    Came here to play mahjong with friends. Ordered their fries, mochi cookie, and some drinks. Staff was friendly and was quick to assist issues. There werent that many people, so it was an okay environment. My only issue was not being able to use the paper towel dispenser in the bathroom. It was broken. I let the staff know, but idk if it got fixed after that.

    Thirsty Waters was one of the vendors at the Sony Pro Support events, and their friendliness, as well as the great drinks, turned me into a fan. I loved the tart sweetness of the butterfly pea flower drink, as well as the strong tea flavor of the classic thai tea. I hope to come by the actual shop and try more of their drinks soon.

    This place has been on my list for a while to try. It's not too far from my house, but the big push was their collaboration of Godzilla with them. My Son is a huge Godzilla fan so of course had to go check it out. Outside on the windows were pictures of Godzilla. They had their menu out of what their specialty for that was went in. It was decorated throughout with Godzilla decor Mothra other characters. Very creative loved the drinks and the cookie was so good! I would definitely go back to try the other regular items they have Service was great very friendly It was clean ,loved the vibe , so many places to sit and enjoy your items

    Brown Sugar Fresh Milk

    Thirsty Waters is a tea shop. They have pure teas, fruit teas, lemonades, milk teas, fresh milk, and some Tokyo street food. They also have Vietnamese coffee and matcha. I ordered the Brown Sugar Fresh Milk. It was excellent. Perfect balance of brown sugar and fresh milk. Lots of brown sugar flavor throughout the drink which i thoroughly enjoyed. The brown sugar flavor was rich and sweet. It came with boba which wasn't what I ordered. Still, the boba had perfect texture as it was soft, gummy, and chewy. Service was great. Was greeted upon entry. Cashiers were friendly. They asked if i wanted a sample to which I declined. I didn't want boba in my drink so I asked if I was able to order it without on the tablet. They said unless I chose the option to add boba, I wouldn't get boba. I didn't specify I wanted boba on the order but they still put it in anyway. I was behind two behind people that ordered and left once they received their drinks. Spacious inside the establishment. It was well-ventilated. Tables are spaced aqaduately. There's counter seating, some tables with chairs, and some sofas with tables. They had Demon Slayer merchandise and Tokidoki merchandise in the corner of the shop. On the right side near the counter, is a brightly lit LCD and colorful menu screen with pictures of menu items Depending on the depth of your car cup holder, they may or may not be cup-holder friendly. As in they do fit however but because the cups are a bit tall, some turns can cause drink to topple over. I enjoyed the Brown Sugar Fresh Milk. I only wished the order came out how I specified but otherwise it was still exceptional. Will come back for another visit!

    A legit tea spot that willl quench any thirst. Good place to get some work done , as they offer wifi. They even got snacks/apps if you get hungry. we tried the truffle parm and thought it was good. Location isn't the largest but they got a good amount of seats for the size. Parking is shared with other stores around the area.

    I had a good experience at Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights). I ordered the Roasted Barley Milk Tea ($6.49 - Perfect Sweet - Perfect Ice) with Brown Sugar Boba (additional 99 cents). It's described as a nutty, roasted grain with warm popcorn notes. (Important: Cash is not accepted. This is a cashless location.) I arrived at Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights) on Monday (around 11:05AM - Near Opening Time). Parking is very easy. The lot is big. It shares the Stater Bros Market's plaza. When I'd arrived, Staff informed me that there would be a 10 minute wait for boba. So I used that time to explore and admire the location. Staff is very professional, charming, and helpful. Staff happily answered all my questions, and Staff maintained a bright, cheery demeanor. At 11:15AM, I used the self-service kiosk to make my order. My drink took two minutes and 30 seconds. Very fast! As mentioned, I ordered the Roasted Barley Milk Tea ($6.49 - Perfect Sweet - Perfect Ice) with Brown Sugar Boba (additional 99 cents). To my immense satisfaction, I tasted thoughtful flavors. There were moments where the drink reminded me of the famous Popcorn Milk Tea from Torotea. Unfortunately, this drink tasted a little diluted & watery. The delicious, fresh popcorn taste was present, but it's very faint. Concerning the boba, it felt fairly standard. I appreciated the boba's bounce and playfulness. Regarding ambiance, Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights) is a solid study/work spot. Although I counted only two electrical outlets, this business offers Power Stations for customers' devices. Woah!! There's also customer internet with password; the information is taped onto the side, but customers can find the info by talking to Staff. There's also a gender neutral restroom in the back. I especially loved the animated, energetic, and cheerful music; this music felt like Nintendo background music. The location felt fairly spacious and well-ventilated. There's five tables and one long counter. If I were to nitpick, some parts of the wall looked chipped. Also, there's tiny pieces of unswept trash in the corners. Regardless, Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights) felt very clean and welcoming. Overall, I enjoyed my visit to Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights). The drink is refreshing; Staff is exceedingly welcoming; and the location has genuine utility. If searching for a pleasant study/work spot, I recommend Thirsty Waters (Rowland Heights). 4.6 out of 5

    Garlic Parmesan Truffle Fries
    Tiffany H.

    Tried their ube strawberry milk and omg it's so good! You can tell it's made with quality ingredients and it doesn't just taste like flavored milk. Consistency is pretty thick, which I like a lot. I also ordered the parmesan fries and it's a pretty portion. Fries are thin sliced, which are my fav. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area and would recommend if you're in the area! Ordering was super easy - self order on a kiosk. Staff was friendly greeting and saying thank you, goodbye.

    Super cute place! We were picking up food in the area - I need Asian eats even when I'm traveling- and Rowland Heights is the spot! We just got into town from SF on a Wednesday night. A good boba after sitting in that LA traffic was just what needed. It was just before 7pm. There was no one in there except for a guy with a laptop standing at the counter ledge by the window. There is a good amount of space to chill between tables and a lounge chair area. (Many of my go-to spots in SF don't have this much seating -if any at all.) Unfortunately, we didn't stay to enjoy it, as we had to get to get back on the road. The drink menu is pretty clear and fairly simple, but had all the essentials and enough variety for everyone. There is a large self ordering screen, but someone did come out when I had a question. I had the Strawberry Dream with matcha cold foam (delish and pretty in presentation). My daughter had the Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea. Both drinks were ordered with boba (good flavor and consistency). I'd love to come back when I'm in the area again.

    Probably some of the best tea I've had for a boba place! I came here for a special event, and ended up trying two drinks. The Roasted Barley Milk Tea & The Phoenix Oolong Milk tea are must tries! The workers and owners here are very friendly! The establishment itself is very spacious, new, and clean. They even have a selection of fries here if you want a snack while hanging out! Definitely give them a try, and support a local business.

    It's our second time here after having korean bbq. Service was excellent and was very informative on the drinks. It was almost closing time and the place was nice and clean. The boba was perfectly nice and soft to chew Great spot to hang out and plenty of parking

    Gyokuro Milk Tea & Lychee Peach Sunrise Lemonade
    Flora A.

    I'd first heard about Thirsty Waters when they did a Demon Slayer pop-up at Anime Expo, so when my friends and I were in the area, I knew I had to check it out! When we walked in, we were offered a welcome drink (I think it was a chrysanthemum tea?) -- not really my taste since it leaned a little too floral, but still a nice touch. I ended up ordering the gyokuro milk tea instead, and wow -- it was rich, well-rounded, and honestly one of the best milk teas I've had. The space itself was really nice: clean, bright, and plenty of tables to sit at. There's even a claw machine by the menu for some extra fun. They did also sell some blind boxes at the front! Also, random detail, but the bathroom was spotless and stocked with 2-ply toilet paper -- little things like that go a long way! If I'm back in the area, I'd definitely stop by again

    Chrysanthemum Tea
    Anissa M.

    Thirsty Waters is located in the same plaza as Stater Bros, and replacing the same space where Sharetea used to be. I ordered the chrysanthemum tea, no adjustments. Very mild chrysanthemum flavor then what I'm typically used to, but still a nice refreshing treat after a solid hot pot dinner. Our group was pretty big (7-8 individual orders) so I appreciate that the service was quick and friendly! If I'm in this plaza again, maybe I'll try another drink off their menu.

    這一家在牡丹旁邊的飲料店,其實已經看過很多次了,因為我常常去牡丹吃飯,這次決定給他一個機會來試看看 結果拿起來喝的第一口茶香還蠻濃的呢,看得出來他們有很多色彩繽紛的飲料,但是我還是就選擇最簡單的桂花烏龍茶好了,其實以前在天仁茗茶我最常喝的就是桂花烏龍,現在茶店百家林立,這一家的茶味比我想像還好喝,裡面還有在賣Labubu 呢!

    Man I'm trying to look good for summer, but this drink makes it so difficult. I've been going here…read morewith my friends for a little while now since it's open late and has plenty of seating. It's a good spot to end the night after a satisfying meal. I will say, it gets super busy and you might wait a minute for your drink. But that's expected. Taro slush, 9.5/10: Probably the best taro drink I've ever had. Gotta go no toppings. Watch the carbs. Not too sweet. It's perfectly smooth and creamy. The natural sweetness and subtle earthiness from the taro really comes through. I was actually surprised. The ice is blended very finely, but it's also not chunky. It seems simple, but hard to do right. Ngl, they did their thing with this one.

    I normally don't leave bad reviews unless it's a repeated issue, or at least not on my first…read moreexperience, but I feel like Summerfield really dropped the ball tonight. I only allow myself one cheat meal a week, and while there are plenty of other boba spots I could go to, my kids specifically love your fries. There was an unusually long line around 8:30 PM, but we waited anyway. By the time we ordered, the kitchen was closed, so no fries, my kids were pretty disappointed. We ended up just getting boba drinks, but unfortunately the boba pearls were severely undercooked and extremely hard. It made the drinks unpleasant to drink, and I ended up throwing mine away because the boba is the whole point of milk tea. What made it more frustrating is that your phone line doesn't even work, so there's no way to call and let management know directly. The only way to bring attention to the issue is by leaving a review. I understand busy nights happen, but if the drinks can't be made consistently or the boba isn't ready, it's probably better not to serve them at all. At the very least let the customer know that the boba is not ready or no bobas available.
