My first time at this location in Costa Mesa. Just finished a nice dinner and decided to come and have some drinks here. I ordered summer mint and that was quite a nice and refreshing drink. I enjoyed the nice light minty taste and a blend of limes inside. Overall this was nice and we decided to drink it in the car. They do have some chairs and tables inside if you want to relax in here. read more

This boba spot is totally fine. But just fine. The only drink that I would come here for is their mung bean milk tea, but adding on sea foam and boba costs a full 90¢ each, making the drink 7 or 8 bucks for an ok beverage. The workers are good at what they do, but there's no WiFi and the tables are hard to sit at to work. Overall, I'd say just go to feng cha. read more

I rarely come to this location of 7 Leaves and I thought I'd leave a review just to report that I love how consistent all the 7 Leaves are. Their drinks tastes the same across many locations I've been to and the workers are always friendly. I love that they also offer a point system where you get free drinks from time to time. read more

Staff is great and space looks clean. Drinks are good. Some are better than others. The coffee tastes a bit burnt to me now so I stay away from those. Some of the other drinks may be sweet so I get an extra cup of ice to dilute it. Restroom has a super long code. Very few seats so good luck getting one. Rewards program gives you leaves for free drinks. read more

I had a hankering for a sweet drink after dinner and found this place. I got there at a time where it wasn't too busy so they got my order in right away and prepared it quickly. There were plenty of tables and they were clean. I ordered a taro milk tea and salted caramel macaron. Taro Milk Tea- Light and creamy with a good taro flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. Salted Caramel Macaron- Pastry part was perfect and the filling was rich and bursting with caramel flavor and a sea salt finish. Great experience overall! read more

I stopped in because I was craving my normal green Thai tea. I ended up walking out with 2 half gallons of tea, lol. They were doing a 20% off on half gallons and I love their green Thai tea so much that I got the half gallons for myself. They gave me like 10 cups, lids, and straws like it's for a party hahaha! One important note is that you can do oat substitute if you're lactose intolerant like me. On some drinks you can't really adjust the sweetness, they can only add more milk to make it less sweet. read more

Bottom Line Up Front: 7 Leaves Cafe is my go-to boba shop chain, but this particular review will be for the Costa Mesa location. Drinks: Almost all the boba drinks range from good up to awesome. This visit, we got a Vietnamese iced coffee and the seasonal Brazilian lemonade. The former was delicious; it has a slightly different flavor than traditional Vietnamese iced coffee, but it's still my go-to drink from 7 Leaves. We also got the Brazilian lemonade, which was tart but simultaneously sweet. A refreshing drink if you want a different style lemonade. Unfortunately, the prices continue to climb and that means I buy fewer and fewer drinks ... and they get a half star deducted from their overall rating. Service: The employees here were pleasant, competent, and friendly. Our cashier was happy to give us samples of the seasonal drinks and provided us background info. The Setting: Located in a strip mall not far from South Coast Plaza, this location is smaller than some other 7 Leaves. There are only 3 long tables, two of which have tall stools and one with traditional chairs. If it's super busy or you have a large party, it might be difficult to find enough open spaces. There is no outdoor seating. It's best for to-go orders, which is not good if you're looking for a cafe to chill at. Because of this, they get another half star deduction for their overall rating. Conclusion: 7 Leaves is a higher-quality boba shop that emphasizes quality teas and drinks over novelty flavors and sugary concoctions. All employees have always been polite and helpful. The same holds true at this location. Unfortunately it's on the smaller side, so it can't be a convenient hangout spot. Plus, the prices (following industry trends) are higher than should be. But overall, I enjoyed this cafe and would return when in the area. read more

OVERALL : 7 Leaves is a veteran in the OC boba/coffee scene, and they have a smaller, focused menu with milk tea, fruit tea, and coffee that they do very well. Once in a while they come out with a seasonal drink, so I knew I had to try it! Ordering is super simple at the counter (remember to pull up your app for reward points) or via the app! Workers are friendly and quick with making drinks. There is some seating if you'd like to hang out with friends or get some work done, but most people seem to get their drinks togo here. This review is solely for their new Rio Rosa drink! PARKING : There are a lot of good foods in this plaza and ample parking space in the parking lot right out front :) Pretty spacious but it can get crowded during peak hours. FOOD/DRINKS : Rio Rosa - strawberry, condensed milk, lime -- reminded me of their Brazilian lemonade but with a touch of strawberry flavor! Refreshing and tart, definitely a summer drink. At the end of the day, I still like their milk teas, coffee, and fruit teas more, but this was fun to try! read more

7 Leaves Cafe is a popular chain, especially for the "Mung Bean" tea and coffee drinks. The Bristol location is perfect for my afternoon tea run to break up the work week. The 7 Leaves atmosphere is relaxed, with clean and modern décor, and staff are nice. I very rarely stay but opt for the "fly in and out" picking up my order. We like to order via the app so it's fast and convenient. Will be returning again next week. read more

I spent a couple hours at 7 Leaves earlier this week during a work trip as a touch down spot to catch up on emails while enjoying a Thai iced tea. I've visited this location previously with my sister, but mostly for a quick online order pick up instead of spending time inside. Maybe the staff has come to expect online order pick ups, but they seemed to be caught off guard when I clarified that I didn't have an online order, and still needed to order? Regardless, they took my order and I found a spot at one of the tables to set up my laptop while they were making my drink. It was only a short wait before they called my name, and I was able to stretch out my Thai drink for the entire time I was there. It was a nice atmosphere to work, with a steady rhythm of customers throughout. read more

Boba- 5/10 good thing I only asked for a sample of boba bc the bobas were hella dense and hard in the middle. ALWAYS ASKS FOR SAMPLES BEFORE COMMITTING! Drink- 8.9/10 Assam milk tea - I requested less sweet and thank god I did. This drink was already sweet asf even after requesting less sweet. It has a strong flavor of tea to the drink. Service- 9/10 good. They let me try a sample of boba. read more

I love the boba here it is always fresh and soft. They also have a great variety of other add ins and the employees are very kind and helpful. Another favorite thing is that they sell macarons in a variety of flavors which are a delicious treat! They open super early at like 6:30am or 7:30am depending on the day which is amazing because most boba places don't open until closer to noon! There's plenty of free parking unless you come during peak dinner time and then they have valet because there's a few busy restaurants in the center. read more

Only reviewing their macarons! Chose their strawberry, green tea, and pistachio macarons. Even at 7PM, their macarons were perfectly crispy, yet moist and chewy "feet." Their Macaron filling is my favorite! Light, creamy, a perfect macaron pastry texture: subtle crispness, soft and moist chewy center. They're $2.50 each now, but it's a sweet treat to indulge myself with. read more

7 leaves has such a big place in my heart. It brings me back to my childhood when I used to have my older friends in high school take me to get a cup of their sea salt jasmine tea. Now they've come up with so many delicious flavors. Their customer service never disappoints. They always want you to leave the place happy. Ambiance is calming and clean. I love this place so much. If you haven't tried their Brazilian Lemonade ask for a taste, they'll let you try it. That's how I got to loving the drink. read more

Tried the Vietnamese iced coffee today with crystal boba, sea cream, and a shot of espresso. I was pleasantly surprised an so were my parents. They said it was way better than lee's sandwich iced coffee and that it was legit Vietnamese coffee. Highly recommend trying it. They are also currently running a promo where if you download the app and do a survey, you get enough points for a free drink. read more

Not the best tea we've had but certainly not the worst. Worth the try but won't be back.

I've always wanted to try 7 Leaves, but never got to try since I usually just go to other popular boba tea places. I happened to be in the plaza, and got thirsty while attending a grand opening event for a new place that opened up a few days, so I thought it was the perfect time to also get to try! I saw their summer seasonal drink was the Orange Dream, which I was intrigued for, so I ordered that. It was indeed refreshing while also being creamy, basically an orange creamsicle. It came with 2 orange slices, which was pretty good and the orange flavor was not too overpowering. I really enjoyed drinking every sip of the drink, albeit a bit sweeter than I would prefer because unfortunately this drink could not be adjusted according to the staff member who helped me. Overall, I will definitely be coming back and adding this to my list of boba places to go to often (especially its a plus that their drinks are much affordable- a regular size Orange Dream was $5.15, hard to find less than $6 drinks nowadays). I would highly recommend trying the Orange Dream. The staff is friendly and drinks were made fast. There are a few long tables to sit at, so it's a good place to hang out with friends or study (as it's like a cafe). Though next time, I also would really want to try the matcha soy or the sunset passion :) read more

We like grabbing a drink here while waiting for Anjins. The staff was very friendly and kind enough to remake my drink after I forgot to ask for less sweetener. We sat here for a while and they never had a line go out the door despite getting so many people. The matcha was good but was a little lacking of the matcha taste. But besides that, would recommend coming here for a refreshing beverage read more

I got the sea cream Jasmine tea, which is my go to drink here. The cream on top is a really nice touch. The drink is light and refreshing, however it does get quite watered down so finish it before ice melts! I didn't know that 7 leave offered samples but this location did! I sampled their mung bean milk tea and really liked it (it's similar to this Vietnamese drink that I don't remember the name of). The place itself is pretty cozy and I think would be a good study spot. Next time I come I want to get the mung bean or Thai tea! read more
