If you want to switch up your usual boba routine, this place is highly recommended. Their drinks are consistently delicious, and the shop is always spotless. I highly suggest trying the Island Breeze, PMP, or Mango Passion--all perfectly dialed in at less sweet and less ice. They also run some awesome weekly specials, including $1.50 off specialty lattes on Wednesdays and a buy two, get one free happy hour on Thursdays. Ordering ahead online is seamless, and my drink is always waiting for me right when I walk in. Since it's located in a strip mall, parking is never an issue, making afternoon pickups incredibly quick and peaceful. Definitely check them out! read more

Solid drinks, friendly service. I came here for a yelp event as a grab and go. The cashier mentioned that the drinks run sweet so I asked for 50% sweetness for PMP and the Golden paradise milk tea. Both were enjoyable and refreshing. They have a large menu that have a lot of interesting drinks to try. I was told to get the cookie butter if you like sweet drinks. read more

There is plenty of parking in the plaza. The interior is clean and small. There are a few tables and there are kiosks. Staff was friendly and the service was good. The drinks didn't take too long to come out either. I got the dragons kiss at 0% sweetness and it was still sweet enough. It is a strawberry and dragonfruit tea with strawberry jelly which was refreshing and tasty. I like the strawberry jelly as well because it was shaped like the typical lychee jelly. I wish there was a zero sweetness option for the matcha drinks. Their strawberry shortcake matcha and Banana brown sugar matcha latte were both pretty sweet even at low sweetness. I also felt that the matcha was overpowered by the strawberry shortcake flavor. If you like drinks on the sweeter side, you will enjoy the drinks. read more

I got the Turon matcha latte because it's one of their spring items and I have to say, this drink is so delicious!!! I got this drink with less sweet, and honestly I think that was the perfect amount of sweetness for me. I tried it first without a straw with just the banana brown sugar foam on top, and I thought the drink was fairly refreshing. Then after mixing the drink, I can rlly taste the jack fruit! I'm someone who likes jackfruit so I really liked the drink! I can't say for sure how similar this is to turon, I would say that this is a delicious drink! read more

I stopped by here today because I was craving a fruit tea. This was the 2nd time I've ordered from here. They are located in a strip mall off of Santa Teresa Blvd and Blossom Hill Rd. Parking is plentiful in front of the store. Luckily when I got there, it wasn't too busy. I placed my order at the kiosk. I got the peach, mango and pineapple green tea with boba, and with less sweetness. I don't like my tea too sweet. I was hoping they had an option for no sweetness but I didn't see one. I asked the employee, who was making my drink, if she could make it without the added sweetness and she said yes. It was ready so fast. I tried it there to see how it was before I left, and it was perfect. It still had sweetness but it was probably coming from the 3 juices in the tea. There are several tables inside if you want to enjoy your tea there. I would definitely return to try another flavor, next time I'm craving a fruit tea. read more

I don't write a lot of reviews, nor do I write negative reviews (because there's already enough negativity in the world/ internet) BUT I will write a good review for a small business with good service/ products that you should support! That said, I stopped by today and ordered something I wouldn't normally order (but since it was a seasonal special, I figured why not?): the halo halo smoothie! Folks, we are living in an Ube era. What a time to be alive! Since ube has gone mainstream, companies have tried and failed (looking at you, Starbucks), but this was delicious! As a Filipino, I approve of this take on the quintessential Filipino dessert. This really captures the essence of halo halo. We also added boba. It was :::chef's kiss::: I will also add that I am from the Eastside where boba shops run aplenty, so I know good boba (RIP Tea Lyfe). I haven't found many good boba spots on the Southside, so it was nice to find this spot. I complimented the staff and learned that it was a Filipino-Vietnamese family owned business! Support this local, AAPI family owned business! And if you order the halo halo smoothie, add boba (you're welcome in advance). read more

Noelle's Yelp Notebook 2025 August 6, 2025 Fruitea Refreshers is located in the Main Street Shopping Plaza in San Jose, California. Nearby you'll find Westfield Oakridge Mall and In and Out Burger. Parking is easy peasy!!! Customer service is friendly and helpful :) The inside of the shop is clean, comfortable and spacious. The air conditioning felt good on the hot day that I visited. I came here for a Yelp Elite Event and then decided to do a separate order and purchase drinks for my family. I ordered the following Strawberry Shortcake Matcha Arabica Vietnamese Coffee Coconut Rush All the drinks were delicious and refreshing. You could tell they were made with quality ingredients. I met the owners and they are kind and friendly. They might sell savory snacks in the future. What would make this a 5 star yelp experience is if they had snacks. Definitely check Fruitea Refreshers if you're in the area. Great mom and pop spot :) support small businesses! Love in 2025, sweet noelle Noelle's Notes Good drinks Good customer service Sign up for loyal rewards Easy peasy parking Accepts Apple Pay No cash transactions read more

Perfect day for this very refreshing halo halo smoothie. I enjoyed the different textures in there. The sweetness should have been adjusted to 50% since it was too sweet for me. The cashier was pleasant & helpful. The drink was made within minutes. I would definitely come back to try the signature milk tea drinks. read more

Kinda hard to find, but it is located in the huge Blossom Hill Shopping Plaza next to Foodmaxx. Fruit drinks are my favorite here. Ordered the Pom Twist. It's best with Aloe Vera. It's a small mom and pop shop and you order on a Kiosk. They have milk teas, Slushies, Refreshers, Matcha, and a seasonal menu. I go here for the fruit drinks! read more

I came here earlier in the week for a Yelp Elite Event to try this place out, and then we had to come back again during the weekend! I think that's the fastest I ever tried a place again after a YEE! They have a good selection of different beverages. I tried the watermelon refresher with coconut this time. I ordered it with no sugar, and it was sweet enough with the coconut boba in the bottom. Really delicious and refreshing. Service is really fast. This is a nice cute place to sit and drink, either outside or inside. Very easy to park here. read more

Fruitea Refreshers has taken over Teapresso with a new menu of interesting flavor combinations and classics under a fun spin on drink names. Store has been renovated. It's clean and bright. It is a small store, 5 tables with 2 seats each. There is one table and a couple seats outside of the store in the shade (depending where the sun is at and time of day). The staff were attentive and kind enough to refer me to their printed copies of the menu to view rather than looking up at their board while I'm waiting in line. My neck thanks you. Ordered quite a few drinks to take home. My green slushy wasn't sealed properly. So when I had inverted the cup to shake, a bit had spilled out. Drink quality varies depending on the drink. The milkteas were a little bland; the tea flavor seemed mellow. The slushies were well recieved by the kids. read more

Fruitea refreshers is located in a really big plaza so parking shouldn't be an issue. I bought the strawberry shortcake matcha (whole milk, less sweet). It tastes creamy and I can definitely taste the flavor. If you guys decide to get this id recommend trying less sweet before diving into 'regular sweet'. Customer service is very friendly. The inside is very cozy and decor is very clean and minimal. There are qr codes at every table if you want to order that way or you can use a self order kiosk to ofdwr your drinks. However if you're like me and want a personal 1:1 experience you can just go up to the front desk and order. Asking for recommendations for drinks on the menu is upon requests. read more

5 stars These drinks were actually so good. I got the cookie butter latte and the matcha and both hit. The cookie butter one was sweet and creamy and the matcha was smooth and refreshing. Only thing was when you walk in there is a foul odor but honestly the drinks made up for it. I'd still go back for sure. read more

Pretty average new boba spot, with some smaller issues to work out. Banana Brown Sugar Matcha Latte w/ Boba (3/5) - Starting off with the boba because I heavily deduct based on boba. Slightly my fault for coming ~50 minutes before close since I know it's usually a time that most smaller boba shops don't have fresh boba, but, as usual, old soggy-ish boba sucks. Banana cream/topping actually pretty solid, matches similar flavors from some of my other favorite banana matcha spots like Aroma/Haiku. Matcha itself, kind of a bit weaker which was not as fun. So I appreciate, not being hounded with 90% ice and 10% drink, but there needs to be a balance, as the drink basically came lukewarm with no ice to help it cool down into a nicer temperature to drink. Ambiance is a bit nicer/more modern than what Tleaf Teapresso had, although that may just be due to the holiday decor. Pricing is a bit high, although the sizing does match the pricing a bit nicer than most spots so this is a hit or miss for me. Overall I think it's just a matter of trying them out at a better time that they have fresher ingredients. read more

New tea shop in the neighborhood. There are a couple of tables outside for mild San Jose weather. Also some seatings inside to visit with friends over some refreshments. It's a social thing. BTW, there is a restroom inside. I ordered the Banana Brown Sugar Matcha Latte. It has a strong enough matcha taste; banana creaminess blends in nicely, a delicate flavor as it should be. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it. read more

I was really intrigued when I saw they had a banana brown sugar matcha latte on their menu, so I had to come try it! I chose to add brown sugar boba to mine. Overall the taste was good and the banana crema was fresh and tasted like actual banana (not chemicals). The brown sugar boba wasn't quite what I was expecting, so I think next time I'll try their regular boba instead. This place was clean and service was quick. Will definitely come back again! read more

I was really intrigued by their matcha drinks. We got three items (although none were their popular fruit teas): 1. Strawberry shortcake matcha latte 5/5 - I love the creme on top and the strawberry had a good flavor 2. golden paradise 3.75/5 (brown sugar milk tea) - I chose my drink to be "less sweet" but it ended up being too sweet probably because of the brown sugar. I'd opt for the oolong milk tea next time 3. banana brown sugar matcha latte 4.5/5 - I liked that this was a unique spin on typical banana milk matchas although it had a coffee aftertaste (probably from the brown sugar?) I thought their matchas were better but maybe it's just because the Golden Paradise drink was a tad sweet for my preferences. read more

A friend invited me to come here to try their unreleased strawberry shortcake matcha. We also ordered the brown sugar banana matcha and house matcha latte. I would give their matcha drinks a 3/5. It's not the best matcha (I would rate it lower than other matcha places in the bay), but it's not the worst either. All matchas ordered were regular sweet. The brown sugar banana matcha strongly tasted of brown sugar at first, but as I drank the rest of the drink, I slowly tasted the banana and the drink evened itself out. It grew on me and is pretty good! The house matcha was also decent, nothing really stood out to me. I really enjoyed the thickness of the drinks and appreciate that they were not watered down. Added a star for that! The strawberry shortcake matcha was good! It has a slightly artificial strawberry taste, but overall the drink was still good. It definitely tasted like strawberry shortcake. It was a little sweet for me, if i order it again I'll definitely order it less sweet. The inside of the store is cute and small. Menu is displayed on a TV and there are ipad kiosks to order. There is an option to order at the counter. Seating available inside and outside. read more

This review is solely for the melon matcha. Given the name, I'm sure they specialize in more fruit tea drinks so I completely understand! Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan on the melon matcha (50% sugar). The melon flavor was artificial, and the matcha was not very strong. The drink was also a little too sweet even with less sweetness. I would give the drink 2 stars, but I didn't want to rate this place low as maybe the other drinks are better, plus the service is good and so are the employees! read more

Came here for some drinks since we noticed that the name of the place has changed. Since it was different, we were hoping it was better since the previous shop wasn't good. Sadly we were wrong. We ordered a Vietnamese Coffee and Melon Matcha. We're not sure if this shop is Vietnamese-owned but their Vietnamese Coffee was terrible. It wasn't strong, it was barely sweet, and it was so watery. Then again, shame on us for getting a Vietnamese Coffee that's not at a Vietnamese Coffee shop. The Melon Matcha was also not good. There was barely any matcha taste and the melon flavor completely overpowers the matcha flavor. Both our drinks were also so watery. After a few sips, we ended up just throwing our drinks away and going to a different shop to get replacement drinks. Sorry to say we wouldn't come back. read more

I love the seasonal menu for fall so much. The matcha at Fruitea Refreshers always has depth in its earthy flavors which I love. I'm a huge fan of their new pumpkin pie matcha latte that has their speciality cream with bits of biscoff cookie on top. It's bold in pumpkin flavor but not too overpowering as you can still taste the matcha. The cookie butter latte is also amazing. It's nutty with a note of rich espresso that's balanced with the generous amount of cookie butter around the cup. Fruitea Refreshers never fails to amaze me with their line ups and I highly recommend trying their fun seasonal drinks! read more

You got to love a small business. Happy to have the opportunity to try one of the drinks here. Parking was super easy as it was in a plaza. All the workers were super friendly! They helped answer my questions about the drinks. Mango passion with boba: 4/5, I loved how the tea flavor was still strong and it wasn't overpowered by the fruit flavor. Sometimes the tea flavor can get watered down at some places and that makes the drink overly sweet. The boba was also made perfectly. It was sweet and had a nice chewy texture. read more

Go. support. local. This family-owned small business makes a great drink! I stopped by around 12pm on a Wednesday. There was only one staff member at the time of my arrival, so orders admittedly took a long time to make. I felt bad for the people waiting after me, but a second employee eventually did clock in and help out. I did order a customized drink: a regular sized banana brown sugar matcha latte with light sweetness, 2% milk, boba, and creme brulee. I could see the solo staff member in the kitchen putting in work. For example, it appeared that the matcha was ceremonial grade since he was using the chasen to mix the matcha in water. For some reason I thought the creme brulee was going to be more like flan chunks or mixed in the drink. Their creme brulee was a custard foam, which the server had to hand torch. I totally appreciated the attention to detail and the care that went into making my drink. I ended up really enjoying it and would be happy to try their actual tea refreshers in the future. read more

For all you boba enthusiasts, this place is mid. It's a new place and wanted to give it a chance. Once I saw the syrup pumps, I knew this place was going to taste very sweet and I was correct. They have weekly deals for matcha and bogos Ambiance: walked in and immediately the place smelled like a casino. It's a small space to chill in Island breeze (3/5): ordered with less sweet and my goodness was it SWEET. Tasted pretty syrupy. My friend ordered a matcha drink, they said it was a 3/5 as well. Tastes kinda funky they mentioned. Personally, I wouldn't come back again. If you have pretty low standards for boba, this would be alright with you. It's pretty much on par with tastea in terms of quality. read more

From the minute they opened, I've been wanting to come try their matcha for a while and am so happy I finally did! They have new seasonal flavors out, so I couldn't decide between the melon matcha or banana matcha. The worker was so sweet and gave me a sample of the melon matcha, which I ended up ordering. Honestly, such a perfect summer drink. It was light and refreshing and my only qualm is that I drank it so fast!!! I'll definitely come back to try their other matchas and fruit teas. So glad this is in the South Bay! read more

Starting with the Kiosk availability to order, it allows us to take our time to look at our options and customize our order. Place is clean with friendly staff. I'm obsessed with the Strawberry Shortcake Matcha Latte If you don't drink matcha you can't comment to understand their matcha is legit ! The color and taste are on point ! The honey bobba is perfect texture and flavor. Golden Paradise is the basic Milk Tea everyone likes so can't go wrong with this option ! Double Ube is also one of my faves it is type of creamy They also have coffee....which is a cool blend of classic Vietnamese coffee with seasonal flavors. I tried the Cookie Butter Espresso Latte ! You can actually taste the coffee, foam and the crunchiness of cookie...just amazing mix....i dared to add bobba to my coffee... why not I do recommend it specifically as frequent customers we get to enjoy their rewards program read more

Matcha was pretty good, usually when I go to boba shops, I rarely order a matcha because I am worried it wont taste as good! However, This matcha isn't that. The matcha flavor is light (not forward), a bit of bitterness but nothing too crazy. For a "boba shop" this matcha is great, if you like your matcha on the sweeter side, I recommend regular sweet. They also have $1.50 off all Matcha on Wednesdays & and "Thirsty Thursday" Happy Hour at 3-6 (Buy 2 Get 1 free) on Thursdays read more

Self-service kiosk for ordering. Our drinks were prepared quickly and efficiently but we were also the only ones there. Oolong milk tea and house matcha latte were good. I ordered the matcha less sweet and it was just the right amount of sweet for me. Wasn't sure about the salted crema on top but it didn't detract or enhance the drink. Would have preferred the option for no milk with the oolong tea. Boba was a firmer than I like it but bf liked it just fine. We would return if we're in the area. read more

My review had to with customer service. Picked up my Door Dash order on March 18,2026 at 1:46PM. The place was empty . There were 2 employees one Asian girl and one Caucasian who sitting at the front with his laptop. Came in and I greeted them, "Hi, I'm here to pick up my order for ..." They both looked up at me, stared and said nothing , Asian girl handed me order just looked at me when I said "Thank you". Neither one smiled or said a peep but had a bored look on their face. Weird. That had been the most strangest encounter . Perhaps do better with customers service . My brown sugar boba was okay nothing special. read more

I urge anyone looking to support local, Asian-owned and family-owned businesses to look no further. This place is a MUST for fruit tea fanatics and matcha enthusiasts. Fruitea Refreshers has unique, handcrafted drinks you cannot find anywhere else and a self-guided kiosk that provides visual aids and descriptions of each drink. For those who are introverted such as myself, you can skip the line altogether and order on their website! Coupled with their unparalleled recipes is their exemplary customer service. From the moment of entry, I have been greeted with a warm smile which seldom occurs in most boba places I have visited in the Bay Area. I shortly became acquainted with the manager who kindly suggested the House Matcha Latte with Salted Cheese Foam and Dragon's Kiss which I often find myself craving these days. While comfortably seated and reading my book, one of the bobaristas personally delivered my drink to me and thanked me for supporting their business. Within the hour that I was seated and enjoying my drinks, I saw the owners delivering drinks to other customers in my vicinity. It was pleasing to know that this is common practice among the staff here at Fruitea Refreshers. Although I am not a resident of the Bay Area, I am a frequent visitor. Fruitea Refreshers is officially added to my list of pit stops, and I will definitely be back soon to help me survive this summer! read more
