Seems to be family owned and can be easily missed unless you are looking for a boba teahouse. Make sure to stop by and show support. I ordered the peach melon green tea with rainbow jelly. I didn't know it wasn't unsweetened so if you do ask for one make sure to ask to add sweetener if you want your tea sweetened. Many varieties of flavors I haven't seen before. Everyone is very nice and welcoming! Highly recommend! read more

My boba cravings are random and are uncontrollable to the point that I have driven to Chinatown from Cypress to get my boba fix. One day I had to fill up gas before going back to my apartment by Telge and Grant. I was at the gas station and saw that there a shop in the corner of the parking lot that said something about a teahouse. This peaked my interest and I hesitantly drove there not knowing what I was getting myself into. Normally I try to make judgements about places only after I get the stuff from there but this time the place was so cute that I just couldn't stop adoring it from the moment I walked in. During the pandemic they have markers on the floor making social distancing enforcements palpable and a sign at the entrance that tells you no entry without a mask. These little things make such a big difference when you are trying to find places to go to during these times. First time I tried the brown sugar milk tea boba and while I liked the boba I forgot to mention them to keep the sweetness at 50% level. Thankfully it was so good that I drank it all before I reached my apartment in Montrose. Next time (yesterday) I got the Japanese green tea milk tea with coconut jelly (50% sweetness, I remembered this time lol) and omg. I went to get a little something sweet because I was hitting my 3 o'clock slump while working from home and it was exactly what I needed. The 50% sugar level was not too sweet and the coconut jelly created the perfect balance between the natural taste of the tea with the sweetness from the coconut jelly. Today, I was craving something a little more intense and since my mom was home I decided to get her a drink as well. This time I tried the Vietnamese ice coffee and the buckwheat milk tea. The buckwheat milk tea has similarities to the green tea except it's caffeine free. This was a perfect selling point for me because my mom doesn't drink caffeine. The tea was 25% sweetness with coconut jelly and my mom is now a bubble tea fan! The Vietnamese ice coffee is what I needed to get throughout the day. Bonus points for their reward system! You can enter your phone number and it will send you alerts letting you know how many points you have and when they are going to expire! I can't wait till I have my next boba craving when I am in Cypress because I know exactly where I'll be going to get my fix! PS I am not sure if the people working there are the owners but they are SUPER friendly and EXTREMELY helpful in trying to guide you to make a decision regarding what to order according to your preferences. read more

Bubble tea, Boba tea, or tapioca tea, etc. Its the same thing and the best you can find in the area is Here! The owner is very genuine and humble. The basic unsweetened Formosa milk tea I had and the interior design remind me of my hometown. I usually request not to add additional sugar in my drinks cuz I like to taste the tea flavor in my milk tea. However, I did not have any luck to find a decent drink until Formosa Bubble tea house. The drink I had was well balanced. read more

Great Boba however their policy on outside food, when it doesn't appear that they even serve food is ridiculous. We had a toddler with us he would not allow him to eat a kolache from next door while we sat there and ordered are drinks. Simply just because of this I will never return, that is ridiculous . If you don't care about stuff like that then I highly recommend them for their boba. read more

So my husband just visited and he calls and asked me what tea that I wanted I said peach tea with boba and I thought that was the end of it lol nope. He calls back and asked what color I wanted so I thought he's talking about boba he says do you want green or black and I'm thinking oh wow they must have a new flavor of boba. No lol green tea or black tea lol so he gets home I taste this and I thought someone put something in my tea because it tastes like bush's baked beans legit lmao. It dawned on me girl you got peach flavoring with green tea and boba am I the slowest or what. I'm like well this makes since why it tastes like this lol so I'm just drinking this enjoying my mistake. Now I know better I will be back. read more

They use sugar cane and it absolutely prevents that artificially sweet taste that you get in a lot of other drinks. These are super refreshing.

This place is a great place to hang out with friends, play some board games/card games, and enjoy a nice refreshing drink as well. I definitely enjoyed my tiger boba milk drink. The boba was a great chewy consistency and I I love milk and brown sugar mixed together. The cashier was really helpful and made sure to explain to get the best flavor out of my drink is to shake it for at least 20 seconds. I also love how at their seating areas they have a lot of outlet plugs avaliable for people to charge their phones, laptops, etc right under your seat. Would definitely recommend stopping by this place if you're nearby and thirsty! read more

Absolutely the best tea you can get in Houston, the people that own it truly care about what they do and it hasn't gone without notice. Having tried literally every tea shop in Houston, Formosa is without a doubt my favorite. Japanese Brown Rice Milk Tea and Jasmine Milk tea are my go-tos if you want a light drink! As someone who gets no-sugar everywhere I go the extra care they put into ingredients is what keeps me coming back. read more

I've had 3 different tea drinks and they have all been delicious. I even asked for a drink with less sugar and they not only accommodated me but helped me think through what I would like. Super friendly. And, I'm no tea expert but it all feels quite authentic; including the menu that has it all in Chinese. A great local, family owned replacement for Starbucks. read more

We love Formosa Bubble Teahouse. Derrick and Jerry are so nice. They'll explain all the drinks for you and help you decide what you might like off their large menu of hot and cold refreshments. While discussing the menu, I mentioned that my daughter is allergic to almond milk. The guys reassured me that they use a non-dairy "milk" that is not almond-based. Their flavors are fantastic and I think they have the largest selection of boba and toppings around. After the Great Texas Freeze, these guys delivered their milk products to people who needed it and provided fresh water from their filtration system for people who did not have clean water. Talk about a commendable company!! read more

Specialties

Formosa Bubble Teahouse is a traditional tea house that brings the taste of Taiwan with bubble tea that unleashes the ultimate refreshing taste.

History

Established in 2019.

Bubble tea originated in Taiwan during the 1980's. Commonly, black or green teas are used in making this delicious drink. Then, the drink is placed inside a cocktail shaker and shaken either by hand or a machine and pour into a cup. It is this shaking that creates a foam on top of the drink; hence the name "Bubble Tea". Today, there are many varieties of this drink with a wide range of flavors. The most popular ones are made with black or green tea, creamer or milk and are topped with tapioca pearls a.k.a "Boba". Back in Taiwan, during the old days, a teahouse was often a place where people gathered and socialized after school and work and/or on the weekends. Games were usually provided so people could entertain themselves while relaxing and drinking their favorite type of bubble tea. It is our goal to continue that tradition here at Formosa Bubble Teahouse while most importantly offering a variety of flavored bubble teas.

Today will be the final time I spend my money at this establishment. I got an automated text requesting feedback. I had a few minutes, so I obliged this time and decided to fill it out. I simply stated that "the special drinks of the day should have a price listed by them." To then receive a reply message from a different number within minutes was shocking. What was even more off putting is that whoever was replying to me wanted to be argumentative when YOU ASKED ME FOR FEEDBACK! I have never experienced this before and find it to be extremely unprofessional. I kept my review earlier short and sweet however: 1) Your sales are deceiving! For example, today was BOGO ALL drinks. So I chose one of the listed drinks on the specials board which was a lavender matcha with boba. I'm thinking I order this and one other drink, one of them should be completely free. However, that wasn't the case when I got charged 99 cents for lavender flavor and 99 cents for oat milk and 99 cents for boba. The drink is no longer FREE. This is where the confusion comes in. Every other place that has BOGO charges you for the most expensive item and then gives you the second item FREE!! It shouldn't matter how you customize it, it should still be FREE! 2) Your "manager" needs an attitude check. Each time I come in there idk the prices(because you don't list them by the specials and charge extra for everything) and she is not friendly when asked to explain things. 3) The bathrooms smell like urine EVERY time I come 4) There are always dirty tables, several workers, and very few customers. The tables should cleaned more frequently and the floor swept during downtime. 5) A lot of the games for children are sticky and gross or missing pieces. Many of them need to be tossed. I hope you take this review and improve for your current and future customers. Going back and forth with customers after requesting a review is very tacky. I truly hope you don't make this a habit. The time spent typing out a paragraph to me could have been used cleaning your establishment instead.

We waited for the grand opening to die down and make our way to sample the fares. Trying a new burger joint is a crucible with me. I start with the lowest common denominator. Cheeseburger and fries kids. Upon arrival there are 2 lanes. Outstanding for a large amount of traffic which at 6:37 PM (I am nothing if not a dork) we arrived and made our first order. Mine was the reg Cheeseburger, no lettuce, no tomato, add onions and pickles. Side of "fries". I usually customize at a fast food place to ensure a fresh made delivery, but again, for the first venture into the unknown, I adjust for the lowest common denominator. Failing to get this right is like trying to tie your shoe with both hands tied behind your back. In the dark. Darkness fell. Our lane had 2 cars in front of us. No problem correct? Problem. We waited. And as we waited for the 2 vehicles in front of us to get their food. No less than 5...yes...5 cars that came in the lane adjacent to us had come in AFTER us...gotten their food...and left BEFORE we even got to the window to pay. I was now weary. 1 vehicle was handed 4 bags of food. I get it. You ordered for a crew. Have them pull out of the lane and spot them while continuing to carry on with additional orders. Not sure if this is policy, or inexperience in industry methods. Anyway... Fortunately, Abraham greeted us at the window. A delightful young man. He greeted both me and my wife with a huge smile courtesy and even called my wife "ma'am". His parents dun good. Spotting the doggy cookies in a jar, I inquired if I may take one home for my monster king shepherd. He didn't blink an eye and grabbed one for the pup and even took time to ask questions about her. Great young man and great service, Abraham. Get a raise already. The food. Well...this is the interesting part...I don't have much to write. My wife and I actually discussed it...and for the first time...we were blank. It was just...an hamburger...from a fast food restaurant. Obviously not a "fresh cooked patty" as the experience cook can spot the dry marks of a cracked piece of ground that has been sitting there...I got plenty of pickles...about ¼ teaspoon of this "special sauce" and literally counted...4 yes...4 little squares of diced onion. I literally made my wife count them to confirm 4 little squares. No problem. With my knife skills I chopped up some at home to add on after the initial taste. Generic Sysco bun. That's literally it. It was just an fast food cheeseburger. Beats the snot out of Micky Dee's and Burger Kang, but falls short of Wendy's. My wife noted if she were caught short and just needed something for the kids...she would stop here after grocery shopping. But not a making a special trip saying "Damn...I'm CRAVING P Terry's". It was just an fast food burger. Couldn't taste the "special sauce" (mayo, ketchup, pickle juice/vinegar, salt) at all. Fries. Don't bother. They are flaccid par-cooked potato sticks with no browning or salt. 80% went in the bin. Sadly...this DID fall WAY short of Micky Dee's. Back to back taste test of the "Pterry's ketchup"...90% sure it is repackaged Heinz. Which is not a bad thing as Heinz is the superior ketchup to all ketchup. We both agreed Wendy's has a better burger and DEFINITELY better fries. But for $11 it is priced well. Just hope this location does not fold. The building is made out of solid concrete, thus the year long build and uglier than sin. Also if you have a big truck. Take the outside line or you will be hopping the curb. Someone didn't measure. Welp. I take back paragraph 6 in hindsight. I did have a lot to say...without really saying anything. This review is like that person you talk to next to the hotel bar on a business trip. You can do it for hours...and not remember a damn thing they said. Wait...did I just simile and metaphor at the same time? TLDR time kids!!! Location? It is close. It is an eye sore. And it is built like a concrete s**thouse. Meh. Staff? Amazing. Abraham, Looking at you my friend. Well done young man. Food? Utterly forgettable. At least it was reasonably priced to ingest calories when I do not feel like cooking...THERE!!! I found what I was trying to say!!! --- That only took 755ish words...Come on post Gen X-er's...learn to write. What...I don't remember a damn thing we just talked about. See what I mean? Rock solid 2 stars.

My family and I really love this place. It's always so clean and the owners always greet their customers with big smiles. They have a big menu with so many drink options and we haven't had anything that we didn't like so far!! I am also writing this review in respond to a negative review left by Danyang S. to this business. I was waiting for my order and saw what happened that day and I feel I need to step up and say something. This could have been avoided if the customers would just respect the owners and their store rules. The children were running around and the owners had to stop them several times. There are signs posted throughout the store that say no outside food and the owners reminded the two women multiple times not to eat inside their store but they deliberately refused to comply. They left food and crumbs everywhere and I can see why the owners were upset and asked them to leave. If I were the business owner I would have done the same. Don't play the victim when you are in the wrong!! The two men work really hard to make the place nice and clean and my family and I will continue to support them. It's unfortunate for this to happen but I also feel the need to speak up as the negative review that was posted was untrue. read more
