a five star review is well deserved for aiyu cha! while living in westminster, this was my favorite spot. at my first time here, it was love at first sight! i knew i'd be coming back. the decor and ambiance is rlly cute and they decorate for holidays! they also have a unique selection of drinks. i always make sure to try new drinks aside from my usuals because everything looks so good! their menu is not a large as others, but you can tell they dedicate themselves to ensuring each drink is of superb quality. their boba is always warm and soft which i love as well. my favorites here are the lava green thai tea, oreo midnight smash, and kumquat green thai tea. their green thai tea is not as sweet as the ones you get from donut shops which i really appreciate. the cheese foam on top is chefs kiss :* honorable mention- oreo midnight smash! i don't usually go for blended drinks unless it's strawberry but boy this drink has me hooked. i understand why my brother has such a huge obsession over oreo drinks. it's just soooo good. please check out aiyu cha! it's the only boba spot in westminster i go to. read more

Aiyu Cha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

I stumbled upon Aiyu Cha for some pick me up on a Saturday afternoon. The ambiance felt chill with some nostalgic items on display. I ordered a Strawberry Yakult Tea with Aiyu Jelly. (Of course I wanted to try their aiyu jelly as they're living up to their name). My order was ready within 5 minutes. I really like the natural Strawberry flavor, paired with a slice of strawberry and the chunks of chewy aiyu jelly. Adding $1.10 for toppings seemed a bit pricey compared to other boba shops. The taste was almost identical to Ding Tea and Yifang (which is a compliment) because it the flavors were natural and authentic. Next time, I will opt to try their milk teas, Twilight Taro milk and slushies with soy milk. Thankfully, they offer dairy alternatives such as soy and oat milk (for $1 more). I'll for sure be back again at Aiyu Cha on my next visits in the OC. read more

Needs some sugar and caffeine for pick up. Was in the plaza and so this place so checked it out. Easy parking since big parking lot. Nice abs clean store, easy to read menu with plenty options, well displaced for what availability. Great service (new staff) and not bad for turned around since she was learning on how to make the drink. You got options on level of sweet, and so forth. The drink is great, perfectly hitted the sport. Perfect on making the good drinks. read more

Rose green milk tea at regular sweet (75%) less ice was ok, it kinda just tasted like a milk candy. It tasted heavily of creamer, and I wished I had gotten 50% sweet just so I can get more tea coming through each sip. I did taste a bit of a floral flavor, but it's too subtle when the sweetness drowns it out. Maybe it would taste light and refreshing at the lowest level of sweetness, but I don't think I'd come back to experiment with that, or even to try other drinks. I ordered at a kiosk, but you can also order with the barista at the register. My drink took some time to come out, but there were a few people ahead of me, and there was only one guy doing everything. He was flying at 100mph taking orders, making drinks, and checking up on things, going through the motions like a robot haha. I was hoping he washed his hands in-between tasks, cuz I didn't see him wear gloves. If I'm unsure or uncomfortable about it, it's another reason why I wouldn't come back. Inside has some chairs, and the shop is located at the Pavilions Place plaza. Parking is free, and the renovations to the lot made it much better to navigate around there. read more

Kinda ridiculous ngl. I totally get lowering the volume when ordering no ice, but this is (at most) 75% full including boba. Tastes good tho read more

Aiyu Cha - Oolong Milk Tea w Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

Tried the Crème Brûlée Thai Tea at Aiyu Cha this time and it was so smooth and delicious! Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their top 10 drinks listed on the screen. You can fully customize the sweetness and ice level, and they offer lots of topping options ranging from $1.10 to $2. Staff were friendly. Fun fact I learned from its website that the oolong and tieguanyin teas are sourced from Taiwan, and the purple yam comes from Hawaii. Definitely will come back!

easy in and out here to grab a matcha tea. I got a recommendation to skip any added sugar so I could actually taste the matcha and it was spot on. It hit the spot and was the right level of sweetness. Had no issues otherwise and was happy with my order. read more

Steep Thoughts: Florence's Quest for (Her) Perfect Black Milk Tea Black milk tea: 1.5/2. I got the black milk tea, 50% sweet. This milk tea is pretty standard but in a good way. The drink is smooth, creamy, and slightly caramel-y with a nice black tea flavor. Other drinks: 1/1. A mix of fresh teas, milk teas, fruit teas, slushies, and even coffee drinks. The milk teas are made with non-dairy creamer. Ambiance: 0.5/1. Cute decor with some plants and display cases. Limited seating, mainly to wait for drinks. Not really a place for getting work done. Service: 1/1. Order at the counter. There is a rewards system through Fivestars. Drinks come out quickly. Total: 4/5 read more

This boba place is on the edge of HB and Westminster and has some delicious boba. There no fancy looks nice but taste horrible milk tea here. If you order no sugar (yes no sugar), you get the full taste of the tea and toppings without having a full blast of sugar in your mouth. Even though there was only one person serving in the morning, the wait was no longer than 5 minutes for two boba teas.its worth coming if you are in the area to grab a tea. read more

Boba- 8/10 the boba is not too bad but it did get hard after 15 min or so. Drink- 6/10 black milk tea - I've had better. A mid drink. Service- 9/10 good service. Allowed me to have a sample of boba when I requested. Cost- $6.10 in total. Boba topping costs $1.10. What the heck I've never purchased boba topping that expensive!! read more

Aiyu Cha - LAVA GREEN THAI TEA and STRAWBERRY MACCRON - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

Bubble tea on Valentine's Day Not 4 cups at once (that'd be too much), but two separate visits combined in one post. Aiyu Cha (愛玉茶)? Has to be Taiwanese-owned (always a good sign). Sparkling Roseberry ($6.75): Flavorless sparkling water comes alive when mixed with the crystal boba and rose-berry syrup. Enjoyable, though retrieving the strawberry slices at home was a minor hassle. Lava Green Thai Tea w/ Honey Boba ($8.20): The "lava" refers to the brown crumbs atop the foam. A delicious matcha-Thai tea combo, but be warned: it's a potential sleep disruptor. Perfectly cooked boba - sweet and chewy. The regular sweetness was just right. Twilight Taro Milk w/ Sakura Crystal Boba (Less Ice, $8.20): A good stir combines the tea, boba, and taro nicely. Crème Brûlée Thai Tea w/ Honey Boba (Less Ice, $8.20): Packed with pudding, boba, and a rich, Thai tea slushy texture. Definitely Taiwanese-owned. That Taiwan-shaped wood carving, though? The inscription has major MLM motivational speech vibes... 情人節晚餐後的手搖不是一次喝四杯哦（這會早日見主的），是分兩次喝的一次貼上。 愛玉茶？嗯，這一定台灣人開的（基本算是不會踩雷的保證）。 氣泡玫瑰莓，6.75美金。氣泡水本身沒味，和杯底水晶珍珠和玫莓糖漿混攪飲用口感頗佳。要回家掀開杯蓋拿湯匙取出草莓片食用稍微麻煩。 熔岩抹茶泰奶加珍珠，8.20美金。熔岩該是指浮在奶泡表面上褐色餅屑。抹茶和泰奶頗搭但喝了要有晚上睡不著的覺悟。杯底珍珠烹煮火候掌握的好，其甜度和彈度皆恰到好處。正常糖度對我而言剛好。 左邊暮光芋頭鮮奶少冰加櫻花水晶珍珠，8.20美金。用吸管攪拌茶湯和沉澱杯底的珍珠和芋泥。 右邊焦糖布丁泰奶少冰加蜂蜜珍珠，8.20美金。整杯充滿布丁，珍珠和類似泰奶冰沙口感濃郁有料。 果然是台灣人開的。但台灣島形木雕上的文案嘛，感覺有點像直銷說明會上演講的成功雞湯那套... read more

Service was nice but a bit slow. It was 80 degrees inside the store (wasn't cold outside) so it felt pretty stuffy. As someone who likes drinks on the sweeter side, often get 125% sweetness at most places, this place makes extremely sweet drinks. I didn't adjust the sweetness since I saw reviews saying drinks are sweet as is, their regular sweetness is probably 150% sweet anywhere else so beware. Got the fluffy matcha and the thai tea creme brûlée. Both drinks were accurate to what you'd expect but just too sweet. read more

Decided to give this place a try as I was in the area and the Oreo smash was on the top 10 popular drinks. I decided to order it with boba, the drink was extremely sweet and I was not able to drink even half of it. I wasn't asked for a sweetness level at the time now reflecting back, but overall didn't think the drink was worth it for $8. Ambiance is pleasant with seating inside. read more

Aiyu Cha - Oreo Midnight Smash - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

Super busy complex features an average-sized parking lot. After making a couple of right turns, we managed to secure a parking spot on a bustling Sunday afternoon. Decor on the surface looks very unique and trendy, while further inspection of the floor corners, seating features, and the hallway leading to the restroom scream unkept and unclean. The server was very friendly and energetic. She kept that energy consistent with each customer and really made the visit a delight. We opted for their Cheesy Ube ($6.50) and Twilight Taro Milk ($7.10) . Cheesy Ube was probably our favorite. We also ended up adding their honey tapioca, which was cooked beautifully. We didn't care for their Twilight Taro, honestly just flavored milk with not a lot of flare. Didn't even end up finishing it. It's not our top favorite drinks, and I probably won't be back for this one. read more

Aiyu Cha - Mango slushy and Kumquat Thai Green Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

I really wanted to like this boba shop, but the experience was a bit mixed. First off, the menu situation was super confusing--Yelp photos and past reviews showed different things, and their website was basically useless (it only listed winter melon tea?!). There were no real descriptions of the drinks anywhere, so unless you wanted to play a guessing game or bombard the poor cashier with a ton of questions, you were kind of stuck. To make things more frustrating, I went on a regular Wednesday at 7pm and they were already out of a lot--no boba, no strawberry green tea, and no lychee jelly. Definitely unexpected. After a bit of trial and error, I ended up ordering the Honolulu Surprise, which was described as a lemon-mango sparkling drink with curacao. It sounded super refreshing and flavorful--but in reality, it tasted more like a lightly flavored seltzer. Not bad by any means (especially in this California heat), but also not what I was expecting based on the description (but just as pretty as the photos in the store). Overall, I left satisfied but not wowed. If they improved their menu accessibility and descriptions, I could see this easily being a much better experience going into the store. For now, it's just an okay spot that might hit the spot on a hot day--but I would be willing to try again because other drinks definitely sounded good. read more

First time it was so amazing and delicious. This time we ordered the same thing, crème brûlée and tiramisu milk tea, and it did not taste anything like we got last time. Sucks to pay that much and it not taste like what it's supposed to. It tasted like regular milk tea and I did not like it. Pretty disappointing that it went from our favorite boba to mediocre. Love how cute it is inside the place. Service was so amazing and funny the first time, very helpful. read more

Aiyu Cha - Creme Brulee Thai Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

Aiyu Cha seems to have undergone lots of changes including new owners/management. Unfortunately, the quality has diminished significantly. Now, the drinks are extremely sweet even when asked to make it the least sweet. They are no longer able to answer questions regarding tea. They also no longer offer remakes/refund if you don't like your drink, which is something they made sure to emphasize upfront. This new policy makes me question how many people have needed to ask for a remake/refund before they had to tell every customer right away. It is no longer the cute and comfortable atmosphere that drew me in. The tea lacks quality and effort. The staff lacks knowledge of tea. I will no longer be visiting read more

Came here after work and got the premium oolong milk tea. One thing I've got to say is that compared to other boba places, this one is delicious. It was not watery and I could definitely taste the high quality tea behind it. The boba was also very fresh and did not taste old, which is a plus! It had a perfect brown sugar coating around it and also had the perfect chewy texture! Definitely coming back for more in the future! read more

Aiyu Cha - Matcha pudding and boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Westminster, California

I wanted to update my review since its been years since my last review. I am grateful that Aiyu Cha exists nearby me. I still come frequently for my boba fix. They make one of the best boba balls in the area. The balls are nicely sweet, chewy and made to perfection. Their drink menu also has a wide variety from milky drinks, fruit teas, ice blended, and coffees. I like that they have plenty options for non-caffeinated as well. My absolutely favorite drink here is their Lava Milk tea which you cannot adjust sweetness. However, I like that is is made by default not too sweet. Also it comes with boba and is delicious. I also like their twilight taro milk that is made with real taro. Most drinks here you can adjust sweetness and ice level. Besides their amazing drinks they also have Kokonut pudding which is so good if you have never tried them. The sesame Kokonut is my absolutely favorite. They also have ice cream macarons as well. The only downside to this place is its smaller. There are few tables and chairs but its not really a place to hang out since it gets pretty loud in there and sometimes people are standing to wait for their drinks. Also no bathrooms. It's more of a grab and go type of spot. The staff is really nice and drinks come out within reasonable timing. read more

I really wanted to give this boba shop higher review's based on other yelpers hype, but after trying here for now the second time and being disappointed again, I have to give this place a mediocre rating of three stars. We ordered the honey lemon tea and jasmine milk tea with boba. I've been in search for a boba place where the tea is fragrant and notable in drinks and sad to say Aiyu has fell short like many other boba shops that we've now tried as their tea also tasted watered down/diluted. The only thing that's keeps this place positive and the texture of their boba. It has a nice chew/bounce, so I will say they have the texture down. Other than that, the simple jasmine tea we ordered was definitely was lacking in tea flavor. This will probably be our last time visiting as last time we ordered the rose tea and found that also bland. read more

Service was good. My drink was awesome. Only a couple of people were there placing their orders. This was my second visit

I love the orange shaken tea which has real fruit. Service was fast, friendly, efficient. 75% sugar and less ice.

I absolutely love this spot! It's tucked away in the old Pavilions shopping center near Target and is a fairly new addition to the area. As a big iced tea drinker, I really appreciate that they offer so many unique tea options--something that's seriously lacking at places like Starbucks. The teas here actually taste like real tea, not the usual generic stuff you get elsewhere. They also serve cold coffee drinks, and the Vietnamese coffee is especially good. I love that they offer coconut milk as an option--it adds a really nice flavor. My go-to drinks are definitely their fruit teas--so refreshing and full of flavor. And of course you can be adjust sweetness; you can always ask for like 10% or 25% sweetness to lessen it. I love the sealed cups and thick straws too. The service is another highlight. I tend to ask a lot of questions, but the staff is always super patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. I leave learning or trying something new. It's such a cute, welcoming place to stop for an iced tea or a specialty coffee. I really hope they stick around--it's a much-needed and much-appreciated alternative to the usual chains. Honestly, I'd choose this place over Starbucks any day. The ambience is a nice look --modern and clean. It would be cute for a little date - an unpretentious place to just sit and chat for a few and then walk over to Dai for some sushi (if things are going well) :) read more

This is my favorite boba place! I've been going here for years. My go-to drinks are the lava boba milk (I haven't found a place that makes it better) and the tie guan yin milk tea (amazing strong tea flavor.) Service has always been great! read more

This place is near a Daiso and other restaurants around, easy to find parking. The wait is 10-15 minutes on a Saturday. Barista are friendly. We ordered: - Peach green tea , 50% sweet, light ice - Twilight Taro milk, 50 % sweet, light ice - Tie Guan Yin lychee tea, 50% sweet, light ice Price: Each drink around $6, topping is 0.75 more. The drinks are okay, even 50% sweet is still pretty sweet for me. The tea is strong, but it varies between different drink, I would recommend the tie guan yin lychee tea as the tea is more strong than the others, a more roasted / floral taste. I like how they add a fruit in the fruit tea drinks. The interior is cute, clean, and have wood furnitures. There are a few tables and a few seats, seats are comfy. They also have a restroom, it is locked with passcode but customer can use it. Near the drink making area they have a glass display of small stores decoration. I would give 3 stars for the drinks, but the nice interior and friendly service make it a star more. read more

One of the freshest taro milk teas I've had ! I did not get their boba so I can't speak on that but this shop was so cute! They had macaroon ice cream sandwiches and also coconut yogurts you can purchase. The coconut peach yogurt was very good, not too sweet and taste like fresh coconut. The taro in my drink was like a paste and tasted like fresh taro in my drink. Would love to go back and try more of their drinks and the boba. Cashier was friendly and service was pretty quick with there being a few people in the shop. read more
