try the Mango Snow and I was really surprised. It had a very soft and creamy texture, with a natural mango flavor that was not excessively sweet. Perfect for a hot day. The service was friendly and fast, and the menu has quite a variety of drinks, milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies and even crepes, so I definitely want to come back to try more things read more

Unfortunately their taro tea did not meet my liking.... Syrup or whatever they use to sweeten the tea tasted chemically and taro was not that great. Service was nice but the taro tea didn't meet my expectation read more

This is a tiny boba spot in Sequoia Station next to where Site for Sore Eyes used to be. You order with a cashier who is behind a plastic wall. There is no seating and only about two or three customers can fit inside, but there is plenty of parking. The milk tea is ok, and pretty artificially flavored. I ordered the honeydew milk tea with boba and probably won't come back, but it's good to know this place is here. read more

I love this spot! I came here after going to the UPS store and was craving some boba. I ordered the tiramisu milk tea (one of my favorites from a different spot but it's only seasonal at that shop), when I saw this was an item that stays on the menu - I knew this was going to be a place I stop by frequently haha. The service is a little ehh, they have a huge divider so if someone is in the back? Good luck getting their attention. I would recommend they get a bell maybe or something to let them know a customer walked into the store. Onto the boba: The boba texture was perfectly chewy, milk tea wasn't too sweet (50% was perfect for me). I will definitely be back! read more

We had a wonderful teatime at Tea Time in Palo Alto. Host Tim and his wife are so welcoming and cordial. They have an amazing variety of tease to choose from and serve delicious food to go with it. We will definitely come back! read more

Not bad! Peach mango black tea 8/10 - I will definitely opt for 75% sugar in the future - ok tea flavor and they definitely go heavy on the peach and mango syrup - great value! Jasmine milk tea 8/10 - very milky and creamy not so much tea but I don't mind it - it's very desserty and not as refreshing but I don't mind it - childhood milky flavor Overall, it's a hole in the wall with no seating. 2 baristas are there so if there's a line drinks will definitely take a while. Nothing much to say about the service but the drinks came out pretty decently fast. I would come back! read more

2.5 stars. Craving boba all week, Mom and I made a quick stop at Teatime on the afternoon of Saturday, August 26, 2023. Located in Redwood City's Sequoia Station, there is plenty of parking for patrons in the lot. As we walked up to the tea spot, I thought that there was a long line out their door. Upon arrival, though, we realized that the people loitering around the shop were the customers awaiting their drink orders. The venue is TINY. Maximum capacity for the room wherein you place your order can't be more than half a dozen persons (this explains why everyone was standing around outside). This place is solely for to-go orders as there is no seating available for eating and drinking. Printed 8" x 11" sheets of paper are taped to the wall to serve as the menu and jars along the clear window showcase most of the drink toppings (grass jelly was not shown anywhere). Mom ordered a Taro Milk Tea with boba which, to our surprise, was made from a powder and was completely dairy free. I ordered a Jasmine Milk Tea topped with boba and grass jelly. When I asked if they had oat milk, the dairy free milk was recommended for a better, more full-bodied drink, so I happily went with the suggestion. Our drinks were made very quickly. At first sip, we both noticed that the beverages were on the sweet side...which is when I realized that we weren't asked about preferred sweetness nor ice levels. After a few sips, I got used to the sweetness level, but did wish for a stronger Jasmine floral taste. The boba were perfectly chewy, though, so my craving was satisfied. Will we return? Sure, if we are already at the Sequoia Station and craving boba again. I wouldn't drive out specifically to go here, though. read more

Great local boba shop. I like to go here if in the area. It's a no frills location. Put in your order, wait and it's ready. Parking lot is free. I can't remember what I've ordered, but all has been passing. read more

My mom came here a little while ago saying it was her new favorite but I came with her this time and tried a taro milk tea. The initial flavor is good but it tastes pretty watery and she said hers isn't as good this time so probably not very consistent. The shop is really tiny, you just walk up to the window to order, no seating or anything so it's good if you're just coming to pick up quickly read more

A pretty good place to get a refreshing Watermelon Fruit Freeze! I got mine with boba AND rainbow jelly. I always order something similar at every boba-type place so that I can compare them. Then I venture out to the bubble tea varieties, etc. This is a small walk-up window-type place, but I will come back again. Tea Time is nestled in the corner of the Sequoia Station Shopping Center. It is kind of weird that it does not come up on Yelp as the first choice even when I am literally in front of it. I always seem to get the Palo Alto location. The drinks can at times take longer than expected for a drink so it does miss a star for that. Employees don't seem very happy to be there nor do they display any smiling for the customers. read more

Not bad , I was quenching my thirst and this place hit the spot . I love the vibe here.

Stopped by Teatime the other day while picking something up at the nearby Safeway located in the same plaza. Found this place on Yelp, and discovered that it's rather hidden all the way at the corner of the shopping complex, on the side opposite of Safeway. The store itself is very small, so you basically wait in line outside while 1 person goes in, orders, and steps back out to wait for their order. The staff was very friendly, and I opted for my usual Passion Fruit w/ Green Tea and boba. The drink itself definitely did not disappoint, and was very refreshing and full of flavor. The boba balls themselves were nice and chewy, and not all clumped together like at some other places. Although I don't live near RWC, if I'm ever back in the area, I will definitely make sure to make a stop at Teatime! read more

Ordered a classic black milk tea with boba, no adjustments. Super sweet, but that's how I like my boba! It's a super tiny storefront (can fit one party at a time at most), and their menu is smaller than most other shops I've been to. I like to get drinks that are "special" to that particular store, but Teatime didn't seem to have any drinks like that. Definitely worth coming back if I'm in the area, but not a place I'd go out of my way to get boba from. Maybe if they had a unique pitch or drink. As a local stop, it's a 5/5; for non-locals, I'm sure the boba shops in your area are just as good. read more

It's a tasty boba spot with unique flavors. Recently they've been making their drinks on the sweater side even when ask with 0% sugar. Their drink with fresh fruits are excellent. Service is pretty fast when ordering and receiving a drink. Excited to try other flavors next time. Note it's at Sequoia Station and it is a to-go only spot, so no place to sit. read more

Got the guava green tea here. Good fruit flavor but the tea could have been a little more strong. The tiramisu tea is also good. Definitely more dessert than tea. read more

Teatime - Guava green tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Redwood City, California

My favorite boba spot !! They have everything here from classic milk teas to, green teas, fruit teas, fruit freezes and unique drinks. My all time favorite is the horchata snow but I don't like anything too sweet so I get 25% sweetness with aloe and boba they have like 12 different options of jelly's. Service is great but this place tends to get busy and typically only two staff are working at once so if you see line expect to wait a few minutes. Also it's a very small place there's no seating it's just a walk through to go atmosphere. I went today and ordered the horchata snow and the strawberry freeze both equally great and I had my drinks within 5 min of ordering. Be patient when they are busy its worth it if you want to enjoy some delicious boba tea ! read more

I called and ordered a peach fruit freeze which has now climbed to $6.95. Arrived within 2 minutes to find the woman away from register preparing a smoothie matching the description of what I had ordered. After she made another another money payment transaction I presented for my order and without bothering to change her gloves she quickly presented the smoothie I saw her make. I requested that she make a new one much to her dismay. She mumbled something about "why do you come here." I than told her that it is very unsanitary for her to handle multiple money & card transactions then touch and prepare beverages with the same gloves all day without changing them. Folks sanitation is going to be a real important thing in the coming months. Bad sanitation brings bad things. read more

This is a small boba milk tea place in sequoia station. You just walk in and order. There's no place to sit. I ordered the mango milk tea with 50% sweetness and light ice. It was actually better than I expected. It was under $6 (which seems about right). I think I'll go back to try other flavors. read more

It's my favorite place to get boba drinks in the Bay Area & I've had a lot haha I've had some of their other teas as well and they're tasty! They also have a stamp card so for every 10 drinks you buy you get one free! :) You just have to ask for one. read more

Love their boba milky tea. Tasted just like I remember tasting it when I lived in Taiwan.

Teatime is located in the Sequoia Station plaza. It is a slightly busy plaza, but there is plenty of parking here. Service was eh, the employee did not look happy to be there. I was the only customer here, so the drinks came out in a decent amount of time. I ordered the jasmine milk tea with boba. It was a bit on the creamier side with not much tea taste to it (which does not live up to their name). The drink tasted a bit artificial/powdery and there was way too much ice in the drink. read more

The best Thai tea I've ever had. I drink it almost once a week ( I don't drink coffee so this is my caffeine). The service is always friendly, the drinks are almost always ready in less than 10 minutes (usually 5), and every drink I've had has been good. read more

My daughter likes this place a lot. It's similar to chatime in Canada (probably is) and since there is no longer chatime here in the states, this is the next best thing until we go back home to Canada. We ordered mango qq, peach qq, mango coconut drink and a strawberry crepe. All quite good. Only thing was there was only one worker making everything and we felt bad because he looked overwhelmed with all the orders coming in. We were willing to wait and it was well worth it. Will be coming back but hopefully this worker will have an extra pair of hands. read more

Went on whim since I was in the area and was craving boba. I ordered the strawberry milk with boba. The lady that took my order barely spoke a word to me and didn't even bother to ask my sweetness or ice level. I paid for my drink using Apple Pay and I hadn't notice the tip screen came on, a few seconds later I noticed and as I leaned in to put in my tip amount, she quickly grabbed the monitor and I wasn't able to put an amount in. I thought to myself maybe she didn't care for the tip and I didn't worry about it. I see in the back she quickly prepared my drink and handed it to me. I leave, get to my destination as I was a bit in a hurry and don't try it until then and I take a sip and it was so gross!! It tasted like flavored tap water with a very strong tap water taste. Literally did not even taste like strawberries. I was so disappointed I had paid for something that tasted like flavored toilet water, which the boba didn't even make it taste any better and to top it off I checked my transactions and she had tipped herself! Such a terrible experience never wasting my money there again. read more

BEST. MANGO. SAGO. DRINK. IN. THE. BAY. AREA. I've been here like a dozen times, and will recommend it 10x over. I love it so much. More people need to know about this and how it compares to the famous aqua dessert place in san mateo... there is no comparison. This place is legit, and you won't get those long lines either. The GOOD: - Parking, huge parking lot right outside - Outdoor/ doggy seating, there are a couple tables inside/ outside w/ chairs for you to sit - Taste is king here, I've also enjoyed their rose, jasmine, and mango milk teas as well!! BUT MANGO SAGO FTWWWWW - Prices are fair The MEH: - When there is a line, it's hard to see where it starts/ end. So if you do see a line, definitely ask everyone to see if they are waiting in it lol. - Tables are a little jiggly and small, so don't expect to study here haha read more

This place is a hidden find! There's bobalicious and teaspoon nearby but this place is a lot better. I got drinks here three days in a row. The third day I saw them changing the menu with updated prices. I've tried their jasmine and oolong milk tea and both are great. You can actually taste the tea (*ahem calling you out teaspoon). Despite the price increase, this will be my new go to milk tea spot. read more

Teatime is located in Sequoia Station in Redwood City. I'd been meaning to try this place out. So when I went to Barnes & Noble nearby, I finally had the chance. It was hot, and I decided to get Bubble Snow instead of Tea. The staff were patient and friendly as I looked over the menu. I decided on Peach Passion Fruit Bubble Snow with Boba. The wait was short, and I got my drink. It cooled me off, and it was refreshing. If I'm ever in the neighborhood again, I'll have to make a return visit. read more

Five stars for the Drinks and boba. Boba was really good texture and drinks had fresh fruit and not too sweet. I was slightly disappointed tho hear that the grape fruit tea was discontinued and they will no longer be coming back (it was the main reason why I decided to go to tea time that day, but I am happy I got to try other drinks) Gentlemen behind the counter was nice and helpful, he helped he choose my drinks! made them in good timing, I didn't wait long! (Although he seemed like he wasn't having too much fun working his mood did light up when I received my drink thanked him and said "have a nice day", just remember always thank people. You never know when you might change someone's day!) I think they may have changed owners recently, I'm a first timer so I wouldn't know. Definitely recommend the owners to change the banners since they no longer have the grape fruit tea anymore maybe just hopefully this review will have them consider bringing it back? If they do someone please tell me lol read more

we arrived with 2 parties before us. our orders took a seemingly long time with two girls working the shop. three other parties came and ordered while we watched drinks pile up on the counter. finally we started going in asking for our orders. but they hadn't given us receipts or number to confirm that the right drinks were being given out to the right people. i hoped that the tea and boba would be impressive to make up for the lackluster first impression. but no, the roasted milk was bland and the regular brown bobas were starchy and bland as well. the crystal boba and peach bubble tea were average. read more
