Piña Colada Boba is a MUST…read more Vanitea Cafe never disappoints, but the piña colada boba? Next level. It's perfectly balanced creamy coconut, fresh pineapple flavor, and that smooth boba texture that ties it all together. Super refreshing without being overly sweet. It honestly tastes like summer in a cup. The vibe inside is clean and aesthetic, great spot to chill or catch up with friends. Staff is always friendly and drinks come out quick and fresh. If you're thinking about trying something different from your usual milk tea, go with the piña colada boba. Easy 5 stars every time.

After picking up my drink I said thanks have a good day, and she hit me with "yeah yeah straws and napkins at behind you." I don't think I'm asking for a lot but just being cordial is not very hard. Also $10 for a drink is pretty outrageous, but times are changing...

I was really at a loss a few months ago when they changed their recipe! I drive by this establishment every day on my way to get on the 94. I thought to myself, "one time can't hurt!" OH MY GOODNESS!!! The Chai tea ACTUALLY had TASTE! It did not taste like that new found chemical (classic) taste Starbucks apparently has pumped into my beloved drink. The customer service was bubbly and jovial! I went inside one day because the drive thru was a tad chaotic, and I saw what I believed to be the owner. He was so just, chill and carrying on with the patrons. I really hope he is cognizant and proud of his bustling coffee shop he has created. This man, is also on the headset as well. So the work ethic is there. I want to see this for a local business! This is why they THRIVE! I have never met this person, no idea of his name, I am an observer as well as being part of the food and beverage industry. I appreciate greatness. The customer service here, all around is 10/10! It took me 4 times going through the drive thru (they have a camera) , for them to know EXACTLY what I order! Crew! You actually make my day!! Shout out to Sara and Melody! Give this place a go! Oh,oh they also have a punch card! Make sure to get one! You get $5 off when you hit a certain number! (The number could be lower ;-)) Ok, I'll see you tomorrow guys :-)

New Fave Iced Coffee: The Lemon Poppyseed Shaken Espresso…read more If you are in Spring Valley/La Mesa area, you have to stop by and try this drink. I was able to peek the inside from their drive thru line and the seating and space looks very comfortable. The drive thru line itself is a huge plus for me when on-the-go before work/errands. Getting back to the drink, I did order this iced with Oat Milk and half sweet -- It is so delicious My coworkers were even surprised at how much they liked it because of the lemon. Me personally? I love anything with lemon in it. Well balanced, tasty, not too much... just right and strong to get you through the day!

When reading the reviews the only negative you're going to see is "wait time". If you know take out, you know ways around this "negative". But with that being said me and my lady ordered 2 açaí bowls and they were ready in about 12-15 minutes. Not a problem for us. You can make your own bowl or choose from pre made recipes.

We ordered the Fit açaí bowl for our friend to take home, and she absolutely LOVED it. We weren't hungry enough to get anything for ourselves, but I appreciated how the guy at the counter asked if we wanted anything drizzled on top. We chose almond butter (and silently prayed our friend didn't have a nut allergy ). Turns out, that was the best choice because she said the almonds were her favorite part. Now we're definitely curious and will have to come back to try the bowls for ourselves next time!

My husband and I split the Pineapple Coconut smoothie. He watched her make it. the sweetener was honey. He said everything was fresh. He thinks there might be some kind of gelato added to it. He doesn't know. I wish he knew because I'd like to make it at home. The location is in a strip mall with not a lot of stores. It is adjacent to the laundromat where we were doing laundry. The woman working there was muy amable. I usually never get smoothies because they are too sweet. This smoothie was on point.
