They not gonna be guaranteed with the broken carry box. Thanks read more

Tisane - Melons rouge - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

location & parking: located in a big plaza shared with safeway and innout. you'll likely have no issues finding parking in their huge shared lot! if you've never been here, this is that one boba spot that has night club energy because of the decor and crowd, but all in all, is just a little boba shop! food & drinks: we ordered a green panda tea and a blush tea -- both are so fragrant in flavor! sweet, smooth, rich, and honestly super yummy. service: came on a saturday night and it was moderately busy, we waited in line that lead out the door for maybe 5-10 minutes. staff are fast and nice :) you can also self order with card on their kiosk machine. vibes: the ambiance is super cool. it feels like a night club, but also just a nice chill place to hang. the store is pretty dark with some neon lights and ambiance lighting. there are both indoor seating and outdoor seating. note: tisane is definitely where all of the young cool kids go hahaha definitely a popular hub for abgs & abbs XD but on the real tho, the drinks are really good and i would def come back for them overall: 5/5 star for vibes, drinks, & overall experience! read more

A little disappointed because i asked for brown sugar boba and it came with "no boba". Left without checking so I could not ask to get it fixed. besides that the boba is so good and their teas are good! I got the dew berrymore and tiger king. Tiger king is milky but soooo good! If you want more of a green tea taste (which I love), go with dew berrymore! Will come back! read more

my go to here are the golden especially & gram brûlée, blush, sugar hill, or dew berrymore! i am more of a milk tea person, so these are my fav milk teas from here. i usu get 0% sugar & there's still a sweetness to them, but it's not too sweet! they always go all out w/ their christmas decorations & tisane is a good place to hang out to catch up w/ friends & grab boba :) nice & fast service, always have to recommend this boba shop for anyone visiting the bay! read more

Tisane - golden & blush - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Unlike any other boba place tbh. While they have raised their prices considerably in the past 4 years, their quality is still strong. Always ordered pickup via DoorDash, and I don't know how they do it, but it's done in a minute or two. Hot Take, but still don't like the vibe in-store. Feels like some karaoke bar with the bass cranked with a handle. But I can't deny that it's a unique look compared to your Happy Lemon's, TP-Tea's, & Tastea's. Also idk why there's still a "Limited" section for drinks when those drinks have existed for years now. Maybe some FOMO tactic who knows. I'll probably order some more drinks this weekend. BAE-Nana hits. every. time. read more

I noticed this boba place when we were waiting in the super long drive thru at In-n-Out lol. I hopped out of the car and was able to run to Tisane, order, pick up the drinks, and meet my husband back in his car, still in the drive thru. The place is seriously like a club with super loud music and darkness. I'm way too old for that, and I'm probably way too old for boba, but I can't help myself. I got the bae-nana (banana milk tea with black jelly) and it was delicious! It truly hit the spot since I was craving banana milk and milk tea. They seem to have a wide variety of interesting drink selections and I want to go back and try some more. My husband got the GTA (green Thai milk tea with salted crema) with lychee bits. I liked how it had fresh lychee instead of lychee jelly. read more

You're one in MELON! I finally made it back! I haven't been to Tisane since before the pandemic began! Tisane never disappoints! I love all of the drinks I've tried so far! Kiwi to My Heart 9/10 Melon Rouge 10/10 Duke To Earl 9/10 My fav drinks here are Melon Rouge and Duke of Earl! Both refreshing! I love how I don't need to adjust my sweetness because it's already less sweet! Kiwi to My Heart is a new drink and I would have to say it's one of my favorites too! It's has a citrusy, sour taste but also a light sweetness of strawberry when drinking it! read more

I asked for no jelly stars in my order. They gave me no jelly stars, but thats only because they crushed it up thinking i wouldn't find out about it or taste it. The ambiance is alright, I like the dark and chill aesthetic, what I don't like is that they got my order wrong. read more

Love their drinks! I typically get blush or the green panda with crystal boba. The only downside is their ice level! 50% is default but I get 25% and it's always a ton of ice. Pics don't lie lol... it's like 3/4 of my cup usually! So if you truly like less ice, get 0% and add it yourself. Anyway the line is always long after 9 on any given day and parking is always a femdog since In-n-Out is there too, but the drinks (minus the ice!) are worth it and it really doesn't take that long. read more

Tisane - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Tisane is a boba joint that people in the Bay Area that have definitely heard of, no matter where you're at. The service was standard but I just want to get into the drink. I got the BAE-nana and honestly it was pretty deliciousz. You can definitely taste the banana milk taste and also you do not need to have such a high amount (or no amount) of sugar for this drink. Even though I got less sugar, I thought it was still on the sweet side. I also got boba as an add on and I thought the boba was a bit hard, which was mainly why I took a star off. Other than that, the banana milk is great but the sugar should be less sweet if you want to get swarmed with sugar in your mouth. read more

Cute Girls that work the cashier. 1st time trying the Green Pandan. I really like it, and the sweetness of it. Just the craving for sweetness I like. I highly recommend it! read more

Great selection of various flavors. And the boba is really nice quality as well. Come back every time I'm in town!

I love boba and this hits the spot. I needed my boba fix. My usual from Tisane is the Duke of Earl. The ride and Thai are very good as well. You can order through the cashier or the do-it-yourself cash register. The worker went to check up on me if I needed help because I was using the cash register. It was kind of dim for me because I can't see it as well but that could just be me. The inside is always amazing. They change it every big holiday. Right now, it is Valentine's theme which is really cute. You must visit here when you have a chance. It is worth your time!!!!! read more

Tisane - Duke of Earl Tea and Ride and Thai tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Tisane used to be so good but now I'm always left disappointed. Drinks are overbearingly sweet and you can barely taste the tea, even if i get 25% sweet. Boba is always inconsistent. My drink today had half chewy boba and the other half hard. The only thing good left is the decorations/ambiance. read more

Still my all-time favorite spot in the South Bay & I've tried a lot of boba places. :) Today I ordered a Golden (50% sweetness sub honey boba) + Sea Salt Crema. I had not tried their salted cheese yet. It has a mild flavor. It's not very thick & is more whipped. Personally, I prefer the salted cheese made by Happy Lemon but the teas & boba from Tisane. :) read more

Tisane is a nice little spot when everything is closed by 10 or 11 pm (they are opened until midnight every day). It can get pretty packed here, since not many boba spots opened late night, but I feel like the line goes by quickly even when they are busy. I tried a mixed of fruit teas and milk teas. I tried their Dew Berrymore, Barney and Fruits, Blush, Golden, Two To Mango, RPM, Ride or Thai, and Jasmine Milk Tea. My favorite was their Two to Mango with boba instead of the mango jelly stars that come with it. If I am back next time, I will try either their BAE-Nana or their salted cheese creama. read more

I go here for 2 of their drinks: The Bae-Nana and the Blush. The Bae-Nana is my go-to order and the only drink I ever order here after literally trying everything on their menu. It is a Jasmine tea with banana flavored milk and their house made grass jelly. I get it 75% sweet, regular ice and I do not add boba. This drink is THE drink if you love banana milk. I haven't found a boba shop anywhere in the bay area that makes this drink even half as good! Most of the time, other places use a banana flavoring syrup to put into their milk tea which makes it overly sweet and have a very strong altricial banana taste, but Tisane makes it perfect without making it overly sweet or having that strong altricial after taste while still tasting like jasmine milk tea. The House made grass jelly perfectly balances the flavors, but if your big on texture with your drink, you might want to opt out of this and replace it with boba. Blush was my old go-to drink before I decided to try the Bae-Nana. My daughter LOVES this drink and this is the only place that "makes it right" according to her. We've tried ordering something similar at other places, but it never taste the same. There a balance between the tea and the strawberry flavoring. Their drinks are very consistent and the employees get the drinks made FAST even though the line is usually out the door (not to mention they do get a lot of Doordash/ Uber Eats orders). The majority of their drinks are customizable so you can change the level of sweetness to your preference. They're other drinks are pretty good too, it's just that me and my daughter found OUR drinks and refuse to get anything else here (lol). 10 our of 10 would recommend this place! read more

Love love love Tisane. The boba is so good and the vibe is also great. The line can be long but they give you your drink really quickly. Definitely worth the wait! read more

Not an avid boba drinker, but the blush pink drink they have is highly addicting. I ordered this for the first time and the refreshing sweetness blew me away. They also include cute strawberry heart gelatins, for added flair and aesthetic. I've gotten it multiple times and one other drink last time and it has never failed me. They are very good at practicing social distancing rules during this time and have only one person at a time in the restaurant to order. If you go at night be prepared to see a ton of teenagers showing off their horrifically modified cars in the parking lot and being really loud. It's fun to watch though the parking lot is very lively as well because of the in and out. read more

It's my third time drinking Tisane, and I feel like I may have gotten a wrong sugar level. Their 50% sweet has a strong tea flavor and I wasn't expecting that so I was a but thrown off. Rating it only 4 stars because of that experience but otherwise, I liked the drink overall! If you get Sugar Hill, maybe the 80% sweet should be good for those that like it less sweet! read more

Always a great spot for boba whenever I'm back in San Jose! My friends and I ordered an assortment of drinks, and they were very quick to come out. I love how you can substitute any of the toppings with any of the other ones free of charge. My friends and I ordered the following: - Green Panda - Snow White - RPM - Lychee Ice All our drinks are great, and definitely a solid spot for milk and fruit teas. read more

My friend said that he liked this place, so we came here to get some drinks. The line was long, and it was on the expensive side, well more expensive than the generic chain boba places like T4. But honestly, I didn't really see the hype. Ride or Thai- This drink was the most opaque drink I have ever seen. The tea was okay, I would have appreciated more tea flavor and this was more on the sweet side. I didn't like the crystal boba with this drink, I would have liked regular boba with it a lot more. I wouldn't recommend this drink as I had better Thai milk tea before elsewhere. Purple Silk- This drink I actually enjoyed. It was SILKY just like it's name. It was so smooth and it had a great taro flavor, would 10/10 get again. BUT AGAIN, this was very sweet, so I would get less sugar if possible for this. Overall, I will come here again for the taro drink, but less sweetness for sure! read more

Tisane - Ride or Thai - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

It was my first time here, but I've heard all the hype about it. Overall a good experience. Downside is that the parking lot is packed and there will be people waiting in line. I was a bit confused on where to order because there's a mobile pick up station at the front and it made us think that we had to order online, but you are actually able to order inside after passing the blindspot. There should be a clearer sign to identify that. Ordering was fast as well as getting the drinks. I got the melon rogue and should've gotten less sweet. The flavors were good though. read more

Tisane - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

This is probably our most favorite tea/boba spot in San Jose. Admittedly, there were times we would go here weekly. We have since curtailed our weekly habits to more bi-weekly, but whenever we are craving tea, Tisane is the place to go. Our go-to drinks are the BAE-Nana, Barney and Fruits (substitute the mandarin oranges with Lychee Jelly), Green Panda, Melon Rouge or Two to Mango. Ambiance is pretty good - they have loud EDM music blasting on the speakers, and sometimes the TV's music video accompanies the speakers. There are three large U-shaped leather couches to lounge on inside. At times could be dark with neon lights too. On weekend nights there are frequently lines out the door, but the wait for the drinks are not too long. The menu does not change too much, but occasionally there are new drinks which are not necessary found on the overhead menus. Also, if you have a phone number, give it to the cashier to start earning points towards free drinks or other discounts. read more

Consistently delicious boba in the Bay Area. A classic San Jose spot, that has amazing milk teas, and delicious pearls.

The drink was good but the service charge sucked. Why not add a processing fee for that service charge too? If this is to offset the cost of higher wages, raise the price instead of adding a service charge. read more

I finally visited Tisane in SJ! When I saw they have these adorable Christmas decorations right now I knew this was my sign to finally go check it out! I came in with my friend shortly after they opened and they quickly took our order and made are drinks! The drinks were photogenic as well as the Christmas display they have for the holidays! I got the Tiger King drink and loved it, definitely a great Brown Sugar drink, I'd try it again! My friend really enjoyed her drink as well! Such a cute spot to take pictures at as well for the holidays, they have giant mirrors on the wall making it easy to take mirror selfies! It was very clean and lots of large spacious seating as well. It kinda reminds me of a smaller nightclub setup but for boba and Christmas. They had good music playing too! Will definitely come back! Love that it's open late night as well, all the way til 12pm. read more

I'm always ordering through doordash from Tisane for my cravings and the family. I'm addicted to their golden milk tea with sated cheese creama, grass jelly, and homey boba and their pina colada. My brother enjoys their blush regular. My younger brother enjoys their blush with lychee jelly and agar pearls. My sister enjoys their melon rogue and her significant other enjoys the dew berrymore. I'm busy doing xyz, so ordering through doordash is a plus for me. When ordering through the app it's easy to use. The drinks are ready within 10-15 minutes. Dasher picks up and drops off within 30 minutes. Surprisingly when ordering the drinks are still well made and not half arse. Some places you order don't care about mobile order or 3rd party. Like they rush their drinks because they need to take a dump or something, lol. Attached is a photo with some drinks I ordered few nights ago when having game night with the fam bam. read more

Tisane - Here's one mobile order from two days ago. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

How much boba is too much boba for one person? Asking for a friend. I've tried numerous drinks here and I think my top faves are: Barney & fruits -- 10/10 lychee tea w/ orange pieces (similar to bootea shaker at tastea). (No milk) Ghost dragon -- 10/10 not sure if it's named after ghost dragon?? (Who I recently discovered I like his music from 626 night market) Crystal boba?? Has orange slices. Very refreshing! (No milk) Kiwi to my heart -- 10/10 heart jelly sweet tea flavor (no milk) IMO, Barney & fruits & ghost dragon taste the same lol If you're looking for something with milk, green panda -- 8.5/10 tastes like Viet dessert "chè" -- mung bean and pandan flavor. Mango matcha -- 8.5/10 make sure to mix well! The mango bits is really sweet but balance with the matcha is perfect! Great combo! Arknada with boba 8/10 -- cool blend and pretty! creamy brûlée strong matcha flavor w/ rly soft boba!!! Their drinks are on the sweeter side, but you could easily adjust your sweetness level. I like sweet drinks so no problem here heh. I can definitely see myself coming here if I was in the area. read more

This review pertains to DoorDash delivery. They are currently having a promotion for Free Delivery for orders over $15. For 4 drinks ($4.95 each, all come with toppings) + tax and DoorDash fees (about $5) and tip (suggested $5 because I live 30 minutes away), the total comes out to a little under $30. I feel like this price is reasonable due to how far away I live. Typical delivery fee is $4.99. I love their Taro Milk Tea -- I got 75% sweetness. They have a solid sweetness scale that isn't too sweet. The Taro is a decadent and delicious treat! "Green tea oolong milk tea blended with taro" makes for a smooth and richly flavored taro beverage and the whipped creamy topping is to die for. It's too cheesy or heavy (less cheesy than Happy Lemon), it adds an airy, savory layer to your boba drink. This drink is seriously a must-try for taro lovers! I also tried their Wintermelon Blossom at 30%, which was barely sweet (exactly how I like my fruit tea). They have "agar" or clear boba and I enjoyed the texture and subtle brown sugar sweetness. I like that their fruit teas always have a good flavor profile (not watered down or too syrupy like other boba shops). read more

Perfect place to hang out with friends if you're into milk tea. Place is really relaxing and very clean. Good customer service.

My first time trying Tisane! The worker was very kind and she told me a list of the most popular drinks. I got a Two to Mango, 50% sweet, light ice. It was good! Tea was strong and I liked the inclusion of the lychee jelly. I would definitely recommend to get half sugar or less since the jelly inclusions make the drink sweeter. I love how it is decorated very nicely inside for Christmas. I would definitely come back to try other drinks! read more

Tisane - Two 2 to Mango Tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I really don't understand all the hype behind this place.. My wife, my friends, everyone loves this place except me.. I don't know, I tried this place a few times. But the drinks are really mediocre, the service is ok... most of employees there are children and don't really know how costumer service works. I would recommend this business owner to hire some more experienced staff. The vibes are cool though, I like the lounge area.. But I am disappointed about the drinks, I tried so many boba places, and to be honest, most of them are much better than this place. Every time I ordered a drink, it wasn't good.. it was hot Idk really what's the hipe, but whatever read more

FLAVOR (4/5): Tried their Dew Berrymore with honey boba. Their boba is a great consistency! Would definitely ask for less sweet as their full sweetness is really on the sweeter end already. INSTAGRAM WORTHY (4/5): If you're from San Jose you probably know Tisane. It's a recognized boba shop for ABGs. SERVICE (3.5/5): Their cashier did not ask about sweetness or ice levels which I am used to prompting me -- which is a main reason I forgot to change the levels for my drink. You pickup your order when the buzzer goes off. I'm surprised they're using buzzers still during COVID (not sure if they're sanitized after every interaction). TAKE AWAYS: Would try their other drinks on the menu! Lots of seating outside which is a plus, would wish the tables had umbrellas to shade though. read more

Though it looks fairly unassuming, Tisane is a hip and fun boba shop located not too far from Eastridge mall in a little strip mall plaza! They have a wide selection of drinks and a cool interior setup where you'd be able to sit and lounge with friends as you enjoy. The inside has these cool leather couches and ample space to hang out as you drink your teas. The tea itself was also VERY tasty -- honestly the best I've had recently. There are dairy options which are lactose-free (which was a relief for me) as well. I got the Golden, which was a brown sugar house milk tea with agar boba -- I LOVED it! The tea itself was high-quality and the agar boba was different (and really good) from what I was used to. Overall, a great boba place (that sets itself apart from the rest in the Bay)! read more

Tisane - Golden - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I remember the first time this place opened up.. and while I miss the Wing Fiesta that was there years ago, Tisane has been a staple in this shopping plaza. When I walked in that very first time long ago... I got that immediate ambiance that I had experienced many times before.. at Pekoe. Looking up if there was any relation, social media was well informed and was made very apparent that there was. If you don't know, feel free to find out yourself of their history. The crowds are pretty much the same.. and gets crowded as such in the evenings. Tisane scores a bit higher for the location.. but each still has their merits. Either way, solid choices to get some boba. read more

Owners are very welcoming and nice! Was welcomed back January 3, 2020. I met the owners wife, Chi Jennifer. She was very kind and welcoming. She sorted out the issue and her husband and herself welcomed both my relative from Arizona and myself back to the shop to tea taste. The attitude and service she provided is the reason why I love to support local boba places instead of chains and franchises. She shared her story and explained each drink we tried. She also mentioned there was a - Rewards Program which then results in a free drink or money off once you hit a certain amount of purchases! You can also get $2 off when you sign up to your purchase! This was never mentioned by any staff so it was great that Jennifer mentioned it to us! I thank Jennifer and Chris for welcoming us back. I do genuinely hate giving bad reviews but sometimes it's necessary and she understood it. We got : - Blush : Green Milk Tea infused with strawberries, blackberry, and raspberry purée, paired with strawberry hearts This drink was definitely my favorite milk tea so far! The drink provided a lot of tea traces (a plus!) It's also super cute and pink. 5/5 Stars - Two to Mango : Oolong Tea infused with Yellow Mango Purée, paired with mango stars This particular drink tasted like a Mangonada. Not my favorite but still great! 4/5 Stars - Dew Berrymore : Green Milk Tea infused with HoneyDew paired with dragon fruit and blackberry purée This drink reminds me of the Honeydew Milk Japanese Candy. 4/5 Stars - Purple Silk : Taro Milk infused with Pandan Leaves Jennifer included Agar Boba which paired great with it! This time, it tasted less sweet but also you were able to taste the traces of Pandan and the Taro was not at all watered down! 4.5/5 Stars Overall, through these four drinks, Blush wins! It's a refreshing milk tea! Most definitely will come back for that and "Winter Blossom," a winter-melon tea! read more
