    Part of menu (march 2026?
    Christina L.

    March 2026 Weekday 2pm: milk tea with boba did not have much tea flavor! :( It's been some time since getting from Asha, their matcha is better than the teas. Order at the one kiosk or front counter, the order came out pretty quick. There's a couple tables inside. But all tables were occupied, luckily SF has some other public table spaces. Unfortunately there is no wifi. For $6.75, the tea flavor was not present, it tasted watery. The pearls had a great chew. Given that this is tea shop, I was hoping for better tea flavor. Better to go to HeyTea

    Asha, you're still one of my favorite Bay Area tea places. 5/5 every time! The only trouble I ever have is either the wait because the lines are so long, or me being unable to decide between all the good flavors. This is my favorite season (Feb-March) with Asian pear and blood orange. It's super refreshing and not like other places where they use syrup. Here they use the real fruit and it shows. Since I'm diabetic I appreciate the ability to have no added sugar in my drink, and they always do a great job of listening to me about less ice. Worth the $7, just take my $$$$$!!!

    Blood Orange Matcha Latte

    Travel days always call for a solid caffeine stop, and this one came through in a big way. While on a work trip to SF, I found Asha tea house near my hotel and was immediately taken cared of. The cashier was super kind, walked me through some popular teas, and even pointed out a few underrated seasonal options. I ended up ordering the blood orange matcha with oat milk, and wow... heavenly. Blood orange matcha is a such a fun and unexpected combo, but it worked so well. Prices were great for the matcha quality which made the experience even better. Loved it enough to come back the very next morning for the same drink, and I'd happily do it again next time I'm in the bay.

    Hong Kong Milk Tea

    I really enjoyed the Hong Kong milk tea, the flavor was more mild than a lot of other HK milk teas I've had which I thought was nice. The staff were nice and the interior is cute though it's a bit dark and small; probably not a fantastic place to work at. 4.4/5

    I been here a max 3 times already. Once for Matcha and the other times for ginger honey for 5.50 currently! I like the searing it's warm inside each time I visit while it's cold outside. Today closes at 5pm. The service is wonderful and the air is pure! I love this spot near Montgomery Bart. I'm sure I'll be back to try other things!

    Small cafe with milk teas, fruit teas, and nice ceremonial matcha! Service was nice and quick, restroom available for customers. I got a hot matcha latte extra sweet (other reviews of it not being sweet enough taken into account) and it was good amount of sweetness and not too hot to drink. Perfect for the chilly night!

    Inside

    Stopped by here in the afternoon before checking into our hotel. The shop is small with limited seating and was pretty busy but we managed to snag a spot to sit down for a bit before leaving. Cute and modern decor inside! We ordered at the kiosk (they only had one) and the bobaristas got our drinks out in under 5 minutes! What we got: -Hong Kong Milk Tea: pretty decent drink, and very high quality tea. It was not too sweet even with 100% sweetness (from our standards anyways) -Roasted Oolong Milk Tea: I could taste the really rich roast on the tea leaves in this drink! Not watered down at all, and tasted even more roasted the next day in the fridge. They have a lot of seasonal offerings so the menu that you might see from a couple months ago might not be on the menu. Overall solid spot that emphasizes the tea in milk tea!

    Loved my blood orange matcha! I'm picky about everything but the staff, ambiance, and drink were all amaze!!! Would love to come back when I'm around again :)

    this cafe has super cute vibes! they have a small specialty seating area in the back too. my matcha latte was yummy and refreshing on a hot day, but i think not enough matcha and a bit more bitter than my liking. the staff was super nice and tried to give the best recs to my friend.

    Strawberry matcha latte
    Jacky S.

    Wow this place is so amazing! It's been around for so long and a staple in financial district. I didn't know the matcha is top tier. Definitely reasonable price given the area at $6.50 and there are flavors you can add, woo for variety! Definitely my to go for my some afternoon matcha during a hard work day.

    There are boba shops that sell tea and then there are tea houses that are artisan tea makers. Asha definitely falls into the latter catagory. Homemade grass jelly and fresh brewed tea. It was nice and light and refreshing. Great indoor space. Street parking. Casual. Good service. Please come and create your own experience.

    Their tea is soooo good! I love hojicha so when I find a shop with hojicha lattes, I will always get it and Asha Tea House did not disappoint! Their hojicha latte reminded me of something I'd be able to get in Japan and I would definitely come back for it. The drink is lightly sweetened and was the perfect amount of sweetness. Their matcha latte with strawberry was also delicious! I love how they don't add extra sugar in the strawberry, and the strawberry flavor really came through in the matcha drink in harmony. Overall, the tea was perfectly steeped, not bitter and not bland/watered down. If you like deep tea flavors in your tea lattes, this is for you!

    Strawberry matcha latte
    Peyton G.

    Not much to say for some mediocre drinks. Ordered the strawberry matcha latte and the drinks came out quickly. The matcha itself wasn't very impressive but I wouldn't go so far to call it horrible. Sadly, the strawberry syrup tasted slightly pungent and artificial, ranking below most strawberry matchas I've tried. I will say that it was nice that they put a sticker on the drink indicating oat milk and escaping from the chilly SF weather was a plus.

Hey.. isn't this a coffeehouse!??? lol So I went for the Mocha and a blueberry scone. The Mocha was on point but I have to say the scone had a remarkable moist and almost airy texture with plenty of blueberries. 5/5 on the scone, 4.5/5 on the mocha. The servers were all friendly and seemed to enjoy being here as much as I was! I would love to come back again anytime I am nearby, especially midweek when there aren't any lines!
