Dale S.

We stopped at this little food court area as we were walking Let's Glow to grab some drinks and a bite to eat. This location calls itself Boba and Brew but they have very few options for tea. I ordered a "classic milk tea" with light ice and it was about $6. There was only one other customer and it took longer to get the tea than it did to get my food from another truck in the area. This was hands down one of the worst milk teas I've ever had. It tasted like someone had brewed a weak cup of tea and left it out until it was room temperature and then added some powdered creamer to it. I'm not sure how new this business is but they need to work on their customer service and quality of product.

Came here for coffee at 11am (after spring forward). They use Equator coffee and they do a pour over. The coffee tastes very good -- the person was very generous with cream so if you like it light, be specific with them. It took a good few minutes to get coffee as they were just getting going and they grind the coffee after I ordered. Overall, cute spot.

Thai tea and ube tea

Quick Summary: - Located where the temporary bus terminal used to be I recall years ago, when I took the bus from the Bay Area to San Francisco, it drove into this large depot called the temporary bus terminal. Currently, all buses moved to the Salesforce park, so just the same I haven't gone here since its move. How I discovered this place was this app. My colleagues and I wanted boba but wanted to try something new than the ones near our office. We took a long and fun walk along the walk -- longer than our usual places -- and into this space. It still kept the physical remnants of the bus terminal, such as the cross walk and the crossing button that has no use anymore. It reminds me of Spark SF because the space was replaced as a sport activity like venue with some food trucks parked on another corner of space. Our destination today was to the boba place, so we walked past the miniature soccer fields and tennis or pickleball courts. We arrived here past 3pm, so it felt like the busy boba hours have passed. The staff there also assumed the same; there was only one person handling the order and making the drinks. The speed would be average, but unfortunately, my colleague team was large, so the orders took some time to complete. (I was relieved that there were no one after us, as expected, we did come at a slow boba hour) I ordered a Thai tea because that day. It was a refreshing drink with a creaminess of milk. Generally, I like how this space was repurposed, so I would need to visit here again.

The fruit teas were actually very refreshing, particularly the Lychee fruit tea and the seasonal Red Guava fruit tea. They're all artificially flavored with syrups fyi. And their Classic Milk Tea is real but it's pretty bland and tastes more like milk then a milk tea.

Thai iced tea with coconut jelly
Iris J.

Location was super easy to access, we were walking and came across it. Menu is limited, but the item we did order was amazing. They ran out of boba and were in the process of making more, so we settled for coconut jelly with our Thai iced tea and it happened to be an awesome accidental combination. Prices were a little steep for the only small-ish size they offer, but it's SF, so I guess that's to be expected. There are also plenty of lunch style benches for seating, and they were all clean. The service was fast and friendly, and the drink was probably some of the best Thai tea we've had in a long while, we will likely return.

Mango Smoothie

Good service and nice ambiance Mango smoothie tasted very yummy, and the price was reasonable!

The coffee bar

Service is great!! I even got a sample of the boba... and their coffee is awesome. And the kind gesture of the cashier and chat we had was sweet.

Strawberry fruit tea

Beautiful boba and coffee bar right next to pickle ball courts. A block away from Salesforce Park and transit terminal. My Strawberry boba was perfect and my buddy loved the Ube taro boba.

It seems like there's also an upstairs but did not get the chance to check it out. I got an iced latte with their almond macadamia milk, and they're also so nice to do complimentary cold brew! So we got an extra drink for free. Trying the iced latte, it was pretty disappointing lol. I thought it would be similar to like a Hawaiian style latte with macadamia milk, but it was a lot lighter than I thought. It was definitely very nutty, but it also just tasted like water down latte. Honestly not much going on with the drink, but it does taste lighter in general. Crazy have to pay $1.50 more to add on this milk. Overall, its alright. I do like the natural lighting coming into the shop, but nothing too special.

(i sound like an american health influencer...oh wait i am american) however i wish my pastries were toasted. also i wish they were less sweet. the plain croissant did not have top-tier crazy bone-shaking lamination, i wish it was flakier. sorry i have a lot of wishes. unfortunately big B may not be able to satisfy them. i wish i can go back to try the black sesame one but i'm too broke and i have an astronomically low attention span so i can't wait in line

Getting a pretty basic, straight forward matcha or hojicha beverage is always a good way to tell how a store's quality of matcha is. Of course just a plain matcha like usucha is a better way of telling but I like mine with oat milk. Upon first sip of the matcha latte, I could tell immediately that the matcha quality is of very low grade. It was extremely bitter even with the oat milk which was unfortunate. I sipped on it on my walk home and once I was back, I added more oat milk to the cup. That's how bitter it was! On the other hand, the hojicha latte was quite alright. Nothing to write home about but I didn't have to make my own alterations for that one. I'd come back for a hojicha latte but definitely not for their matcha. I can make it better at home..using a high quality powder.

On my question if I can have a spoon was short "right there" not even pointing me any direction. By the time I found plastic sticks on the counter in a busy crowd handling two little kids crying for ice cream I was ready to throw it out. What a shame, I don't expect 5 star service but simply splitting ice cream, giving me a spoon or just pay any attention to me as a customer would be enough for those tips that they asked upfront. Lesson learned, never again, although we are in this mall often.
