Tried Twinkle for the first time on Sunday and it didn't disappoint. This was the first time I've…read morebeen to a tea shop that lets you fill your own toppings after deciding what tea/drink you want. The staff will draw a line on the cup and you'll fill it with toppings (jelly, boba, basil seeds, etc) to the line, then hand it back to them for the actual tea itself! I had a mango green tea, half sweet with boba and mango jelly. The tea flavor itself was good, but next time I might even do less sugar because it was still a little too sweet. My sister got the grapefruit tea which had freshly squeezed grapefruit, made to order. It is one of her favorites and she says she always orders it when it's available. There were a few tables for seats if you want to stay and hang out! Otherwise, the staff was very kind and helpful. Will be sure to go again!

During my last visit, the boba was overly sweet and stale. The person behind the counter tried the boba and agreed, and thankfully allowed us to choose something else. The idea of personalizing your own sinkers is great. They have a such a wide variety that it feels like the combination is endless, though I usually just stick to boba, egg pudding, and grass jelly. Interior is small and a few spots to sit, but nothing draws me to stay. I usually grab my drinks to go! I'll come back to give this place another shot in high hopes it'll improve.

Nut allergy friendly, no issues with the drink I ordered…read more TL;DR: Maybe one of my new favorite boba shops in Bellaire. Time to Order: 7 Minutes with no line Partea's is an unassuming boba shop tucked away into a back corner of Dun Huang Plaza. I walked over after parking nearby. Inside, it's actually quite modern. There are photo booths (for a fee) and some tables. Only one person was working when I was there. I ordered a white peach oolong tea with 30% sugar, less ice, with boba. If I didn't know any better, I would swear that they are using a syrup or flavored sweetener. This was one of the most intense peach flavored oolong teas I've ever had. I let my friends taste and they all agreed. I sampled their Vietnamese coffee as well, which is quite a generous serving for the price, and very roasty. I will definitely be back and I hope they get more business to stay open!

Speaking of big, after food, you can ride my love DART TEA There's a Partea in my pants and you're invited. And when I say my pants, I mean in Chinatown Houston. The Partea is incomparable here, although it doesn't go all night - quite the opposite - because this tea is fresh brewed each time you order it. What could be better? Literally, they brew fresh tea for each tea drink you order. What to get: Ceylon Milk Tea, Hojicha Milk Tea What else: Everything here is excellent Located where Presotea used to be, and every bit as delicious and delightful, is one of Houston's very best boba shops. When it comes to little independent Boba shops (not part of a chain), this may be the best in Texas, or right up there. This might be the best Milk Tea in Houston. We miss Prestotea very badly, but we're glad that it has continued the tradition of making fresh tea every time you order it, and tastes just as good as ever. Partea may, in fact, have some of the best Milk Teas you'll ever taste. Easily the best little family owned independent Taiwan-style Boba shop in town, along with TeaFix, and one which you should come and give your business to on a regular basis. All their products are very good but I definitely recommend the milk teas especially. They can sometimes close a little bit earlier than posted, and their hours are pretty limited, but overall they're just a fantastic place to come and get drinks, as well as being comfy, clean, bright, cute, and usually having plenty of parking nearby. We're thrilled to have them in Houston to go with the amazing collection of other Boba shops that we are spoiled with in these parts. It's definitely one of my top 5 favourites that I've been to in this Boba-rich area, and we will be regular customers, especially for the delicious Ceylon milk tea which has one of the nicest, subtlest, and not too sweet flavors of any milk tea I've had. It's a little bit hidden away next to the Hilton Garden Inn right beside Gerry's Grill, but it makes it easy to access from the Sam Houston Parkway if you're heading north and hopefully people will flock over here and enjoy it as much as we do. The people who run the Hilton run this too. Of course, it was also amazing when it was called Preso, so here's my rhyme dedicated to the long lost Presotea and Mike, who used to run it. There are no words for me to expresso The way I feel when I visit Preso Like getting gas from Exxon (or in UK, Esso) If you wanna try it, I'll take you, lesgo Do I like it (delete as appropriate) yes/no Milk tea tea is so good good (there's an echo) Tastes more British than the Geico Gecko For Boba in Houston, it's my top reco So come and try the perfect drinks at Preso! What! Now I have to go, I have a preso ing engagement. I actually have a Partea to attend.

We ordered the Brown Sugar Milk Tea and the Creme Brûlée Milk Tea. Both are very delicious, but you feel more unhealthier when you smash a whole large sized Creme Brûlée vs the traditional Brown Sugar lol. The staff is friendly and fast. They have a few monitors for you to order your drink instead of walking up and just ordering at the cashier. I'm not used to ordering like this so it took some time especially when the menu has a bazillion items. Lots of parking and a good amount of tables and chairs to chill at.

But when I'm in town I go out of my way to "eat all the things" to take advantage of being near the Vietnamese community. I decided on trying Tea Top over other -- seemingly indistinguishable boba shops -- simply because this shop participates in the Dining Rewards Program, which allows me to earn airline miles per dollar in addition to my standard credit card points per dollar. I will say, the tea here is very good. They actually sell tea, rather than just sugar water. You can taste it. And for that, I appreciate this place. I tried their Alpine Green Tea with boba. It was good. I came back a second time to try their Wintermelon Alpine Green Milk Tea and thought it was even better! Quality drinks and I can earn additional airline miles per order? I'll be coming back. I also like that their in-store rewards program keys to your credit card so it recognizes your account and you can instantly apply small discounts to future orders every time, or save up your points to get a buck or two off an order when you feel like it.

They also open very early, so sometimes I can stop by to grab a drink before going to work.

The first time I came, there was only one cashier + multitasking for making drink. So we could order from the machine setting right at the counter. The fruit tea was more satisfying to my spouse than the milk tea to me. Actually, I think Mtea has a very good version of this fruit tea. I did come back second time for fruit tea for my spouse. I also had an order of new item - Sticky Rice. It was fine. Point to think: I understand that "Restroom Is For Customers Only." Yet, personally, I think restrooms with keys+lockers might be inconvenient to some customers. Best, Chloe
