    Crème brûlée milk tea
    Nancy M.

    Really really yummy!! Ordered the crème brûlée milk tea w/ boba 30% sweet and it was so good!! The boba is perfectly chewy, milk tea had a strong tea flavor and the crème brûlée top added a nice creaminess to the drink. Prob my favorite crème brûlée drink around the area. I've been searching for a solid crème brûlée milk tea after getting hooked on it from Machi Machi (not around here) but this place takes the cake for best crème brûlée milk tea. The inside is really cute and creatively themed. Some tables to sit and hangout as well. Bathroom is SO CLEAN. Loved it. Service was also really good and nice! They were giving away free disposable kitchen gloves today and tickets for potential to go to World Cup but ours only had free topping and BOGO drinks which was still a nice surprise. Would def come back again to try their other drinks. Parking in the plaza was not bad on a Sunday afternoon and had a good amount of spots.

    Decided to check out this Vietnamese-inspired, space-themed coffee and tea shop, as the futuristic decor and creative menu caught my eye. The shop had a cool, modern atmosphere and did not feel gimmicky at all. My partner and I shared 2 drinks: Oreo Eclipse Matcha Brûlée (matcha-infused custard topped with caramelized sugar and served with crunchy oreo pieces) and Crimson Dragon (red dragonfruit green tea). Even with 30% sugar, both of these drinks were way too sweet. And with less ice, the drinks still contained a lot of ice. Taste-wise, the drinks were only tolerable. Although the parking lot here seems decently sized, this plaza's shared lot is notorious for feeling tight and cramped, especially on weekends. Seating inside the store is also pretty limited, with just a few small tables.

    When I went a few nights ago, I had a few drinks. The tiramisu brulee milk tea was SUPER sweet, and I got it with brown sugar boba which tasted a bit old, mushy, the flavors didn't mix well. I also tried the house black milk tea with brown sugar boba, it was just a regular milk tea, nothing too special. Very cool interior! I'm going to have to come back to try the coffee

    The store is pretty cute, space theme. Interior certainly makes you feel like your in a shop that's based in space. Decorations are quite visible and very much a good background for your pictures. There's two self ordering kiosks which is great to avoid wait times. Seem like a solid spot for people to hangout at as there's some tables/seats on the left. Other than that, just standing space. I was decently happy about my matcha Oreo brulee. However, I wasn't expecting the cup to be this small compared to my partner's drink. On top of that, the drink didn't look fully filled as it was topped with tons of ice even though my order had the ice less option. A bit disappointed on that end although the taste of the drink was pretty delicious. A great mix of brulee, Oreo flakes and matcha was a unique taste that's not too common in most shops. It's either one or the other but this had both. Highly recommend this drink, can see why it's one of the most popular drinks. Parking here however is a bit of a nightmare especially during peak hours. Although it's a sizeable lot, finding parking is a struggle which the amount of congestion around. Drinks came out pretty quick which was a nice plus. Would come back to try other options as their menu is quite extensive.

    Astra Bean is a modern boba tea shop with some cool space-themed decor. This spot is located in a plaza with a decent amount of parking spots, but things can get tight depending on the day and time you come. Inside, they have about 3-4 tables for seating. For their menu, they have a nice selection of different matcha, fruit tea, and coffee drinks to choose from. I got the Manderine Acerola and wifey got the Matcha Jasmine Oolong. We both enjoyed the flavor profile of our drinks. All of the staff here are very friendly and welcoming. Definitely check this spot out for your next boba run in OC!

    Jasmin Oolong with jasmine jelly

    This place is so different from regular boba shops it is definitely out of this world "wink wink" The jelly they make is so good I tried jasmine jelly with my jasmine oolong. They also use organic lactose free milk that is delicious in a drink. We also tried strawberry cheese drink and peach hibiscus and they were all pretty and yummy.

    I've passed by this boba shop and seen posts on social media about this spot for a few months now, but I didn't get the space theme so I never stopped in. They are currently running a BOGO deal and I was in the shopping plaza & luckily found a parking spot. I told the cashier it was my 1st time and she was very helpful, even offered some samples of their milk teas. I ended up getting: 1. Matcha Jasmine Milk Tea 2. Dragonfruit Tea Both were refreshing & not too sweet. The cups & bag were also high quality. I'm glad I stopped in and definitely plan to come back again (if I can find a parking spot)

    cups weren't filled all the way to the top.
    Kimberly T.

    The drinks were pretty good. The packaging is cute and they use high quality bags for to-go. But behold my surprise when I took the drinks out of the bag and found that they didn't even fill the cups all the way. The drinks are priced okay but companies should always fill the drink cups to the rim. Parking in this plaza is pretty terrible. It's always been busy when I've come and all the stalls feel like they're meant for compact cars (I drive a small SUV).

    Cute concept for a boba shop and I do love themed dining all sorts. I'm not sure exactly what inspired the space theme but I found it thoroughly entertaining. I got the coconut Vietnamese coffee and and man, was I wide awake the whole afternoon. I was a little bummed when the coffee didn't fill up the cup. I'm not sure if this is typical but there's just something about getting a partially empty cup of coffee that doesn't feel right. Parking is a bit rough in this complex. There's just way too many businesses and not enough spots and all of them are super small.

    Cute little shop with plenty of outside parking. I ordered the matcha Oreo brûlée and I wish it was creamier, but overall the matcha flavor is good!

    Oreo Matcha Brûlée and Durian Avocado Smoothie
    Lillian C.

    The shop is so cute and right now they're doing a promotion scratch card! I got the Oreo matcha brulee which was a 3.5/5 since I should have gotten 100% sweetness because I like it sweet. My friend got the Durian Avocado smoothie which was a 4/5 for her because she likes the strong durian taste!

    Acerola Dragon Fruit & Matcha Jasmine Oolong
    Justin C.

    Astra Bean is a cute shop located in a strip mall with ample parking. I went pretty late at night though so the parking lot was fairly empty. The inside is decorated really nicely and themed around outer space. You can order at the kiosk they have in the front or also place an order for pickup. They were pretty quick to make our drinks and they all turned out pretty good. I would definitely consider this as an option again. Staff: 5/5 Sanitation: 5/5 Acerola Dragon Fruit (4/5) The acerola drinkn was interesting. There were bits of what seemed like kumquat or maybe lemon rinds in it that I wasn't expecting but didn't hate. It tasted really fruity but I wouldn't say I could taste the dragonfruit in the drink. Matcha Jasmine Oolong (5/5) This drink was really good. The matcha was light but you could still taste it through the Oolong tea. I think the tea in this drink was well brewed. I would definitely order this again.

    Durian Avocado
    Felicity D.

    Came for some late night boba and the Durian Avocado drink caught my eye. As a Vietnamese person, these are my favorite flavors. However, the drink was not good at all. The aftertaste was really bad, tasted like throw up. I'm disappointed because I assumed this was Viet owned considering the location, therefore, I believed the quality of this drink should've been better. Will not come again.

Walking into the shop, you're greeted with a dark gray concrete vibe with plenty of matching decor.

They've also got a nice little patio to just rest and relax at while you enjoy your drinks. I've had a few pretty deep conversations coming out of this place. Okay, even though I did come to a coffee shop, I did end up getting a hojicha latte that was roasty, nutty, and delicious alongside the vanilla notes that they add. Great choice for some of you who don't do so well with caffeine. It's easy to drink, and thoughtfully prepared! I got something a little different. It was a strawberry co-ferment espresso in a cappuccino ratio. You could really taste that strawberry come through, and having it hot and with milk was a perfect choice. Fruity, complex, and funky! Love to see places serving co-ferments. I don't think it's over-played in specialty coffee, and I do appreciate having the option! And, I didn't get it today, but getting a fancy pour-over at this spot really hits. If you coffee sweats like the fun stuff, you'll have plenty of that here!

I ordered the black sesame latte and my bf got the vietnamese coffee. I like how they also 'warn' you about the size, because the size cups are tiny looool The vietnamese coffee especially is very tiny. Despite the size, I know the coffee is gonna hit hard if you're paying for a price of a regular size cup. The coffee is also very dark so you know it's gonna be very strong. I mainly wanted to try the black sesame latte and yep it was pretty good! The cream was veryyy nice and creamy. It definitely is very strong coffee because usually when I have extremely strong coffee, I start to sweat and get a headache, so yes they serve very strong coffee here. Don't let the size fool you. Small but mighty. Something you should also sip than chug. Overall, the coffee is good, but feel like it was just a one time try for me. I do enjoy a bigger size cup cause I feel its more worth it, even if the caffeine hit is as worth, I do enjoy more of the volume and it could be less concentrated. I respect it though! Cashier was nice and friendly.

That's outrageous. Comparable teas with juice at other local places are a dollar or more less expensive - and often also include boba or jellies.
