A very modern and bright boba tea shop with plenty of seating inside. They have computer screens where you can order your drinks but it was a little akward because the staff members were just standing right next to me while I was ordering. I could have very well ordered at the register but I had never been here before and didn't know the process. The staff was very kind and answered all my questions! I was a little disappointed to see that they only had coffee jelly, not any actual coffee drinks. I ended up getting the four seasons milk tea and it was good. I added boba and jelly to it but it didn't seem like there was that much boba in it, especially for how large the size was. I like that you can customize the sweetness though! Overall, a nice experience and a great option if you are a milk tea fan.

ALittle Tea is located at a busy corner of Colorado Blvd, right across from Pasadena City College. It is super easy to spot, and there is street parking available. You order from a Kiosk, which earns a star for the convenience. I ordered an iced Oolong Black Tea and it tasted really good. Like most tea places, you get to choose different ice and sweetness level. I chose 100% regular everything, and I loved my drink! The place is a bit small, with only a couple of tables available. It also smell a bit funny but it is overall a clean place. I love how they have those little Yucult drinks on display (they offer a Yucult flavored iced tea, a must try for my next visit). I did enjoyed my drink and give it a 7/10. Service was okay and I give that a 6/10. Overall, I will come again if I am ever in the area.

This is such a hidden gem! ALittle Tea has great prices for their drinks and includes boba, pearl, tea jelly, or coffee jelly in the price! It's a great value for the college kids nearby at PCC. I really like their milk teas, teas aren't too strong and very smooth. We stop by frequently when we're in the area. Drinks are usually ordered from one of two kiosks by the wall and they make the drinks pretty fast. There are multiple tables inside if you want to have your drink. Most of the time when I go there's at least one or more open tables. Highly recommend this boba shop and will definitely be coming back.

Mango sago
Janet K.

Ordering was very easy which you can do on the Kiosk or at the register. I wish they had more freeze options as I asked if they could do a mango freeze with sago but they said it's not possible. The sago is much smaller than what I'm used to at other bubble tea places. I did enjoy the grapefruit included in the mango sago. You can customize your level of ice and sweetness which is a plus. The store was very clean and vibrant. It seemed like a nice place to sit and maybe read a book or get some light work done but not long hours.

four season milk tea with pearl and passion fruit tea
Leo Y.

Located on a main street in Pasadena with plenty of dining options nearby, this classic go to boba spot unfortunately missed the spot for me with their pearls. The tea was nicely brewed but the pearls were on the harder side which makes me wonder if it was boiled too quickly or was from the previous day. Order: four season milk tea with pearl and passion fruit tea comments: pearls could use a bit more attention but otherwise solid boba spot

We came here on a Tuesday night and we tried two of their staples- the Boba milk, tea, and the oolong tea with jelly. The place is bright and happy with a good vibe. The price is average for a Boba place. The customer service was excellent. Highly recommended. Thanks to Joel for great service.

Conveniently located across the street from PCC. The drinks are reasonably priced. They offer a variety of different teas and toppings. My favorite is the milk tea or green milk tea half sweet. There's also indoor seating just in case you need to hang out or study before or after class. Parking available at the rear or their street parking as well.

Came here after getting dessert a couple doors down. This is a convenient location for PCC students. The interior is spacious and has several tables. I saw a few people working on their laptops. They have rule for each person to order one drink if you want to "dine in". Drinks came out fast after ordering from kiosk. I ordered black milk tea with tea jelly. It was solid and the tea flavor was strong.

Alittle has boba at an affordable price along with free two toppings as always. The parking is small but it makes sense due to the amount of businesses in the area. We got the Four Season Milk Tea with Tea Jelly and Pearls (mini boba) and the Oolong Milk Tea with boba. Four Season Milk Tea Usually for 70% sweetness, I was excepting it to be a bit more on the sweeter side but it tasted a bit less. Tea Jelly and pearl nice and chewy. The milk tea is creamy and delicious. Oolong Milk Tea The milk tea tastes fresh and has the subtle sweetness to it which is important in a milk tea. Boba is chewy and not too soft/hard. Also at 70%, it's not as sweet. The staff was nice and friendly and I was able to pick up my online order immediately with a small hiccup of trying to find my order number . Clean and modern interior just like the other ALittles except with a lot more seating and tables compared to the Rowland and San Gabriel locations. Perfect for students wanting to study and hangout with friends.

Medium Four Season Milk Tea with Boba and Tea Jelly

You're really missing out if you haven't tried ALittle Tea! Delicious and super affordable. This location also has chewier boba than the San Gabriel one. There's tables, outlets, a restroom and wifi too! A great place to work or hangout. Parking is in the back with a 45min limit. I usually get the Four Season Milk Tea with Boba and Tea Jelly, no sugar. The tea flavor has a bitter and roasted taste without being too heavy like a black tea. They always pair their milk teas with a creamer, which gives it a smooth and refreshing taste. Most add-ons are free, so I would recommend the boba and the tea jelly. This is by far the best tea jelly I've had - slightly sweet with a tea flavor you can actually taste! Overall, could not recommend this place enough!

While in the neighborhood we were looking for a good tea to go with lunch and A little Tea was close by so we decided to try it out. The store is clean and looks brand new with modern decor and cute neon signage on every wall. There is a self order kiosk with plenty of options to choose from. My daughter and I shared an oolong milk tea with added boba and it was delicious! Not powder or too sweet, we got ours at 75% and it was just right for a sweet treat. The staff seemed nice and our order came out within a few minutes. We will definitely come by again to try another drink but this experience was excellent. It's on the corner of Bonnie and Colorado so there's street parking with a parking lot for the nearby restaurants as well.

Free toppings

This tea place is right across from PCC on Colorado Blvd. Quiet place to study or work! Also friendly service. There are two kiosks for self orders plus counter register. Parking in the back and on the street. Very convenient.

interior tables to sit

I'm already such a huge fan of the san gabriel location, but the pasadena location is highkey even BETTER!!! the boba is more al dente, the tea flavor is stronger, and the drinks come out faster!! Also there's like 3-4 tables to do work on and no music playing inside in case you get distracted easily! my go to order is always four seasons milk tea, 0 sugar, regular ice, with tea jelly and boba. I'm writing this review from the bay area and i miss it so much...

It reminds me of liquid mango candy. I arrived at Chapresso (San Marino) on Sunday (around 12:15PM). Parking is a little challenging. There's no lot, so I used street parking. It's a brief couple minute walk. Customers can order at a self-service kiosk or counter. Staff is polite. Staff kindly answered all my questions. My drink took one minute and 52 seconds. Fast! As mentioned, I ordered the Mango Matcha Latte ($8.50 - 16oz - 75% Sugar). It's not bad, and it's thirst quenching. The drink made me think of candy mango and something a little gritty. On ambiance, Chapresso (San Marino) is very tiny and cramped. There's one small counter and a bench. There's also three assigned tables at front. The floors looked like they needed a quick sweep, but the air felt clean. I also enjoyed the slow-paced music. The location is very dimly lit though, so it all felt a little melancholy. Fortunately there's a little bit of utility at Chapresso (San Marino). There's one available electrical outlet. And there's customer internet with password; customers must ask staff for the details. However; this small location doesn't have a restroom. Overall, Chapresso (San Marino) is not bad. I didn't hate my beverage, and staff is friendly. If already nearby, I can lightly recommend. 3.9 out of 5

P.s their 3 for $10 deal on spam masubi/big cookie/ snacks is so fun! Their cookies have been delicious and I love how big they are, and the chips are a good salty option to eat with your tea.

It wasn't the closest place to grab a cup of tea or coffee, but I always felt like it was worth the walk. They have extremely creative and premium drinks with innovative flavors. Service is very strong. They offer great suggestions. I am very happy that their standard base for milk tease is non-dairy, something I usually end up paying extra for. Their new location has easier parking and is a very cute building with a courtyard. I recently met a friend there, but we were on limited work breaks, and I was so distracted that I forgot to take a photo of my pistachio latte. I really enjoyed it. This is one of the tea shops in town that I will continue to frequent.
