Milk Tea ( Hot and Cold), brown sugar tea, matcha tea

Brittany B.

When my high school students want Boba, they will get boba. I am so grateful this boba shop was open before noon so I could make it on time for our last wellness activity of the school year. The owner was incredibly nice and the boba drinks were awesome. All of my students loved them. Will be back for sure :)

Great customer service and delicious drinks! Owner was so friendly, and everything tasted amazing. Definitely coming back!

My friend and I came here to get some milk tea to drink. It was easy to find street parking, and they're located at a corner. When we came in, we were immediately greeted. We looked at the menu and made the order there (there are kiosks). We waited at the seating in the front, and the drinks were brought to us. We got the Hokkaido Milk Tea and Hot Cocoa Milk Tea. They were very good drinks.

Yasamin M.

The house milk tea was delicious! The best one! Tommy was so kind and so hospitable! I am so glad I decided to come in :) the music is very peaceful too

Pam S.

Such a nice kind-hearted soul was the Owner. He had patience for my grandkids as they wondered OUT LOUD what they should get. They ended up with the Taro Smoothie and proclaimed it was the best Boba ever! From the few sips I had it was pretty tasty. There is seating inside with couches and I did see some people ordering actual food (I believe) parking is street parking. Respectfully Reviewed.

This is a boba shop but there's also some food here too; must try the fishballs when you come here! If you're looking for a quick snack with some boba, these are a must. Very authentic and very good!

Kate A.

Tommy the owner is super nice! He makes the best smoothies. The coconut passion with boba is yummy!

The service was phenomenal, the smoothie was delicious, the boba was tasty, honestly, all of it was memorable! What more could you ask for?

Amazing little spot right by Pasadena City college. Calm music when you enter and an enthusiastic Taiwanese owner! We tried the grapefruit lychee fruit tea with lychee and the strawberry smoothie with boba. We also tried the black sesame crunches--yummy! Parking a bit tight--just 2 parking spots in front but if you are at PCC you can easily walk over. We even got a free cell phone holder for the car!! Check it out.

Jackie R.

The reviews don't lie! So happy I gave this place a try. It's close to PCC too. Although I'm not a student there, I do work close by. This place is so cozy and welcoming. Tommy's energy is through the roof and immediately was a good vibe :D I got a mango smoothie with boba. The boba is a pretty decent size and tastes great. Will be coming back!

Great service, calming vibe inside. There is a variety of drinks and toppings without being overwhelming. The owner greeted my daughter and I warmly. It was our first time here but her made us feel like we were already regulars. Drinks were flavorful and delivered exactly as requested as I do not like too much ice or sweetness in my drink. Thank you! We will be back soon.

What an ABSOLUTE GEM of a tea/boba/coffee shop in Pasadena! Walking in, the smell of brewed tea and warm sugar just hugs you. Unassuming space, but such a warm and friendly welcome from the owner, Tommy. He exudes such enthusiasm and pride in his products that it is contagious. I ordered the HaiCha Milk Tea 50% sweet with boba, and truly, it's quite perfect. This drink is made with a blend of black and oolong teas. The tea flavor comes through the milk extremely well. The boba are perfectly chewy, bouncy, and this may sound odd, but round and slippery. You would think that all boba are this way but no. We have all had boba where the surface is sticky or squished with flat sides--like eating little gummy dodecahedrons. Ugh. HaiCha's boba are perfectly bouncy, slippery spheres, which is exactly how they should be. Tommy the owner is Taiwanese and imports all of his tea and boba from Taiwan. He brews all of his teas daily and of course, cooks the boba daily. He also makes these delicious Taiwanese snacks: coconut crunchy and sesame crunchy. Slightly sweet and full for nutty goodness! They definitely feed one's nostalgia for Taiwan. There are quite a few boba shops in the Pasadena area, and I have tried many of them. So far, HaiCha is clearly the winner when it comes to authentic Taiwanese tea and boba. It helps that the owner's love and belief in the product is so genuine. FYI: This shop opens surprisingly early, at 8:30am, every day. Apparently, there are coffee drinkers that come in for their morning Joe before work or class. I forgot to ask him when boba is ready everyday. Will ask next time!

Thiiiiiiiiiiis sweet man...we pulled up 8 minutes to close and he was *in* his car trying to go home and STOPPED his car to ask us to wait so he could come back and open up just for us OMG... He wouldn't take no for an answer, so we ordered a Mango Smoothie and a HaiCha Milk Tea (25% sweet). They really care about their customers here! As for the smoothie...these are SO much fun! Piled high like a smoothie tower. Basically two smoothies in one! A steal for the price, really. The mango flavor was nice, the sweetness level was good and not overwhelming, even at 100%. The boba are well cooked, but could use more flavor & sweetness of their own. I would try the strawberry one next time. The HaiCha Milk Tea was a great level of sweet for me at 25% (my usual order anywhere) and had a nice light tea flavor. I would try other tea flavors next time, as they had several that looked good, as well as some.black sesame crunch treats that looks snackable! I would come back here for the fun of the smoothie, especially with friends! Since he was closing, we walked across the street to enjoy our drinks in the shade outside the college and it was delightful. This is a fabulous location.

As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by an extremely nice and welcoming man! His attitude and confidence made me get the mango smoothie which was really good. It tasted fresh, and he presented it with a huge swirl which was probably the coolest thing I've seen so far for boba. The ambience is really nice too, slow relaxing music, with a couch and some seats. Fair price, and overall a great experience! He even gave use some wireless charging phone stands which is crazy. Def coming back for the smoothie. read more

There's no public restroom but there's some seating inside. I got the hoji matcha cloud ($7.45) at less sweet. The price has gone up since the last time I've been here, which is expected. I think it's still decent for the price at the cup size. The matcha is pretty strong but still has some sweetness.

Was in the area and decided to stop by for some drinks since I haven't been here in a couple years…read more They have really cool interior decor and seating is comfortable for casual chatting with friends. I ordered the Mango Cloud this time less sweet (7.42), and also the Matcha Blend. The price has went up a bit since the last time I was here but the cup is still the same size. The drinks took around 5 minutes or so to be ready. The mango cloud is as good as other reviews said. There is mango chunks in the drink and it is blended very well so it is a smoothie consistency. It also has some cream but I couldn't really taste it. I got less sweet so the sweetness level was perfect for me. I enjoyed the drink and my only complaint is the price but all drinks are around this price especially for fruit blended ones. I would recommend it if you're not looking for a matcha drink, but their matcha blend was also good as well with authentic matcha.

This location is small, efficient, and clean. Service is very friendly even though it's run only by two employees! I got milk tea with less iced and less sugar. It tastes sweet, with good percentage of milk, and pretty strong tea. There is no seat or tables, so you have to order to go - which is easy with app or in store.

Drinks gotten: -ube matcha -salted vietnamese coffee -taro milk tea w/popping boba -sunset passion w/ boba All of these drinks have been delicious so far! My favorite so far has been the ube matcha (so creamy!!) I definitely will continue coming back as they have so much variety in loose leaf blends, speciality flavors (what do you mean you have a blended neopolitan and Pina colada), and premium oolong tea! P.s their 3 for $10 deal on spam masubi/big cookie/ snacks is so fun! Their cookies have been delicious and I love how big they are, and the chips are a good salty option to eat with your tea.

I recently tried something a bit out of the ordinary--Boba Haicha Milk Tea and Eel Fish Balls--and I have to say, I'm impressed! Boba Haicha Milk Tea was a refreshing change from the usual overly sweet milk teas. The Haicha, a roasted green tea, brought a rich, earthy flavor that paired perfectly with the creamy milk. The boba pearls were soft and chewy, adding a fun texture to each sip. I appreciated that the roasted notes balanced the sweetness, making it a comforting and satisfying drink. Definitely recommend this for anyone looking for a milk tea with a bit more depth! As for the Eel Fish Balls, they were a pleasant surprise. The eel added a slightly sweet, savory flavor that set these fish balls apart from the usual ones. The texture was spot-on--bouncy, firm, yet tender. Whether you eat them on their own or dip them in a sauce, they're a must-try for seafood lovers. I could easily see these being a great addition to a hot pot too. Overall, if you're in the mood for something a little different, both the Haicha Milk Tea and Eel Fish Balls are worth a try. They each offer unique flavors that are both satisfying and memorable. You can adjust the rating or specific details based on your personal experience. read more

The most welcoming and friendly boba shop I've ever visited! Tommy, the owner, greeted me with such warmth and excitement, instantly putting a smile on my face. He went above and beyond, offering thoughtful gifts like hand sanitizers and a phone charger--it was such a kind gesture! But it's not just the hospitality that shines--the milk tea is amazing! My personal favorite is their house milk tea at 25% sweetness with extra grass jelly. The grass jelly, made in-house, has a slight firmness that I really enjoy. As for the boba itself, it's perfection! During my first visit, I was impressed by its ideal balance of sweetness and chewiness. Tommy's kindness and passion for his shop make this place a true gem. I've already gone back two days in a row, and I can confidently say this is my new go-to boba spot. 5/5 stars all the way! read more

We got the Peach & Lychee Green Tea, strawberry smoothie, and the snacks the owner had available -- everything was super delicious and the boba was the perfect texture!!! I loved the snacks, and got some for my mom too. Aside from the deliciousness of the drinks and snacks, I have to mention how friendly and funny the owner, Tommy was. This is the type of boba shop I would want to return to because it feels like I'm supporting a friend or family member. Overall amazing service :) The shop is interior is super cute too. There are tables for you to sit at, and it felt like I was at a boba shop in Asia. A very pleasant difference from other boba shops that look the same/have the same vibe. This one definitely felt more homey and cozy. Would definitely come back again and recommend to others!! read more

I've been slowly working through the boba shops in Pasadena and stumbled across this one across from PCC. Admittedly, I'm a sucker for cute logos and this one is the cutest with a seal on it, so in I went. The owner is incredibly warm and friendly and my boyfriend and I some suggestions when we didn't know what to order. I got the signature milk tea and it turned out to be a great choice! The boba was bouncy and chewy and the milk tea itself was nice and smooth. The space is cozy (though maybe a little dark on a cloudy day), but it's a really nice place to unwind. I think it'd be even more perfect in winter with a hot drink. This place is right around the corner from PCC and pretty close to the Pasadena branch library, so it's a nice place to go after class or a visit to the library. read more

This place is truly fantastic, and the service is the best I've ever experienced. The owner, Tommy, is incredibly friendly and welcomes you with enthusiasm as soon as you enter. He provides excellent assistance with the menu and remains helpful throughout your visit. Additionally, he generously gives out hand sanitizer and wireless chargers to every customer. Unlike other places, he doesn't hold back on portion sizes; any extra from the blender is added either on top or in a separate cup. Overall, it's an amazing spot, and I hope it thrives. read more

He greeted me with a big smile and went out of his way to make sure I felt at home, even offering thoughtful gifts like a phone charger. The drinks were phenomenal, with perfectly balanced flavors and the freshest ingredients. It's rare to find a place that not only serves top-quality boba but also makes every customer feel like family. read more

I rarely leave reviews, but this place truly deserves one! I was searching for a boba spot that opens early, and this was the only one available in the morning. The owner was absolutely amazing--his customer service went above and beyond. I tried the lychee fruit tea and it was wonderful! On top of that, he even gave me a gift for being a first-time customer, which was such a thoughtful surprise. I'll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend this place to everyone. Thank you, Tommy, for such a great experience! read more

Went here with a friend for the first time this afternoon to try out new Boba places, and this spot did not disappoint. I had the Roasted Oolong Milk Tea and the drink was very good and was done quickly. The shop overall had a very cozy vibe and the owner Tommy was very sweet and enthusiastic. Out of all the Boba places around Pasadena City College, this one stands out as underrated and deserving of more attention. Will definitely be coming back here and there just relax and to enjoy some quality drinks. read more

I absolutely love this boba shop! The drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced--not too sweet, just the way I like it. The tapioca pearls are soft and chewy, and you can tell they're made fresh. I've tried a few different flavors, and each one has been delicious, especially the brown sugar milk tea and the mango green tea. The shop is super clean, the vibes are great, and the staff is very friendly and always welcoming. Definitely my go-to spot for boba! read more

Great tasting boba, you can taste the refreshing tea and the milk teas are easy to drink, doesn't leave a coating in your mouth like other places.
