The decor is cute and welcoming. I was greeted when I walked in and experienced great service from the workers. Looking at the menu, there's plenty of great options. Some interesting sounding ones were Popcorn Latte and Tiramisu Biscoff Latte. There's also a bunch of yummy matcha options. I ended up getting a small Thai tea with boba (50% sweet). I really enjoyed the Thai tea and I don't have much of a sweet tooth so it was nice to have that customization option. I will also note that the boba was great. It was cooked perfectly. Not too hard and not too soft! Overall 5/5 stars :)

On 5/3/2026 around 2:59 PM, we visited A Tea Thing and unfortunately, the experience was very…read moredisappointing. When we arrived, it was busy, so we sat and waited for the line to go down. Once there were only two parties left, we got in line. When we finally reached the counter, the clerk took a phone order instead of helping us. We were then told to scan a QR code to place our order because they needed to focus on making drinks. After waiting in line, this was frustrating and felt very disorganized. Overall, the customer service was the worst part of the experience. It felt like in-person customers were not a priority at all. This was my first time at this spot, and it left a bad impression. I don't think I will be returning.

There was a line out the door but once you actually get to order, the employees work fast. We snagged street parking but they have spaces around the back as well. The pastry case did look a bit disorganized/unlabeled so could use some work. Simple decor and lots of seating.

I don't like mate on its own but with fruit it's a smoky complex iced tea that's a delight with the caffeine I need to get my day going. The caffeine from mate feels better than coffee for me--I recommend trying this out if you're used to getting Starbucks or other coffee regularly! They will customize your drink to your liking. Also I love learning and getting a piece of Argentina here in the Valley. You can get that here with empanadas and other snacks. Service is so great that I'm reminded why we support local businesses and reminded what community means. I tip what I can and plan to support by coming back here. A comfy couch area plus tables for studying and working, catching up with friends, eating. And outdoor seating too. Lots of parking bc the Valley. And they have a punch card for frequent visits!

I had the Blue Shirley Temple and it was really good. Thoroughly enjoyed. They have board games. Arcade games. They have an outdoor patio that is a vibe. It is just a really nice area. Parking could be tricky BUT they are open later in the day so you can luck out with the parking as it is on a main street. The staff and the owners were super kind. I came here with my friend and he is there about daily so they knew him and knew what to order for me. Great space and great drinks. There's also a ton of health benefits in Kava.

We ordered the bouquet burrito and chilaquiles. Food came out fairly quickly, and they even package your food in a to-go box in case you have leftovers to take home. The burrito was huge, flavorful and generously filled. The chilaquiles were tasty as well. Overall, we were happy with our quick breakfast bite. There's a communal table along with other indoor seating plus some outdoor seating available too.

Definitely worth a visit! They have more than coffee. They provide a space with a surprisingly…read morelarge menu! First, the obvious. Coffee is solid. It's a great place to hang. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. BUT BEWARE indoor seating gets competitive. Especially on a hot day, you'll often see people moving from seat to seat to get away from the entrance or are waiting for a seat to be freed inside. It's a great place for anything really. I've had hours of conversations, reading and work done here. I've also seen many others do the same. My main con with this place is the parking situation. The parking lot is TINY, so you have to park locally. That's about a 3-5 minute walking distance from the store. I normally wouldn't mind, but it bothers me on hot days. The food is so interesting. They have both healthy and hearty options at a competitive price. It's the classic Chicken & Waffles, Avocado Toast, Bouquet Burrito (a breakfast burrito) and Breakfast Tacos. Someone in the kitchen also likes kimchi and loves mixing it in their food because they also serve Kimchi Breakfast Tacos and Kimchi Grilled Cheese. I don't know how many visits it'll take to fully experience this place, but I think it's worth it.

It was almost 20 dollars for what was basically rice and bits of bacon. I didn't see any cheese or taste any egg, and the garlic rice was really dry.

Dropped by over the weekend to see this new and absolutely beautiful location. Parking lot is tiny and has specific ones for the other shops next door so do be aware of where you park! Not sure how strict they are. The classic logo up front, beautiful decor and smells as soon as you walk in, greeted by the loveliest staff and even got to see familiar faces like Liana (owner) and Salma (my favorite Barista). The layout is similar to their original location in Balboa so it felt like we were right at home. Menu is easy to read, love that it has descriptions and photos for a lot of the drinks. I stick to my usual: Small Iced Moody Latte (pistachio latte with strawberry cream top) and they perfect it every time. Perfect amount of sweetness with the strong taste of espresso. The Lee's Special is definitely another must try if you haven't had it before! If I am feeling like a sweeter drink kinda mood, I would get that. Drinks come out quick as well so you're not waiting long at all. Love this spot and can't wait to visit more if I'm in the area!! IG: @ammysalamii
