    FYI
    Lloyd C.

    This TP Tea location is the OG of its kind in the South Bay. Located in the Pacific Rim Plaza near Walgreens, Joy Dumpling, etc. The parking can be challenging during peak hours as this strip mall has some popular restaurants, etc. Cozy interior with house music playing. They do offer a few tables outside but mostly inside seating. House music is blasting as is the A/C. One kiosk to and cashier to order from. One unisex restroom/storeroom. Yuzu Emerald Fruit Tea: with Yuzuco 100% Premium Yuzu Juice from Japan (added tea jelly). Support your local business.

    They have the best tie guan yin milk tea here!! It is my go-to! The tea quality is so strong and yummy. Not too sweet with less sugar.

    Strawberry lychee smoothie
    Glenn M.

    Very yummy! I ordered a strawberry lychee smoothie with boba and lychee jellies. It is and was so very delicious! You can taste the strawberry and the lychee! So delicious! We also ordered a mango boba milk tea and it was yummy too! The third tea was a passion green tea with boba and it was super delicious! The service was quick for being super busy! The ambiance is very nice to sit in and enjoy a delicious tea! Wonderful place I'll be back soon!

    Pork neck skewers

    Summary * Takeout * Skewers stayed crispy * Good service (ordered at restaurant) Food * Pork neck * Chicken gizzard * Beef skewers * Mantou Pork neck was my favorite. Chicken gizzard isnt my usual jam. Beef was good tho pork neck had a balance of meat and fat.

    This TP Tea location was conveniently right next to where we had dinner. Loved the drinks here it was so delicious. Easy ordering through the kiosk. Drinks came out quickly. There were some nice small tables to hang out at inside. The tea flavor here is really good. I got 25% sweetness and it was perfect. My friends all really liked their drinks as well. Always love a good stop into TP Tea.

    Placed an order ahead of time online, and the drink was ready to pick up literally as I pulled into parking space. Nicely decorated for the holidays. Prices are still reasonable. Got the YGF family milk tea which is Tie Guanyin Oolong with the 3 toppings - and it just HIT so hard. Give it a try!

    lychee fresh milk tea & lychee cube pearl fruit tea

    My friends and I decided to check out this place because we heard about the new Lychee drinks. I got the Velvet Lychee Fresh Milk Tea, 50% sweet, less ice, and with boba. The drink was ready in about 7 minutes. I'm typically not a fan of fruit milk teas because they tend to separate and not taste quite as cohesive as I would like, but I loved this drink! The milk tea struck a perfect balance of tea, milk, and lychee flavor. The boba was perfectly soft chewy, the milk tea was smooth, and the drink had a light sweetness to it. It was a Thursday evening, and there were quite a few people were there for the bogo deal. There are a few tables for seating, but most people were doing grab and go orders anyways. They had one kiosk for ordering. They had a restroom in the back which we had to ask the staff for access. This location is located in a plaza, so there was plenty of parking! I'm not sure if these drinks are here for a limited time only, but I definitely would come back again for this drink!

    People keep saying TP Tea is good, but I did not have this experience. We came to this plaza with another lunch plan but saw the tea shop was open so we went in. It was before 11:30am and apparently they were not ready to open. So they told us not to order on the kiosk, not in a nice tone. Then we waited outside, the waitress came out and closed the door without saying a word. Rather rude in the whole encountering. Nevertheless, we went back after lunch for milk tea. It's the regular milk tea with boba. I found their tea too milky and lacking the tea flavor, the boba is also smaller than other places, making it hard to chew even though they were cooked softly and chewy. The place was clean with comfortable and stylish seating arrangements, but most people came for a take out order. The music was Chinese pop songs, not too bad. All matcha were not available. The only good impression is the price is relatively reasonable compared to some tea places, but still in the $6+ range.

    Popcorn chicken

    Has been ordered the same popcorn chicken 1-2 times every week. Today suddenly too spicy that no one in the house can take it. Either the recipe changed or the chef is changed.

    15% sweet is perfect for Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea. I always order this one no boba on door dash or when i use snack pass to order ahead. I dont think the wait is too bad if u drop in and order depending on the day and time. Overall solid milk tea.

    Still one of my favorite, go to milk tea chains from Taiwan. I have been going here consistently since they opened in 2018, always opt for the Winter Melon Tea Latte here when Im in the mood for something a bit sweet no adjustments. When I want something a bit less sweet, I always get their Tie Guan Yin Latte 80% sweet and less ice. Overall if you like your milk tea creamy and tea forward tasting, this is your place. I recommend ordering on snackpass to avoid the long lines as this spot is always busy , not a lot of space to sit inside, and you can get points towards a free drink. ** Also fun fact I learned from my recent trip to Taipei, TP Tea is a chain opened up by another chain in Taiwan called Chun Shui Tang, known as the creator of bubble tea!**

    Taro milk 2/5 - this was not good.. we got 75% sweet and there was no flavor. Just tasted like milk. Two stars only because they use real taro but the taro doesn't mix with the milk. Would've been better if they blended the taro into the milk.

    Mango Tea Latte and Strawberry Milk Tea
    Melody K.

    I got their Mango Tea Latte with Boba ($7.50) and their Strawberry Milk Tea with boba ($7.50). Boba per drink was an additional $0.75. Mango drink was a 3.5/5 stars. The mango flavor was nice but the overall drink was average. The strawberry drink was better, a 4/5 stars as the smoothie texture and flavor was nicely done. The white sofas inside were nice and comfortable and some Halloween decorations were up. There is only one kiosk and the customer ahead of me took an incredibly long time to choose her order so my wait time during this visit was incredibly long because the drinks came out very slow as well.

    TP Tea Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - TP Tea

    What kind of tea do they use in their strawberry milk tea? Is it green tea or black tea?

    Do you still have tie guan yin tea latte on the menu? I don't see it on the Snackpass app

    You could order it on the Yamimeal app.

    How to order online?

    You can order from the Yamimeal App as well, same price as in store!

    Are they open for indoor seating as of March 31, 2022?

    No. However, they have limited outdoor seating options.

    Does anyone know if tptea offers gift cards?

    Unfortunately TP Tea does not offer gift cards.

    Do they do catering? Calling gets no response.

    Tp tea will try to answer all phone calls. If you have any questions regarding catering you can talk to the manager of the store for more information.

    I see a lot of boba shops, but there is always a line around the building here. What is unique about their drinks vs other places, besides being the OG boba shop?

    To add onto the first answer, which I totally agree that TP Tea is a lot stronger compared to other shops. I think something that makes them unique is their QQ noodle topping, you don't find it at other boba shops.

    Have anyone try use yumimeal online orders app to order they tea yet? Is working well? I know they have door dash but since like they charge so much yumimeal's price looks ok

    get snackpass. no service fees 😊

    As of January 2021, do the milk teas (NOT tea latte) use non-dairy creamer?

    They use dairy creamer, but if you want you can change it to a latte and request for oat milk

    Do they accept cash?

    The last time I went in November 2020, they only accept credit/debit cards and no cash.

    Are they open on Monday?

    They are open on mondays again!

    Can I order and pickup?

    Yes. just call and if you're lucky, they'll pick up. If they don't pick up, then just drive there and order. You need a mask to enter the place to place your order.

    What's the order app?

    They had an third party app to order with extra charge per drink, but it was suspended.

    Do they take online order now?

    You can call them and they will take your order! You need a minimum of 3 drinks and you need to pay by giving them card info. They will give you a number and you can pick it up.

    The paper sign on the door says they will open 12-4pm effective March 16, 2020. I went today (March 24, 2020) at 2pm and the store was closed. Does anyone know if they decided to completely close due to the shelter-in-place?

    Yes they are closed 3/23-3/26

    Has anyone tried their tea with cheese creama yet? Is it good?

    Yes! They have seasonal drinks right now too, so you can get the cheese creama with Mango or Grapefruit Tea.

    I went today and the cashier said that their milk teas (not just the lattes) use actual milk. Do they not have non-dairy creamer options anymore? Their menu doesn't make the allergy info clear

    They use non-dairy creamer! The only time they use milk is for lattes and if you request it (it is an additional cost)

    Do they use dairy for their milk teas?

    Only for their "Lattes" contain dairy. They use non dairy creamers for their milk teas :)

    What is the difference between milk tea and tea latte?

    Tea Latte uses real milk while milk tea uses creamer

    Is there dairy-free milk?

    When I asked, milk teas use non-dairy creamer while tea latte uses real milk.

You won't accidentally stumble upon it unless you make an effort to seek it out. Despite this, it seems to be well known by locals and the seating area gets full at times. There is plenty of seating inside, and some outside. Outlets can be found it some tables. It's a good place to work with your laptop. It's mostly tables for 2. There's a larger communal table, and some counter seating. Parking can be difficult. There's a small area in the parking garage for "guest" parking. It's almost always full and you will depend on luck to find one spot there or arrive in time when someone is leaving their spot. There is no parking on most of the surrounding streets, except for the small section of the road that curves underneath Lawrence. And that part is often full of parked cars. It can be frustrating and this parking situation will easily drive away customers to find somewhere else with easier parking. If you're fortunate enough to get parking, you will find that Coffeebar offers a decent coffee menu, baked goods, and some food if you need more than a snack. The people working behind the counter have all been very friendly and helpful. Their Chocolate Croissant is HUGE!!! They'll ask if you want it warmed up. Definitely do this. It is delicious slightly warmed up. I have tried their Iced Chai Latte, which was just OK. It lacked the spice I was expected from a chai, and felt a bit too milky. I prefer their Iced Caramel Latte, which is much better than the Chai. Next time I will try their Mocha.

What I love: - They always innovate on their specialty lattes, they have new flavors that change with the season, but they also keep their original menu intact as well. Pretty much anything you get is solid in taste. Their lattes always have that slightly malted vanilla note which I prefer. Today I tried their new Savannah Mint & Bourbon latte which was quite refreshing. Would recommend getting it light-sweet, it would be overly sweet if you didn't in my opinion. Also the barista recommended to get it iced which was a good call. - Plenty of seating. The place seems small, but somehow they have a lot of seating between the indoor and outdoor spaces What could be improved: - The WiFi is always spotty at this location. I've been forced to use my hotspot multiple times - Their food offering is pretty basic and the pastries aren't amazing either. Would be nice to see them have more options either made in house or from a better bakery. The bakery they use currently is pretty mid. What can't be improved, but kind of sucks (LOL): - The parking lot is a nightmare! It's always full and whoever designed it was not very smart (to put it politely). It is so congested and in some parts there is no way 2 cars can pass, let alone back out of the parking spot itself! The coffee shop is too popular for this parking lot basically.

It was near 5pm. I walked in and the place was empty. The gentleman behind the counter greeted me. I asked for a strawberry smoothie, then walked around to survey all the baked goods. It's a small bakery with lots of trays of individually packaged cakes and pastries. The smell was very pleasant and comforting. Using a flat basket (or tray) I grabbed a few selections. I picked 2 "Heart Pies" that resembled my favorite French Butterfly Cookies. Also 2 pound cakes. The total rang up to just over $21. There's some small tables for enjoying your purchases there, but I took my items to go. The icy cold fruit smoothie was very good and very cold! Not too sweet, it had a natural strawberry taste.

If you like surprises, are omnivore & no special diets or food allergies, Too Good To Go is the way to explore. The items were in generic packaging without labels, so take a pic of the items you like so can order when visit next time. While my family enjoyed all the items, I really enjoyed the black sesame studded puffy rolls that I think were made with rice flour. There was a large group of older Asian ladies, including one who brought their lap dog, enjoying good conversations in their native language with their baked goods and tea or coffee. Another gentleman was taking a video call to help decide the best cake to buy. Will add this bake shop for a place to have a coffee meeting and to favorite in Too Good To Go.

Each bite was delicious, everything tasted freshly baked and made, and I especially loved that the pastries weren't overly sweet. Although we enjoyed eating the tower from top to bottom, next time we would probably go from bottom to top since we like to save our sweets for last!

Also ordered an Americano and a Banana cream latte with almond milk. Thankfully there were plenty of seating as the first half morning rush already left, but by 12pm seating became sparse. The matcha croissant outside is white chocolate with matcha powder i believe, very sweet, not a huge fan of white chocolate. Inside there is chocolate which is nice, it's a nice crossiant tho and the signs say they use french butter and chocolate. The crossiant cube was delicious as always.

Overall pretty nice brunch everything was just under $80 which is a bit steep for brunch but this place really has the most variety pastries in one place and tho coffee isn't the best but at least they have the option as well.
