    Matcha Croffle (i shouldve said no red bean)  Banana Croffle (i wish they didnt put so much chocolate
    William V.

    Was surprised to see a Cool Tea Bar in fremont! Very solid place, nothing fancy or mind blowing but its what you'd expect. Every drink ive gotten has gave me a feeling of nostalgia. It doesnt try to do too much in a time where there are so many Boba spots that try to impress you with every little thing. There are arcade games inside, but ive never seen anyone use them. I got their thai tea and an ube croffle. I was pleasantly surprised as I was disappointed by croffles before. The cream was so good, not too sweet (one of the highest forms of compliments btw). And the croffle was soft yet firm on the outside. Their thai tea was okay, not that strong but still pretty good and light. This place is next to my MMA gym so im hoping to come here more often for their snacks and dessert. The LARGE sizes are massive!

    This family owned business, and Chloe their cashier, made my experience so much better because she really was knowledgeable on the menu and the best sellers! Even though this spot is new, they already seem to be making their mark in Fremont. Their croffles are so sweet, tasty, and fun! And they come in the cutest pig container lol! Their teas are delicious, and not overly sweet, and all natural ingredients, no syrups! And the popcorn chicken, their newest item that launched today was the perfect crisp and deliciously tender in the inside! Not dry! Def the next hangout spot, as it's super spacious inside with arcade games to keep you busy!

    After taking my son to his doctor appointment, we dropped by here to get a few drinks. We ordered pearl milk tea, roasted milk tea and red bean milk tea (all half sugar, light ice & add boba). We arrived roughly 30 min after it had opened for the day and there was only one customer in front of us but our drinks took forever to be ready. In all of the drinks, you can only taste the milk and no tea flavor (not even in the roasted milk tea drink). The boba has no flavor and it was too chewy (needs to be cooked longer). After drinking 30% of my red bean milk tea, I gave the rest to my husband. Even my son who loves boba, said the boba had no flavor so he also didn't want to finish his drink.

    Mango sauce

    Stopped by for the 2nd time and that mango sauce they have for the chicken got me in a headlock. If you like spicy and sweet get the spicy popcorn chicken and the mango sauce it is a match made in heaven. Wish they sold it by the bottle I would have it on deck at all times it's that good

    Grass jelly roasted milk tea and strawberry smoothie

    Glad Cool Tea Bar has opened a new location! I got the grass jelly roasted milk tea and the strawberry smoothie. You can adjust the sweetness on the smoothies. The drinks tasted like what I am used to from their SF Chinatown location! I will say that for the roasted milk tea, it doesn't have the strongest tea flavor (at least when it's 70% sweet), but the roasted flavor comes through nicely. I love how much drink you get with the large size.

    #1 50% sugar, Kumquat Lemon Green Tea 30% and a Chocolate Croffle
    Bob L.

    I've been to a lot of boba spots over the years, and no matter how many new places pop up or how many I try, I always find myself coming back here. It's just one of those tried-and-true, never-disappoints kind of spots. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is clean, relaxed, and easy to hang out in. Whether you're just grabbing a quick drink or staying a while to catch up with friends this place is definitely the rock in my boba rotation. My go-to order here never misses. If I'm in a milk tea mood, I always get the grass jelly roasted milk tea (it's their bestseller for a reason). And when I want something lighter and refreshing, the kumquat lemon green tea is a must. I usually go for 50-70% sweetness depending on the day since their drinks are already super well-balanced. Honestly, you can't go wrong either way. Service is quick and friendly, even when it gets busy, and the pricing feels fair for the quality you're getting. It's also a great spot for groups, especially when they offer a LARGE size or party sets. This is one of those places that delivers consistently. Good drinks, good atmosphere, and attention to quality. If you've been here before, you already know you can expect that same great experience every time. And if it's your first visit, you'll be welcomed into a spot that really highlights high-quality taiwanese milk tea.

    Visited recently and got Jasmine milk tea with boba, popcorn chicken, fried tofu, and oreo croffle. All were good and I'm happy to have this new location nearby. Owner is super nice and I'm looking forward to trying the rice bowls and other snacks.

    My favorite boba place around this side of the Bay. I always get the roasted milk tea 70% sweet with cool tea balls and it hits every time. Service is really good too and it's not crowded at all. We got the matcha egg waffle too and it's pretty light and mochi textured inside with a good crisp.

    Brown sugar milk tea, strawberry milk tea, & popcorn chicken with secret sauce.

    This was our first time trying this tea spot after the business changed. They have a lot of drinks available. Drink process range from $6-7.50. Plus $1 per topping. They also make croffles too, that are $7 each. There is a sign for popcorn chicken, fries, & something else. No pricing for that. The area is very spacious and good if you want to do some work or meet some friends. The drinks come in regular and large. Large was bigger than what I thought. We got 2 drinks and popcorn chicken and paid $27.10. Don't get 120% sweetness. The drinks come at a good sweetness level. The two people at the counter were very nice and patient. I would come back again.

    Kumquat green tea, popcorn chicken

    I've loved every drink I've gotten from Cool Tea Bar. Everything is consistently so good! The service is always great, and everyone there is friendly and welcoming. Definitely one of my favorite spots! Got a large kumquat green tea here for just $6.50--and it's a full liter (!!), which is basically unheard of in the Bay. The prices in general are amazing for what you get. The croffles are made to order, so they come out fresh, warm, and perfectly crunchy every time. A great spot to hang out or get some studying done.

    Beautiful Spacious interior!

    Authentic high-quality Taiwanese tea made fresh daily with a wide selection of drinks and flavors. Fully customizable--choose your size, sugar level, ice level, and favorite toppings to build your perfect drink. Fresh boba is prepared daily, soft and chewy in every cup. Croffles are made fresh to order, warm and crisp, and perfect as a dessert. Spacious seating available to hang out with friends--grab a drink, a dessert, and relax.

    Ordering Station

    I've been going to Cool Tea Bar for years (shoutout to the Sacramento location), so when I saw they opened one in Fremont, I was honestly so excited. And yep, it hits just as hard. What really sets them apart is the tea itself. You can actually taste the quality and it's not overly sugary or artificial like some other places. The flavors are clean, balanced, and super refreshing. I'm a huge fruit tea person, and theirs are my go-to whenever I want something light and crisp. They just taste...real, if that makes sense. That said, I have to talk about their #1 drink, the roasted milk tea with grass jelly and boba. It's SO good. It has this deep, rich flavor that's not too heavy, and the house-made grass jelly topping?? Easily a 10/10. It's soft, slightly herbal, and pairs perfectly with the tea. I literally crave it and can eat that topping alone. Also, their party packs are such a W. I've ordered them a couple times for kickbacks and they're always a crowd pleaser. Makes hosting way easier and everyone ends up asking where it's from. Overall, Cool Tea Bar has been one of my favorites for a reason. Consistent, high quality, and just really good drinks. A1 coded for sure.

    Boba Croffle

    I went here during opening day and have a lot of good things to say. First of all, their tea tastes very authentic. The owner told me that they use real tea leaves to make their drinks rather than powder. I got their roasted milk tea (best seller) and lychee milk tea which were both really good and not overly sweet. For me, 50% sweetness was perfect. Their drinks are also pretty value compared to other places! A large is only 50 cents more. I also tried their boba, banana, and Oreo croffles which they make fresh in-house. My favorite was the Oreo croffle since it has a slight crunch with the Oreo crumble. Overall, I appreciated how quick their service was in the end after ordering all of that. In addition to this, they have great ambiance and plenty of seating! Overall would recommend this chill hang-out spot if you are looking for value and high-quality milk/fruit tea drinks!

    Long overdue review since I've seen my NorCal and visiting SoCal oomfs post about Brian Black Tea…read moreand thanking Brian for his service. This is the only singular franchise location in the United States (at least as I'm writing this and has been like this for awhile), which is insane to me, considering that it was quite hyped back then and remains a favorite to many. Hopefully one day, they'll be more locations, but it's literally been years. In that case, I'll have visiting SoCal friends with me try. Simple and casual appearance. Love the wood accent on the counters and tables, along with the green walls and descriptions of the tea. There's a bit of it that reminds of what the old XFT location looks like from the RH location, but only just a little bit. You can order ahead for pick up and they're quite efficient. The only times there was even a semblance of a fisted wait, at least when I've gone, was due to orders of like 10-30 drinks for catering or an office boba run. Solid tea that's steeped really well. If you adjust for much lower sugar, you can enjoy the quality much better. I feel like with the influx of the boba wars (at least in SoCal), many of the Taiwanese franchises (Guiji, Chayan, UG, etc.) just don't have enough of a strong flavor to compete with their Chinese competitors, but Brian Black Tea, I think would be a strong contender if they were drafted in the SoCal boba wars. I've enjoyed all of their milk teas, but my favorite has always been the Era Milk Tea with the slight coffee taste to it and the Retro Milk Tea with the subtle roasted flavor and hint of cocoa to it. I usually get 25% sweet and it's perfect. NorCal must when I visit.

    I visited Brian Black Tea with a few friends to catch up also play some light Monopoly Deal…read more Finding parking here was super easy on a Sunday afternoon, and ordering was just as smooth. I had their Retro Black Tea with boba and 25% sugar - tasty! Note that enjoying the sit-in area here is a little challenging. It's good to escape the heat at the tables, but there is an awkward amount of space between them. The table organization definitely maximized efficiency at the expense of comfort. Perhaps it was the blockiness of everything, but if you're dropping by for a quick pick up, then this is a great spot for the afternoon pick-me-up!

Plenty of parking outside. When I went into the store about 2pm, it was empty. I'm pretty sure this place would be popular with the youngsters when they get off of school because they have some arcade games, drinks, & snacks. I ordered a Lychee Green Tea & Popcorn Chicken via their machine. It was easy to order on there. Then the guy asked if I would like some tokens while I wait. He gave me four tokens to use while I was waiting, and they were complimentary. I used them on the claw machines, but I didn't win anything. It was still fun and very nice that he offered me the tokens. I got my drink within about 5 mins. Very fast! Then I waited a few more minutes, and I got my Popcorn Chicken. I forgot to grab the sweet Thai chili sauce that they had some there. It was pretty yummy. A bit dry, but still flavorful though. I would definitely return again at some point to try their Cotton Candy Milk Tea one day because that looked cool! :)

ChaChaCha offers unique drinks with their iconic puff cream topping on any of their milk teas, hojicha, matcha, einspanners (original - with vanilla or hazelnut flavor), and even croffles! Love the diverse menu. I usually get my puff cream milk tea with boba from here and it never disappoints. Creamy and the tea flavor still pulls through. Their boba is also pretty solid without it being overly sweet and relatively soft / chewy. However, I got their double matcha and original vanilla einspanner. Their double matcha had a mild umami flavor and wasn't very sweet. Def more for people who are into matcha for the profile than the sweetness. Loved that matcha foam though. Their einspanner was fireeee. Slightly strong coffee flavor and I enjoyed how the milk foam topping didn't overpower the drink. Would order this again!
